Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2692 Pleasant scenery
Not long after passing Hangu, the fleet sailed near Shanzhou, where the Yellow River formed a sharp turn. The mountains on both sides of the river were criss-crossed and the current was turbulent. The fleet had to slow down and travel slowly.

In the evening, the fleet arrived in Jiyuan. The river channel was sometimes wide and sometimes narrow.In the narrow place, the water waves are held by the mountain walls, and the mountain walls on both sides seem to come face to face.

It was dusk at this time, the fleet crossed a steep gorge, the river in front of them was wide open, and the sun was about to fall in the western sky. The blood-like sunset not only dyed the clouds in the world blood red, but even the mighty river was full of red through.

The sun sets on the long river, and the river is surging.

The fleet descended at a place with a wide river and gentle currents, and sailed slowly. The soldiers and sailors sorted out the utensils on board and made some adjustments. They just took advantage of this opportunity to have dinner. If the moonlight was bright at night, they would have to sail overnight.

In the cabin, a group of nobles sat around the table, and all kinds of fresh river dishes were served at a regular price.

Du He was surprised and said: "We are sitting on a warship after all, it's no different from going on an expedition. I didn't expect to have such good food?"

The princesses were also puzzled by this.

After all, seeing those sailors and soldiers on the ship who were orderly and murderous, it made people subconsciously think that this trip was not a tour of mountains and rivers, but an expedition with the army.

What's more, the army is crude, the soldiers are vulgar, and it's enough to fool around casually. How did you expect that there are various colors, colors, fragrances and tastes?

Fang Jun opened a jar of rice wine and said with a smile: "I don't know, I'm a greedy person. When marching, it's true that climbing ice and lying in the snow will disregard life and death, but in ordinary times, you always want to eat a good bite. The dishes may not be good. It must be delicacies from mountains and seas, but it must be prepared carefully and tastes good. Therefore, the Huotoujun who is usually with him has practiced good cooking skills. This time we went to Jiangnan to visit the mountains apart from the official business of His Royal Highness Wei Wang. Playing with water, how dare you treat you nobles slowly?"

Du He was very excited immediately, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "It's so good! If Fang Erlang worked hard on a warship and took the lead, it would really make me ashamed. Knowing how to enjoy like this is like a child of our aristocratic family! "

His attitude towards Fang Jun is actually very tangled, there is envy and hatred, and there is also some admiration. In any case, as a child of a family who has worked hard in the army for several years and made such great achievements, who would not be envious?That is a real meritorious service, everything is enough to seal his wife's shadow, and the sky will go straight up!
At the same time, there is also more inferiority complex.

They are also playboys, and they were playmates with the urine mud back then, why did they suddenly become so good?

Seeing Fang Jun’s enjoyment side now, I suddenly feel that “it’s nothing more than that”, and my heart immediately warms up...

Princess Chengyang's face was cold, she glanced at her husband, and curled her lips.

Not promising...

Among the people present, Du He was the only one who didn't fit in. At this moment, he gradually blended in, and the atmosphere suddenly became relaxed and comfortable.

When you go out, you don't have to follow so many royal etiquette and rules. Everyone sits in a circle, drinking and drinking interlaced, enjoying themselves.

After drinking for three rounds, Li Tai put a piece of steamed carp into his mouth to chew, and asked Fang Jun, "Erlang was on the Tongguan waterway before, why did Erlang argue with Qiuying? Well, it may even lead to the impeachment of those censors who are idle and have nothing to do, it is really unnecessary."

The wine table suddenly fell silent, and the rest of the people also looked at Fang Jun.

For a long time, people in the world have called Fang Jun a "stick", roughly because of his domineering behavior and domineering personality.

But for those who are close to him, they know that this is definitely not Fang Jun's nature, but just one of his means.

His profound strategy and honest temperament are not enough for outsiders to understand.

It is really incomprehensible to be so tyrannical and powerful in the Tongguan waterway before...

Fang Jun took a sip of his wine, sighed softly, and said with a wry smile: "It's not because I'm used to being domineering, but because I deliberately want to make this matter aroused. If there is impeachment by the imperial censor, it would be great."

Du He and the princesses were in a daze, not knowing why.

There are still people in this world deliberately provoking those censor officials, who are eager to be impeached and then hurry up?
Li Tai was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized, and said in a deep voice, "You mean... this Qiu Yingqi intends to harm you?"

