Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2311 Is this Fang Jun's layout?

The Guanlong nobles who created this huge empire single-handedly are willing to sit still and let the Jiangnan clan, which has always been scornful, climb up on their heads to do their best and seize the power in their hands?
If you want to suppress the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River, you must ensure the smooth flow of the Silk Road and ensure the core status of the empire in Guanzhong!

This alone is not enough. After all, the profit of land-based cargo farming is far less than that of Shanghai trade. Therefore, while the Guanlong nobles are desperately maintaining the Silk Road, they must also unite with the Shandong aristocratic families who have always been hostile, and work hand in hand to resist the rise of the Jiangnan gentry. .

In this way, the empire formed a situation of confrontation between the north and the south.

However, there is no need to worry that the empire will fall into a state of division between the north and the south. The Grand Canal connects the north and the south, making Shandong and the south of the Yangtze River one, and the army can pass through the north and the south very smoothly.

The entire empire will be in a balance of competing with each other and advancing hand in hand.

Only when all parties are balanced can we create a prosperous and prosperous world!
Changsun Huan didn't know until this time that behind Fang Jun's seemingly random and arrogant behavior, he actually set up such a chess game in silence.

This is basically using the entire country as a chessboard, and lashing out at Fang Qiu between pointers!
No matter how unrestrained and confident people are, they have to admit in frustration that the gap between the two sides is like heaven and earth...

……

Changsun Wuji looked at the two sons, saw the frustrated expressions on their faces, and thought to himself: Do you think the difference is only due to these strategizing?
I couldn't bear to hurt the self-confidence of the two sons, but I had to remind them, so that the whole family realized the current situation, especially for Fang Jun, who could be regarded as a "stranger" opponent. Ji still said: "This time, Fang Jun advised His Majesty to set up a military aircraft department to manage the military affairs of the empire. He has already obtained His Majesty's approval. After two days of the court meeting, he will publicly solicit the opinions of the ministers, but it is just a formality. , the establishment of this military aircraft department is already certain."

For the emperor, the establishment of the military aircraft office can make the emperor's control over the military power reach the pinnacle, it can be said that the world's military power is in control; Even if you only grab a little bit, it's for nothing.

From top to bottom, all factions can benefit from it. The establishment of the Military Aircraft Department is like a surging Yellow River, and no one can stop it from galloping thousands of miles.

After a short pause, Changsun Wuji continued: "If it is as expected by my father, after this court meeting, Fang Jun is very likely to enter the military aircraft department and become one of the few giants who really hold power in the military."

Changsun Huan said in amazement: "This... is impossible? Not to mention that His Majesty has always had the idea of ​​suppressing Fang Jun. Just talking about the many factions in the military, how can he sit back and watch Fang Jun, an outsider who does not belong to any faction in the military? Entering the military aircraft department? What's more, that fellow has not reached the age of weak crown this year, how can such a yellow-mouthed child hold down the gang of arrogant soldiers?"

He felt that this news was even more unbelievable than Fang Jun's strategizing and planning for the next hundred years of the empire.

Geniuses do exist, and Changsun Huan envied and envied Fang Jun's idea of ​​North-South confrontation, and felt that it was possible.

But where is the army?
In terms of seniority, the most serious thing is that it is definitely not that if you win a vigorous battle in Mobei, you will be able to surpass many big men in the army.

In the army, the commander is always your commander!
If one wants to surpass the chief, one needs a lot of accumulation of experience, military exploits, etc., as well as some special opportunities.

Fang Jun, why?
……

Changsun Wuji was no longer interested in explaining.

With limited talent, he can't see all kinds of opportunities hidden under the surface, no matter how earnestly you teach and remind him, he won't be able to understand.

It's just that I can't help feeling sad in my heart.

The gap between Fang Jun and his own sons is obvious. After a hundred years, he has no outstanding sons to revitalize the family business and shine on the lintel, and the relationship with the prince is also very cold and distant. What will the eldest grandson's family rely on? Above the church?

I'm afraid not only to continue to be the leader of the Guanlong nobles, but also to protect one's life wisely under the turbulent tide of the times, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do so.

There is no successor, it is so frustrating and worrying...

He doesn't expect the eldest grandson's family to still control the court after a hundred years, but only hopes to be able to rely on the emperor to be safe and secure.

Changsun Wuji held the teacup, sipped slowly one sip at a time, his determination became more and more determined.

*****
At noon, the weather was hot.

The insects on the big tree kept neighing, and the wind blowing slowly brought unbearable heat. The whole Chang'an city was like a huge steamer. After a little exercise, it would sweat profusely. The bluestone slabs on the streets were scorched by the scorching sun It was hot, and there were very few pedestrians.

