"Huaiying!" A middle-aged man shouted in a low voice, "Please be careful!"
The woman looked angry and turned her head proudly.
Feng Zhiwei slowly put down the tea cup.
She did not show anger or expression, but she remained so calm and silent. The seven or eight people around her felt that the air in the tent was tense and cold. They were sitting in a relatively spacious place, but suddenly they felt crowded and uneasy. Moving body.
Feng Zhiwei remained silent. Everyone gradually showed embarrassment and looked at her at a loss.
For a while Feng Zhiwei said lightly: "The tea is cold."
What does this mean? The Yan family, who were oppressed by Feng Zhiwei's silence, looked at each other in confusion upon hearing this irrelevant sentence, but Yan Huaishi had already stood up from the shadow of the tent door and said: "There are not enough people waiting here, so I will make tea. ”
"Wait a minute." Feng Zhi smiled and said, "You are a grown man, what are you doing in a hurry to make tea and pour water? You, the Yan family's Nanhai clan, have strict rules. Who should go to this meeting place full of men? Waiter, Grandpa naturally understands, so you don’t need to worry about it.”
Tai Gong Yan was startled, his face turned pale, and he immediately said: "Yes, I am rude, Huaiying, why don't you give tea to the imperial envoy and all your uncles and brothers!"
"I won't go!" The woman raised her head, her pink face turned pale with anger, and her fingers were trembling, "I am the eldest lady of the Yan family, I have nothing to do with waiting on others!"
"Huaiying, don't be willful!" The middle-aged man scolded him again. Judging by his appearance, he must be Yan Huaiying's father. He looked angry and regretful now.
Tai Gong Yan also frowned, thinking that he heard that the imperial envoy was young and brought a few proud juniors to meet him. Maybe the young people could talk better and get closer. He didn't want Huaiying to be fine on weekdays, but when he met Huaishi Things have lost their composure. How will it end now?
The imperial envoy looks young, but he is not like his own children. He has also heard about the scene on the big ship at the pier during the day. How can he be an ordinary person if he can force King Zhou Bawang to board the ship and light a fire? It’s not like there have never been imperial envoys to Nanhai, some were forced to leave by Overlord Zhou on the spot!
He had a shy face and quickly wanted to smooth things over, but Feng Zhiwei didn't look at them. She picked up the tea cup again, slowly blew the foam on the tea surface, took a sip and sneered.
This laughter made everyone unable to sit still, not to mention that the adults were serving tea to see off the guests, so they had to stand up and leave.
The woman stood up angrily first and kicked Maza aside. Feng Zhiwei opened the lid of the tea cup and looked at it lightly, with a trace of contempt in her eyes.
Yan Huaishi followed them out, and Feng Zhiwei suddenly said: "Huaishi, you stay."
From the shadow of the curtain, she saw Grand Duke Yan turning sideways and giving Yan Huaishi a warning look before leaving.
"What's going on?" Feng Zhiwei put down the tea cup and got straight to the point.
Yan Huaishi remained silent. Feng Zhiwei thought about the expressions and tones of those people just now. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She said solemnly: "Don't think that the affairs of the Shipping Affairs Department can only be led by your Yan family. His Majesty once promised I have the power to make special decisions when it comes to matters, and any of the five great aristocratic families in Nanhai, including Yan, Chen, Huang, Li, and Shangguan, can do it!"
"Don't!" Yan Huaishi said urgently, "They are only targeting me, and they will never dare to be disrespectful to you."
"What are you targeting? Why did you let it happen? What on earth made them hostile to you?" Feng Zhiwei's eyes were like needles, and three questions came one after another.
When she first met Yan Huaishi outside Qingming Academy, she always thought that this descendant of the Yan family was trying his best to find a career in the capital in the hope of becoming famous in order to increase his leverage as the head of the family. Now it seems that he is just I'm afraid that such a good thing has not happened yet, let alone the head of the family, even if he has made such a great contribution, he will be robbed by others.
Yan Huaishi is not an idiot. There must be a reason for him to give in willingly.
Yan Huaishi still shook his head, as if he had something to hide. Feng Zhiwei looked at him, silent for a while, and said, "Tomorrow, ask the Yan family to arrange a house for us, and His Highness and I will live there."
Yan Huaishi trembled and raised his head. He knew that Feng Zhiwei had a very cautious temperament. He would not arbitrarily incline his attitude toward anyone without thoroughly investigating the Yan family and resolving the conflicts between the aristocratic family and the government and the people. The person who caused the conflict is now determined to help him.
"Brother Wei...Master...I..." Yan Huaishi's lips wriggled, trembling and unable to speak.
"I told you, don't call me "Sir". We have known each other since we were young, and our houses in the Imperial Capital are still connected to each other. As long as we don't betray, we will always be brothers." Feng Zhi smiled slightly, "Also, I like When we first met in Qingming Academy, you were the shrewd and powerful person who wanted to buy my clothes, instead of the stranger who gives in now."
"Be yourself." She stood up and walked outside. "Everything has a bottom line. No matter what unspeakable secrets there are, no matter what reason you are unfairly treated, you don't need to tolerate it anymore when you reach the bottom line. If you tolerate it, I won't allow it." You endure it."
"The Chang Incident is imminent. If the South China Sea cannot be integrated quickly, it will be controlled by Chang's forces. The Shipping Affairs Department is just a pretext. I must conquer the entire South China Sea through the success of this matter. The South China Sea must be me. "." Feng Zhiwei's slender figure was reflected in the moonlight outside the tent, her tone was gentle and resounding, "So, the Yan family must be yours."
We spent the night in a tent, and on the next day Yan Huaishi arranged to live in the Yan family's villa "Open Garden". Ning Yi had no objection to Feng Zhiwei's decision, but the Nanhai officials had strong objections, but Objection is useless.
Feng Zhiwei has made people understand the conflict between the Nanhai family and the people. In the past, the Nanhai was a barren land. After the sea ban was imposed, some knowledgeable people relied on their foresight and quick actions to make a fortune early. Development was inevitable. Where there is embezzlement, there is expansion and there is plundering. In the process of competing for rich sea areas and various resources, it is inevitable that innocent people will be implicated. When the previous chief envoy was in the South China Sea, he had a close relationship with aristocratic families and caused some harm. As for the people, the worst thing was that the Shangguan family seized a good piece of land offshore to build the largest ship to enter and exit the port, and drove the people who originally lived there to a shallow beach. As a result, a sea surge broke out overnight and the people were hastily swept away. All the shacks they built were washed away and carried away, and a village was almost wiped out. In addition, most of the people in Nanhai were employees of aristocratic families, so the masters and servants had grievances. It can be said that the grievances have been entangled for a long time.
