Promotion Letter for the Chief Executive

In fact, even if Ping An didn't think of Feng Yutang, Feng Yutang planned to write to him to tell him about his progress.

After years of planning, Feng Yutang has made a lot of preparations.His talents are reflected in this kind of preliminary work-intelligence collection, collation, overall arrangement and planning.As for specific actions, it would be a waste to ask him to do it.

So the next thing will be handed over to others, and he can free up his time to do other things.

Feng Yutang still remembers that Ping An made an agreement with him at the beginning, giving him a few years to complete the layout of the northwest, and then let him go to the south of the Yangtze River to help.At this time, it is almost the same.

So it was unexpected for Feng Yutang to receive the letter from Ping An asking him to return to Beijing, but it was also reasonable.

Since Xiping left the capital in 17 years, Feng Yutang has not been back to the capital for eight years.The still immature 15-year-old boy who was taught by Ping An back then has also become a resolute young man who can directly intervene in important military affairs.

Returning to the capital again, Feng Yutang originally thought that he would have a lot of emotion in his heart, but the fact is that he was quite calm.

In fact, although the capital is the place where he grew up and his hometown, it is not friendly to Feng Yutang.The reason why he entered the Imperial City Division at such a young age was, in the final analysis, because there was no one to support the lintel in his family, his parents were both dead and even lost his parents, and he had no choice but to survive.

If Ping An hadn't appeared, he might have remained an ordinary marriage pawn in the Imperial City Division. Like countless seniors, he was busy going back and forth for trivial matters, doing nothing for half his life, marrying an ordinary wife, and having children.

If he was always in that environment, maybe he wouldn't feel that there was anything wrong, right?But now that Feng Yutang has jumped out of it, looking back, he feels that the numb and mediocre days are scalp-numbing and unbearable.

In this mood, even though the power that now controls the secrets of the Northwest can almost turn the clouds into clouds and rain, Feng Yutang has no regrets about returning home.

Because he has already stood at a high enough height and can see more things clearly, naturally he has lost some of the cares and fetters among the world of mortals.

After riding his horse into the city, Feng Yutang went straight to the palace without making any adjustments.

In fact, his current status is a bit embarrassing. In terms of importance, he can almost stand shoulder to shoulder with the Northwest Governor, but his real position is only a deputy commander under the Imperial City Division.This status is too low, and there is no qualification to meet the emperor if he is not specially called.

So after he came back, it is reasonable to say that he should report to the Imperial City Division first, get repaired, and then send a message to Pingan, waiting for the summon.

But Ping An had already thought of all these in advance, and the letter asked him to go directly to the palace gate to ask for an interview, and someone would inform him.

Sure enough, just as Feng Yutang handed over his identity letter, the captain of the guard on duty at the gate of the palace immediately sent someone in to report, and then invited Feng Yutang to the next room to rest.

As royal guards, these guards of course also have their own pride. It has become the norm to look at people with their nostrils only with their eyes on the top of their heads.Especially for guarding the palace gate, even the prime minister, if there is no prior arrangement, he will have to wait for them to pass through before entering.

They have reason to be proud of such an important position.

But their attitude towards Feng Yutang today was so kind that one could wonder if they had gone to the wrong place.Feng Yutang was okay, although he was suspicious, but thinking of Ping An's ability, since he was allowed to enter the palace, he would not let himself be treated coldly here, he should have greeted him in advance.

He can understand, but the other side is also registered here, the officials waiting to be summoned can't understand!

Both of them came back from other places. Judging from the identity of the other party, it is estimated that the official position is not as high as their own, but it is surprising that they can receive such courtesy?

These people were both envious and jealous, and they each had their own plans, not to mention, Feng Yutang came to the room where the guards were resting, and after sitting down, he said, "Thank you, Captain."

"You're welcome," the captain looked at Feng Yutang nonchalantly, "Our superiors told us to treat you well, so naturally we dare not neglect."

Although his gaze was hidden, what was Feng Yutang's background?In this regard, there is probably no one in Dachu who can beat him in this regard, so naturally he can see the other party's expression in his eyes.He thought that these people were treated so politely for the sake of safety, but now it seems that it is not.

Feng Yutang pondered in his heart, could there be some other reason?

The fact is indeed as he guessed.The team on duty today belonged to the Xiaoqi Guards, under the jurisdiction of Xiaoqi General Tianshu, and the instructions he received naturally came from Tianshu.