Fang Jun nodded, and said: "Qiu Yingqi was originally a school lieutenant in Zhechong Mansion, Jiannan Road, but he was transferred back to Chang'an just after Wei Chen decided to go to the south of the Yangtze River with His Highness. ..."

At such a time, it is self-evident that the intention behind the transfer of the children of the Qiu family, who have been sent to other places and have a deep hatred with Fang Jun, back to Chang'an.

Li Tai frowned: "Du Zhijing is so courageous! But how can Erlang let this document be sent to Jiannan Road?"

He always thought that the entire military department was under Fang Jun's control, but he never expected that there would be such an insider as Du Zhijing.

Then he glanced at Du He.

Du He was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "This matter has absolutely nothing to do with my minister! Your Highness should know that although Du Zhijing's grandfather, Du Yan, is my father's uncle, he and Weichen are considered cousins, but Du Yan and my father The hatred is as deep as the sea, although I have persuaded His Majesty to forgive Du Yan's crime, but I have never had any contact with him in private, no one in Fangling Du's family wants to see Du Yan, who is ungrateful and murders his relatives!"

Li Tai suddenly realized.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, both Du Chuke and his uncle Du Yan were arrested by Wang Shichong.Du Yan once had a feud with Du Ruhui, so he slandered Wang Shichong, killed Du Ruhui's brother, and imprisoned Du Chuke, making Du Chuke near death.After His Majesty Li Er destroyed Wang Shichong, Du Yan argued that the crime should be punished. Du Chuke asked his elder brother Du Ruhui if he could spare his uncle from the death penalty.

However, the enmity among them cannot be resolved by saying "connected by blood", and the two families will never communicate with each other.

Du Zhijing is Du Yan's grandson, although he is also a descendant of the Du family in Fangling, he has never been favored by Du Ruhui's branch...

Fang Jun smiled and said, "Because this document was signed by Wei Chen himself."

Li Tai immediately understood that Du Zhijing was not Guan Long's inner ghost hiding in the military department, and had already been subdued by Fang Jun...

But he was still puzzled: "Since Erlang knew that the purpose of Qiu Yingqi's transfer back to Guanzhong was to deal with you secretly, why did he allow them?"

Fang Jun showed a smile, held the pot to pour wine for Li Tai, and asked: "Your Highness thinks it is easier to guard against an enemy who is invisible, intangible, and ignorant in the dark, or is it easier to guard against an enemy who thinks he is ignorant, but in fact But it’s easy for an enemy whose every move is under the nose?”

With the feud between him and Guan Long, it is impossible to resolve it, but with the temperament of Guan Long's gang of veteran aristocrats, it is almost inevitable to assassinate him secretly. As long as he seizes the opportunity, he will definitely kill Fang Jun .

This crisis always exists, so why not expose Guan Long's hidden moves to his own eyes?

In the past, one had to be on guard against the dead soldiers of Guanlong's family at all times, because one didn't know where the killing move was and when the killing intent would suddenly appear, but now one only needs to keep an eye on Qiu Yingqi...

Li Tai suddenly realized, he couldn't help but raised his thumb, and praised: "Great!"

Immediately he turned his head to look at Du He again, and warned: "Erlang is able to tell such calculations frankly because he regards us as a trustworthy person. You have to be careful and don't leak this matter, otherwise you won't be able to use it." If the elder brother of the crown prince settles accounts with you, this king will not spare you!"

Du He was not angry either, and swore to the sky: "Don't worry, Your Highness, the humble minister now has the power to assist the crown prince, and Fang Erlang is naturally a comrade in arms fighting side by side. How can he do stupid things like self-destroy the Great Wall? If there is a word leaked, let him The five thunderbolts of the humble minister will destroy the heavens and the earth!"

Li Tai said displeased: "It's just a warning, why make such a poisonous oath?"

Du He said submissively: "Your Highness has taught you the lesson, my humble minister Meng Lang..."

Li Tai clicked his tongue, feeling dissatisfied, but didn't say any more.

He believed that Du He was not a fool, and he could distinguish between the important and the important, even if he informed the nobles of Guanlong, he would not get any benefit, and instead offended Fang Jun and the prince, the loss outweighed the gain.

The most important thing is that Princess Chengyang is at the banquet, if he speaks too seriously, it will make Chengyang look bad...
