Chapter 2627 The blame is ready
Fang Xuanling pondered for a moment and asked, "Is this your idea or the prince's?"
Fang Jun shook his head and said: "The prince is so benevolent, how can he be willing to go to war and enforce the truth? Naturally, this kind of thing requires a child to get ahead. With this opportunity, it can also be seen by those who want to follow King Jin, so that they can act accordingly. Scruples, only in this way can the fight be controlled within a certain range, so as not to lose the bottom line and become colluding. ”
He knows the Guanlong nobles very well. These people usually don't pay attention to the king's law. They only judge by strength. If you are defeated by him, they will do their best to defeat you completely by any means. On the contrary, if they hit a stone, they will immediately cease their activities. , somewhat convergent.
He offended the Guanlong nobles the most, what was the result? Those people now have no voice to shout. They only dare to secretly think of some conspiracies, but they are not ruthless enough to implement them.
That's a group of people who bully the weak and fear the strong...
Fang Xuanling sighed: "You are too involved."
He has always adhered to the principle of impartiality, remaining neutral in the battle for the throne, and only loyal to the emperor. Whoever inherits the throne in the future will be the true emperor, and will never get involved in the battle for the throne.
At first, Fang Jun had the same political views as himself, but later he gradually developed into a solid supporter of the prince, which made him deeply worried.
Although he didn't understand why his son defended the prince so brazenly and even labeled himself a "princeling" and vowed to unite himself and the prince to advance and retreat together, Fang Xuanling never stopped him. He believed that Fang Jun's performance With his political wisdom, he has his own reasons for making such a choice.
In the future, Fang Jun will need to inherit this huge family business. Whether it is smooth sailing or he experiences setbacks, he will have to understand and experience it himself.
But it's one thing to support the prince, but it's another thing to take revenge on those who oppose the prince.
It is common for people to have political disagreements in the court. Many people fight endlessly for interests in the court and refuse to give in, but in private they have good personal relationships. Everyone has their own position, this is the tacit truth, but once it involves private retaliation, the nature completely changes.
Fang Jun didn't take it seriously and explained: "If someone else does this, it will definitely offend a large number of people. After all, it goes beyond the bottom line of political struggle. Just like Hao'er and the Guanlong nobles, they have already taken on a deadly feud. . But with the child coming forward, everyone But he just thinks that this incident has angered the child, and it is natural for Bangchui to get angry and retaliate. As long as the method and consequences are controlled, even Xie Yan and the others will not regard the child as an enemy and will not stop fighting. "< br>
This is the benefit of a bad temper.
Everyone knew that he was a stickler. He supported the prince wholeheartedly, but was interfered with and provoked a dispute over the throne. How could he not get angry? When you have a bad temper, you have no choice but not to go too far. Everyone can understand it and will not associate it with the prince.
After all, the prince is known to be kind and kind. How could the kind and peaceful prince take revenge on his ministers...
As long as revenge is not associated with the prince, the matter will be controlled within a certain range, which will not only have the effect of punishing past mistakes and avoiding future consequences, but will not cause widespread dissatisfaction and fear.
Fang Xuanling thought carefully and approved Fang Jun's approach, but warned: "You must pay attention to control and never cause irreversible consequences. Otherwise, public opinion will be fierce. Not to mention that the prince cannot protect you, even your majesty will blame you." You will really become a lonely minister at that time. Unless the prince successfully succeeds to the throne, all your future will be ruined.”
Fang Jun naturally knew the importance: "Father, don't worry, the child has his own sense of control, and the child doesn't need to take action himself."
Fang Xuanling asked curiously: "What do you want to do?"
"Ahem, before the child was in Jiucheng Palace, His Royal Highness the King of Wei came to look for me and was anxious to go to the south of the Yangtze River with me. The last time the Zhentian Lei of Huating Town was stolen, the Jiangnan nobles forced many Guanlong nobles to do something to the child. Compensation, what do children think? Illegitimate wealth is not suitable for receiving. It happened that His Highness the King of Wei was in urgent need of funds to develop county schools and township schools, so I donated the property money to His Highness the King of Wei, which was considered as a contribution to the education of the Tang Dynasty. "
"This is a good job. The most useless things in the world are yellow and white things. My family is now full of gold and silver. Why should I covet other people's properties? It makes people jealous. But you are sure that King Wei will follow your instructions. Act according to your will?”
