Emperor Phoenix Policy: Feng Qingtian

Chapter 233 She is my fiancee

Pei Xiu was startled, then she frowned slightly, and looked at Feng Jin silently.

Feng Jin gave him a deep look, "What? Why didn't Pei Qing speak?"

Pei Xiu's brows were tightened, and it took a while before he said coldly, "Why do you have to joke with this humble minister, Your Majesty?"

"You think I'm joking with you?"

Feng Jin couldn't help but laugh, and his meaningful eyes glanced at Pei Xiu's unparalleled handsome face, "Pei Xiu, you will never be the emperor!"

Feng Jin's words were extremely certain, and Pei Xiu's eyes flashed coldly, "The future will be long, what's your majesty's hurry?"

"Do you know why?"

Feng Jin looked at Pei Xiu sharply. Pei Xiu's expression kept changing. He snorted coldly and said coldly, "It's too early for His Majesty to say such things now, isn't it?"

"Okay! Then I ask you a question, if I give you the Zen seat, would you dare to take it?"

Pei Xiu was stunned, and looked at Feng Jin suspiciously. Feng Jin's expression was stern and solemn, not like joking, Pei Xiu frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Is what His Majesty said true?"

"What I said is if, if I give you the Zen seat, would you dare to take it?"

Pei Xiu hesitated again and again, but did not give a definite answer after all.

"You don't dare! You are afraid of being criticized by the world, so you can only be a powerful minister forever! Acting for the emperor, you are not the emperor after all! You want supreme power and the support of the world. As a courtier, I dare not cross that boundary."

Pei Xiu's complexion kept changing, from blue to white, from white to purple, from purple to red, he stared blankly at Feng Jin, trying to refute her words, but for some reason, he couldn't utter a single word.

"So, you have clearly held me hostage. For six full years, you have kept me in the deep palace for six years. You can make me make a decree at any time, and Zen is in your hands, but you don't! You dare not!"

At that time, Feng Jin loved Pei Xiu deeply and obeyed him. If Pei Xiu wanted the throne, Feng Jin would definitely give it to him.

"You had a lot of good opportunities, but you gave up, and you didn't dare to really cross that line. In fact, if you really get the throne of the Queen, and you use iron and blood methods, even if there is a period of turmoil in Da Zhou, you will not be able to cross the line." It will be stabilized soon, you can secure the throne, but you still dare not!"

You know, when she first possessed her body, except for Qi Laohu's household department who had been secretly resisting Pei Xiu's suppression in the court, the others were either Pei Xiu's party, or they were neutral, and they were wise and safe. He didn't confront Pei Xiu, and kept the so-called neutrality.

Pei Xiu had 18 troops in his hand, even if Zhong's army had 20 troops, they could still be restrained in the defense line of the northern border, and if it was the Queen's Zen Edict, Zhong Mo would not do anything.

And the rest of the troops were too scattered, scattered all over the Great Zhou, and ordinary people couldn't get together at all.

The only one who has an opinion is probably King Jiangdong.

The rest of the princes didn't dare to express their opinions even if they had opinions.

If Pei Xiu was determined to want the throne, he would be able to secure his position, but he didn't dare!

He is afraid that there will be a record of usurping the throne in the history books in the future, and he is afraid that the people of the world will criticize this.

Therefore, he can only be a courtier forever, a so-called substitute emperor, and will never be the real emperor.

If it was Feng Jin, who was in his previous position, Feng Jin would probably forcefully ascend the throne as emperor.

The so-called history books have always been passed down as the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. Besides, after the death, what will the people of later generations talk about, and what is the use?As for the people's hearts, if they are guided and allowed to live and work in peace and contentment, they can lead the people's hearts to the new emperor.

Pei Xiu couldn't see through, and he was destined to be bound by himself.

Pei Xiu was silent.

Feng Jin took a deep look at him, then looked away, looking at the vermilion palace gate in front of him, and the numerous palaces of this magnificent and luxurious imperial city, "Pei Qing, if I were you, why not return to the position of prime minister, An Anxin Heart to be a prime minister, you have the ability, I will continue to rely on you."

Pei Xiu remained silent.

"Don't wait until I lose patience before it's too late to regret."

Feng Jin dropped these words, and walked towards the palace gate ahead with Wuming.

Her tall and graceful back, and Wuming's tall and straight back, walked side by side, complementing each other, and it was particularly dazzling in Pei Xiu's eyes.

The days pass and spring completely covers the great week from March to April.

The spring breeze is warm and full of spring, and the imperial capital is full of flowers and willows.

Wu Qingshan has gained a firm foothold in the Ministry of Officials, and he has gained more and more trust from Pei Xiu, but the most important thing, Pei Xiu still only discusses it with Li Yi.

The gentry from the south of the Yangtze River had infiltrated all parts of the Great Zhou, not only that, but Feng Jin also inserted many chess pieces exclusively for her.

Everything went smoothly, and things were developing in the direction Feng Jin wanted, but she was always uneasy, feeling that something was about to happen.

