Fang Jun could ignore Li Tai's presence, while Cen Wenwen was smooth and smooth in dealing with things. He only maintained enough respect for His Highness the King of Wei, but not much awe. During the dinner, they talked and laughed very freely.
But Ma Zhou had some opinions about Li Tai.
Ma Zhou is a man with an upright temper. In his view, although Fang Jun is a dandy, he is forthright and straightforward, and they get along well with him. King Li Tai of Wei is obviously much more exaggerated. Although this man is talented, he never wants to be down-to-earth and both
He was arrogant and a little drunk during the dinner. He criticized the policy strategies of Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others in a pretentious manner, with the intention of giving some pointers to the country.
Ma Zhou couldn't stand it.
Both Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui contributed the most to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty today. Moreover, these two people were always honest and upright, and devoted themselves to serving the country without seeking personal gain. They were figures that Ma Zhou admired greatly.
Li Tai criticized and ridiculed him so much that the upright Ma Zhou just threw up his sleeves and left...
As soon as he left, the banquet naturally broke up unhappy.
After sending Cen Wenwen and Ma Zhou outside the village, Fang Jun turned around with a gloomy black face and a sullen aura.
"If His Highness was not a guest in a certain home and someone had to take care of the hospitality, His Highness would definitely be lying sideways in the snowdrift outside the yard at this time!" With these harsh words, Fang Jun returned to the backyard.
Princess Jinyang held a piece of rabbit meat and chewed it until her mouth was full of oil. The little girl Bingxue was smart and naturally knew that her brother had made everyone unhappy, so she gloated: "Brother Qingque, you have to be careful! You have been scolding me just now.
Uncle, you have angered your brother-in-law, be careful he beats you!"
Li Tai also had some regrets.
He really didn't have any opinion on Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui. On the contrary, he respected these two people very much. But he drank a little too much wine and his head was a little dizzy, so he couldn't control his mouth and offended everyone in a muddle-headed way.
But can His Highness the King of Wei actually recognize someone who is bowing his head?
He said harshly: "I just said it, so what can I do? He, Fang Jun, only dares to hit people when he is tired of living! But then again, little sister, you don't want to talk about a brother-in-law. We haven't even gotten married yet. Isn't your sister-in-law
Are you a bit spineless? Brother, that sounds awkward to me! Look at your dog-legged appearance, can you tell the difference between the inside and the outside? If the second roommate asks you to warm the bed, I’m afraid you won’t even refute, and you’ll be useless..."
I drank a little too much, and I didn’t keep my mouth shut. I really talked about everything...
Princess Jinyang didn't know whether she didn't understand or did it on purpose. She said nonchalantly: "Then just warm the bed and call me brother-in-law. What's the matter? If my sister hadn't married her brother-in-law, Sizi would have asked his father to let his brother-in-law be his brother-in-law."
The son-in-law..."
"puff……"
Li Tai drank the wine up to his throat in one sip and spit out all the words he heard.
*****
The cold wind howled, and the East Palace became increasingly deserted and lonely.
This was supposed to be a magnificent palace where civil and military officials from all over the dynasty came to visit and offer their services. However, at this time, the palace was deserted and no one cared about it.
Prince Zhan Shi Yu Zhining and King Li Tai of Wei were assassinated one after another. In addition, the internal servants of the King of Wei were coerced by outsiders, and they in turn reported the misconduct of King Li Tai of Wei... These things happened one after another, although they seemed to have no clue.
, but all of them secretly pointed to the East Palace.
What is even more strange is that the rumors about Yichu that had been circulating in the market in the past, instead of taking this opportunity to intensify, have completely disappeared.
Therefore, everyone believed that there must be an extremely powerful force suppressing public opinion and preventing the court's policies from being influenced by public opinion. And besides the emperor, who could have such a powerful force?
Everyone fell silent and waited silently for the edict to be issued from the Tai Chi Palace and spread throughout the world.
Depose the prince...
In such a situation, it is natural for the prince to be ignored.
At such a critical juncture, who dares to come rashly and arouse His Majesty's suspicion? You know, there are still pending assassinations of two villages, and the mastermind behind it has not yet been found. I believe His Majesty the Emperor will not mind finding a scapegoat.
These two black pots.
No matter what evidence is mentioned, politics never needs the truth, only interests.
As long as it is in the interests of His Majesty the Emperor, anyone in the world may become a murderer...
Of course, there are some people who don't care about any interests.
