Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2219 Fire in the Backyard
Throughout the ages, apart from the emperor's family and Kong Sheng's family, there is only the Pei family, which can be called a thousand-year-old family!

The Pei family began in the Spring and Autumn Period, continued for two generations, rose in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, developed in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and reached its peak in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

However, such a prominent family now has to keep dividing the family because there are too many outstanding children in the clan, and finally evolved into a huge family line of "three families and five families" such as the Eastern Family, the Middle Family, and the Western Family.

Pei Xiu, Pei Kai, Pei Yun, Pei Ju, Pei Tuo, Pei Rangzhi, Pei Zheng, Pei Ji... Listening to these famous names for a while, do you think that the Hedong Pei family is already the number one family in the world?

Actually it is not.

As the saying goes, "Combination makes strength strong, division leads to weakness". It is precisely because the Pei family's descendants are luxuriant and outstanding, so in order to continue the family orthodoxy, they had to separate out the outstanding children one by one and let them grow freely. The family affection has gradually become indifferent, resulting in Pei's "three relatives and five households" who are only maintained in name, and many children even meet each other but don't know each other...

For aristocratic families, talents are the foundation of the family's prosperity, but too many talents, especially the outstanding ones among the second sons and bastards, are indeed a big hidden danger for the family.The more talented people are, the more ambitious they are. Such people are unwilling to be outdone by others and have high ambitions. Every time the family is separated, it is actually a weakening of the power of the family.

Therefore, the boycott of Fang Jun's list quickly reached a consensus.

The reason why the nobles of Guanlong had to swallow their anger and resist this seemingly useless practice, instead of publicly refuting and counterattacking, is because Fang Jun today is different from the past. The Zhongxin nobles, the leaders of another force in the military, are not the Guanlong nobles who are gradually fading to the west, who can confront them head-on.

This not only makes everyone sigh, but once upon a time, the nobles of Guanlong, who held half of the military power in the world, prospered a country, destroyed a country, abolished the emperor, and the society was under control. How could there be an extra minister so afraid?
Changsun Wuji said with a gloomy face, "We will work together to boycott this list, and show the people of the world, and especially His Majesty the Emperor, this kind of determination! I don't believe that the Emperor will allow Fang Jun to use such viciousness." This treacherous scheme forced my Guanlong family to die!"

Linghu Xiuji yelled: "Our Guanlong disciples will go forward and succeed for the Great Tang. Could it be that now that the world is at peace, we just cunningly kill rabbits and kill donkeys? We are really in a hurry, and we are not easy to provoke! His Majesty definitely puts the country as the most important thing, and issued an order to punish Fang Jun for his actions, and severely attack his arrogance! Isn't it just relying on a little military merit to fly domineering? What is it!"

Everyone was silent.

Is that "a little" military merit?

Feng Lang Juxu, Le Shi Yanran, and sweep Mobei, that is the supreme feat that no one has made since self-defense Huo Hussar!

No matter who it is, with such feats in hand, they will have the confidence to be domineering!

Therefore, based on the foundation of the Guanlong nobles, they can only resist collectively, not face-to-face confrontation.

Yuchi Yanshan and Yuanshi Doulu looked at each other, and they both sighed.

Worrying even more...

*****
The Guanlong nobles come from the same line, have the same spirit, and have always followed the lead of the eldest grandson Wuji, so the elder grandson Wuji joined forces and agreed to boycott Fang Jun.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Changsun Wuji had dinner and sat alone in the study slowly drinking tea, thinking about Fang Jun's possible response, and what measures the Guanlong nobles would take to counter it again...

It was getting dark outside, the maid walked into the study lightly, and lit the candles.

Candles are bright.

Changsun Wuji thought for a while, picked up an ancient book on the desk, read it with relish, and gradually immersed himself in it.

After a long time, he was awakened by the sound of hurried footsteps.

The second son, Sun Huan, walked in.

Xu Shi had just returned from the yamen. Changsun Huan was dressed in a crimson official robe, with a two-beam crown of Jinxian on his head, and a blue-patterned beryl on his waist. His face was like a crown jade, and he was handsome and handsome.