"Father, don't worry. Now the King of Wei is very poor and has very few copper coins in his pocket. He will listen to whoever gives him money. Besides, with the pretense of raising money, no one will think that he has turned to the prince." By the way, he is naturally unscrupulous in what he does. His Highness has never been afraid of getting into trouble, and he will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.”
"...You have a good idea, but you are a little immoral."
"What my father said is wrong. It's just that everyone gets what he needs. Besides, the current King of Wei doesn't care about the reserve at all, but running schools all over the world has brought him a great reputation. He needs to do something to come from Get dirty and explain your position.”
"Okay, anyway, you can decide for yourself and don't screw His Highness too hard. Although His Highness is a bit proud, arrogant and willful, he is absolutely good in nature. As long as he is willing to go around and do his best for the education of Datang, then Worthy of admiration.”
"Remember your father's teachings."
"Let's go. Since His Royal Highness the King of Wei is here, I naturally have to pay my respects as a father. We must not lose our etiquette."
"Here!"
……
The two father and son came out of the main hall and arrived at the guest room, where they saw Wei Wang Li Tai standing in front of the west window with a teacup in hand. He opened the window and looked intently.
There was the faint sound of children reciting.
Seeing Fang Xuanling and his son, Li Tai quickly put the tea cup on the coffee table next to him, raised his hand and saluted: "Student has met Liang Guogong."
As one of the most knowledgeable people in the imperial court, Li Tai also studied with Fang Xuanling back then. Not only was he deeply impressed by Fang Xuanling's knowledge, but he also admired Fang Xuanling's personality. In front of Fang Xuanling, he always held the ceremony of son and nephew.
Fang Xuanling did not dare to ask for help and quickly returned the gift: "I have met His Highness the King of Wei."
After the ceremony, the three of them took their seats respectively. Fang Xuanling glanced out the window and asked, "What is your Highness looking at?"
Li Tai said: "The buildings with glass inlays not far away are the schools of the farm, right?"
Fang Xuanling raised his eyes and looked outside. From this angle, he could just see the corner of the school, and there was the sound of children reading, so he nodded and said: "Exactly."
"I heard that compulsory education has been implemented in Fangjia Farm for a long time. All school-age children in the farm must go to school, and the village will pay some miscellaneous fees for education. When Liang Guogong was in the court, he cared about all the people working diligently in government affairs, and he refused to retire from office. It is really admirable to have such a state of mind when you are free to educate future generations and continue Chinese culture regardless of investment.”
Li Tai said with enthusiasm.
Everyone knows the importance of education. Since ancient times, if you want to break through class barriers, you must either study literature to rule the country or practice martial arts to make achievements. But who can force the slaves in the family to also study literature and martial arts, but have to bear the expensive tuition?
On the one hand, there is absolutely no need to spend this money. On the other hand, slaves are slaves and they just work for their masters. What is the use of learning so much?
Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and said: "Your Highness has given you too much praise. He is just teaching some superficial knowledge to the children. It will be enough for them to be able to read and count in the future."
Although his words were modest, the pride between his brows could not be concealed.
Although it was Fang Jun's idea to set up a private school to make school-age children in the village compulsory to attend...but without the support of his own father, how could he succeed?
It is natural that the son’s contribution should be borne by the father...
Li Tai said sincerely: "The reason why I established the 'Datang Culture Promotion Association' was because of Erlang's guidance. Later, I saw the changes and efforts made by your government in education, and then I made up my mind. Nowadays, various places There are many county schools and township schools established, so The expenses are raised by my father’s internal funds and the king’s various sources. Although I am stretched thin, I can still manage to support it. However, the teaching staff is seriously insufficient. I hope that Liang Guogong can help us to build an unprecedented educational prosperity. "< br>
Although Fang Xuanling did not form cliques when he was in power, after more than ten years as Prime Minister and Assistant Secretary, his disciples and former officials were spread all over the world, especially the Shandong aristocratic family behind them, which was the root of Chinese studies. If these seven sects and five surnames could be brought together, The disciples went to county schools and township schools all over the country to serve as teachers, and the lack of teachers in their eyes was easily solved.
As for whether this approach would allow the Shandong family to take the opportunity to grow and break the current balance of power in the court, it was not within his consideration. (End of chapter)
