Fang Xuanling rushed home and angrily ordered people to go to the farm outside the city to summon Fang Jun back.
As soon as they met, Lao Fang scolded him: "You careless thing, why don't you just stay at home? You have to go live in the village! Just live there. You should cultivate your mind and read a lot. You have to do it."
What a mess! Are you okay now? If His Majesty makes a mistake, our family will be in disaster immediately!"
The matter was so important that it affected the safety of the family. This time, even his mother Lu, who had always been supportive of Fang Jun, also followed suit.
"You kid, you are about to get married, and you can't rest for a while! It's not easy to get an official position, and you have to go through all the troubles. Why can't you learn from your father, be low-key and do things safely? Although
Your father is a bit pedantic, but we don’t expect him to be very capable. If he has an official rank, how can he just hang around and wait for death?"
After listening to the first half of the sentence, Fang Xuanling was very happy that his wife finally turned to me. But after hearing one sentence, her face turned completely dark...
I, Zuopushe, the dignified minister, was once the prime minister, and you said that I was left to eat and wait to die?
It really makes me angry!
Fang Xuanling rarely yelled at his wife: "You mother-in-law, how long have you been here, and you are still messing around here? Do you have to wait until your precious son has ruined your family and caused all your relatives and friends to die peacefully before you are satisfied?"
?”
"You are so angry..." Mrs. Lu was a little stunned. Even though she was shouting, Fang Xuanling was still a little scared when she really got angry...
Mrs. Lu then pointed the finger at Fang Jun and scolded: "You are such a big man, how come you don't have any peace of mind? You bastard, I shouldn't have given birth to you in the first place..."
Fang Jun sat upright, quite speechless.
Your Majesty Li Er, are you too idle to join in the fun?
There is no one more valuable than you in the whole world. If I get a few hairs injured by this bump, it will be a big sin for us!
Seeing that my mother was talking more and more enthusiastically, I couldn't help but mutter: "How did I know that Your Majesty would also join in the fun?"
Mrs. Lu's eyebrows rose: "Oh, you dare to talk back, right? I can't beat you to death..." After saying that, he got up and looked for a feather duster.
"Okay!"
Fang Xuanling drank and covered her forehead with worry: "Can't we make more trouble? The matter has come to this, even if you beat him to death, it will not help. For now, the only thing is to be careful in everything, Zhuangzi is inside.
Everything must be arranged properly outside and in, and no mistakes are allowed!”
"My child knows what to do, please don't worry, father." Fang Jun responded quickly.
Fang Xuanling was troubled, sighed, and said helplessly: "Please pray to God and Buddha for safety. Fortunately, this time, your Majesty will mobilize the Shenji Camp and Hou Junji's Zuowei Camp together, and strive to
Ensure safety and there won’t be any accidents.”
That's what he said, but Fang Xuanling always felt a little uneasy in his heart. He vaguely felt that something was going to happen. But he thought carefully and tried to catch that thought, but he found nothing. He thought in vain.
It hurts, but there is no solution.
Fang Jun looked at his father with a frown on his face, the fatigue on his face, and the whiteness on his temples becoming more and more. He asked with some distress: "Dad, last time my son mentioned to you that you asked to become an official, please consider it."
How's it going?"
To be honest, Fang Jun always clamored for a purple robe from His Majesty Li Er. It was not that he was obsessed with officials, it was just an attitude. For the emperor, a minister who was greedy for money and loved power, He is the most ideal minister. If he had a little more ability, he would be perfect.
If a minister has outstanding abilities, can always do things that others cannot do, and is not greedy for money or power, then that is the thing that makes the emperor unable to sleep...
You don’t need anything, are you a saint?
He is either a saint or a treacherous person. His intentions are not trivial, so he has to hide his desires...
Fang Xuanling picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and said: "Do you think dad doesn't want to become an official? It's just that His Majesty is currently planning the eastward expedition to Goguryeo, and there are so many things going on. If I ask for an official position at this time, It is equivalent to completely putting aside this situation. How can Your Majesty allow it? No way, it will also anger Your Majesty. The time has not yet come."
He really wants to become an official, and Gao Lao will go home. First he can drink tea and read, and then he can also go to the college in Lishan to teach students, and spend his free time traveling around the mountains and rivers. How comfortable and carefree would it be? Since His Majesty was still the King of Qin, He took refuge there, and has always been His Majesty's most trusted right-hand man, taking care of various things. He was already exhausted and a little bored.
