Red Chamber: Bring Xue Baochai home at the beginning

Chapter 228
According to the old rules of the Feng Mansion, in the next half month.

Feng Yibo will stay at Xiangling's place overnight.

After the novice protection period, she will be added to the official rotation.

So for several days, Feng Yibo realized one thing.

That is:
The softness of the limbs is not only good for the health of the body.

It will also make people feel happy!

Posture is power, and posture trumps beauty.

The yoga that Xiangling has practiced seriously for two years has also been vividly reflected.

Because of this, Feng Yibo made up his mind.

His wives and concubines have to follow suit.

Not for anything else, mainly to exercise their bodies.

Originally, Feng Yibo and Baochai had discussed and planned to prepare a lantern festival at home.

Because the sixteenth day of the first lunar month is the day when Dongzang Society opened in Feng's residence.

But from the end of the twelfth lunar month, the old concubine in the palace was not in good health.

By the time of Lantern Festival, the old concubine hadn't seen her well yet.

Therefore, Emperor Jingshun ordered all the concubines in the palace to reduce their meals and makeup.

All relatives and relatives in the capital will also be exempted from all feasts.

Even agreed, once a year to visit relatives.

They were also canceled together.

At the same time, the Zhen family, the old concubine's natal family, also received the order.

He sent people to visit in the capital.

Although Feng Yibo resigned, the honor is still there.

Nature is also on the restricted list.

The Dongzang Club, which had originally agreed to be rainy or not, could not be held as scheduled.

It can only be silenced temporarily.

"How about we take the mother-in-law and uncle over first?"

Unable to open a society, Feng Yibo discussed with Baochai to bring Xue Mu and Xue Pan over.

Although banquets are free, small-scale family banquets are still okay.

"Let's just wait!"

Baochai has always been safe, she shook her head when she heard the words, and said:

"My lord is returning after hanging the crown in the court hall. At this time, we should be more careful, and don't let people cause trouble because of such trivial matters."

The reason why she pushed Feng Yibo to accept Xiangling.

In addition to fulfilling the responsibility of a big woman.

And keep Xiangling in the second room, out of her name.

The main reason is that in his heart, he has always remembered Feng Yibo's return from the crown.

He wanted to take this to ease the boredom in his heart.

Although Feng Yibo behaved calmly, he didn't seem to care about his resignation.

But Baochai judged others by himself, and felt that he must still be a little depressed.

Just don't show half of it in front of the family.

So, the virtuous Baochai thought about how to make him feel better.

After much deliberation, I just felt that I should either give him a big fat boy, or give him a concubine.

In short, in the concept of maintaining love, it is better to rush with happy events.

So Xiangling, who was originally appointed as a concubine, was pulled in for a joy.

After all, Zuo Zuo also has to collect the house, and she is still a peace of mind.

Not only that, Baochai also paid attention to the movements in the mansion.

Avoid any trouble for Feng Yibo.

That's why Baochai immediately objected when he proposed to pick up his mother and elder brother.

Even if it was a possibility, she didn't want to take any risks.

But what he didn't know was that Feng Yibo really didn't take it seriously.

"We don't make much fanfare, it doesn't matter if we just set up a few tables for family banquets."

He is sure to return to the court, and there is still a way to go to sea and become king.

"I know how good the master is to me, and I also know how filial the master is."

Baochai continued to shake her head, and said firmly:
"But they've lived there for a long time, and it's not too late for a few days. When the limelight of this matter passes, it won't be too late for us to take over."

Feng Yibo saw that Baochai insisted on refusing, and didn't want her to worry about it anymore, so he temporarily gave up.

So he called Miaoyu, and went to the study together to continue compiling textbooks without mentioning it.

On the other side, Gouzi has returned to Liuqiu.

From Jinmen to Liuqiu, the whole journey is about a thousand nautical miles.

In the beginning, the Liuqiu fleet needed half a month for a one-way trip.

Sometimes it doesn't go well, even in a month.

