Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 4085
The tense situation and unfavorable situation did not make the atmosphere tense. Li Jing has seen all kinds of storms in his life, and he has long been calm about the ups and downs. At this moment, he asked a little excitedly: "I don't know when the reconstruction of the academy will be completed? Old man Those manuscripts have been sorted out and can be used as teaching materials for the academy's lecture hall."

Fame, power, glory and wealth, these things that the world pursues tirelessly, are like passing clouds in the eyes of these outstanding people. If you say that you used to hope to achieve your life ambitions by taking command of the army, now you have already devoted yourself to writing books.

"There is meritorious deeds on the top, followed by meritorious service, and secondly there are words. Although they will not be abandoned for a long time, this is called immortality." I thought that I didn't stand up and swear to support Emperor Gaozu during the Xuanwu Gate change. He has killed countless people and destroyed countless countries. This life has nothing to do with the word "virtue"; although the credit is the highest in the dynasty, the evaluation on the history books may not be true and objective; It has been Li Jing's greatest pursuit to pass it on to later generations.

By the way, I will teach the art of war that I have learned all my life to those generals and captains in the academy. In the future, there will be peaches and plums all over the world, and this life has never been wasted...

Fang Jun poured tea for him, and said with a smile, "Mr. Wei, why rush for a while? It is easy to rebuild the academy, but it will take a long time to gather the former students together again. But don't worry, this academy is not just for us. Shangxin, His Majesty also regards it as the glory of the Zhenguan Dynasty that can last forever, and when it reopens, it will definitely be better than before."

The Guanlong mutiny caused heavy casualties to the students of the academy.

In today's world, the literacy rate and success rate of ordinary people and poor families are appallingly low. If you want to recruit students on a large scale, you can only use your brains from aristocratic families.

Aristocrats from Shandong and Jiangnan are now entering the imperial court, but their positions are not yet clear. It is still unknown what kind of attitude they have towards Zhenguan Academy, which has a lot of traces of the Eastern Palace. It is probably going to fight...

While the two were saying this, a servant outside led a servant inside. The servant greeted the two of them, and then said to Fang Jun, "Your Majesty called the Duke of Yue into the palace to discuss something important."

The two looked at each other, Fang Jun didn't dare to delay, he bid farewell to Li Jing, went out to gather his own soldiers, rode his horse and followed the servants straight into the palace for restraint.

……

In the inner hall of Wude Hall, His Majesty Li Er was leaning on the bed in a moon-white tunic, his complexion was a little pale.

Princess Jinyang knelt on the edge of the bed, and lightly tapped His Majesty Li Er's legs with a pair of pink fists. The girl's slender figure under the palace skirt outlined a beautiful arc. When she saw Fang Jun entering, she immediately looked back and smiled sweetly. Shouted: "Brother-in-law!"

Fang Jun only felt that His Majesty Li Er's gaze was like a knife, and he didn't dare to look at it. He lowered his head and said, "I have seen Your Majesty, I have seen Your Highness."

His Majesty Li Er snorted and said, "You don't need to be polite, just sit down."

"Here."

Fang Jun straightened up, went to the chair by the window and sat down, with only half of his buttocks, not daring to sit down...

His Majesty Li Er was dissatisfied when he saw his daughter continued to knock on his legs: "If it was in the past, you might have already run over to pour tea and prepare snacks now... now you don't care about your brother-in-law, don't you?" Don't you think it's a bit of a cover-up?"

Princess Jinyang blushed a little, acting coquettishly and refusing: "I want to relax my father's muscles and bones more, it's so ugly..."

Fang Jun was confused when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "My minister is not thirsty, I don't know your majesty's urgent call, what orders do you have?"

His Majesty Li Er waved his hand, rushed Princess Jinyang to make tea, and said casually: "I just want to ask your opinion on two things."

Princess Jinyang came down from the edge of the bed, poured a cup of tea briskly and brought it to Fang Jun. With her back to His Majesty Li Er, she blinked at Fang Jun, and silently said "no" with her pink lips. mouth shape, Fang Jun hesitated for a moment before he understood what she meant...but he didn't know what she meant.

As the princess, it is best to avoid suspicion when discussing affairs with the courtiers, let alone matters related to her own, so Princess Jinyang just threatened Fang Jun with a small look, then bowed her skirt and bowed out.

Turning back and closing the door, he quickly turned around, first raised his index finger to a few servants outside the hall and gave a "shh", and then put a crystal-like jade ear on the door to eavesdrop.

Several servants: "..."

After looking at each other, they still didn't dare to speak out to expose the disrespectful act of His Majesty's most beloved Highness...

……

In the hall, His Majesty Li Er's first words made Fang Jun break out in cold sweat: "I have always been generous and trusting to you. Not only do I believe that you are not a person who plays power, but you can also stand on the ground of right and wrong. But you regard my orders as nothing, brazenly intervened in the Guanlong Mutiny and assisted the East Palace to defeat it, do you believe that you are lawless and think that you are the big one? Tang Que can't let you, the Duke of Yue, and I can't kill you, the son-in-law?"

His face was stern, with a fierce look in his eyes.

