Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2492 The Father and Son Conversation
A mistake that has already happened once in history, how can Fang Jun tolerate it happening again?
He knew very well about Tubo's ambitions, and he was even more clear about Tubo's interests. He would never allow Tubo to succeed again and do stupid things like raising tigers.

After probing each other for a long time, both sides clung to their bottom line and did not let go. Fang Jun felt that there was no need to entangle with Lu Dongzan, so he nodded slightly and said: "Since the Prime Minister thinks that Tang Jun is vulnerable, then I have nothing to say. Said, please ask the Prime Minister to stay here temporarily, and it will not be too late for us to talk after the waiter sent by Tubo Zanpu arrives to send you a letter."

After saying that, he got up and left the table, saluted and said: "The melons and fruits in Lishan are fragrant, and the carps in the Yellow River are fat. It is the time when gluttonous food gathers. You may as well enjoy it to your heart's content. I still have official duties, so I will take my farewell in my spare time." Let’s talk with the Prime Minister again.”

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Lu Dongzan to persuade him to stay, he flung his sleeves and left.

Only Lu Dongzan was left still kneeling in front of the couch, dumbfounded.

How can there be such a negotiation?

After all, you are asked to come and go and bargain, and it is unheard of to throw up your sleeves and leave after a disagreement like this!

Of course, from Fang Jun's tough posture, he realized that what he said might be true, the Arabs really lost and returned home.

Lu Dongzan held his teacup, fell into deep thought, and couldn't help feeling annoyed after a while.

If it hadn't been for too many delays along the way, and failed to reach Chang'an at the beginning of the Arab war, how could they be so passive at this moment?I'm afraid it's not just that I don't believe that the Anxi Army can severely defeat the Arabs, but even the Tang himself lacks confidence in this battle.

As long as I can arrive in Chang'an earlier, under the coercion and temptation, maybe the Tang people will agree to Tubo's conditions.

What a missed opportunity...

*****
Coming out of the post station, Fang Jun originally planned to go to the academy to have a look, but the wound on his shoulder blade was painful, and he had to go back to the city for fear of infection.

Wu Meiniang went to Chengnan Wharf, Princess Gao Yang took Xiao Shu'er into the palace and asked the imperial doctor to check her pulse and give birth to her, and Kinderman went to her sister's residence, and the backyard of Nuo Da was actually very quiet.

Seeing Fang Jun frowning, Qiao'er felt very uncomfortable, so she hurriedly stepped forward to wait for him to take off his clothes, untied the gauze on the wound, saw the newborn's skin was faintly red, and hurried to call the doctor in the mansion over .

The doctor checked carefully, and thought there was nothing serious, so he didn't need to be cautious, so he used a sterilized knife to cut open the red flesh a little bit, and saw that the inside was not festered, so he was completely relieved, and gave him a careful examination again. Put medicine on the wound and bandage it up.

After finishing the dressing, Fang Xuanling walked in with his hands behind his back.

The doctor hurriedly stepped forward to salute, seeing Fang Xuanling waving his hand casually, he left.

Qiao'er waited for Fang Jun to put on his clothes, make tea and bring her over, but she also avoided going to the inner house, leaving only father and son in the hall.

Fang Xuanling took a sip of tea, and asked concerned: "Is the wound wrong?"

Fang Jun shook his head and said: "It's just a little uncomfortable, it's best to be careful, please take a look at it, it's not a serious problem."

It's not that he's afraid of death. The medical and health conditions these days are really too bad. It's fine to wait for a traumatic injury. Even if you have any symptoms of infection, your life is in danger. .

Fang Xuanling breathed a sigh of relief, now that the Fang family's hopes are all on this second son, they can't be negligent.

Immediately afterwards, he asked: "Is it your Majesty's intention to compete with Weiwei Temple for the right to judge by military law?"

"Baby suggested it, and His Majesty approved it." Fang Jun told the truth, not daring to hide anything.

Fang Xuanling frowned slightly, and said: "Now you are too popular, why bother to fight head-to-head with Guan Long and those individuals? When you are in your position, you should keep a low profile and fight steadily, and you can't go into battle shirtless like before. too big."

Fang Jun nodded slightly, and said, "Kid, remember."

It's not that he doesn't understand this truth, but who would have expected that Dugu Lan would go out in person and play tricks all the way, catching Cui Dunli off guard and helpless?
He had to go out in person, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with Dugu Lan.