But as the number of trips increased, the fleet became more and more familiar with the waterway.

Now it only takes about ten days to complete the journey.

Even when the wind is going smoothly, you can walk back and forth in half a month.

Gouzi set off from Duzhong after the Chinese New Year and arrived in Liuqiu smoothly.

I also went back home to celebrate the Lantern Festival.

After that, follow Feng Yibo's plan.

While the scriptures and teaching materials were engraved and printed, they began to restrict the fleets related to the founding heroes.

Although Feng Yibo didn't specifically explain this matter, Gouzi still avoided Wang Xifeng.

After all, the Wang family she was born in had a close relationship with the four kings and eight princes.

The Jia family he married is one of the four princes and eight princes.

"Grandma, this is what the master explained this time. I think it's better not to tell the second grandma first, so as not to..."

Gouzi didn't finish his words, but the meaning was obvious.

Although Qin Keqing also married the Jia family, she is still different from Wang Xifeng.

One of the two left voluntarily, and the other was taken captive.

Moreover, Qin Ye and Qin Zhong are also in exile, and the family is neat and tidy.

But Wang Xifeng only brought Ping'er.

Even if he has a child now, Gouzi has to think twice.

After hearing Gouzi's words, Ke Qing inevitably felt a little complicated, and said sourly:

"After all, she has a body, so it's better to work less."

On the one hand, Ke Qing is angry that she has no skills.

Wang Xifeng had an heir first, but her grandma didn't move at all.

On the other hand, she was relieved that Gouzi didn't treat her like an outsider.

To a large extent, Gouzi's attitude is the feedback of Feng Yibo's attitude.

Even if it wasn't Feng Yibo's confession this time, it means that he had confessed similar things before.

Otherwise, Gouzi would not have reservations about Wang Xifeng.

There is nothing to say about Gouzi's execution ability, he and Ke Qing reported it, and then started to act.

The engraving and printing of scriptures and textbooks still takes time.

Targeted actions can be executed immediately.

Soon, in Donghai County, all the merchant ships flying the flag of the founding of the country found that Liu Qiu was targeting them.

Because, the buying price and selling price are different from before.

The same back and forth are full of goods, but the profit is half less than before.

After inquiring, I also found that others have not changed.

Only these caravans under Xungui's banner were cheated.

They immediately found Liu Qiu's law enforcement team.

"My lord, our uncle is an official in the same dynasty as the king of Donghai County, please let us be the master!"

In their view, as long as the name is reported, the problem should be solved.

Unexpectedly, the Liuqiu Law Enforcement Team, which has always enforced the law impartially, told them coldly this time:
"This matter was specifically explained by the higher-ups, you go back!"

All the caravans were stunned.

After inquiring again, I found out that all the merchants in Liuqiu had been notified.

Anyone who violates it will be forbidden to trade in Liuqiu.

Such blatant targeting was quickly passed back to Da Wei.

Before the founder of the country sent someone to negotiate, he learned another thing.

The people who were sent by the new right servant of the Ministry of Rites to take over were all expelled back.

Already dejected, he took a boat from Quanzhou and returned to the capital to report.

The new right servant of the Ministry of Rites is the founder of the country.

After Feng Yibo hung the crown, many nobles pushed it up with all their might!
Although the founding heroes had a hunch, they still didn't give up.

As a result, many people were sent to Liuqiu to negotiate.

Make a promise to meet the king of Donghai County.

It's a pity that these people didn't even touch the door of the Black Dragon Mansion.

Finally, someone came up with an idea and bribed a former acquaintance in charge with a lot of money.

Only then did I learn that this matter was actually ordered by the Black Dragon King himself.

It is said that it was because Dawei did not abide by his previous promise and refused to dictate to Donghai County other officials.

At the same time, the steward hinted at them.

In doing this, the Black Dragon King is probably also fighting for the injustice of his friends in the capital!
For a while, many of the caravans attached to the honorable founder of the country wanted to leave.

Or they want to switch to the new nobles, or they want to be under the name of the Minyue clan.

