Chapter 1398 Discussion
The study room was lit with candles, brilliant and bright.
Fang Xuanling's expression was slightly solemn, and her mother, Lu, who rarely appeared in her father's study, was actually there, sitting on the chair with a dark and gloomy face, faintly angry.
Fang Jun was surprised and sat on the chair in front of the desk. When the maid served the tea and left, he held the tea cup in one hand and asked, "But what happened?"
Fang Xuanling angrily scolded: "You didn't cause this mess yourself! I have been upright and aboveboard all my life, how could I have given birth to such a despicable and absurd playboy like you? You have really disgraced me. What a bastard!”
Fang Jun was baffled as he watched his father spit foam and stars flying around.
He was at a loss. This was a slap in the face and a curse. Where did it come from?
He quickly put the tea cup in his hand on the table and asked cautiously: "Please tell me, father, what did your son do wrong?"
Fang Xuanling snorted angrily and glared at Fang Jun angrily, but turned away and ignored him.
Fang Jun Zhang Er Jingang, confused...
After thinking about it carefully, my performance today was pretty good. I had been standing at the door like a welcome guest all day and my waist and knees were so tired that it was hard work without any credit, right? Besides, although people like Changsun Wuji and Gao Shilian, who had always been at odds with him, came to visit today, he was not disrespectful at all.
After much deliberation, Fang Jun couldn't figure out what he had done wrong to make his father so angry, so he could only look at his mother, Lu, as if asking for help.
Mrs. Lu was also a little displeased at first, so she stayed silent when Fang Xuanling scolded Fang Jun. She felt that the boy was a little proud and it would be a good idea to give him a lesson.
But when I saw the pitiful look in my son's eyes, I suddenly felt soft. I frowned and glared at Fang Xuanling, saying displeasedly: "I can just teach the child a few words, why should I be so harsh? Besides, I really can't blame our son for this matter. It’s those villains with ulterior motives who are trying to make trouble for good people. If you have the ability, go and fight with those guys. What can you do with your wife and children at home?”
Fang Xuanling was furious: "Well, you are a two-faced woman. Didn't you just say that you wanted to teach this kid a lesson so that he can act rigorously and establish a gentleman's behavior in the future? He will not always be caught by others and fall into passivity. ”
Mrs. Lu felt a little guilty. This was indeed what the couple said just now...
But the problem is that Mrs. Lu is used to being strong. At this moment, being scolded by Fang Xuanling in front of her son, she felt a little embarrassed. She scratched her neck in anger and retorted: "It's a mistake for a son not to teach his father. Even the son understands the truth. You... The prime minister of a country doesn’t understand?”
Fang Xuanling almost fainted!
You actually use the words in your son's "Three Character Classic" to teach me, the prime minister, a lesson?
His hands trembled with anger, and he pointed at Mr. Lu and cursed: "Only women and villains are difficult to raise!"
Mrs. Lu snorted and said leisurely: "The third principle of a gentleman is that I am incompetent. A benevolent person does not worry, a knowledgeable person does not confuse, and a brave person does not fear. You Fang Xuanling has always claimed to be a gentleman, but you don't even know the first rule of the gentleman's way. If you can’t do it, even though you are a woman, you will despise her.”
This sentence comes from "The Analects of Confucius: Xianwen". Lu said that Fang Xuanling did not even comply with the first rule of a gentleman, which is the sentence "The benevolent do not worry."
What does "the benevolent do not worry"?
That is to say, a person has a big heart of benevolence and righteousness. His heart is extremely kind and tolerant, so he can ignore many details and not care about small gains and losses. Only such a person can truly be quiet and calm in his heart, and can be called a gentleman.
It is obviously a mockery of Fang Xuanling. Although she calls herself a gentleman, why can't she be calm, kind, and tolerant in her heart?
Fan Yang Lu's family was orthodox in the Han Dynasty and Confucian Zhengshuo. Even though she was a female generation, Lu's talents and learning were not at the level of country women, but definitely above the level of ordinary scholars.
Seeing Fang Xuanling so angry that smoke was coming from her nose, Mrs. Lu was very proud.
Are you the only one who knows how to curse in a polite way?
It’s not for nothing that I feel sour...
The old couple were quarreling. Fang Jun was sweating profusely and said quickly: "Father, mother, calm down...what happened?"
"Ask your mother yourself!"
Fang Xuanling was very angry. As long as a woman, a knitting girl, has a gentle temperament, what is she doing reading so many books?
Fang Jun looked at Lu.
Lu made Fang Xuanling speechless. She felt proud and her depression was relieved, so she imitated what Gao Shilian's wife Xianyu said at the banquet of the princesses when Gao Shilian's wife Xianyu came to the house to congratulate her. Read it again.
Fang Jun listened quietly, his expression gradually becoming serious.
After Mrs. Lu finished talking, she asked curiously: "Son, tell the truth to mother, what is going on between you and Princess Changle?"
Fang Jun said speechlessly: "What else can happen? Nothing happened!"
Lu Shi glared at him angrily: "Flies don't bite seamless eggs! There are several royal princesses who have not yet married or divorced, such as the coquettish and enchanting Princess Fangling. Why doesn't anyone talk to you about her? , but it’s Princess Changle?”
Fang Jun was helpless and simply kept silent, thinking about Xian Yu's real intention. Was it a reckless act, or did he mean something with ulterior motives?
