Chapter 4885 Fang Jun is afraid of hen
However, Li Ji also understood the principle that "soldiers are individuals first." People have their own positions and interests that they need to fight for. This also makes soldiers unable to remain pure, let alone firm in their proper positions.
So when he sensed that Chang'an City was about to be turbulent, he called Liang Jianfang over and gave him earnest instructions.
He didn't want his remaining subordinates to make mistakes and fall into the abyss of no return.
However, everyone has his own ambitions. If anyone refuses to listen to dissuasion and insists on going his own way, then you can't blame him...
The two of them were drinking tea, with heavy snow falling outside the window. Liang Jianfang poured wine for Li Ji and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty has given you such a request, but the situation in Chang'an is in danger of collapsing?"
The words are still cautious and obscure. The so-called "collapse" naturally refers to someone who conspires to cause rebellion or even launch a mutiny...
Li Ji shook his head and took a sip from his wine glass: "You don't need to pay attention to that, just perform your duties."
Although there were some things that he complained about in his heart, he could not express them with his mouth.
The troops loyal to His Majesty inside and outside Chang'an and in Guanzhong are capable of annihilating the rebels with thunderous force before they rise. However, His Majesty has repeatedly suppressed and failed to provoke them. It is not difficult to guess what he is thinking.
However, in his opinion, these are unnecessary, so what if the imperial power is restricted? The most important thing is to be able to sit firmly on the throne. The harm of decentralization of power among ministers is far less than that of clan troubles. All the rebellions in the past and present are combined into one place. It is rare for powerful ministers to usurp the throne, and more of them are clan conspiracy. inverse.
In short, it is difficult for a minister to steal the throne, but it is much easier for a clan to rebel. It is simply stupid to take the risk of being rebelled by the clan to gain imperial power.
But he has always been unwilling to get involved in these matters. As long as Li Chengqian is still on the throne, or to say the least, as long as the throne is passed down to His Majesty and the Crown Prince, the rest does not matter. His Majesty is willing to let him do it.
In extreme circumstances, even if something goes wrong with His Majesty, as long as the Crown Prince is here, the empire will not be in chaos...
Liang Jianfang also understood what Li Ji meant, nodded and made a promise: "The general will stick to his duties and will never have any second thoughts."
After talking about the business, Li Ji asked: "How strong is the control of the army? Can it enforce orders and prohibitions?"
The left-leading military guards had been under the command of Li Keshi before. Liang Jianfang might not be able to use his arms and fingers when he suddenly takes charge. Once his generals disobey military orders and make mistakes at critical moments, it will not only be a joke, but also fatal. .
"Don't worry, Commander. When Danyang County Duke resigned, he made it very clear to everyone, and there was nothing wrong. In these days, the reorganization of the army and the distribution of military affairs were also quite smooth. The general commanded and prohibited without any shirk. Now he is in full control. .”
From ancient times to the present, the army "only obeys the commander's orders." It is not so much the country's army as the commander's army. The commander is loyal to the country and loyal to the king, so the army is also loyal. On the contrary, the whole army often follows the commander's orders. Whether he is loyal or treacherous, whether he is the pillar of the country or brings disaster to the world, it all depends on the commander's thoughts.
However, it is not easy for a coach to fully control an army. After all, the composition of an army is often extremely complex, and the interests pursued by everyone are not necessarily consistent with the coach. Under such circumstances, if the army is to be used like an arm, , the top and bottom are the same, which is extremely difficult.
Especially when Liang Jianfang takes over an army halfway, it may seem that the lieutenant general is obedient to his orders, but at the critical moment it is unknown whether he will obey the commander's orders...
"Don't be careless. Although Li Ke's talents are not as good as those of Duke Wei, he is full of strategies and has achieved outstanding results. He may not have left confidants in the army. Although he will not instigate some generals at critical moments, he must be on guard."
"Here! The general will definitely be more careful and screen carefully, and there will never be any hidden dangers."
If the army suddenly mutinied when he was needed to pull out the army to protect the palace, then it would not only be a matter of dereliction of duty on his part, but the whole family would lose their heads if he is held accountable...
*****
The sudden increase in the number of guards and chamberlains in Taiji Palace made the atmosphere tense. Everyone knew that the situation was extremely unusual, and people were inevitably panicked.
In Shujing Hall, Queen Su came to visit Princess Changle and Lu'er today. Princess Jinyang was also with her. The Queen held Lu'er in her arms and kissed Lu'er's white and tender cheeks affectionately. Seeing the deer dancing and quacking happily made me fall in love with him even more. Princess Changle warned: "You should not go out in the palace during these days, especially the Taoist temple on the Zhongnan Mountain. After all, the safety of the deep mountains and wild forests cannot be guaranteed. No matter how many guards there are, they will inevitably be negligent. If anything happens, you cry." It’s too late.”
The crimson palace skirt is cut to fit and outlines a round waist. The hair is like clouds and the head is full of pearls. The wealth is dignified and elegant. When it comes to color, Queen Su is definitely not inferior to Changle and Jinyang.
Princess Changle was a little nervous when she heard this, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly: "Is there something going on in the clan?"