If it is a family or two, the founding heroes can naturally suppress it easily.

But dozens of hundreds of companies, they dare not act rashly.

I can only comfort you with good words and promise to solve it soon.

They must solve it as soon as possible, otherwise the newly promoted nobles will be moved upon hearing the news.

There was bound to be an uproar.

No one can benefit from it!
For a while, secret letters flew towards the capital like rain.

When the founding nobles in the capital learned about this matter, they quickly thought that it had something to do with Feng Yibo.

But they couldn't figure out why the Black Dragon King did this.

Is he a fool?
Otherwise, how could they not even give them a chance to negotiate?
If you take advantage of this, the nobles will give in to some extent.

The big deal is to wait until there is more infiltration in the future, and then find it from elsewhere.

But the opponent's current posture of losing both sides makes them have no chance to make a move.

It was also caused heavy losses by the other party first!
Du Zhongxungui was dumbfounded when he received the secret letter.

This is different from what they thought!

Originally, they planned to let their own person be the right servant of the Ministry of Rites to take over Feng Yibo's position.

In the name of the imperial court, there is a certain deterrent to Donghai County.

result……

"Is this Donghai County King crazy?"

In the Prince's Mansion of Beijing County, a group of nobles gathered.

One person suppressed his anger and was talking about this matter.

The other person also looked unwilling, and echoed:
"Yes! He not only took revenge on us for Feng Yuan, but also expelled officials from the Ministry of Rites..."

Having said that, he paused for a moment before saying in disbelief:
"Is he trying to rebel?"

For a while, everyone was talking about it.

"That's right! Why doesn't this Duke of Donghai play his cards according to common sense?"

"But he was the one who took the initiative to donate soil, and now he excuses that Dawei didn't keep his promise, and it's not without reason to repent."

"I haven't completely torn my face yet. If it really comes to that point, the Holy One must blame us, right?"

Just at this moment, a voice as gentle as jade sounded.

"All right!"

The sound was not loud, but everyone stopped one after another.

Some sighed regretfully, while others suppressed their anger.

All eyes were on the person who came.

"The top priority is to discuss the countermeasures first."

The man walked to the center and sat on the main seat.

He waved his hand lightly, and everyone took their seats.

Afterwards, a waiter served tea.

After retreating, someone lost his temper and said:
"My lord, this matter is different from what we thought at the beginning!"

It turned out that that person was the only one among the four princes and eight princes who still retained his title, King Beijing.

Soluble!

He has just completed the weak crown, and is about the same age as Feng Yibo.

She looks beautiful and her voice is as gentle as jade.

Although he is not very old, he is very prestigious among the four kings and eight princes.

The house is full of honorable persons who founded the country, but they are all vaguely headed by him.

Hearing someone ask at this time, he didn't seem a bit impatient, and said:

"Feng Yuan's weight in Donghai County is indeed far beyond our expectations."

The gentle voice seems to have a magical power.

As soon as the sound rang, Manwu Xungui's irritability became much weaker.

"Even if we had the most certain plan at the beginning, to use the court to coerce Donghai County, it was completely useless."

Speaking of this, King Beijing paused, then smiled and said:
"However, it is absolutely impossible to say that the Duke of Donghai will rebel against this."

At this time, someone was puzzled and said doubtfully:

"Why is this?"

King Beijing looked at the man, smiled gently, and said:
"He must have intended to belong to him before, Jianguo is just for offering soil and getting more."

At this time, someone understood what he meant and nodded in agreement:
"That's right, if you want to turn against Da Wei, why bother?"

As soon as the words fell, someone questioned:

"But why did he expel the people sent by the Ministry of Rites?"

King Beijing Jing still had a smile on his face, making people feel like a spring breeze, and said:

"It must be that Feng Yuan, who recommended him, went to the wild, which made him afraid."

"He did this, seemingly for Feng Yuan, and also to protect his own position."

Everyone nodded, and someone asked:

"Then why expel us?"

