Only then did Wang Jingzhi realize that in this incident, the biggest threat to the Wang family was not His Majesty the Emperor, but Fang Jun...
After all, being the king of a country has too many things to weigh the pros and cons. It seems that he has the supreme power to rule over the world, but in fact it is difficult to act as he pleases. Otherwise, Emperor Sui Yang will learn from the past.
However, Fang Jun is different.
The point of reference in this matter is Fang Jun, and Fang Jun seems to have encountered a trough now, but after all, where is the unparalleled feat that swept across Mobei? Everyone knows that this is the choice of His Majesty Li Er to suppress first and then promote.
Dharma, this is how the emperor’s mind works.
Placed in any court, this meritorious service is enough to shine through history and shock the world. It is natural that he should be promoted to a higher position.
In the final analysis, Fang Jun was wronged.
If Fang Jun breaks out hysterically at this moment, whether it is directed at the Taiyuan Wang family or the mastermind behind the whole thing, His Majesty Li Er will have no choice but to let it go and will not be able to suppress it.
As the suppression continues, it means that he wants to be useful, but he has a grudge in his heart, which makes Fang Jun alienate...
But how could Fang Jun look for the bad luck behind the scenes?
This man may seem vulgar, but in fact he is well versed in the ways of officialdom. Since His Majesty Li Er was able to remain silent and avoid investigation for the sake of the overall situation, it is even more impossible for Fang Jun to ignore the emperor's wishes.
So if Fang Jun wants to vent his anger, the best target is the Wang family...
When Wang Chongji saw that Wang Jingzhi had understood, he said flatly: "Go to Fang Mansion to meet Fang Jun in person immediately. Don't show any airs. You are a son of a noble family, and he is also a son of a noble family. You are the emperor's son-in-law, and he is also the emperor's son-in-law.
But this person's achievements were made with real swords and guns, and he is much better than you! In front of Fang Er, you have nothing to be proud of. Put down your airs and express enough sincerity. Those in Jiangnan who were seized by the navy
I will give all my property to Fang Jun as an apology. If it is not enough to calm his anger, let him speak!"
Speaking of this, he said in a solemn tone: "Since it is an apology, we must be sincere and let everyone in Guanzhong see it. Although our Wang family was implicated in this matter, it can even be said to be framed, but
I still shoulder the responsibility with all my strength, and the more the fuss becomes, the more people will see clearly the shameless face of the Changsun family! Tell Fang Er that he can ask for whatever he wants. Even if the Wang family gives everything they have, they will still bear the responsibility.
A responsibility! Even if he wants your girl, you have to clean it up and send it over!"
Everyone in the room looked at each other in shock, and you could hear the drop of a pin.
The corner of Wang Jingzhi's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself: I would like to send the girl to Fang Jun as a concubine, but the problem is that he might not like her...
But he understood what Wang Chongji meant.
The eldest son secretly bribed Wang Jingxun to frame Fang Jun. What he did had broken the inherent bottom line of tacit understanding between the family members, and could even be said to be extremely immoral.
When this incident broke out, although the Wang family suffered some financial losses, it was the best way to save their reputation.
What the world often sees is not the result, but the process leading to the result.
For example, in the crime of murder, although the result is death, different motives and different methods often lead to very different conclusions.
Even sympathize...
The Wang family was innocent in this matter, but now they stand up and take responsibility, and are willing to give up a large sum of money to gain Fang Junzhi's understanding, which at least gives them a head start in public opinion.
The most important thing for a family is reputation. Xiao Siye, who stepped forward to be a "dead man", is now famous throughout the Tang Dynasty. Everyone has to praise the "Loyal and Brave Family". Compared with this, no matter how much wealth they have,
The goods are not worth mentioning either!
And the whole thing is located on the opposite side of the Wang family, the Changsun family.
The Wang family's generous and decisive attitude will not only win the sympathy of public opinion, but also push the eldest son's family into a "disloyal and unjust" situation. This is also the Wang family's revenge.
In the past, Changsun Chong conspired to rebel, and now he has colluded with Wang Jingxun to frame Fang Jun. The reputation of the Changsun family may be completely ruined...
Of course, the other purpose behind the generous expression of apology is that it does not mean to "coerce" Fang Jun: You see, our attitude is so good, you are too embarrassed to ask for more apology, right? It's too much, so I won't say anything.
, but when outsiders look at it, they will inevitably say that your roommate is not particular...
In the past, this elder brother was dull and taciturn, but after his father passed away and inherited the position of head of the family, he suddenly burst out with such extraordinary resourcefulness, which is really unbelievable.
