Changsun Wuji's expression changed, and he was horrified.
He couldn't help but think deeply, could he be like Cai Huangong, turning a blind eye to his "illness" until he was terminally ill and had no cure, so he had to commit suicide?
Fang Jun looked at the decoration in the car and said casually: "No one can live forever, and nothing can last forever. Life and death are the forms of everything in the world. They cycle endlessly and have no end. Power, fortune, are all
In this way, when the elder Sun family is prosperous in your hands, one day it will eventually fall into depression. This is the way of heaven and earth. Who can disobey it? The most important thing Zhao Guogong should do is to comply with the way of heaven, let nature take its course, and accumulate information when he is depressed.
, let it be accumulated in the future, instead of rushing forward blindly and spending the last bit of energy on the irreversible trend until exhausted and falling into the abyss forever."
Changsun Wuji had no expression on his face, but he was a little touched in his heart.
He is good at planning and understands people's hearts. He has been hopeless and unfavorable for many years, but he has never analyzed the changes in the world from the principles of heaven and earth and the destiny of yin and yang like Fang Jun.
What I have to admit is that sometimes, no matter how many and accurate the plans are, more uncontrollable factors often appear, causing the foolproof plan to completely fail.
As the saying goes, people's calculations are not as good as God's calculations. It's up to people to make things happen, but it's up to God. Even so.
The world has its own destiny, those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty disobeyed the way of heaven and eventually died and his country was destroyed. His Majesty Li Er followed the trend of the times and was able to dominate the country. Can we say that His Majesty Li Er is really better than Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty?
many?
For Changsun Wuji, who had seen Emperor Sui Yang's talents and strategies, he would never think that Emperor Sui Yang was inferior to His Majesty Li Er...
However, what he knows more clearly is that even though he understands the current situation and the importance of destiny, he can no longer look back. Due to his previous mistakes in decision-making, especially the several attempts to depose the prince, bewitching and instigating His Majesty Li Er to Yichu, he and the prince were in trouble.
The rift between them could not be eliminated at all. He was already stuck in the mud and could not extricate himself.
As long as the prince ascends the throne, how can he be kind to the eldest grandson's family who almost killed him?
…
Suddenly, Changsun Wuji realized that he had planned to confuse Fang Jun's mind, but how could he actually affect his mood and produce so many negative emotions? Changsun's family was single-handedly pushed to the forefront, and Cheng Ze
If you go straight to the blue clouds, you will be blessed in future generations; if you fail, you will fall into the mortal world and never recover.
There are not many choices in the world, and there is no room for mistakes. Since I have chosen this path, I can only grit my teeth and go on, either becoming a god or a ghost, there is no other way.
Where is there room for change?
Taking a breath, Changsun Wuji stroked his beard and said in a deep voice: "I have been accustomed to the ups and downs in my life. I have long been used to the honor and disgrace of life and death. Whether my descendants are prosperous or my family has fallen, what's the big deal? However, Erlang is different. You are now magnificent.
You are prosperous and heroic, and you still have a long way to go before reaching the pinnacle of life, so how can you not care whether the road is healthy and smooth, or whether it is full of thorns?"
Fang Jun chuckled and said: "Although I am young, I am not a person who has not experienced the world. Does Zhao Guogong think that such words to sow discord can influence my mind? Then you are looking down on me too much."
Already."
Changsun Wuji smiled, but the smile was much uglier: "Erlang is amazingly talented, who in the world dares to underestimate him? I don't believe you can't see the development trajectory of the court. Now I and Guan Long are blocking the way.
Your Majesty, the Jiangnan nobles, and the Shandong aristocratic families will all unite to resist the Guanlong nobles, but once the Guanlong nobles collapse and disappear, Erlang will have to face the Jiangnan nobles, the Shandong noble families, and even... His Majesty Li Er!"
His eyes were deep and his tone was distant. He stared closely into Fang Jun's eyes and said slowly: "The balance of the government will eventually be broken, and all peace will be shattered. Without the restraint of the Guanlong nobles, could Erlang be like this?
Are you confident that you can single-handedly support the Crown Prince to stabilize the empire and make great achievements? It is impossible. The internal strife in the government alone is enough to hold back any talented and strategist. Any attempt to achieve anything is tantamount to wishful thinking."
From ancient times to the present, China's greatest enemy has never been any foreign nation, but itself.
