Chapter 2106 Paranoid Heart
After hearing the words of the prince, Changsun Wuji shook his head slightly and said: "Your Highness, what you said is wrong. No one can take on a big responsibility right from birth and never make mistakes. Fang Jun is extremely talented. He is truly a rare talent that can only be seen in a century. He is even more qualified to do so." Only by giving them heavy responsibilities and tempering can they become the pillars of the empire. If they are left idle due to some shortcomings and are not cultivated, they will never make progress. ”
The implication is that we value Fang Jun's talents, so we recommend him to serve as the Grand Protector of the Hanhai Protectorate.
The younger the talent, the more emphasis must be placed on cultivating him, but his mistakes must be forgiven. It is not advisable to blindly exploit strengths and avoid weaknesses. Otherwise, how can we cultivate qualified successors for the empire?
Li Chengqian was so angry that his temples were pounding. He held back his anger, gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "Whether Northern Xinjiang can be appeased or not is related to the safety of the empire. The establishment of the Protectorate is the right thing to do, but the candidates for the Protectorate still have to be chosen. It should be considered carefully. Besides, Fang Jun created the 'Martial Arts Hall'. Now that the class is about to start, I should let Fang Jun come back to take charge of the overall situation. I hope my father will learn from it."
The two men were arguing with each other, while the other ministers kept silent.
It’s not that no one has a good relationship with Changsun Wuji, nor does it mean that no one supports Li Chengqian. It’s just that as important bosses in the court, these few hold great power, and the slightest move will cause a chain reaction, affecting the prince’s team. , which can be extended to the point where the battle for storage positions becomes more volatile, and no one wants to get stuck in this quagmire.
His Majesty Li Er felt a little relieved when he looked at the red-faced prince arguing with Changsun Wuji.
The prince has always given people the impression of being gentle, kind and kind, with a somewhat indecisive personality, which inevitably makes him look cowardly.
But it turns out that when his reverse scales are touched, he will fight back angrily and is unwilling to follow the crowd.
Although many times the prince's counterattack methods seem a bit naive...
After thinking for a while, His Majesty Li Er said: "If the Hanhai Protectorate is established in Mobei, the structure and personnel arrangements of the yamen must be considered in the long term, and there is no need to rush. Although Fang Jun's second son is somewhat talented, but he has the ability to cause trouble. He's not a little kid either. I'm worried about leaving him in Mobei. God knows what kind of person he could be exposed to. What kind of basket scares us! Furthermore, Xue Yantuo's tent is still there at this time, and the Tiele tribes are still obeying Xue Yantuo Khan's orders. Mobei is not yet the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and all armies need to be urged to speed up. We will quickly reach Mobei and assist the Youtun Guards in annihilating the recalcitrant Hu tribe.”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"As it should be!"
……
All the ministers had enough soy sauce, and they all paid compliments.
Changsun Wuji sighed secretly. Although he knew that the idea of getting Fang Jun to Mobei was almost impossible to realize, seeing the emperor protecting the prince's team like this, he knew that the slightest hope in his heart had been completely cut off.
If there is no major change, the matter of easy storage will be impossible from now on.
Considering the prince's attitude towards the eldest son's family and the grievances between the eldest grandson's family and Fang Jun, after the emperor's funeral and the crown prince's accession to the throne, the eldest grandson's family will face a torrent of suppression and exclusion.
Changsun Wuji became worried when he thought of that difficult situation...
*****
Jingzhao Mansion.
Jingzhao Yin and Ma Zhou looked at the dandy boys in the hall with bruised noses, swollen faces, crooked mouths and slanted eyes. His eyelids twitched and he tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart.
Gao Shilian's fourth son Gao Zhenxing, Chu Suiliang's son Chu Yanfu, the two brothers Dou Dewei and Dou Dezang of the Dou family, Dai Zhide, the son of Dai Zhou, the former minister of Dali Temple, Xue Yuanchao, the grandson of Xue Daoheng and the son of Xue Shou, the favorite minister of Emperor Gaozu , Su Liangsi, the son of Su Shichang, one of the "Eighteen Scholars" who is currently in His Majesty's residence... Oh, there is also His Royal Highness King Jiang.
A bunch of bastards, all full and stuffed?
Born in an aristocratic family, they have been in high positions at a young age, and they all have promising career prospects. How come they are just like the ruffians in the market? They do not do anything to benefit the country and the people, and they are not even evaluated for their conscientiousness No, but you only know how to fight all day long?
They are all scum...
After taking a sip of tea, the anger in his chest and abdomen subsided slightly. Ma Zhou raised his eyelids and glanced around, asking: "You gather people to make trouble and disturb public order. According to the law, you will be whipped for thirty years, imprisoned for three months, or hard labor for ten years." Day...but I keep you all in mind They are all young and have no serious consequences. If you are willing to compensate for all the losses of the "Zhuangyuan Tower" and negotiate in private, I will let you go and not pursue it. "< br>
He has never been a kind-hearted person, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is "selfless". He never rubs sand in his eyes.
