Chapter 1378 There is a city in my heart
The candle shadow flickers red, and the beauty is in hand.
The maid brought warm water, cleaned the couple's bodies with red faces, and prepared fragrant tea and pastries as a midnight snack, then bowed and left.
Wu Meiniang lay in Fang Jun's arms like a cartilage snake, leaning against his broad and strong chest.
Fang Jun lay on his back comfortably, with one hand behind his head and the other wrapped around the beauty's shoulders and neck, feeling peaceful and comfortable.
"Well, I just made an estimate. I'm afraid the gift this time won't be more than ten or two hundred thousand yuan..."
"Crack!"
"Ouch!"
The snow-white buttocks were slapped, and Wu Meiniang said coquettishly: "Why did you hit me?"
Fang Jun said angrily: "How obsessed with money are you? You are obsessed with money. You are so vulgar!"
"Humph! That's right. I have never read a book and am a commoner. How can I compare to the righteous man who only cares about his husband and wife?"
"Hmm? Husband, can you think this is a mockery?"
"How can I have the courage?"
Fang Jun lowered his head and saw a charming face like a flower and jade, which seemed angry or happy, with red lips lightly spitting out, charming all living beings. He used his arms to lift Wu Meiniang up and kissed her red lips.
Wu Meiniang kissed back softly at first, then her eyes widened suddenly with a look of panic. She clung to Fang Jun's body like a fish, making him unable to move freely. She begged softly: "Good man, please spare me, really. Can't stand it..."
Fang Jun saw that she didn't seem to be faking it, so he gave up.
Hugging each other, quietly experiencing the wonderful feeling of spiritual harmony...
After a long time, Wu Meiniang whispered softly: "Mr. Lang, thank you..."
"Huh?"
Fang Jun was puzzled, "You and I, husband and wife, why do you have to say thank you? Besides, why?"
Wu Meiniang's little head arched into Fang Jun's neck, and she said leisurely: "Of course it's a matter of my two brothers... Not only did Lang Jun not dislike me because of these two bastards, but everything went according to my wishes. I mean, you are so kind.”
In this age where men are superior to women, women have no human rights, and all principles do not apply to women. They are born accessories, and even part of wealth, even if they are golden branches and jade leaves.
Of course, those brave princesses such as Princess Fangling and Princess Gaoyang, who dare to break away from the shackles of the world, dare to break some of the strict rules of ethics and education, and break through some shackles to find themselves beyond the times, are beyond the moral bottom line...
< br>
Never mind that what the Wu brothers did had nothing to do with Wu Meiniang. As long as they were brothers and sisters, Wu Meiniang must be responsible for what the Wu brothers did. Even if the Wu brothers go too far, it may even be the reason for Wu Meiniang to be divorced...
It is extremely rare to be able to completely separate them like Fang Jun. The Wu brothers are Wu brothers and Wu Meiniang is Wu Meiniang.
Wu Meiniang didn't know that this was because Fang Jun was deeply influenced by the moral world of his previous life. She simply thought that this was because Fang Jun loved her and tolerated everything about her.
Fang Jun chuckled softly: "You and I are destined to be husband and wife. The Buddha said, 'Looking back thousands of times in the past life is the only way to pass by each other in this life.' But you and I can meet and get to know each other among all living beings." As a couple, how many times have we looked back and passed each other by? Now that fate has come, it is destined by God."
"Erlang..."
Where in this world have women heard such love words? Even though she is as strong-willed as Wu Meiniang, her voice is trembling with emotions, her heart is overflowing with love, her love is like a burning fire, and she takes the initiative to offer her fragrant lips...

Early the next morning, the spring was bright. Kong Yingda, who had stayed in Jiangnan for a long time, returned to Chang'an. He did not return home immediately, but went to his house with old man Yu Ming.
Fang Xuanling quickly washed and undressed, and took the children of the Fang family to the front door to greet him.
After welcoming the people to the main hall and sitting down respectively, Fang Xuanling asked with a smile: "Brother Zhong Yuan returned to Beijing from Jiangnan. Why didn't he go back to his house first and instead rushed to his humble residence as soon as possible?"
Kong Yingda was tired from work, but he was in good spirits. Hearing this, he took out a large volume of drawings from his pocket, placed it on the table in front of him, looked at Fang Jun and said, "I am the master of this academy's design. The drawings tortured me so much that I couldn't sleep at night. I really couldn't stay in Jiangnan for a day, so I had to return to the capital and wanted to ask for advice in person. "
Fang Xuanling took the manuscript, flipped through it casually, and suddenly understood.
