Chapter 2652 Explanation before departure

Even when it comes to family matters, Fang Xuanling considers herself to be far superior to Changsun Wuji.

Now, his own son is outstanding. At such a young age, he relied on his own ability to earn a hereditary and irreplaceable title of Duke of the country. However, Changsun Wuji's sons are so scattered that there will be no trace of such a great business in the future. A good son to inherit...

In terms of the ability to educate his children, the gap between Changsun Wuji and himself is beyond calculation.

Especially when I think about the fact that the Fang family has become famous and prestigious in the following decades, while the eldest grandson's family has been deteriorating and cannot afford to sink, I feel a sense of pride and ambition filling my chest.

In both the family and the country, he has left Changsun Wuji, his lifelong old rival, far behind him. How can he not feel a bit proud and arrogant?

Ultimately, the essence of Chinese culture is that "one generation is better than the next". It doesn't matter if the older generation suffers a little, as long as they can raise their children to be talented, they can see hope in life, and the family bloodline can be continued for a long time in the future, and the lintel will be shining. , die with peace of mind.

So what if you are better than me?

Dust to dust to dust, my heir is better than you, that is true strength...

*****

King Li Tai of Wei was sitting at the table by the window in the hall, frowning as he watched Fang Jun pacing back and forth under the eaves in front of the corridor with his hands behind his back. He would also look up from time to time at the corn hanging under the eaves, and he could not help but wonder in his heart - Could it be that this kid got the title of Duke and went crazy with joy?

"Hey, why are you walking around like this?"

"Haha, you don't understand, you don't understand..."

Fang Jun stopped and raised his neck to look at the golden corn cobs under the eaves, on the flower wall, and in the corn barn. His mind seemed to travel through time, and he returned to the era of his previous life in a trance.

The outer bracts of the corn were stripped off, leaving only a few strands of the white and soft inner layer. They were tied together and hung up. The yellow corn cobs and the white strands of bracts would look perfect if it was snowing like that. The sense of sight of the Northeastern countryside...

How can this kind of sentiment spread from a scene that only exists in the mind be told to others?

Even if I say it, you won’t understand.

His Royal Highness the King of Wei was a little annoyed. This kind of mysterious person who pretends to be mysterious is the most annoying. He said displeasedly: "If you don't tell me, how can I understand?"

Fang Jun chuckled, turned into the hall from outside, sat opposite Li Tai, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and said slowly: "Heavy is the light of the roots, quiet is the impetuous king, so a gentleman will never leave. Your Majesty wants to do great things and make achievements that will last forever. You should be calm and calm. How can you despise the world? ”

This is a sentence in the "Tao Te Ching", which means that heaviness is the root of rashness, and tranquility is the master of restlessness. Therefore, a gentleman walks all day long without leaving the vehicle carrying luggage. Although there are delicious food and scenic spots to attract him, he can be at peace. Deal with it.

To say it here is to ridicule Li Tai's impetuousness and inquisitiveness.

Li Tai snorted angrily and said dissatisfied: "You think I haven't read the Tao Te Ching? In terms of other abilities, I may respect you a little, but when it comes to the books I have read, you are far behind!"

Fang Jun was in a good mood, so he joked with Li Tai: "Your Highness is really frivolous, Your Majesty and Zhao Guogong. When Song Guogong and other honorable ministers were talking, he politely called each other's title to show respect. Your Highness is just a prince. , but don’t you think it’s inappropriate to yell at and boss around this newly arrived Duke of Yue?”

Li Taisheng laughed angrily at him and said disdainfully: "Bah! I am a first-class prince, and my fiefdom is in Wei. It is also the place where Yu, Shun and Xia Yu were the capitals. How can it be compared to the southern barbarian Yue land? I am really a villain. With a face as big as a fingernail, a Duke of Yue can still raise his tail and be arrogant? That’s all you have!”

Fang Jun disagreed: "We are different. You were born well, had a good father, and single-handedly conquered this splendid country. You have no merit and just sit back and enjoy the success. Instead, you are shameless and talk without shame! This official is the real deal. The title earned through meritorious service, look at the corn hanging outside, it will spread throughout the world in just a few years, and all the people of the Tang Dynasty will have an extra high-yielding grain. What a great achievement is this?"

