Xian Sun of the Ning Mansion of the Red Chamber

Chapter 42 Undercurrent
Jia Ying secretly felt a headache for the current court situation, and worried about Feng Hengshi.

Emperor Jiade was determined to rectify the administration of officials, and Fu Donglai was his right-hand man. Now, it seems that Feng Hengshi is obviously fighting for the two of them. No matter how you look at it, it seems a bit weak.

In the face of a powerful conservative group, if it backfires, Feng Hengshi will suffer first.

But Jia Ying knew that this seemingly weak reformer should have succeeded in the end, or at least gained the upper hand, otherwise why would the Jia family be copied?
Jia Ying's heart moved, and he asked tentatively: "Mr. Donglai, you don't think you will let the situation develop to the unfavorable side like this?"

Fu Donglai chuckled, looked at Jia Ying and said, "How do you know that this old man has a solution?"

Jia Ying thought to herself, "I deduced it the other way around."

But I can't say this, I just smiled and sent a comfortable flattery: "My teacher once said that when he was young, he was not as good as you in terms of style, fame and talent. Now, he is still not as good as you in terms of the ability to stabilize the country! In Jia Ying's heart, the talents and abilities of his mentor Heng Shigong are few in this world. If it is said that others can't do anything about it, the students will believe it, but if it is said that you have no students who will not believe it!"

Fu Donglai's face was slightly rosy, and he pretended to laugh and scolded: "You are very clever, you kid, if you want me to save your teacher, just say it straight, why bother to say such good things around the corner, the old man Feng Hengshi still understands Yes, I was jealous of the old man when I was young, and he would say something nice to you about the old man?"

Jia Ying patted her chest and assured, "Students don't dare to say half a lie. These words were all said by the teachers themselves when the students came to Beijing."

"Really?"

At this moment, Fu Donglai seemed to have become an old urchin again, with a smile on his face without hiding it, and he said happily: "Hahaha, I didn't expect that Feng Hengshi would figure it out one day. It seems that the six years in Nanjing were not in vain. He is here In the letter, I still have a tough talk with the old man, let's see what he says when we meet next time!"

Jia Ying felt a little uncertain, and sighed secretly: "Teacher, teacher, don't blame the students for betraying you. Everything is for your own good. Isn't it just to save face? It shouldn't matter if you lose a little bit."

I just heard Fu Donglai say: "You guessed right, the old man did do some coping, but it wasn't as easy as you said, and the old man was just a paper poster."

"Students would like to hear the details." Fu Donglai had already told him so much, and Jia Ying didn't care to know more, which would also be helpful for him to become an official in the future.

I just heard Fu Donglai said: "The old man said before that those who do great things must seek the overall situation, and they must have room for flies. It is not to let them go, but to wait for the opportunity and kill them with one blow!"

Jia Ying deeply believes that those who can achieve Fu Donglai's position as a sensuality are all old yin and yang~ people, cruel and cruel, hiding a knife in a smile is as normal to them as eating and drinking.

"But then again, a fly is a fly, and I keep it to attract more of its kind, but if you really slap it to death, it doesn't matter, there will always be others that will jump out."

Fu Donglai snorted coldly and said: "Fei Lian and Zhong Shanlang are like two flies that jumped out. I was worried about not moving them before. It was because the old man wanted to give His Majesty a buffer time, but since Once you've reached this point, there's nothing to worry about.

Although the old man’s right to draft bills is not as good as those two, but the old man is also a job in the household department. Just check the tax payment situation of Huguang over the years, and the notes allocated to Huguang for disaster relief and counter-insurgency in recent years. Whoever made it, I am not afraid that those people will still be able to sit still. "

"Can you find it out? Or will the other party let you find it out easily?"

Jia Ying thought in her heart, but didn't say it out loud.

Fu Donglai is an old man, why can't he see what Jia Ying is thinking, he said with a smile: "Do you think the old man really wants to investigate?"

Jia Ying was startled and said, "It's not that you just said that."

