When Shen Hexuan left the capital, the assessment of the senior officials also started.
Officials of the second rank and above in the local area are mostly governors, and they all have to return to Beijing unless they have important duties not to leave their posts. .
Feng Jianping is the first military general in the history of Dasheng to become a governor, which means that he is in charge of military and political power at the same time, and his power is overwhelming. Now that there is no war in Datong, all the governors have returned to Beijing to report on their duties, and Feng Jianping should come back the most.
But there was no movement in Datong Mansion.
This matter is delicate and dangerous. If the official department sends a letter to urge, once Feng Jianping refuses, Feng Jianping will hold a heavy soldier and will not return to the court. He has the heart of disobedience. The rules, but the Ministry of Officials is not willing to poke this scorpion at all.
Yan Sikong had already noticed this, and Liu An, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, looked hesitant to speak when he saw him several times, but in the end he still didn't say anything to him alone. He guessed that Liu An wanted to find out about Feng Ye through him, but he thought of the unseemly rumors between the two of them, so he gave up.
Yan Sikong knew that this matter was not trivial, and was planning to discuss it with Feng Ye. Perhaps Feng Ye had also heard some rumors, so he took the initiative to come to Yan Sikong late that night.
Feng Ye cut to the chase and said, "The official department has news now, how should I handle my father's assessment?"
Yan Sikong shook his head: "Liu Shangshu is in a dilemma, I guess he will go to the teacher to discuss it soon."
"What do you think about Elder Yan Ge?" Feng Ye asked.
Yan Sikong thought for a while: "Teacher is the chief assistant of the cabinet, and if we deal with it fairly, the emperor should issue an order to order His Highness to return to court."
"But?" Feng Ye raised his eyebrows.
Yan Sikong paced back and forth in the room with a heavy expression on his face: "To be honest, I don't know."
"You mean, Yan Zilian might urge my father to return to Beijing?"
"The Beijing is investigating the big plan. All the local governors have to return to Beijing to report on their duties. Now only King Jingyuan has not left, and there have been criticisms in the court. At this time, how can the teacher cover up." Yan Sikong sighed, "But, Your Highness cannot come back."
Feng Ye nodded: "My father can't come back. If he returns to Beijing, the emperor will definitely try to reduce his military power. No, I have to see Yan Zilian."
"Feng Ye." Yan Sikong pulled him back and said seriously, "Feng Ye, he is the chief assistant of the cabinet, do you understand what I mean?"
Feng Ye looked at Yan Sikong fixedly.
"As the chief assistant of the cabinet, how could he tolerate foreign ministers sitting on heavy troops? The only reason why he has ignored His Highness for many years is to contain the eunuchs. Neither he nor Xie Zhongren will offend His Highness, because they are afraid that His Highness will tend to Any faction will overturn the entire court situation."
Feng Ye narrowed his eyes: "Then what will happen to him this time?"
"I said, I don't know. I think the teacher doesn't want His Highness to return to Beijing now. The Beijing police plan has already shaken the court. If His Highness comes back again, there will be more storms, and this mess will not be cleaned up. Yes, but it is absolutely impossible for the teacher to do nothing, otherwise how can he convince the public?" Yan Sikong patted Feng Ye's shoulder reassuringly, "I will discuss this with the teacher alone. The situation in Datong is complicated, and you can't get away with a heavy responsibility? The sooner you can get to the capital, the better."
"It's already on the way."
"That's good." Yan Sikong paused, and asked tentatively: "Fengye, Your Highness is now a master of achievements and has a heavy army in hand. After all, it is not a long-term solution. Have you ever thought about... properly delegating power?"
Feng Ye's face was solemn: "Datong is the most important line of defense for our dynasty, because it has resisted the most brutal barbarians for the people of the Central Plains. Although Oala has been hit hard now, there are still dozens of tribes in the Mongolian area, all of whom are eyeing the Central Plains. With the decline of Wala, these tribes will lose control, gradually go their own way, regenerate into new forces, and sooner or later they will make a comeback, so Datong cannot reduce its armaments. It doesn’t matter if my father is arbitrarily authoritarian or autocratic. If my father is really rebellious, there is no need to wait until now .”
Yan Sikong sighed secretly in his heart: "... Let me discuss it with the teacher first." Although he respected King Jingyuan's achievements, he was not optimistic about many of King Jingyuan's actions. Guo Ziyi, who has no doubts about Gao Zhen's lord, has actually reminded him that the emperor is very afraid of King Jingyuan, and if things go on like this, it may be detrimental to the Feng family.
But Fengye was arrogant and conceited, and his analysis of the situation in Datong was indeed reasonable, so it would be even more difficult for King Jingyuan to take the initiative to delegate power.
Now that Jingcha has created a big problem for them.
Feng Ye stretched out his arms and hugged him: "I know what you're thinking."
"yes?"
"Han Xin, Meng Tian, Lu Xun, Yue Fei, you are thinking of those famous generals who died because of their high achievements, right?"
Yan Sikong remained silent.
Feng Ye smiled and said, "My father won't become them, do you know why?"
"why?"
"Today's Holy Majesty is weak, addicted to debauchery, and has no intention of governing the country. He is afraid of Oara to death, and he still relies on me to seal his family and guard the border." Feng Ye said in a frivolous and disdainful tone, "Furthermore, I am a hostage in Beijing. As long as my father doesn't When I return to the imperial court, he will never do anything to seal me off from my family."
Yan Sikong let out a sigh of relief: "It's not unreasonable."
"So don't worry." Feng Ye lifted Yan Sikong's chin, touched his lips, and said softly, "My father has been loyal and brave all his life, and he has never had any second thoughts. His only wish is to protect our Chinese people from barbarians. Intrusion, this record can be learned from the sun and the moon, and the heavens will stand on his side."
Yan Sikong forced a smile: "Very good."
"So..." Feng Ye stroked Yan Sikong's lower lip with his fingertips, and said in a domineering tone, "I must have a way to promise Wanyang to others, and you can only be mine."
Yan Sikong looked at the burning flames in Feng Ye's eyes, and his heart was full of worry.
