Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2817 Dismembering the Japanese Kingdom
Aristocratic families in ancient times have long understood the principle of "don't put all your eggs in one basket". Among them, the most well-known one is the Zhuge family in Langya during the Three Kingdoms...

For aristocratic families, merits and interests are important, but what is more important is inheritance. How to pass on the nobles and family blood from generation to generation is what every family has tirelessly pursued since its birth. matter.

In order to inherit, sometimes even the righteousness of the nation can be discarded, and there are countless ways to avoid disasters overseas.

Although Fang Xuanling used to be the prime minister, but now he has left the center, he is not as well aware of the turmoil in the court as before. Naturally, it is difficult to understand the tense situation from it, but seeing him who is the most appreciative His son made such an almost pessimistic judgment, but he was able to accept it quickly and make suggestions.

"Where does my son plan to rent a port in Wa Kingdom?"

Since it is chosen as a place for the family to avoid disaster, it is natural to proceed with caution, and the most important thing is to avoid areas with prosperous population and prosperous economy.

Fang Jundao: "In the area near the sea of ​​Musashi Kingdom, which belongs to the Dongguo region in Wa Kingdom, the population is small, mostly Ainu people, but the plains are vast, the Ne River flows into the bay, the water is abundant, the land is fertile, and there are good natural ports. It is a treasure land of geomantic omen suitable for development and reproduction."

This is actually the later Tokyo area, with the vast and flat Kanto Plain and excellent ports, it is easy to develop agriculture and commerce.

It's just that now that the Suga family has stolen the throne of the emperor, and the Emperor Tianmu and the Hairen are finished, it is naturally impossible to set up the Suzuka Pass, not break through, and love to pass the pass. Naturally, there is no so-called "Kanto" and "Kanxi". There is also a high probability that the names "Edo" will not appear in the future...

But history has changed, but the mountains and rivers can't be changed. The flat and fertile Kanto Plain is really the best place for colonization. A little development will surely attract a large number of Ainu, Japanese, and Tang people to settle there.It's just that most of the Wa country is now barren, and there are only a few Ainu people living in the Kanto Plain.

In fact, because gold, silver and copper minerals have been mined in various parts of the country, a large number of rich merchants from the Tang Dynasty have already arrived in the country one after another. , the rich nutrients deposited after the volcanic eruption, farming is also very productive.

With the passage of waterways and the prosperity of sea trade, the powerful and merchants in Datang have already set their sights overseas.After all, the land of China has been developed for more than a thousand years. Most of the plains have been reclaimed, and many shallow mineral deposits have also been mined. Rich?
In particular, although this part of the income still needs to be taxed, and the tax rate is not low, it is impossible for the imperial court to know the output of every place, and it can only adopt the method of estimation and collect some symbolic taxes. This makes the profits of merchants and aristocratic families reach an incredible level.

……

The father and son chatted, and suddenly forgot the time.

By the time some general details were discussed, it was already dark outside, and it was almost evening.

Fang Xuanling rubbed her sore waist: "In the spring of next year, you will tidy up the academy that was originally located on the banks of the Wusong River, and take Fang Shu, Fang You, and a group of students to the south of the Yangtze River for your father in the name of traveling. If you live there for three to five years, others may not be suspicious."

Fang Jun nodded his head and said: "It's just that, it's going to be hard for my father."

After all, I felt a little sorry in my heart. If he hadn't firmly supported Li Chengqian, but had taken a spectatorial attitude, then relying on Fang Xuanling's status and his Fang Jun's meritorious deeds would be enough to protect himself. How about the Fang family.

As a result, because of his own political ideas, the whole family fell into crisis, and his father, who was over sixty years old, had to leave his hometown and work hard to protect the blood of the family...

Fang Xuanling didn't take it seriously, and said indifferently: "A man stands in the world, and he must have some ideals and pursuits. My son is very talented and has lofty aspirations. How can he follow the trend like ordinary people like that? So the ambition in my heart is beneficial to the country and the people, and the name will last forever, no matter how big the sacrifice is."

Fang Jun said solemnly: "Son, I would like to be taught!"