The captain's name is Cao Zhang.The family is a generation of relatives, who can manage a team of people in the imperial army, barely enough to be on the side of the middle-level generals.So he had heard rumors before that the imperial court planned to open a martial arts school to recruit mid-level officers and generals for training.

Although Cao Zhang didn't know the more specific regulations, after Tianshu personally told him to receive Feng Yutang well, he let him figure out something.

I heard that the four generals are busy with the martial arts school recently, and they will also become teachers in the school in the future.Feng Yutang returned to Beijing at this time, and was so valued by Tianshu, Cao Zhang naturally guessed that he had something to do with Wu Xuetang.The students have not yet settled down, so who else can come here now?

Thinking that he may also enter the martial arts school to study in the future, and the person in front of him is likely to be one of the teachers, Cao Zhang's attitude towards Feng Yutang is understandable.

He faintly looked at Feng Yutang, also because he couldn't believe it. ——Originally he was very confident in his own judgment, but after meeting Feng Yutang, he became a little uncertain.

Feng Yutang is only 24 years old when he is full of life. Because he is busy on the way back to Beijing, coupled with years of professional habits, he will always subconsciously hide his edge, so he looks very inconspicuous. It is hard to believe that he will be What a big shot.

Although the four generals of the imperial guards are not very old, they should be less than 30 years old, but they all look extremely imposing, and people dare not ignore them.It is completely different from Feng Yutang.

So after Cao Zhang became suspicious, he couldn't help but want to test it out.

So after a while, the two had already chatted happily, and Cao Zhang took the initiative to take out the snacks for Feng Yutang that he put here for the toothbrush ceremony when he was on duty.

When the soldiers who went to report came back, the two already hated seeing each other, and Cao Zhang felt a little bit reluctant to let Feng Yutang leave like this.

However, after Feng Yutang left, he recalled what the two had said just now, and couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.Not only did he not find anything useful from Feng Yutang, he almost revealed the old secrets of his eight generations of ancestors.

Who is this?Cao Zhang looked at the direction Feng Yutang was leaving in surprise and suspicion, and only then did he understand how clever the other party was.

Here Feng Yutang finally saw peace.

Seeing that he was covered in dust, Ping An couldn't help but patted his forehead, "It's because I'm dizzy, I should let you go home and fix it first."

"I'm fine," Feng Yutang swept his head down and said with a smile, "I'm afraid I will have an audience with His Majesty later, this appearance is a bit inappropriate, in case of collision..."

"No." Pingan quickly waved his hand, "Your Majesty doesn't care about these things. But I'll arrange for you to go and freshen up first. It just so happens that His Majesty is busy with some things, so you won't be free for the time being. You take a rest first, and we'll see him again."

Feng Yutang couldn't help but take another look at Ping An.

When he was in Northwest before, although he and Pingan could meet more, but after all, there were too many people, and it was not suitable for high-profile at that time, so every time he was in a hurry.Although Zhao Can was also in the northwest at the time, he didn't have the chance to meet him. Naturally, he didn't know how Ping An and Zhao Can got along.

But even though they just met, Feng Yutang still heard a little strange meaning from Ping An's few words.

Ping An is in Tiangan Palace, like a master.And the attitude towards Zhao Can is also very subtle. —by no means the attitude of subordinates towards their superiors, or even of slaves towards their masters.

Although Feng Yutang did not intend to analyze the meaning of peace, his professional habits made him analyze it subconsciously after discovering doubts.And this clue is enough for him to see many things.

Feng Yutang didn't think deeply.Although Ping An did not hide it, it was trust in him, but because of this, he could not be unscrupulous.

After taking a bath and changing clothes, he had already adjusted his mentality. When facing Ping An, he had a natural attitude, as if he hadn't found anything.

Ping An smiled and beckoned him to sit down, "Before His Majesty comes back, let me give you a brief introduction..."

"Wait, let me guess." Feng Yutang said, "This time I was asked to return to Beijing to open a martial arts school and recruit middle-level generals from all over the world to study in it? I think what your lord means is to use this method Strengthen the control of the army in various places? After all, these middle-level officers may be able to command an army in the future. In addition, young people are quick-minded, and it is easier to accept the things taught by beating people. It is so subtle that it will be implemented when the time is right in the future. Change, of course, can be accomplished in one fell swoop. Am I right?"

Ping An looked at him in surprise, "That's right. How did you know? Did you really just come out?"

I haven't seen you for a few years. Could it be that Feng Yutang has reached this point?

Feng Yutang smiled and said, "The latter is guessed. The previous news was obtained by talking to someone while resting at the gate of the palace."

