Renzi Volume Chapter 333: Forced into the palace, seeking solution
Yuanchun looked at Feng Ziying with a complicated expression. She understood clearly what Feng Ziying's court spirit was. It was not just as simple as Feng Tang of the Feng family leading the army, but the foundation of the entire scholar group, and Feng Ziying, as one of the best, naturally
Have this confidence
"Ziying, why did you ask me to cooperate with you?" After a long time, Yuan Chun said quietly: "Since you don't even bother to get involved in the fight for the throne among the kings, why do you want me to come...?"
"Two reasons. Although it is the principle to share the world with the scholar-bureaucrats, there are still many variables brought about by unexpected factors when it comes to individuals. For example, during the period of the Supreme Emperor, who was in power for forty years, the early stage, the middle stage, and the late stage, the accumulated prestige, even if
The civil servants were dissatisfied with his policies, but they could not resist and could only compromise. This directly led to the current difficult situation of the Zhou Dynasty. The extravagant spending in Jiangnan led to huge financial consumption, the corruption of officials, the barrenness of the northwest and the death of eagles.
The predicament in the Northeast, the rise of Jianzhou Jurchen, and the delay in reforming the land in the Southwest are all the consequences of the Supreme Emperor's period to a certain extent. Therefore, we hope for a less stubborn emperor, who can also make the emperor and his officials
Get along more harmoniously,..."
Feng Ziying explained patiently,
Yuanchun's eyes flashed, "So, the princes in the court still haven't made a decision on who to choose as the successor?"
"Theoretically, the emperor is just in a coma. It is up to the emperor to decide on the succession, and the cabinet will give suggestions. But now the emperor is unable to see things, so he can only wait. Even if the princes in the court have some preferences, they will not express them easily.
exposed
Come on, in this situation, everyone still has a chance. If the emperor really can't wake up, then the cabinet ministers and the officials of the seven departments will definitely decide who succeeds. But if the emperor can wake up, then the cabinet will only
The right to make suggestions and decisions still rests with the emperor, so the princes will definitely not give up at this time, and their mothers and concubines will not give up just yet."
Feng Ziying said it very easily, which made Yuan Chun very uncomfortable. It was so related to the change of the throne of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
He said it in a casual manner, and his tone seemed to be filled with an indescribable calmness.
Think about the people in the palace who would make a fuss over the slightest disturbance, just like hedgehogs, with their quills ready to give each other a fatal blow.
Comparing these two things, Yuanchun felt an indescribable feeling of fatigue and loss. It seemed that everything he had pursued and fought for in the past seemed so ridiculous. In other people's minds, it might be a trivial matter that had nothing to do with the overall situation.
At this time, Feng Ziying found it difficult to grasp the complicated changes in Yuanchun's mood. He could only roughly feel that Yuanchun seemed to have lost interest all of a sudden, and his spirit became quite obsessed. However, he did not know what the reason was.
"I understand. The ministers in the cabinet will not express their opinions easily. If the emperor cannot wake up, then they will fight for it relentlessly. But aren't the ministers in the cabinet afraid of affecting the stability of the court?" It took a long time in Yuanchun to force himself to support himself.
Cheer yourself up and ask with some hope,
However, Feng Ziying seemed to be unaware of it and said to herself: "Affect the stability of the DPRK? Why do they affect the stability of the DPRK? If they really have this ability, they don't need to rack their brains to compete for the position of supervising the country. Look at this again
What does the position of supervising the state mean in the court? It's just a clay puppet, just a decoration."
His contempt was laced with disdain, and his straightforward words made people tremble with fear, but Yuanchun knew that this might be the truth.
"In that case, what else do you need me to do?" Yuanchun said a little lonely,
"Qiu Shi'an said something to me, and I think it makes sense. Maybe I don't care much about it, but from the Feng family and my father's side, maybe we need to consider a longer term. After all, my father is a military commander.
, and taking charge of the army, once the rebellion in Nanjing is suppressed, the Northwest Army may have lost its meaning in the minds of the princes, and it may be possible to suppress it and use various methods to weaken this army, so that the princes in the DPRK
Only then can I feel at ease." Ma Ziying smiled and said.
Yuan Chun was startled, and his eyes searched Feng Ziying: "Ziying, what do you mean by this?"
"Don't you understand, young lady?" Feng Ziying has said so many heart-breaking words before, so naturally she doesn't care about this anymore, "There is some conflict between the interests of the Feng family and my identity, or the identity of my father.
