Fang Jun was indeed complaining, but who told Dou Jing that he was at fault first? Forgetting national affairs for personal gain is a serious crime.
Wei Zheng next to me quits...
The old man stared at his eyes and scolded: "You are slandering and sowing discord. Fang Jun, you act recklessly as a minister. You are simply the biggest traitor in the Tang Dynasty! How could Dou Jing offend you? You actually go forward to slander His Majesty like this? People dying?"
Fang Jun was also angry, why are you everywhere?
"That Dou Jing saw personal gain and forgot about state affairs. He was full of intrigues and dirty thoughts. He was a minister in vain! For the compilation of "Nongshu", the Jingzhao Mansion and the Prince of Hejian County were responsible for the money expenditure, but Dou Jing was slow to do so. He was willing to summon all the peasant officials from all over the country to the capital, so that he was delayed for a year in vain. I would like to ask, how much financial benefits did Zheng Guogong receive from Dou Jing, so that he could confuse right and wrong and open his eyes?"
Fang Jun was not polite and opened his mouth to retort.
I hate officials like Dou Jing who hide their little thoughts everywhere and use state affairs as a means to seek personal gain. Such people are more resentful than incompetent officials and cause greater destructive power. Fang Jun would rather have their corpses eat nothing... …
Of course, Li Xiaogong also wanted to use "Nongshu" to enhance his reputation, but his nature was completely opposite to that of Dou Jing. One was willing to delay state affairs for his own benefit, while the other was promoting state affairs for his own benefit. Naturally, they were completely different.
Wei Zheng is going crazy!
He has been known for his toughness and uprightness throughout his life. Even when facing the emperor, he dared to rebuke him. His confidence was that he was a clean-minded person and a decent man! But what did Fang Jun say now? Did he accept Dou Jing's financial benefits? He actually accused himself to his face. bribery?
Mother!
It is tolerable, but what is intolerable!
The old man was completely blown away!
If it was just a dispute over political ideas before, then Fang Jun's words have now risen to the level of personal attacks. Wei Zheng, who regards integrity as his life creed, will never allow others to insult him, regardless of whether it is because of his sincerity or his political pursuits. Official voice!
The old man didn't look like a decrepit old man. He rushed to Fang Jun in a single step, cursed angrily with his halberd finger, and sprayed foam in Fang Jun's face: "Ignorant boy, how dare you insult me like this? I have been as honest as water in my life, and I have never accepted anything from others. benefit?"
Fang Jun touched his nose and said, "My official once gave you a pair of coffin boards..."
Coffin board...
Wei Zheng almost fell down in anger and said angrily: "Fart! What do you mean by accepting bribes? I did accept your coffin board, but if it is to protect you, then it can be regarded as accepting bribes. Since you have never The benefit received here is naturally just an ordinary gift! Are you stupid in reading? You don’t even know the "Zhenguan Law"? "
Fang Jun blinked: "Xiaoguan gave you a pair of precious rosewood longevity materials. You are not willing to say a few nice words for Xiaguan, but now you are so protective of Dou Jing. I would like to ask you... How valuable must it be to accept Dou Jing's gift?"
"I, I, I... I'm going to fuck you!" Wei Zheng was so angry that his face turned red: "Shuzi! How dare you insult my reputation? I will fight you to the death today!"
Wei Zheng finally realized that Fang Jun was so angry that he would not pay for his life...
Who the hell cares about a pair of coffin boards? It’s obviously just to disgust yourself and cause trouble for yourself!
When the officials on both sides saw Wei Zheng rushing towards Fang Jun with his teeth and claws bared, they were frightened. They quickly stepped forward to stop Wei Zheng and tried to persuade him.
"Why is Duke Zheng so angry?"
"Quickly calm down, don't do anything, don't do anything..."
The peasant servants of the Fang family looked on with stars in their eyes. Their Erlang was indeed a fierce man!
Who is Wei Zheng?
Even the emperor dared to fight against him. Not only did he dare to fight against him, but he was also able to fight against him honestly!
Which dandy in the whole Guanzhong is not like a mouse seeing a cat, fearing to avoid him? They are afraid of being impeached by Wei Zheng with a memorial, and having their butts spanked into eight pieces by their elders when they return home...
But look at our Erlang, he speaks righteously and without fear!
Fierce, indeed ferocious!
His Majesty Li Er was enjoying watching a play, but Fang Jun retorted Wei Zheng to the point of irritation. He felt so relieved!
Wei Zheng has always been giving righteous and stern remonstrances, accusing the emperor of doing this and that, and that and that is not right. I have had enough of this old man's anger! Never have I seen Wei Zheng being silenced like this. Refute, want to scratch someone?
Although I know that Fang Jun is just a mess, the mood is so beautiful!
But when Wei Zheng really wanted to tickle someone, he couldn't interfere verbally...
