Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1775
Watching Xiao Jing's back disappear into the bamboo forest path, Shu'er stood at the door blankly, with a complicated expression and difficult to understand.

After going around and around, he still couldn't escape the result of being a concubine?
She raised her head, raised her clean and sharp chin, her beautiful eyes looked at the green bamboo swaying in the wind, as if she was looking at her precarious and bleak fate...

The girl walked past her, and stopped when she reached the door, staring at Shu'er with eyes red and swollen from crying, gritted her teeth and said, "Are you satisfied this time? You have always been like this, everyone in the family You have to be close to you for the good things. Only when you are not rare or don’t want them can we get our turn. Now even marriage and marriage are the same. Did you want to marry Fang Jun from the very beginning, deliberately in front of me Behaving like that, you want me to beg you to go, so that you not only fulfill your wish, but also become that reserved daughter of the Xiao family?"

The breeze blew the bangs on Shu'er's forehead, she was still looking at the clumps of green bamboos, tightened the jacket around her body, and stood there quietly without speaking.

Whatever anyone else thinks, let it be...

The girl didn't get a response, she became more and more sure of her guess, stomped her feet angrily, and walked away.

Just when he turned around, tears flowed down again.

In the past, she cried for her cousin, but now she cried for herself...

I didn't seize the opportunity to marry into the Fang family this time, who knows which family I will marry into next time?With her status, the son of a powerful family is not her turn, and if she goes, she can only be a concubine. If it is an ordinary small family, she might as well be Fang Jun's concubine...

It wasn't until the servant girl came to call softly, reminding the autumn wind to be cool and careful of the wind and cold, that Shu'er regained her senses and walked back to the embroidered building.

After taking a sip of hot tea, her thin body warmed up a bit, she raised her eyes to look out of the window, and whispered softly, "What kind of person is Fang Jun?"

The two servant girls brought up the dinner and put it on the table while replying: "Who knows? But the family said that he is a very fierce and domineering person. Our family has suffered a lot from him, but the official It is very big and is very favored by the emperor."

Another said: "But I heard that he is very talented, treats wives and concubines very well, and can make a lot of money. Our Xiao family has accumulated hundreds of years of wealth, and I am afraid that it is not as much troublesome as he has been in a few years..."

The two little maids chattered, talking about what they had heard about Fang Jun.

Shu'er picked up a bowl of white porridge, chewed and ate slowly, and listened attentively.

Since it is one's own destiny, it is irresistible. Instead of complaining about oneself, it is better to take the initiative to face it...

She didn't care much about Fang Jun, since she grew up in a deep house, all the men she met were like that?Relying on his good looks, he will definitely be able to win over his thoughts, and he dare not say that he regards himself as a treasure, at least he can treat him like a pearl.

She was just worried about Fang Jun's wife and concubine...

That Princess Gaoyang has a noble status, and it is said that she doesn't care about the affairs of the back house, she has a careless temperament, but that Lady Wu, being able to manage all of Fang Jun's properties shows that she is a shrewd and powerful person, I am afraid she can't rub the sand in her eyes .

I don't know why, whenever I think of that Mrs. Wu, I always have a chilling feeling, which makes her shudder...

Could it be that Mrs. Wu was my old enemy in the previous life, and she will be my enemy in this life?
*****
The Xiao family acted resolutely.

Several family members discussed it and made a decision, Xiao Yu immediately went out of the city in a carriage to the pier, and took a boat down the river overnight to Huating Town.

He has a little understanding of Fang Jun's temperament. This son is determined. Once he decides on something, eight horses will not be able to pull it back. Cooperation, I am afraid that it is impossible to persuade.

Then the only way to save the country is to persuade Fang Xuanling...

This matter must not wait, it must be finalized before Fang Jun returns, otherwise he will definitely be rejected, and the family's face will be damaged. If you shake it out, the consequences will be unimaginable.

The next day, when Fang Xuanling saw Xiao Yu appearing in front of her with a tired face, he couldn't hide his surprise. He first invited Xiao Yu into the main hall, and then asked: "If the Duke of Song has something urgent, he can send it to him. To explain, I must try my best to do it, so why come here in person? We are not young, not when we were young in the past, and we should pay more attention to our body."

Xiao Yu sat on the chair, stretched his sore muscles, smiled wryly and said, "It's not that someone is impatient, it's because I can't wait for this matter."

Fang Xuanling ordered someone to offer fragrant tea, and said: "Let's have a sip of hot water first, no matter what happens, it's not too late to talk about it slowly."

Xiao Yu nodded, took a sip from the teacup, let out a breath, shook his head and sighed: "This time, a certain person will really be tortured by your Erlang..."