There is some contradiction with my identity. I am a civil servant, and I have a bright future. My father is a warrior, and now he has become a very popular minister. Once Jiangnan is pacified, the court will definitely weaken the power of the warriors, not only for my father, but also for all warriors. My father
You must want to retain as much power as possible. After sitting in the position of governor, with a lot of soldiers and horses in your hands, you naturally hope to do it for a longer time. You also want to give a gift to the brothers who follow you to life and death.
To give a better explanation, this inevitably involves a game, a civil and military game. At this time, the emperor is very important as an arbiter..."
With the current situation in the palace, as long as Yuanchun is not seeing the family, she will understand that whoever she hugs will be a scapegoat.
Whether Su Lingli or others, they would only treat her as a character who could be sacrificed at any time. She just used these words to report. People believe it or not, but she would never get any benefit. That's it.
Simple, because his identity limits Yuanchun to a stepping stone type of character.
Jia Yuanchun's heart was pounding. Is the Feng family going to rebel? It doesn't seem to be the case, or maybe he has misunderstood it.
Feng Tang wants to give an explanation to his subordinates. It can be understood that he wants to add another level of yellow robe, so that he can naturally give a better explanation to his subordinates. However, it can also be understood that he wants to obtain more benefits from the court for his subordinates.
Military generals, such as waist sealing and promotion, but the meaning in these words is so exciting that people can't help but think about it.
Especially since Yuanchun was in the palace, he was naturally more sensitive to such words.
After calming down, Yuanchun couldn't help but lick his dry lips, and his voice became hoarse and low: "You mean you want to influence the future emperor to make a decision that is beneficial to your father?"
"That's pretty much what I mean." Feng Ziying smiled, "This is not a secret that cannot be told to others. Everyone knows it. Even the ministers in the cabinet know that my father will definitely think so and work hard in this direction. My father is sure
Not only do you work hard in the palace, but you also have to lobby the princes in the court. Big girl, please don’t be too naive to think that this is a treasonous act. Well, this is normal. Don’t treat others for yourself.
It's natural for my father to have such an idea. The influence in the palace is only one aspect, and it also depends on whether any Fu son will sit on the throne at that time. If the current status is maintained, it doesn't make much sense.
, the decision-making power is still in the hands of the cabinet ministers."
Feng Ziying's understatement and taking it for granted once again made Yuan Chun feel incredible. She also felt that her usefulness in the palace was being diluted before it was even fully realized. This made her a little tearful.
Yuanchun finally calmed down, and she realized that the world was really too complicated, and her understanding of the many disputes in the palace was still too superficial. The various battles in the palace were actually closely related to external affairs, and it could even be said that in the palace
Fighting is just a continuation of the external game. Who comes to power ultimately depends on whose views prevail among the external princes. The goal of the battle in the palace is mainly to establish a better image for the kings among the princes at court.
, or in other words, each can establish closer ties with the princes of the DPRK and China in terms of future governance, interest disputes, etc., so that they can support each family.
Seeing the changing expression on Yuan Chun's face, Feng Ziying understood that her feelings were greatly impacted at this time. He could understand and comforted her by saying: "Big girl, many things are connected with each other. Likewise, as the situation changes,
Times have changed, and there are a lot of variables here. So, take precautions. Since Qiu Shian is willing to work for me, I am also happy to see it happen. For him, it can strengthen his position in the palace and in the future.
I can also gain influence from the influence around the emperor. This kind of benefit is mutual, so why not?"
"What about me? What role will I play? Where is my future?" Jia Yuanchun's tone became colder.
This question is really difficult to answer, mainly because Feng Ziying doesn't quite understand how far Yuanchun's mentality has changed, or he is not sure what Yuanchun wants now.
It seems that Yuanchun has clearly seen something behind the scenes. It turns out that what she wants may not be what she wants now.
Yes, her emotional outburst before proved this,
"It depends on yourself." Feng Ziying thought for a while and said: "If you still want to gain a place in the palace and maintain your self-esteem as before, then with my support and Qiu Shi'an's help, it will be easy.
I can do this, and I also hope you can help me. Look at Qiu Shi'an. I am a foreign minister after all, and it is not that convenient. Qiu Shi'an may want something from me, but not all interests are consistent with mine, so I need to master
Understand whether he will harm the interests of me and the Feng family on some issues."
"What if I don't want to be who I am?" Jia Yuanchun breathed a little faster, and his eyes became more and more dazzling, looking directly at Feng Ziying: "I am tired of the current life in the palace. I hate it from the bottom of my heart. I regret that I knew how to do it in the past.
I accept the arrangement at home, I just want a safer and more comfortable life, is that okay?"
Feng Ziying was forced into a corner. People were talking about this. What should she do? But she was not that capable now. She was covering the sky with just one hand. This was in the palace. No matter how little Yuanchun was not taken seriously, she was still a noble concubine.
