Fang Jun was depressed, old man, why are you so happy?
We are not from the same place!
Fang Jun frowned and said: "You are a mirror of the ages, fair and selfless, and you have established your destiny with your criticism throughout your life! But I, my nephew, can't do this. We just want to be a sycophant who flatters the emperor. A high-ranking official must ride on a horse and be rich and glorious.
Wouldn’t it be nice to live a free life?”
Liu Xuanyi touched his forehead with his hand...
Damn it, I have lived for almost thirty years, and I have never seen anyone who can say that he is determined to be a sycophant so confidently!
Fang Lao Er, you are awesome!
The jailers on the side had shining eyes and expressions of admiration!
This is an example!
Money, beauty, promotion and fortune, what worldly person wouldn’t want to? But those sanctimonious children from aristocratic families call themselves Confucian students, talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality, but don’t they do all these things secretly?
It's really shameless to build an archway even though you are a cousin!
Look at Fang Jun. He just relies on his father's power, blatantly flatters his Majesty in front of His Majesty, and dares to speak out openly - I just want to be a sycophant!
Is this a true gentleman or a villain?
No matter what kind it is, in short, Fang Er is Fang Er. From ancient times to the present, it is unique throughout the Tang Dynasty!
But people do what they say, so what about the sycophants?
In the same way, high-ranking officials have to sit and horses have to ride. Don't you agree?
It’s okay not to accept it…
Wei Zheng almost choked to death and was so angry that his beard stood up!
He stared angrily and said: "Don't use these nonsense words to deceive me! Let me ask you, if you don't care about the people, why do you provoke the Yuan family and the nobles of the family? If you don't have kindness in your heart, why do you blame yourself for all the crimes?
Should you shoulder the responsibility and hastily end this case? If you don’t have mercy, why should you release all the people who are making noises and causing trouble?"
Fang Jun scratched his head, not knowing how to answer.
Are you an honest and upright Wei Guangzheng?
The answer is no. It was not the case in the previous life, and it is still not the case in this life...
He just wants to live up to the benefits of traveling through time, do some things, change some things in this prosperous and beautiful era, and lay a stronger foundation for this troubled, compassionate and loving nation.
Perhaps one day the Tang Dynasty will still perish, the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms will still fight in chaos, and the Song Dynasty will still rise, but Fang Jun hopes that he can broaden the horizons of this nation and speed up the pace of more advanced social reforms.
As for loyal ministers or sycophants...
He never gave it much thought.
Since you can get appreciation, support, and reuse by coaxing His Majesty Li Er, then why bother pretending to be honest and upright, making your own road twists and turns?
He always firmly believes that no matter whether the cat is black or white, the one that catches mice is a good cat...
But what Wei Zheng said hit Fang Jun's heart exactly.
You may be corrupt, you may be bribed, you may be flattering and slanderous, but your love and compassion for the people in the world remain the same. These are a group of pitiful people, but also a group of great people. They survive in humble circumstances.
He endured all the humiliation and hardships, but he was always able to work hard to drive out the Tartars after the empire overthrew the Shenzhou Luchen, and write a new chapter with his life and blood!
Who can not love such people?
After a moment of silence, Fang Jun did not deliberately retaliate against Wei Zheng. He sighed softly: "A benevolent person loves others, which is the best principle in the world. The people are too miserable. They have to fight with the sky, the earth, the wind, frost, rain and snow, and the mountains and rivers. They
We keep fighting just to live a better life! However, there are always some aristocratic families who claim to be high above the clouds and do not treat people as human beings, leaving these ordinary people to fight with them in the cracks of survival.
! I can’t stand it, so I want to fight on behalf of these common people with those aristocratic families to see whether they are born noble or the common people are as good as water!"
When I finished speaking, my tone was sonorous and full of unparalleled confidence!
History has proven that anyone who stands on the opposite side of the people will be ruthlessly swept into the garbage dump of history by the people!
This is true for emperors and dynasties, and so is it for aristocratic families!
Wei Zheng nodded approvingly and smiled happily: "I really did not misjudge the person, so I dragged my body to the prison of Dali Temple today to protect you from the wind and rain."
Fang Jun was stunned, and his heart suddenly felt warm.
No wonder Wei Zheng came here. He must have foreseen that the powerful counterattack from the family members was coming, so he came to support him.
Even though Wei Zheng is old and about to die, the shadow of a famous tree is still there. As long as Wei Zheng is still breathing, he will still be in the position of giving honest advice, and he will still be the fearless mirror of humanity through the ages!
