Chapter 2822 Processing Method
I saw that all the guests on the street outside the door had retreated to both sides of the street. The guests standing at the door also quickly retreated into the door. A group of guards with helmets and armor quickly stepped forward to guard both sides of the door, holding horizontal swords in their hands. The fierce gaze and overwhelming aura scared the guests back together again.
The carriage the emperor was riding in slowly stopped, the door opened, and His Majesty Li Er, dressed in a brocade robe, stepped out of the carriage with the help of his chamberlain.
"We have an audience with Your Majesty!"
All the guests bowed their heads to the floor, and the sound shook the long street.
His Majesty Li Er seemed to be in a good mood. He held the jade belt in his hand, looked around, nodded and said with a smile: "No gifts, please! Today I came to Fang's house to congratulate you. It's just for the guests, no etiquette. Don't be restrained, let's be lively." That’s it.”
"Here!"
Everyone agreed and stood up one after another, but they still lowered their eyebrows and lowered their eyes and did not dare to express their anger.
Fang Jun and others quickly stepped forward and said in surprise: "Your Majesty is here in person. I am deeply honored. I just didn't know about it in advance and I was negligent. Please forgive me."
His Majesty Li Er looked at Fang Jun with a smile, then glanced across his face, looked at Li Tai and Li Zhi, then looked at Ma Zhou and Li Daozong deeply, nodded slowly, and said casually: "I I just wanted to come here on a whim, so I didn’t prepare in advance. How can I blame you?”
Fang Jun bowed, stepped aside, and said respectfully: "There are many people outside, so please come in and take a seat."
At any time, the safety of the emperor is the top priority. If there is even the slightest mistake, it will be enough to cause a tsunami-like shock, and even have earth-shaking consequences.
Especially for such a casual move out of the palace, it is inevitable that there will be omissions in security and defense. If one is in danger in front of the Fang family's gate, the consequences will not be something that the Fang family can afford...
Unexpectedly, His Majesty Li Er stood on the stone steps and said with a smile: "Wait a moment."
Fang Jun and others were stunned and confused, and then saw a figure getting off a carriage behind the motorcade, walking quickly to the steps, slightly out of breath, and said: "Your Majesty."
Fang Jun and others were all stunned.
It was actually Changsun Wuji...
Based on the current grudge between Fang Jun and Changsun Wuji, although the two families cannot be said to be fighting to the death, they are trying their best to trip each other up, completely dust them off and never stand up again. This kind of relationship that has been openly broken for a long time, how can we come to congratulate him?
His Majesty Li Er stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Earlier, Duke Zhao was discussing state affairs with me in the palace. It happened that I wanted to go to the Fang family to congratulate him and ask for a glass of water and wine. Duke Zhao asked me to come with him. You and I will be officials in the court. , it is inevitable that there will be some disagreements between each other, but we are the pillars of the empire, so we should not hurt each other's feelings. Today is a chance, how about taking advantage of the Fang family's happy event and letting go of the grudges with a smile."
Fang Jun was silent.
This person from Changsun Yin has plotted against me many times. He already has a deep hatred. How can he laugh away his grudges?
The most important thing is, how could Changsun Wuji be willing to laugh away our grudges with me? This man has always blamed himself for the tragic experiences of his sons, and wishes he could skin and tear himself apart. This kind of hatred can only end after one party completely collapses...
Especially what His Majesty Li Er said, it was obvious that he forced Changsun Wuji to come to the Fang family to congratulate him...
Changsun Wuji stepped forward, with a kind and kind smile on his round face that had already developed age spots. There was no hint of the embarrassment and embarrassment he felt after being forced: "Erlang is young and promising. I have always regarded you as my nephew. Normally, Although there are arguments due to different political opinions, today is a happy event for the house, and I have to come to the door in person to say congratulations and ask for a glass of wine. "
Although the guests who were far away around did not dare to approach, they could still hear Changsun Wuji's words clearly, and they couldn't help but complain in their hearts: The wine house really can't give you this glass of water. Who knew that I would give you a glass of water today? Wine, will you bring Fang Er’s fried skin and steamed bones to drink with tomorrow?
Fang Jun glanced at His Majesty Li Er, who was stroking his beard and smiling silently, and smiled and said to Changsun Wuji: "Since the juniors became officials, Zhao Guogong has given many teachings, which have benefited the juniors a lot, and I can't thank you enough. Today, Zhao Guogong Being able to visit the house in person makes the Fang family feel happy and grateful..."
Having said this, he paused for a moment, showed a slightly shocked face, looked behind Changsun Wuji, and said hesitantly: "...but why didn't I see Zhao Guogong's servants and attendants bringing congratulatory gifts?" Come...ah ha, look at me , is really full of copper odor and is beyond comparison. Zhao Guogong is the pillar of the empire and the head of the noble family. It is an honor for the whole family of the Fang family to be able to come to Fang's house. As long as you have this heart, you don't care about those vulgar etiquette. "
After all, Changsun Wuji had been in the court for most of his life and had already become a master in cultivation. His face did not change due to Fang Jun's teasing, but the flesh on his cheeks still squirmed a few times, and it was obvious that he was biting hard.
