Chapter 369 I just hate him
The weather is about to turn from autumn to winter, and the north is already freezing and windy. But today's Changming City showed a warmth that was completely different from the temperature.

The news that King Guangling Fang Weihan had defeated the alien King Kong was like a storm, directly overturning the public opinion environment in the entire imperial capital.

"Have you heard? His Highness Prince Guangling won a great victory in the north! He directly killed 10,000 alien King Kongs!"

The news stunned everyone who heard it.

Some people were so moved that they cried bitterly: "This is the first victory of the Great Zhou Dynasty in facing an alien army for thousands of years! His Royal Highness King Guangling is truly a hero!"

Some people gathered together and shouted: "How did the foreign cavalry appear in Shangjun? Is it possible that there is a gap in the long wall? This matter must be investigated strictly!"

But no matter what, Dazhou finally felt proud in its foreign war. This news made everyone in Changming crazy.

Restaurants across the city have announced that today’s drinks will be available at reduced prices.

Street vendors distributed various gadgets for free, boats on the Ming River hung bright red banners, and the buildings in the city were decorated with lights. Although it's not yet the New Year's Day, the atmosphere in the city is already better than the New Year's Eve.

Changming Nangong, Taiji Hall.

The emperor of the empire had a rosy face and a happy face. He always had a smile on his face when he saw him.

"My dear friends, in order to celebrate the victory of the East Palace Guards, I have decided to grant a general amnesty to the whole world."

Fang Zun said with a smile.

"All prisoners' sentences will be reduced by five years, and those with sentences under five years will be released directly. What do you think?"

Fang Zun is completely different from his father, the mild-mannered Emperor Fang Tu of Zhou Yuan.

During Fang Tu's 19 years in power, he granted amnesty to the world five times. However, during Fang Zun's fifteen years in office, there was not even a single amnesty.

This record exceeds all the emperors of the Zhou Dynasty in the past thousand years.

His famous conclusion is: Being a prisoner is also a profession, and there will always be someone to do it. If no one in the world becomes a prisoner, wouldn't it be a big mess?

During Fang Zun's reign, all those who committed crimes were in bad luck. You can only be released from prison if you serve the prescribed sentence conscientiously.

Now Fang Zun has proposed an amnesty for the first time, as if the sun has risen in the west.

But ministers can understand.

Regarding the situation Fang Weihan faced at that time, the central court did not expect him to do anything. The task assigned to him was just to hold off the foreign cavalry for a while and not let them escape. As for the loss of the East Palace Guards themselves, it is no longer within the scope of the court's consideration.

A new army that had just been established for a few months marched to fight for the first time. Facing the Sheshan bandits who were twice as many as him, as well as the elite foreign cavalry, Fang Weihan's command ability was considered to be strong if he could not be completely wiped out.

No one is optimistic about the future of this army. Even Fang Xuanmei, who is most capable of fighting, is pessimistic about the rate of Donggong Wei who is still in the cold.

He led a hurried march to Shangjun with the Shenwu Guards on his left and right, just to try to rescue them before Fang Weihan couldn't hold on any longer.

It was an extremely shameful thing for the central army, the main force of the empire, to be completely wiped out within its own territory. Fang Zun was even ready to issue an edict to punish himself.

But who would have thought that just two days after the Shenwu Guards left, news of victory came from Shangjun.

King Guangling Fang Weihan forcibly crossed the Wuding River with 30,000 new troops. He formed a formation with his back to the water, set up three bows and heavy crossbows on a stone platform, and used silt to solidify it.

That day, the wind and sand were blowing up, and the rocks were blocking the way, making it almost impossible to see. The thieves took advantage of the crowd and went straight forward to fight. The front line of the army changed its formation, and heavy crossbows were fired at random at a distance of one foot. Even if the enemy was wearing strong armor and protected by strong winds, they could not stop him. The Vajra crowd was almost completely wiped out...

After Fang Zun read the battle report, he was silent for a long time and only said two sentences.

The first sentence: "Send a feather letter to summon Fang Xuanmei to return to the army."

The second sentence: "There will be a meeting tomorrow to discuss the matter of the reward from King Guangling."

At the court meeting the next day, Fang Zun made no secret of his admiration for Fang Weihan.

"It's been a thousand years, from Qihe Bay to now. A thousand years have passed. I, Da Zhou, have finally broken the rumor that the alien Vajra is undefeated!"

Although Fang Zun tried his best to control his voice, he still couldn't conceal his excitement and excitement.

If everyone’s previous understanding of Fang Weihan was limited to his ability to incite people’s hearts and his disdain for relying on his in-law relationship to get to the top, then now, no one dares to question Fang Weihan’s ability.

He is not a reckless man who does things regardless of the cost, but a truly courageous and determined man. Because it is impossible for a reckless man to win this battle in the Great River Bend.

