When Li Ji, Xiao Yu, Fang Xuanling and others have already expressed their support for Li Chengqian, if Fang Jun is added to the list of Lingyan Pavilion whose status suddenly rises, the crown prince's position will be as stable as Mount Tai. How can the King of Jin still do it?
Is there any chance?
The balance of forces between the DPRK and China has always been the focus of His Majesty Li Er's tireless efforts to maintain.
That's why Li Chengqian said that the reason why His Majesty Li Er hesitated to list Fang Jun in Lingyan Pavilion was because of his drag...
Du Hesheng was born in a family of officials, so he naturally had an insight into politics that was unparalleled by ordinary people. Although he was not considered to be an outstanding talent, after thinking about it for a moment, he understood why Li Chengqian was sighing and looking ashamed.
Thinking about the huge gap between himself and Fang Jun, he understood more clearly that Li Chengqian really cared about his friendship with him, so he specifically advised him to have a good relationship with Fang Jun today. The level between the two determines the disparity in power.
The gap really made Fang Jun anxious. It wouldn't take much effort to pinch himself to death...
Du He let out a long sigh, raised his glass, and drained it in one gulp.
The most depressing thing in the world is that you can't get rid of someone you can't stand but you try your best to kill him. On the other hand, you have to be prepared to be killed by him and have to bow your head and give in...
Especially Li Chengqian's attitude.
After many years of acquaintance, he knew Li Chengqian's character well. The prince was usually a kind woman but had a weak character. However, it was precisely because of this that he became more interested in the people around him. Today, he felt that he was indebted to Fang Jun, so in the future
It will be compensated ten times and a hundred times.
Originally, Fang Jun was the mainstay of Li Chengqian's team, but now that he has such thoughts of compensation, it is conceivable that once Li Chengqian successfully ascends the throne and becomes the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Fang Jun's status will be unshakable, and no one will have any choice but to succumb to him.
Down.
…
After drinking for several hours, Du He's feet felt weak when he walked out of the East Palace. He almost fell down when boarding the car. After returning to the mansion, he took a hot bath and drank a pot of strong tea, and the alcohol smell dissipated a little.
But my heart was still depressed. I leaned back on the chair and closed my eyes to rest, thinking about the future trends in my mind.
With the jingling bells hanging around his ears and the fragrance assailing his nostrils, Du He opened his eyes and saw his wife, Princess Chengyang, dressed in palace attire and with a head full of pearls, sitting meticulously on the chair next to her.
Du Heqi said: "Your Highness is out?"
Princess Chengyang nodded and said, "Well, I just went to the seventh sister's place."
Du He frowned slightly, pondered for a long time, then breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "From now on, it's better to keep a distance from the Chai family. It's not advisable to get too close."
Princess Chengyang is the legitimate daughter of His Majesty Li Er and Queen Wende, the sister of Princess Changle, and the elder sister of Princess Jinyang. She has a cold and reserved personality, and does not have much contact with her sisters. She only has Ba Ling, the wife of Chai Lingwu.
The princesses had a close relationship because they were close in age and had played together when they were young. She frowned slightly at the gentle words and asked curiously: "Why is this? Lang Jun has always been on good terms with Chai's consort, why did he say such words today?"
Du He knew very well that his wife had a cool and stubborn character, and vague words could not be persuaded, so he had to explain: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince summoned me to the East Palace just now, and I have already sworn allegiance."
Princess Chengyang blinked her eyes and said "hmm" without interrupting.
She naturally knows the direction of the current direction of the court, but she is the legitimate daughter of His Majesty Li Er, and she, Li Chengqian, and Li Zhi are all of the same mother. No matter who of the two gets the crown prince position and becomes the emperor, her status is not the same.
There may be a little bit of vacillation.
But for Lang Jun Du He, the meaning is completely different.
If you make the right choice, you will become the emperor's confidant from then on, and your political ambitions will be greatly expanded; if you make the wrong choice, you will still be rich and prosperous, but if you choose to be idle and stay away from the center, you can only be a rich and idle person.
She has a cold personality and doesn't care about power, wealth, ambition, etc., so she just listens and doesn't express any opinions or interfere with Du He's choices.
Du He didn't wait for Princess Chengyang to speak, and said to himself: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince told me to make more friends with Fang Jun in the future, and be sure to draw a clear line with those in Guanlong, so as not to get entangled in the end and be taken advantage of by others.
, which plunged my Fangling Du family into a whirlpool and was unable to extricate themselves."
Princess Chengyang stretched out her hand to gather a few stray hairs at her temples, took off the earrings from her crystal-clear jade earlobes, lowered her eyelashes, and said softly: "What does this have to do with me? You men are fighting outside.
