Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2801
Fang Jun took a look at Qu Tuquan, and asked with a smile, "Why, brother, you feel embarrassed when you say something like that?"

There was indeed some embarrassment, but Qu Tuquan shook his head and said, "No one knows the virtues of Guanlong nobles better than me. Those people draw a clear line, and the water of the well does not interfere with the water of the river."

Fang Jun nodded.

Qu Tu's family is indeed a Xianbei old surname, but the population is small and the strength is not strong. Among the tribe-based Guanlong nobles, they are really inconspicuous.It's just that Qu Tutong's ability is too strong, so he suddenly emerged and became the number one among the Guanlong nobles.

However, after all, the foundation is shallow. Even with the merits of evaluating Wang Shichong, he later sat in Luoyang after the "Xuanwu Gate Change", frightened the heroes of the East River for His Majesty Li Er, and bought precious time for the stabilization of Guanzhong. This made His Majesty Li Er sit firmly However, when Qu Tutong was old, he was already insignificant among the Guanlong nobles. After his death, the entire Qu Tutong family was excluded from Guanlong.

Qu Tuquan's eldest brother, Qu Tushou, attacked Duke Jiang. As Qu Tutong's youngest son, Qu Tuquan didn't even have an official position. It wasn't until His Majesty Li Er visited Luoyang many years later that he remembered Qu Tutong's illustrious achievements. , to give Qu Tuquan a "Captain Guoyi" as a reward...

So Qu Tuquan didn't have any approval for Guan Long, even if he opposed him, he would have no psychological burden.

The reason why it is a bit embarrassing is because the nobles of Guanlong snatched all the illustrious achievements that his father made in fighting with his life back then, but his descendants did not receive too much favor because of it, which caused Qu Tu's family to receive a lot of attention from the Manchu court. The ridicule of civil and military...

Fang Jun continued: "Now the only way to protect the safety of the crown prince is the complete policy. As long as we fight steadily, the position of crown prince will be as stable as Mount Tai. Even if King Jin has His Majesty's acquiescence, it is only acquiescence. Your Majesty is absolutely I will not publicly declare Yi Chu. In the next few days, Mo will advise His Highness the Crown Prince to reorganize the six ranks of the East Palace, increase the Crown Prince’s cronies, and make it a force to protect the entire East Palace. If you are interested, you can recommend it to the Crown Prince.”

After Jiangnan was assassinated, Fang Jun began to plan this matter.

The Guanlong nobles are becoming more and more unscrupulous, and there is no guarantee that one day they will not jump the wall in a hurry. If the prince is murdered by them, everything will be done.

Especially during the period of time when His Majesty Li Er personally conquered Goguryeo, it would be fine if the war went smoothly, but if the war did not go well, no one could guarantee whether the nobles of Guanlong would make some lawless moves.

In history, His Majesty Li Er's Eastern Expedition can be described as anticlimactic. Not to mention that he failed to achieve the goal of overthrowing Goguryeo, and even contracted a disease, he had to return to the court as a teacher, and died of depression within a few years.

Although the Tang army now has firearm bonuses, no one can underestimate the inertia of history. What if the development of the war is still as unsmooth as in history?

When His Majesty Li Er's health declines and his prestige declines, the chances of the Guanlong nobles launching another "Xuanwu Gate Incident" will increase greatly...

There is nothing that this group of people dare not do.

Therefore, the most important thing is to strengthen the guarding force of Prince Li Chengqian. The Six Rates of the East Palace are the armed forces directly under the prince, and must be strengthened. As long as the prince is kept, the fruits of the final victory will be preserved. No matter how great the advantage is, it will be lost in one day.

Putting this group of little friends into the East Palace Six Rates, not only can they be completely trusted if they know the basics, but it can also distract the families behind them no matter what their tendencies are. Moreover, these dudes were called Chang'an pests when they were young. But after all, his family has a long history of education, and he is a general, and his abilities are not weak.

As long as he can help Li Chengqian ascend the throne smoothly, he will be a minister of the dragon and guard Li Chengqian in the most difficult time. How much merit and favor does this have?
The future of several lifetimes is safe.

But having said that, Fang Jun helped protect Li Chengqian to fight for the crown, which is already a change of fate. Whether he can resist the great inertia of history, he himself is not fully sure, it is impossible to force these little friends to follow him, but to Everyone makes their own choices.

But out of trust in him and the circumstances of each family, an agreement was clearly reached.

As for Yuchi Baolin from Yuchi Jingde's family, Duan Zan and Duan Guan from Duan Zhixuan's family, Yin Yuan from Yin Kaishan's family, these little friends couldn't be drawn over because of their respective positions.

Of course, the political stance above the court has nothing to do with personal feelings. No matter who wins or loses in the end, the friendship between each other is indelible, and there can be some care for each other, so that the losing party will not end too badly miserable……

……

Several people sat around the table, drinking wine and eating food, chatting very enthusiastically.

