As an emperor, he is not afraid of your love for money, your love for officials, or your love for beautiful women. As long as you ask for something, he can reward you and use you for his own use. On the contrary, if you are a person with no desires and high moral character,
If you can become a saint, what can he do to control you?
Since he can't control you, how can he dare to use you?
If you look at history, you will know that emperors like treacherous and sycophantic people, but they are not very interested in honest and upright officials. This is the reason...
Fang Xuanling was stunned and speechless.
My son is really a monster. At such a young age, he can actually realize the highest level of mental skills in the officialdom?
Fang Xuanling clicked his tongue, realizing that he actually had nothing to teach his son, and finally asked: "You will transport the wealth seized from the pirates back to Chang'an, but you will distribute it to the nobles who originally sent the generals."
Qi family?"
Fang Jun nodded and said, "Yes, you have to keep your word."
Fang Xuanling shook his head and said: "This is not appropriate. Now that all the vassal kings have returned to the capital, as expected, the fight for the heir apparent will stir up trouble again. Those noble families who dispatched their generals are all with
As someone who is close to the prince, if you do this, wouldn't it make outsiders think that you are helping the prince to win over people's hearts? As ministers, the wisest thing for us to do in the fight for the throne is to stay out of the matter. We only have His Majesty in our eyes and hearts, and whatever His Majesty says will be done.
What, otherwise it will be easy to fall into the wrong camp and lose more than the gain. And now that the title of crown prince has been decided, we, as ministers, should obey the king's orders."
This is indeed a word of advice - no matter who is vying for the crown prince, we can just stand and watch. Since the emperor has decided on the title of crown prince, then we will stand by the crown prince's side, but we cannot express our support unlimitedly!
Fang Jun naturally understands this truth, and has always had a clear-cut stance on the dispute over the throne - Emperor, whoever you appoint as the crown prince will be the crown prince. If you don't appoint him, then there will be no crown prince. We will treat everyone equally!
Fang Jun then smiled and said: "Father misunderstood. In fact, I intend to donate His Royal Highness the Prince's share to His Majesty as military expenses for the future Eastern Expedition..."
Who is Fang Xuanling?
After just a slight turn in his mind, he suddenly realized it and couldn't help but raise his thumb: "It's a counter-intuitive plan! If the prince really can rule the world in the future, you should be remembered!"
Fang Jun blinked: "We are not doing this for His Royal Highness, but to make His Majesty feel comfortable..."
The father and son looked at each other and laughed.
Fang Xuanling was very happy. After he became an official, there would be someone in the Fang family who could support him. How could he not be happy?
Lao Fang waved his hand: "Let's eat!"
*****
The back house of the house.
Princess Gaoyang crossed her arms and stared angrily at the radiant and charming Wu Meiniang.
"Okay, I asked you to pick up Erlang, but you are so lucky that you actually ate it secretly? Something is wrong. When Erlang came back, the master asked him to go to the central hall to talk. Where did you find the time to eat it secretly? Oops, could it be on the carriage?
…”
Princess Gao Yang widened her beautiful eyes and said in disbelief: "Wu Mei Niang, you are so courageous. On the carriage...what happened?"
Wu Meiniang was so embarrassed that she almost wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in but couldn't get out...
He lowered his head and looked at his toes, saying nothing.
What to say?
No matter how you say it, you ate it secretly...
Princess Gaoyang is not really angry, but she is dissatisfied with Wu Meiniang for "stealing food according to the order". I am the wife of the wife, okay? Even if this kind of thing happens in turn, it must be my turn first, right?
When the little beauty was just getting married, her man suddenly left home. How could she not live like a year with a heart full of itching? Now it's fine, the man is finally back, but before he even kissed me and expressed my love, he was beaten by the little girl.
I ate it secretly...
Princess Gaoyang didn't know what to say, and she didn't know how to curse. She just kept saying over and over again: "Shameless and flirtatious! You're a nymphomaniac when you see a man, aren't you?"
Wu Meiniang rolled her eyes and said in a low voice: "What's the worst... I'll just give up my husband to Your Highness tonight."
Princess Gao Yang snorted: "I am a great lady, do you still want me to give in?"
After saying that, he glanced at Wu Meiniang up and down, thinking of a way to punish her.
Her Royal Highness the Princess said: "Aren't you greedy? Then you can go to bed tonight and serve me and my consort!"
Wu Meiniang suddenly had a bitter look on her face. She understood what Princess Gaoyang meant. She made it so that she could see it but couldn't eat it... It was too cruel. Isn't that torture?
But when it comes to IQ, Wu Meiniang can indeed crush Princess Gaoyang. As soon as her mind changed, she pretended to be aggrieved and said: "I just obey Your Highness..."
