Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2485 Reaching a Tacit Agreement
Dugu Lan's white beard trembled wildly, glared at Fang Jun and said, "Your arrogance! The Dugu family is a branch of Guanlong, why did they ever have a different intention to set up a separate family? And this kind of method of sowing discord should be put away as soon as possible, if others listen to it , I can’t help laughing my teeth out!”

He scolded fiercely, but his heart trembled in shock.

This kid really has a clear mind, he just showed a slight inclination, and he was caught by him...

Fang Jun smiled, refused to answer Dugu Lan's words, and asked instead: "Then according to the old county lord, how should we handle this matter?"

Dugu Lan said: "This is because your military department was unreasonable and quickly retreated. I pretended nothing happened. As for Cui Shilang, although he was wronged a little, he was only tied up after he got on the car, and outsiders didn't see it. , Why did you lose the face of the Ministry of War? Just let it go, there is no need to be punished."

He didn't want this matter to become a big issue. Once it got out of his control, the Guanlong nobles would definitely intervene. This was inconsistent with his original intention of trying to draw a clear line with the Guanlong nobles.

As a member of the Guanlong nobles, those with vested interests, it is not easy to draw a clear line, and they must not show too much urgency, otherwise the backlash of the Guanlong nobles will be enough to become a disaster for the Dugu clan.

But Fang Jun dared to confront Weiwei Temple to rob people with great fanfare, and Dugu Lan didn't believe it.

The Dugu Clan has been working hard to get rid of the Guanlong Group all these years, if they fight against the Ministry of War together with the nobles of Guanlong, all the previous efforts will be in vain...

Fang Jun didn't understand the reason why Dugu Lan did this, but judging by his eagerness to draw a line with the Guanlong nobles, it didn't seem like a fake, and there was no need to fake it.

After thinking for a while, he said, "The academy will start in two days, and there are still a few vacancies in the martial arts hall. I wonder if the old county lord is interested?"

Dugu Lan's eyes lit up.

Now "Zhenguan Academy" has not yet opened, but it seems to be the first school in the Tang Dynasty. I don't know how many people want to send their children to the academy. They are rushing to the academy. How can there be a shortage?

From what this means, it is obvious that you can go through the "back door"...

Drawing a clean line from the Guanlong nobles, or even breaking away from this once unparalleled behemoth, means that they can no longer enjoy various benefits from this group, including career resources.Without the resources from the group, if one's own children want to be promoted, they can only cultivate their own abilities and operate their own official positions.

And if you can enter the academy to study, it means you have strengthened your contacts and become a student of the emperor.

How could Dugu Lan not be ecstatic?

You must know that up to now, there are hundreds of students in the academy, and there are not even ten places reserved for the nobles of Guanlong...

Especially the student quota in the martial arts hall, that is a hard bargain that cannot be exchanged for real money!
Dugu Lan was very excited, cupped his hands and said: "Then I would like to thank Erlang, haha, I accept this favor!"

Fang Jun quickly raised his hand and said, "Don't thank me, my junior. I can't bear it, and I dare not accept it. The number of students in the academy must be reviewed by His Majesty. The junior can submit the names of the children of the Dugu family, but whether they can be admitted smoothly in the end?" , His Majesty has to be arbitrary."

I don't care about this matter, you have to ask His Majesty Li Er...

Dugu Lan frowned with snow-white eyebrows, and stared at Fang Jun displeased.

He really wants to gradually break away from the Guanlong nobles, because he feels that the big ship is leaking everywhere now, and the huge ship has no way to turn around, so he can only keep going forward and run aground sooner or later. He doesn't want the Dugu family to sink into the water with this broken ship, Forever.

But after all, as a member of the Guanlong nobles, you can plan anything secretly, but if you directly ignore your allies and turn to the emperor to beg for mercy without any scruples, what do you make the Guanlong nobles think?
Each of these guys is arrogant and arrogant. Once they join hands to punish Dugu, it will not only be as simple as the end of the world...

Seeing his hesitation, Fang Jun hit the rails while it was hot: "To be honest, what happened today was in fact approved by His Majesty, otherwise how would the younger generation dare to rob people from the Weiwei Temple and ignore the court's law? The old county prince is first-class A wise person must either turn his back on the nobles of Guanlong and obey His Majesty with all his strength, or he can't give up his current interests and fight against His Majesty..."

Dugu Lan was silent, he understood Fang Jun's meaning, but this decision was really difficult.

Fang Jun said: "Since the old county lord has been entangled, the younger generation might as well give the old county lord a helping hand."

