Chapter 1937 I’m determined to follow you
Fang Jun stumbled and almost fell on the steps in front of his house.
Mother!
Is this idiot determined?
Early the next morning, Fang Jun had just woken up. Before he could wash up, a servant came to report that the Prince Consort, the Duke of Wu'an, and the Right Guard General Xue Wanche had come to visit.
Fang Jun: "..."
I rushed to the front hall and saw Xue Wanche, wearing an official robe and wearing a golden sword, sitting on a chair, chatting and laughing with Fang Xuanling.
"...When Dou Jiande attacked Youzhou, I was under the command of Luo Yi, King of Yan. At that time, Dou Jiande's hundreds of thousands of troops were pressing down on the territory. Our army was outnumbered. If we attacked rashly, we would definitely be defeated in every battle. We should use tactics to win. I ordered the weak soldiers to be weak. The horse blocks the water and carries the city behind. We formed a formation to lure them, and to see how strong the thieves were, they would cross the river to engage in battle. Therefore, I and my brother asked the King of Yan to lay down a hundred men on the side of the city, and wait until they were halfway across to attack them. They killed tens of thousands of thieves and blocked the river with their corpses. , the river water is dyed red..."
Xue Wanche was bragging about how he had defeated Dou Jiande's great achievements under the command of King Luo Yi of Yan. Fang Xuanling smiled and stroked his beard without saying a word, seeming to be listening with interest. I just caught a glimpse of Fang Jun coming in a hurry, and I raised my eyebrows immediately. What does it mean: This good guy is looking for you so early in the morning. What's going on?
Fang Jun touched his forehead with his hand and waved it gently: How did I know?
He took two steps forward and saluted: "It turns out that the general is here to visit my humble home. My beloved is not far away to greet me. Please forgive me for my sin."
Xue Wanche looked back at him, waved his hands carelessly, and said, "What's so forgivable about this? Erlang, you're busy. I had a great chat with my roommate, and I'll see you later."
Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "Mr. Wu'an must be looking for something to do with Erlang? Then you can chat for a while. I have nothing to do all day long. If I have the opportunity, I will sit down and drink with Duke Wu'an and have a good chat."
< br>
Even though he was a deep-seated man, he still felt stiff-faced and uncomfortable being pestered by a bastard named Xue Wanche to brag about old things. When he saw his son coming, how could he not get away quickly?
Xue Wanche stood up quickly and said: "Today I have something to do with Erlang, so I will come to visit the Prime Minister another day."
Fang Xuanling smiled and nodded, and Shi Shiran left.
As soon as he left, Xue Wanche seemed to be paralyzed. He fell back on the chair and breathed a sigh of relief. He said: "Your Majesty is one of the few people I admire. If he hadn't suppressed Changsun Wuji so hard these years, That sinister man, I don’t know how much waves that guy will stir up... No, even if it makes him Zun has become an official, but as long as he has a breath, no one in the court dares to ignore it. Even if Changsun Wuji has great ability, he has to hold it in! His fault must be before his death, otherwise, he is responsible for this conspiracy! That person has been in trouble all his life and can only live in the shadow of your father!”
Fang Jun stared at him with an unhappy look on his face.
This is a compliment, and it does have some insight. In fact, when Fang Xuanling was alive, the government was stable and the officials were dormant. He seemed to be a good old man, but in fact, who wouldn't be afraid of the emperor's humerus? After Fang Xuanling's death, all the demons and monsters came out. Today they are easy to save, and tomorrow they plot rebellion. Until they tormented His Majesty Li Er to death, most of the famous officials of the Zhenguan Dynasty had been lost.
Otherwise, why would Wu Zhou usurp the throne?
Without Wu Zhou usurping the throne, there would not have been the massacre of the Li Tang clan and the famous ministers of Zhenguan, there would have been no change in the Tang Dynasty's foreign policy from offensive to defensive, there would have been no rise of the border governors, there would have been no " "An-Shi Rebellion", there will be no change from the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty to decline, and eventually the empire will collapse and China will be destabilized...
To a certain extent, it was Changsun Wuji's dominance that broke the balance between aristocratic families and poor scholars during the Zhenguan period, which led to the strong rise of the Wu Mei Group and finally seized Zuo of the Tang Dynasty. Although Wu Zetian was a strong figure with many outstanding political actions, and even created the foundation of the "Kaiyuan Prosperous Age", she also laid the foundation for the political situation of weak military power and weak branches.
If Fang Xuanling could survive a few more years and Changsun Wuji died first, perhaps the history of the Tang Dynasty would be rewritten.
However, why does Xue Wanche's tone of "Your father can do whatever he wants with just one breath" sound so uncomfortable?
"Okay, okay, my father is not here, who should I give those flattery words to?"
Fang Jun interrupted him impatiently. He was very annoyed with this person, but he couldn't just open his mouth and chase him away, right?
