Chapter 4013 Irresistible


Chapter 4013 Irresistible

The little girl has been married for a long time, but she still looks like a girl waiting to be married. She wears a white pleated skirt embroidered with gold, showing her youthful beauty. She is smiling like a flower. After serving tea, she sits directly on the chair next to Fang Jun and smiles slightly. He tilted his head, his beautiful eyes were shining, and he said crisply: "Brother Fang is really powerful. He led his army to fight thousands of miles and won consecutive battles. He can be called a hero of the world, and my little sister is heartbroken."

Still as innocent as before.

However, Fang Jun had a headache when facing this little fan girl who "coveted" him. At the same time, I was suspicious in my heart, could it be that this girl used her father's name to trick her here today?

He smiled and said: "My little sister is over-praised. The little bit of inheritance is not as good as my father's tenth. Your flattery makes Brother Yu feel ashamed, haha."

His eyes looked at the steward standing aside.

The manager was helpless. Although Fang Jun and the Li family were close friends, it was inappropriate for a married daughter to be so warm and hospitable. Especially since the young couple is not in a good relationship and they are arguing about getting divorced all day long. If word spreads about their close relationship with Fang Jun, it may not sound good...

Seeing Fang Jun's questioning look, he bowed slightly and said, "The master of the house will be here later."

Fang Jun nodded. It was indeed Li Ji who invited him here. Otherwise, if the girl in front of him was really up to something, he would have a headache...

Li Yulong was in high spirits. He leaned sideways on the coffee table and raised his chin slightly: "I heard that during the Western Expedition, my second brother single-handedly killed the son of the Caliph of the Great Eclipse in the midst of an army. Is this true?"

Women always worship the strong, and admiration is mostly born from worship...

Fang Jun was so embarrassed by his little fan girl's enthusiasm that he complained in his heart and called out "Second Brother". Could it be that I have become Jia Baoyu? In particular, the steward of the Li Mansion seemed to be respectful and downcast, but in fact his ears were perked up and he had no choice but to do the work perfunctorily...

When he heard the sound of footsteps outside the door, Li Jida, dressed in regular clothes and with three locks of long beard, stepped inside. Fang Jun quickly stood up and saluted, letting out a long sigh of relief.

Li Ji first smiled gently at Fang Jun, then turned to look at his daughter, frowning and scolding: "Erlang is a guest here, but you don't know the etiquette and come here to make noise?"

Li Yulong snorted and was not afraid of him: "Second brother Fang and my family are well connected, so why should we avoid it?"

Li Ji waved his hand impatiently: "As my father, I have important matters to discuss with Erlang. You are not allowed to mess around and leave quickly."

"Oh," Li Yulong muttered dissatisfied, and saluted Fang Jun Wanfu, with a pretty face full of expectation: "My little sister asked the kitchen to prepare a banquet. Brother Fang should have lunch before leaving."

Although Fang Jun didn't want to get too involved with her, he couldn't refuse: "Thank you for your help, sister."

Li Yulong was in high spirits and walked out of the study quickly, her skirt dancing like a butterfly...

Seeing Fang Jun's obviously relieved look, Li Ji smiled half-heartedly: "My father and I are gentlemen, but you juniors are much closer, which is not bad."

If there was anyone among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty that Fang Jun could not figure out, the first one to bear the brunt was the British Duke Li Ji. Fang Jun was even more afraid of him than Changsun Wuji. This gentleman seems to be elegant, easy-going, polite, and elegant, but in fact he is deep, resourceful, and the best at forbearance. He always seems to have a faint smile on his face, but it is hard to see through.

This monarch rose from being demoted to a high-ranking official, and became the chief minister and assistant in the Tang Empire, inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. At the same time, he could firmly control the military power and was not jealous of Li Er and Li Zhi, his father and son. He can be said to have emotional intelligence. Highly skilled and unpredictable, if Sun Tzu hadn't gone astray, the Li family would have been a first-class prominent family in the Tang Dynasty.

Fang Jun was not sure about Li Ji's intentions. Was he really planning to reconcile his daughter with Du Huaigong and marry me as a concubine?

He quickly asked: "I should obey my uncle's wishes...but today my uncle sent someone to call my nephew here with great fanfare, but what are his orders?"

Now that His Majesty Yi Chu is about to come, the first goal is to cut off the wings of the East Palace to avoid violent backlash after Yi Chu's decree is promulgated. He and Li Jing, who have the military power, will be suppressed and Guo seizes the military power. At this time, anyone who has even crossed the East Palace The secretaries are all afraid and suspicious of His Majesty Li Er, let alone Li Ji, the chief minister and the most famous commander in the world?

Now that we are openly invited to a private meeting in the bustling city, I am afraid that His Majesty Li Er will not be able to sleep well tonight...

Li Ji signaled Fang Jun to have tea with a kind attitude: "With your current status, Fang Jun, why do you need to be cautious and walk on thin ice? If you extend your head with a knife, if you shrink your head, it will still be a knife. Just because you are cautious, the situation will not change in any way. In this case , why avoid its edge, why not move forward bravely. ”

Fang Jun shook his head and said: "The general trend of the world and the righteousness of our reputation. As ministers, we should be loyal to the king. Although we occasionally stumble, our stance must be firm, our attitude must be sincere, we must admit our mistakes, and we must stand upright when we are beaten."