He is not a god, so it is naturally impossible to guess the purpose of peace out of thin air.It's just a little news from Cao Zhang.

Although Cao Zhang didn't know it clearly, but who was Feng Yutang?With his ability, knowing the beginning, he can almost deduce the whole thing.He even guessed about the purpose of peace.

"So that's the case." Ping An couldn't help laughing, "It seems that there are quite a few people in the court who are well-informed."

Now that Feng Yutang had already guessed it, there was no need to talk about Ping An. He was about to ask about the Northwest, when a young eunuch came to tell him that Zhao Can was over and invited him to come over.

"Then let's go." Ping An stood up and said, "Your Majesty is very interested in the affairs in the northwest, and you will be able to clarify this matter later and explain it, so that you can free up your hands to deal with martial arts matters." .”

Ping An took Feng Yutang into the Hall of Benchu, and everyone he met along the way would back away and salute, without any intention of notifying him at all.This attitude made a certain guess in Feng Yutang's heart more obvious.

Zhao Can was sitting behind the imperial case reviewing the memorial, when he heard the voice, he raised his head.

He had known for a long time that there was such a man under Ping An's hands, but by chance, he had never come into contact with it.At this time, when I finally saw Feng Yutang, I couldn't help but look at him attentively. Seeing that he was dignified and calm, with a calm attitude, I couldn't help but nodded.

People who can be valued by Ping An are certainly not simple, but Feng Yutang performed better than Zhao Can imagined.

Zhao Can can say with certainty that among his peers, even if Feng Yutang is not the best, he must be one of the top few.

This recognition gave Zhao Can some not-so-good feelings.

If it is carefully distinguished, it should be his vague wariness and dislike towards Feng Yutang.It's not that Feng Yutang is so good that Zhao Can thinks he can threaten her, but for Zhao Can, the importance Ping An attaches to Feng Yutang makes him even more vigilant.

Although Ping An knows a lot of people, there are not many who can really reach his heart.And Feng Yutang is one of these few people, and... so long ago, when Zhao Can was still thinking of taking advantage of Ping An, Feng Yutang had already given his loyalty to Ping An, even though Ping An arranged for him to stay in the northwest Even after eight years, this kind of loyalty has not changed in the slightest.

Ping An is excellent, and his personal charm is unquestionable. Zhao Can knew this very well before, but he never had a very specific cognition—even if there was an Oolong-like Wen Chengbi, he hardly saw it in his eyes.

But Feng Yutang is different.Because Ping An attaches great importance to him, this kind of attention is specifically reflected in the fact that Ping An has been very excited since knowing that Feng Yutang is coming back, and even ignored him several times.

So now Zhao Can has a weird attitude towards Feng Yutang that is both picky and satisfied.

Feng Yutang was keenly aware of the scrutiny and evaluation in his eyes, but he only thought it was one of the emperor's judgments on him, so he didn't pay much attention to it.After saluting, he began to talk about the arrangements he had made in the northwest.

Because these things will be handed over to others in the future, Feng Yutang explained it very carefully.He also gave simple suggestions on where to arrange who, what is the use, and even how to do it in the future.

Because he spoke without reservation, Zhao Can and Ping An soon discovered that he had woven a tight net over there, and the end of the rope was in his hand. Close the net.

The two looked at each other with serious expressions on their faces.

Although they had guessed that Feng Yutang must have done a lot of work, they didn't expect to be able to do this.He has placed a lot of people in both Xirong and Beidi, and these people are not the kind of pawns to scoop up some useless information, but actually break into the opponent's high-level, and can even influence the opinions of the decision-making layer!

With these people present, the vision of peaceful evolution that Ping An said before may come true!

Even Ping An did not expect Feng Yutang to be able to do this.After all, for what he did, the time given to him was far from enough.But even so, the results he gave were good enough.

Although Zhao Can had a subtle hostility toward Feng Yutang in his heart, he was first and foremost an emperor and would not act on his will.After discovering that Feng Yutang had this kind of talent, he felt that it was a waste for Feng Yutang to preside over the martial arts school, "Has Feng Qing ever thought of going to Hebei to serve the country?"

Ping An turned his head and glared at Zhao Can, "People are inseparable in martial arts now, and my plan here is also very important. Your Majesty can't favor one over another."

Zhao Can thought about it for a while, then let it go, "That's good, if we cultivate a few more talents like Feng Qing, why don't we worry about our country being permanent?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your attention, I will never give up." Feng Yutang said.