This naturally refers to the incident of the smuggling fleet being robbed by pirates. Fang Xuanling did not expect such a situation to occur at the beginning, but he knew his son, Mo Ruofu, and he was convinced that the whole incident must be planned by Fang Jun behind the scenes. The family's fleet single-handedly wiped out the pirates.

Afterwards, Wang Xuance escorted the merchant ship back, and immediately rushed to him and told him in detail what happened at sea...

So at this moment, even though his face is indifferent, Fang Xuanling's heart is extremely proud: If you Jiangnan gentry are arrogant, won't you still be played by my son in the palm of your hand, and you won't be able to scream after suffering?
But he said modestly in his mouth: "Mr. Song's words are serious. That dog of my family is not false, but he is still kind in his heart. If there is any offence, you are an elder, and I hope you will take care of it. If you can teach me more, A certain one is grateful."

If you have any dissatisfaction, you can go to Erlang to settle the score. If I can teach that kid a lesson, not only will I not be angry, but I will be happy to see it.

But you can't do anything about my son, so what's the matter with coming to my father to sue?

Xiao Yu put down the teacup and smiled wryly.

How could he not hear the teasing meaning in Fang Xuanling's words?

The problem is that he really has nothing to do with Fang Jun, he can only hope to persuade Fang Xuanling to make Fang Jun submit...

After some consideration, he said: "Your Majesty's Eastern Expedition is imminent, and we need a stable Jiangnan. The Tang Dynasty's national power is growing, and we need the unity and cooperation of all walks of life in Jiangnan...Since entering the Tang Dynasty, my family has been deeply favored by Your Majesty Long, and I am willing to do my best to help you." His Majesty’s pawn is to assist His Majesty in managing Jiangnan. I believe no one wants to see a chaotic Jiangnan, whether it is His Majesty, the Minister of the Household, or even the ministers of the court and the common people.”

These words Yunshan Mistmask seemed to avoid the seriousness and lighten the light without expressing the meaning, but Fang Xuanling could hear it clearly.

Xiao Yu is telling him that once it is revealed that the Xiao family and the Xie family have joined forces to murder Wang Qi and shirk responsibility, how can the other major families let it go?There will be an undercurrent in the south of the Yangtze River, and the major families will attack and annihilate each other, making the political situation unstable.It is all the Xiao family's desire to protect themselves, and it is inevitable that they will also join in this kind of chaos. At that time, the fish and rice barn in the south of the Yangtze River will be in chaos.

At the same time, Xiao Yu also stated that the Xiao family is willing to stand on the side of the emperor, dare to be a dog, and devote themselves to his plan to stabilize Jiangnan. Naturally, the premise is that Fang Jun can't sell the Xiao family as soon as he changes hands...

This is not a threat, it is a fact.

As long as Fang Jun reveals the murder of Wang Qi by Xiao Cuo and Xie Wenhua, the situation Xiao Yu mentioned will definitely happen.

In that case, it will not be a good result for the Xiao family, for Fang Jun, for His Majesty, and for Jiangnan...

Fang Xuanling fell into deep thought.

All things in the world can only achieve balance if they restrain each other and restrain each other.

However, the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River attacked and annihilated each other, and the reactions and changes that could be triggered by all parties would be completely beyond anyone's control.

Right now, with the rapid development of commerce, Jiangnan's status as an empire is becoming more and more important, and there is a faint trend that can be compared with Guanzhong. Once Jiangnan is in chaos, the good situation that has been worked hard for these years is likely to collapse. At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

This is something Fang Xuanling absolutely does not want to see...

The most ideal situation is that the dominant Xiao family closely leans against His Majesty and the imperial court, dealing with, confronting, and restraining the rest of the Jiangnan gentry, so that the imperial court can control Jiangnan to the maximum extent.

How to appease the Xiao family has become the top priority!

Fang Xuanling pondered for a while, then raised his head, looked at Xiao Yu with a smile, and said: "A few days ago, Duke Song said that there was a gentle and virtuous woman in the clan who wanted to marry Erlang of my family. I woke up several times secretly laughing, I don’t know if this marriage still counts?”

Xiao Yu's heart suddenly relaxed, knowing that the matter was done, Fang Xuanling was a smart person, and after weighing the pros and cons, he had already sided with the Xiao family.

Immediately he regained his energy, stroked his beard with his hands, laughed and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the house minister, but I think that woman from the clan is not worthy of Erlang in your house."

Fang Xuanling was stunned.

You have been talking about it for a long time, don't you just want to marry my family to express your loyalty to the emperor, so that my family Erlang will not publicize your scandal, so that the Xiao family will not become the target of the Jiangnan gentry?

Why is it not playing cards according to common sense now...