"Have you had breakfast?"
Xue Wanche wiped his face and said with a smile: "Why don't you get up and come to the house? I overdid it last night and talked a lot of nonsense, but the one about fooling around with you, Erlang, is the real deal."
Fang Jun sighed: "Okay, let's have breakfast first."
After saying that, he asked Xue Wanche to come to the side hall and asked the maid to bring breakfast.
Fang Jun always eats fine food and eats delicious food, but most of his breakfasts are light. He didn't know that Xue Wanche was coming to visit today, so he didn't make any preparations in advance. They were all ordinary meals in the past, and the cook cooked them in different ways. Comes out, delicious and easy to digest.
The pretty maid brought the meal, a plate of green celery, lettuce successfully cultivated on farms in the Western Regions, two plates of fried eggs, and several other side dishes. The staple food was a basket of snow-white steamed buns (called in this era Steamed cake), smooth tofu curd.
Xue Wanche was not polite. He reached out and picked up a steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth. He picked up a chopstick of crispy vinegar and celery and praised: "It tastes good."
He is a very popular and rough man, how can he look like a descendant of an aristocratic family or a relative of the emperor?
I really don’t regard myself as an outsider...
After a bowl of tofu went into his stomach, Xue Wanche touched his mouth, put the porcelain bowl on the table, and said to the maid: "Add another bowl!"
The maid hurriedly went to serve it again, but was stopped by Xue Wanche and asked: "Is there any icing sugar?"
The maid was stunned and said: "Of course there is."
Xue Wanche said: "Bring some. I have always heard that tofu curd and sugar are added to it. This is a new way of eating in Fujian and Guangdong. It tastes good. Give it a try today."
"Here!"
The maid quickly got up and wanted to go back to the kitchen to get the icing.
Fang Jun was taken aback and shouted: "Wait a minute!"
After the maid stopped drinking, she frowned and stared at Xue Wanche, saying: "A good tofu puff, add a little braised sauce and it will be the most delicious thing. Why add sugar?"
Sweeties are all heretics!
It’s just that this heresy is developing too fast. Two days ago, they stopped Jiang Guhu from eating sweet tofu nao. I thought it was just one or two people who did it by chance, but unexpectedly it has become popular?
It is unbearable!
Xue Wanche was stunned: "Sweet and salty, what does it matter?"
Fang Jun said flatly: "It's okay if I can't see you. If you see someone eating sweet tofu, I'll beat him out with a stick!"
Xue Wanche was completely incomprehensible and said angrily: "You are a stick! You are in charge of heaven and earth, but you still care whether the tofu is sweet or salty?"
"My family only has salty food. Do you want to eat it? If you like it, eat it. If you don't like it, you can leave without giving it away!"
"My...mother!"
Xue Wanche was furious, but had no choice but to add a bowl of tofu puffs and pour salty braised sauce on it.
Fang Jun suddenly felt refreshed...
*****
After breakfast, Fang Jun put on a suit of armor and left the house.
Xue Wanche followed closely...
Walking to the gate, Fang Jun said helplessly: "I am going to inspect Youtun Guard. The general is busy with military affairs. Is there nothing to do?"
Xue Wanche said carelessly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Although I am not very smart in studying, I still understand that a man can't follow his words. I said I'll hang out with you, and I'll hang out with you. I'll go wherever you go!"
Fang Jun: "..."
Are you going to drive me away or not? !
Come on, if you don't want to leave, then you can't leave. There's nothing you can do about it with a fool.
Fang Jun had no choice but to jump on his horse, lead a group of soldiers out of the house, and gallop down the long street. Xue Wanche was also mixed in, constantly pushing the horse's speed, because he was worried about being counterattacked by the emperor. In recent years, Xue Wanche has been living with his tail between his legs. He has not experienced the pleasure of riding a horse in the long street for a long time. He is very happy at this moment. He feels that it is really a shame to hang out with Fang Jun. What a great idea.
The two men in this house are very powerful, and the powerful Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War is much more effective than this empty-headed general. In addition, he has strong backing and a good reputation, and everyone in Jingzhao Mansion is his old subordinate, even if he is facing someone on the street. When they encountered this, the government officials and patrolmen turned their heads one after another, turning a blind eye to such arrogant behavior that obviously violated the law...
Go east along Tianjie, go all the way north on the long street on the west side of Chongrenfang, and exit the city from Xing'an Gate in the northeast corner of the imperial city, which is the West Inner Garden. After a while of galloping, you arrive at the Xuanwu Gate, the north gate of the palace city. Youtunwei station.
As soon as they arrived outside the camp gate, they saw a lot of noise at the camp gate. Many soldiers gathered around and argued endlessly. Some people even pushed and pushed, making it extremely chaotic.
Fang Jun's face suddenly darkened. (End of chapter)