Zhao Can was very satisfied with his attitude.Although the attitude is calm, Mr. Mian is not nervous or lost, but there is still due respect.Thinking about it this way, I feel better, "Feng Qing has done so many things for me, Da Chu, and I will naturally reward you. I wonder what Feng Qing wants?"

Feng Yutang said without hesitation, "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, but I think it's better to wait until the day when the matter is successful, and then His Majesty rewards you!"

"Okay!" Zhao Can's eyes revealed a look of admiration.Feng Yutang was able to say this because he was extremely confident in his own arrangement, and he didn't think there would be a possibility of failure in this matter, and the success would not be long.

The next step is to Ping An explain to Feng Yutang about the martial arts.

The regulations were initially drafted by Ping An through communication with Zhao Can in advance.After Ping'an finished speaking, he said, "This is just a preliminary idea. I leave the martial arts to you. If you have any ideas, you can talk about them and discuss them."

Feng Yutang said, "I want to transfer a group of people from the Imperial City Division. They are both teachers and students. They can be promoted from here in the future."

Pingan knew that he was talking about the group of people who followed him in the northwest.It stands to reason that these people have worked hard and made great achievements, but at present their achievements cannot be seen in the face of it. It is indeed a good idea to be promoted from martial arts.

He turned to look at Zhao Can, Zhao Can nodded and said, "Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu."

Feng Yutang got up quickly, "I thank Your Majesty for your kindness on their behalf!"

After all, Zhao Can was very busy. While the three of them were talking, the little eunuch who had reported at the door had already entered several times, but was blocked by Zhang Dongyuan.So after speaking, Ping An took Feng Yutang to leave.

When he came out of the original hall, he saw several officials at the door waiting to be summoned.Those who can come to the original hall to seek an audience are naturally important courtiers, and most of them are very old.But there is also a young man in it.

Feng Yutang glanced over there, and Pingan asked in a low voice, "Do you know him?"

"Gu Wenheng?" Feng Yutang said, "I have dealt with people in the northwest. He is a very capable person, but unfortunately he was transferred later. Has he returned to the capital now?"

"Yes." Ping An nodded, "After leaving Northwest, he was transferred to Jiangnan, and he only came back last year."

The reason for this is that the first emperor planned to sharpen him for a few more years so that he could use it for his successor.That being the case, it cannot be too close, nor too far away.He also needs to get enough experience, so he keeps going around outside.

Since he is a talent valued by the late emperor, there are naturally merits, but Zhao Can has not made up his mind on where to put him, so currently he only has a idle job in the Imperial Academy.

But this person is very interesting, whether it was when the first emperor was here or now that Zhao Can is in power, he behaves very calmly, without surprise.And he has one of the most important characteristics, let Ping An know that Zhao Can will definitely use him in the end - he seems to be always alone, and has very little contact with his colleagues, let alone forming cliques.This is a very pure straight minister.

At this time, the two had already walked to a distance. Pingan turned his head and took a look. Seeing Gu Wenheng standing there with his back straight, his eyes fixed and his face serious, he couldn't help but smile slightly, "Yutang, you and him are old acquaintances. I don't know many people in the capital, so we can communicate more."

"Yes." Feng Yutang said understandingly.

After that, Ping An took Feng Yutang to meet Tianshu, Kaiyang and others. This is the team he currently has in martial arts.In other words, these are all that Ping An can give him, and he needs to arrange the rest by himself.

But even so, Feng Yutang was very satisfied.

You must know that when he went to the Northwest, Ping An didn't give anything, and he accomplished these things by himself.

After the two responsible persons were in place, they quickly drew up the criteria for selecting students.Only at this time did Zhao Can formally issue the imperial decree to make the news public.

Because in the eyes of many people, this is just a means for Zhao Can to win people's hearts, so he doesn't pay much attention to the so-called martial arts, especially after hearing that the person in charge is two little-known little people. Ignore it.

However, those honorable families are very enthusiastic about it.Their ancestors were all people who followed the Taizu to conquer the country, so they were able to get the title after the founding of the country.But the gap between Martial Lords and civil officials lies here. The emperor was very afraid of them, and gradually alienated the Taizu, and finally only an empty shell Viscount was left to pass on.

From such a family background, even if they do nothing, they can inherit the title and enjoy wealth in the future, so it seems that it is always easy to be a dude and not seek to make progress.Gentleman's Ze, beheaded for five lifetimes, is about the same now.So many families are inevitably declining.

Now I have an opportunity to show my loyalty to the new emperor, how could I not care?
