Chapter 119 Dispute
This is when we see that the Fang family is prospering, and the prime ministers and princes-in-law are full of nobles, coveting the ancestral graves of the Fang family!
Although the Fang family is not rich, they are not short of money. What's more, there is also Fang Xuanling who is a servant of the court. If he sells the land of his ancestral grave, wouldn't he be laughed to death?
The two families refused to give in to each other, so they were deadlocked.
Although the elder Fang Song was seriously ill at that time, he was still conscious. He asked his children and grandchildren not to tell Fang Xuanling about the matter and to postpone it for a while. Therefore, the letter to Fang Xuanling a few days ago did not mention this matter.
Unexpectedly, the condition of the eldest master Fang Song deteriorated so quickly and he passed away within a few days. This matter eventually became a serious concern.
Fang Jun asked curiously: "Where did the Wu family come from?"
No matter how bad the Fang family is, there is still a servant who is shooting at the back and beating him in the back. Even the powerful Jiangnan families with five surnames and seven sects would not dare to bully them so unscrupulously, right? Blocking someone's ancestral grave from opening to the public is definitely a way to offend someone to death. Is the Wu family going crazy?
Fang Yixun said helplessly: "The Wu family is just a local wealthy businessman. They have a lot of property in Qizhou, but that's all. But his family has a niece who is twenty-eight years old and has a beautiful face. She was sent to the Prince of Qi's Mansion. He is deeply favored by the King of Qi, and he always protects the Wu family..."
Fang Jun understood.
According to Li You's temperament, he is the most lustful. When he meets a stunning woman, he will be extremely happy. Even if he wants to pick the stars in the sky, he will not care about the Fang family or whose family. This person is the most defensive person.
Besides, there may not be any desire to take revenge on Fang Jun.
Back in Zuixian Tower, Li You had been humiliated by his beating, and he was even scolded and expelled by His Majesty Li Er. How could he not hold a grudge?
It seems that I can’t just ignore this matter...
After thinking about it, he said: "You carry out the funeral according to the steps. As for the cemetery, leave it to someone. It will never delay the uncle's burial."
This was said very calmly, just like talking about a small family matter, with almost no emotional fluctuations.
Also, others may be afraid of Qi Wang Li You, but will Fang Jun be afraid?
He was just thinking about how to deal with this matter satisfactorily. If beating Li You could solve the problem, Fang Jun would go to Prince Qi's Mansion and slap him without saying a word.
Does Li You have nothing to worry about after leaving Chang'an?
Bullshit!
As long as Li You doesn't want to rebel, he doesn't dare to do anything to Fang Jun. If he hurts Fang Jun, how will His Majesty Li Er explain to Fang Xuanling? What's more, Fang Jun is Li You's future brother-in-law... It's true that Li You is impulsive and his IQ is not high, but he is not a fool.
Why did Li You rebel later?
Does he really think that he has the ability to overthrow his father's iron-clad throne?
It was just that he was repeatedly reprimanded by His Majesty Li Er to the point where he lost his mind and his confidence collapsed.
So the first thing he did after making up his mind to rebel was to kill Quan Wanji. It was this guy who chattered endlessly and talked about moral articles, who snitched to His Majesty Li Er again and again, so that Li You could The image in his father's eyes completely collapsed...
He rebelled just because he wanted to tell his wise and powerful father: I, Li You, also have the blood of the Li family!
Don’t believe it?
Let’s take a look at what Li You did after his rebellion: In March of 643 (the 17th year of Zhenguan), Li You recruited all the men in the city who were over fifteen years old, and privately appointed his right-hand men as Shangzhuguo and Kaifu Yitong. Officials such as the Third Division opened the treasury to pay rewards, drove the people into the city to serve as soldiers, arranged official offices, and named their close followers as King Tuoxi, King Tuodong, etc. Li You, Yan Hongliang and other five people feast together with their princess dream every day...
