Chapter 2789 Daily life in the house

At first, when Li Zhi got permission from his father to join the military department, Li Chengqian almost panicked.

He has been the emperor for more than ten years, and his father has arranged many big men in his East Palace to serve as emperor's advisors. This is a crushing advantage for the other princes. As a result, after so many years, he and the emperor's advisor were once at odds with each other. The relationship between them was extremely tense, and they were unable to conquer any of the power offices at the center of the imperial court.

After finally getting the support of General Fang Jun, the Ministry of War became his strongest foundation. If Li Zhi were to take advantage of him again, it would not only greatly reduce the strength of the East Palace, but also destroy the prestige of the prince.

There is also news that Changsun Wuji has assigned Gao Jifu to Zhinu as an aide...

During that time, His Royal Highness was in constant panic.

But within a few days, news came that Gao Jifu had been assassinated outside Mingde Gate.

Li Chengqian was shocked that Chao Gang was now corrupted, so he naturally breathed a sigh of relief...

Immediately, something that made him even more happy happened. Zhinu entered the military department with the power of thunder, but he encountered a blow. Various problems came one after another, which made Zhinu anxious and devastated. The news spread throughout all the yamen in the central government. .

There are people who take pleasure in misfortunes, there are people who are angry, there are people who watch good things happen...

Especially when he heard that Changsun Wuji had to supply iron and copper materials to the foundry bureau at a price far lower than the cost to maintain the prestige of Zhinu, Li Chengqian felt secretly happy. We are both nephews, so why did you support Qingque first, and now support Zongnu, but you still treat me, the prince, so slowly?

Although we have different philosophies, I will definitely continue my father's policy and continue to suppress powerful families in the future, but you are my uncle after all, so can I still treat you badly?

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince popped his crown to celebrate.

Therefore, in the face of a capable and blessed general like Fang Jun, how can we not favor him and support him with joy?

……

The two of them took their seats together. Li Chengqian held Fang Jun's hand, his smile faded, and he said sincerely: "As a solitary person, Erlang must know that this time you were assassinated in Jiangnan, and you are really worried when you are alone in Chang'an. Spread wings and fly to Jiangnan to find out the details . Although I want to create a great career, I absolutely don’t want the people close to me to suffer mishaps. If even you have some shortcomings, even if I get my wish and live in the world one day, there will be no one to share the wealth. What’s the point? Meaning?”

Fang Jun was naturally moved.

What can I say about Li Chengqian? His IQ is not bad, but his EQ is a bit low. It is difficult for him to have the superb acting skills of outstanding figures in history. Moreover, his character is a bit weak, not strong enough, and has many shortcomings.

However, this man really has a kind heart and is sincere.

As for the records about him in the history books, not to mention how many of them are true, even if there are, most of them are due to the distortion and split in his personality, style, etc. under tremendous pressure. Just imagine, a person who was canonized as a prince at the age of eight, has been welcomed and treated as a prince by the outside world for more than ten years, and suddenly he has to face one after another challenges from his own younger brother. If he is not careful, he will lose the title of prince. position, and the whole family will not end well. Who can accept it calmly?

If it were someone with a stronger personality, it might be a bloody coup.

In fact, until Li Chengqian was finally imprisoned and sentenced to death on the charge of "treason", it was just a so-called "exposure" by two inconspicuous little people. As the prince, Li Chengqian never did anything. A treasonous thing...

For another reason, the reason why Li Chengqian behaved in various weird ways until he finally had no choice but to have a lot to do with the people around him.

After being the prince for more than ten years, he has been surrounded by countless people, all of whom are tied to Li Chengqian's interests. Seeing that Li Chengqian's position as prince is in danger, how can these people remain calm? A counterattack is inevitable.

As a result, at that time, Li Chengqian no longer had a mainstay who was proficient in practical matters and had great power. There were only some incompetent people who were either flattering or incompetent, or so-called great scholars who were invincible and unable to offer suggestions to reverse the defeat.

Even the Su family, as the Crown Princess, may have put tremendous pressure on Li Chengqian and interfered randomly, leading to the final and unstoppable collapse of the entire East Palace.

Things like Si Chen's hen are a big taboo for those in power. Those great scholars who talk about moral articles think they can protect the prince and ensure that the prince will be stable in the future and inherit the throne. How can they accept a woman scolding Fang Qiu? Pointing fingers?

