Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3702 The Civilian Strikes Back
Changsun Wuji was also lost in thought.

He has always been proud of his wisdom, which has been verified through countless trials and tribulations since the time when he led the Guanzhong clan to support His Majesty Li Er in the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty. There are only a handful of people in the world who can be compared with him in terms of wisdom. number.

But the current situation made him feel as if he was in a fog, and he was in a daze.Everyone in the world says that Fang Jun is a "stick", but how can he be able to slander him with a mere "stick" if he can get to where he is today?

It is true that Fang Jun's rise has the background of his father and the favor of His Majesty Li Er, but the merits he has established cannot be ignored.Such a person, even if he is not considered "far-sighted" or "unparallel in wisdom", his mind is definitely above the vast majority of people in the court.

But why did he brazenly attack the Guanlong army in an attempt to sabotage the peace talks, and turned a blind eye to Li Ji, who was Chen Bing Tongguan?
An absurd idea rose from Changsun Wuji's heart: the purpose of this guy to sabotage the peace talks is to drag down all the powerful troops stationed in Guanzhong, so that they can't just stand by and put pressure on Donggong with arrogance?

But why?

It is just that the Guanlong army has caused Donggong to be overwhelmed and overwhelmed. If you add those elite troops who have not directly entered the battle after entering Guanzhong, even if the Donggong cannot be completely wiped out, it is inevitable that Donggong will suffer heavy losses. Could it be that Fang Jun dislikes it? The sixth rate of the East Palace and the right guards under his command are too strong, do you want to die more?
Changsun Wuji frowned in thought, but couldn't figure it out.

Fang Jun's behavior is really too weird, completely contrary to common sense...

……

Yuwen Shiji frowned for a long time, his heart was in a mess, and he couldn't help asking: "Auxiliary machine, what should we do with the current situation?"

He ran out of ideas, so he had to ask Changsun Wuji, who was always good at intrigue and strategy, for advice. He believed that Changsun Wuji did not disagree with the peace talks, but he just couldn't accept the leadership of the peace talks by various families.If it really came to a critical moment, it would be okay for the peace talks to be led by Changsun Wuji.

Changsun Wuji pondered for a while, and said: "I'm afraid the Eastern Palace is in chaos now. After all, it was Fang Jun who took the initiative to start the war, and the Eastern Palace is responsible for it. How can those civil servants in the Eastern Palace let it go? Let's take a look first. It’s not too late to worry about the momentum of the Eastern Palace.”

Guan Long wanted to end this "military remonstrance" with peace talks, so why not the East Palace?No matter how big the resentment is, under Li Ji's real threat, it has to be put aside for the time being. The most important thing is to keep the position of the East Palace...

Yuwen Shiji nodded, sighed and said, "That's the only way."

After a pause, he said earnestly again: "I know what the auxiliary machine thinks, but I still hope that the auxiliary machine will focus on the overall situation. We, the Guanlongmen Clan, have the ability and status we have today. Once we fall into a split, It is inevitable that the strength will plummet, and it will be easy to be defeated by everyone. Today's allies may become tomorrow's enemies in a blink of an eye, and by that time, no one will be able to reap benefits."

The current situation facing Guan Long is not just as simple as the strength of cooperation and the weakness of division. Once the alliance is disbanded due to different interests, it will inevitably be drawn by Donggong and even Li Ji because of interests, and then Turn against each other.

At that time, relatives will suffer, enemies will be happy, and what is the benefit of being reduced to the vassal of all forces?
The eldest grandson Wuji remained silent.

He naturally understands this situation, but he does not intend to expose it so easily. He has led Guan Long for more than [-] years, single-handedly pushed Guan Long to an unprecedented peak, and almost monopolized the power of the Tang Empire.In the end, there was a slight setback, and he was stabbed in the back by these profit-seeking guys, trying to snatch Guan Long's leadership from him. How can this be tolerated?

Even if these people are forgiven in the end, the minimum warning and beating are still necessary...

Seeing the attitude of Changsun Wuji, Yuwen Shiji became more and more worried.

He couldn't believe that the peaceful peace talks that had been going smoothly changed suddenly overnight, and were even pushed to the brink of collapse.

What on earth is Fang Er thinking about with that stick?
*****
The same question was asked by Liu Jie to Fang Jun in front of His Highness the Crown Prince.

