Chapter 4727 Ambitious
Princesses of the Tang Dynasty are very strange beings. Perhaps it is the remaining Hu bloodline in their bodies that makes them uneasy with things and unwilling to be lonely. Or perhaps it is the current open social atmosphere that broadens their horizons and cultivates their minds. They are always changing their ways. to show one's presence.
There are those who lead troops and fight to help their father and brother fight for the world; there are those who like monks and even encourage their husbands to rebel; there are those who have the power to covet the throne and want to be "the second best in the world"; there are those who even poison their own emperor father to death for the sake of power. Of course, there are also those who are gentle and virtuous and are praised all over the world...
In such a restless group, it is not a surprise that a Princess Jinyang appears who does not want to get married and only wants to ask questions.
After all, there are many more bizarre princesses, such as Princess Fangling who had an affair with her sister's son and got divorced...
In the princess's house, a banquet had ended. The music was still ringing in her ears, the fragrance of her clothes was still in her nose, cups and plates were scattered in the hall, and a Dutch monk lay on his back on the floor with his clothes open, revealing a clump of heart-protecting hair on his chest. The muscles of his formerly strong body had been softened by excessive drinking and sex. He closed his eyes slightly, and his blushing cheeks still retained the lingering power of the Five Stone Powder that had not completely dissipated...
Princess Fangling next to him was dressed in red gauze. Her well-maintained body in her thirties was full of charm and rounded with pearls. Under the gauze skirt, her skin was white and there were mountains and mountains. She was curled up slightly and panting.
It wasn't until his breathing subsided that he sat up. When he reached out, he lifted up the gauze to reveal a section of his snow-white arm. He picked up the teapot on the table with his slender hands, pointed the spout at his own mouth and took a big sip, then He let out a long breath, with a somewhat arrogant and lazy demeanor.
The couple actually played the piano and the harp in the lobby after a banquet, making the clouds and rain fall...
Princess Fangling glanced at the dog-like Dutch monk next to her, her beautiful eyes full of disdain, and joked: "Don't you have a real man in your Helan family? You can't even handle a little widow, and you can't feed him." It’s so useless that I didn’t say anything but was tricked.”
Dutch Sangha then turned over and sat up, picked up the teapot and wanted to drink water. He found that Princess Fangling had drank all the tea in the pot, and shouted at the maid to bring water. Hearing the dissatisfaction in Princess Fangling's tone, , rubbing his temples and giving up: "There are only exhausted cows and no plowed fields. In this regard, the humble minister is at a disadvantage."
Although he is in his twenties and is at the peak of his powers this year, Wu Shi Powder stimulates his potential and also excessively wears out his body. He has been drained by the medicine for many years. Faced with "people who are good at fighting" like Princess Fangling "It is really beyond our capabilities, and we have more than enough ambition but not enough power.
Once a man fails to show his strength and charge forward in this regard, his self-confidence will suffer a huge blow and he will not be able to stand straight...
Princess Fangling pinched the Dutch monk's arm with her sharp nails and said angrily: "Is this what I'm talking about? I'm talking about the little widow! Since she is the daughter-in-law of your Helan family, you should handle it well. Now, Helan Chushi is in charge of logistics at Youjinwu Guard. Come on, this is an important step in the world for us, but we were captured within a few days. The young widow must have colluded with Fang Er secretly, and deliberately framed her. But if we can catch her, Why is this so?”
The Dutch monk said angrily: "Money, money, money, you know money! Although Chu Shi and I are not close relatives, we are of the same lineage as Helan. We have both prospered and suffered losses. Now that he has been dismissed from his post, his future has been ruined." , once the charges are proven, there will be few children in the Helan family who can take advantage of him!”
The once-prominent "Helan Tribe" has long since declined, and has fallen silent with the collapse of the Guanlong Clan. If even the outstanding members of the clan fall one by one, the day when the "Helan Tribe" will make a comeback will be far away.
Princess Fangling raised her eyebrows and scolded: "What does your Helan family's life or death have to do with me? Look at the two bears. They look majestic and pretentious outside all day long, but when they come home they are like silver pewter. The tip of the gun is very useful! If I don’t expect you to make more money, what else can I expect from you?”
"Why did your Highness insult me?!"
Dutch Sangha only felt that his dignity as a man had been stepped on, humiliated and rubbed under his feet, and he became red-faced and furious: "Just wait, I will definitely make great achievements and make you look at me differently!"
"Huh?"
Princess Fangling narrowed her beautiful eyes, looked at the Dutch Sangha up and down, and asked doubtfully: "What do you mean by this? What tricks have you been mysteriously doing recently behind my back?"
The Dutch monk knew that he had made a mistake and did not dare to look at Princess Fangling. His eyes wandered and he hesitated: "This...don't worry about it. I just said it casually."
Princess Fangling felt that she had a good handle on this guy and knew his character very well. Looking at his expression and listening to his tone, she knew that there must be something she was hiding, so she asked: "You are now my consort, no matter what you do, Everything you do represents the face of this palace. If you dare to act recklessly outside, I will never forgive you!”
"Well... don't worry, it won't take long for you to become famous and make a lot of money!"
The Dutch monk hesitated and spoke vaguely, which made Princess Fangling increasingly suspicious.
