Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 939
Of course, all the gentlemen here are people who have experienced the ups and downs of the world for a long time, and they can see at a glance that Changsun Wuji has no good intentions.

Why did Fang Jun recommend himself to go to the south of the Yangtze River to serve as the general manager of Canghai Road?

It is the Eastern Expedition that is expected to start in the near future!There is no doubt that Canghai Road will be the main force of the sea route during the Eastern Expedition. Whoever can control the Canghai Road will be able to make great achievements during the Eastern Expedition!
Transferring Fang Jun back to Chang'an as a high-ranking official may seem like a promotion and salary increase, but it is actually equivalent to drawing a salary from the bottom of the pot, cutting off Fang Jun's future in Canghaidao...

This trick is really a bit wicked.

As the saying goes, blocking one's future is like killing one's parents. It's a mortal enmity, but Changsun Wuji's proposal is to allow Fang Jun to be reused. A senior official at the third rank who is not as weak as the crown will be infinitely glorious in any dynasty. This is promotion. , no one can tell what's wrong.

But everyone knows that it is difficult to be an official in the capital. How can even a high-ranking official at the department hall level be compared to the general manager of the Canghai Road Marching who is reckless and can make great military exploits?
There was a moment of silence in the hall, and no one spoke.

It is not good to say anything at this time, if you agree, you will offend Fang Xuanling; if you retort, you will offend Changsun Wuji...

The most important thing is that it is not yet known what His Majesty's mind is.

All the ministers looked at His Majesty Li Er.

His Majesty Li Er held his teacup, feeling a little tangled in his heart.

According to his original intention, he did not want Fang Jun to return to Beijing.Fang Jun's contribution may be ignored by others, but how could he turn a blind eye as the emperor?Not to mention anything else, these millions of dollars filled the treasury and internal funds, and laid a solid foundation for the future Eastern Expedition, which is a great contribution!What's more, once the system of the Shibo Department is confirmed to be implemented, two Shibo Departments in Mingzhou and Guangzhou will be added in the future to control all the maritime trade of Datang under the supervision of the imperial court. To provide a steady stream of financial resources for the imperial treasury...

It can be called meritorious service!

Moreover, I personally asked Fang Jun to take the position of the chief executive of Canghai Road. Now not only have he been removed from his official position, but the Naval Academy he has worked so hard to build has been moved to Guanzhong, and he has to be far away from the south of the Yangtze River. Paoying makes wedding dresses for others...

Not to mention that he bought two seaports for the empire in one trip to the sea, making the great power of the Tang Dynasty shocking and admirable everywhere!

His Majesty Li Er felt a little guilty.

However, judging from the fact that Fang Jun implemented the "guarantee deposit" without the approval of the Zhengshitang, I am afraid that this kid also knows that Jiangnan has now become a hot spot for various forces, and he understands that it may be difficult to continue to stay in Jiangnan. But he was afraid of embarrassing the emperor, so he left a handle in this way to cut off his career in Jiangnan.

It's really empathetic...

His Majesty Li Er felt emotional, and loved Fang Jun more and more.

Which emperor would not like a capable, ambitious, and sympathetic courtier who is willing to suffer?
Of course, His Majesty Li Er can also see Fang Jun's grievances from the "guarantee deposit", otherwise he only needs to write a secret memorandum to express his attitude, and there is no need for such pretentious gestures.

His Majesty Li Er couldn't get angry at all.

Who is not allowed to cry twice after being wronged?
His Majesty Li Er was silent for a long time, and said: "Even so, call Fang Jun back to the capital. As a father, Fang Aiqing should avoid suspicion. Cen Wenwen, Sun Fujia, and Li Ji discuss how to punish Fang Jun , follow the rules and implement the law, it must be fair and just. As for how Fang Jun will be appointed in the future, I have my own opinions."

The ministers in the hall were silent, but they complained in their hearts.

What is "follow-up appointment, I have my own opinion"?That is to tell the ministers in the palace clearly, today I will follow you to transfer Fang Jun back to the capital and give up Canghai Road, but when Fang Jun comes back, how will I appoint him? Don't beep!

Now that you have said this, how can you follow the rules and enforce the law?
If Cen Wenwen, Sun Fujia, and Li Ji seriously punish Fang Jun, I am afraid that you will turn your face in a few minutes...

Sun Fujia used to be the young minister of Dali Temple, and he just took up the position of minister of Dali Temple in the middle of the year. He has been in Dali Temple for most of his life, and he knows the way to be wise and protect himself.Cen Wenwen has always admired Fang Jun, calling him the unicorn of the younger generation many times.Li Ji and Fang Xuanling have a very good relationship, and the two are even family friends. The three discussed how to punish Fang Jun, what can they come up with?

Blatant protection!

All the ministers were envious and jealous, but they couldn't help admiring that Fang Jun did have a reason for His Majesty to protect him.

