Chapter 2055: Curse me?
The second son, Li Siwen, is physically strong, but he is childish and has no virtue. He always makes trouble and is too rebellious. He even transferred to the Youwu Guard without his consent. Now he is following Xue Wanche to Shuozhou to face Xue Yantuo.
As for the son-in-law, it is even more troublesome...
Originally, I saw that the child was handsome, well-spoken, and a child of the Du family in Jingzhao. He had a good upbringing, so he agreed to the marriage. Li Ji has outstanding achievements and is deeply trusted by the emperor. Now he is the head of the prime minister. He does not expect to rely on his daughter to marry anyone. With the help of his political resources, he is purely optimistic about Du Huaigong, even if his daughter does not agree. , was also forced to marry by herself.
But who would have thought that Du Huaigong was actually a man of gold and jade, but a loser on the inside?
He usually only eats, drinks, whores and gambles, and has no ambition to make progress in his official career. He shamelessly found a job for him in the Eastern Expedition Army, and placed him in the imperial army that protected the emperor's safety. He obviously earned money while lying down. It was a good thing to achieve great feats in war, but the boy refused to obey even to death.
The reason is actually that swords and arrows are blind on the battlefield and they are afraid of death...
For this reason, Li Ji was ridiculed by many veterans, lost all face, and became a laughing stock.
The daughter was so ashamed and angry that she moved directly back to the mansion and threatened to make peace with Du Huaigong, otherwise she would become a nun...
If you don’t become a householder, you don’t know how valuable firewood and rice are; if you don’t raise children, you don’t know how much your parents are kind to you.
He, Li Ji, spent his whole life galloping across the battlefield, conquering every attack, and rising to power in the temple, but he was helpless when it came to his children...
Thinking of this, he shook his head with a wry smile, took out a battle report from his arms, presented it to His Majesty Li Er with both hands, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this is the battle report of Northern Xinjiang that Fang Jun sent back. He crossed the Baidao and arrived at Chilechuan. Xue Yantuo's tens of thousands of cavalry have brazenly invaded the border of the Tang Dynasty and hunted down the Turks. They arrived at Yanmen Pass, intending to occupy Monan and Baidaochuan! Ashina Simo was seriously injured, but Xue Wanche led the Youwu Guards to cut off the Evil Yang Ridge in time, defeated Dadu Shi, and beheaded more than 30,000 Hulu. , the defeated enemy relied on the terrain of Eryang Ridge to break out, hoping to confess to the enemy. Crossing the Baidao Road and returning to Mobei, they were defeated by Fang Jun who had already occupied the Baidao Pass. Da Duzhi was killed on the spot, and thousands of his troops fled along the Yin Mountain. It was not a cause for concern. Fang Jun's battle report said that His Majesty was seriously ill. , you might as well rest assured and take care of yourself, the Eastern Expedition can be put on hold for the time being, Xue Yantuo brazenly Invading the borders of the Tang Dynasty and intending to massacre the allies of the Tang Dynasty must not be tolerated, otherwise it will damage the majesty of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, he has led the Youtunwei army straight out of Baidao and entered Mobei, intending to sweep across Mobei and boost the dignity of the Tang Dynasty. , punish the barbarians!”
His Majesty Li Er was stunned at first, and then became furious: "Yi Nan'an, how dare you bully me! Fang Jun and Xue Wanche killed well! Mother! Do you really think that our Tang Dynasty has no one?"
At present, Xue Yantuo's envoy is in Chang'an. He spends the whole day in Honglu Temple, asking for an audience to discuss the marriage.
Open and closed, the two countries are good neighbors and have been friendly for generations. We are willing to be a country of Qin and Jin and a country of brothers forever!
The result?
They do one thing in person and behind the other's back. Here they are discussing a marriage, but over there they break into the Tang Dynasty and massacre its allies!
In the eyes of His Majesty Li Er, a Yi man is no more loyal and reliable than an Ashina Simo!
What's more, after destroying the Eastern Turks, he single-handedly supported their restoration and used them as a barrier for the Tang Dynasty in the northern frontier. The person he was guarding against was Xue Yantuo. If the Eastern Turks were really destroyed by Xue Yantuo, he, the " How can the Khan of Heaven retain his face?
If you can't even protect your own little brother, what will the countries in the Western Regions that are attached to the Tang Dynasty think?
Who will regard Datang as the suzerain in the future and defend Datang against powerful enemies?
He was in the middle of an illness, weak and weak, and his anger was rising. He felt dizzy and short of breath for a while, but a thought suddenly flashed in his mind. He quickly waved his hands to calm down his anger, stared at Li Ji and asked in surprise: "You just said, Fang Jun, Already know that someone is seriously ill and unable to fight in person? ”
Li Ji gave a wry smile and handed over the battle report: "Your Majesty will know at a glance."
His Majesty Li Er blinked, took the battle report and read it carefully, feeling a little confused...
Today is the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, and I fell ill on the first day of the Lunar New Year. At that time, northern Xinjiang was already in chaos.
Although he had strict orders not to go to war with Xue Yantuo, Xue Yantuo brazenly invaded the border and intended to massacre the Turks. As the commander-in-chief of northern Xinjiang, Fang Jun responded decisively, which was right.
No matter what, anyone who dares to invade the Tang Dynasty must be beaten back severely!
But...