Fang Xuanling looked at the son in front of him who was becoming more and more mature, with a short mustache growing on his lips, and who was becoming more and more imposing, with a demeanor of inner strength and divine light, and he was very pleased from the bottom of his heart.

Since ancient times, those who have achieved great things have not only had amazing talents and perseverance, but also sacrifices without fear.

How many people can foresee the crisis that will happen dozens of years later, and correct and avoid it without hesitation? Looking at the world, how many people can do it?

This can be called a national scholar.

If you have a son like this, what more can you ask for?
The safety of the family is nothing compared to that...

……

Back in the backyard, each room has already held candles.

When Fang Jun entered the hall, he saw Princess Gaoyang wearing light clothes. Obviously, her hair was curled up high after taking a bath, revealing a slender neck and crystal-clear auricles. Shu and Fang You climbed up and down on her knees without resting for a moment, Wu Meiniang, Jin Shengman, Xiao Shu'er, Qiao'er and all the maids sat beside her.

Seeing Fang Jun walking in, all the girls got up together, gathered their skirts and saluted.

Fang Jun returned the salute, and the two sons had already come running over, each hugging his leg, shouting "Daddy, hug".

Fang Jun laughed, picked up the two sons one by one in each hand, and kissed the children's tender cheeks respectively, which made the two boys giggle and dance happily.

When they were seated separately, Princess Gao Yang smiled and said angrily: "Other families have grandchildren but not children, but our husband is different. If he continues to be pampered like this, he must give out two more 'sticks'. Son In front of you, you still have to be stricter."

Whether it is "carrying grandchildren but not children", or "strict father and loving mother", they are all Chinese education methods that have existed since ancient times, and Fang Jun disagrees.

He firmly believes that communication with children is more important. Rather than forcing children to do what, it is far better to teach them why to do what.

But at the moment, he was happy and happy, so he naturally wouldn't argue with Princess Gao Yang about the education method, and asked with a smile: "What did you just talk about, so happy?"

Xiao Shu'er, whose belly was bulging like a ball, covered her mouth and smiled, "I'm talking about His Highness holding a sword in his hand, and the beauty saving the hero!"

Wu Meiniang smiled at her, the daughter of the Xiao family's legitimate daughter is usually calm and peaceful, but she also has a mischievous side.

Jin Shengman, on the other hand, looked at Princess Gaoyang like a little girl, her eyes were full of adoring little stars, this girl has a very wild temper...

Princess Gao Yang covered her lips and smiled reservedly, her beautiful eyes turned around, she pretended to be angry and said: "Sister Shu'er, how can you say such a thing, our lord is a famous general of the Tang Dynasty who is brave and invincible, if such a statement is spread, I'm afraid It’s to disappoint those girls who sing ‘Dongfeng night puts flowers and thousands of trees’ in Pingkangfang, and their hearts are broken... Hee hee!”

Wu Meiniang and Xiao Shu'er pursed their lips and smiled, but Jin Shengman looked confused: "Didn't it be said that those oiran girls in Pingkangfang are afraid to avoid our husband, even if they spend a lot of money to stay overnight?"

Fang Jun's face darkened suddenly, and he scolded: "There is a child here, how can you talk about such an ugly thing?"

Gao Yang, Wu Meimei, and Xiao Shu'er couldn't bear it any longer, they laughed so loudly, Jin Shengman looked blank, what can these two children understand?

Fang Jun was very angry.

Since ancient times, anyone who has some talent for Ci Fu has been welcomed by the oiran fans in the willow alley of the brothel. If anyone can get a Ci Fu and sing it all over the world, his value will double immediately. Therefore, for those scholars with amazing talents, Even those who are self-proclaimed and self-recommended pillow seats are flocking to them.

But Fang Jun didn't get this treatment at all.

Because almost every time he went to the brothel, no matter what his original intention was, there would be a big fight in the end, which made the girls in Pingkang Fang love and fear him, and avoided him.

This matter has long been passed on as a joke by the people of Chang'an. Even the officials in the court would joke in front of Fang Jun from time to time. How can Fang Jun, who is a famous prostitute, not depressed?
Even if the young master plagiarizes shamelessly, the difference in treatment can't be that big...
