The Fang family has two fathers, and is also married to a princess. There is no other so-called top family than this. Moreover, both father and son of the Fang family are the mainstays of the imperial court. Although Fang Xuanling has returned to his hometown after serving as an official and is currently in the south of the Yangtze River,
However, disciples and old officials were all over the court.
In normal times, perhaps "when people leave, the tea will cool down" and they will not be too protective of the Fang family unless it is related to their immediate interests, but if it is a matter of life and death, these disciples and former officials will definitely stand up to advocate for the Fang family, whether in officialdom or in the military.
, what is important is the inheritance of incense, and besides the competition for interests, there is also humaneness and sophistication. If the Fang family and his son are not in Beijing, the mansion is massacred and looted, they will be despised and bear the burden of "ungratefulness" from now on.
infamy.
What's more, there is a Princess Gaoyang sitting in charge. At this time, whoever touches the Fang family will be feared and opposed by the Li Tang royal family.
Therefore, Wu Meiniang is not worried about the safety of her mansion. She only needs to have her own soldiers and troops ready to take precautions to prevent the thieves from taking advantage of the situation when Chang'an is in turmoil.
However, if Princess Gaoyang is unwilling to be left alone and takes the initiative to provoke possible rebels, the situation will be completely different.
It is true that no one wants to provoke the Fang family, but if the Fang family takes the initiative to provoke the rebels who are red-eyed, the rebels, who may be a mixture of regular soldiers, slaves, dead soldiers, and domestic soldiers, have no way of maintaining military discipline.
calm……
Princess Gaoyang did not take it seriously. She raised her beautiful eyebrows and tightened her pretty face as she said in a clear voice: "Mei Niang's words are wrong. Our Fang family is a double-king family, with a tall and tall Ho Hong, and a resplendent appearance. We should be proud and tenacious."
Character. If rebels come, of course you will not take the initiative to provoke, but you should also make preparations that would rather be broken into pieces than destroyed. Let those rebellious officials and traitors see what it means to be the pillar of the country! If you shrink in your house and tremble,
Wouldn’t that make everyone in the world laugh at you?”
Wu Meiniang was stunned.
After careful consideration, I realized that Princess Gaoyang was not just fooling around, and had a profound meaning. The foundation of a family or a sect, in addition to controlling power and maintaining interests, is more important than the family tradition, family reputation, and the behavior of the children in the family.
.
The Changsun family used to be the most honored ministers in Zhenguan and the most powerful family in Guanlong. Why has it gradually declined and declined today?
Of course, this was due to the emperor's continuous suppression, but more importantly, the eldest son's family had no successors and the family tradition was not correct.
Changsun Wuji was a man of great skill and resourcefulness, but he was not upright. He always played tricks and took the wrong approach. He always put interests first, which led to the Changsun family's family tradition of being profit-oriented and not following the righteousness. His sons Changsun Chong and Changsun Huan were like this.
, Changsun Jun and others might as well be like this.
The way of the world is vast and vast. No matter how many conspiracies and calculations there are, you still have to stand upright and adapt to the current situation.
Fang Xuanling's achievements in the past were not as good as Changsun Wuji's, and his talent was not as good as Du Ruhui's, but how could he always occupy the center of the court and rule the world? It was because he followed the word "righteousness" in his conduct and life.
What is "righteousness"?
But if the wood follows the rope, it will be righteous.
Guan Long wanted to raise military remonstrance and depose the East Palace in order to achieve his goal of seizing the interests of the government. He did not care about the stability of the empire and the stability of the country, let alone whether the common people in the world would be in dire straits. This was "unrighteous".
The Fang family strongly supports the East Palace, and does not make concessions to the rebels who may attack. Instead, they face each other with swords and spears, and the barriers are strict, which is naturally "righteous".
If the wood follows the rope, it will be righteous; if the wood follows the advice, it will become holy.
As long as this "righteousness" can be maintained, the whole family, and even the whole family, will know that when facing a crisis, they cannot seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but should strengthen the "righteousness". Why worry about not being able to establish a righteousness in the Fang family?
?
As long as this righteousness exists, even if the family is in a temporary downturn, it will eventually be able to make a comeback.
"Righteousness" is the foundation for establishing one's body, one's family, and one's country.
…
Wu Meiniang's heart was touched, and she sighed softly, feeling a little ashamed: "I have always thought highly of myself, but I don't know that such blind calculations are just trivial matters. Your Highness, who has such a grand heart and is not afraid to stand upright in the face of danger, is the great way."
"Ha ha!"
Princess Gaoyang clasped her hands and laughed. She had always admired Wu Meiniang for her political and people-centered plans, and she felt inferior to her. Therefore, she asked and listened to all matters in the palace, and listened to her advice. It seemed that she trusted Wu Meiniang very much and was too lazy to pay attention to such things.