Fu Donglai shook his head and said: "Since Xuanlong's 45 years, there are some bad debts in the household department, 15 years of bad debts, how many people are involved, and how much time it will take to find out. Wouldn’t it be possible to kill all the big officials?”

Jia Ying couldn't understand.

Fu Donglai shook his head and said: "The important thing is not to find out, but to investigate!"

Jia Ying thought about Fu Donglai's words for a long time, and finally figured it out. A thief always has a guilty conscience, no matter if he is a stealer or a thief, just like Bao Siyu killed Qi Benzhong who had not yet entered the capital. Before the east window was released.

Perhaps the elders Li and Xu can see everything clearly, but it doesn't mean that the people below them can see clearly.

The human heart is the most difficult thing to predict and influence.

Li Endi and Xu Zhemu may be able to control a person's fate, but they cannot control a person's inner fear.

They seem to be aloof and judge life and death.In fact, aren't they themselves being swayed by everyone?
Fu Donglai, this is a proper conspiracy!
What is a minister who seeks the country?

With all kinds of emotions, Jia Ying finally turned it into a sentence: "The students admire!"

There was no joy on Fu Donglai's face, and he said: "It's just a way to make up for the dead. The key is not to take down the two Huguang officials, but where they have amassed so much money and sent it? And , Your teacher also mentioned in the letter that in addition to reselling military rations and embezzling military pay, there is also a large amount of military equipment being lost."

"Army?" Jia Ying's heart froze when she heard this!
Fu Donglai also had a solemn face, nodded and said: "That's right! Not only the loss of armaments, but also the serious shortage of Huguang Guards. Feng Hengshi estimates that it may be as high as [-]%."

"It's no wonder that the White Lotus Sect has been suppressed for nearly four years and failed to do its best." Jia Ying sighed softly.

If Fu Donglai hadn't told him these things, he wouldn't have known that Dagan had reached such a point. This is completely a sign of subjugation!

Only Fu Donglai snorted coldly: "Suppressing the rebellion? Huh! The old man is a little curious, where did the guns and firearms in the hands of the Bailian rebels come from? You know, all the firearms workshops in Dagan are concentrated in Beizhili, All the recipes are strictly forbidden to be leaked, some rebels who are not in the air, how can they have firearms in their hands, and they have formed two or three battalions of sharp guns! Hmph!"

Jia Ying only felt that there was an undercurrent turbulent everywhere in Dagan, what did Huguang want to do?Raising the bandits' self-respect?still.
"I just don't know if these two things are involved with those two, and if so, to what extent?" Fu Donglai whispered to himself, but Jia Ying couldn't hear it clearly.

Speaking of this, Fu Donglai stared at Jia Ying and said, "Don't reveal a single word of what the old man told you today!"

Jia Ying nodded solemnly. He's not stupid. If he says a word, he probably won't have to wait. Tomorrow, Emperor Jiade will order the house raid.

"Mr. Donglai, the students have something they don't understand."

"Say!"

"Everything that Duke Donglai said to the students just now has a great relationship, so why?" Jia Ying was a little puzzled.

Fu Donglai glanced at Jia Ying contemptuously and said, "Don't think too much about it, so what if I tell you? Do you dare to say it?"

Jia Ying: "."

Fu Donglai seemed to be tired too, he waved his hand to Jia Ying and said, "Let's stop here today, it's getting dark, you can go back."

After Jia Ying left, Fu Donglai still sat motionless on the chair.

In fact, he also felt a little regretful, what happened to him tonight, he said so many important national affairs to a young man who had not yet entered an official position, and the other party was from a noble family
After thinking for a long time, Fu Donglai didn't think about it himself. He sighed softly and whispered: "Probably. I just want to talk to someone! He is Feng Hengshi's disciple Poshitou, Poshitou, when will you return to Beijing?" What about me? My husband is alone.”

At this moment, Fu Donglai looked more like an old man in his sixties!
