Xiao Shuer poured tea for Fang Jun docilely and said softly: "Husband, please use tea."
Fang Jun took it with both hands: "Thank you!"
After taking a sip, he said to Princess Gaoyang: "Let's end this matter. Your Majesty is also in a dilemma. As a king, you cannot favor one thing over another. After all, the Yin people of Changsun are too insidious and vicious in this matter, and there is nothing your Majesty can do.
After all, you won't stand against almost all the courtiers for a certain person, right? If you can't help the king, you have lost your duty as a minister. If you cause more trouble to your majesty, how can you feel at ease?"
Xiao Shuer's beautiful eyes sparkled as she watched her husband express his true feelings and show his integrity, and the love in her heart became more and more overflowing.
This is the true loyal minister and the true gentleman!
Even though he suffered injustice, he never became cynical. Instead, he was able to consider the emperor's feelings and understand the emperor's difficulties. How could he be so broad-minded if he were not a hero in this world?
Wu Meiniang, who was next to her, flashed her beautiful eyes and glanced at her husband who had an upright face.
I know that you are not a coward who swallows his losses. You speak uprightly. You must have a plan to fight back and retaliate...
"Where are the children?"
Fang Jun couldn't help but ask as he saw his two sons missing.
Princess Gaoyang held her head and said: "I have forgotten... They are all in the attic of the garden. Earlier, Changsun Wuji came to make trouble. Mei Niang sent people to take them to the garden, and sent servants to protect them so as not to be frightened.
I actually forgot to get it back."
He hurriedly sent someone to bring the child back.
Fang Jun then looked at Wu Meiniang and nodded slightly. Apart from his father, there was no one in this family who was more thoughtful and detailed than Wu Meiniang.
After all, this is a woman who can "overwhelm begonias with a pear tree", steal Zuo of the Tang Dynasty and become the emperor...
When Wu Meiniang received Fang Jun's grateful and appreciative look, she smiled charmingly and said nothing, but it was all in silence.
The tacit understanding is very good...
After a while, lunch was prepared, the maid brought it and set a full table, and the two sons were also brought back.
As soon as they saw Fang Jun, the two little guys broke free from the maid's hand, ran to Fang Jun's knees with their short legs, and climbed up while shouting and hugging his legs.
Fang Jun quickly bent down, held each of them in his arms, and then let them sit on his lap. Listening to the sweet sounds and sweet words, holding their soft bodies, his heart almost melted.
Princess Gao Yang suddenly felt disgusted and said dissatisfiedly: "These two bastards! They are usually very naughty. If you want to hug them, you have to give them a good hug. Your father is very busy outside all day long, how could he ever
I have no time to take care of you? But you are so affectionate..."
When Wu Meiniang heard this, His Highness was still thinking about the fact that Princess Silla was going to marry...
This is not acceptable, not to mention that being "jealous" is the worst mistake a woman can make. From a man's point of view, if he feels that all the women in his family will have objections to him taking concubines, he will feel conflicted and have problems.
On the contrary, if the princess of Silla is a charming master, she may neglect them all and only favor the princess of Silla. What should I do?
My man has a stubborn temper, he will go backwards if he is not led away, he must be smoothed over...
He quickly changed the topic and said: "The food is all ready, let's eat quickly."
Fang Jun didn't care.
Princess Gaoyang is kind-hearted, but in the final analysis she is inevitably a little bit "princess sick". She is sensitive and arrogant, and her dissatisfaction will show on her face. She is innocent and has no scheming, but she is indeed suitable for the position of a lady.
Otherwise, if someone with a quick mind and foresight were to meet a concubine like Wu Meiniang, whose methods, intelligence, and strategies are all unfathomable... I'm afraid it would be like Mars hitting the Earth every day. Such scenes would be unimaginable.
.
It is precisely because Princess Gaoyang has no scheming and only decides things based on her likes and dislikes that Xiao Shuer is willing to give in to her.
Although this little lady looks like a gentle and charming girl from the Jiangnan water town, she is actually soft on the outside but strong on the inside and arrogant on the inside. She can be humble in front of Princess Gaoyang, but if you want her to condescend to Wu Meiniang
It's absolutely impossible.
Fang Jun scratched his eyebrows. There are three women in a drama. The three women in his family don't have a fuel-efficient lamp. If they are not careful, it will inevitably lead to a situation where the world will fall apart...
*****
In the next few days, the situation was as expected, with a turbulent wave rising throughout the court!
Countless imperial censors stood up one after another, angrily criticizing and accusing such assassination methods of being despicable and shameless, treating the laws of the empire as nothing, even breaking through the bottom line of morality, bringing panic to the entire court, and the person behind the assassination.
You must accept the severe punishment of the law and never tolerate it!