Changsun Wuji remained silent.

His Majesty has already made concessions, so he can't pursue him relentlessly.Now that my goal has been achieved, why bother to anger His Majesty?He knew very well that his position in His Majesty's mind had been shaken now, and he was no longer the unreserved trust in the past, so he couldn't help but sigh secretly, a little regretful...

Li Ji glanced around, and said: "The Royal Navy purchased two seaports in Lin Yiguo, please give me a charter from Your Majesty."

All the ministers were stunned for a moment, and they all sighed secretly, it was Fang Jun's tossing about it again...

There have been many such things since ancient times, such as conquering a city and overthrowing another country, but buying land from another country with money like Fang Jun is an unprecedented spectacle.You can say that he expanded the territory, this was not fought by the two armies, and the land of these two seaports is really too little, and the places are really remote and difficult to control, which is a bit unsightly.But in the end, he opened up the country and should be rewarded.

In fact, ever since this incident was reported to Chang'an, the civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty had been clamoring and arguing.

Some people think that this is a peerless feat of opening up the territory, and it is not an exaggeration to confer on Fang Jun as a prince; It is useless to take things, and sending troops to station them is a waste of money and food, which is the root cause of the country's disaster...

They argue endlessly, and no one can convince anyone.

Liu Lei, who had just been promoted from Shangshu Zuocheng to Huangmen servant, said: "Your Majesty, I think that there is no need to worry too much about some foreign lands. Although Lin Yiguo has fought against the Central Plains many times in the past, in fact, all of them are my Han family. The remnants, with their hearts full of heaven's sagely power, should show kindness and kindness to their country, why do they occupy people's territory and plunder people's ports, causing their country to harbor resentment and harm our Tang Tianwei? Therefore, the humble minister impeached Fang Jun for plundering people without authorization country, provoke neighboring countries, please severely punish your Majesty, so as to make others like you!"

All the ministers took a deep breath, this Liu Lei is really shameless, it is clearly a good thing, but he said it seems that there is no evil...

It seems that Fang Jun's punches at the beginning really made this person bear hatred in his heart, and he might never forget it until he died.

But contempt is contempt, and when it's time to support, you still have to support it.Few of the ministers may be friendly with Liu Lei, who has always been stingy and contemptuous, but an enemy's enemy is a friend. Since he took the lead in impeaching Fang Jun, someone will follow up.

"My minister agrees that Fang Jun has insulted the state system. He not only forcibly occupied the land of Linyi Kingdom, but also sent troops to kill and wound the army of Chenla Kingdom without authorization. As a result, the prestige of our Tang Dynasty was deeply tarnished in Chenla Kingdom. The people of Nanyang will be deeply afraid. If things go on like this , How can the benevolence and etiquette of the Tang Dynasty educate the people, and how can we be good-neighborly and friendly?"

Chu Suiliang, another servant of the Huangmen, followed closely.

Yuchi Gong stared and said: "It's a big joke in the world! Dare I ask you two, when did the Linyi Kingdom become a pilgrimage to heaven, and when did the Chenla Kingdom become a good-neighborly and friendly state of the Tang Dynasty? Please teach me!"

Generally speaking, when discussing state affairs like this, although generals are present, they will not speak easily.Everyone performed their duties, but it was just a formality. It is good to let the civil officials decide such matters, and the generals are too lazy to care.

But the words of the two of them obviously touched the general's bottom line.

They are all good-neighborly and friendly nations. Do we fighters want to go home and farm collectively?Is the army going to be disbanded?Where should Erlang in the army go to fight for meritorious service and become an official?
Chu Suiliang said indifferently: "The Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette and a kingdom of heaven. The barbarians outside the region have not been influenced by the king's teachings, so they are barbaric and rude. The people, how can you impose force and pervert it?"

Yuchi Gong was so angry that his face turned black like the bottom of a pot, to influence your mother!
Li Daozong on the side looked disdainful, and said to His Majesty Li Er: "Now that Tubo is trying its best, Tuyuhun is ready to move, Xue Yantuo is eyeing, and the barbarians outside the Great Wall regard my Tang Dynasty as a pastry and delicacy, and want to divide my Tang Dynasty to eat it up. Hundreds of thousands The son of the Han family lies on ice, drinks snow and pillows, and waits for the barbarians on the frontier of Chen Bing to invade and kill our people. My minister asked Chu Suiliang and Liu Lei, two sages, to send Xue Yantuo and Tuyuhun as envoys. Being able to make the barbarians willingly cling to the hearts of the barbarians and the majesty of the celestial dynasty is worthy of an unprecedented feat!"

Don't sing high-profile things at home. Soldiers throw their heads and blood to protect the country, protect the people, and expand the territory. How come you have no success in your mouth?
Shameless literati!
Don't yell in this Tai Chi Palace, if you can use your mouth to convince the barbarians, we will respect you as a man!

dare?
