Hearing that Fang Jun had given him one hundred thousand yuan at his request, Li Zhi looked at Fang Jun eagerly, feeling both admiration and envy in his heart.
His literary talent is unparalleled in the world, his martial arts is the best among the three armies, and he is known as the "God of Wealth" because of his ability to "turn stone into gold". He has great prestige and outstanding achievements, but he is also the royal prince's consort, but he has ulterior motives... Such a minister is like a tiger with wings, but he will die.
She supported the prince sincerely and had a close friendship with the King of Wei, but she was a little distant from herself and found it difficult to have a heart-to-heart relationship with her...
Li Zhi lamented in his heart, such a good minister should choose a tree to live in. If he could get help from Fang Jun, why would his father not pass the throne to him?
It's a pity that he was born a little late and was unable to take him into his service before the prince and the King of Wei... At the same time, he also realized that the prince was bound to be deposed, and if Fang Jun gave up the prince and turned to the King of Wei,
Under his command, it will be an extremely disadvantageous situation for himself.
Thoughts were swirling in my mind, but my face was green and well-behaved. With a smile on my face, I looked like a quiet and beautiful young man...
Li Tai patted Fang Jun on the shoulder, then turned to ask the prince: "I heard that the prince has asked my father to go to Da Ci'en Temple tomorrow to fast for a hundred days to pray for the queen?"
Li Chengqian nodded and said: "Exactly. A few days ago, I dreamed back at midnight. I dreamed about the days when I followed my father and my mother lived in the Qin Palace. Although my mother had been dead for many years, her voice and smile remained unchanged. I was moved, so I planned to enter.
Go to the temple to pray.”
The two highnesses were silent.
The eldest son has such an advantage. He can reveal the envy and jealousy of others by telling the past inadvertently. At that time, His Majesty Li Er was just the King of Qin, and he suffered from the suppression of Prince Jiancheng and King Yuanji of Qi. He was Gaozu
The emperor didn't like to see him very much, so what kind of suffering was it when he was surrounded by enemies on all sides? Until the father and the emperor rebelled against each other in a desperate situation, the prince was always involved, and the critical moment they experienced together, between life and death, was no matter what.
Irreplaceable.
Let’s talk about the queen... If the queen was still alive, how could she agree with the father to depose his eldest son and establish a new crown prince?
The hall fell silent for a moment, even a little embarrassed.
A rush of footsteps outside broke the silence, and King Jiang Li Yun was seen running in in a brocade robe. He first saluted several brothers, then came forward and sat under Fang Jun. He leaned closer and asked in a low voice: "
So Jiangnan fell to the ground, how beautiful the mountains and rivers are, so that Sister Xiuzhu didn't return to Chang'an? Could it be that the prime minister went to Jiangnan to choose a husband for Sister Xiuzhu? If this is true, can you, Duke of Yue, do it?
If you inform this king, I will immediately leave everything behind and go to Jiangnan, and I will definitely disturb the marriage!"
Speaking of this, he said with a depressed look: "Speaking of which, what do you think of your family's collapse? After all, I am also the prince of the current dynasty, a noble man in Tianhuang. How come you still look down on me in every possible way and still refuse to agree to my request?"
Marrying a Xiuzhu girl? This is simply unreasonable!"
He fell in love with Fang Xiuzhu at first sight, and his love was deep. However, not only his mother and concubine, but also his father did not support this. The Fang family even tried to shirk it in every possible way and treated him very unfavorably. This made him extremely depressed. The prince was so noble and so respected in the world.
Whose girl is not crying and shouting to marry into the prince's palace, never thought that someone would be so disgusted with her?
Li Tai, the king of Wei, said in a deep voice: "Seventh brother must not be rude! Erlang, the pillar of Fang Xiangguo, has also made great achievements. How can he rely on his status as a prince to force the Fang family? This matter must not be mentioned again, otherwise if his father finds out about it, he may not want to steal it.
