Chapter 2583: Forming Cliques
Li Ji took a sip of wine, took a bite of food, pointed at Fang Jun, and said slowly: "Don't listen to this killer's nonsense. Those people in Guanlong are on the verge of collapse. The arrogance and arrogance in their bones will not allow them to act like turtles. Under such circumstances, they must stir up trouble and show their toughness, so as not to let the wall-riding faction at the front and back of the court think that they have no choice and leave Furong one after another. The assassination in Yuanyuan almost killed you. Although the murderers committed suicide by taking poison afterwards, and there was no evidence to prove it, those people in Guan Long could not escape their involvement. They dared to use military vehicles under His Majesty's eyes. Crossbow, you will definitely dare to take risks again, so you must ensure your own safety and never give the enemy the slightest opportunity.”
Publicly and privately, he doesn't want Fang Jun to have any accidents. This is definitely not the time to show off his fearless style. Even if he is ridiculed by people all over the world as "courageless" and "cowardly", he must come first. Keep yourself safe.
Fang Jun quickly nodded and accepted the instruction.
He had the same idea as Li Ji. There was no point in taking things for the sake of face. Only his life was the most important.
He is not willing to use his own life to challenge Changsun Wuji's bottom line...
The waiter came forward to pour the wine, and everyone present drank from the glass together. Fang Jun put down the glass and said: "Yesterday, His Royal Highness the King of Jin presented a memorial to His Majesty, saying that he wanted to ask for Your Majesty's forgiveness and permission to leave the palace to participate in Hengshan Mountain. His Majesty did not allow His Majesty’s wedding. However, His Majesty is very fond of His Majesty the King of Jin. It may not take long for the confinement order to be lifted and His Majesty the King of Jin to be free again.”
This news shocked everyone severely.
Logically speaking, this matter is not confidential. After all, His Royal Highness the King of Jin cannot enter the palace to see His Majesty on his own. Submission of memorials must go through the procedures of the Political Affairs Hall and the Shangshu Province, and must be reviewed and reviewed several times before finally being submitted to His Majesty's desk. This can be done in the room. Before Jun said this, no one here had heard anything about it.
Of course, except Li Ji, who is the minister Zuopushe...
Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and drove the waiter out. He pointed to Fang Jun and said: "Erlang pours the wine."
Fang Jun happily obeyed the order, carrying a wine flask and pouring wine for all the big guys present here. These are all powerful men in the imperial military. When he followed His Majesty Li Er in the north and south to conquer such a beautiful country, he was not born yet. Well, I have the honor to serve you all today, without any embarrassment or grievance.
Cheng Yaojin dropped his previous carefree look, frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty knew that His Highness the King of Jin was getting close to Changsun Wuji, and Changsun Wuji deliberately tried to target His Highness the King of Wei after he failed to seize the throne. It's Prince Jin...what do you think?"
On one side, the nobles of Guanlong were suppressed, and on the other side, the King of Jin, who was close to Guanlong, was released. Is it possible that His Majesty has another desire for Yi Chu?
The situation that was already gradually becoming clearer has become confusing again because of His Majesty Li Er's move...
Li Ji looked natural, took a bite of food and asked casually: "After the banquet, do you have anything else to do?"
Li Daliang said: "I have pretty much handed over all my responsibilities recently. I will take up my post after your majesty returns from the Eastern Expedition. Even my old bones can't move anymore. If I don't retreat, young people like Fang Erlang will have to take me." Wait for these old people who are occupying the toilet to be cut into pieces.”
Zhang Shigui was depressed. He put his chopsticks down on the table with a "pop" sound and said dissatisfied: "Can one or two of them be a little educated? You have to pee and pee endlessly. Are you going to let people eat?"
< br>
Li Ji said with a smile: "What kind of education do you expect from these talented killers? In the evening, let's go to Pingkangfang to find a brothel, and book a place to play mahjong, chat, and drink tea. We haven't eaten enough now, so we'll do it later. It’s not too late to eat.”
Then he pointed at Fang Jun: "Erlang is going too."
Fang Jun nodded, understanding that this was almost a gathering of the largest forces among the military factions, except for the Guanlong nobles.
The purpose of the gathering is also very clear. Everyone has been suppressed by the Guanlong nobles for many years, and now they finally see the opportunity to move to this mountain. How can they bring the Guanlong nobles back to life? It is naturally in the common interest of everyone to unite to impose sanctions.
Among them, the one who actually gained the most was Prince Li Chengqian.
If Guan Long wants to come back to life, the only possibility is to find a prince and achieve his goal of revival through Yi Chu. Once Yi Chu is born, the most unlucky person will naturally be Li Chengqian...