However, Fang Xuanling immediately said: "This time, we have done a good job. The power of military justice is the most important thing. Without this power, the Ministry of War will not be able to completely control the entire army. The world's soldiers? It's just that people in Guanlong have always regarded this power as a taboo, and they will never allow others to intervene, let alone take it away with a knife? In the future, the court should be careful and beware of those people The dog jumps over the wall in a hurry."

Fang Jun nodded silently.

Obviously, Fang Xuanling also realized the importance of the power of court-martial, and saw that this was actually His Majesty Li Er's strategy to suppress the Guanlong Group.

Without the power of court-martial, the Weiwei Temple is useless, and the foundation on which the Guanlong Group relies to maintain is loosened again, which will inevitably lead to dissatisfaction in the internal power struggle, and it may not be far from disintegration.

Taking a sip of tea, Fang Xuanling said slowly: "Next spring, the Eastern Expedition is about to begin. At that time, you should sit in Chang'an, assist the prince in supervising the country, and keep the capital firmly. No matter how many meritorious deeds you have in Liaodong, don't be greedy. You must know the priorities. .”

Fang Jun frowned and asked, "What did father hear?"

Everyone knows that the Eastern Expedition is a gluttonous feast of meritorious deeds. Those who see it will have a share and those who are near will be honored. Any meritorious service can confer a wife's shadow and shine on the lintel. Don't see, let it slip away from your hand?

Not to mention this Eastern Expedition, the Navy will definitely become a powerful army along the way, undertaking more important tasks. As long as Fang Jun can participate in the command, he will be rewarded for his meritorious deeds after the war.

Now that Fang Xuanling wants him to give up this feat in vain, he must have realized that there may be a change in Chang'an at that time, which could endanger Fang Jun's status and even his personal safety...

Fang Xuanling was silent for a while, then sighed: "I haven't heard anything, but you have repeatedly targeted the nobles of Guanlong, and even forced them to the brink of collapse. Could it be that those people will sit and wait for death? They have been fighting for hundreds of years. Since the beginning of the rise before, it has been controlling the situation of the central government, prospering a country and destroying a country, etc., but now it is on the verge of adversity, and it will definitely fight back, and if it is impossible, it will take risks and take risks."

Fang Jun was taken aback, and turned pale: "Could it be that they still dare to rebel?"

"Humph!"

Fang Xuanling glared at him: "These people are just grabbing benefits between rebellion and state-building. This is the case in the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Great Sui Dynasty. Could it be that in the Tang Dynasty, they changed their ways? Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, dogs travel thousands of miles to eat shit, The country is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. After eating enough of the benefits of these methods, how can they change suddenly? There is nothing they dare not do, not only dare to do it, but also do it without any scruples."

Fang Jun groaned and remained silent. Although he was alert in his heart, he didn't dare to believe Fang Xuanling's words too much.

After all, in history, after the death of His Majesty Li Er, King Li Zhi of Jin ascended the throne with the support of the nobles of Guanlong. Wuji was exiled to Qianzhou, saying that he hanged himself on the way, but who knows the truth?

Really killing people, the Guanlong aristocrats with deep foundations have never recovered from a fall, and even when the Tang Dynasty fell, they could not reproduce the glory of their ancestors and restore the grand occasion of their heyday.

But even so, I have never heard that the nobles of Guanlong dared to rebel...

Is it possible that the nobles of Guanlong will realize that they are at the end of the road and dare to do everything to usurp the throne with just a little suppression?
Seeing his son's suspicious face, Fang Xuanling shook his head, and said earnestly: "Don't use your own thoughts to speculate on others. What you think is impossible may be just ordinary to others. The Guanlong Group is too powerful. Well, they hold their own military merits, and they have always acted without scruples. There is nothing they dare not do. When Hou Junji rebelled, do you think it was just Hou Junji who was motivated by profit and acted against the sky? If there were no demagogues from the Guanlong nobles Even support, the old man's name can be written upside down!"

Fang Jun nodded in agreement.

At the beginning, His Majesty Li Er thought that Hou Junji was just an unlucky guy who was pushed out. In fact, if Hou Junji hadn't died on the spot, someone would have jumped out to support him, but Hou Junji died in front of the battle. It makes it impossible for some people to execute the follow-up plan for a while, and they can only be forced to die.

Afterwards, His Majesty Li Er was very angry, but he didn't even dare to investigate deeply. It can be seen that the power behind this must be very important. Even a talented and bold king like His Majesty Li Er was afraid of forcing the other party to take risks and set off a bloodbath.
