Chapter 1704: Li Chou
The poem "Moonlight in front of the Bed" has almost become the first of "erotic poems". Everyone in Chang'an Shilin knows and understands it. Not only does no one think it is vulgar and dirty, but everyone praises Fang Erlang for his gushing talent and elegant taste.
Fang Jun was just too playful at the time, but who would have expected that such a masterpiece that would be famous throughout the ages would go astray and ruin its reputation. He could only sigh and regret it endlessly - Brother Li Bai, I'm sorry...
< br>
Fang Jun looked at Princess Changle's unparalleled beauty and said with a smile: "What do you think, Your Highness?"
Realizing the teasing look in Fang Jun's eyes, Princess Changle said almost subconsciously: "No!"
Then he wanted to get up and leave, but his hand was held by Princess Jinyang, who said happily: "Why not? Brother-in-law, please do it quickly, Si Zi wants to hear it!"
Princess Changle said angrily: "What good poems can this person write? He is just for entertainment."
Fang Jun said with a smile: "Your Highness, this is an unjust accusation. No one dares to entertain you when I am having fun with you. For Your Highness, I have always been more affectionate than polite. I am extremely well-behaved." br>
"Behave yourself!" Princess Changle wanted to scream and ask this shameless guy, was it the rules for you to tamper with the spring pool in your farm? Does it stop at etiquette?
But she really had no shame to ask this in front of Princess Jinyang. Her pretty face turned red, and she wanted to break away from Princess Jinyang and leave, but found that her hand was tightly grasped by her sister, so she could only snort and said angrily: "What do you want to do?" Just do it, why do you talk so much?”
Princess Jinyang stared at Fang Jun with two beautiful eyes, full of interest for a moment.
Fang Jun pretended, raised his head and glanced at the bright moon, feeling the cool breeze, and chanted in a manly voice: "The moon is silent when we leave, but the moon has light and people are affectionate. After farewell, I miss you like the moon, and the water in the clouds reaches the city."
The little princess was not very old and did not have a deep understanding of the world, but her literary accomplishments were not low. She narrated it in a low voice. She suddenly smiled, clapped her hands and praised: "Good poems, lovesickness is lingering and tender, but I don't know whether my brother-in-law is here." Who do you miss? ”
Fang Jun looked at this smart little princess, Zhong Lingyuxiu, and said with a smile: "We are far apart, but our hearts are connected. Sometimes our thoughts can communicate with each other. I don't need to say who I am thinking of. After listening to this poem, that person will naturally feel the same." Feelings.”
Princess Changle on one side pursed her lips and looked through the window at the water surface filled with the clear light of the silver moon. Without looking at Fang Jun, she asked softly: "You...are going on a long trip?"
< br>
The moon is like the moon away from people. Every night, the moon is reflected from the clouds into the water, and then climbs from the water to the nine-story city on Kunlun Mountain. Year after year, it lasts for a long time, just like lovesickness is like this every day and every night, the bright moon is bright and silent. , I miss you and am speechless, but my love is like moonlight, in the clouds, on the water, in the city, in the sky and on the earth, everywhere...
It's clear that the person is sitting in front of you, why do you miss her so much?
It must be that parting is imminent, and I feel something in my heart...
Fang Jun smiled on his face, stared at Princess Changle with his eyes, and said softly: "So, Your Highness is the confidant of Wei Chen... In a few days, Wei Chen will go south to command the Royal Navy and the Goguryeo Navy. Clear the obstacles on the sea route and open up food routes for the upcoming Eastern Expedition. At the same time, we must be wary of the Japanese taking advantage of the situation to cause chaos. We may not be able to return to Chang'an for some time.”
Princess Jinyang said "Ah", looked at Fang Jun with her eyes, and said worriedly: "I am going to fight... so is my father. There are so many generals in the court who are good at fighting, why do you have to send your brother-in-law to the battlefield?"< br>
Seeing her reluctance to leave, Fang Jun couldn't bear it. He pretended to be arrogant and said: "You can't say that. It is true that there are so many fierce generals in the court, but when it comes to water wars, looking at the Tang Dynasty, who can Can you compare with Wei Chen? Your Majesty knows people well and does his duty well.”
The little princess was full of admiration: "Brother-in-law is the most powerful!"
The little girl was born to admire the strong and worship heroes. In her mind, Fang Junyun was talented in both civil and military affairs, and he loved and doted on her. He was the greatest hero in the world besides his father, and he was the elder brother of the prince. Brother Qingque is also slightly inferior...
Princess Changle pursed her lips, her expression was calm, she hesitated for a long time, and then she said clearly: "We are traveling thousands of miles to the sea, and the storms are dangerous, so we need to be careful. Military aircraft cannot be ignored, but you must always take care of yourself. You are the commander-in-chief, and you are in charge. Just stay in the rear, don’t take the lead like you did in Niuzhuji, don’t act like a hero, and end up losing your life..."