He was called to Taiji Palace by His Majesty, and then he was taken directly to Fang's house without saying a word. How could he have time to prepare for the ceremony?
He had no intention of coming to congratulate the Fang family before...
However, in full view of the public, Fang Jun pointed at him and said that he came to the door empty-handed. This was indeed a serious rudeness, but he could not refute it. He could only get sulky and slander His Majesty Li Er with a few words: You hope that your ministers will do so. We don’t want to be hostile to each other to the death, but we can’t leave the face of an old minister on the ground and let others trample on it...
His Majesty Li Er put down the hand stroking his beard, clasped it behind his back, and walked towards the door: "I haven't seen such excitement in a long time. Please stop standing here, go in, sit down and talk slowly."
What he wants to see is that the hatred between Changsun Wuji and Fang Jun is relieved, and they don't disrupt the government by fighting life and death all day long. As for Changsun Wuji's face... You almost assassinated Fang Jun to death, I can't bear to ask. , it’s not too much to make you lose a little face today, right?
As soon as he walked into the gate, he saw the prince and Fang Xuanling trotting in hurriedly one behind the other. Apparently they had received the news of His Majesty's arrival and rushed out to pick him up. When they saw His Majesty Li Er already walking into the gate with his hands behind his back, the two of them The people quickly stopped and stood on one side, bowing to the ground together: "I have an audience with Your Majesty!"
His Majesty Li Er stopped, glanced at the prince, said "Hmm" in his nostrils, "No courtesy!"
Then he stepped forward and said to Fang Xuanling with a smile: "Xuanling's mansion is overjoyed, and all the guests and friends have been invited, but they have forgotten that I have been sitting in the Tai Chi Palace all day long. I am not willing to part with the water and wine in the mansion, or I have already left." Have you forgotten the friendship between our kings and ministers who fought side by side?”
As soon as these words came out, everyone knew that the reason why His Majesty kidnapped Changsun Wuji to the Fang family today was to vent his anger on the Fang family and to support the Fang family.
Previously, Fang Jun was assassinated in Jiangnan. Although everyone in the world speculated that Changsun Wuji was responsible, there was no evidence and no one could do anything about it. However, the lack of evidence does not mean that this matter was not done by Changsun Wuji, so His Majesty Li Er warned and punished Changsun Wuji in this way. It is okay to fight, but my bottom line must not be trampled.
Behind him, Zhang Sun Wuji had a round face that was red and white, making him extremely ugly.
But what could he say?
He had broken through the bottom line that His Majesty Li Er had maintained and made the emperor angry. However, in order to stabilize the situation of the court and not affect the great cause of the Eastern Expedition, he adopted a tolerant attitude and did not pursue strict investigation, but it did not mean that he would let it go.
This anger had to be suppressed for the sake of the overall situation, but once the Eastern Expedition ended in the future, no matter what the outcome, he would be free to deal with the chaotic situation of the court.
If we cannot respond in time, the Changsun family will bear the brunt...
Fang Jun naturally understood His Majesty Li Er's intention, but he was not satisfied with this way of handling it.
The reason why the bottom line is the bottom line is that it is the final boundary that cannot be crossed.
If it can be trampled on and crossed at will, and no one can be warned or deterred, and no one is afraid, then how can it be called the bottom line?
It is better to have no bottom line...
……
His Majesty Li Er went first, followed closely by Fang Xuanling and the Crown Prince, and then Sun Wuji, Li Tai, and Li Zhi walked towards the main hall in a clear-cut manner.
Li Zhi was worried. He felt that today his father wanted to publicly humiliate Changsun Wuji in order to comfort Fang Jun for the harm caused by the assassination. And once Zhangsun Wuji becomes disgraced, how can he lose face? Just thinking about being ridiculed and reprimanded by his father in front of everyone makes Li Zhi feel uncomfortable.
Just as he was hesitating in his heart, he felt his sleeve being pulled by someone, and then heard King Wei say: "Father, the son, ministers and slaves went to the side hall to drink and talk with the consorts."
His Majesty Li Er, who was walking in front, did not look back, but waved his hand casually and entered the main hall.
Li Zhi stopped, let out a long breath, turned around to meet Li Tai's smiling gaze, and felt warm in his heart, saying, "Thank you so much, Brother Qingque, I'm feeling worried right now..."
"Hush! What nonsense are you talking about? Let's go and sit in the side hall. I guess the fourth, fifth, and sixth brothers are all here too. We brothers will have a meeting with our consorts, and we have to put them down on the wine table. ! ”
"Well! I listen to my elder brothers and let them go!"
Li Zhi's eyes sparkled and he was full of energy. (End of chapter)
