Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 406: Homecoming Clothes?

Chang'an, Fangfu.

At sunset, a distant line of cavalry galloped from the side of the street, with rumbling hooves and majestic momentum, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of the door of the house.

The house was full of chickens and dogs early on.

The Fang family has always been a family of civil servants, and the head of the family, Fang Xuanling, is the minister of the book, Zuo Pushe, the de facto Zaifu, the power of the Tang Dynasty, and won the favor of the emperor.The Fang family made an official career with literature, and passed down poetry and books to the family. The younger generations also read poetry and books, but unexpectedly, there is now a general...

In the past, when the army was victorious and returned to the court, the Fang family just watched the fun, because although the Fang family was high and prominent, there were no soldiers in the army. Whether they went on an expedition or returned to the court, it had nothing to do with the Fang family.Now that Erlang of the Household has been appointed by His Majesty as the Admiral of the Shenji Camp, and after he was a third-rank military attache and returned to court after his victory, the house and the house did not know how to greet him...

In ancient times, the son-in-law of the family fought for the country, and the etiquette in the future was quite complicated and important, but it was too late to ask others for advice temporarily, so the house was in chaos and at a loss.

At the critical moment, the mistress still has the responsibility.Mr. Lu grabbed his waist and waved his hands, and all the servants and maids lined up outside the gate to greet him.Although the specific etiquette rules are not known, as long as the neighbors see the breeze of our Erlang, it is enough!
As a result, all the servants, servants, and other people in the house went out of the gate and divided into two rows on the street, standing in a full street.

Fang Xuanling was sitting upright in the hall, deeply ashamed of Madam's ostentatious demeanor and ashamed to meet people.Isn't it just to show that you have a good son?As for pulling the whole family out as a foil?It's a woman's sight...

When Fang Jun led his personal soldiers back to the Fangfu, he saw this scene where the whole family was dispatched and ostentatious.The family members and servants of the Fang family were in front, and the neighbors who were watching the excitement were in the back, crowding the street, as if watching a monkey show during the Chinese New Year...

The Fang family had a kind of nervousness in the midst of the Turkic iron cavalry charging, and his face was stiff with embarrassment, and he was sweating all over.When he saw the old lady smiling and wanting to hold the reins of his horse in person, Fang Jun was so frightened that he rolled off the horse's back and whispered to his mother, "Mother, which one did you play?"

The Lu family raised his head proudly and said domineeringly: "Why? My son is fighting for the country and sniping at the Turkic wolf riders that are several times his own. That is the merit of the society and the history! The whole family is proud of you, and naturally we have to welcome you with great fanfare. If you win back home, let all the folks in Chang'an see, our Fang family Erlang, that is also a thousand-mile horse with great military exploits!"

Looking at the old lady, there is a kind of comfort and pride that "a thousand-year-old daughter-in-law has become a mother-in-law", probably because Fang Jun has only humiliated her since he was a child, but he has never been able to live up to his expectations.

Fang Jun is a little embarrassed. Although we have made some small contributions, we shouldn't be so publicized, right?We are a low-key person, isn't this making people laugh for nothing?The children of Guanzhong, marching in the army to fight is commonplace. Which household does not have two children to serve in the army?
But what he didn't expect was that when he heard Lu's words, the neighbors cheered in unison, praising Fang Erlang, a young hero, a generation of gods, tall and straight, and unparalleled in martial arts... If not everyone knew. Fang Erlang is His Majesty's son-in-law, and it's hard to say that a matchmaker can step through the door of the house...

Fang Jun smiled wryly and bowed his hands to his neighbors.

When the neighbors saw the main lord leaving, they slowly dispersed, but they chatted from time to time.

"Speaking of which, this room Er is really promising!"

"That's not true, my master heard from the clerk in the Ministry of War that Fang Er killed tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry this time, and that man's head was loaded with more than 100 carts. It took a whole morning just to count the numbers..."

"Eh, mother! So powerful?"

"That's right. I heard that His Majesty has promoted Fang Er. Minister of the Ministry of Rites, although it is a vacant position, but after all, where is the rank? How many are the third ranks who have not reached the age of 20?"

"As the saying goes, three years old look old, but the changes in this room are too great. In the first few years, there were fights all over the street. It's like this in a blink of an eye. Why do you think it's so unrealistic?"