His tone was light, but his concern was palpable.
Fang Jun comforted himself and said with a smile: "Your Highness, are you afraid that the minister will die on the battlefield and no one will write these romantic and touching poems for you?"
"Bah, bah, bah!"
Princess Jinyang said angrily: "The expedition is about to begin, how can you say such unlucky words?"
Princess Changle gave Fang Jun a faint glance, her red lips slightly parted, and said angrily: "A crow's mouth..."
The bright moon is in the sky and the pond water is sparkling.
The autumn wind blows gently, leaving me with sorrow.
She didn’t know when her childhood sweetheart, Changsun Chong, who shared the same bed with her, had gradually faded away in her heart. Perhaps it was because the blood and family ties between the two were more important than the love between men and women. After they were separated, the feeling of longing for her became increasingly dim, and even aroused. When I thought about it carefully, Chang Sun Chong's handsome face was already a little blurry.
Instead, there was another face that smiled as brightly as the rising sun...

"My husband is going to Jiangnan?"
The next morning, when Fang Jun returned to the mansion to change his official robe, Princess Gaoyang asked with her eyebrows furrowed.
Fang Jun turned around and saw two children playing on the Kang. He put his arms around Princess Gaoyang's sharp shoulders, kissed her gently on the forehead, nodded and said: "The Eastern Expedition is imminent, I'm afraid the sea route will become a means of transporting grain." The main way to transport supplies must first defeat the Goguryeo navy, otherwise if something happens, the consequences will be disastrous.”
Although Princess Gaoyang has no interest in political affairs, she was born in the royal family and has a little knowledge of military affairs. She said in confusion: "My father must be the commander of the army. Now that the army has been gathered in Youying and the two states, it will definitely be The land route is the main route, hundreds of thousands of troops are unstoppable, and the back road is clear, so why transport grain by water? ”
Although waterways are convenient, the army cannot always advance along the coast. Once it penetrates deep into Liaodong, the army will divide its troops to attack cities and evacuation villages. At that time, the transportation of food and supplies will still rely on land supplies, and waterways will be inconvenient.
Fang Jun pondered for a moment, sighed, and said: "Don't spread the word between us... At present, the DPRK is too optimistic about the Eastern Expedition, and even His Majesty is the same, and does not take Goguryeo into consideration at all. The so-called arrogant soldiers must Defeat, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and unexpected disasters may occur.”
The Tang Dynasty was very strong, that's for sure. Goguryeo was located in a corner of Liaodong, with many mountainous areas and people's livelihood was difficult. In terms of national strength, it was not on the same level as the Tang Dynasty.
However, the Sui Dynasty also crushed Goguryeo in terms of national power. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty marched a million-strong army to the east. Didn't he end up returning with his armor abandoned and defeated?
War in the era of cold weapons will always have many surprises, otherwise there would not be so many classic examples of the weak defeating the strong in history.
Timing, location, harmony, and even a little bit of luck may all influence the outcome of a war...
What's more, in Fang Jun's memory, this Eastern Expedition ended in failure. Not only did it destroy most of the national power of the Tang Dynasty since Zhenguan, there are even rumors in unofficial history that His Majesty Li Er was even shot by a cold arrow in front of the battle and suffered an arrow sore. He never recovered and eventually died young.
Although this Eastern Expedition captured most of the cities in Liaodong, it was not fully accomplished and had to return to the capital as the severe winter approached. It also led to a great loss of morale and a high level of war weariness among the soldiers. Afterwards, His Majesty Li Er sent troops to attack Goguryeo twice, but both ended in haste.
Liaodong, which has been repeatedly defeated, has become a sad place that prevents His Majesty Li Er from further advancing his historical status...
Feeling his wife's reluctance to say goodbye, Fang Jun tightened his hold on her shoulders and said with a smile: "Winter will definitely come back during this expedition. Although there will be no ice on the sea, the wind and waves in the cold winter will be fierce. Even the latest warships dare not cross the sea easily. You stay at home, and when the snow falls in Guanzhong, your husband will definitely return in triumph."
Princess Gao Yang gently snuggled into Fang Jun's arms, sighed softly, and said sadly: "Really, you have become a minister, why do you still have to fight all over the world?"
When men go to war, women have the most difficult time at home. They must always pay attention to the court's reports to see if any letters of mourning have come back... In this era, even a commander in charge of thousands of troops cannot say that he can succeed every time he goes on an expedition. All must come back with all tails.
A mouthful of dirty water, a knife wound, a cold... it could all kill someone.
The poor bones by the Wuding River are like those in a boudoir dream... (End of Chapter)
