Even though this may be Fang Jun's method to divide the Changsun family, Changsun Huan doesn't care at all! No one wants to be used as a chess piece, but not everyone is qualified to play a chess piece!
As long as you can prove your worth, what's the point of being a chess piece?
As before, you can't even be used as a chess piece. That's the real tragedy...
*****
Deep in the peach forest, a small and quiet lake lies. The water is as clear as a piece of white jade, but it has been dyed pink by the brilliant peach blossoms around it, making it feel like a fairyland.
An antique two-story wooden building stands by the lake.
There are no carved beams or painted pillars, no cornices or brackets, and it is extremely plain and simple. However, the doors are wide and the eaves are high, giving it a free and elegant style.
At this time, the doors and windows of the small building were opened, the tables were placed properly, and the beautiful and graceful maids distributed the prepared food and wine one by one.
Fang Jun and his party had just walked to the front of the building when they saw Wei Wang Li Tai's big white-faced steamed bun-like face sticking out from the window on the second floor. He waved to Fang Jun and Changsun Huan and said, "Why are you two here? Come upstairs quickly.
Just waiting for you to start the party!"
The waiter who was free to welcome guests welcomed the two to the second floor, while the other dandies stayed on the first floor for the banquet.
Wherever there are people, there is a level. Their level is not enough. Even if they are invited, they can only sit on the first floor...
Fang Jun and Changsun Huan went up to the second floor and looked around. There were indeed many familiar people.
This time King Li Tai of Wei was serving wine, perhaps because he knew that this time he went to the land of Wuyue to join the feudal vassal, and that he might not be able to return to Chang'an more than once in his lifetime. In the past, all relatives, friends, old friends, and people with a slight suspicion were all invited.
Now that he left the capital alone, the reserve position has long been a luxury, and the old grudges over the dispute have long since faded away. If he retains a good reputation, he may be able to add a helper to the court in the future, so why not?
At this point, Fang Jun nodded secretly.
Unexpectedly, there was no hope for the reserve position and he left the capital alone. On the contrary, Wei Wang Li Tai was not as domineering and arrogant as before, and he had become more sophisticated in human relations, which is an unexpected achievement. But if he could have mastered this human relations a few years earlier, wouldn't he be this reserve?
Is there still some hope for you?
Shaking his head, he put aside the unrealistic thought of the alarm clock, found an empty seat, and sat down.
Wei King Li Tai waved his hand and said: "Why are you sitting so far away? Come to me and let us have a nice chat."
Fang Jun had no choice but to get up and sit down next to Li Tai amid the envious, jealous and hateful eyes of everyone.
As soon as he sat down, he felt a gaze falling on him, which made him feel uncomfortable all over.
He raised his head to find the source of this gaze, and happened to meet the eyes of a person on the other side of Li Tai.
He has a long and thin face with intense eyes.
It was Kong Zhixuan whom I hadn’t seen for a long time.
Mother! Did you push your wife down? Why are you looking at us like this?
It's just that it's not good to act arrogant in this situation. Fang Jun suppressed his anger, smiled and showed his big white teeth. He looked at Kong Zhixuan and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Brother Kong. I'm disrespectful. I haven't seen you for many days. Are you okay?"
Kong Zhixuan's face was full of disdain, and his tone was cold: "Thank you Erlang for your concern. Although I am older, I must cultivate my moral character and strive for a long life. Erlang, on the other hand, should pay attention to his health. He is a person with excessive liver fire.
Their lifespan is not very long."
King Li Tai of Wei was speechless for a while. Are you saying that you must not let Fang Jun die before him? This Kong Zhixuan is not a peaceful master. You are so old, do you have to be tough every time you meet Fang Jun?
Fang Jun showed no anger at all, as if he didn't understand Kong Zhixuan's words, and said with a smile: "Brother Kong is really kind-hearted, and he cares about my body all the time, which really moved me. I had a drink with Old Master Kong a few days ago, and he
The old man also said that Brother Kong was not motivated and accomplished, and he was deeply regretful. It seems that he was wrong. If he drinks and chats with the old man again in the future, he must tell him that literary talent and military strategy are all false, but character is the real thing.
It's a big deal! Brother Kong is such a kind-hearted person, he is the only one who has promising children and grandchildren. With a son like this, what else can I ask for? If someone can have such a son in the future, he will die without regrets..."
"puff"
"puff"
"puff"
Some people here couldn't help but laugh out loud.
King Wei Li Tai held his forehead with one hand and smiled bitterly. This Fang Jun's mouth is too bad...
These words gave people the misunderstanding that Fang Jun was of the same generation as Kong Yingda, while Kong Zhixuan was just a junior.
