Fang Jun quickly said: "It will save you the trouble of lowering your official position. Thank you so much for your teaching."
Li Daozong waved his hand with a smile: "What kind of teaching is not teaching? But you are not very particular. I have invited you to my house for banquets several times. Why are you procrastinating and delaying it with excuses and refusing to reward me?"
Li Hui's jaw almost dropped in shock...
Is this Li Daozong, the king of Hejian County?
Who in the entire court doesn't know that Li Daozong is cold-faced and cold-hearted, and treats everyone with indifference and indifference?
But look at it now, what kind of spring breeze is it for Fang Jun?
Just like my own son-in-law...
Fang Jun said helplessly: "Jingzhao Yin has complicated affairs, and the construction period of the temporary market by Kunming Lake is strict. How can I dare to neglect the slightest bit? Unless I refuse to go to the county prince's house for the banquet, I really don't know how to do it!"
Li Daozong nodded to express his understanding and said happily: "Well, after I have been busy for a while, I can no longer excuse myself! My daughter, I really want to toast Erlang with a glass of wine and express my deepest gratitude."
Naturally, this refers to the Tubo marriage incident.
Xiao Yu interjected: "Speaking of which, I remembered something. The old wife at home wanted to like Erlang's character. Some time ago, people from the Jiangnan tribe came to visit and saw a niece and granddaughter from the tribe who was very well-behaved and handsome. She thought of her as a matchmaker.
Dafa, if you want to arrange a marriage for Erlang, I'm afraid you will ask someone to make peace with your mother in the next few days."
Fang Junda dared to have a headache and said with a bitter smile: "I'm afraid that I will disappoint the Duke's wife. His Highness Gao Yang has not given birth for a long time, so how dare I take a concubine?"
Li Daozong laughed loudly and said: "I don't agree with Erlang's words. Among the seven rules, 'jealousy will cause chaos in the family'. How can a legitimate wife stop the husband from taking concubines? Gao Yang is a golden branch and a jade leaf, so she will definitely not
With no womanly virtue, Erlang is using Gao Yang as a shield like this. Could it be that he is despising my royal tutor?"
"Qi Qu", also known as "Qi Chu" and "Qi Abandonment", comes from the "Da Dai Li Ji" of the Han Dynasty: Disobedience to parents is a sign of treason; childlessness is a sign of peerlessness; fornication is a sign of incest.
It means family; jealousy means disordering the family; having bad diseases means they cannot be together; talking too much means alienating relatives; stealing means it is the opposite.
The husband can divorce his wife if he violates the rule of "seven departures". In other words, this is the rule for wives nowadays. It is absolutely not allowed to make mistakes, even for princesses!
What Li Daozong said was completely joking.
Fang Jun sweated profusely and begged for mercy: "Please spare your life, the prince. If these words are spread back home, I'm afraid your highness will cry and tear off the official's skin."
Li Daozong burst out laughing, and even Xiao Yu couldn't help but smile and said with a smile: "Don't disturb me, Erlang. My grandniece Zhong Lingmingxiu is a rare beauty, and she will definitely not wrong Erlang. As for His Highness Gao Yang,
Since my old wife and Ling Ci are in charge, His Highness Gaoyang's visit will not stop Erlang from taking concubines."
Fang Jun was helpless: "Then we can only leave it to fate..."
But he was secretly wary, what kind of medicine could this old fox sell in his gourd? He had made a lot of trouble for the Xiao family in Jiangnan, and the Shipping Company had cut off a large part of the Xiao family's profits, but now this old fox was busy trying to catch up.
Make your grandniece your concubine?
There is definitely a conspiracy...
Li Daozong and Xiao Yu laughed.
Li Hui on the side was completely depressed...
Why do I seem to be an outsider?
Judging from Li Daozong and Xiao Yu's attitude towards Fang Jun, it is clear that they regard Fang Jun as a being on the same level as them, and have never shown any contempt because of their age or seniority.
And... Xiao Yu actually promised his grandniece to Fang Jun as his concubine?
Jiangnan women are delicate and beautiful, and they come from a famous family, so they must be the gifts that men long for in their houses. This boy is also very lucky, which is really enviable and jealous...
Li Hui felt quite frustrated. He wanted to show off his connections in front of Fang Jun, but he was turned against him, which made him feel really embarrassed.
But this is not over yet...
Everyone in the hall was whispering, and suddenly there was a clutter of footsteps outside the hall, and a group of people walked into the hall.
The leader is wearing a sapphire blue brocade robe, with a strong body and the strides of a dragon and a tiger. It is His Majesty Li Er...
"Hula"
Everyone in the hall stood up, bowed and said: "I have seen your Majesty..."
His Majesty Li Er hummed, waved his hands, and said calmly: "It's a funeral for the Dou family, so you don't have to be formal, just sit quietly."