Off your skin!"
Jiang Wang Li Yun shrank his neck in fright, feeling uneasy in his heart, and quickly defended: "How could I have coerced the Fang family? The so-called fair lady, a gentleman likes to be jealous, the younger brother is unmarried, and the younger sister of the Fang family is unmarried, I don't know what is wrong."
Compared to the kind and honest prince, the younger brothers are obviously more in awe of the rebellious Li Tai. This guy is proud of his talent, has the favor and support of his father, and is famous for turning his back on others...
Li Tai raised his eyebrows and glared at Li Yun: "How dare you refute? Don't think that I don't know your thoughts. Maybe you are really in love with Xiuzhu, but who knows what your mother-in-law's intentions are? I will be your King Jiang honestly.
, glory, wealth and respect are extremely high, don’t think about those things that you have and don’t have.”
Li Yun's face turned the color of pig liver from suppressing his emotions, but he was too shy to speak.
His mother was born in the Langya Wang family and had connections with Shandong aristocratic families and Jiangnan gentry. Although the Langya Wang family is now in some decline, their heritage is still there, and Li Yun is also His Majesty's son after all. At this time of turmoil in Yichu, who can be without it?
How much hope is there?
Even if those extravagant hopes turn out to be illusory, there are still many benefits once you become relatives with the Fang family of "a family with two kingdoms", not to mention that Fang Jun has the ability to "turn stone into gold". With just a little guidance, King Langya can
The family can accumulate huge wealth, and the revitalization of the family is just around the corner.
This is an obvious benefit, so Li Yun cannot deny that he has no motive in his heart, but what he cares more about is Fang Xiuzhu. He feels that if love and career can have the best of both worlds, what's wrong with it?
You have to bear the fate of your parents, the words of the matchmaker, and blind marriage. If you can marry the woman you like as your wife, you will be extremely lucky...
Although Fang Jun was a little dissatisfied with Li Yun coveting his own cabbage, he couldn't stand it when he saw that Li Tai was scolding him so hard that he couldn't stand it, so he came to the rescue and said: "Children are just playing around, how can they know so much?"
? Besides, Wei Chen, the girl, is extremely doted on by her father and Wei Chen. She is very fierce and has already promised her to make the decision on her own marriage. If His Highness Prince Jiang is really serious about it, he might as well work hard for it. If he can win the favor of his sister-in-law, Wei Chen
I will not interfere unreasonably."
Li Tai thought that he did not dare to offend the royal family because of the current situation, so he had to make such compromises to stabilize Li Yun, so he frowned and said displeasedly: "The parents' orders, the matchmaker's words, how can they make the final decision on marriage matters themselves?
?You don’t have to worry about this, Erlang, unless my father agrees to come to propose marriage, otherwise if the seventh brother entangles Xiuzhu in the future, I will personally break his legs!"
Fang Jun was speechless and said helplessly: "Okay, you are His Highness the Prince, you have the final say."
He doesn't care much about Li Yun and the Langya Wang family behind him. Although Li Yun is a bit of a jerk, he has shown a caring attitude in the past and has a deep love for Xiuzhu. If they are in love, it doesn't matter what he is.
Neither prince nor beggar will interfere.
Gu Qiang/span Moreover, the reason why Langya Wang family has been in such a downturn recently has something to do with the fact that he went south and turned Jiangdong upside down...
Li Yun did not dare to say anything in front of the prince and the king of Wei. He was frustrated and continued to sit down, feeling uncomfortable all over, so he found an excuse and fled in despair.
Not long after, guests came to the door one after another.
Fang Jun left the two highnesses in the main hall and went out to greet the guests at the main door. In a short time, there were a lot of guests.
In addition to several highnesses, Li Daozong and Ma Zhou, two important ministers who had a close friendship with Fang Jun, came. Xiao Yu and Cen Wenwen were not among the invitees, but Cen Changqian came to the door... How dare Cen Changqian come to Fang's house?