Dugu Lan was shocked: "What do you want to do?"

Fang Jun said with relief: "The old magistrate, please be safe and don't be impatient."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Cui Dunli who was confused in the carriage, and said: "Immediately take Chang Sun Guang back to the prison of the Ministry of Military Affairs, guard him strictly, and interrogate him early tomorrow morning. If someone stops him, no matter who it is, he will be punished as an accomplice. Take it!"

Cui Dunli was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said, "Here!"

Open the curtain and jump out of the carriage.

He strode up to the officials of the Ministry of War and said loudly, "Escort Changsun Guang to the prison of the Ministry of War!"

The officials of the Ministry of War knew that this was Fang Jun's order, and immediately stepped forward to try to snatch Changsun Guang and others back from Weiwei Temple. The officials of Weiwei Temple naturally refused to do it. It was all lost, and there was a stalemate immediately.

Seeing this, Cui Dunli ordered the officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army directly: "Master Fang has an order. Anyone who prevents the Ministry of War from arresting Sun Guang will be an accomplice. They will be captured together and thrown into the prison of the Ministry of War. We will interrogate together later."

When the generals of the Anxi army heard this, they immediately geared up their fists, "Hula" surrounded the officials of Weiwei Temple, and stared at them intently.

Wei Weisi was stunned, and hurriedly looked at the carriage, only to find that Dugu Lan was sitting in the carriage and didn't show his face at all...

Although Weiwei Temple has the right to judge by military law, the Anxi Army is under the control of the Ministry of War, and they are the immediate superiors of the Anxi Army. The temple officials pulled him aside and snatched Changsun Guang back.

Cui Dunli waved his hand: "Enter the city immediately!"

Immediately, regardless of the local Weiwei Temple officials who were dumbfounded, they led the officials from the headquarters together with the Anxi Army to press down a group of criminals and walked towards Chang'an City.

Dugu Lan's confidant trotted to the side of the car, not daring to get in the car, so he could only stand under the car and ask: "Old Duke, the criminal was snatched away by the Ministry of War, do we want to get it back?"

Before the words were finished, the curtain of the car was lifted, and a teacup flew out of the car, hitting him on the forehead, and his life was shattered.

"Aw—" the official covered his forehead and squatted down with a howl.

Fang Jun yelled and cursed: "Mother! This official has reached an agreement with the old county magistrate, but you still dare to make noise. Could it be that you want to sow discord? You owe it!"

The officials of Weiwei Temple dared not speak out.

After all, he is also an official ordered by the court, so who can not be angry if he beats and scolds like this?
However, no matter how angry you are, you can only endure it. Fang Erlang's reputation is not something to be boasted about. If anyone dares to talk back or even fight back, maybe that guy will be so mad that he can clean them up from the beginning to the end. , it was even more embarrassing at that time...

Besides, Dugu Lan has been silent since he got into the car, and everyone doubted in their hearts, could it be that the old county prince was kidnapped and held hostage by Fang Jun?
In the carriage, Dugu Lan stroked his beard and looked at Fang Jun with complicated eyes.

He naturally understood that Fang Jun was so domineering, but he was actually reducing the pressure on him and helping him attract the firepower of the Guanlong nobles.Even though His Majesty Li Er has been suppressing the Guanlong nobles all the time, this move is to suit his preferences and is politically correct, but the backlash of the Guanlong nobles that may be triggered by this will still cause Fang Jun to suffer heavy losses.

The emperor is the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, but not the real Supreme.

These thousands of miles of rivers and mountains are all the land of the emperor in name, and the billions of people in the world are all the subjects of the emperor, but in reality, there are many shackles and fetters of the emperor himself. From ancient times to the present, there has never been any emperor who can do whatever he wants and make decisions with one word .

It's not that if you want to protect someone, you can really protect it.

However, His Majesty Li Er today is definitely a generation of heroes who are wise, powerful, and strategic for the future. Whether it is the Jiangnan gentry or the Guanlong nobles, as long as they are contrary to the national policy, they will be eradicated without mercy, even if they do not want to shake the world in order to stabilize the court. But it also has to be severely suppressed.

In an instant, Dugu Lan made a decision.

He leaned back against the wall of the carriage slightly, stretched his legs, and pointed to a hidden compartment on the carriage. Fang Jun didn't know why, so he opened the hidden compartment, opened the drawer, and took out a small wine jar.

When the mud seal was opened, a strong aroma of wine came to the face.

Is this to sit and drink and have a long talk?
