Volume C, Chapter 93, Unknowingly Great People

 When Niu Jizong said this, Wang Ziteng was slightly moved.

During the Western Expedition to counter the rebellion, he served as the governor of Xuanda, and mobilized troops from Shanxi and Datong towns. The results of this battle were brilliant. Of course, it was inevitable that Chai Ke would be promoted to Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War when he returned. As Feng Tang, the number one military general, the imperial court

There must also be a reward.

Chai Ke will come back sooner or later. Wang Ziteng also speculates that if he does not serve as the governor of the three sides, Feng Tang may be promoted to the governor of the three sides. To be honest, he also thinks that for now, Feng Tang may be the governor of the three sides.

The best person to clean up the mess in Sanbian and Four Towns is more suitable than himself, and he doesn't want to go to that ghost place in Sanbian at all.

But no matter what, if Feng Tang is promoted to the governor of the three sides, then Feng Tang will be promoted to the top figure in the martial arts like himself, even Niu Jizong and Chen Daoxian will be inferior.

But that's all secondary. The key is that this time the Feng family's elder brother is so brilliant.

He left the grassland to persuade Bu Shitu, entered Ganzhou to turn the tide and withstood the rebels' offensive, and finally single-handedly convinced Liu Baichuan's subordinates to stop, which directly shattered Liu Dongyang's dream of separatist control of Ganzhou.

This contribution is so great that even if he is just a commoner, the court cannot ignore him and must give him a heavy reward. Otherwise, who will be willing to work for the court in the future?

Now Niu Jizong suddenly talked about Feng Ziying, and mentioned his leader and mentor Qiao Yingjia, but in fact he also had another mentor - Qi Yongtai, who was about to be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, both of whom were outstanding figures among the imperial sergeants Lin Wenchen.

, if Feng Ziying is willing to come forward to help, maybe it can really give the Ma family a glimmer of hope.

"I heard that the Feng family man has been in and out of Wenyuan Pavilion frequently in the past few days. Both the first and second ministers, Ye and Fang, have summoned him. Master Zhang, the Minister of the Ministry of War, also invited him twice to the Ministry of War Gongxing to discuss matters. This

This kid has become the darling of all the princes in the court." Chen Ruiwen couldn't help but sigh, "Ziteng, when he just passed the exam two years ago, how could you or I have thought that he would have such a good fortune?"

"Well, it is said that Chai Ke particularly admired him, and this time he was specially asked to come back to report to the court and the emperor on the Western Expedition and the Counter-Rebellion Campaign. How can ordinary people have this opportunity?" Hou Xiaokang also nodded in agreement.

Ma Shang was surprised, happy and worried.

The year before last, when the Feng family celebrated their son's success in the examination, he only received a gift and did not go there. He also felt that Wang Ziteng was making a fuss out of a molehill. Even if Feng Tang became the commander-in-chief of Yulin, he would only be sent to the remote areas.

Far inferior to the former commander-in-chief of Datong.

Unexpectedly, in just two years, this son has grown to a level that cannot be ignored and has become a big shot, not even relying on his father.

"Zi Teng, I don't have much contact with the Feng family, and I'm not familiar with the Feng family's elder brother. Could you please ask Zi Teng to soften your cheeks..." Ma Shang's eyes fell on Wang Ziteng's face.

Wang Ziteng also felt a headache. He is now the leader of Wu Xun. Since he is a leader, he must assume the responsibilities of a leader. If something happens to someone, you have to come forward to plan and solve it. Otherwise, you will be a leader.

This is no longer true.

However, the Ma family had caused such a big trouble, and they were not very friendly with me on weekdays. Now when something happened, they would come to me to find a way to help. Wang Ziteng was also a little resentful.

It would definitely not work if he didn't come forward, but his current status is also relatively sensitive, and he is inferior to those who are idle at home like Chen Ruiwen and Hou Xiaokang, which makes him hesitate.

Seeing that Zi Teng looked troubled, Ma Shang became even more anxious, like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw. He stepped forward and bowed: "Zi Teng, our family has done something wrong in this matter. Ma Xia is my brother. I

As an elder brother, I must take responsibility, but for the sake of the hundreds of members of our Ma family, we cannot drag down several of us just because Ma Xia lives in one room. If we can save our Ma family, Ma Xia

There will be rich rewards for the family,..."

Niu Jizong and Chen Dao first exchanged glances, frowned, and finally Chen Dao coughed dryly: "Brother Guoshang, I'm afraid it's not that the prince doesn't want to help, but that his identity is too sensitive now. Niu Gong and Chen are the same, and they really want to help.

Brother Guo, as Brother Guo said, we are all from a martial arts family, and we are in the same spirit. Even if we have some disagreements, it is just a trivial dispute. I will definitely help if I can help at this time.

But if a few of us intervene, it might be counterproductive and make the imperial censors think that our martial arts are united, and even make the emperor think that we are too big to lose..."

As soon as Chen Daoxian's words came out, Chen Ruiwen and Hou Xiaokang nodded repeatedly, and Hou Xiaokang said bluntly: "Now Long Jinwei must be keeping a close eye on the princes and the others. If he intervenes rashly, I am afraid that the gain will outweigh the loss."

They have also realized this. Originally, the Wu Xun family has a close relationship with the Supreme Emperor and has only a weak relationship with the emperor. Now that the court is going to investigate and deal with the Ma family, you Wu Xun who hold military power will jump out.

They will be even more fearful, and the imperial censors may have their minions on these people, and then they will really get into trouble.

An expression of despair appeared on Ma Shang's face, and even the veins on his neck burst out, "What should we do?"

Chen Ruiwen hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Enhou, Cunzhou, as far as I know, your son has a close relationship with the Feng family's eldest son, and the Feng family's eldest son often comes in and out of your house. If Enhou and Cunzhou can smooth things over, or let them

My son can also help soothe his cheeks, maybe..."