In fact, there may not be some jealousy and dissatisfaction in my heart.
How can you not be happy now that you have received Wu Meiniang's sincere compliments and approval?
Then he waved his little hand and said loudly: "Since Mei Niang also agrees with what I am doing, then when someone comes, prepare a set of armor for Mei Niang. Since the men in the family are not here, we two sisters will sit in charge of the central army and mobilize the troops.
General, if a thief comes, he must be killed cleanly to frighten the enemy. A woman will not be inferior to a man, and a beauty is better than a man!"
He is quite high-spirited and can do things without hesitation.

But Wu Meiniang was startled, shook her head repeatedly, and protested: "I don't want it, it's so ugly!"
Princess Gao Yang did not allow her to refuse, and said with a smile: "Such a fun thing, we should do it together as sisters, who is that..."
Just as he was about to call the maid to look for a set of armor for Wu Meiniang to put on, to see how dashing and heroic this charming beauty looked in a suit of mountain armor, but before she could finish her words, she saw a tall and slender man.
The figure walked in quickly from outside the hall.
A suit of bright armor shone brightly under the light of lamps and candles, and each armor leaf looked noble and gorgeous. The red cloak was trailing behind him, and the red tassel on his back was swaying. A beautiful face showed his heroic spirit.
It is Jin Shengman.
Princess Gaoyang's beautiful eyes were bright, but Wu Meiniang on the side covered her face with her hands and sighed: "Crazy, crazy, everyone is crazy! The rebels are about to rise, there are many dangers, but you are playing like a game, really
Heartless!"
Princess Gaoyang was about to speak when she saw a slim figure walking into the hall behind Jin Shengman. She was dressed in a simple palace dress, with a tall bun, a beautiful country, and a dignified style in her swaying steps. She was not the kind figure.
Who is the queen?
Kinderman walked into the hall behind his sister. He looked at Princess Gaoyang who was sitting on the chair. The corner of his eye twitched, and then Wanfu saluted: "I have seen your highness."
Princess Qiong of Gaoyang just snorted, and Wu Meiniang stepped aside slightly. Then she calmed down her temper and said calmly: "It turns out to be Her Majesty the Queen, but I don't know what you are doing with Weiye's visit?"
Kinderman naturally feels Princess Gaoyang's displeasure, but it's no wonder that the romance between her and Fang Jun is known to everyone in Chang'an City. As a wife, she can look good when her husband's "concubine" comes to visit her.
That's weird...
Then he glanced at his sister Jin Shengman beside him with some complaints.
Jin Shengman could not care so much, and pleaded softly: "There is a rumbling in the city, and there are rumors that there are rebels who want to rebel. I was worried that my sister would be alone in Furong Garden without anyone to take care of her, so I took it upon myself to take my sister to the house, and I hope that
Your Highness approves."
She has always been arrogant and arrogant. Even though she married into the Fang family, she rarely had contact with Princess Gaoyang. After all, she was once a princess of a country. Now she was subordinated to others, and she was inevitably uncomfortable. But today, there was sudden tension in the city, and she was really
I was worried that my sister would be alone in the Furong Garden. If she encountered rebels, with her beauty and status, I was afraid that she would not only lose her life, but also suffer some inhumane abuse and humiliation.
Therefore, he could only make his own decision and take his sister over. To do this, he did not hesitate to humble himself and beg her softly.
Princess Gaoyang raised her eyebrows and was about to speak. Wu Meiniang beside her had already stood up and said with a smile: "What are you talking about? It's really because I didn't think well. Her Majesty the Queen is a member of the family. She should take care of herself in times of danger.
Go home to avoid the rebels."
Princess Gaoyang pursed her lips and forced out a smile: "It's exactly what Mei Niang said. Shengman quickly takes the queen to settle it. If your residence cannot be accommodated, you can choose a place in the guest rooms and courtyards of the mansion at will.
Yes, we are all family members, there is no need to see anyone outside."
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Jin Shengman felt relieved and happily thanked her. Then he glanced at Wu Meiniang. This was the person who should be grateful the most.
The two looked at each other, and Wu Meiniang smiled gently and nodded slightly: "Go quickly, don't neglect Her Majesty the Queen."
"Um."
When Jin Shengman left with Queen Seondeok, Princess Gaoyang fiddled with the red tassel on her hair with one of her pure white hands and said dissatisfiedly: "You are the only one who is used to being a good person."
Wu Meiniang chuckled lightly, stretched out her hand to smooth the red tassel on her pocket, and said softly: "We are the only sisters in our husband's room, and Jin Shengman was forced in by His Majesty. Your Highness, please go and take a look at those in other houses."
He is a son of a noble family, his official title, talent and ability are far lower than those of the husband, but he still has a group of wives and concubines..."
