Fang Jun pretended to be displeased: "Why should we care so much between you and me? I am helping you only to support those brothers. Otherwise, wouldn't it be better to transfer them to the Youtun Guards?"
Xue Wanche was suddenly embarrassed, his face turned red and he said, "It's my brother's fault!"
Xue Wanche has a rough personality, and to put it bluntly, he is a bit silly, but because of this, his actions are never fancy and often go straight to his heart. At least he understands the sophistication of people and is not a hero on the battlefield or an idiot in officialdom. He knows that he does not
He is good at business management but has extremely limited means of dealing with human relations, so he only talks about interests most of the time.
I won't play tricks with you, and I won't disdain any socializing or socializing with you. Let's just talk about interests.
If interests can sway you, naturally each will get what he wants. If interests can't sway you, let's part ways.
Everyone has their own way of dealing with others. Some ways that may seem superficial and vulgar to you actually work well sometimes...
Xue Wanche certainly did not regard Fang Jun as an object of exchange of interests.
On the contrary, he regarded Fang Jun as a true friend since Fang Jun handed him the slave business of making daily profits and making him a "husband" in front of Princess Danyang.
It's just the consistent formal habits that subconsciously put interests first.
After reacting, I even felt a little embarrassed...
Fang Jun treats him sincerely, but he keeps saying it's all about benefits. What are the benefits?
It would be an insult to a friend.
Xue Wanche, who has never had a true friend, ignored an issue. Even the best friends often have interests involved.
No matter family or friendship in this world is static, it all needs to be managed.
…
The two armies joined forces in one place, with great momentum.
Five thousand soldiers were assigned to guard the prisoners each, and only after the subsequent troops arrived could there be enough manpower to escort the prisoners to Monan. In Monan, these prisoners would face the task of colonizing land, mining, building cities, laying roads and other infrastructure.
There is no doubt that a large number of prisoners will die from exhaustion, illness, or even various accidents on the construction site. Their bloody corpses will lay the foundation for countless infrastructures in the Tang Dynasty.
There was nothing that could be done about it. Letting them return to Mobei was equivalent to letting the tiger return to the mountains. Registering them with the Tang Dynasty household registration would pose a hidden danger to regional security. They worked hard under the supervision of the Tang army and contributed to the construction of the Tang Dynasty. Finally, in
After ten years of "reform through labor", the policy of "registering households to equalize the people" was enough to make these prisoners grateful.
After all, most of their colleagues have been executed, and it is a gift from God to be able to save one life now...
A camp was formed next to the ruins of Zhao Xincheng and relied on the mountains. The prisoners and part of the baggage were placed here. Fang Jun led a few soldiers of the Youtun Guards and joined forces with the Youwu Guards to go north through the pass of Tianyan Mountain and galloped towards Yu Dujun Mountain.
.
In front of them was the majestic Yudujun Mountain, known as Yanran Mountain in ancient times.
Crossing the Yanran Mountain, you will reach the hinterland of Mobei, where three rivers converge, and where Xue Yantuo's tent is. Then follow the Anhou River all the way to the northeast, and cross the gentle hills and crisscrossed rivers, and you will arrive at the place where the Huns worshiped the heaven.
, Dragon City is now occupied by the Uighurs.
On the side of Dragon City is Langjuxu Mountain.
Mobei's mountains and rivers gave birth to countless tribes with fierce folk customs. They gathered here to recuperate and then rode horses to dominate the desert grasslands. Generations of Hu soldiers looked down upon the world and shocked the masses with their martial arts. From time to time, they climbed over the high mountains and reached Monan.
, invaded the land of the Han family, plundered the border areas, and drank from the Yellow River.
However, now, under the wind and snow, the Han army, with red tassels on their helmets like fire, and flying flags, has once again ravaged the land with iron hoofs after six hundred years. Countless brave and heroic Han soldiers chased the people of the past.
The footprints of the Liehou of Changping, the champion, swept across Mobei in a furious sprint!
The still majestic Yudujun Mountain and Langjuxu Mountain look down on its descendants who, after ravaging the land of the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years, once again suffered the revenge of their own Han Dynasty.
Last time, the sword was like snow, the heroic champion Hou Fenglang lived in Mount Xu, meditated in Guyan, climbed to the Hanhai Sea, the Xiongnu fled far away, and there was no royal court in Monan.
This time, with the use of firearms, the majestic Fang Jun trampled all the way through the snow-capped mountains and rivers of Mobei, but he would definitely not just hold a symbolic ceremony before returning south, leaving Mobei a chance to breathe...
*****
The snow and frost in Mobei are severe, and the cold wind is raging.
Chang'an has been getting warmer day by day, the cold winter is about to end, and spring is approaching.