Among the ranks of civil and military officials, Wang Zhiyou was among them.

Listening to Fang Weihan's brilliant achievements, he felt a sense of absurd unreality in his heart.

Is this really the little brother who was listening to music with me in the brothel half a year ago?
Perhaps he and Shen Yuanxing are the two people who have witnessed Fang Weihan's rapid growth trajectory the most.

When Fang Weihan killed Wang Zhongguang, he was listening to music in the brothel. When Fang Weihan reached the fourth rank and was admired by thousands of people, he listened to music in a brothel. When Fang Weihan was victorious over foreigners and shocked the whole country, he was still listening to music in a brothel.

Wang Zhiyou felt very melancholy.

Isn't this kid Fang Weihan living the kind of life he has never dreamed of?
He couldn't help but sigh.

Forget it, listen to music in the brothel after get off work. After Fang Weihan comes back, ask him to listen to him.

"Where's Wang Zhongshu?"

Fang Zun looked at the position of the head of the civil service, and as expected, it was empty.

Not only Wang Tun, but also Wang Boguang did not attend the court meeting today.

An official from the Uehara Wang family said bravely: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhongshu contracted a cold yesterday and is feeling unwell. He was unable to arrive today."

"Originally, I wanted to ask Zhongshu for his opinion on the issue of King Guangling's reward, but now I feel a little regretful."

Fang Zun didn't care at all, as if this was an expected result.

He couldn't help but shook his head and sighed casually: "Oh, Zhongshu's health is not as good as before, he is still old after all!"

……

……

"Heliantu died in Shangjun like this? Along with his 10,000 cavalry?"

Wang Boguang's complexion was extremely pale.

Since receiving the news yesterday, he has sent messengers three times in a row to Zuo Fengyi to verify the authenticity of this matter.

But no matter how he changed the source of information, the final result was the same:

The entire foreign cavalry army was annihilated, the main force of Sheshan surrendered without a fight, and Guangling King Fang Weihan led the East Palace Guards to a complete victory.

Even if he is as thoughtful as Wang Boguang, it is difficult to control his emotions now.

"How on earth did they fight?! Ten thousand elite cavalry and Xia Hougao's 80,000 bandits were unable to defeat Fang Weihan's 30,000 bandits?"

"The infantry engages the enemy head-on, and the cavalry flanks them. This kind of thing is difficult to do? Why do we have to act alone? So what are the things in the minds of Heliantu and Xiahou Gao!"

Wang Boguang overturned the tea table in front of him with all his strength, his face extremely gloomy.

The tea cup rolled to the ground, and water stains seeped into the floor, like broken light swallowed by an abyss.

He walked deeper into the mansion and found Wang Tun standing in the courtyard.

"Father."

Wang Boguang's face was particularly ugly.

This incident was mainly due to his handiwork. From inciting bandits from Sheshan to attack Fushi, to taking advantage of the situation in the court to force Fang Weihan to lead troops into battle, to the leakage and interference of information on the march led by the East Palace Guards, and finally to the ending of contacting foreigners to kill people with a knife.

He executed every step perfectly, but why... why didn't Fang Weihan die in Shangjun, but instead became a national hero! ?

For Fang Weihan's matter, the Uehara Wang family has invested excessive resources. But in the end, it came to such a result that Wang Boguang's prestige within the family also suffered a serious blow.

Although some elders of the Wang clan did not say it on the surface, they already had doubts about Wang Boguang's ability in their hearts. Aren’t you, Wang Boguang, known as the unparalleled young master with the pearls of wisdom in your hands? Why, I could trick your brother to death at any time, but now it doesn’t work if I change the target of the murder? Experts in civil war, but outsiders in foreign wars?
Wang Boguang was depressed, but he had no choice but to knock out his teeth and swallow it.

Fang Weihan...

He roared in his heart, wishing to kill him immediately.

Wang Tun stood with his hands behind his hands, looking up at the gloomy dusk sky.

He said slowly: "What happened this time is not your fault."

"Fang Weihan's method of defeating the foreign cavalry was extremely clever. He had the right time, place and people. It would be impossible for others to replicate it."

Wang Boguang's head lowered even lower.

"Strategies do not always succeed." Wang Tun said lightly, "Every time you use a plan, it is tantamount to a gamble."

"When you are thinking about a plan, you are gambling with yourself. When you execute the plan, you are gambling with the enemy. Everything is ready, and when the results are revealed, you are gambling with God. If you are not careful, you will lose everything. ”

"The Uehara Wang family has won too many bets in a thousand years, and now it's time for us to lose. The building is about to collapse. Even if you and I try our best to make up for it, it will be difficult to regain the glory of the time when the king was extinct."

Wang Boguang asked in a low voice: "Father, is it possible... that there is really a destiny in this world?"

"Who knows."

Wang Tun said lightly.

