Chapter 608 Confrontation
Xiao Yu was so angry that his lungs exploded and he almost broke his teeth!
The pain of losing a country and a family, the humiliation of selling oneself as a thief... This was no longer a slap in the face, but a knife was used to cut out a piece of flesh in Xiao Yu's heart. The bloody pain made Xiao Yu miserable!
Xiao Yu was born in the Houliang royal family. He is the seventh son of Xiao Kui, Emperor Ming of Houliang. His great-great-grandfather is Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Houliang, his great-grandfather is Xiao Tong, Prince Zhaoming, his grandfather Xiao Jin is Emperor Xuan of Houliang, his elder brother Xiao Cong is Emperor Jing of Liang, and his sister is Empress Xiao of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty...
Such a prominent and honorable family, but after the Sui Dynasty unified the world, the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed. Xiao Cong, Emperor Jing of the Later Liang Dynasty, was ordered to live in Chang'an for a long time by Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty Yang Jian. Soon after, his brother was executed by Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty...
It can be said that between the Xiao family and the Sui Dynasty, the hatred between the country and the family was as deep as the sea!
However, Xiao Yu did not show the tenacity to swear revenge. Instead, under the arrangement of Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty, he successively served as the minister of internal history and the governor of Hechi, which was equivalent to recognizing a thief as his father and serving as a thief...
How could Xiao Yu not be filled with anger when Fang Jun tore open such an old wound bloody?
More importantly, Xiao Yu has always managed his reputation as an upright and virtuous minister, so he is known as the leader of Qingliu. He was even more important because he surrendered to the Tang Dynasty in his early years and helped His Majesty Li Er avoid the persecution of the hidden prince Li Jiancheng many times before he ascended the throne. He had a transcendent status above the imperial court.
His Majesty Li Er valued Xiao Yu very much and even wrote a poem as a gift to him!
The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the rough waves know the sincere minister.
A brave man must be aware of righteousness, and a wise man must be benevolent!
The first two lines of the poem are famous lines that have been praised throughout the ages. The phrase "The strong wind knows the strong grass" was originally the words of Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, praising Wang Ba: "Everyone who has left me in Yingchuan has passed away, but I am left alone to work hard, and the strong wind knows the strong grass." The "bandang" in the second sentence They are the names of two works in "The Book of Songs·Daya". The two poems "Ban" and "Dang" ridiculed King Li of Zhou for being unruly and corrupting the political situation.
The last two sentences change the angle and continue to praise Xiao Yu.
The "brave man" who is only brave for a moment does not understand the true "righteousness", but the true "wise man" must have benevolence in his heart. The meaning is simple and straightforward. Loyalty alone is not enough. Only one who is wise and courageous can be considered useful. If there is courage but no plan, it is difficult to express righteousness; if there is wisdom but no courage, it is difficult to show kindness.
This is His Majesty Li Er’s highest praise for Xiao Yu’s enduring humiliation after the country’s fall. But now, Fang Jun said that he “served as a thief”...
Even if he was as well-mannered as Xiao Yu, he couldn't help but get furious at this moment!
He glared at Fang Jun fiercely and shouted sternly: "You boy with a yellow mouth, you are extremely arrogant! Even your father would not dare to be so arrogant in front of me. Why are you so bold? You are simply not a son of man!"
Xiao Yu was so angry that he almost exploded, and His Majesty Li Er also felt a little unhappy.
The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the rough waves know the sincere minister. A brave man must be aware of righteousness, and a wise man must be benevolent! This poem was given to Xiao Yu by him. Isn't this little bastard Fang Jun questioning his vision now?
The most irritating thing is the last sentence - you don’t understand the world of genius...
Is it full of disdain and contempt? !
His Majesty Li Er snorted coldly, glared at Fang Jun, and scolded: "If you have something to say, don't talk about what you have or don't have!"
Prince Li Chengqian grinned and was speechless.
After his father ascended the throne, he appointed Xiao Yu as prime minister. However, Xiao Yu did not get along with ministers such as Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng, and they often had conflicts due to political opinions. Although His Majesty Li Er valued Xiao Yu, his status was obviously inferior to that of Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng, so he changed Xiao Yu to the position of Crown Prince and Tutor. When the prime minister was dismissed, Xiao Yu came to the East Palace without any complaints and tutored the prince Li Chengqian very diligently. Li Chengqian was grateful to him.
Nominally, Xiao Yu is Li Chengqian's teacher. Fang Jun can say some things, but Li Chengqian can't...
Xu Jingzong watched with cold eyes, secretly realizing in his heart that Fang Jun was really a mad dog. Anyone who offended him would dare to pounce on him and bite him, causing a piece of flesh to be torn off! It seems that it is better not to provoke this person unless necessary in the future...
Fang Jun bowed to His Majesty Li Er and sincerely admitted his mistake.
Then, he turned around again, looked at Wang Xue'an indifferently, and said: "May I ask your Excellency, this year's Geng Geng?"
