Chapter 2500: Lobbying with all your strength

How dare Fang Jun accept such a great gift from Gao Shilian?

He quickly stepped aside, bent down to return the gift, and said, "How can I do it, old Duke? This junior generation will never be able to bear such a gift!"

Gao Shilian also knew his status and expressed his attitude, so he didn't think too much about himself. He straightened up and took two steps forward, took Fang Jun's hand affectionately, and said with tears: "How can you not bear it? No matter how big it is, I can bear the gift! If Erlang hadn't argued hard and kept that bastard Chang Sun Guang in the Ministry of War for interrogation, how would my family's blood feud have been avenged? Once they were transferred back to Weiwei Temple, those bastards would have favored their own interests and let it go."


"The juniors don't dare to accept it. This is His Majesty's will. The juniors definitely don't dare to take credit."

"Although I am old, I am not an old fool. How can I be unclear about right and wrong and unclear grievances? Come on, come on, please take a seat."

"Here."

Gao Shilian invited Fang Jun to sit down, asked his servants to serve tea, and then drove everyone out.

There were only two of them left in the hall.

Gao Shilian made a gesture and invited Fang Jun to drink tea. He sighed softly, unable to hide his sadness: "It stands to reason that a man who died for his country in a horse leather shroud deserved his death. But I always come here to lose a son, and I feel so sad and helpless." It is especially outrageous to hide, especially when a child dies due to a conspiracy by traitors!”

Fang Jun took a sip of tea and didn't answer.

Changsun Guangzhi's behavior is indeed outrageous, and death a hundred times is not an exaggeration, but the fact is that even if Changsun Guang had not killed Paoze and falsely received military honors, Gao Zhenxing would have been impossible to survive.

Facing dozens or hundreds of times more enemies, Gao Zhenxing was determined to fight to the death at the mountain pass, and he begged for mercy and received mercy.

Of course, even if the outcome is the same, if Changsun Guang had not been involved, the nature of the incident would have been completely different. As a father, how could Gao Shilian not hate Changsun Guang to the core?

At the same time, Gao Shilian must have realized that if no one instigated him, Changsun Guang might not dare to do such stupid things that risked the disapproval of the world.

Earlier, Changsun Wuji left the Gao family, but not even the owner of the Gao family was sent out...

The two sat down and Gao Shilian sighed: "In the great Tang Dynasty and the mighty China, I really can't imagine that there is a despicable rat like Changsun Guang, who can do such inhumane behavior. If only others could do it, then the Gao family They are in-laws with the eldest son’s family. They have been inseparable from each other for decades, but now... Oh! It’s really frustrating and annoying!”

Without Gao Shilian, how could Changsun Wuji be where he is today?

Over the years, he has devoted too much effort and spent too much resources to support Changsun Wuji step by step from being an "abandoned son" of the Changsun family to gradually regaining control of the family and becoming a Guanlong noble. leader.

Without him, Gao Shilian, how could Guanyin, the maidservant, be able to marry Li Er, who was the King of Qin at that time, and how could she become the empress of Wende in the world of mother-in-law?

As a result, the Changsun family that he had supported with his own hands stabbed him in the heart. Not only did he lose his prestige and had to retire, but his son even died tragically...

The hatred of killing a son is irreconcilable.

It can be seen how much anger and resentment Gao Shilian has in his heart.

Fang Jun comforted and said: "The same rice feeds all kinds of people. There are some things that we would rather die than do, but some people don't care about them and are even complacent. The deceased is dead, so I still have to look at it a little bit and express my condolences." Tai Shigong once said that death is inevitable, and it may be lighter than a feather. , perhaps more important than Mount Tai. Gao Shilang sacrificed his life to resist the enemy, which eventually led to a great victory for the Anxi Army. The enemy soldiers who invaded invaded suffered countless casualties. This achievement will surely be recorded in the annals of history. Shiro's heroic name will be passed down forever, and the descendants of our Han family will pay tribute to him from generation to generation. , What’s the point of regretting death?”

Gao Shilian said warmly, and he felt somewhat relieved.

What's the use of being heartbroken when the person is already dead?

As Fang Jun said, although he died a little aggrieved, he died in a worthy manner and the achievements he left behind are enough to amaze the world. If he left such a mark in history, this life is enough.

In fact, he was more angry than sad. He had been standing on the cusp of the storm all his life, and his family was often overturned. What kind of thing had he not seen before? He quickly put away his feelings, suppressed all his sadness and anger, and said with a sigh: "That's what I said, but when it comes to things, how many people can really see through it like this? Well, the so-called life and death, wealth and honor are in heaven, When everyone is dead, what’s the point of crying and wiping away tears? It’s even more pointless to pursue those right and wrongs.”