Years later, His Majesty Li Er fell seriously ill, the atmosphere in the capital was depressed, and all forces were ready to move. Many dandy boys also restrained themselves, and did not dare to indulge in sex, drinking and having fun. For a while, the city of Chang'an was quiet and solemn, and there were few crowing of chickens, dogs, and thieves to cause trouble.
, the public security is clear.
But he is a playboy after all, how patient can he be?
When the news that His Majesty the Emperor's dragon body was gradually recovering came out in the palace, he immediately returned to his old ways. Maybe he had suppressed it for too long, and once he released it, it would even be worse...
For many days in a row, Pingkang Square was full of people playing and singing day and night, and the lights in the square were bright all night long.
Spring is approaching again, and students from all over the country gather in the capital, adding to the bustle and bustle.
Pingkangfang is close to Chunmingmen Street, and there is a "Zhuangyuan Building". It is a three-story building with carved beams and painted buildings. It is extremely luxurious. It is a place where wealthy men and young people from aristocratic families usually gather.
The term "Zhuangyuan" originated from Fang Jun.
In scientific research on this matter, because the name of the first person was at the top of the list when the list was released, he was called "Zhuangtou". Fang Jun disliked it, so he called him "Zhuangyuan". These names were dignified and spread gradually.
Lai is sometimes used together with the title "Zhuangtou".
It was nearly noon, and guests gathered in the Zhuangyuan Building.
It is originally a gathering place for the dandy children in Beijing, and recently students from all over the world have flocked to Chang'an to wait for the scientific examination. Most of them are the children of officials from various prefectures and counties. Even if they are from poor families, most of them are rich and wealthy. Therefore, this place
The famous "Zhuangyuan Building" has become the preferred place for banquets.
In an elegant room by the window on the third floor, there are abundant dishes on the table and the aroma of wine overflows. Three or five friends are sitting next to each other, drinking wine and drinking wine.
Among them, a young man in his twenties raised his wine cup and said to a slightly older scholar in blue: "It's not just that I don't want to be spared, but the impact of this matter is really great. Even His Majesty is paying some attention to it. Who will eat it?"
How dare a leopard dare to muddle along and use power for personal gain? Not only the younger brother does not dare, but even Sun Siqing finds it difficult to do so. I hope that the elder brother will not blame the younger brother."
This young man has an upright appearance, a fair complexion, and a rather strong figure. Sitting there, he is as graceful as a pine tree.
The other scribe in blue shirt is slightly thin, with long and narrow cheeks and slightly dark skin. He is young but has a beard, and his eyes are clear and capable.
Hearing this, the scribe in green shirt hurriedly raised his wine cup and said warmly: "Why are you so virtuous and worthy? This happened because of my brother-in-law. He was corrupt and perverted the law and deserved what he deserved. How can I blame my worthy brother for not helping me?"
Are you complaining? My dear brother, you are worrying too much."
The two touched the wine cups and drank the wine in one gulp.
Sometimes this is the case between people. After all, it is not a big deal. On the contrary, one party takes it for granted, and the other party has resentment. There is a lack of communication, and estrangement gradually develops. Eventually, friends become extinct, and even enemies turn into enemies.
At this moment, the conversation started, one person was willing but not strong enough, helping each other but not daring to violate the laws of the country; the other person was magnanimous, preferring oneself to others, and being considerate, which not only did not affect the friendship, but made them appear closer to each other.
Next to him, a young man with a face like a crown jewel, red lips and white teeth said angrily: "Brother Su is generous, if it were me, Heng Heng, I wouldn't be able to catch up to the door and beat that melon and his brother-in-law hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart! You climb up here Is it easy to get the position of head of the Ministry of Rites? Although the prince's career path can be simplified faster, but it took nearly five years, and now he is implicated because of his brother-in-law's crime and demoted to the position of chief registrar of Lantian County. It is really unjust."
The scholar in green shirt smiled when he heard the words and said disapprovingly: "Far beyond my brother, the anger is a bit serious! Official transfer is a common thing, why not be implicated? After all, they are relatives, and the national law is like this. Besides, Who hasn't had ups and downs in the officialdom? Fang Erlang is now in a high position, in charge of the Ministry of War with the title of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War. He seems to be very prominent, but with his background, family background and outstanding talents, not only is his official career a waste of time, he has repeatedly failed. Suppressed? I am just a disciple of the Su family in martial arts. I am far behind Fang Erlang, so why should I complain?"
Sitting opposite him, a young man with handsome appearance and rich clothes praised: "I like to listen to you, Liangsi! I am a handsome man in the capital, and among the children of the aristocratic family, who can compare to Fang Erlang? He is extremely talented, amazing and gorgeous. My father worked hard to cultivate it, but he still remained calm and steady, and now he has achieved the feat of running rampant in Mobei and ravaging the grassland! I should set an example for you!"