Feng Sheng was still studying in the Imperial College, and after being taught a few times by Pei Xiu, Feng Cheng changed from being arrogant and self-willed at the beginning to a little timid and shy, Feng Jin knew it well, this kind of Feng Sheng was more conducive to Pei Xiu's control.

After that conversation, Pei Xiu was not in a hurry to do anything, and still let Feng Sheng study in the Imperial College in a leisurely manner.

Feng Sheng is already 11 years old, the older he is, the more difficult it is to control. King Qing'an sent a son, so he definitely won't just sit and watch. Feng Jin feels that Pei Xiu is already making some plans in secret, but neither Wuming nor Shen Wenqing can find out what it is. come out.

Wuming once suggested killing Feng Sheng, but Feng Jin refused.

Killing Fengcheng can't change anything. King Qing'an has a son and a grandson. Besides, without King Qing'an and King Xicheng, Pei Xiu will always find a way to find the puppet he wants. It's just a price to pay Just bigger.

As for Feng Yan, following her mother into the palace a few times, Feng Jin neither liked nor disliked this child, she only had one expectation for him, to learn how to be a prince, and how to be a wise king in the future.

Wuming didn't know that this child was Feng Jin's secretly chosen prince, and only thought that Feng Jin liked the child, so he saw Feng Yan again and again.

Feng Jin didn't point it out, Feng Yan was still young, he was only five years old, no one knew what he would become in the future, the teacher's teaching to Feng Yan had always been very secretive, on the surface it was teaching some poems and songs, a subset of classics and history , actually taught a lot of other things, so Pei Xiu always thought that Feng Jin let this child stay in the imperial capital to blackmail King Zhongshan.

Not only Pei Xiu thinks so, many people think so, even Lord Qi expressed doubts to Feng Jin, thinking that the empress might force King Zhongshan to go against him by doing so, Feng Jin never explained it, the more people who know about it The less, the less likely a leak will be.

On this day, Shen Wenqing came to Feng Jin's bedroom and reported something to her.

"Your Majesty, the matter of the female school has already begun."

Shen Wenqing's face was full of joy, Feng Jin smiled slightly, "Thank you, Wenqing."

"Your Majesty, you are being polite. It's all underlings running errands, and Wen Qing is just making some plans."

It was Feng Jin's idea to start a women's school half a year ago, and Shen Wenqing has been planning this matter ever since she had this idea.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, men were superior to women, and it would be difficult to run a women's school. It is conceivable that Shen Wenqing put in a lot of effort, just convincing the Shen family and the Jiangnan gentry, and spent a lot of energy and thought.

"I know Wen Qing's hard work."

Feng Jin smiled slightly, and poured a cup of tea himself, "I will respect you with this tea first! When the women's school is successfully opened, I will respect you three more cups of Lihuabai!"

Shen Wenqing took a deep look at Feng Jin, his ears were slightly red, he took the teacup with both hands, his respectful gesture was self-evident.

During the process of handing over the teacups, his fingers accidentally touched Feng Jin's fingers. The cool and soft touch came from the fingertips, making Shen Wenqing a little dazed.

"Tell me about it."

Feng Jin's slightly smiling voice pulled back Shen Wenqing's drifting thoughts. He restrained those thoughts that could not be known to others. After drinking the tea, he respectfully put the teacup on the table, put his hands back into his sleeves, and finally Shen Sheng replied, "Wen Qing has already found a private school in the imperial capital, named it Banzhu Women's School, and invited a widowed woman as a teacher, and now she is waiting for someone to enroll. The woman's name is Li Qing, She was a famous talented woman before she got married, but after her husband passed away due to illness, she has no intention of remarrying, so she has been keeping chastity for her husband, so it is most suitable for her to teach girls how to read and write."

Feng Jin nodded while listening, "You have done a good job. If you hire a male gentleman, no one will be willing to send the female family members to school, and there must be a lot of opposition from the people. Hiring a female husband will save a lot of trouble. .”

Feng Jin said, looking at Shen Wenqing, "By the way, how did you find this Li Qing?"

Shen Wenqing's face became a little weird, and he hesitated and couldn't speak a complete sentence.

"What's wrong? Is there something unspeakable?"

Feng Jin observed Shen Wenqing's expression, and said softly, "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it..."

"No! Your Majesty, there is no unspeakable secret! Don't think too much, Your Majesty!"

Shen Wenqing eagerly interrupted Feng Jin's words, Feng Jin smiled slightly, "I didn't think much about it, what's wrong with you, Wen Qing."

Shen Wenqing gave Feng Jin a complicated look, but hesitated to speak.

"If Wenqing doesn't want to talk about it, or if he can't say it, then I won't ask. Wenqing, I still have this little trust. I have said that I will entrust everything to you about women's studies. Employers are not suspicious and others are not. Don't worry about me thinking too much."

Feng Jin thought that he was worried that he would doubt his loyalty, so he said with a smile, Shen Wenqing frowned and looked at Feng Jin with a hesitant expression.

As time passed, Feng Jin saw that he had been silent, so she smiled and said, "Wenqing, if you have nothing to do, you can step back."

"His Majesty!"

Shen Wenqing spoke suddenly, which startled Feng Jin, "Your Majesty, Li Qing is my fiancee!"