At this moment, Feng Ziying, who had not spoken a word, suddenly said:

"Although Feng Yuan has been in the capital, as far as I know, he and Liu Qiu have never been in contact."

Feng Ziying didn't say anything about Jinmen, Feng Yibo left because of his relationship.

If you know it, you know it, and if you don't know it, there is no need to make extra troubles.

"So, it was Feng Yuan's instigation!"

Someone suddenly slapped the table and suggested:
"If we become Feng Yuan, Donghai County doesn't have to rely on him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone mocked:
"Are you a vegetarian as a Dragon Scale Guard? Which one of us doesn't have many eyes?"

The man was speechless when he heard the words, and sat back unwillingly.

At this moment, King Beijing saw that no one was talking, and said again:
"Now that you've finished talking, shouldn't we discuss how to solve this matter?"

He chuckled twice, as if he didn't take it seriously, and said:
"Now there are only two paths."

Everyone was calm and calm, and their ears were pricked up.

"First, we gave up the plan of Donghai County and moved to the Jiaozhi side to directly cooperate with the Haixi people in Mancijia."

Speaking of this, the people of Nan'an Palace were ecstatic.

But King Bei Jing added:
"However, the disadvantage of doing this is that the distance is much longer, but you can't make a lot of money."

The people from the Nan'an Palace were about to refute, but someone took the lead and asked:
"What about the second way?"

"Don't worry."

King Bei Jing smiled and said:

"Besides, the situation on the Jiaozhi side is complicated, and it is inconvenient to supply in the face of the prying eyes of the surrounding countries."

These words were naturally spoken to Nan'an Palace.

Sure enough, the man was a little embarrassed when he heard the words.

There is no way, Jiaozhi can protect itself, and it does not deter the countries in the South China Sea much.

Taking that route is likely to face embarrassment from some small countries.

"Second, it is to take the initiative to attack. We will submit a letter to Donghai County together. If we do not accept the assignment from the Ministry of Rites, it will be regarded as rebellion."

King Beijing Jing rarely showed a hint of Xiao Sha, and said in a deep voice:

"Cochin and Guangdong will unite and send troops to suppress!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone shook their heads.

Especially the man from Nan'an Prince's Mansion, with a troubled face, said:

"I'm afraid it will be difficult."

He looked at the crowd with a solemn look on his face, and said:
"Even if the two sides join forces, as long as we are still at sea, we may not be the opponents of Donghai County."

Someone who knew something inside also echoed:
"The soldiers in Donghai County are comparable to the elite of the Nine Frontiers, and the ships are all lucky ships suitable for naval warfare."

King Beijing Jing frowned slightly upon hearing this, and said:
"Is there such a thing?"

It turned out that he didn't know the specific strength of Donghai County, he just thought that the officers and soldiers of the Great Wei would definitely be able to handle it easily.

Unexpectedly, the opponent had soldiers who were not inferior to the elite of the Nine Frontiers.

This simply made King Beijing think that he had heard wrong.

"This issue……"

The man was a little hesitant, because this was the description of the Japanese pirates who asked him to sell their stolen goods.

The other party described the combat effectiveness of Donghai County soldiers.

Against Japanese pirates, you can easily win more with less.

And the Japanese pirates can easily win more with less against the Shanghai Coast Guard.

Calculated in this way, it is almost equal to the elite of the nine sides, right?

Just when King Beijing Jing wanted to ask more questions, someone suddenly said:
"Actually, there is another way, it's just..."

It turned out that it was Feng Ziying who spoke out suddenly, but when the words came to his lips, he hesitated to speak.

Everyone looked at him curiously, King Beijing Jing also looked at Feng Ziying, and said:

"You might as well speak out and listen."

Feng Ziying hesitated for a moment, and seeing that everyone was looking at him, she sighed and said:

"Actually, we can recommend Officer Feng Yuan to resume his post and restore the previous balance."

Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard the words.

Feng Ziying looked serious, gritted her teeth and continued:
"Picture it slowly."