"Those magicians in Linyuan Pavilion always value destiny more than anything else, but now they are still trapped in the dilemma of sealing themselves off? If you believe in this kind of thing, you will have it, but if you don't believe it, you will not."

Wang Boguang asked: "Does father believe it?"

"Ah……"

Wang Tun shook his head.

"Xiahou Gao is not dead. When he returns to Beijing, he will definitely accuse us and others."

Wang Boguang was a little shocked. Under the violent mood swing, he actually forgot about this matter.

"Xiahou Gao himself is a fifth-level Mingwu with high cultivation, and Fang Weihan will definitely increase his security measures to prevent possible assassination." Wang Tun said, "Just wait, wait until Fang Weihan returns to the capital, and Another storm awaits us."

"Father, are we just watching?"

Wang Boguang asked puzzledly.

Wang Tun did not answer his question, but waved his hand.

Wang Boguang had no choice but to bow and retire.

"Everything is ready... Everything is ready, just waiting for the spring thunder."

The old Zhongshu Ling whispered to himself.

"If the Wang family no longer exists, what use will this country have?"

A wisp of snowflakes fell on his temples, turning the gray black into frosty white.

……

……

"Your Highness, are you unhappy?"

In the East Palace, Fang Tang and Bilong sat opposite each other. The steam from the hot tea blurred Her Highness the Princess's vision.

"No."

Fang Tang smiled.

"Ninth brother has won the battle, but it's not too late for me to be happy."

"Your Highness, Bilong was once the head oiran of Huanhua Tower."

The maid in green clothes reminded softly.

Fang Tang: "So?"

"So Bilong is very good at observing people's emotions." Bilong said helplessly, "The worries in the corners of His Highness's eyes can hardly be covered. It seems to me that there is really no point in forcing a smile like this."

Fang Tang: "..."

"Your Highness, you should try to trust us sisters." Bilong persuaded softly, "We sisters admire Prince Guangling for a long time, but we are even more grateful to the Holy Lord for his kindness in adopting and raising us."

"The Holy One has ordered us to act as His Highness's support, so naturally we won't have any other thoughts."

These days, both Feihong and Luoying have felt Fang Tang's deliberate alienation from them. Not to mention Bilong who is good at this.

As the people who had spent the longest time with Fang Tang, the oirans could clearly find that Fang Tang didn't seem to trust anyone. Even for the poor officials she supported with one hand and the Luantai Beishen whom she personally appointed and removed, the princess would habitually retain some trust in her hands.
Feihong and Luoying complained about this situation, so they entrusted Bilong to ask Fang Tang about the matter.

But Bilong had no intention of beating around the bush, but chose to go straight to the point.

After listening to Bilong's suggestion, Her Royal Highness the Princess's smile froze slightly for a moment.

After a slight pause, she finally nodded: "Yes, I understand."

Fang Tang realized that he had indeed been focusing on one thing and neglecting the other recently.

The longer you stay in the position of Lord of the East Palace, the more you can find that Fang Weihan's influence is almost everywhere.

The relatives around him admired him, the defending army belonged to him, and the people who supported him supported him even more.

So... is the prince of this empire Fang Tang or Fang Weihan?
Although even Fang Tang herself didn't quite think that Fang Weihan would have any thoughts about her position as the crown prince, out of some unexplainable psychology, she had been trying her best to eliminate Fang Weihan's influence in the East Palace. Then she became increasingly alienated from Bilong and others.

Now after Bilong's persuasion, Fang Tang realized his mistake.

If Bilong and others can't believe it, then who can I trust?
"That's good."

His Highness is quite sensible. Bilong breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why is the relationship between His Highness and His Highness Prince Guangling so unharmonious?"

Bilong asked cautiously again.

Fang Tang was stunned for a moment when he heard this question.

Why do I hate Fang Weihan?

Because he has a close relationship with the aristocratic family; because he has too much love luck; because he is a marriage forced on him by Notebook; because he does not know the good intentions of his own...

Thinking about it this way, it seems that I have many reasons to hate Fang Weihan. With just one of these reasons, Fang Tang could stay away from him forever. But why can't he face him coldly despite taking up so many items?
Why did I subconsciously panic when I heard that he might die in Shangjun?
Whenever she thinks of the disappointment and loneliness in his eyes that he looked at her in front of the Uehara Wang family's residence that day, the girl's heart can't help but tremble.

Sincerely...could it be possible that the notebook could also affect it?
"Your Highness?"

Bilong called softly.

"It's okay, I just got distracted." Fang Tang took a sip of hot tea and briefly suppressed the irritability in his heart.

The girl's fingers holding the tea cup trembled slightly, and tiny ripples rippled in the calm water.

"If you don't like it, you just don't like it. There's no reason why."

Fang Tang sniffed and said stubbornly.

"I get annoyed when I see his face."
