Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1401 Negotiation
There are candles burning in the study, brilliant and bright.

Fang Xuanling's expression was slightly dignified, his mother, Lu Shi, who seldom appeared in the father's study room, was actually there, sitting on the chair with a dark and gloomy face, faintly angry.

Surprised, Fang Jun sat on the chair in front of the desk, waited until the maid served the tea and left, then held the teacup in one hand and asked, "But what happened?"

Fang Xuanling scolded angrily: "It's not your fault that you caused yourself! This old man has been upright all his life, how did he give birth to such a shallow and absurd playboy like you? It's true that you have lost all your face, What an idiot!"

Watching his father spitting and staring everywhere, Fang Jun was baffled.

He was at a loss, and his head and face were full of swearing, where did the so-called come from?
Quickly put the teacup in his hand on the table, and asked cautiously: "Father, please tell me, what did my son do wrong?"

Fang Xuanling snorted angrily, glared at Fang Jun angrily, but turned his head away, ignoring him.

Fang Junzhang Er King Kong, confused...

After thinking about it carefully, today's performance is not bad. I stood at the door like a welcome guest all day, so tired that my waist and knees are weak. No credit but hard work, right?Besides, although people like Changsun Wuji and Gao Shilian who have always been at odds with me come to the door today, I have never been rude and honest.

After thinking about it, Fang Jun couldn't figure out what he did wrong that made his father so angry, so he could only look at his mother Lu Shi as if asking for help.

Lu Shi was also a little displeased at first, so when Fang Xuanling reprimanded Fang Jun, he stayed silent, thinking that this kid was a little proud, and it would be good to teach him a lesson.

But seeing his son's pitiful eyes at this moment, he suddenly softened his heart, frowned and stared at Fang Xuanling, and said displeasedly: "Just teach the child a few words, why should you be so strict? Besides, we really can't blame our son for this matter. It’s those villains with ulterior motives who fall into trouble and trap good people, if you have the ability, go and fight with those guys, what can you do with your wife and children at home?”

Fang Xuanling was furious: "Well, you duplicitous woman, it wasn't you who said just now that you wanted to teach this kid a lesson, so that he can act rigorously and establish a gentleman's style in the future, so that he won't always be caught by others and fall into a passive position. ?"

Lu's heart is a little guilty, this is indeed what the husband and wife said just now...

But the problem is that Mrs. Lu has always been used to being strong, and now she was reprimanded by Fang Xuanling in front of her son, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, so she poked her neck in anger and retorted: "The son does not teach the father's fault, even the son understands the truth, you The majestic prime minister of a country doesn’t understand?”

Fang Xuanling almost fainted!

How dare you use the words from your son's "Three Character Classic" to teach me, the prime minister?

Trembling with anger, pointing at Mrs. Lu and cursing: "It's hard to raise a girl and a villain!"

Lu snorted, and said leisurely: "There are three ways of being a gentleman. I am incompetent. The benevolent don't worry, the wise don't confuse, and the brave don't fear. You, Fang Xuanling, always call yourself a gentleman, but you don't even know the first thing about the way of a gentleman. If you can't do it, even though she is a woman, she despises her."

This sentence comes from "The Analects of Confucius Xianwen". Lu Shi said that Fang Xuanling did not even comply with the first article of the way of a gentleman, that is, "the benevolent do not worry".

What is meant by "the benevolent have no worries"?
It means that a person has a big heart of benevolence and righteousness, and his heart is extremely kind and forgiving, so he can ignore many details and not care about small gains and losses.Only such a person can truly achieve inner peace and calmness, and can be called a gentleman.

Obviously, it is mocking Fang Xuanling, since he calls himself a gentleman, why can't he be quiet, calm, benevolent and tolerant?

Fan Yang's Lu family is orthodox in the Han Dynasty and Confucianism Zhengshuo. Even if he is a generation of women, Lu's talent and learning are not at the level of rural women, but definitely above the level of ordinary scholars.

Seeing Fang Xuanling so angry that his nose was smoking, Lu Shi was elated.

Are you the only one who can swear politely?
The old lady became sour, and it wasn't for nothing...

The old couple quarreled, Fang Jun was sweating profusely, and hurriedly said: "Father, mother, please calm down... What happened?"

"Ask your mother yourself!"

Fang Xuanling was very angry. As a woman, the knitting lady is good-natured, so why read so many books?
Fang Jun looked at Lu Shi.

Mrs. Lu stunned Fang Xuanling to the point of being speechless, proud of herself, relieved her depression, and imitated the words that Mrs. Gao Shilian's wife Xianyu came to congratulate her mansion today, and then said at the feast of the princesses over again.

Fang Jun listened quietly, and his expression gradually became dignified.

After Lu finished talking, she asked curiously: "Son, tell mother the truth, what's going on between you and Princess Changle?"

Fang Jun said speechlessly: "What else could be going on? Nothing happened!"

Mrs. Lu glared at him angrily: "Flies don't bite seamless eggs! There are several royal princesses who are not yet married or have divorced, such as the coquettish and enchanting Princess Fangling, why is no one talking to you about her?" , but Princess Changle?"