In the back house of King Jing's Mansion, Li Yuanjing was lying on a rocking chair and fell asleep soundly. The windows in the flower hall were opened, and several maidservants held rocking fans to serve the left and right, and they kept fanning the huge ice cubes in the copper basin in the corner. A gust of cooling fan was directed towards Li Yuanjing.

It's cool and pleasant...

Li Yuanjing's eyelids twitched in a deep sleep, his hands subconsciously grasped something, and then he opened his eyes in a daze.

had a dream...

Small footsteps sounded outside the flower hall, and a servant came in and said: "I want to report to the lord, Prince Du and Prince Chai are asking to see you."

Li Yuanjing sat up from the rocking chair, raised his hand and wiped his forehead, sweating profusely, he let out a breath slowly, and said: "Take the two of them to the study room and wait a while, take me to take a bath, and then go meet."

"Here."

The servants took orders and left.

Li Yuanjing got down from the rocking chair, tugged at his collar, and said, "Wait for me to take a bath and change clothes."

"Here!"

The maidservants on the left and right stopped shaking their fans, surrounded Li Yuanjing to the next room, and brought hot water to help Li Yuanjing take a bath and change clothes.

Refreshed after bathing, Li Yuanjing stretched out his hands to allow the maid to change his clothes, but his mind was a little dazed.

He had a dream just now. In the dream, his body was ten feet tall, wearing sky shoes and holding the sun and the moon in his hands...

To hold the sun and the moon in your hands is to grasp the universe. Is this a warning from the gods, indicating that he will become the lord of the world?

Those ancient holy kings recorded in the history books all had a sense of heaven and man before they achieved supremacy, and God also sent warnings in various ways...

My heart throbbed unbearably, but I didn't dare to express joy, let alone speak to others, so I had to hide it deeply in my heart.

……

Li Yuanjing stepped into the study, and Du He and Chai Lingwu, who were sitting on the chairs drinking tea, quickly got up, bowed and saluted together: "We have seen the prince."

Li Yuanjing laughed, waved his hands and said: "Excuse me, we are close people, why do we need such vulgar etiquette?"

He strode to the main seat and sat down, looked at the two with a smile, and asked, "The two sons-in-law are here together, but what's the matter?"

The two sat down separately, ignored a glance, and Chai Lingwu said: "Your Majesty listened to Fang Junzhi's advice and intends to set up a military aircraft department to give an overview of the world's military power. I wonder if the prince has heard of it?"

Naturally, it is impossible for Li Yuanjing not to know about such a big matter, but he said curiously: "This is a major matter for the court, you two asked me, what do you mean?"

He wondered, could it be that these two people watched the Military Aircraft Department dominate the military power of the world, and they wanted to join it and get a share of it, right?
Hehe, I really don't know the heights of the sky and the earth...

Chai Lingwu said: "We are not virtuous enough, and our merits are not obvious, so naturally we dare not covet such an eminent position. It's just that when I was at home in the morning, it happened that the Duke of Guo State came to visit and talked with my brother in detail about the future of the court meeting in a few days. Someone in the meeting asked His Majesty to recommend Fang Jun to the Military Aircraft Department, and advised my elder brother not to refute it in the court because of his private likes and dislikes."

Li Yuanjing's eyes immediately widened.

Guo Guogong is the former Right Tunwei General Zhang Shigui...

Zhang Shigui made good friends with Chai Shao in his early years, and once fought under the command of Princess Pingyang. After the death of both Princess Pingyang and Chai Shao, Zhang Shigui has always defended the Chai brothers more.

This time, there must have been some rumors that he went to dissuade Chai Zhewei, who was at odds with Fang Jun, from opposing Fang Jun's superiority in the court.

Being able to visit the door in person without avoiding suspicion must be due to a huge force pushing Fang Jun to the top, and whoever gets in the way may cause trouble.

but……

Fang Jun wants to enter the military aircraft department?

That's a proper military boss!In the past, although Fang Jun had made great military exploits and won the favor of His Majesty, he had a great influence in the army, but due to his seniority and official position, he could not become a prince of his own. Fang Jun will truly become a banner of the military.

This is not comparable to the title of Minister of the Ministry of War.

Li Yuanjing looked at Du He and Chai Lingwu in front of him, feeling extremely frustrated.

Thinking that these two people followed him with Fang Jun at the beginning, but Fang Jun broke with him, and since then they have soared into the sky. These two people are sincere, but the gap is too big, right?
Then he thought of Xue Wanche, who was the most qualified to enter the Military Aircraft Department by his side...he also abandoned himself and ran to Liaodong to command thousands of troops, just waiting for the Eastern Expedition to start to be a pioneer.

I am ambitious and strategizing, how come now, there are only some crooked melons, jujubes, shrimp soldiers and crab generals left around me?
This is not the rhythm of "holding the sun and the moon"...