This one of the prime ministers who had just been promoted to the rank of servant and encountered the Guanlong mutiny, at this moment, blushing with anger, stood in front of Fang Jun, pointed his halberd and shouted: "Everyone in the East Palace knows the importance of peace talks. It is a matter of life and death. How can you Can you go to war without authorization and put His Royal Highness in a situation where there will be no redemption? I dare to ask, what is the intention of Duke Yue?"

This gentleman must be furious, with awe-inspiring justice, as if denouncing a powerful and traitorous giant who has harmed the country and the people, defying life and death, and being upright...

Fang Jun knelt behind the table, let Liu Jie stand in front of him, spitting and agitated, and raised his hand to cover the teacup to prevent the other party's saliva from splashing, and drank tea slowly.

Liu Ji was so angry that his face flushed and his hands trembled.

He thought that standing on the prince's side, accusing Fang Jun of unscrupulously sabotaging the peace talks and pushing the situation into an unpredictable situation was to occupy the commanding heights of morality, and he would definitely improve his image as a "defying power" official and win the Eastern Palace Civilian system support.

However, he had planned for a long time and made a generous statement, but he was completely irritated by Fang Jun's calm and breezy attitude. This kind of ruthless ignorance made him feel ashamed when he was angry.

So he raised his eyebrows, took a step forward, leaned over and glared at Fang Jun, and said wildly: "It's fine for you to act recklessly, even if you are scolded by the world and denounced as a traitor of the country! But now the situation is urgent, and peace talks are imperative , you are so arrogant to go to war without authorization, it is very likely that our countless efforts will be in vain, what is your intention?"

In the hall, all the officials, civil and military officials of the East Palace were present, and there were dozens of people gathered together. Seeing Liu Jie angrily scolding Fang Jun, many people felt admiration.

Today, Fang Jun is no longer that reckless playboy, but a tycoon with great achievements and military power. Even Xiao Yu, Cen Wenwen and others must maintain respect in front of him.In the past, Liu Jie had always followed Fang Jun, so it is really commendable for him to be so upright and strict for the sake of righteousness...

Fang Jun has always been calm in the face of Liu Ji, but when he picked up the teacup again, he found that there were spit stars floating into the cup...

"boom!"

Fang Jun put the teacup heavily on the table.

Liu Jie, who was spraying happily, was taken aback, and subconsciously took a step back and took two steps away. Seeing that Fang Jun hadn't got up, he breathed a sigh of relief, and the shock just came to an end.But when he saw the surprised eyes looking around, he blushed and felt ashamed and angry.

Why is he so afraid of this mallet?
No matter how bastard he is, might he still dare to beat someone in front of the prince...

Enduring shame and indignation, and eager to regain face, Liu Ji reprimanded again: "In my opinion, the Duke of Yue is simply deliberate. He can't see that the mutiny will end in peace talks. All he thinks about is his own meritorious deeds, but he never sent His Highness Keep your safety in mind, and your heart can be punished!"

This is serious.

To this day, although the Eastern Palace has been facing an extremely bad situation and is prone to overturning disasters at every turn, the entire Eastern Palace is sincerely united and reckless. No one has ever complained of suffering or fear. Unity from top to bottom, internal and external, this is the only way to withstand the crazy offensive of the rebels.

No matter who it is, no matter what kind of thoughts are in their hearts, they are all on the surface, regardless of each other.

Soldiers are more advocating military merits, and believe that the battle until now is the credit of the army, and the civil servants also dominated the peace talks for the sake of profit?

The prosperity of the world is for profit; the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.

There is nothing wrong with pursuing interests in itself, but it is extremely inappropriate for Liu Ji to put this pursuit hidden in each other's hearts on the table at this time and here.

Some things exist in fact, you know me, but once put on the table, the nature changes. Liu Jie is talking about Fang Jun, but he is actually talking about everyone present.With everyone desperately fighting the rebels for the sake of profit, it has nothing to do with loyalty?

Even if that's the case, then you can't say that...

Fang Jun raised his head and glanced at Liu Ji, and was about to explode when Ma Zhou pulled him around.Fang Jun looked over and saw Ma Zhou shaking his head slightly at him, signaling him not to be impulsive. Fang Jun nodded, then threw the teacup on the ground casually, and it fell to pieces with a "snap", which made everyone's hearts jump in fright. He wants to do it.

Liu Jie even took a step back, one foot away, looking at him in surprise...

Fang Jun curled his lips and waved to the servant at the door: "The cats and dogs are barking everywhere, feces and urine are splashed, the tea is polluted, and it makes me sick to look at it. Change me a cup of tea."

All the civil servants in the hall froze at the same time.

This is too much coverage...