Do you treat yourself as a guest? Obediently accompany Fang Jun and greet the guests at the main entrance, acting like a junior.
With his different status, standing here inevitably makes people think: Is it Cen Changqian's own idea, or is he here on behalf of Cen Wenwen?
There were not many guests, and they were all close friends of Fang Jun. It was said that it was a banquet for guests, but in fact it should be called a "family banquet", but the meaning of showing off one's connections to others is self-evident...
Fang Jun was chatting and laughing with everyone in the main hall. From time to time he would tell a dirty joke, which made the whole hall burst into laughter. The atmosphere was very lively.
Before the banquet started, the disciples came to report that Zhang Xingcheng, the new official minister, came to visit...
Li Taiqi said: "Why did you invite this person?"
Fang Jun spread his hands and said: "This is a family banquet. We just sit around the table and have a lively drink. We don't have to worry too much about each other. How can a humble minister invite those unrelated people? But since we are guests, we treat them as guests.
The minister went to see if the official minister had prepared a large profit. If the gift was shallow, he would be driven away."
Everyone was speechless. Everyone was here, how could they be driven away?
Fang Jun apologized, left the table and came to the main entrance. He saw Zhang Xingcheng in regular clothes standing inside the door looking around. When he saw Fang Jun coming to greet him, he clicked his tongue and exclaimed: "After all, he is the richest person in the world."
The God of Wealth, the architectural style and magnificence of this mansion are comparable to those thousand-year-old mansions that Shandong aristocratic families are proud of. They can only be compared to the royal palaces."
Fang Jun stepped forward to receive the gift, looked at Zhang Xingcheng who returned the gift, and said with a half-smile, "Does Zhang Shangshu think that I won't evict guests?"
Coming uninvited is a bad guest...
He has a yin and yang attitude as soon as he comes up, and he is not a good person.
Zhang Xingcheng laughed loudly and ordered his servants to bring the congratulations to him, saying very familiarly: "When I first heard about Yue Duke Wen Ju's joy, although he had not received an invitation, he came shamelessly, prepared a few small gifts, and asked for a glass of wine.
The Duke of Yue won't even accept gifts, right?"
Now it is a foregone conclusion that the crown prince of the East Palace will be deposed. Judging from the reaction of everyone in the East Palace, they have already laid down and stopped struggling. Under such circumstances, Fang Jun, who was originally regarded by His Majesty as a wing of the East Palace and must seize military power, will instead become an official of the East Palace.
As a representative, he was treated favorably by His Majesty, in order to express the emperor's great kindness and appease the hearts of the officials in the East Palace.
Coupled with Fang Jun's illustrious achievements in the past and the strong influence on both the military and the government, it is foreseeable that when the prince is deposed, Fang Jun is very likely to directly enter the central government and become the prime minister... At this time, let's light up the cold stove.
, is still necessary.
Of course, the way you get along with others is very important. Now that Fang Jun is being suppressed and his status is different from before, it is a great honor for him to be able to come to congratulate him in person. He has to hit him when it is time to hit him, so as not to let this "stick" know what he is doing.
As the new Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he ranks first among the six departments. He is backed by an aristocratic family in Shandong, and he has a strong reputation in the court...
However, contrary to his expectation, Fang Jun did not show the enthusiasm he should have, and the smile on his face was a little playful: "Although etiquette is light and affection is heavy, the weight of the gift represents the attitude. If Zhang Shangshu is really a 'little gift', I will
It is inevitable to think that Zhang Shangshu has contempt in his heart, and he might get angry and drive people away... Come, let's take a look at the gifts Zhang Shangshu brought."
Zhang Xingcheng looked shocked. He rushed to the door to congratulate him, but this guy didn't appreciate it at all?
He was also a little panicked. The gift he brought was considered valuable, but for Fang Jun, who was the richest man in the world, what gift was not a "little gift" in his eyes?
How will you deal with yourself if you lower your face and drive people away...
