Chapter 2203 As close as family
Whether it is Chu Suiliang or Xu Jingzong, they are all worked hard in the officialdom. Do you think it is as simple as having a good family background?
Turning around and sitting on the brocade couch, he took a sip from the tea cup offered by the palace maid. His Majesty Li Er looked at Fang Jun and asked, "I just came out of Liangyi Palace and came to Concubine Yang. Could it be that it was just for Concubine Yang?" Come and chat with Concubine Yang? If that’s the case, you’re done talking, so get out of here.”
Concubine Yang was immediately dissatisfied and said angrily: "Why are you talking like that? I have sent people to prepare lunch. I have to eat before leaving."
His Majesty Li Er did not comment, glanced at Fang Jun, and said: "If you have anything to ask Concubine Yang, I will agree to it for her. If nothing happens, then leave quickly."
Fang Jun then said: "Your Majesty, I am here for the marriage of Sister Xu."
Concubine Yang was stunned and asked: "Those two you begged me to marry you a few days ago? Xu Jingzong's daughters?"
Fang Jun said: "Exactly, yesterday Xu Huangmen came to the humble house and happened to meet the minister's friends Xin Maojiang and Wang Xuance. Xu Huangmen saw that these two people had strange bones and talents. If time passes, they must not be in the pool. Therefore, I love talents and want to betroth my daughter to the two of them, so I enter the palace and ask the empress to give me a match!"
His Majesty Li Er then remembered that Xu Jingzong ran to Fang Jun's house yesterday. Although he didn't know the details, he could conclude that some kind of agreement must have been reached between the two.
But he didn't expect that he actually lent Xu Jingzong's two daughters to Fang Jun's friends...
Ouch!
His Majesty Li Er suddenly realized, doesn't this mean that Fang Jun has secretly formed an alliance with Xu Jingzong? So during the Liangyi Hall meeting just now, Fang Jun's move to refuse Xu Jingzong's entry into the academy was obviously a hard-to-get trick!
Not only himself, but also Changsun Wuji, Xiao Yu and other old foxes were swayed into the trap of this boy and Xu Jingzong...
What's especially important is that with Fang Jun's fierce and domineering attitude in doing things and Xu Jingzong's cunningness, these two people are together, and their calculations are not intentional. Chu Suiliang's situation is very bad...
Just now, I was mocking Fang Jun for boasting. Looking at it this way, it seems that he wants to kill Chu Suiliang. It seems that it really doesn’t take much effort...
Mother!
Isn't this guy too treacherous? !
His Majesty Li Er had a look of astonishment on his face. He forgot to put down the tea cup in his hand, and said with a stern face: "I'm warning you, Chu Suihao is also a hero, and he has been with me for many years. You must not go too far, otherwise I can’t spare you!”
Concubine Yang was surprised and said: "Didn't Your Majesty just say that Erlang was just blowing things up? Don't worry, Erlang acts in the most measured way. If Chu Suiliang didn't provoke Erlang, how could Erlang care about him? And according to my concubine's opinion, then Chu Suiliang doesn't look like a good person. He acts like a villain all day long. He may offend countless people. Even if he is punished one day, it cannot be blamed on Erlang. "
His Majesty Li Er was shocked. He looked at Concubine Yang who looked dissatisfied, and then stared at Fang Jun speechless.
Your boy's ability to pour ecstasy soup is quite good. Concubine Yang has always been the most virtuous and sensible person, and now she can protect you like this "for people and not for things". If time passes, won't you give me all my harem? Instigating rebellion?
His Majesty Li Er became more and more angry and said: "Have you finished talking? Just get out of here!"
Fang Jun hurriedly said: "Here!"
Concubine Yang refused. She stepped forward and pulled Fang Jun's sleeves. She turned around and looked at His Majesty Li Er and said, "What are you doing? Finally, a junior came to see me and talk to me. When you come, I will chase you away." My concubine has a lot to say, why don't you go see a young and beautiful concubine? It seems that your majesty doesn't want to stay here. What's the matter?"
There are countless beauties in the harem, but the only one who can talk to His Majesty Li Er like this is Concubine Yang...
Concubine Yang herself was a former Sui princess, with a noble status and looking down on the world. In addition, she was also a couple in need at that time. On the night of the Xuanwu Gate Incident, Concubine Yang accompanied Empress Changsun and looked after the family members of the Manfu, and she was almost heard of. After hearing that Li Jiancheng was dead, Xue Wanche, who planned to take revenge, led his troops and killed them all.
Moreover, although His Majesty Li Er likes fishing, he still has a long-term love for his "old wife". Even Concubine Wei has never scolded a fool like Concubine Wei who keeps getting into trouble, let alone Concubine Yang, who has a gentle and virtuous temperament and does not like to fight?
