Chapter 974 The Eternal Mirror
The landlady's eyes were bright, and she stared at the two little girls and asked Fang Jun: "I mean, Erlang, whose child is this? Has he been married to his in-laws?"
The owner of the clothing store next to him chuckled and said: "You can pull it off! Have you seen the clothes on this little girl's body? That is the best Sichuan embroidery. This set is worth half of your shop! You can stay with Erlang. He must be the child of a noble family, can you afford it?”
When the proprietress saw it, she was also discouraged, but she was a little embarrassed and retorted: "If you can't climb it, you can't climb it. Think about it, can't you do it?"
Before Fang Jun could respond, Princess Hengshan had already blinked her big eyes and said in a sweet voice: "I haven't said goodbye to you yet. My father said that we have to wait for another two years. Aunt, do you want to say goodbye to me? That's it." Just ask your father!”
As soon as the words were spoken, the whole place fell into silence.
My palace?
Father?
And this is Her Royal Highness the Princess!
They both live around Chang'an, and have heard a lot about some things in the palace. Judging by the age of the two little girls, you can tell that they must be Princess Jinyang and Princess Hengshan, His Majesty's favorite young girls.
You can joke with Fang Jun as much as you like. After all, although Fang Jun has a high position, he is always approachable. Moreover, everyone makes a living on the Fang family's farm. Strictly speaking, they are all slaves and guests of the Fang family, and they are members of the family.
But this is not possible when facing the princess, you must follow the etiquette.
Immediately everyone on the street bent down and saluted, shouting loudly: "I have seen Her Royal Highness..."
There were many people and the momentum was great.
After all, the two little princesses had rarely experienced the scene of so many people saluting at the same time. They were a little nervous, so they held Fang Jun's hands tightly, not knowing what to do.
Fang Jun said helplessly: "Everyone is free of charge."
"No!"
The pedestrians and merchants responded and immediately dispersed.
This is Her Royal Highness the Princess. If she says something wrong, wouldn't it be bad luck? It's better to stay away.
The landlady turned pale with fright and wished she could give herself a big mouth! What did you just say? Want to marry Her Highness the Princess? Oops, I’m going to die. This is...
He looked at Fang Jun with eyes full of prayer.
Fang Jun waved his hand and said: "It's okay, it's okay. Go and do your business."
The landlady thanked her profusely and slipped back into the shop, not daring to show her head.
Princess Hengshan was very disappointed. There were so many people talking and laughing and praising her beauty just now, but why were they all gone in the blink of an eye?
Princess Jinyang was more sensible. She took Fang Jun's hand, raised her face and said, "Shall we go back to the village?"
Fang Jun nodded. Since the identity of the princess was exposed, there was no point in walking around. Even though there were not many people on the street now, they must be hiding at the door and watching...
Holding the hands of the two little princesses, she walked along the street towards the farm. When she passed by a steamed bun shop, she suddenly heard an old voice saying: "You are leading a royal nobleman through the market. If something goes wrong, Fang Jun, you can take the responsibility." ”
Fang Jun felt angry, who is this?
Looking around, he saw a carriage parked at the door of the bun shop, and several servant-looking people guarding the door.
Looking through the open door of the store, he saw an old man with white hair and beard sitting on the seat next to the window, glaring at him.
I'm going!
How did you meet this old thing?
Fang Jun looked unhappy, let go of the hands of the two princesses, clasped his fists and saluted: "It turns out to be Duke Zheng. I'm so polite, junior."
It turned out to be Wei Zheng, the "eternal human being"...
It was really unseemly to lead the two princesses through the market. If this old stubborn man caught him, he might not be able to get away with a lecture.
However, given Wei Zheng's age and status, he couldn't be too rude, so he led the two princesses into the bun shop.
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he ran away a long time ago...
The two princesses naturally recognized Wei Zheng. Princess Jinyang tugged on her sister's sleeve, and the two sisters saluted Wei Zheng together: "I have met Uncle Wei."
All the children of His Majesty Li Er would call the ministers by their official positions to show respect when they saw them. Only these two little princesses were always called "uncle and uncle" under the connivance of His Majesty Li Er.
This is also a manifestation of the closeness between the royal family and the ministers. Even the stubborn Wei Zheng was happy to hear it and did not criticize it.