Li Siwen took a sip of his wine and said angrily: "I heard that you were assassinated in the south of the Yangtze River. I wish I could fly to the south of the Yangtze River! The eldest grandson old thief is too vicious. Now you are the Duke of Yue and Minister of the Ministry of War. Don't worry." Well, the big brother of the court, he actually uses such a vicious method to eliminate dissidents, His Majesty is too conniving!"

Zhang Daxiang on the side nodded and said: "At the time when Jiang Guogong died suddenly due to illness, there were rumors that the elder grandson was jealous of the virtuous and able, and secretly assassinated the killer. Although there has been no evidence, there is no such thing as a storm. Observe his people and observe his actions. This is indeed his style. .”

Qu Tuquan said angrily: "At that time, my father was ordered by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty to stay in Chang'an and protect the acting king Yang You. Later, Emperor Gaozu raised troops to force Guanzhong, but my father was defeated and surrendered after a fierce battle. Since then, Emperor Gaozu and His Majesty have been deeply loved Because of his trust, he served as Minister of the Ministry of War and Minister of Punishment. During the change of Xuanwu Gate, my father fought desperately by His Majesty's side, so he was favored by His Majesty. He sent my father to Luoyang to guard Luoyang as a school inspector and shooter, and to resist Hedong. On the one hand, Li Jiancheng's forces counterattacked Chang'an. Because of this, His Majesty was able to calmly attack Guanzhong, root out the forces loyal to Li Jiancheng, and lay a foundation for the country. One by one, his father's credit is naturally in the eyes of His Majesty, and it has become more and more important since then. Respecting Your Majesty, but it also obscured the light of the elder grandson, the old thief. As a result, in the second year of Zhenguan, my father suddenly contracted an illness while inspecting Luoyang. Before our children and grandchildren could rush from Chang'an to Luoyang, there was news of my father's sudden death. The news... there must be the hand of the elder grandson and old thief!"

At that time, there were indeed many rumors, pointing directly at Changsun Wuji as the murderer behind the scenes. This was not without wind and waves, because after Qu Tutong's death, all the military power subordinate to him was seized by Changsun Wuji, which also became The important foundation for Changsun Wuji to be promoted to "Taiwei".

Regardless of whether Qu Tuquan's death was caused by Changsun Wuji or not, "the benefit is the greatest and the suspicion is the greatest" is the truth in the world...

Fang Jun nodded and said: "That's why a certain person is worried about the safety of the crown prince. Those people in Guanlong have no moral bottom line at all, and even ignore the interests of the empire. As long as it is beneficial to their own interests, there is nothing they dare not do or cannot do." of."

Li Siwen is gearing up: "If we can all enter the sixth rate of the East Palace, then we will become the prince's personal guards. As long as the prince can successfully ascend the throne in the future, we will also be ministers of the dragon! I don't know if we can also get the title of a duke Come on, come out 'one family and two kingdoms'? You don't know, every time my father sees news about Erlang, he can't help but sigh, that kind of envy can't be concealed. Whenever that time, brother and I have to Walk along the wall with your tail between your legs, or you will be caught, and you will be given a scolding all over your face. What is "I have been playing since I was a child, why are other people's children so good? Our family only knows how to eat and wait to die"... "

The crowd burst into laughter.

It's not just Li Siwen?Anyone who gets close to Fang Jun will inevitably be nagged by the elders at home with a few similar words, all kinds of envy and jealousy, and everyone's status in the family will plummet, and Fang Er is the one who caused it!

"If it weren't for you being too showy, why would we be like a lost dog? Come on, come on, three glasses of wine!" Li Siwen suggested.

Fang Jun said indignantly: "You wait until you are worthless, how can you still blame me?"

Zhang Daxiang booed: "Don't talk nonsense, you only care about your own limelight, why have you ever thought about us brothers? You have to be punished with alcohol for betraying your friends for glory!"

What did Fang Junxin say?
But he was never afraid of drinking, so he raised his glass and said, "Since you guys have no conscience, don't blame me for not being sympathetic today. Anyone who dares to put down the glass and stop drinking, I will throw him out of the window." go out……"

Before the words fell, there was only a "bang" sound, which shocked the few people. They all turned their heads to look, and saw that the window to the north was completely broken, and a chair smashed the window and fell to the ground , already dilapidated.

I could only hear someone yelling outside: "Zhang Daxiang, get out of here! If you dare to do something, you have to be brave. You shy away like a tortoise all day long and don't dare to see people, and you're not afraid of losing the face of the Duke of Tan? Mother! ! I have to break your leg today!"

Several people sat in the air-ventilated hall and looked at each other, and then looked at Zhang Daxiang with a simple and honest face.

This guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes can actually cause trouble?
Fang Jun complained crazily in his heart, could it be that the "curse of the brothel" is really a natural talent and cannot be avoided?