Of course, as a prince, Li Chengqian must not attend such a gathering of high-level military officials. Otherwise, His Majesty Li Er would easily suspect that he was trying to win over the military in an attempt to control the army.
This is an extremely sensitive area for the emperor. Even father and son have touched the emperor's final bottom line...
Fang Jun can only serve as the prince's spokesperson, and give everyone a concrete promise instead of the prince's straightforward promise.
Cheng Yaojin let out a laugh and teased: "The British Lord is kind-hearted, but I'm just afraid that some people don't dare to wander around Chang'an City in the middle of the night. Those dead soldiers and assassins may be hiding somewhere, maybe they will." If you are swarmed, if you are not prepared, all your fame and wealth will be wasted, and your beautiful wife and concubine will be taken into the house by others. Isn’t it unfair? ”
Fang Jun was speechless. Why was this old guy so hard on him today? Isn't it just to expose that you don't wash your hands after going to the toilet? You are really stingy...
Liu Hongji smiled and said: "Gong Lu is overly worried. I have seen Fang Erlang's group of soldiers. They are all arrogant and fierce soldiers. They have all been beaten in mountains of corpses and seas of blood. How can they be conquered by ordinary assassins and dead soldiers?" ? Not to mention equipped with the new foundry bureau With the muskets made recently, this kid is obviously most afraid of death, so he needs to be equipped with men and horses. Unless those people in Guanlong are looking for death, they will definitely not attack at this time. If a dog bites a hedgehog, there is no way to bite it! "
Everyone laughed. Just thinking about Fang Jun having to carry a team of soldiers armed to the teeth when he came in and out, they found the scene very funny.
Fang Er, who is unscrupulous and domineering, is not weak at all when he is cowardly.
Fang Jun said depressedly: "What Duke Kui said is that if you sail a ten-thousand-year-old ship carefully, how can you become a hedgehog?"
Everyone laughed louder and louder. Liu Hongji and Li Daliang were not familiar with Fang Jun before. Only now did they realize that the external rumors were indeed wrong. The reason why this boy was domineering and arrogant was just for outsiders. Once recognized by him, if they are in the same camp, Respecting the elderly does not require others to do the same.
Li Ji said: "Okay, let's eat quickly, drink less wine, and have a good time together in the evening."
Fang Jun quickly picked up the jug and filled the wine glasses in front of everyone, then threw away the jug and started eating and drinking.
Cheng Yaojin reprimanded: "Children have to hold a pot and pour wine for their elders. This is the rule. You kid is the best for cheating and slipping."
Fang Jun chewed the vegetables and retorted: "It was the British father who told everyone to drink less. Why are you so angry at me? How can you argue with the British father? How can you bully a junior!"
Cheng Yaojin choked heavily and looked unhappy.
How dare he argue with Li Ji? Although Li Ji was younger than him, he had always been a "strategist" since the time he conquered Wagang Mountain. He was savvy and wise in making plans. Cheng Yaojin was dissatisfied seven times and resented eight, but he wholeheartedly respected Li Ji.
To be precise, it should be a mixture of respect and fear.
Even though Li Jiping remained silent, seemed like he would never get angry, and had a very low sense of presence, he was full of bad intentions, and when it came to conspiracy and conspiracy, he was not like Changsun Wuji...
Fortunately, there were footsteps outside the door at this time, and Wei Shuyu, radiant in auspicious clothes, walked in first, followed by a group of elders of the Wei family and the best man.
Wei Shuyu first clasped his fists in greeting, with a happy face, and said: "Thank you uncles for coming. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you. Erlang is also here."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly discovered that there was Fang Jun among the big guys, and he couldn't help but hesitate. Although this person had a prominent position, he was definitely not an elder.
But at this moment, I couldn't change my words, so I had to say: "You have taken the trouble of your busy schedule to come and congratulate me. My nephew is very grateful. I would like to offer you three glasses of water and wine here to express my sincerity. I would also like to thank you for your visit on behalf of His Highness Hengshan. Now This love is as high as the mountains and the rivers are far away.”
Behind him, the groomsmen came forward and poured wine one by one.
During the dinner, Li Ji was honored. He raised the wine glass, his eyes turned red, and sighed with emotion: "My brother Xuancheng's soul is in heaven. If I can see the great man now a perfect match, he will definitely be happy. Xuancheng and I Side by side with my brother After fighting for many years, we have become brothers and sisters, and we naturally regard Dalang as a nephew. I hope that Dalang will devote himself to the king's affairs, make contributions to his career, continue to honor his reputation, and never forget his ambition." (End of this chapter)