Fang Junxin said, don't be so open-minded. If you put down all your grudges, wouldn't my visit today be in vain?

Thinking about his words in his mind, he said slowly: "Your Majesty is determined to make progress. The unreasonable laws and regulations in the court have been gradually abolished. It is just some bad habits left over that are difficult to change for a while. Many people still think and act in the same way as when the world was in chaos and chaos. The way they acted when all the heroes came together, they only pursued interests and ignored principles, and they acted recklessly and recklessly. In their eyes, military and criminal laws could only be manipulated. If his methods are allowed to continue so unscrupulously, there is no guarantee that what happened today will not happen again. The juniors have already advised Your Majesty that after the Eastern Expedition, a military discipline inspection should be carried out in the army to detect those who violated military discipline and national laws in the past. Things must be reported and exposed one by one, and then tried and convicted, and moral discipline must be eliminated. Only in this way can the army be united to resist foreign aggression.”

Gao Shilian subconsciously picked up the teacup, took a sip, and narrowed his eyes.

What kind of purge of military discipline is this?

The drunkard's intention is not to drink, but to attack dissidents in the army... Who is Fang Jun's "dissident"?

In other words, who is the target that His Majesty wants to attack?

Naturally, they are undoubtedly Guanlong nobles...

Without His Majesty's permission, even though Fang Jun is the Minister of the Ministry of War, he would not dare to carry out pickets and prosecutions in the army unscrupulously. Otherwise, once the morale of the army fluctuates, he, Fang Jun, will be the first to be unlucky.

Since His Majesty has given permission, it means that His Majesty is also deeply concerned about the foundation of the Guanlong nobles in the army, and has even made up his mind to clean up military discipline. He will dig out and clean up all the roots of the Guanlong nobles among the generals.

If it were before, Gao Shilian might not believe that His Majesty Li Er could have the courage to have such thoughts before the Eastern Expedition, but just seeing that he could support the Ministry of War to seize the power of military trial from Weiwei Temple, it can be seen that Li Er How determined is His Majesty.

In this way...

Gao Shilian raised his eyelids and said slowly: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and the candle shines thousands of miles away. The bad habits of military law must be eradicated. If you still only focus on the interests of one family as in the past, you ignore the interests of the empire." Regardless, how can it be worthy of the current trend of the empire sweeping the world and unifying the world? And with the Ministry of War under the control of talents like Erlang, I am very pleased to be able to implement your Majesty's will."

Fang Jun said modestly: "I don't dare to praise the old Duke like this... The juniors are too young, how can they suppress those arrogant and powerful generals? At the critical moment, the pillar of the country like the old Duke has to come forward to suppress it. If At that time, the younger generation will come to the house and hope that the old prince can help me.”

It's not enough for you to just be "deeply pleased" here. How can it be so cheap to just talk?

You have to be serious about it...

"Haha..."

Gao Shilian seemed to be smiling but not smiling. He stroked his beard and pondered for a while before saying: "I have retired to the official position and am playing tricks on my grandchildren all day long. I have no longer asked about the affairs of the court. Besides, how can I intervene in the affairs of the army?" We have to take action? We need a talented person like Erlang to put in a lot of effort.”

Fang Jun was disappointed in his heart, but it didn't show on his face. He said calmly: "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Even if the old prince retires from office, he should still use his remaining enthusiasm. How can he ignore world affairs and sit back and watch the bad habits in the army cause harm? Stand idly by? ”

Who doesn't know that you not only supported the Changsun family with one hand, but also have a general say among the Guanlong nobles?

You want to be clean, but have you forgotten how your son died?

By killing a mere eldest son, Sun Guang, do you really think that your great revenge will be avenged and you will feel at ease?

Gao Shilian raised his eyelids, glanced at Fang Jun, then stroked his beard and said nothing.

He understood that Fang Jun came to seek allies and took away the power of military trial from Weiwei Temple, which was equivalent to confronting the Guanlong nobles face to face. Obviously, His Majesty did not do what Fang Jun thought. Yan Na so unreservedly supported him in suppressing the Guanlong nobles, but this should involve a dispute over the prince, and Fang Jun had to deal with the Guanlong nobles ruthlessly.

But he himself felt a little lonely. After all, the Guanlong Group was a behemoth... (End of Chapter)