The impeachment memorial usually flew to the political hall, where it was reviewed one by one by the ministers and ministers and forwarded to the desk of His Majesty Li Er.
All the memorials, while criticizing and admonishing, pointed the finger at the biggest suspect in the case - Fang Jun.
In this regard, His Majesty Li Er's attitude is somewhat intriguing,
The imperial officials believed that the soon-to-be-established Military Aircraft Department should not appoint such a person with great suspicion as the Military Aircraft Minister. His Majesty Li Er agreed and gave instructions in writing that it is not appropriate to enter until Fang Jun can clear away the suspicion.
Military Aircraft Department, serving as the chief officer of the imperial military.
However, in the face of the memorial admonishing Fang Jun to be severely punished, His Majesty Li Er's attitude was extremely tough - the case had a major impact and far-reaching implications, and the three judicial departments were ordered to jointly conduct a joint trial. However, before the three judicial departments finalized the case, he would never rely solely on suspicion.
Any suspect will be punished if charged.
The meaning is very clear. You said that Fang Jun is a serious suspect and it is not appropriate to enter the military aircraft department, lest in the future when the case is discovered and it is revealed that Fang Jun was responsible, the entire empire will lose face. I agree.
But if you want to go beyond the legal procedures and impose arbitrary punishments, it is absolutely impossible.
As a result, the court was suddenly divided into two factions.
One group is officials headed by the Shandong family and the Jiangnan gentry. Their purpose of impeaching Fang Jun is to learn from past mistakes and avoid future mistakes. They will never allow "assassination" to spread and become the norm to attack political opponents. If everyone disagrees with each other, they will engage in "assassination".
", who the hell can stand it?
His Majesty Li Er had a firm attitude and made it clear that he would not allow Fang Jun to enter the military aircraft office. After taking this as punishment, these people achieved their goal and stopped.
The other faction is purely opponents whose interests are opposite to Fang Jun's...
Their original intention was to take advantage of this opportunity to completely knock Fang Jun into the dust. Not only was the Military Aircraft Department inaccessible, but even the position of Minister of the Ministry of War had to be given up!
Mr. Zhao Guogong was so shameless that he laid out the firewood for everyone. Don't we people even have the determination to light a fire and completely burn Fang Jun's mallet to ashes?
Even if the Sanfa Division was established, they would not give in. They launched a vigorous attack on Fang Jun inside and outside the court, and they would not give up until Fang Jun was completely defeated...
…
Fang Jun didn't care about this.
He has never done anything wrong in his life, and he is not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. The assassination of Chang Sun Chong was indeed not his fault. He did not believe that someone could frame him even if he did not do it. He was aboveboard and naturally had no fear. Moreover,
Although he has only been in office for a few years, how many people have been impeached?
It's drizzling...
Therefore, when Sun Fuga, the minister of Dali Temple, was ordered to summon him to Dali Temple to hear the news, Fang Jun was bright and upright, speaking and laughing.
"If Sun Siqing has any questions, I will tell you everything I know and will definitely cooperate with you."
Hearing Fang Jun say these words, Sun Fujia suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
He has a close personal relationship with Fang Jun, so he naturally knows this man's temper. He is really afraid that Bang Chui will lose his temper and cause a scene in Dali Temple...
After some inquiries, Sun Fuga invited Fang Jun to come to the side hall for tea.
"It would be best if Fang Shaobao could be considerate of me."
Sun Fujia personally poured tea for Fang Jun and said sincerely: "There are flaws in this case, but there is absolutely no disadvantage to Fang Shaobao. I only heard the news in accordance with the law. After all, there is a lot of public opinion inside and outside the court, and many people
Everyone thinks that Fang Shaobao is the biggest suspect, both public and private, if it can prove Fang Shaobao's innocence, it will be a good thing."
Due to public opinion, he had to hear about Fang Jun.
And if it can be proven that Fang Jun is not involved in the whole case, it will also be a good opportunity to clear Fang Jun's reputation. Before the case is revealed, public opinion can say whatever they want, but once Dali Temple determines that Fang Jun is
Junfei is the murderer or the mastermind. If anyone continues to hold on to him, it will not only be a matter of defaming his reputation, but Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment will be held accountable.
How can the dignified Crown Prince Shaobao and the Minister of War be allowed to be slandered by others?
Of course, Sun Fujia, who has been in the officialdom all his life, also knows that the real purpose of those people to impeach and slander Fang Jun is not to seriously identify Fang Jun as the murderer or mastermind, and to bring him to justice.
The main purpose of canonical punishment is to prevent Fang Jun from entering the military aircraft department that will be established soon.
Now that the goal has been achieved and His Majesty has expressed his stance, this trend will dissipate soon.
As for apprehending the real culprit...
No one had any hope.
Every day in the Tang Dynasty, there are countless cases that cannot be solved and are left unsolved. How can this one be missing?
