Li Ji was a very introverted person, and could not express his emotions or anger. It was difficult to detect his innermost feelings from his expression or even his daily behavior.
I can never forget those turbulent years in Wagang Mountain. In the past, I only had a casual relationship with Wei Zheng, and all my feelings were kept in my heart. Until Wei Zheng's death, the relationship between them was no longer enough to attract criticism from others. Only then can you say such words on an occasion like today.
After saying that, he drank the glass of wine in one go.
Wei Shuyu said quickly: "Thank you uncle for your teaching. My nephew will keep it in mind."
He raised his head and toasted three glasses in a row until the glass was dry.
Then he toasted three more glasses to everyone present, his face slightly red.
When Fang Jun saw this, he was secretly happy. Wei Shuyu was not a good drinker. Today, there were many guests and friends at the young and old gathering. They drank at each table, and they were probably drunk in a short time. In the evening, they were afraid that they would be weak-willed and could only stay in the cold. Princess Hengshan.
Considering Princess Hengshan's arrogant temperament, Wei Shuyu may have a difficult wedding night tonight.
Thinking about the Princess Gaoyang in my own family, I not only lamented that His Majesty Li Er's daughters are not easy to worry about, but it is not easy to be the emperor's son-in-law...
Wei Shuyu toasted with a round of wine and said goodbye. Today was his big day. The guests and friends were all here and he had to be considerate. No one could be ignored. Naturally, no one would drag him to drink wine, not even Cheng Yaojin. People who like liveliness never make trouble.
Of course, this is also related to the estrangement between them. Although they have been friends with Wei Zheng for many years, Wei Shuyu is a reserved and aloof person and usually does not associate with these old brothers from his father's time.
But Fang Jun remembered that when he got married, Cheng Yaojin was really noisy. If he hadn't been a good drinker, he would have been drunk by Cheng Yaojin, and he would have been helped into the wedding room...
After Wei Shuyu left, everyone had a few more drinks and talked for a while, then they all left the table and left the courtyard together.
There is no need to look for Wei Shuyu to say goodbye. At this moment, guests are leaving one after another after a banquet. Everyone in the Wei family is seeing off the guests, including the elders of the Wei family and the stewards.
Saying goodbye to the Wei family and leaving the mansion, their respective entourages were waiting outside the door. Several people got on their horses, got on their cars, and headed to Pingkangfang together.
Among them, Fang Jun was the youngest, but he was the most grand. Dozens of soldiers were wearing helmets and armor, most of them were scattered on the outside to keep watch. More than a dozen people surrounded Fang Jun and boarded the carriage, attracting the attention of the Wei family. The former guests frequently watched and pointed.
No one made fun of Fang Jun for his pomp and circumstance. Everyone knew that he had beaten and maimed more than a dozen Guanlong disciples, which was regarded as a deep hatred. He had to guard against the revenge of the Guanlong nobles at all times. No matter how many personal guards he had, it was not enough. Strange.
At this moment, a carriage slowly drove out from the side door of the Wei Mansion and went around to the main entrance, blocking Fang Jun and his party in front.
Fang Jun's soldiers clearly saw the family emblem on the car and knew it was the Changsun family's carriage. They did not dare to scold him and sat firmly on the horse with their eyes widened, waiting for the car to pass before setting off.
Unexpectedly, the carriage moved forward slowly, but stopped when it got close. The curtains of the carriage were opened, revealing Changsun Wuji's round face that didn't look very good. He said in a deep voice: "Fang Erlang, can you meet me?" ?”
Li Ji and others had already moved forward quite far, and when they heard the movement behind them, they looked back, pondered for a moment, and did not turn around. Instead, they ordered the charioteer to continue driving in the direction of Pingkangfang without any care.
Fang Jun heard Changsun Wuji's voice in the car, raised the curtain of the car, took a look, and said disapprovingly: "What does Zhao Guogong teach me, but it doesn't matter."
Changsun Wuji chuckled and said slowly: "There are rumors in the world that Fang Erlang is brave and fearless. How can he be afraid of me, an old and frail, defenseless old man?"
Fang Jun naturally didn't care about such low-level provoking methods, and said calmly: "We have different ways, and we don't want to conspire with each other. I don't think I have anything to say to Duke Zhao. If you have anything to teach me, it's okay to speak up. If you have nothing to say,
Your Majesty is driving you to Pingkangfang to have a good time."