In their eyes, glory and wealth are like dung compared to brotherhood. Life is fleeting and wealth is fleeting, but only friendship can last forever...
Du He is such a person.
It is true that this gentleman is lazy, not enterprising, a playboy, uneducated and incompetent... It can be said that he is useless in every aspect. He is the same on his own. He will never follow others for the rise of King Wei, let alone add insult to injury for the decline of the prince.
.
In the Li Zheng Hall, Prince Li Chengqian sat on the soft floor, looking at Du He in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Facing a desperate situation, the reserve position is not guaranteed, but only Du He can risk the disapproval of the world. This kind of friendship is particularly precious.
Crown Princess Su walked out of the inner hall, dragging a wooden tray with her bare hands, walked to Du He, placed it on the coffee table, and said with a gentle smile: "Brother-in-law, please have some tea."
Du He quickly stood up and saluted, "Thank you, Madam."
Su Shi said warmly: "We are all one family, why do we need to see each other like this? While you brothers are chatting, I will go to the back hall and ask the ladies to bring some cherries."
Du He asked in astonishment: "Where do the cherries come from at this time of year?"
Su Shi said: "Since the second house sent it, in the entire Tang Dynasty, his greenhouse is the only one that can grow fresh fruits in this cold winter. It seems that there is nothing that his family cannot grow."
Du He suddenly realized.
Looking at the Tang Dynasty, even the royal greenhouses, no matter the size or the number of varieties of crops grown, cannot be compared to the greenhouses of the Fang family. Nowadays, the homes of the noble families of the Tang Dynasty have to purchase a large amount of greenhouses almost every day.
Of course, the fruits and vegetables produced in the family greenhouse are rare and expensive. If Fang Er didn't ask these nobles to kill them ruthlessly, then he wouldn't be Fang Er...
Su nodded dignifiedly at Du He and retreated to the back hall.
In fact, her impression of Du He had not been very good all along, but because the prince was very close to his sister, Princess Chengyang, she had to give Du He some favor and did not dissuade the prince from staying away from Du He.
Dutch.
The Su family came from a wealthy family, and her ancestors were all high-ranking officials in the former Sui Dynasty. She naturally looked down on the dissolute Du He. But what she didn't expect was that the prince was surrounded by people and seemed to be abandoned by the world, but he could only
Fang Jun and Du He, the two major dandies in Chang'an City, never changed their original intention and never gave up.
Although Fang Jun doesn't seem to be close to the prince, he has always been the same. When the prince gained power, Fang Jun just stayed away from him, and often ordered his servants to bring some fresh fruits and vegetables. And Su knew that this treatment was not only
There is a prince, and many ministers in the court who have good relations with the Fang family can receive gifts from Fang Jun. But the rare thing is that now that the prince is about to be deposed, Fang Jun has gone his own way and has not given anything to him.
Reduced due to the prince's loss of power...
He can be considered a thoughtful person.
After Su left, Du He sat down and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he was a dandy, he was not shameless. Naturally, he noticed that the Crown Princess Su seemed to dislike him, and Du He also felt quite uncomfortable in front of the Crown Princess, who was born in a noble family and was strict about etiquette.
On the contrary, he and Prince Li Chengqian were much more casual.
"Why are you doing this? I'm not that fragile yet, and I haven't reached the time when I need your comfort. As long as there is still a chance, I won't give up easily. On the other hand, you are already in a difficult situation. If you suffer the consequences because of Gu again,
How can I find peace in my heart when I feel wronged and called lonely?"
Li Chengqian sighed.
After Du Ruhui's death, the situation of the Du family was not ideal.
The eldest son Du Gou inherited the title, but he was a strict man and had limited talents. Du He acted recklessly. If he hadn't thought about Du Ruhui's love and the emperor's care, he would have been beaten long ago, and he would have dared to roam freely.
Causing trouble everywhere?
Nowadays, the closer you get to yourself, the easier it is to be ostracized by snobs. It is not surprising that the world is accustomed to applauding others and suppressing others.
Du He also sighed and said: "I don't even want to come, but why do you ask your girl to worry about you? You have to let me come. What can I do?"
Li Chengqian laughed.
This kid is like this. He is obviously worried about his own situation and wants to express his attitude, but he has to say it so out of tune.
This point is similar to that of Fang Jun. The two of them can be regarded as the same species...
Du He looked around and saw no one around him, so he leaned forward slightly, looked at Li Chengqian, and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, are you just sitting there waiting to die?"
Li Chengqian's heart skipped a beat and he looked at Du He in disbelief.