Li Tai was so angry that he raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "I compiled "Kuo Di Zhi" in those days. I extensively collected the classics and biographies, and also consulted old records and old news. It detailed the construction history of each political region, as well as the mountains and rivers, products, historical sites, customs, Characters, anecdotes, etc., a magnificent masterpiece, is the credit too small? ”

"Your Highness is wrong! It is true that the more than 500 volumes of "Kuo Di Zhi" compiled by His Highness are vast in scale and full of literary talent. They provide sufficient basis for Your Majesty to divide the ten realms of the world. However, its shortcomings are obvious."
< br>

"Fart! Even though "Kuo Di Zhi" can't be regarded as an ancient book, every word and every sentence is a collection of famous experts' words. What are the shortcomings?"

"Listen, Your Highness, you yourself said that this book is just a collection of words from famous experts... As far as Wei Chen knows, "Kuo Di Zhi" quoted forty-seven kinds of geography books, drawing on the strengths of many experts for your own use. , which quoted "Han Shu" forty-eight times... "Shui Jing Zhu" written by Li Daoyuan , the most famous "Three Gorges" is quoted from "Jingzhou Ji" written by Sheng Hong of the Jin Dynasty, and many articles in "Kuo Di Zhi" also quote "Shui Jing Zhu". You quote me, I quote you, so dare Ask Your Highness, what is the significance of "Kuo Di Zhi"?

"...Presumptuous! Bastard!"

Li Tai's eyes were so angry that he wanted to pull out a knife and kill this bastard with one blow.

In fact, he himself also understood that the documentary value of "Kuo Di Zhi" was actually not high. It was more because His Majesty Li Er wanted to make him the crown prince at that time, so he called on the great scholars in the court to compile it into a book, thinking that he was Li Tai's. political achievements.

But even if this is true, it is Li Tai's greatest achievement so far. How can he not be angry when he is said so badly?

Unable to hold back, he stood up, grabbed Fang Jun's arm, and dragged him out of the door, saying angrily: "Hurry up and head to Jiangnan with me. When I raise enough money and food, you can open schools in every country in the Tang Dynasty." Prefectures, counties and villages, let me see if I got this princely title through charity from my father!”

Fang Jun was caught off guard and was pulled staggering by him. He didn't dare to struggle hard to avoid hurting him, so he could only say in a loud voice: "Hey, hey, wait a minute, there are a lot of things going on here, how can we do it?" Just leave?”

Li Tai shouted: "You have been suspended, what the hell is going on?"

"Although the position of Minister of the Ministry of War has been suspended, isn't there still an academy? Let me tell you, Wei Chen, Xu Jingzong and Chu Suiliang are two old boys who are cunning and cunning. Wei Chen usually has to stare at them with wide eyes. If they are not careful, something will happen. If Wei Chen leaves for a few months without an explanation, the two of them will not be able to turn the academy upside down."

Li Tai snorted. He naturally knew how much his father valued the academy. He also knew that Xu Jingzong and Chu Suiliang had always been at odds with each other. Overt and covert fights were commonplace. But the problem was that no one in the court knew that Xu Jingzong had already completely surrendered to Fang. hansome?

As a latent hero of his father, one of the eighteen bachelors of the Qin Palace, he shamelessly begged for mercy and bowed down to Fang Jun, who was a generation younger than him. This shocked the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty. It also refreshed the level of understanding of Xu Jingzong's lack of bottom line.

"Then Xu Jingzong is obedient to your orders. Even if you leave the capital for the time being, will he still dare to change his family? With him in charge of the academy, how can Chu Suiliang be his opponent? Don't fool me. If you have anything to do, please explain it quickly. , after the explanation, we will set off immediately!”

He had been waiting impatiently these days, and now Fang Jun was so angry that he didn't want to stay any longer.

Fang Jun had no choice but to agree.

There is nothing to explain in Zhuangzi. The corn and sweet potatoes have been stored and they are just waiting for planting in the coming spring. The peppers, peanuts and other crops have also been harvested. The remaining grains are harvested by Lu Cheng and the villagers. There is no What a problem.

The two rode horses, surrounded by personal guards, into Chang'an City and arrived at the Yamen of the Ministry of War.

When the soldiers in front of the door saw Fang Jun coming from a distance, they hurriedly bowed and stepped forward to greet them. They took the reins of the horses and without saying a word, invited Fang Jun and King Wei into the Yamen.

After entering the door, many scribes hurriedly came forward to greet them. Fang Jun responded to them one by one with a smile. When they entered the main hall, all the officials in the Yamen came out to meet them. Seeing Wei Wang Li Tai standing aside, his heart was sour - this special Damn, is this the treatment of being suspended?

If he had not been suspended, how high would Fang Jun's prestige be in the Ministry of War?

One of the six departments of the imperial court, it has simply become Fang Jun’s private place. No one dares to disobey whatever he says...(End of Chapter)