The guests in front of the Wei Mansion were coming in and out. At this moment, they were naturally paying attention to the two carriages. Even though they blocked the street in front of the main entrance, they all stopped subconsciously and held their breath, not daring to disturb these two carriages.
Bit.
Everyone has heard what is happening now. Changsun Wuji blamed Fang Jun for the tragic death of his son. Today, he stopped him in the street. Could it be that he wanted to seek revenge from Fang Jun for killing his son?
After hearing Fang Jun's words at this moment, everyone couldn't help but admire him. Even though the current Changsun Wuji was no longer the most powerful official in the world who was inferior to one person in the early years of Zhenguan and held the imperial court with a single word, but as long as he was behind him.
While the Guanlong nobles are still there, Changsun Wuji's power is enough to make everyone fearful.
He actually compared Changsun Wuji to the sisters of Pingkangfang, even worse... Except for Fang Er, who would dare to talk to Changsun Wuji like this in public?
How exciting!
Pairs of eyes were peeping at the side with great interest, hoping that there would be some more intense scenes that would open their eyes.
Changsun Wuji naturally didn't care about the looks around him. He laughed and said slowly: "My eldest son committed a major crime because of you. Now he is living in exile in the world like a bereaved dog. My second son is even more guilty of betrayal because of you."
Suspected, I have to kill myself to apologize to the world...Don't Fang Erlang intend to give me an explanation?"
Fang Jun frowned, unable to guess what tricks this old fox was playing.
explain?
What a damn confession!
The reason why Changsun Chong conspired to usurp the throne was because the feud between him and the prince could not be eliminated. He felt that once the prince ascended the throne, he would die without a burial place, so he had to take a desperate risk. He simply removed His Majesty Li Er from power and supported a prince to ascend the throne.
to ensure his own future.
Changsun Huan's death had nothing to do with him. If Changsun Wuji hadn't been so smart, how could there have been a scene where everyone in front of the Zongzheng Temple rebelled against their relatives and had to abandon Changsun Huan and force him to die?
But Changsun Wuji stopped him in front of everyone, and kept saying that he wanted to talk to him... What was there to talk about?
He glanced at the direction where Li Ji and others disappeared, thought for a moment, finally lowered the car curtain, opened the door and walked out.
"Erlang, no!"
When Wei Ying and others saw Fang Jun actually getting out of the car, they hurriedly tried to dissuade him.
Fang Jun said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, even if I lend Changsun Wuji some courage, he wouldn't dare to do anything to me in public."
He raised his feet and walked towards Changsun Wuji's carriage.
He didn't want to talk to Changsun Wuji about anything, but he suddenly discovered a problem that he had ignored before, but he could only rely on Changsun Wuji to solve it.
Once the Guanlong nobles are completely destroyed in the future, what will be the consequences? The most direct consequence is that he will have to confront the founding heroes represented by Li Ji and others!
Again, the reason for the successful preservation of everything in the world is balance. As long as the balance is there, everything is worry-free. Once the balance is broken, everything will be overturned and everything will perish.
In the past, the Guanlong nobles were so powerful that they destroyed the balance. All forces had to unite to keep warm. They gathered all their strength to fight against the Guanlong nobles and suppress them to death, so that the court could return to balance; but once the Guanlong nobles were completely destroyed,
, the balance has been broken once again, and if he wants to continue to maintain the balance, only Fang Jun can stand up and compete with Li Ji and others.
In that situation, it will definitely not be half as easy as fighting against the Guanlong nobles now!
Even because he is a staunch "princeling", he represents more of the prince's interests. Once the two sides become hostile, it will immediately affect the stability of the prince's status.
It's hard to say that Li Ji and others can completely support the prince to participate in the fight for the throne, and his actions will be exactly the same as Guan Long's current actions...
That kind of situation is something Fang Jun is absolutely unwilling to face.
The current plan is to let the Guanlong nobles retain some of their vitality, survive the injury, and still have the power of deterrence, so that the alliance between themselves and Li Ji cannot defeat them in one fell swoop...
Fang Jun's faith was transferred, and he walked to Changsun Wuji's carriage. The charioteer opened the curtain for Fang Jun, and then stood aside respectfully.
In the carriage, Changsun Wuji sat calmly, watching Fang Jun boarding the carriage, an uncontrollable feeling of admiration surged in his heart.
According to normal logic, the two of them are now hostile to each other and have deep hatred. Fang Jun has no need to pay attention to him, let alone get on his carriage.
But Fang Jun just did this, which shows that this person has an excellent view of the overall situation and has seen situations that may happen in the future that he absolutely does not want to see.