Judging from the performance of the Crown Princess just now, this is entirely possible.

This princess looks gentle and virtuous, but she is definitely an ambitious master.

But after all, men have always been superior to women in this world. "The morning of the hen is the rope of the family". Although it has no scientific basis and is just a conjecture, when everyone thinks that this is an ominous sign, it is an intolerable omen. The role of subverting rules and at least disrupting military morale cannot be ignored.

After all, there is only one Wu Zetian in the world...

We still have to find an opportunity to remind Li Chengqian.

Not long after, Crown Princess Su returned. With a gentle smile, she asked the two of them to move to the side hall. The table was already filled with banquets. Li Chengqian invited Fang Jun to take a seat and poured the wine himself.

In the evening, Li Chengqian was drunk with wine, his ears were hot and his eyes were blurred, so Fang Jun said goodbye and left.

After leaving the East Palace, Fang Jun breathed out the breath of alcohol and saw his carriage waiting at the door. Apparently the news of his return to Beijing had spread back home.

A steward came forward, bowed and said with a smile: "Erlang, the head of the family ordered us to drive here and take Erlang back to the house."

Fang Jun nodded and said: "Thank you."

Then he jumped on the carriage, and the coachman flicked his whip, making a whip in the air, making a sharp explosion, and walked towards Chongrenfang with the clatter of the horse's hooves.

The rest of the soldiers mounted their horses one after another, shouting in front of them and marching together.

After returning to the mansion, Fang Jun immediately went to his father Fang Xuanling's study room. When he opened the door, he saw his mother was there.

"Father, mother, and son, please pay your respects to the two elders."

After saying that, he knelt on the ground and paid homage.

Mother Lu had already gotten up, stepped forward and grabbed Fang Jun, took his arm and sat on a chair, touched his head, face and shoulders, looked up and down, her eyes were filled with tears, and she complained: "You Why is this child so unhappy? What about peace of mind? I went to Jiangnan to help His Majesty the King of Wei get things done. Why did I have to fight with those Jiangnan nobles? Something serious?”

When the news of her son's assassination spread back to Chang'an, Lu almost fainted. Looking forward to the stars and the moon finally brought her son back, and her emotions were on the verge of collapse in an instant.

Fang Jun quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, mother, it's just a little bruise on the flesh, it has healed long ago."

Lu didn't believe it, and while wiping her tears, she insisted on asking him to take off his clothes and look at the wound.

Fang Xuanling put down the tea cup, knocked on the table, and said dissatisfiedly: "Everyone has come back, what else is there to worry about? A man's ambitions are all over the world, and there will always be some risks. Even if he stays at home, he may still be in trouble. Falling from the sky, crying is simply outrageous.”

Lu immediately pointed the muzzle at Fang Xuanling and glared angrily: "What kind of sarcastic words are you talking about? My son is the flesh that fell off my body. If you don't feel sorry for me, why don't you allow me to feel sorry for you?"

Fang Xuanling was so angry that his beard stood up: "What nonsense are you talking about? That's my son too!"

Mrs. Lu started bombarding mode: "What about a son? You men are lustful and unlucky. As long as you have a woman, you still worry about not having a son? Do you regret that I stopped you from taking a concubine, so you always feel regret in your heart? ? If I had had a few concubines who were as beautiful as flowers and jade, I would have had hundreds of descendants now, and there would be no need to look at the face of the old woman and keep her awake at night! "

"How can this not be true! How can it not be true!"

Fang Xuanling's old face flushed red, and she slammed the table with anger: "This is unreasonable! How could I have ever despised you? If I hadn't respected you, and with my character and official position, I wouldn't have married as many as I wanted. How much to marry?”

Madam Lu immediately retorted: "Ouch, did you accidentally say what was in your heart? After enduring it for so many years, Fang Xuanling has endured the humiliation and bear the burden! Hum, I don't care about you now, you are the one who has fallen in love with someone's daughter. Marry? It's time for everyone in Chang'an City to see how Fang Xuanling, who has been pretending to be a gentleman all his life, can suppress the begonias with a pear tree. Maybe you, an old guy, are still useless, and you are left with a son and a half daughter. The Fang family really is the world. Happy event.”

Fang Jun covered his face with one hand, dumbfounded. (End of chapter)