When it comes to political struggles, our ancestors have long been masters of the game and are unparalleled in the world. It is precisely because of this that the struggle for power has consumed almost all the ingenuity of those in power. Powers are strife and intrigues, and one scene after another is staged on the land of China.
.
If at some point someone unifies the internal thinking so that the entire empire can only speak with one voice, then the most powerful force of this nation will be revealed, and the wolf will be banished to Xu and chased to the north, and all the foreign races will have no choice but to fight under the iron hooves of the Han people.
She was trembling and humble.
However, once the internal strife and entanglement persist, the huge internal strife will exhaust the blood of this nation, allowing foreign barbarians to knock on the door and invade, and all life will be ruined.
Is Fang Jun really focused on the struggle for power, intending to make one person inferior to tens of thousands of people?
of course not.
Therefore, he is almost the one person in the world who least wants to see Datang exhaust its energy due to internal fighting and miss the opportunity to dominate the world.
And Changsun Wuji's words hit Fang Jun's scruples hard - even if all the Guanlong nobles were eliminated at this moment, would the court situation be stable and everything would be smooth and united?
Absolutely impossible.
As long as there are people, there is class; as long as there is class, there is power; as long as there is power, the struggle will never end.
Without the common enemy of the Guanlong nobles, the remaining forces will still fight overtly and covertly for power, and even the scale will be even greater!
Let the nobles of Guanlong go and let the current situation, which no one can do anything about, continue?
Nope either.
Because His Majesty Li Er didn't know what he was thinking at this juncture, he actually canceled the ban on confinement by King Li Zhi of Jin Dynasty, allowed him to open a palace and build teeth, and regained his freedom.
Once the Guanlong nobles linger on and get mixed up with Jin Wang Li Zhi, it will almost be the same as history repeating itself. Fang Jun is the person in the world who knows best what kind of power the combination of the two can bring out.
Everything he did was to prevent the Tang Empire from wasting energy due to internal strife and sowing the seeds of destruction. How could he sit back and watch history repeat itself?
Fang Jun pondered and asked: "Whether it is the Jiangnan nobles or the Shandong nobles, as long as the alliance of the Guanlong nobles falls apart, the rest will be just a struggle for power, but no one will want to kill me. I
Why should we preserve the nobles of Guanlong?"
Changsun Wuji said: "Now there are two tigers fighting each other, Guanlong is one faction, and the rest belong to the same faction; but once Guanlong is destroyed, all the heroes will rise together. Jiangnan and Shandong are all rich in knowledge, and no one will be able to live in the same place."
Moreover, even if Guanlong is destroyed, it is impossible for everyone to die, after all, it will still be one force... By that time, the chaos in the court and the losses from internal fighting will definitely exceed Erlang's imagination."
Fang Jun frowned and said: "Even if everything goes as planned by Duke Zhao, so what? Everyone is fighting for power and profit, but there is still a bottom line, so no one has to take my life."
Changsun Wuji's eyes were blazing: "If it were anyone else, he would naturally care about his own life, regardless of the corruption of his center and the instability of the world. But Erlang is not someone else. You have ambitions in your heart and will never care about your own life and death. You will definitely
Do your best to maintain the stability of the court, and then push the Tang Empire to a higher level."
You have to admit, the people who know you best may be your enemies.
Changsun Wuji really saw through Fang Jun's ambition. Fang Jun would not let the empire fall into internal strife just because of power.
To give the surrounding barbarian states a chance to breathe.
*****
Night shrouds Chang'an, and the sky is dotted with stars.
After getting off Changsun Wuji's carriage, Fang Jun stood among the soldiers, looked up at the night sky, and let out a long breath.
It has to be said that Changsun Wuji's words really touched his fear, which made him waver in his idea of uniting with the Jiangnan nobles and Shandong aristocratic families to annihilate the Guanlong nobles.
Wei Ying stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Erlang, do you want to go to Pingkangfang? It's already getting late."
Li Ji and others are still waiting for him in Pingkangfang...
Fang Jun pondered for a moment and said: "If we don't go to Pingkangfang first, let's go to the palace to see you!"
Wei Ying was stunned: "At this hour? It's a bit late."
Fang Jun shook his head and did not get on the carriage. Instead, he led a war horse, turned over and jumped onto the horse's back.
He must first go to see His Majesty Li Er and find out what His Majesty Li Er thinks about lifting the prohibition on confinement of Jin King Li Zhi at this time. Is it true that as he guessed, the Emperor is once again thinking about Yi Chu?