Suddenly remembering the chaotic and turbulent atmosphere within the clan recently, his expression suddenly changed. He grabbed Dutch Sangha's arm, nervously leaned closer and asked in a low voice: "You must have gotten involved with those people, right?"
"A woman only needs to deal with housework, so why worry about big things? She has her own plans and struggles for her husband, and I will build a glorious and prominent family business for you."
Princess Fangling got the accurate information and became even more nervous. She said cautiously: "How sure are you? This is an unforgivable crime. Don't lose your life first without enjoying the glory!"
Seeing this, the Dutch Sangha puffed up his chest and said solemnly: "Those who have achieved great things in ancient times have gone through all kinds of hardships and persevered in determination. They only need to be 50% sure to give it a try. How can they be hesitant and uncertain about choices?"
Princess Fangling's thoughts changed rapidly. If such a big event was successful, her status would suddenly rise, and she would be even better than Emperor Gaozu when he was there. If it fails, the responsibility will be borne by the Dutch Sangha alone. She is the princess of the Tang Dynasty and has no involvement in it. With His Majesty's consistent benevolence, he will not do anything to him.
The worst case scenario is to be a widow for once and find a man to remarry in two years...
Caressing the man's chest with her slender hand, she said softly: "You men are always so heroic and arrogant, dreaming of trampling on the beautiful country under your feet to achieve unparalleled achievements, but we women are short-tempered, weak, and have little knowledge. If I can’t help, I can only do my best to serve you in bed, so that you don’t have to worry about anything.”
Seeing the always arrogant Princess curled up in his arms like a cat, with charming eyes as silky and as charming as water, the man's self-confidence grew to an unprecedented level.
She turned around and pressed the princess under her, intending to score twice, but Princess Faang Ling, who was shy and tactful and even refused to accept your offer, was thinking that if the big thing succeeds, then Fang Jun will be a prisoner. Not only can he swallow up the huge property of the Fang family, he may even get Fang Jun to play with him and fulfill his long-cherished wish.
Imagining the scene where Bangchui, who was disdainful of her, had to crawl under her body and try her best to please her, Princess Fangling snorted and trembled with excitement...

"Xiao Gong is a veteran of three dynasties and a meritorious figure in the empire. Now he has given up his leisure time in the woods and springs, enjoying his family time, and returned to the court to educate people for the country. I am very relieved! If all the ministers in the court regard the country as their home like Mr. Xiao, , Don’t hesitate to give, why worry about the Tang Dynasty not being able to dominate the world and conquer all the wastes? Moreover, I can always ask for help when I encounter problems, and I can really kill two birds with one stone.”
In the Wude Hall, Li Chengqian was very happy and excited when he saw Xiao Yu coming from Jiangnan alone and begging to teach in the academy.
It is naturally a good thing to have a great Confucian professor in the academy, but the reason why Li Chengqian was so excited was that Xiao Yu used this action to express to him the loyalty of the Lanling Xiao family. Without the Lanling Xiao family as the leader to connect the Jiangnan gentry, the rest of the Jiangnan gentry would naturally Generally speaking, loose sand can no longer resist the central government's orders.
The world is unified and the eight directions are unified, and the great deeds that my father failed to complete will be completed in my own hands. What kind of glory is this?
Xiao Yu's hair and beard are all white but he is energetic. He has a warm smile on his face and his demeanor is calm and stable, showing his scholarly style: "I am in the south of the Yangtze River, but I am worried about Your Majesty. I thought I would lead a leisurely life of entertaining my grandson because I have worries about him." But I was restless, and when I set foot on the land of Guanzhong again, I suddenly felt at ease. Enter Old Minister. After half a life of suffering and wandering, it was not until he joined Emperor Gaozu that his life suddenly became smooth. Now in his sixtieth year, he thought he would settle down and enjoy a quiet life for a few years, but he found that the things he cared about most were in Chang'an and not Jiangnan. I hope your Majesty will take care of you. Don’t make fun of this old minister.”
Li Chengqian has rarely been in such a happy mood recently. He couldn't help but think of his heroic spirit when his father said, "All the heroes in the world are in the world." Being able to completely conquer the world's talents is indeed an unparalleled pride and achievement.
"Although Mr. Xiao has become an official, his body and bones are still strong, and it is natural to teach and educate people. Especially his concern for the country, the king, and his willingness to contribute are enough for the people of the world to imitate and respect. With an old minister like Mr. Xiao to assist him, , I feel honored and satisfied.”
"Your Majesty is so complimentary that I feel ashamed that I cannot deserve it."
"If Duke Xiao can't do it, who else in the world can do it? Come, go to Shangshu Province to summon the Duke of Yue, and tell him that I will recommend a great scholar of the time to become the academy's lecturer, and ask him to come quickly. Meet the Master of Dewang.”
Although he, the emperor, is the nominal headmaster, dean, and chief minister of Zhenguan Academy, in fact he has no involvement in the affairs of the academy. Li Jing, Kong Yingda, and others have weak positions and ambiguous attitudes, and even more so when they are close to Fang Jun, the academy director. For his emperor, although Li Jingxuan was the emperor's confidant, he was too young and lacked the weight to be able to compare with Fang Jun for a while. Now that Xiao Yu, a veteran of the three dynasties, a prime minister and a great scholar of the time, entered the academy, he would definitely be able to compete with Fang Jun. In this way, the emperor could mediate, balance power, and demonstrate his power in the academy.