Outside the city of Luoyang, he made it very clear, but who would have thought that this guy agreed face-to-face happily, and then forgot all about it when he turned his head, so that he was ashamed and humiliated, and he did not hesitate to feign death to achieve easy storage. How could he not be angry?
Guan Long's army advised to overthrow the East Palace, he is a thief of the world, he only needs to "wake up" at the right time to order the world to punish the country's thieves. The cancerous tumor that knocks the bone and sucks the marrow above, the voice of wisdom spreads all over the world!
If he issued an edict to abolish the crown prince, he would inevitably be suspected of "using the father to force the son". In addition to "killing brothers and brothers" in the past, his impression of a "loving father" that has been passed down to the world for many years will be destroyed...

Comparing the two, is there more than a thousand miles between the advantages and disadvantages?

Of course, this is nothing more than an angry remark. Today, Fang Jun really can't kill him if he wants to...

Not to mention whether the Right Tunwei organized by him will cause chaos and chaos in Guanzhong after he is given to death, just the invincible navy sailing across the ocean on the East China Sea will turn the entire East China Sea upside down. The area along the Tang Dynasty was devastated.

Perhaps, this is exactly where Fang Jun dared to defy him...

Fang Jun naturally understands the current situation, His Majesty Li Er will definitely not covet and kill him immediately, the corrupt situation in the East China Sea is unbearable for the entire empire.

Therefore, a person can not be greedy for power or seize power, but a man should not be powerless for a day...

On the face, Fang Jun knelt down on the ground in fear and fear: "Your Majesty, forgive me. It's not because I resisted the decree. It was because the situation was urgent at that time. The family members of the East Palace and the ruling and opposition civil and military retreated to the Xuanwu Gate. Once captured by the rebels, these people It is bound to be hard to survive... I know that His Majesty loves the younger generation, and loves the sons and princesses of the Eastern Palace like treasures. If they are buried in the chaos of war, His Majesty will be heartbroken. People in the world do not know the truth, and it is inevitable that they will misunderstand His Majesty At that time, rumors will spread everywhere, and the name of His Majesty the Holy Lord will be tarnished, and there will be no redemption for a hundred deaths!"

These words have some connotations: if you really die, you will naturally forget about everything, but once you "resurrect", do you really think that the world is a fool and can't see your plan to catch you?When the time comes, the East Palace will be annihilated. After "killing brothers and killing brothers", you may bear the infamy of "killing parents and children with poison". At that time, even if you pour all the water of the Yellow River, you will never be able to wash away...

"Ho ho!"

His Majesty Li Er smiled angrily: "According to what you said, I still have to be grateful to you?"

Fang Jun said solemnly: "Your Majesty has always been kind to my ministers. How can I not be grateful? I dare not disobey the order. It's just that the situation in the world is changing rapidly. At that time, this minister can only do so. Besides, the world is Your Majesty's world...you don't have to act too hastily."

His Majesty Li Er is not Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. Although the Eastern Expedition did not go all the way, and the final fruits were accidentally snatched by the navy, the biggest enemy on the northeast border disappeared. Since then, he can attack the internal affairs with power and further consolidate the imperial power. Why wait like this Violent means to achieve the purpose of easy storage?
Seeing His Majesty Li Er's face was gloomy and silent, he hurriedly said: "Whether it's the Guanlongmen family, Shandong aristocratic family, Jiangnan gentry, plus those famous families of all sizes in the world, they will eventually be under the rule of the Tang Dynasty. As long as we unswervingly implement the policy of selecting scholars through imperial examinations, it will take only 20 years at most to bear fruit. By then, the rise of the poor and the decline of the powerful, why worry that the imperial power will not last forever?"

……

His Majesty Li Er didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the hall was very tense. Princess Jinyang, who was eavesdropping outside, only felt her heart pounding, and she was about to die of fright.

From the beginning of her memory, even powerful officials like Li Ji and Changsun Wuji were submissive and followed suit in front of their father's anger, but has she ever seen someone like Fang Jun be so relentless, even tit for tat?

I'm really afraid that his father will withdraw from the palace gate and behead him in public in a fit of anger, and stay in the palace as a servant after he is alive and cleansed...

……

After a long time, His Majesty Li Er let out a breath slowly, waved his hands, and said in a bad mood: "You are clearly arrogant because of petting, but the court is busy right now, I am too lazy to bother with you... You have always had a lot of contacts with the children of the Guanzhong family. , now that my son is getting older, and when it's time to get married, do you have someone you want to recommend to me?"

Princess Jinyang's ears outside the door pricked up...

Fang Jun was stunned for a moment, wondering if His Majesty Li Er mentioned this matter to ask him for a suitable son-in-law, or to test his mind, to see if he can remain neutral on this matter, so as to test his attitude toward Jinyang. Does the princess have a coveted heart?

Rumors spread all over the outside world, he naturally knew it well, but he always disdained to defend himself.

But now in front of His Majesty Li Er, he can no longer treat him vaguely like before...

You must recommend a person with the highest character, talent, and family background to prove your innocence. Otherwise, if Princess Jinyang has not left the cabinet for a day, he will continue to bear this suspicion.

However, after making up his mind, he frantically selected the children from the aristocratic families he knew in the past, but suddenly found that there was no suitable person... You can't just choose a cat or a dog for Princess Jinyang to marry in order to prove your innocence, right?
Unexpectedly, when he hesitated so much, Li Er Majesty's face became more and more gloomy.