Fang Jun had always believed that Wei Zheng used this image and method to gain his political status, but now he suddenly realized his own narrow-mindedness.
This is a great man who is truly willing to sacrifice his life for the country and the people without fear of life or death!
Wei Zheng's eyes flashed, he looked at Fang Jun and said with a smile: "Why, the little bastard was moved by my heart to protect each other with fists? If so, how about writing a poem as an elegiac couplet for me in the near future?"
Everyone looked at Fang Jun.
There is no doubt about Fang Jun's poetic talent, and it is no problem to write a pen and write it down. But who is Wei Zheng? An outspoken minister in the Zhenguan Dynasty, an unparalleled staunch and unyielding man throughout the ages! What kind of poem does Fang Jun want to write? In order to be worthy of Wei Zheng’s fame, status and historical achievements?
Fang Jun looked at Wei Zheng with a smile and said, "Do you really want to write it?"
When he asked this question, everyone changed their colors!
Who doesn't know that Fang Jun is most famous not for writing poems to praise virtues, but for composing poems to curse people? I think that the famous actress in Pingkangfang was teased to death by Fang Jun's poems, and His Highness the King of Wei was even more so during his career. Jun Pu has written an indelible stain...
Listening to Fang Jun's tone... is it possible that he wants to write a poem to mock Wei Zheng now?
The most nervous person was naturally Wei Shuyu, who hurriedly shouted: "How presumptuous! My father just said a polite word, but you still take it seriously? My father is highly respected by the world, and he is fair, straightforward and incorruptible. How can a wanton dandy like you do this?" Making unreasonable comments? You simply don’t know how high the sky is!”
Fang Jun sneered: "I don't want to write a certain book. Since you insult me like this, you have to write it!"
Wei Shuyu was frightened and stared: "No need!"
This stick is so full of evil, who knows if he will write a poem that is extremely satirical and sarcastic? If there are one or two lines in it that are good enough to be passed down from generation to generation, it will immediately become the dark history of Wei Zheng's honest life... …
Wei Zheng smiled and patted his son's hand, looked at Fang Jun with a smile and said: "Even though it is written, I have looked up to you all my life, why should I worry about being criticized and slandered?"
This is magnanimity!
Be selfless in your heart, and naturally the world will be broad and aboveboard!
Fang Jun put his hands on his hands and laughed. He stood up and came to the table. He dipped his pen in ink and concentrated for a long time, thinking about which poem to write for Wei Zheng?
After thinking about it, I gave up the rice paper on the table, picked up the pen in one hand and the inkstone in the other, and turned to face the snow-white wall behind me.
The pen moves like a dragon and a snake, and the ink is dripping.
"Some people are alive
He is dead;
some people died
He is still alive..."
"some people
Riding on the heads of the people: 'Oh, how great I am!'
some people
Stooping down to be a cow and horse for the people..."
"some people
Carve your name into stone and think of it as "immortal";
some people
I would rather be a weed and wait for the fire underground..."
"some people
While he lives, others cannot live;
some people
He lives to make a better life for the majority of people..."
"He is a person who cannot live while others live,
His end can be seen;
He lives for the majority of people to live a better life,
The people held him up very high, very high..."
"In the fifteenth year of Zhenguan, a certain person and Zheng Guogong had a drink in prison. They had some thoughts and wrote a poem to encourage each other..."
After writing the last word, Fang Jun felt content in his heart. He put the pen on the ground, turned around and lifted the jug high, tilting it. The clear wine poured out like a white stream. He raised his head and opened his mouth, drinking from the jug of wine. And finished.
"happy!"
Fang Jun applauded himself!
People have to pursue something, whether it is running the world and benefiting the country, or eating and waiting to die...
People must have a goal, whether it is to benefit the world, or to harm the country and the people...
Wei Zheng's life can be regarded as dedicated to the world, fair, honest and caring for the people as a son. Although he is not dead, he can still conclude his life.
What about yourself?
Or as the writing on the wall says…
"The one who carved his name into stone
Names rot earlier than corpses;
Wherever the spring breeze blows
There are green weeds everywhere..."
How can a few tombstones and a few history books describe all the merits and demerits?
The common people have a steelyard in their hearts. They weigh the world and have their own weight.
Those great evildoers can confuse people for a while, how can they confuse them for a hundred generations?
Those noble families who ride on the heads of the common people and want to be immortal will sooner or later die sooner than their corpses; those honest officials who serve the people wholeheartedly, Bai Xin will always pay tribute to them in his heart...
Suddenly, a loud shout sounded in the prison!
"Come here! Drag this arrogant, mean-mouthed bastard out and chop him down!"