"Here." Everyone responded and waited quietly for His Majesty Li Er to take the throne, and then they all took their seats.
His Majesty Li Er has never paid much attention to the etiquette of monarchs and ministers. In his opinion, they are all his own humerus. Most of his ministers have followed him to fight all the way. They all have fateful friendships and use these vain etiquettes.
On the contrary, it chills people's hearts and is really not of great use.
So when the mood strikes, he can drink and have fun with Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong and others, and dance in public without any trace of imperial dignity...
Everyone knows the temperament of His Majesty Li Er, and besides, this is not the Tai Chi Palace, so it is much more casual. But since he is the emperor after all, everyone is inevitably a little more reserved in their speech.
After all, Xiao Yu had a different relationship with His Majesty Li Er, so he stood up, sat down next to His Majesty Li Er, and exchanged a few words in a low voice.
His Majesty Li Er responded solemnly, but he was a little absent-minded. He glanced around and saw Fang Jun, who had just sat down next to Li Daozong, and waved...
There was some silence in the hall, and then in order to cover up, it returned to normal.
Everyone knows that Fang Jun is highly regarded and favored by His Majesty Li Er, but being summoned in public like this is still very enviable.
Fang Jun could only smile apologetically at Li Daozong, stood up and walked towards His Majesty Li Er.
Li Hui behind him has complicated eyes...
If the attitudes of Li Daozong and Xiao Yu just made him feel envious, jealous, and resentful, then His Majesty Li Er's casual waving at this moment simply caused tons of harm to him.
He finally realized that the difference between himself and Fang Jun had nothing to do with status or age. Instead, he was a arrogant and arrogant man who relied on his father's reputation and royal status, while the other had long since reborn as a playboy and reached the top of the empire in one fell swoop.
That class of...
Among the younger generation, not only Li Hui is inferior to Fang Jun, but almost all the princes and young masters have fallen behind Fang Jun.
Fang Jun deserves to be called the number one among the younger generation...
"Your father has not recovered yet?" When His Majesty Li Er saw Fang Jun coming to express his condolences, he knew that Fang Xuanling must be unwell. After decades of harmony between the emperor and his ministers, his favorites were Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and his eldest grandson.
Wuji three people.
Now Du Ruhui has passed away prematurely, and Changsun Wuji has drifted away from him. Only Fang Xuanling is still loyal to his side, working hard for the Tang Empire and serving his Majesty Li Er.
Worrying endlessly.
This is truly heartfelt concern...
Fang Jun quickly bowed and replied: "Your Majesty, my father is still in good health. The imperial doctor has already examined and treated him, and said he will be fine in a few days. It's just that Jia Ci is worried, lest the rainy weather, coldness and humidity will aggravate the condition, so I ordered him to
We all come to express our condolences."
His Majesty Li Er: "Haha..."
After all, isn’t it just that you are afraid of your wife?
However, if someone else was told this by his son, he would become the laughing stock of the world. But when it came out of Fang Jun's mouth, no one would think it was a joke, but it would be a matter of course.
Who in the world doesn’t know that Fang Xuanling is afraid of his wife?
No matter how surprising things are, once you get used to them, they won't be surprising anymore...
His Majesty Li Er nodded: "Looking back, I will ask the servant of Shang Yao Bureau to prepare some medicinal materials that will nourish the body and send them to the house. You can sue my father and let him have a good life. I can't live without him, and the Tang Dynasty can't live without him!
He has to serve me as prime minister and assistant for another twenty years."
The hall fell silent again...
However, everyone just sighed at this wonderful story about the relationship between the king and his ministers. As for the jealousy, there was no feeling of jealousy.
Who is Fang Xuanling?
At that time, the army took refuge with His Majesty Li Er, and then he took charge of power in the Qin Palace. Over the decades, not only did his holy family never weaken, but he became more and more valued as he grew older. Not to mention Fang Xuanling's ability is unparalleled in the world.
Who can compare with this friendship with His Majesty Li Er?
Perhaps there is only one eldest grandson Wuji.
It's just a pity that Changsun Wuji has drifted away from His Majesty for the sake of his family's future...
If we talk about "the first person in the court" now, Fang Xuanling deserves the title!
"Here." Fang Jun bowed respectfully and saluted.
This is a favor from the emperor, and we must express our gratitude meticulously. No amount of courtesy is too much.
His Majesty Li Er asked: "When I came in just now, I saw you and Song Guogong chatting happily. I wonder what they were talking about?"
Fang Jun made the Jiangnan nobles miserable in Jiangnan, and when he returned to Guanzhong, he defeated the Guanlong Group to the point where they could not come to Taiwan. However, he was able to have a pleasant conversation with Xiao Yu, the leader of the Jiangnan nobles, which had to surprise His Majesty Li Er.
Shouldn't it be that Xiao Yu will get angry and strangle Fang Jun to death when he sees him?
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster!