So what if the power is overwhelming? What if you are under one person?
Fang Xuanling was not a person with too many ambitions. Now that he had reached the first rank and had earned hereditary titles for his descendants, he did not have too many pursuits.
But having been by His Majesty’s side for so many years, I know His Majesty’s obsessions clearly. To conquer Goguryeo, to complete the hegemonic ambition that Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty failed to complete, and to expand the territory of the Tang Dynasty to Liaodong, can be said to be His Majesty’s greatest wish in this life.
If he gives up his choice at this time, His Majesty will be furious!
For now, I can only persevere and work hard to help His Majesty prepare for the Eastern Expedition and return home. Let’s talk about it later...
Fang Jun is naturally not a novice who doesn't understand anything. When Fang Xuanling said this, he knew what his father was in trouble and had no other choice.
*****
After being scolded by his parents, he returned to the village depressingly, and happened to meet Li Tai strolling in the yard.
"What a good thing you did!" As soon as Fang Jun saw this "fat bird", he was furious. If this guy hadn't caused trouble and set up a bet, how could he have invited His Majesty Li Er? If he caused trouble, But you are enjoying yourself and nothing has happened. Where is the justice of God?
Li Tai is a smart man. As soon as he saw Fang Jun's dark face getting darker, he understood what he meant and smiled proudly: "Fang Er, please pay attention to the rules for me. Fortunately, we are also the prince, so in front of us Do you know that you need to use honorifics in front of me?"
Fang Jun said angrily: "I respect your head! Do you think you are idle? What are you doing to cause such a big storm? Now it's better. Your Majesty has been summoned! I tell you, in case your Majesty If something unexpected happens here, my second roommate will not be able to recover, and you, Li Tai, will have to walk around without food! Give me back to the prince? If you don’t be regarded as one of those treacherous men with ulterior motives who conspire to usurp the throne, I will kill you with three feet of white silk and a glass of poisonous wine. It’s an advantage for you!”
If an accident really happens, Fang Er, the "landlord", will naturally not be able to escape, but Li Tai, the instigator of the incident, will still have no good consequences.
Who knows if you did this intentionally to lure His Majesty here, but you had some ulterior motives hidden behind it?
Li Tai snorted: "Who do you think you are? You have the final say? Father, of course, I believe in you! You kid, take care of yourself. If the test fails, losing ten thousand guan will be the next best thing. I, the king, will always be here."
For Gao Yang's sake, I may be able to waive this gambling fee, but if you are laughed at by everyone in the world, Fang Er, you will have a lot of fun!"
Fang Jun sneered: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Looking at the Tang Dynasty and even the whole world, when it comes to knowledge and skills, if a certain Fang Er considers himself second, then no one would dare to say that he is number one! Isn't he just a hot guy?
A balloon? It’s rare and strange. If someone made a glider for you, wouldn’t you be so surprised that the heavens and the gods would bow to you?”
Li Tai was furious: "I will bow to you just because I bow to you? You are really shameless, and you are so thick-skinned that you can be like a city wall! Even if I dare to worship you, how dare you accept it? But then again, is a glider a thing? This is strange
name……"
Fang Jun was too lazy to pay attention to this narcissistic guy. He flicked his sleeves and put on a dark face, leaving Li Tai with his back.
Li Tai sneered: "Pretending to be a ghost, boasting nonsense..."
Just as he was about to turn around and walk away, he suddenly remembered something and raised his voice and asked: "Fang Er, why don't you see your beautiful concubine?"
"Under the plum blossoms in the melon field, I have already sent him away for fear of damaging your highness's reputation." Fang Jun's voice came from afar, but his figure did not stop, he turned a corner and disappeared.
Li Tai was displeased and muttered: "This person is really just a concubine. She is not the wife of the royal family. It is your honor to take notice of me! How dare you hide it? How stingy you are!
…Oh, that’s not right!”
He suddenly thought that in the past few days, he had been walking around in the village, except for a few tall and strong peasant women with big feet, and even a younger maid of the Fang family had never seen him. The second room of the house regarded me as that kind of person.
A slut, a pervert, hiding all the women in the family?
Li Tai was so angry that he jumped on his feet and yelled: "Fang Er, mother! You kid is really bullying me. Who do you think I am?"
But he didn't even want to think about it. How could someone treat you as a good person if you miss him all day long?