After all, you can't let the two ministers fight in front of you, right?
His Majesty Li Er coughed twice and said coldly: "Shut up, everyone!"
Naturally, Wei Zheng had to listen to what the emperor said. Even if Wei Zheng was so angry that his mouth was filled with smoke, he had to stop, but he was not angry in his heart!
"Your Majesty clearly knows that Fang Jun is fabricating rumors and slanders out of nothing. I have been an honest official and an upright person all my life. How have I ever accepted a penny from others? Now that I am getting old, I am about to be slandered. Please make the decision for me. !”
Wei Zheng's face was filled with anger and his face was red.
His Majesty Li Er hummed, glanced at Fang Jun indifferently, and said: "Wei Qing is upright and upright. He is a role model for courtiers and an unprecedented critic of officials throughout the ages! How can you damage Wei Qing's reputation like this? I miss you so much. You are so young and ignorant, so I won’t care too much about you, and apologize quickly, otherwise I will never forgive you!"
Fang Jun shrugged his shoulders with a sincere attitude. He bowed deeply to Wei Zheng and said in a sincere tone: "Gong Zheng, calm down. I am young and don't know the depth. What I said was not my true intention. It was just a moment of confusion. I hope Zheng Guogong will understand. You have a broad mind. The prime minister's belly can hold a boat, and the adults don't remember the faults of the villains, so don't be like the juniors..."
Wei Zheng was so angry that he laughed instead.
Why are you so dignified? You are a high-ranking official of the second rank, and now you are telling me that you are young and ignorant?
You have the nerve to say it!
But Fang Jun is shameless, he really has no choice...
It's just a private conversation. Although Fang Jun's words are not pleasant to listen to, he just rushed here in a hurry. Now his attitude is sincere and his posture is completely low. What else can he do? Even if he doesn't give in, the emperor won't do it. …
"Hmph! How shameless and shameless!"
Wei Zheng shouted angrily, cupped his hands in front of the emperor as a courtesy, and walked away.
Seeing the hesitant expression on His Majesty Li Er's face, Fang Jun curled his lips and said in a low voice: "This old man is extremely rude. Why don't Your Majesty punish him for the crime of deceiving the emperor?"
The farmer's eyelids twitched.
How insidious, Fang Erlang's ability to put eye drops is really good. It seems that after returning home, he must report it to Dou Siqing. He must not mess with Fang Erlang. Wei Zheng is a man of iron and is naturally not afraid. Fang Jun's small tricks, but his own Dou Siqing...
His Majesty Li Er glared at Fang Jun and scolded: "Shut up! I was in a good mood, but it was ruined by your stick. Wei Qing is so proud and has a breeze, how can he tolerate you slandering him like this? He will be fined for one year. , go back and reflect on my good life, and if there is a next time, I will never forgive you lightly!"
Wei Zheng is the model he has set up by himself to set off his false words and accept advice. How can it be easily destroyed by Fang Jun's two sentences? What's more, he can also see that Fang Jun is just talking, and it is probably Wei Zheng. Fang Jun was unhappy with his attitude of defending Dou Jing, so he filled the old man's shoes...
"Here! I realize my mistake, so I will personally go to Duke Zheng's house to apologize." Fang Jun lowered his eyebrows, and felt no psychological burden at all for being fined one year's salary.
Just don't hit the board...
His Majesty Li Er stood with his hands behind his back in the drizzle, looking at the fertile fields on the hillside, and asked: "Is there any reply from Feng Zhidai?"
Lingnan has always been the place that His Majesty Li Er pays the most attention to.
Since the Sui Dynasty, Lingnan has been separated from the Central Government due to its unique geographical environment. Even Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was not able to truly bring it under the control of the Central Government. However, the Feng family in Lingnan was aware of current affairs and took the initiative to rely on the Central Government. Therefore, Lingnan was included in the territory.
In fact, it is an independent kingdom, with all military and political power in the hands of the Feng family...
Fang Jun's invitation to Feng Zhidai was indeed a clever move.
A simple temptation can leave Feng with no escape. Whether he sincerely surrenders to the Tang Dynasty or is pretending to be a coward and waits for action, he must come up with an attitude.
By joining the "Eastern Datang Company" to open up the geographical path of Lingnan, the Feng family truly surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. His Majesty Li Er was naturally not stingy with rewards, even if it was a title of separation from the country, it didn't matter.
On the contrary, Feng must have had different ambitions, intending to take advantage of Lingnan's isolated environment to cede territory and become king, or even establish himself as emperor...
No matter which path Feng will choose, the empire can arrange it calmly, so as not to be in a hurry when the matter comes, causing the matter to deteriorate irreparably and pay a heavy price.
From this we can also see Fang Jun's ability. How could His Majesty Li Er be willing to punish him seriously?