Are you kidding me? You, a deep-seated, far-sighted and insidious guy, are encouraging us to say that we really think that we are so powerful that we can compete with His Majesty Li Er? With a foundation as deep as yours, aren't you just putting your tail between your legs and letting His Majesty Li Er knead and flatten you, bowing your head and giving in?

If you really take a few mouthfuls of the ecstasy soup and then scream and charge at His Majesty Li Er, then I will really be a stick...

The phrase "stand at attention when being beaten" was originally spoken by Fang Jun. Now it is widely circulated among the dandies in Chang'an, and is often ridiculed at themselves. The fact that it was said by Fang Jun at this moment is enough to show Fang Jun's attitude.

Li Ji couldn't help but laugh: "Do you think I'm lying to you?"

Fang Jun naturally refused to admit it: "My nephew knows the difference between the emperor and his ministers, and he is even more loyal to the emperor."

"Haha..."

Li Ji smiled and shook his head. This kid is very slippery. He is not lucky enough to have the merits and status he has today. It is just that he did not panic and grab a handful of straws when faced with difficulties, but remained the same. Maintaining such caution is not something ordinary people can do.

After taking a sip of tea, he looked at Fang Jun with a smile and asked, "What do you think His Majesty will do when he finds out about my private meeting with you?"

Fang Jun smiled bitterly: "So why did uncle harm me? Now that I have been seized of military power by His Majesty, if I just obey the orders honestly, that's all. Perhaps thinking of my past achievements, I can still live a steady life doing idle work. As long as there is a slight change, Disaster is bound to happen.”

Li Ji looked at him and said slowly: "If you knew this, why did you come here alone?"

No matter how broad-minded your Majesty is and how much he trusts his ministers, when Fang Jun, who controls the Youtun Guards and the Navy, is mixed with people like Li Ji, he will inevitably become wary and take necessary measures. Respond to possible dangers.

And this so-called "failure" can only target Fang Jun, not Li Ji...

Fang Jun also sat upright, looked at Li Ji with burning eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Because my nephew wants to see whether the British prince, who is the prime minister of the empire, has a heart for the country and the people, and is willing to submit to authority. Follow the trend, but still have ambitions, and are willing to do something to prevent the Tang Dynasty and the people of the world from falling into turmoil. ”

Except for His Majesty Li Er, who is as stone-hearted as possible, and those who are ready to gain benefits, who among the knowledgeable people in the government and the public does not know that Yi Chu will not only plunge the world into turmoil, but will also affect the accession of every new king in the Tang Empire?

His Majesty Li Er ascended to the throne by virtue of the "Xuanwumen Incident". No matter how much he whitewashes it to the outside world or how much he preaches that he was incapable of controlling himself at the time, "usurpation against the will" is an undisputed fact. "Killing brothers and forcing fathers to abdicate" will surely go down in history and become a stain that can never be washed away.

If the prince insists on deposing the prince without any obvious fault, no matter which prince is appointed as the new prince, then the succession of the throne since the founding of the Tang Dynasty has never been carried out in accordance with the universal concept of "succession", and it will be inevitable. It will set a very bad example for future generations.

Not the eldest son? Not the prince?

It doesn't matter, as long as you are willing to fight and fight, you will eventually have a glimmer of hope to usurp...

As a result, the succession of the throne of the Tang Dynasty will fall into the abyss of fratricide and brotherly feud. Every succession of the throne will be accompanied by bloody and cruel killings, until the vitality of the empire is exhausted bit by bit. The great empire of Nuo It collapsed amid internal fighting.

He knew that with Li Ji's wisdom he could see through the future, but he didn't know whether Li Ji would be willing to go against His Majesty's will for the sake of the future of the Tang Dynasty.

Sure enough, Li Ji fell into silence after hearing these words, and slowly sipped the tea until the cup was finished. Fang Jun held the pot to refill his cup, and then slowly said: "As you said, the general trend cannot be violated. , It’s really stupid to act like a mantis.”

Fang Jun's expression remained normal, but when he put down the teapot, his wrist trembled slightly, and the lid of the teapot shook, making an inaudible sound.

Disappointment is inevitable.

To this day, the only one who can save Yi Chu's situation is Li Ji, who has great prestige and military power. If even Li Ji is wise enough to protect himself, the situation of Yi Chu will be difficult to reverse, and the outcome of the prince and the entire East Palace will be doomed.

If that's the case, then why did you call me here with great fanfare today?

Seemingly feeling the disappointment and dissatisfaction in Fang Jun's heart, Li Ji clicked his tongue, as if savoring the sweetness of the tea, and suddenly said for a long time: "The general trend cannot be violated, but other things may not be impossible to do."

Fang Jun was puzzled: "What does uncle mean?"

Li Ji shook his head without answering, sighed, and waved his hand to see the guest off casually: "It's hard to think about why I called you here today, and how His Majesty would react to it... It's best to think clearly. If you don't understand, just forget about it. The so-called planning is up to you. , everything depends on God, who can foresee the opportunity and predict the future? ”

After saying that, he actually got up and left, leaving Fang Jun alone in the study.

Fang Jun thought carefully about what Li Ji had just said, especially when he thought of Li Ji asking him how His Majesty would react when he learned that the two of them met in private, his eyes suddenly lit up... (End of Chapter)