At this moment, seeing the two little princesses giving gifts in a decent manner, showing their royal dignity, the old man's face turned into a chrysanthemum smile, he stood up tremblingly and returned the gift, and said happily: "I have also met the two highnesses, the two highnesses Zhong Lingyuxiu , looking rosy, the veteran was very pleased. ”
Princess Hengshan was much younger and not familiar with Wei Zheng. Princess Jinyang often played with His Majesty Li Er in the imperial study. She was very familiar with Wei Zheng, so she stepped forward and blinked her eyes with concern and asked: "Isn't Uncle Wei sick? Why are you still walking around? You should take care of yourself. It’s true that my father sighed in the palace several times and was worried about your health.”
That cute little face showed sincere concern. Even if he was as stubborn as Wei Zheng, his heart was warm and happy. He stroked his beard and laughed: "When people get old, the parts of their bodies are broken. They are always You will get sick from time to time, so it’s not a big deal. Your Majesty is weak, so be careful about getting cold.”
Princess Jinyang said obediently: "Si Zi can save it. Look, Uncle Wei, he is wearing very thick clothes!"
Wei Zheng nodded with a smile, and then turned to Fang Jun and his face changed instantly: "That's nonsense! Don't you know that His Highness Jinyang is weak? It's too much to take her walking on the street in such a cold day!"
< br>
Fang Jun sighed, took out his ears, sat on the seat in front of Wei Zheng, and said helplessly: "You are always worried about yourself, you are almost dying, and you still have endless worries to worry about. .”
A tall young man next to Wei Zheng suddenly shouted angrily: "Fang Jun, you are so rude to my father, you are a bastard!"
Fang Jun glanced sideways at him and recognized Wei Zheng's eldest son, Wei Shuyu.
This boy is a wilted gourd, he is about the same age as Du He's eldest son Sun Chong, and he usually stays in the house not knowing what to do. If you can't study well, you can't do anything. You have a good skin in vain and have no merit.
How could he have half the courage of his father Wei Zheng?
Fang Jun said coldly: "Wei Shuyu, don't think that because I am here, I don't dare to hit you!"
Wei Shuyu choked and blushed. Just when he was about to retaliate, Wei Zheng frowned and waved at him: "Go and wait outside the door for a while. This kid is just a stick. Why are you messing with him?"
Wei Shuyu almost cried, Dad, am I standing up for you, okay?
But he didn't dare to refute even half of his father's words, not to mention that he was really scared of Fang Jun. If he had to be tough in front of his father, he wouldn't dare to fight with Fang Jun even to death!
Hearing this, he turned around and went out obediently.
Looking at his son's back, Wei Zheng sighed: "There is no successor..."
A look of disappointment.
Fang Jun asked the two little princesses to sit down and ordered the shopkeeper to put some of his specialty pastries on the table. Princess Hengshan took a bite of the bun and spat it out. She frowned and said in disgust: "It's not delicious."
Nonsense, can it be compared with your royal chef?
Fang Jun ignored her and said to Wei Zheng: "The way of heaven is to make up for the excess of damage, complement each other with yin and yang, and combine hardness and softness. You have been tough all your life. If the younger generation continues to be tough, it will inevitably be too much and not enough. According to the younger generation, Look, softer is better.”
Why would it be too much to continue to be as stubborn as you in the next life?
You have gone too far in your life!
When you were alive, you had a tough fight with His Majesty Li Er. Whether His Majesty Li Er really regarded you as a "mirror of the ages" to show his own gains and losses to establish a supervision for himself, or he used you to show his "great mind" to the world, His Majesty Li Er can tolerate it.
But before you die, you still want to record the words of your admonishment to His Majesty Li Er...
This is causing trouble.
Why did Wei Zheng achieve such a high status in his life? Because he has been working tirelessly and perseveringly, regardless of life and death, to do one thing - admonishment.
How do you explain the word "admonishment"?
At its simplest, that's "discourage." It was precisely because His Majesty Li Er was wrong that Wei Zheng spoke out and remonstrated. What's even more speechless is that before Wei Zheng died, he actually recorded what he said and gave it to Chu Suiliang, the living man. What do you think of His Majesty Li Er?
In this way, those conversations will definitely appear in the history books intact.
Using His Majesty Li Er's reputation to fulfill your own reputation as a "mirror through the ages", aren't you seeking your own death? (End of chapter)