Jia She and Jia Zheng looked at each other.

They didn't expect that they were standing here like a transparent person, just listening with a pair of ears, but in the end they could still play a role, even a key role.

This made Jia She and Jia Zheng feel excited and scared, but also a little worried.

Does the Jia family have the ability to get involved in such matters?

Don't make it self-defeating. Not only does it harm the Ma family, but also involves your own family, then it will really cause big trouble.

Wang Ziteng also hesitated.

He is very clear about the abilities of his brother-in-law. If he is a pedant, then Jia She is also useless. He only has money in his eyes. Jia Lian may be slightly better. Baoyu seems to be studying in the past two years, but if he has to carry this kind of

The matter is probably not going to work.

When Jia She Jia Zheng saw everyone's eyes gathered around him, he quickly stood up and said, "If we two brothers can contribute to such a big matter, we will naturally be shouldering the responsibility, but..."

His eyes fell on Wang Ziteng, and Wang Ziteng could only wave his hand: "Enhou, Cunzhou, you guys sit down first."

"Prince!" Ma Shang couldn't help but want to call him "Prince."

"Well, Brother Guoshang, I have my own thoughts on this matter." Wang Ziteng reluctantly explained to him, "But we need to discuss it carefully. The status of the Feng family is also very sensitive. If we approach you rashly, I'm afraid he may not agree."

Such confidential matters..."

After pondering for a while, Prince Tengcai asked: "Hou Enhou, Cunzhou, if you want to think about this matter, please invite the Feng family's eldest son to come and sit in your house, how about it?"

Jia Zheng glanced at his brother Jia She before he stood up and said: "Second brother, the Feng family's eldest son has made an appointment to come to the house the day after tomorrow, but we don't know what to do..."

This kind of intercession was difficult to control, so Jia She and Jia Zheng felt a little embarrassed.

Wang Ziteng also knew that this was a bit embarrassing, but he couldn't intervene directly. It would be safer to operate with personal relationships such as the Jia family that are not closely related to the court. Otherwise, as Hou Xiaokang said,

Being targeted by Captain Long, Feng Ziying was naturally not afraid that she would be in trouble.

"Enhou, Cunzhou, it's better to wait for Feng Ziying to come and find an opportunity to talk to him about today's situation. Don't talk about anything else. Just ask the court to give him a lighter sentence...

"

Wang Ziteng pondered for a moment, "Needless to say about Ma Xia, I'm afraid he can't control even his house. As long as he can control the other rooms of Ma's house from being too involved, even if he loses some money and property, it's okay.

acceptable,……"

Ma Shang nodded repeatedly, "Enhou, Cunzhou, the prince is right. You don't need to worry about Ma Xia. As long as we can keep our few houses, everything else is easy..."

Jia She and Jia Zheng definitely couldn't listen to Ma Shang, but they had to listen to Wang Ziteng's words, and they also knew that Wang Ziteng would not harm them.

Jia Zheng nodded again: "In that case, let's wait until the day after tomorrow when the Feng family's elder comes, and we will find an opportunity to talk to others, but..."

Wang Ziteng nodded knowingly: "Let's talk about it. I guess Feng Ziying will not express his position easily. If there are not three or five rounds, it is rare for there to be a result... In addition, the Supreme Emperor may have to talk about it."

As soon as I said that, when Brother Jizong and Dao Xian arrive, they can come with me tomorrow and ask him to say hello to the Emperor..."

As for how to discuss things privately, we have to talk about it again.

On the way back from the palace, Jia She kept thinking about it. It wasn't until he got out of the car that Jia She suddenly stopped Jia Zheng and said, "Second brother, if anything happens to the Ma family, is it also the Ma family's business? We don't have much contact with each other."

In the past, the Ma family did not pay much attention to our Jia family. Although this time he had the intention of his brother-in-law, Ma Shang also said that there will be a generous reward. Our Jia family still has to take some risks if we get involved in such matters.

And those who have some favors..."

When Jia Zheng heard this, he understood what his brother meant, which was to get some money out of the Ma family. He suddenly looked embarrassed: "Brother, how can I talk about this kind of thing?"

"Second brother, our Jia family has a big business now, with thousands of people, and everyone eats horse chews. The business has been sluggish in the past two years. The weather in Zhuangzi has not been good for the harvest. I heard that many of my mother's belongings have been mortgaged.

, I’m afraid this is not a long-term solution, so I have to make some income..."

Jia She's face was expressionless, but Jia Zheng was a little hesitant, but he also knew that what his brother said was true.

My wife also lamented in front of me several times that this family is not easy to manage. She talked about various expenses that could only increase but not decrease, but the annual income did not increase.

"Brother, I'm just afraid..."

"Second brother, you are thin-skinned, so you don't have to worry about such things. Lian'er and I will come and discuss it later. The Ma family has a big business. Ma Xia and Ma Qiu have made a lot of money outside over the years. Now,

Something happened, but they asked us to do a favor to wipe their butts. How can it be such a light thing? Ma Shang himself said that he knew he could settle the matter and was willing to repay generously. You can't let us do both a favor and a penny.

?”

Jia Zheng smiled bitterly and was speechless. His brother was like a goose plucking his hair. How could he not take advantage of this kind of thing?

"Brother, it's better to be on the safe side with this matter. Don't make everyone's faces look ugly..." Jia Zheng knew that he might not be able to defeat the other party on this matter, so he could only remind him.

"Well, my brother knows the rules, so don't say anything else. Just let me and Lian'er handle it." Seeing that Jia Zheng had given in, Jia She said with a proud smile: "You have to compromise on this matter."

yes."