Wang Xue'an looked unhappy and was very annoyed by Fang Jun's casual tone. His character has always been rigorous and upright. Even his closest disciples always treat him with a straight face and are not allowed to show intimacy in a glib tone.
However, the emperor was present at this time, so Wang Xue'an could only snort and said: "I am fifty-seven this year. I was literate at the age of five and read history at the age of seven. It has been fifty years now!"
Is this just showing off your qualifications?
Fang Jun didn't take it seriously, sighed, and said with some regret: "It's easy to destroy but hard to build. I have built a reputation all my life, but it was destroyed in a blink of an eye... Although Fang is young, he has a compassionate heart. If he were old, How about keeping silent now, sir, so that you can forget the past and never mention today’s events from now on?”
Hearing what he said, His Majesty Li Er felt relieved.
His Majesty Li Er felt that he had figured out the context of Fang Jun's consistent behavior. This kid is well versed in the art of virtuality and reality. If he is not confident, he will definitely show a strong attack posture, making his opponent frightened and guilty, and it is easy for Fang Jun to seize the opportunity. , turning defeat into victory. On the contrary, if Fang Jun behaves timidly and speaks evasively, it shows that he is very confident!
His Majesty Li Er secretly wondered how the honest and gentle Fang Xuanling could give birth to such a treacherous and cunning son.
It's really strange...
Wang Xue'an's heart suddenly skipped a beat after hearing Fang Jun's words.
He is really guilty...
But when I thought about it again, I felt that Fang Jun's behavior was artificial and contrary to common sense. If he can really produce evidence, can he let himself go? In this age where moral character is highly valued, reputation represents integrity. With a good reputation, you are not afraid of traveling all over the world; if the name is bad, it will be difficult to move forward...
Plagiarism is almost the most serious accusation against a literary person. It is worse than murder and arson. Would Fang Jun let go so easily of an enemy who came to accuse him of plagiarism?
Absolutely not!
Wang Xue'an calmed down. Since Fang Jun was so pretentious and showed his generosity, the real reason must be that he had no choice at all!
Thinking of this, Wang Xue'an snorted coldly and said solemnly: "Although there is no evidence to prove that "The Theory of Ai Lian" was written by someone, there is only one truth. The sun will shine brightly. Why should someone be afraid of being shattered to pieces in pursuit of the truth? There is no need to say anything, Fang Erlang. If you have evidence to prove that "The Theory of Ailian" was written by you, please show it and I will bear any consequences!"
Fang Jun cursed in his heart: The old guy is so cunning...
Previously, he said that "The Story of Ai Lian" was his work, but now he has quietly changed the concept and just said that "The Story of Ai Lian" is not Fang Jun's work. Wang Xue'an couldn't prove that "The Theory of Ailian" was written by him, so he decided that Fang Jun couldn't prove it either!
According to Wang Xue'an's logic, it doesn't matter whether "The Theory of Ai Lian" was written by him. As long as Fang Jun cannot prove that "The Theory of Ai Lian" was written by him, then it will be considered a success...
How did Fang Jun prove that "The Theory of Ai Lian" was written by him?
Unable to prove...
Poems, lyrics, and poems are not living things, and they will not respond to your call. What is particularly important is that according to Wang Xue'an's logic, without corresponding life experience, it is impossible to reach the state of "The Theory of Love and Lotus".
This is very important, and it is also Wang Xue'an's trump card. Even His Majesty Li Er, who prefers Fang Jun in his heart, has a little doubt...
Both the emperor and his son looked at Fang Jun nervously.
Xu Jingzong's mind was spinning rapidly, he thought over and over again, and set up countless possibilities, feeling that it was impossible for Fang Jun to refute Wang Xue'an's point of view. Since it cannot be refuted, Fang Jun has no way to prove himself...
Xu Jingzong's face was expressionless, but he was laughing happily in his heart.
If nothing unexpected happens, Fang Jun will definitely be known as a "plagiarizer". Although it will not be a fatal blow to Fang Jun, after all, this guy is a playboy. As long as Fang Xuanling does not fall, he will survive. It's very nourishing... but the reputation he has gained among scholars may be destroyed in one day. Not only that, for a person with moral flaws, even if the emperor favors him, it will be almost impossible for him to make a difference in the officialdom in the future.
Xiao Yu closed his eyes slightly, suppressing the anger in his heart, waiting to see Fang Jun's joke.
Such a violent person has no regard for the seniority or the younger. If this person succeeds, who knows what kind of waves he will cause in the court! Although Wang Xue'an's point of view is not perfect, it just hits Fang Junzhi seven inches, let's see how he makes waves!
Fang Jun didn't seem to care about everyone's opinions at all. He looked at Wang Xue'an, blinked and asked, "In my opinion, it's impossible for me to understand things that I have never experienced, let alone reach that state, right? ”
Wang Xue'an nodded and said: "Exactly."
Fang Jun laughed...(End of Chapter)