We will not discuss His Majesty Li Er's civil and martial arts, but his ability to give birth to a son may only be matched by Kangxi.
This is not about the quantity of sons, but about the quality.
Li Chengqian, Li Ke, Li Tai, Li You, Li Zhi...
No matter what the outcome is, who is not talented in literature, military skills, and wisdom?
So, would Li You be so stupid that after the rebellion, he would "feast together and think he has achieved success"? Would you be so stupid as to think "Yan Hongliang said: 'Don't worry, we will drink wine with our right hand, and kill with the sword for the king with our left hand.' Li You favored Yan Hongliang and was very happy to hear this"?
What nonsense...
The truth of the matter should be that Li You did not resist at all!
He knew in his heart that he would never be able to defeat his father, and he was afraid! The reason why he rebelled was just to express his attitude. He, Li You, was not as incompetent and useless as Quan Wanji had repeatedly submitted letters!
What's more, Li You's rebellion happened five or six years later, and he was forced by Quan Wanji.
Will he rebel now?
Of course not.
As long as Li You didn't want to rebel, he couldn't do anything to Fang Jun.
Therefore, Fang Jun has the confidence.
But how do brothers Fang Yi Xun know where Fang Jun's confidence comes from?
After hearing what Fang Jun said so calmly and calmly, Fang Yijian couldn't bear it anymore...
"Yi Ai, I know that you have always been domineering in Chang'an, and you don't obey anyone and are not afraid of anyone. But you have to know that Qizhou is not Chang'an, and the King of Qi is different after leaving Chang'an. Your prestige in Chang'an, I'm afraid You can’t trick Qizhou...”
As he spoke, he looked very disdainful.
Fang Yixun's character was much more honest and stable than Fang Yijian's. Hearing this, he reprimanded: "We are all brothers, why are we sarcastic in our words? And what Yiai said, whether he succeeds or not, is for the sake of his family. Please apologize to your beloved quickly!”
The eldest brother is like a father. Fang Yijian was so scolded that she blushed, but she was too shy to say anything. She could only clasp her fists and say to Fang Jun: "I'm rude to you, brother, don't blame me..."
Fang Jun didn't take it seriously, but he still had a bit of magnanimity, and said with a smile: "Eldest brother also said that we are all brothers, why should we be so polite? Whatever you think in your heart, then say it, who will still care about it? Second Brother, you underestimate me.”
Fang Yixun was still waiting to say anything, but someone came in and said that the mourning hall outside was no longer suitable. The clan elder asked the filial son to go out.
Fang Yixun then said: "I love you, please rest here and go out for a visit for me."
Fang Jun also stood up: "My uncle is dead, how can I sit still? Let's go and see together."
Immediately, the three brothers walked out together.
********
After the funeral hall was decorated, the old man's body was taken out, placed on it, bathed and changed.
The bath water is boiled with rice water and spices are added to it. Wet the grizzly and comb the hair, then tie it with a ribbon, wipe the body clean with a cloth, trim the sideburns, beard and nails, put the hair and nails in a small bag, and put them in the coffin during the burial . Cover your face with a square towel and still cover yourself with the quilt.
Today's procedures have been completed, and we are just waiting for the funeral ceremony to be carried out tomorrow, and the burial ceremony to be carried out the day after tomorrow.
There was a sudden commotion outside.
A servant at home came in and reported: "His Royal Highness the King of Qi has come to express his condolences!"
Everyone in the room was shocked.
His Highness King Qi?
The Wu family, relying on the support of His Highness King Qi, almost occupied our family's ancestral tombs, and became a formidable enemy that would never stop fighting! Why did King Qi come to express his condolences in person?
Although I was surprised in my heart, King Qi is His Majesty's biological son and the current prince. Who dares to treat him lightly?
Immediately everyone went out to greet him.
Fang Jun walked slowly behind, with a half-smile on his lips.
As expected, this boy came in person. It seems that he was right as he expected...