Therefore, regarding Concubine Yang's words that clearly violated the distinction between monarch and minister, His Majesty Li Er did not seem to realize that there was anything wrong at all. He just said helplessly: "Just treat him as a good boy and go outside to ask. Who wouldn’t be afraid to avoid him when they meet him? ”
Concubine Yang didn't care about this and said matter-of-factly: "A man has to be tough outside, otherwise he will suffer and be bullied like a coward. What's the point of that? Besides, I don't care how arrogant and domineering he is outside." I am domineering, I only know that my child cares about me, thinks about me, and is obedient and obedient in front of me, that is a good child!”
Fang Jun smiled naively: "Thank you for your protection."
His Majesty Li Er looked at the eloquent Concubine Yang and was extremely speechless.
After thinking about it carefully, I found that it actually makes sense...
He knew that Concubine Yang had always regarded Princess Gaoyang as her own son, and she also regarded Fang Jun as her son-in-law, who was much closer to her than other consorts. And Fang Jun is really good at getting things done. During the Fourth and Fifth Festival, he sends weird gifts to the palace for free. Princess Jinyang received the most gifts, followed by Concubine Yang. On the contrary, it was Princess Jinyang who received the most gifts. There are not many things for this emperor...
A tiger that grins outside turns into a cat that shakes its head and tail when it comes here. It can act coquettishly, be cute, considerate, and make people smile. Who can not like it?
His Majesty Li Er pointed at Fang Jun and said: "If you have even the slightest evil intention, you will be a sycophant who will bring trouble to Chao Gang!"
Fang Jun nodded and bowed: "The Holy King is on the throne, and the court is full of justice. There may be a few petty people who seek personal gain and ignore the overall situation, but there is no chance for the traitors to rise. Your Majesty, you are overly concerned."
After wearing the boat for thousands of years, the flattery will not wear it.
His Majesty Li Er was very happy with his achievements. He dreamed that the people in the history would praise his Zhenguan Dynasty as a "peaceful world" and a "glorious and prosperous era". The ministers in the court were diligent in government affairs and loyal and courageous. Although he knew that this idea was a bit extreme. It’s hard to achieve, but now after listening to Fang Jun’s words, I’m still in a good mood.
Then he smiled and said to Concubine Yang: "Look, who can surpass this flattery in the court? You don't like to hear that he is a sycophant!"
Concubine Yang said: "Others say this is slanderous talk, but Erlang means it sincerely. Anyway, I feel that the world is at peace now, the country is powerful and the people live and work in peace and contentment. This is the ancient prosperous age recorded in the history books." , nothing more than that.”
"Wow haha!"
His Majesty Li Er was delighted. Although he knew that Fang Jun's words were mostly flattery and Yang Fei's words were mostly teasing, he just sounded happy!
At this moment, Fang Jun was also very pleased with his eyes and said with a smile: "Have the Ministry of Rites and the Bureau of Taishi decided on an auspicious day for the wedding? I will also give you a few congratulatory gifts by then to show your dignity, so as not to be confused by those newlyweds. Luo dignitaries looked down upon him.”
Only then did Fang Jun remember that there was a daughter-in-law waiting for him to marry...
When mentioning the Silla princess, Fang Jun was full of complaints and complained: "Your Majesty is the king of ten thousand chariots and the supreme king of the world. He holds the sun and moon in his mouth, guides the country, and scolds Fang Qiu. Why pay attention to such trivial things?" Something?”
His Majesty Li Er said: "You still look down upon that Princess of Silla?"
Fang Jun sighed and said: "Your Majesty, this is not a matter of preference. Last time you gave Xiao's daughter to Wei Chen as a concubine, His Highness Gaoyang was already dissatisfied. Now you have added a Silla princess. ... Although Wei Chen has not caught fire in the backyard, it is not far behind. ”
The matter is naturally not that serious. Women are equal to property these days. It is a great honor for the emperor to reward several beauties to his ministers. What's more, with the status of Princess Gaoyang, is there any need to be afraid of such a woman?
Fang Jun is just complaining. When something bad happens, you throw it at me. When something good happens, go find someone else around me. By the way, now we no longer have the official position of left minister of the Ministry of War, and the academy has not yet been established, so the position of "siye" Naturally, he didn't take office. Although he had the title of General Youtunwei, which general would stay in the military camp all day long during the war?
After all, we are almost the same as a white man.
At least we have to sort out the rank of our "Shangzhu Kingdom". Even if it is a low-level job and a high-level match, we will accept it... (End of this chapter)