If you have a son like this, what more could you ask for... Do you think Kong Zhixuan is your son?
Kong Zhixuan was so angry that his nose was red and his eyes were bloodshot. He wanted to pounce on Fang Jun and bite this hateful boy to death... If he could beat Fang Jun, he would never hesitate at all.
But I can't refute it...
It is true that Fang Jun is young, but it is also true that he and Kong Yingda were once colleagues. If it is true that the two of them drank and chatted in their free time, it is not impossible to say that it is true. Even if it is false, can Kong Zhixuan return?
Is it possible to seek confirmation from my father Kong Yingda?
Do you consider me your son?
It’s so deceiving!
Kong Zhixuan's resentment towards Fang Jun was so deep that it was frozen three feet, not three days of cold!
Kong Zhixuan has always boasted of his outstanding literary talent, but he has never taken Fang Jun seriously. Even if Fang Jun wrote classic poems several times, Kong Zhixuan looked down on him. Even if he had some literary talent, he was still just a dude.
What's the future?
But ever since Fang Jun took office in the Ministry of Rites, every time his father Kong Yingda came home, he would talk about how Fang Jun was excellent here and how he was outstanding there, and how Kong Zhixuan was not as good as Fang Jun. This made the arrogant Kong Zhixuan not angry?
Kong Zhixuan almost exploded with anger and was about to leave the table as soon as he shook his sleeves.
He is no match for him in a fight, and he will be killed in seconds. It seems that quarreling is not possible either. This guy's reputation for being "talented" is not only good at writing poems, he is also very good at swearing. He can do it without even using a single curse word.
Make people so angry that their blood vessels burst...
I've lost face, but I can't make up for it. Is it embarrassing to stay here?
How could Wei King Li Tai let him leave? If Kong Zhixuan was angered by Fang Jun's words and left the table, Li Tai's face would not look good if he told it! Although he was about to leave the capital, Li Tai was a good-looking person, so hurry up
He grabbed Kong Zhixuan and comforted him: "My dear brother, sit down peacefully."
Kong Zhixuan didn't dare to offend Li Tai, so he sat down angrily, turning his head to one side, as if he didn't want to look at Fang Jun.
Li Tai was secretly disappointed...
He originally wanted to take Kong Zhixuan to Wuyue. Kong Zhixuan had a good reputation among the scholars, and as the son of a great scholar like Kong Yingda, he had great influence among the scholars in the world, and he must be able to help him develop his situation.
But who would have thought that this person's performance was extremely disappointing, and he had a restless and frivolous personality, which was not suitable for officialdom at all. If it weren't for Kong Yingda's reputation to control him, he would have been ostracized and had no place to stand...
This man is just a teacher at best. The officialdom is dangerous and he cannot survive.
But Kong Zhixuan is Kong Yingda's son after all, and Li Tai cannot let him leave after being slandered by Fang Jun, otherwise Kong Yingda will blame him, Li Tai...
Li Tai grabbed Kong Zhixuan, turned to look at Fang Jun, and pretended to be angry: "How can Erlang be rude? Brother Kong Shi is older after all, and we should respect him and protect him, so how can we say something rude? Apologize to Brother Kong quickly, otherwise the future will come.
How do you tell Confucius when you see him?"
Everyone present here sighed in their hearts, His Highness the King of Wei treated Fang Jun so kindly!
The words were to ask Fang Jun to apologize, but inside and outside the words were to put him and Fang Jun in the same place. Although it was to give Kong Zhixuan face, it was clearly to alienate Kong Zhixuan.
How virtuous and capable is this boy, that he is so valued by His Highness the King of Wei?
It is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a very good relationship with this boy...
The person who can sit here must be a famous minister, with a good family background, and a good understanding of people's hearts. After everyone was shocked, they suddenly discovered that this person who used to be generous in front of them not only turned around and became a rising star among the scholars of the Tang Dynasty, but also became a rising star among the scholars of the Tang Dynasty.
It is an unparalleled future for the owner...
Everyone secretly paid attention. After returning, they must instruct the family to adjust their strategy towards Fang Jun in the future. It seems that even if Fang Xuanling retires, the Fang family can still stand strong, and may even go further!
With such profound potential, how can we not pay more attention to it?
After Wei King Li Tai said this, the Fang family naturally had to give him face.
He poured a glass of wine on the table in front of him, raised it and said to Kong Zhixuan: "I was careless just now and my words were speechless. However, it was not my intention. I hope Brother Kong Shi will not blame you. I will apologize with wine."
After saying that, drink it all in one gulp.
Wei King Li Tai was very satisfied and looked at Kong Zhixuan.