After Fang Jun drew this drawing, he showed it to him immediately and asked for his advice. How should I put it? The first word that popped out of Fang Xuanling's mouth after reading it was "whimsical", and the second word was "idiotic dreams"...
Kong Yingda spread out the drawings, looked at Fang Jun and said, "I don't know what you are thinking, but I just want to ask, are you still an academy?"
Each drawing, each courtyard, each building with different styles covers an area of almost half of Chang'an City, from the Kunming Pool to the nearby Guishan Mountain, and the terrain covers everything within a ten-mile radius from low to high. .
What scale is this?
Where is this school of architecture? It’s clearly a new city!
Old man Yu Ming also interjected: "Some time ago, I went to Jiangnan to handle some secular affairs. When I visited Brother Kong, I saw this manuscript. Even with my experience, I had to be amazed. But Erlang is a little too ambitious. ? If buildings of this scale were all monotonous buildings of horizontal and vertical bricks and cement like those in the east and west cities, I believe it could be built. ”
As he spoke, he reached out and pulled out a piece of drawings from the volume. He pointed his rough fingers on a bridge across the water, with an expression of disbelief on his face: "But all the buildings in your drawings have their own unique characteristics." Features, especially this bridge... I don’t understand, a bridge with a span of more than thirty feet, The bridge body is entirely made of steel, and the iron cables are cable-stayed... How can it not collapse? Even if it does not collapse, the amount of iron required for this bridge alone is astronomical, and it must be made of fine steel. How many years does it take to refine steel? ? How much money does it cost to build this bridge? ”
Kong Yingda took pictures of these drawings, his old eyes full of longing and regret, and sighed: "Erlang's talent is indeed unparalleled in ancient and modern times. If such a building combines Taixue, Lecture Hall, Miscellaneous Studies, Medicine, and even... The academy of stars can really be built, and it will be famous for generations to come.”
Then, he raised his eyes and said helplessly: "However, how much money does such a beautiful and huge academy cost? How much manpower does it cost? How much construction time does it take? All are jaw-dropping figures! The First Emperor's Great Wall Although the Xiongnu were blocked from Mobei and unable to invade the Central Plains, they also exhausted their national power and perished; Sui Dynasty Emperor Yangdi's construction of a canal to connect the north and the south was indeed a great undertaking that lasted for eternity, but it also led to the boiling of public dissatisfaction and the overthrow of the country. Don't say that future generations will comment on such foolish things. Of course, this college is not as direct as the Great Wall Canal. It will shake the foundation of the country, but it will also inevitably lead to the emptiness of national power. Zhengshitang will not agree, and His Majesty will not agree! ”
Such a huge project requires countless manpower and material resources. Even if it fills the entire national treasury, it will not be enough. If you are not careful, it will bring disaster to the country. Who dares to support it?
Pours of cold water were poured down the bucket, Kong Yingda looked at Fang Jun with helpless eyes, but his big hands were always dancing on the artwork...
It is true that both the Great Wall and the Grand Canal can be regarded as strategies to overthrow the country, and two super dynasties that were once tyrannical were destroyed as a result. But who can deny the majesty of the Great Wall, and who can deny the vastness of the blue waves of the Grand Canal? , who can deny the great achievements of the ages that speak directly from the heart?
If I really live to see this college completed, even if I teach in the college for a day, even if I die, I will die forever and have no regrets in my life.
Fang Jun sat upright, listening to Kong Yingda and Yu Ming telling the reasons why the college could not be built one by one, but he could feel that in fact, the two of them had been hoping that Fang Jun could tell them something to refute them together. Reasons to make this castle in the air truly come true.
Otherwise, why would Kong Yingda, who had returned to his hometown as an official and had no interest in political affairs, return to the capital after a long journey? Why is Yu Ming, who travels around the world in pursuit of the way of heaven, so obsessed with mundane things?
There is a castle in everyone's heart, where dreams and glory are placed, as well as compromises and conquests.
Fang Jun smiled slightly and said: "It took me two nights to draw these drawings, but the expected completion time was as long as twenty years, or even longer..."
Kong Yingda, old man Yu Ming, and even Fang Xuanling, who had seen the drawings, were all dumbfounded.
What a grand idea... just two nights of painting?
Fang Jun leisurely continued: "And what you don't know is that this college is actually not as important as you think. Even if it is completely destroyed after just one day of construction, I won't feel so distressed. What I care about is just its construction." The whole process, as well as the problems encountered in the process and the ways to solve the problems..." (End of this chapter)