"Today is the birthday of Princess Changle. We have set up a plain banquet in the Taoist Temple on Zhongnan Mountain in the south of the city to entertain all the princes and princesses. I also received the invitation. Later, I will go to the banquet with Princess Nanping. Fang Jun will also be invited. By then
I am looking for an opportunity to express this meaning and make it widely known."
"That's very good, but you have to control the scale carefully. Don't let Fang Jun misunderstand that we are deliberately making a big show of things and seem to be intimidating. Although our family is close to the King of Jin, after all, the prince is the heir apparent at the moment, and Fang Jun is now becoming more and more powerful.
Sheng, with full wings, must not break up easily."
"Brother, don't worry, little brother, just remember."
"Go and prepare a generous gift for Princess Changle. Although there are many rumors in the market that are untrue, the relationship between Fang Jun and Princess Changle is indeed delicate. As long as Princess Changle is willing to help with a word, this matter will be over.
."
"Here!"
Wang Jingzhi solemnly agreed and wanted to prepare birthday gifts.
The birthday gift had been prepared for a long time, but the situation had changed at this time, and in order to please Princess Changle, more thought was needed.
Unexpectedly, Wang Chongji stood up, walked to him, patted his shoulder gently, then leaned slightly and whispered in his ear: "Don't feel aggrieved, let alone feel unjust. Give Fang Jun a chance tonight."
Attitude, then tomorrow you go to Changsun’s house to meet with Duke Zhao to discuss with him the purchase of wool by our family in Dingxiang.”
Having said that, leave first.
Wang Jingzhi was completely impressed...
*****
The sky is cloudy in the south, and the dusk is gloomy.
The sun had already set in the west, and the remaining white light on the horizon could not penetrate the dense trees of Zhongnan Mountain. Under the shade of the trees, it was already dark.
The mountains are even darker, and the undulating mountains are like dormant beasts. Among the winding mountains, two red lanterns are hung on the gate of a small Taoist temple. The shadows of the trees are dancing, the cool breeze is blowing, and the artistic conception is elegant.
A group of carriages and horses came along the mountain road and fell in front of the mountain gate. Fang Jun, who was riding at the front, jumped off his horse and threw the reins to the people behind him. There was a little Taoist nun trotting out of the mountain gate.
Go and pick up the female family members on the carriage behind.
The spacious and luxurious four-wheeled carriage stopped, the door opened, and Princess Gaoyang stepped out of the carriage. She was dressed in a crimson palace dress. She had a delicate figure and a beautiful face. Her head was full of pearls and green, and she had a graceful appearance. Behind her, there was a handsome little girl with bright eyes and white teeth.
Girl, it is Yu Mingxue.
Fang Jun glanced at it and shook his head helplessly.
In fact, he is unwilling to participate in such occasions. It seems that Princess Changle is not far away from extravagance, but the brothers and sisters are close to each other. However, the emperor's children themselves have their own interests, and everyone is surrounded by a group of people who are working for their own interests.
The guests, Princess Changle, had good intentions, but these people gathered together, either taking the opportunity to talk and bond, or to compare themselves with each other.
Very boring...
At the gate of the mountain, Wang De, the chief chamberlain, took off the eunuch's robe and put on a loose Taoist robe. He had a fair complexion and no beard under his chin, but he looked more like an immortal and less vulgar. He was quite charming.
The charm of the Taoist wandering clouds and wild cranes.
"You are always away from serving His Majesty in the palace, how can you have time to leave the palace?"
Fang Jun stepped forward and greeted with a smile.
He has never discriminated against eunuchs. Moreover, the eunuchs in the Tang Dynasty were actually much better than those in some dynasties. He had a close relationship with Wang De. Even Wang De's nephews and relatives who stayed in his hometown were settled by Fang Jun. There was no such thing as fertile land.
There are thousands of mansions in Guangzhou, but you still have enough food and clothing to live in peace and harmony for your family.
This was exactly Wang De's original request. With Fang Jun's energy, what kind of wealth and official position could not be obtained? However, it is not a good thing for a poor person to suddenly become wealthy. As the saying goes, "If virtue is not matched, there will be disaster." Suddenly, wealth increases.
I am afraid of unexpected disaster...
"Haha, I was assigned by His Majesty to celebrate His Highness Changle's birthday. Erlang, you seem to be in a good mood and are not disgusted by those mundane things."
Wang De also smiled and meant something.
The two have a deep relationship, and there is nothing to be taboo about when talking and laughing.
Fang Jun shook his head with a wry smile, walked into the mountain gate, and said as he walked: "Now I have realized what is meant by 'when people sit at home, disaster will come from the sky'. Tell me who you provoked whom, for no reason."