But in the final analysis, this matter is just a matter of friendship between dudes. The dignified Jing Zhaoyin is involved in government affairs, so there is no need to worry about such trivial matters.
They are just a bunch of silverfish, too lazy to deal with...
However, he planned to settle the matter, but someone refused to do so.
Chu Yanfu leaned against Dou Dewei weakly and wiped the corners of his eyes that were bleeding continuously. His bruised and swollen mouth started to twitch with pain when he spoke: "No! Who did I provoke? The person who had the quarrel with them was Gao Shilang. First, It was also Koshiro who did it, why? They didn't find Gao Shilang, but they caught me and beat him? I'm so easy to bully! This matter must be explained. If Ma Fuyin can't deal with it impartially, but intends to protect these people with Xini, then we will fight the lawsuit. Dali Temple!”
Dai Zhide shouted from the side: "Dali Temple is Dali Temple! It was you who beat people first. We were purely self-defense, and we are not afraid even if we go to Dali Temple!"
How could he be afraid of going to Dali Temple?
His father, Dai Zhou, was the former minister of Dali Temple. Dai Zhou single-handedly brought out and supported Sun Fuga, the current minister of Dali Temple, to the position of minister. He can be said to be Sun Fuga’s benefactor. Otherwise, why would Dai Zhide be so young? Can he hold an official position in Dali Temple?
Arriving at Dali Temple is like returning to Dai Zhide’s home...
Gao Zhenxing's eyes twitched at the side, wishing he could slap Chu Yanfu's foul mouth and make him speechless.
What does it mean that I was the one who caused the quarrel?
What does it mean that I was the one who made the first move?
Who are you really with? Isn't this betraying me?
"Shut up!"
Ma Zhou shouted loudly and scolded with angry eyes: "This is the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, an important place for the government. I am Jingzhao Yin, the official of the imperial court! Who are you talking to when you open your mouth and shut up? You are a spoiled child and extremely naughty. Since your Chu family can't live well." Discipline you, I will take care of it for you!”
"Here!"
"Chu Yanfu uttered arrogant words, had no official government, was arrogant and domineering, Gao Zhenxing was the first to provoke and beat others, and the two men were whipped for thirty years. The Dou brothers were the accomplices, Su Liangsi, Dai Zhide, Xue Yuanchao, Jiang Wang Li Yun, the impact of the public brawl was so bad that each person was whipped twenty times, and the "Champion House" was asked to issue an account of the losses, which were shared equally by these people, and then they were all sent to jail and detained for three months! "
"Here!"
The government servants who were standing in the hall rushed up and pushed several people to the ground like wolves and tigers. They ignored the struggle and tied them all tightly with ropes.
Jiang Wang Li Yun was startled and said hurriedly: "What the hell... Ma Fuyin, can I just forget it?"
Ma Zhou shouted: "The prince breaks the law and is guilty of the same crime as the common people!"
Li Yun cried sadly and refused to be whipped. He struggled and said: "But I will go to the palace later to pay respects to my father. I will not be able to walk with a whip, and I will not be able to fulfill my filial piety as a son of man..."
Ma Zhou said coldly: "At this time, Your Highness has thought of the filial piety of the Son of Man? He was fighting in public like gangsters in broad daylight. How could he forget his identity as a prince? How could he forget how angry and sad His Majesty would be if he found out about it? ? Don't worry, I will go to the palace in person later to report this to Your Majesty. Your Majesty will definitely not blame you for not going to say hello. Besides, you will not have the chance to enter the palace after being detained for three months... Execution!”
"Here!"
The government officials excitedly tied up Li Yun, who was struggling, and carried him out. After all, being able to whip a prince with your own hands is not an opportunity that comes easily...
"Wait!"
At this moment, a person walked quickly from the door of the lobby and saluted Ma Zhou in the hall: "I am a low-ranking official and a high-ranking official. I hope Ma Fuyin will be more open-minded."
Gao Fuxing, who was wearing a long robe and looking very handsome, stood in the hall. After saluting, he straightened up and looked at Ma Zhou.
Ma Zhou frowned slightly and said patiently: "Gao Dalang, you are also an official of the imperial court. You should know that the law does not tolerate mercy. How can you ask me to do favoritism just because of your words? Besides, I didn't give them any advice just now." Opportunities, but these fools You said something rude and yelled in court, but you didn't take this official seriously at all. Please come back, Gao Dalang, and prepare some bedding and clothes for Gao Zhenxing. I allow you to visit in prison, which is considered accommodating. "
Gao Jingcheng's face turned ugly and he said in a deep voice: "Ma Fuyin, we are all officials in the same dynasty. These few people made mistakes when they were young, but it was not a serious crime that caused outrage and anger. It was just a fight and it did not cause any harm." Why are you so harsh and unmerciful about casualties? ”
In his opinion, if dudes occasionally quarrel or fight, is that considered a problem?
In the past, these dandies in the capital often had dozens or hundreds of people fighting in melees, causing a sensation in the capital, but no one was seen holding on to them. Even if the emperor heard about it, most of them would just laugh it off.
This Ma Zhou is obviously taking this opportunity to lose face of the Gao family... (End of Chapter)