The descendants of the eldest grandson's family are all very good-looking. Among them, the eldest son, the eldest Sun Chong, is the most handsome and suave. It's a pity...

Changsun Wuji sighed inwardly, then smiled, and asked gently, "What happened in court today?"

Changsun Huan looked a little serious, first bowed and saluted, then sat on the chair where Changsun Wuji lowered his head, and said in a deep voice: "My child knows, let Fang Jun tick off my name."

Today in the yamen, there are rumors that are raging.

It is said that Fang Jun ticked off all the eldest sons of Guan Long's children...

Changsun Huan was the eldest son of the concubine, but after Changsun Chong committed a crime, he was trained as the heir of the family, and all the political resources of the family began to lean towards him. Promoted to Shaoqing of Honglu Temple.

But after listening for a while, he realized that Fang Jun was not targeting the eldest son, but all the heirs of the great family...

Everyone knows that entering the Academy is equivalent to embarking on the road to Qingyun. As long as you don't risk your life, you will definitely be a middle-level and upper-level official in the empire in the future. However, this road is now blocked by Fang Jun. How can you not feel depressed and resentful?
The eldest grandson Wuji was about to speak, when the door of the study was suddenly knocked open, both father and son were startled, looked up in astonishment, and saw the fourth son, eldest grandson Yan, walking in quickly, his cheeks were flushed and he smelled of alcohol ...

Changsun Wuji frowned, put down the scroll in his hand, and reprimanded displeasedly: "A child of a family should have the character of a child of a family. When sitting, lying and walking, he must follow the law and follow the rules! How is it proper to be so drunk?"

Changsun Yan hiccupped, breathed out a mouthful of alcohol, and quickly apologized.

Changsun Wuji said impatiently: "Hurry up and go back to wash up. It's getting late today, so we can talk about it tomorrow morning."

For this ignorant son, he really has no patience to teach him.The eldest son, Sun Chong, was intelligent since he was a child, and when he grows up, he is steady and sharp. Even the eldest son, Sun Huan, is also talented. , Full of dudes, really unpopular.

Chang Sunyan keenly felt his father's displeasure, and the accumulated fear in his heart made him tremble all over, but instead of avoiding it as before, he stood firm and said, "I have something to do with you. Father discusses..."

Before the words were finished, Changsun Wuji scolded: "Are you ignoring my words? Back off quickly, don't be so noisy!"

The eldest grandson Yan blushed.

Even in later generations, the minds of teenagers who were seventeen or eighteen were already mature, not to mention the Tang Dynasty where they got married and had children at the age of fifteen or sixteen?Faced with his father's merciless scolding, Chang Sunyan was filled with fear and sadness, and even a little bit of anger...

It's always been like this since I was a kid!

The eldest brother and the second brother got into trouble, and I was the one who was scolded;

Changsun Yan took a deep breath, changed his usual timid look in front of Changsun Wuji, summoned up his courage and said, "Father, the list of the academy has been announced, and my child is honored to be on it."

"Ok?"

Changsun Wuji was startled, and hurriedly asked, "How do you know?"

This list was taken away by Chu Suiliang and given to him. How did Chang Sunyan know that his name was on the list?

Changsun Yan said happily: "The list is posted at the gate of the academy, my son will go to see it in the afternoon, there is absolutely no mistake!"

In the afternoon, I went to have a banquet with my friends, and heard that the academy had announced the list of the first batch of students, and it was posted beside the blue stone at the mountain gate of the academy, and many people clamored to see it.The eldest grandson Yan didn't have any interest. It's a good thing to embark on the road of Qingyun and become a disciple of the emperor. It has always been treated as the eldest son of every family. He is a mere son of the eldest grandson's family. to him.

However, all the friends were in high spirits, so Chang Sunyan had no choice but to accompany them.

As a result, it was on the list, and it had its own name...

Chang Sunyan didn't have time to think about why the second elder brother Sun Huan who was originally scheduled to enter the academy became himself, he only felt that his chest was already filled with surprises!

As long as he enters the academy, he is a disciple of the Son of Heaven. Even if he does not have a family to rely on, he can still create a world, a world of his own!Chang Sunyan suddenly felt full of confidence. In the past, he was just a useless bastard in his family, but in the future he might be the pillar of his family!