Fang Jun had no choice but to keep his mouth shut, thinking about Xian Yushi's real intentions, was it a moment of reckless quick talk, or did he mean something with ulterior motives?
After a while, he looked at Fang Xuanling and asked, "In my father's opinion, is there someone behind the scenes who instigated Xianyu to do this?"

Fang Xuanling didn't even lift his eyelids, and said calmly: "Your mother said that 'the son is not the fault of the father', but your father and I, who are honest people who dare not even accept a concubine, how can we give the romantic and suave Fang Erlang to you?" What about making suggestions? It’s not that you are unfeeling for your father, but you really have more than enough energy.”

This is what it says...

Fang Jun stroked his forehead with his hand, his face flushed.

Dad, you are also the prime minister of a country after all, can you be a little straight?Is it really good to belittle your own son like this?

Hearing this, Lu's eyebrows were raised upright, he reached out and patted the table, glared at Fang Xuanling and said, "Oh, look at this sour look, do you envy your son who hugs left and right, do you want to imitate it? Hmph Hmph, don't say I look down on you, our son is capable, not only can he train the princess in the family to be obedient, but also make another princess become a confidante, how can you Fang Xuanling, Do you dare to have such an extravagant hope? To tell you the truth, if the old lady is not dead, you will never even think about taking a concubine in!"

Fang Xuanling was so angry that his beard trembled wildly: "Why did this old man ever have such thoughts?"

Lu Shi did not back down: "You don't even dare to measure!"

Fang Xuanling felt that this woman was simply unreasonable: "This is not a question of daring or not, but that this old man doesn't care about it!"

Lu Shi sneered: "Come on, which cat doesn't steal fish? It's one thing to be able to take a concubine, but another thing to want to take a concubine. Even if you have to cover up your thoughts, you are just a hypocrite." !"

Fang Xuanling was about to explode!

I can't even think about it, I can't even think about it, this bitch is simply my nemesis...

Fang Jun, one head and two older, quickly dissuaded the old lady: "Mother, calm down. Father, as the prime minister of the court, has never been in love with others. He has been in love with his mother and husband for decades. I don't know how many famous families he envies." The lady, the queen's order. This kind of man is really the only one in the world, and the mother should love and understand her, only envy the mandarin ducks and not the immortals, and she will live up to this good relationship. In the history, there must be a good story, and the son will be honored."

Although Mrs. Lu is half-mature, everyone still has the charm of a lady. Hearing what Fang Jun said was disgusting, he couldn't help but blushed, and spat: "Stinky boy, you have a sweet mouth, and you actually use your parents as a raft, you really want to beat me!"

Seeing Lu's expression, Fang Xuanling breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that no wonder his son was able to seduce Lan Xinhui's princess Changle, but he couldn't even handle an old wife.In terms of ability comparison in this area, a father like himself is simply crushed...

Don't mess around, let's talk about business.

"The situation is not good." Fang Xuanling said with a frown.

Mrs. Lu deeply believes that, as the daughter of Mrs. Lu of Fan Yang, she still has some knowledge, unlike those ignorant women who are trapped in the deep house and compound, who don't have the slightest insight into the development of things, and can only be at a loss when things come to an end Cry and wipe away tears.

As the emperor's favorite daughter, Princess Changle's status is undoubtedly the most prominent among the princes and princesses, even the crown prince and the king of Jin are behind.Especially after reconciling with Changsun Chong, the emperor felt more guilty, and even regarded Princess Changle as the jewel in his palm, and absolutely did not allow the slightest bit of grievance.

Even if it is as pungent as Lu's, he can't say "I hope others can't control your love". If Fang Jun is not married, it's fine. Princess Changle is married.

But now that Fang Jun is Princess Gaoyang's son-in-law, but there are such scandals with Princess Changle, which tarnish Princess Changle's innocence, how can the emperor not be furious?Once the emperor decides that Fang Jun and Princess Changle really have an affair, then Fang Jun will definitely face the emperor's surging anger!

For the emperor's most beloved daughter to suffer such grievances, Fang Jun's fate will never be better...

Fang Jun sighed and said: "Those guys want to drive their son out of the capital, but now that his son has still handed over Jing Zhaoyin's mission, is it necessary to kill them all? A mere servant of the military department can't control him no matter what. Go to their heads, why are you so aggressive, even at the expense of involving Princess Changle?"

He is really depressed.

If he really had an affair with Princess Changle, it would be fine. The so-called "death under the peony flower, even being a ghost is romantic", death is naturally impossible, even if he is expelled from Beijing, it is worth the money.

The problem is that he only touches it, not even a "fraternal desire", but he will suffer the emperor's blow, which is more wronged than Dou E...

Lu Shi said angrily: "This gang of aristocratic families have gone too far. Erlang has not given up on Jing Zhaoyin's position. Is it possible that His Majesty must demote Erlang to Qiongzhou in order to satisfy their wishes?"

Fang Xuanling's complexion was serious, and he sighed softly, looking out of the open window: "Erlang has always been close to the crown prince, if he is not dismissed from Beijing and cut off the crown prince's most powerful arm, how will others rise?"

I don't know when, outside the window, the breeze has gradually picked up, and it is raining lightly.

The breeze carried the rain and drifted into the house, and the air was moist and cool...