After a while, he looked at Fang Xuanling and asked: "In my father's opinion, is there someone behind the scenes who instigated Xianyu to do this?"
Fang Xuanling didn't even raise his eyelids and said calmly: "Your mother said, 'It's the son's fault if he doesn't teach his father'. But how can your father and I, an honest man who doesn't even dare to take a concubine, give you to the charming Fang Erlang?" What about making suggestions? It’s not just because of your father’s kindness, it’s really because you have more than enough energy.”
What I said...
Fang Jun touched his forehead with his hand, his face flushed.
Dad, after all, you are also the prime minister of a country, can you be a little more formal? Is it really okay to belittle your own son like this?
When Mrs. Lu heard this, her eyebrows stood up, she reached out and patted the table, glared at Fang Xuanling and said, "Oh, look at this sour look. Are you envious of your son hugging you and want to imitate him? Humph? Huh, don't say I look down on you. Our son is capable. Not only can he You can train the princess in your family to be obedient, and you can also make another princess agree to become your confidante. How can you, Fang Xuanling, dare to have such extravagant hopes? Don’t even think about taking a concubine into the house!”
Fang Xuanling was so angry that his beard trembled: "Have I ever had such thoughts?"
Lu did not give in: "I don't dare to measure you!"
Fang Xuanling felt that this woman was simply unreasonable: "This is not a question of whether you dare or not, but I don't bother to do it!"
Lu sneered: "Come on, what cat doesn't steal? Whether you can take a concubine is one thing, and whether you want to take a concubine is another. Even if you have to cover up your inner thoughts, you are also a hypocrite. ! ”
Fang Xuanling is about to explode!
I can’t even think about it, I can’t even think about it, this bitch is simply my nemesis...
Fang Jun, one of two older men, hurriedly dissuaded his mother: "Mom, please calm down. As the prime minister of the dynasty, my father has never been busy with his affairs. For decades, he and his mother have been deeply and unswervingly in love with each other. I don't know how many famous families envy him." lady , The emperor’s decree. Such men are truly the only ones in the world. Mothers should love and care for them. They only envy mandarin ducks and not immortals. If they live up to their expectations, there will be a good story in history, and their son will be honored. "< br>
Although Mrs. Lu is a mature woman, her ladylike charm is still there. After hearing what Fang Jun said was so disgusting, she couldn't help but her face turned red and she spat: "You bastard, you are the only one with a sweet mouth, and you actually use your parents as a raft. You are just asking for a beating!"
When Fang Xuanling saw Lu's expression, she breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was no wonder that her son was able to seduce Lan Xinhui's charming Princess Changle, but she couldn't even get an old wife. In terms of ability comparison in this area, as a father, I was simply crushed...
Stop messing around and get down to business.
"The situation is not good." Fang Xuanling said with a frown.
Mrs. Lu deeply believed that, as the legitimate daughter of Mrs. Fan Yang, she still had some knowledge. Unlike those ignorant women who were trapped in deep houses and courtyards, they had no idea about the development of things, and could only feel at a loss when things happened. Cry and wipe away tears.
As the emperor's favorite legitimate daughter, Princess Changle's status is undoubtedly the most prominent among the princes and princesses, even the prince and the prince of Jin are behind her. Especially after he reconciled with Changsun Chong, the emperor felt a sense of guilt in his heart. He regarded Princess Changle as the apple of his eye and would never tolerate any slightest grievance.
Even someone as fierce as Mr. Lu couldn't say such words as "I don't want others to care about your feelings." If Fang Jun was not married yet, he would just return it. With Fang Xuanling's status, it is impossible to say that the emperor would simply take advantage of the limelight to take advantage of her. Princess Changle got married.
But now, as Princess Gaoyang's consort, Fang Jun had such scandals with Princess Changle, which tarnished Princess Changle's innocent reputation. How could the emperor not be furious? Once the emperor determines that Fang Jun and Princess Changle really have an affair, then Fang Jun will definitely face the emperor's surging anger!
For the emperor's most beloved daughter to suffer such injustice, Fang Jun's fate will definitely not be better...
Fang Jun sighed and said: "Those guys want to drive his son out of the capital, but his son has still handed over Jing Zhaoyin's mission. Is it necessary to kill them all? A mere minister of the Ministry of War can't control him anyway. Why should you be so aggressive and even involve Princess Changle? ”
He is really depressed.
It would be fine if he really had an affair with Princess Changle. As the saying goes, "If you die under peonies, you will be a ghost and you will be romantic." Death is naturally impossible, and even being relegated out of the capital is still worth it.
The problem is that he only touched it, not even "fulfilling his sibling lust", but he was hit by the emperor, which was even more unjust than Dou E...
Lu said angrily: "These aristocratic families have gone too far. Even Erlang has given up his position in Jing Zhaoyin and they won't give up. Is it possible that His Majesty must ask Erlang to be demoted to Qiongzhou in order to satisfy them?"< br>
Fang Xuanling looked solemn, sighed softly, and looked out the open window: "Erlang has always been close to the prince. If we don't demote him out of the capital and cut off the prince's most powerful help, how can others rise?"
< br>
At some point, a breeze began to pick up outside the window, and light rain began to fall.
The breeze carried the raindrops and carried them into the house. The air was moist and cool... (End of this chapter)