Women will naturally not care about their future, who is close to them and who is alienated from them, but I can't treat my sisters and brothers as enemies just because of you, right?"
Du He rubbed his temples and felt a little headache.
Her Royal Highness, the princess, is not like a member of the royal family at all. She does not care about power and other things. She does not care about the husband's past at all. She can only say: "Your Highness is not allowed to be close to your brothers and sisters. Even if
Now I have sworn allegiance to His Highness the Crown Prince, but His Highness and the King of Jin are still brother and sister, so what’s the harm in getting closer? Only Princess Baling can’t do that. Chai Lingwu has framed Fang Jun many times. The hatred between the two is difficult to resolve. My family
If you continue to get closer to the Chai family, it will be against the will of His Highness the Crown Prince."
Princess Chengyang was silent. She just took off her earrings and handed them to the maid beside her, then drank tea quietly, seemingly turning a deaf ear to Du He's words and indifferent.
Du He had a big headache...
The wife's character is simply weird. She was clearly born into a royal family, and she should be surrounded by fame and fortune, seeking benefits and avoiding disadvantages, being tactful and sophisticated. However, the reality is completely opposite. Princess Chengyang usually eats lightly and wears the same clothes as the palace when she comes in and out.
It is enough to install a carriage and three or two attendants.
What's more, he has always been disdainful of power, and his temperament is as cold as a worldly master...
Even when it comes to the struggle for the throne, he rarely expresses his opinion, let alone takes it seriously.
This makes Du He very depressed. As a princess, you, the prince, and the king of Jin are all from the same mother, so you stay out of the fight for the throne. No matter who wins in the future, your status will never be the same.
Because of this, you have suffered no harm at all, so you don't care about my husband's future and look at you with cold eyes?
It's obviously not the same intention...
But no matter how depressed he felt, he didn't dare to show off his emotions, so he could only say patiently: "Chai Lingwu is a narrow-minded man, and he is bound to retaliate. He is not a blessed person. His brother Chai Zhewei is even more bossy and arrogant. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to die a good death in the future."
People like this must stay away from him, so as not to be implicated when he falls in the future."
Princess Chengyang raised her head and glanced at him. Her expression was cold and showed no signs of happiness or anger. She just said lightly: "I know what I know, sir. You don't need to worry."
Du He was a little annoyed. What do you think? You clearly look down on me and are going against me!
Holding back his anger, he suddenly felt something in his heart and said: "Listen to what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said, this time King Wei and Fang Jun are going south, and Princess Gaoyang, Princess Changle, and Princess Jinyang will be accompanying them. Your Highness, you have been trapped in the pass all day, so come and go."
If you have nothing to do, why not go south with a few princesses to enjoy the scenery of Jiangnan and relax."
Princess Chengyang remained silent and drank tea quietly, neither agreeing nor objecting.
Du He couldn't stand Princess Chengyang's look the most. As a husband, he couldn't get any response from his wife. This made him feel that he was completely insignificant in his wife's mind and had almost no sense of existence. He couldn't bear the anger he had endured for a long time.
He stood there, with a gloomy face, and said slowly: "Since getting married, His Highness seems to be very dissatisfied with Wei Chen, and he has never taken Wei Chen seriously, but I don't know why."
Princess Chengyang's delicate hands holding the tea cup paused slightly, she raised her head and glanced at Du He with a slightly different look, their eyes met, she frowned slightly, but still did not speak.
Du He was drunk and hot-blooded. He couldn't bear it and said: "Wei Chen knows His Highness's thoughts. Don't you just look down on us? He only relies on the shadow of his father's generation, eats and waits for death without learning or skills. He has never stood out or established himself."
I am not worthy of your golden branches and jade leaves, and I will bring shame on you!"
He spoke louder and louder, and all the resentment he had accumulated since getting married was vented at this moment.
The maid on the side was so frightened that she didn't dare to speak out. She lowered her head and looked at her toes, fearing that she would make a little noise to attract Du He's attention and be punished.
Princess Chengyang was also a little surprised. She put down her teacup, looked at Du He with her clear eyes, and said calmly: "I have always had such a temperament, and I treat everyone like this. A real man does not only need to make achievements, but also to be glorious and broad-minded.
You are so ambitious in the world, otherwise how can you stand up to this tall, seven-foot-tall body? No wonder the prince brother wants to tell you to make friends with Fang Jun, because with your character of not seeking advancement, your future achievements will be thrown away by others.
I don’t know how far it is. I attached it to Jiwei early today, and maybe someone can take care of it in the future..."