Many people in the clan were restless and dissatisfied, and Li Chengqian had been on the throne for a day or two. Although the continuous mutinies failed to shake Li Chengqian's throne, it was obvious that those people had not given up, and their overt and covert ambitions were barely concealed.
Empress Su looked sad and sighed: "Who says it's not true? Your Majesty doesn't want to bear the reputation of massacring the clan. He just waits for the other party to take action first and then counterattack. When the time comes, the evidence is conclusive and irrefutable, but as the saying goes, a hundred There is still a gap in the secret. What if a thief finds an opportunity? ”
Princess Changle pursed her lips and remained silent.
Obviously, the Queen must have advised her many times on this matter, but it seems to have had no effect. As His Majesty's throne becomes more and more stable, his temper becomes more and more conceited. In the past, he could still listen to the advice of the Queen and Fang Jun, but now he does not. More and more I am going my own way.
I don’t know why, but His Majesty, who was usually kind and kind, suddenly became extreme and willful, making those close to him more and more strange...
Princess Jinyang on the side said softly: "So, wouldn't it be true that Taiji Palace is the most dangerous place? Sister Changle, why not send Luer to Liang Guogong's Mansion? No matter how chaotic Chang'an City is, Liang Guogong's Mansion must be the safest place.”
She has an extremely strong admiration for Fang Jun and believes that Fang Jun can cope with any situation. If even Liang Guogong's palace is not safe, there will be no so-called "security" inside and outside Chang'an...
"This..."
Princess Changle hesitated.
It stands to reason that it is indeed the safest way to send the child to Duke Liang's Mansion away from the palace, a place of right and wrong. But the problem is that that stinky girl Gao Yang has not said once or twice that she will take Lu'er back to Duke Liang's Mansion to be raised by the couple. , if that happens, the child will return to the Fang family legitimately, and it will be difficult for him to meet him in the future.
On the one hand, it is the safety of the child, and on the other hand, the relationship between mother and child may be severed. It is really difficult to choose...
Queen Su saw Princess Changle's uneasiness and asked in a low voice: "Are you afraid that it will be easy to send the child to Liang Guogong's mansion, but it will be difficult to take the child out again?"
Princess Changle nodded, blinked her beautiful eyes, and looked at the queen for help.
The queen put the child in the swaddling clothes and put her hand on her forehead, looking very speechless: "Although you are a daughter of a family, even Emperor Taizong paid great attention to you when he was here. He often listened to your opinions and thought that you were decisive in killing. You are not inferior to a man, but now you are acting like a little daughter-in-law?”
Princess Changle felt a little aggrieved. Who asked me to give birth to this child by the man who stole my sister?
In front of Gao Yang, I feel a little short and lack of confidence...
Princess Jinyang gave an idea at the side: "Sister, you can explain this matter to your brother-in-law clearly. You just want to send Lu'er to your house for safety. When the situation is stable in the future, you must take him out. Brother-in-law will answer ”
Princess Changle asked curiously: "Why do you think your brother-in-law has the final say in this matter?"
Princess Jinyang was a little puzzled and asked: "Why does my brother-in-law's words not count?"
In her mind, Fang Jun is an indomitable hero, and there is nothing he can't do. Although Sister Gao Yang is domineering and domineering, even ordering someone's arm to be cut off, she has never acted arrogantly in front of her brother-in-law. As long as her brother-in-law agrees to this matter, how can Sister Gao Yang regret it?
Princess Changle sneered: "Ha."
It is difficult for a man to be strong when he feels guilty. If life and death are at stake, Fang Jun will naturally stand firm in front of Gao Yang, but the problem is that it is far from the critical moment. Once Gao Yang shows off his face and loses his temper, Fang Jun may not be able to hold on.
What's more, she knows Fang Jun very well. That bitch has always wanted to take the child back, and he can take advantage of Gao Yang's arrogance to do so...
In contrast, the queen didn't know much about Fang Jun. After hearing the conversation between the two sisters, she was quite surprised and said: "Erlang is actually henpecked? This is really hard to see! But it's not surprising. Their roommate The tradition of the family is like this.”
Mrs. Fang Lu's "feat" back then is still circulated among the people in the city. She is talked about by the people of Chang'an and is used as a source of conversation after dinner. They would rather drink a glass of "poisonous wine" than allow Fang Xuanling to take a concubine. What happened is legendary.
It is not news that Fang Yizhi's house has always been headed by his wife Du.
When it comes to Fang Jun, it seems natural to pass on the "excellent family tradition"...
But when she thought about Fang Jun's majestic appearance outside, beating him whenever he wanted, but being submissive and henpecked at home, the queen looked strange.
It’s really incredible...
Princess Jinyang defended Fang Jun: "How can we say it's henpecking? That's respect! My brother-in-law has always believed that men and women are equal, and he never even cared about the bad habit of 'men take charge of the outside and women take charge of the house.' Mrs. Wu is able to take charge of the Fang family's industry. clear evidence , and now he is in charge of the "Eastern Datang Company" on behalf of his brother-in-law. He has a broad mind that is rare in the world. He is a real man. He is much better than those men who are submissive outside and show off to their wives and concubines at home, right? "
The Queen and Princess Changle looked at each other, shook their heads at the same time, and sighed in unison. This girl from Jinyang has a deep affection for Fang Jun and never forgets to protect him. It is really nerve-wracking...