"Bah! What's so unrealistic? The prodigal son can't change his money when he turns his back on it. Besides, Fang Er was a bit muddled before, but he can't be called a prodigal son. Why can't he be a prodigal son? In my opinion, you are just jealous of others' ability!"

Lu Shi deliberately slowed down, pricked up his ears, and listened to the discussions of the neighbors. No one did not praise his own Erlang. He felt as if he had eaten honey. It was very sweet, and he was extremely satisfied!

It is said that they hope their children will become dragons. Who doesn't want their children to be promising?
In the past, this Erlang broke her heart, he was simple and honest and stubborn, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, his ability was so great that he compared the always learned and talented Dalang, why not make Lu Shi overjoyed?
*****
In the main hall, father and son sat opposite each other and smiled wryly at each other.

Fang Xuanling said leisurely: "Your mother has this temperament, she likes to show off, just bear with it."

Fang Jun nodded and was taught: "It's easy to save the child, it's just difficult for the father."

"What's so hard about being a father?"

"Father has endured humiliation and perseverance for so many years. He is really a role model for children to learn, and a lifelong example!"

Fang Xuanling's face twitched, and he almost threw the teacup beside him on this kid's head.Eat leopard guts, dare to laugh at Lao Tzu?

It's really outrageous!
After thinking about it for a while, he sighed again: "Forget it, it's okay to study elsewhere, but just about this... Don't repeat the same mistakes of being a father!"

It's enough that he is suppressed by his wife. Is it true that the Fang family's ancestors have always wanted their husbands to be weak?If in the future, the Fang family's "fear of internal" style will be passed down from generation to generation, and future generations will remember the source, starting from his Fang Xuanling, it will be tragic...

Therefore, Fang Xuanling said earnestly: "After marrying the princess, courtesy and mutual respect are necessary, but you must adhere to the principle, and you must not give up what should not be allowed! Even if your majesty supports the princess, there is no need to worry, since There is a father who decides for you."

Fang Jun rolled his eyes: "Come on, I'm counting on you? Not to mention in the future, just now, His Majesty has transferred his son from the Shenji Camp and put him in the Qingshui Yamen of the Ministry of Rites. "

Fang Jun was extremely unhappy about this.

Changsun Wuji can shamelessly ask His Majesty Li Er for an official for the future of Changsun Chong. How come you Fang Xuanling is so much worse than Changsun Wuji?Even if we can't fight, we will recognize it, but you don't say a word, just watch your son suffer, how can a father do this?
Fang Jun always felt that this old man was a little softer, not only at home, but also in the court.When it comes to Fang Xuanling, there are many praises from all over the world. Everyone admires Fang Xuanling as a gentleman, and admires Fang Xuanling's talent and ability, but how many are afraid of Fang Xuanling?
People who are good are bullied by others, and Ma Shan is being ridden by others. No matter whether they are a person or an official, they must be hardened and even more ruthless!

Fang Xuanling looked at his resentful son, shook his head slightly, and said softly, "Are you stupid to be your majesty? Son, remember this sentence: when your majesty knows that you have suffered a loss, then you will never It will be a real loss.”

Fang Jun was stunned.

"You just saw that you were deprived of the position of Admiral of the Shenji Camp, and you felt that the Shenji Camp was created by you, and then was kicked into the powerless and powerless Ministry of Rites, so you felt wronged, right or not?"

"This... yes." Fang Jun admitted frankly.

The clay figurine still has a three-point earthiness, not to mention Fang Jun?For a long time, he believed that he was willing to give to the Tang Dynasty, the royal family, and His Majesty Li Er, from the glass workshop, to movable type printing, to the "East Tang Dynasty business name", which was just taking shape but destined to sweep the world, every time. at their own expense.He even moved the black technology of "black gunpowder" to Datang to help Datang create the first fire force on the planet, but in the end?

Still can't compare to nephew, son-in-law... How can you not be resentful?

Fang Xuanling laughed.

For a long time, he had a feeling that this son is really too enchanting...

Look at the things he has done in the past year, not only to make money, but also to be brilliant. Whose children have such ability?Simply stunning!
Looking at Fang Jun's aggrieved and resentful look now, I think this is normal...

He smiled and said, "Then do you know why you were placed in the Ministry of Rites, not the Ministry of War or the Ministry of Zhongshu?"