But I was thinking in my heart, how fierce was Lang Jun in the car just now, could you, Your Highness, be able to withstand it alone? It was impossible to say that you would have to beg me to support you in the end...
*****
The family had a lunch, and when the Fang family returned to the back house, they changed into a new set of clothes under the sad eyes of their wives and concubines, and prepared to go to the palace to see His Majesty Li Er. Since he was returning to Beijing to report on his work, he naturally wanted to see him as soon as possible.
Emperor, there is no time to delay.
A set of Shu embroidered brocade robes is worn on the mountain, making the figure look even more upright.
The love in the eyes of his wife and concubine was undisguised. Fang Jun was also in a state of excitement and wished he could have sex right away. However, he could not delay the meeting with the emperor, so he had to use his hands and mouth to make the two beauties messy and panting. He said boldly:
"Wait until I come back to take care of you!"
After leaving the palace, he did not ride in a carriage, but led a group of soldiers on horseback through the city and went straight to the palace.
When the common people on the road saw this group of menacing knights, they were frightened and hurried to the side. They waited until the people and horses were gone before whispering to each other.
"Hey, why do I look like the knight on that horse looks like Fang Erlang?"
"Brother, your news is too late, isn't it? It's really Fang Erlang, it's true!"
"Hey, did you know that Fang Erlang had just returned to Beijing in the morning, and he whipped the Dou family's children severely and even broke one of their legs?"
"Which Dou family?"
"Which Dou family is there? Of course it's Empress Taimu's Dou family!"
"oh!"
"Are the children of the Dou family stupid? Why are you provoking Fang Er when you have nothing to do? Isn't that looking for death?"
"Who says it's not the case? The Dou family must be used to being arrogant. This time they offended the second housekeeper and got retribution. He deserves it!"
The common people talked among themselves, and almost no one asked why Fang Er beat up the Dou family children, and they did not even say a word of grievances on behalf of the Dou family children. All the people said, "The Dou family children deserve it," "You bring it upon yourself," and "It's your fault when you have nothing to do."
What are you doing, Fang Er?" Such words.
Fang Jun has a good reputation among the people, and although his reputation as a stick spreads throughout Guanzhong, every time he takes action, it is the children of the aristocratic family who cause harm. Even if ordinary people accidentally offend Fang Jun, most of them just laugh it off and do not care.
Calculate.
Because of this, as long as Fang Jun takes action to punish any of the children of the aristocratic family, there must be a reason for him to be punished...
I wonder if Dou Dewei has heard the discussion among the people. If he had, he might have to vomit three liters of blood.
We just said a few words to your concubine, how about it become a heinous crime?
When he arrived at the Zhuque Gate, Fang Jun dismounted and saw the imperial guards guarding the gate. He handed over the official documents and asked for an audience.
The imperial guard respectfully asked Fang Jun to wait a moment, and then quickly walked into the inner room to report.
After a while, Wang De, the head of the chamberlain, came out in person.
Fang Jun quickly clasped his fists and said: "How dare you trouble Mr. Wang? You can just send any of your disciples here at will. I am flattered by your boss!"
Wang De said with a smile: "You wretched old slave? Who can the general manager of our family control? You are the real general manager, in charge of all the troops, and you are powerful outside the region! Speaking of your Fang Erlang, who in the civil and military circles of the entire dynasty can't do it?
Thumbs up?"
Fang Jun smiled bitterly and said: "Come on, the manager of farts has already been masturbated..."
Wang De said with a smile: "If you masturbate, just masturbate. What's so strange about being so high in the sky? If you ask me, you still have to stay in front of His Majesty. With His Majesty protecting you, who dares to make trouble with you openly and secretly?"
?”
Fang Jun smelled it.
This old eunuch is the person that His Majesty Li Er most trusts. Although he does not have the overwhelming power of those eunuchs in later generations, he knows His Majesty Li Er's thoughts best.
In this way, does His Majesty Li Er intend to arrange a position for himself in the court?
Fang Jun said in a low voice: "I got some red sandalwood from overseas during this trip. They are all high-quality materials. I will send someone back to Manager Wang to deliver some to his house. There is not much more, but it is still enough to be used as longevity wood.
…”
There is no way, people these days value the things after death the most. If you give him a mansion, it is far less impressive than giving him a set of top-quality red sandalwood materials. So Fang Jun has now developed a bad habit of giving coffins to people.
Problem...
However, things are rare and expensive. The red sandalwood wood on Tanxiang Island is very large, but it has to be shipped back for high-end sales. This stuff is in short supply in the Tang Dynasty, so it can easily fetch a sky-high price, and it is of high quality even if you give it away.
If it's all over the streets, it won't be valuable...
