1222 handing over power, the responsibility of the family
The Feng family has always been cautious, and they are usually loyal and patriotic in appearance, even if they are extremely powerful, they have never shown off, let alone form a party and fight for power with the emperor in the open.
The Feng family is not loyal to someone, they are only loyal to the emperor. The original old emperor, the current Taishang Emperor, and the previous emperors, all liked the fact that the family was very fond of the Feng family.
In their opinion, the Feng family's loyalty to the emperor is loyalty to them, and they are trusted courtiers, and they don't need to worry about the Feng family forming a party and getting close to the prince.
In fact, the Feng family has always done this. During the reign of Emperor Taishang, the Feng family was loyal to Emperor Taishang, and after Qin Shanyan succeeded to the throne, the Feng family was loyal to Qin Shanyan. Although the Emperor Taishang was very dissatisfied with the Feng family's move, the Emperor Taishang could not protect himself at this time, what could he do with the Feng family?
When Qin Xiaoyan first succeeded to the throne, he received the strong support of the Feng family, and without the assistance of Feng Shoufu in the court, Qin Shanyan would not have been able to gather the imperial power in such a short period of time and establish the majesty of the emperor.
Of course, Qin Xiaoyan did not treat the family lightly. Although there is no reward for the Feng family, but Feng Nijin is reused, everyone knows that Feng Bijin is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he is deeply valued by Qin Xiaoyan, and his future is unlimited.
The friendship between monarchs and ministers, this was a good story, but at this time, Jing Yan appeared.
At the gate of the city, Feng Bijin's attitude towards Jing Yan made Qin Xiaoyan very satisfied, but what happened later made Qin Xiaoyan very dissatisfied.
The courtiers he wants are not only loyal to the emperor but also to him, and obviously the family can't do it.
It is a good thing that the Feng family values love and righteousness, as a bystander, he appreciates the integrity of the Feng family, but as an emperor and Jing Yan's opponent, Qin Xiaoyan can't appreciate the actions of the Feng family.
The Feng family admits that they have not been involved in the affairs of Qin Xiaoyan and Jing Yan, but in Qin Xiaoyan's opinion, the Feng family took in the injured Jing Yan and concealed his traces for Jing Yan, which was colluding with Jing Yan.
However, now Qin Xiaoyan can't take the Feng family, otherwise if he pushes the Feng family to Jing Yan's side, it will be more than worth the loss. can't deal with the Feng family, and he won't support the Feng family like before. The transfer of Jiao Cifu to Beijing is to give a warning to the Feng family, and it is also to divide the power of Shoufu.
When he was sheltering Jing Yan, Old Man Feng knew that there would be such a day, but he didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
"That's fine. The fire is cooking oil, the flowers are brocade, the Feng family has been standing at the top position for too long, it's time to come down. "Old Man Feng dropped the white son and blocked all the ways of the black man.
The emperor's power is stronger than he imagined, and his actions are stronger than he imagined, and the matter of the Feng family taking in Jing Yan is very secretive, but the emperor knew it at the first time. And regardless of the reaction of the Feng family, the Jiao family was brought up.
"This game of chess is left to you." Old Man Feng got up and pointed to the chessboard on the table, so that Feng Shoufu could take a good look.
Feng Shoufu seemed to be thoughtful, and after the old man left, he stepped forward and stood under the lamp to look carefully at the black and white children on the chessboard.
Kuroko has the advantage, and he is like a bamboo all the way, but in the end, he is trapped to death by Baizi, and no amount of advantage is of any use.
Feng Shoufu thoughtfully, put away all the chess pieces on the chessboard, and then sat in the position of the old man Feng, and reviewed the game according to memory, but halfway through, Feng Shoufu changed the place where the sunspot fell, and finally ......
It's a tie!
Feng Shoufu shook his head and chuckled, "Father is still like this, things that can be explained in one sentence, but I have to think about it myself." "Feng Shoufu is not a person who has too much desire for power, and when he thinks about it, his heart is relaxed.
They wanted to hand over the power of the Feng family a long time ago, and now the emperor wants to divide his power, and he cooperates. I only hope that the emperor will be able to let the Feng family live for the sake of his peaceful handover of power.
Feng Shoufu didn't move the chessboard, sat in the position for a while and got up and left, when he came out of the old man's courtyard gate, he happened to meet Feng Nijin, who also came out, and the father and son walked towards the front yard together.
"Nijin, do you know what your grandfather means?" Feng Shoufu didn't care about handing over power, but he felt very sorry for this eldest son.
In terms of talent and ability, his eldest son is far above him, but because of the situation of the Feng family, he can't show it, and it's a pity to think about it.
"Yes." He was the first to make that step. Grandpa is just cleaning up the mess for him.
"I've wronged you." Feng Shoufu patted Feng Bijin's shoulder and sighed.
Feng Bijin shook his head and chuckled, "Father, this is very good, you don't have to think about it, this is also my choice." ”
Learn literature and martial arts, goods and the emperor's family. Although he also hopes to take revenge on his politics, it is more important for him to keep his family.
The moment he helped Jing Yan, he was ready not to be reused. The Feng family is already powerful, and if he sits in the position of first assistant after 20 years, he can't even be a powerful minister if he doesn't want to. And the minister has not had a good end since ancient times, and he doesn't want to ruin the Feng family.
Feng Shoufu nodded, his mood was a little better, and when he walked to the fork, he asked Feng Bijin to go back to rest, and he would go to court tomorrow.
No matter what the emperor thinks, as long as they are still in power, they have to take care of things.
In the night, the father and son parted ways, back to back, and drifted apart......
A few families were happy and a few were sad, and when Feng Shoufu was worried about Qin Shiyan's actions, the Jiao family was overjoyed, and they almost didn't hang firecrackers in front of the door to celebrate.
Because of the Jiangnan incident, the Jiao family lost their favor in the face of the emperor, and it was not easy to mix in the family circle. The reason is very simple, except for Jiao Xiangdi and Gu Sanye, the officials in Jiangnan who did not obey Jing Yan all died, regardless of their family background.
Although they also understand that Jiao Xiangdi and Gu Sanye can't be blamed for this, but people are like this, when they are miserable, they can't look down on others.
is also an official in Jiangnan, his excellent child died, but the Jiao family's child is alive. Not only is he alive but he continues to be an official in Jiangnan, do you say that he is angry or not?
In such a situation, those children who died in the homes of Jiangnan will naturally anger Jiao Cifu and the Jiao family. thinks that the Jiao family has any life-saving power, but they only protect their own children, but they do not help protect their children, which is selfish and chilling.
All the families whose children died in Jiangnan invariably started a relationship with the Jiao family. In addition, Qin Xiaoyan was angry with the Jiao family, not only reprimanded Jiao Cifu, but also demoted Jiao Cifu's official position, and those people did not associate with the Jiao family even more.
However, in half a year, the Jiao family, second only to the Feng family, has changed from a crowd of people to a crowd, so deserted that it is not good, and there is a tendency to decline......
A note to readers: I just got home and flew out again, and I was really busy and crazy during this time, and I had to come forward to talk about all kinds of copyright matters by myself. I really think that negotiation is a technical job, Ah Cai is too homely, too stupid, it is very difficult to negotiate with others, and I have to negotiate things that others can negotiate in a day, but I have to take several days. Alas...... It seems that I can only write at home, and it is not suitable for business with people.