I hurriedly turned to the end and looked at the date on the battle report. It was sent out on the third day of the Lunar New Year.
If I fell ill on the first day of junior high school, could Fang Jun, who was in Baidaokou, know about it on the third day of junior high school?
Is your special mother's Fang Jun an all-knowing land fairy, or is he clairvoyant and able to tell that I'm sick from hundreds of miles away? !
"Asshole!"
His Majesty Li Er was furious and cursed angrily: "It's simply lawless! In order to send troops to Mobei, he even made up rumors and slandered me for being sick. His heart is to be punished!"
What else don’t you understand?
That guy simply didn't care about the overall situation of the Eastern Expedition, and for the sake of his own achievements, he did not hesitate to make up lies to deceive the king!
Li Chengqian, Princess Changle and Princess Jinyang looked at each other in confusion. Isn't Fang Jun's courage ridiculous?
Li Chengqian was furious, secretly complaining that Fang Jun was so bold that he dared to make up such rumors, would he risk his life? He wanted to plead with Fang Jun, but seeing his father in full anger, he didn't dare to interrupt.
Princess Jinyang was anxious, wondering why her brother-in-law was so bold.
Her arm suddenly hurt. She turned her head and saw that her elder sister was quietly giving her a wink...
The little princess understood instantly.
After thinking about it, he suddenly said: "Why did my father wrongly accuse my brother-in-law of fabricating rumors? You are indeed sick!"
When Princess Changle heard this, she frowned and gave Princess Jinyang a hard look.
Can this girl speak?
This is trouble...
Sure enough, His Majesty Li Er hesitated after hearing this, but became even more angry.
This bastard!
If you make up rumors randomly and find an excuse to send troops to Mobei, you can still be caught by him!
Then I thought about it, good things don't work but bad things don't work. My illness came out of nowhere. Could it be that I was cursed by that foul mouth?
The anger became more intense, and they lined up on the couch and cursed: "How can this be unreasonable? How can it be unreasonable! Such a person has no king and no father, and regards the great cause of the empire as nothing. The crime is unforgivable! The British Duke immediately drafted an order to recall this animal to Chang'an and ordered the three judicial departments to jointly try it. It is the crime of deceiving the emperor and ignoring the law of the country!”
If Fang Jun is captured, what will happen?
No matter how much the emperor thinks of Fang Xuanling, he will never forgive Fang Jun!
Beheading is probably not possible, but it is almost certain that you will be stripped of rank, dismissed from office, and then sent into exile for three thousand miles...
Li Chengqian was sweating profusely and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Father, please calm down! Although Fang Jun is usually a bit reckless, he is definitely not a treacherous man without a king and a father! I am afraid there is something hidden, so please be aware of it!"
< br>
His Majesty Li Er cursed: "Fart! The battle report is here. He wrote all the words himself. Is it possible that someone can force him with a knife?"
Li Ji is so helpless, can't you read this battle report carefully before getting angry?
I had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty clearly knows..."
"Shut up!"
His Majesty Li Er glared angrily: "Do you even want to plead for that stick? It's not an exaggeration to kill him a hundred times for such a bold thing. You, Li Ji, claim to be fair and rigorous, but you want me to bend the law for personal gain?"
Li Ji's face twitched and he said helplessly: "What the hell...why don't your majesty read this battle report? The fact that your majesty got sick did not come from Fang Jun's mouth..."
His Majesty Li Er hesitated again, holding his breath in his chest and almost losing his breath.
He picked up the battle report again, carefully read it from beginning to end, raised his face, shook the battle report, looked at Li Ji in astonishment, and asked: "When will I send Xiao Siye to convey the imperial edict?"
Li Ji looked at the emperor and wondered, are you sick and confused...
"Your Majesty, you did not send anyone to convey any imperial edict to Fang Jun, but this is not the key. The key is that your Majesty was ill and could not drive to conquer Goguryeo in person. This was what Xiao Siye said, and he produced an imperial edict, so Fang Jun Juncai believed it. Fang Jun had just defeated Xue Yantuo at Baidaokou and completely wiped out tens of thousands of his cavalry, which would inevitably lead to a great loss of Xue Yantuo's power. Suo, Yi Nan has no information, so the defenses in various places in Mobei will be empty in the short term. Since His Majesty cannot lead the expedition in person, the plan of the Eastern Expedition can only be shelved indefinitely, and Mobei is empty. Such a God-given opportunity cannot be missed. He will not come again, so Fang Jun decisively marched out of Baidao, intending to go straight to Yu Dujun Mountain, repeat Shi Yanran's great achievements, and destroy Xue Yantuo in one fell swoop! "
After talking a lot, Li Ji took a long breath.
I thought to myself: Mom, Fang Jun, you are a little bastard, I can only help you so much...
In fact, apart from those greedy people in the court who were driven by profit and wanted to gain military exploits and promotions during the Eastern Campaign, who of the truly knowledgeable people in the court would ever take Goguryeo seriously?
The real enemy of the Tang Dynasty was Xue Yantuo and Tubo, not even the Western Turks who fled to the Western Regions!
Fang Junbing went out of his way to attack Mobei. This is the real move to seek the country!
There is no need to really strangle Shi Yanran and destroy the Xueyantuo Khanate. It is enough to stab him in the heart and severely damage his power. With morality and justice here, coupled with the personal friendship between them, how could Li Ji not help Fang Jun complete his lie?
