Xue Wanche glared at Wei Si'an, but said nothing and pulled Fang Jun to sit down.
Fang Jun had no choice but to sit down. He smiled at all the princes-in-law first, held his fists in greeting, and finally said to Zhi, "I haven't seen Mr. An Guo for many days, so I miss him a little."
The two of them had a very good relationship in private, so Zhi lost his mind and said with a smile: "After the banquet later, we will find a place to have a drink."
Fang Jun nodded in agreement.
The table was full of concubines from the two generations of the Tang Dynasty. Only these two people met for a small gathering after the banquet. They didn't take anyone else seriously, and the others didn't show any sign of dissatisfaction.
Among the two existing generations of consorts, only Fang Jun and Ashina Sheer, who had lost his mind and was seriously ill in bed, earned the title of Duke of the country through practical military service. Although the others, such as Chai Lingwu and others, also inherited the title of their fathers,
But he only has a title but no real power, which is far from those of these people.
Although they sit at the same table, their status and power are worlds apart.
With a smile on his face, Helan Sengjia stood up and took Fang Jun's hand: "Erlang's merits are in the country, and Jian is in the emperor's heart. He should take the seat."
He sat in the front seat, making Zhi lose his ability to think. Fang Jun was beside him, and he felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
Fang Jun pressed Helan Sengjia's shoulder with his backhand and said with a smile: "You don't have to be like this, Governor Helan. You have high seniority and seniority, so you should be in the first place. It's natural for us to accompany you."
It’s just a meal, what’s the point of having to take the first place?
Whoever wants to be in the limelight will come, Fang Juncai is too lazy to fight for this...
Helan Sengjia had no choice but to do it and said with a smile: "How dare you pretend to be an elder in front of Erlang? Chu Shi will enter the Jinwu Guards in a few days, and Erlang needs to give him some advice. I'll toast Erlang a few drinks later. I'm drunk today.
Just rest."
As soon as this statement came out, many surprised eyes turned to Fang Jun and Helan Sengha.
Nowadays, Fang Jun "checks the Jinwu Guards General" and is responsible for the formation of the Jinwu Guards. Although he will definitely not be the Jinwu Guards General in the future, how can the army formed by him erase his traces?
Moreover, everyone now knows that the Left and Right Jinwu Guards will be the main force of Su Wei Chang'an. They are all trying their best to find a position in the Left and Right Jinwu Guards, and they will do whatever they can to make connections through favors. However, there are only a handful of people who can actually join the Jinwu Guards.
.
How can the Helan family be so virtuous?
But thinking more deeply, although the Helan family was deteriorating and prosperous, they had a good widow. Wu Shunniang was Wu Meiniang's sister, and Wu Meiniang was deeply favored by Fang Jun, so Wu Shunniang offered to find a job for the Helan family.
It's just a matter of spending more time...
Moreover, in addition to being a "good princess", Fang Er is also known as a "good wife and sister". If the Helan family can use Wu Shunniang to establish a connection with Fang Er, there is hope for the family's revival...
Fang Jun felt that Helan Sengjia was a bit annoying. Who doesn't know that it is difficult to enter the Jinwu Guard? Your children can get in and just take advantage of it, but they don't know how to keep a low profile and instead show off everywhere. Is there something wrong with their brains?
Zhi lost his mind and was the oldest, a rough-looking Turkic man with gray-green eyes full of teasing smiles. He patted Fang Jun's arm, leaned closer and laughed softly: "It's normal for a man to sleep in flowers and stay in Liuben, but he can't
Be too good to women, otherwise you will inevitably become arrogant due to favors, and in the end it will be you who will suffer."
Fang Jun nodded: "I've been taught a lesson and I'll deal with it later."
Zhi lost his mind and was stunned, so he listened to the advice? However, even though he was a Turk, he had a delicate heart, otherwise he would not be trusted and favored by Emperor Taizong. As soon as his mind turned, he understood, and said curiously: "You kid
Have no good intentions?"
"How can we clean it up thoroughly without getting it under our hands?"
"Mom, that's so insidious! You're a bad boy."
Zhi lost his mind and clicked his tongue, and glared at Fang Jun depressedly. How could a good boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes learn such bad habits?
Fang Jun said with a smile: "Some people are shameless, then tear off their face. How can this become sinister? It is clearly the style of your Turkic people, simple and direct, killing Kulie, and your style of Anguo Gong.
ah."
"Go to hell. I have been upright and upright throughout my life. Even Emperor Taizong praised me for being "loyal and upright." How could I be so full of bad intentions like you? Don't tarnish my reputation!"
"How about asking your fourth child to come to Jinwu Guard?"
"...Although you are no longer a son of a man, you still have some skills. It doesn't hurt to let that bastard of mine learn from you."
Fang Jun looked disdainful: "Hypocritical."
Zhi lost Si Li smiled brightly: "We Turks are very straightforward. If you give me benefits, you are a good person. Whatever you say is right."
Although he holds a high position and is deeply trusted by Taizong and His Majesty, he is a Turk after all. He has always been incompatible with the merit system of the Tang Dynasty. The success of his heirs depends entirely on the kindness of the emperor. Although he started at a high level, it is difficult to reach the top after countless years of experience.
High position.
If you go around for this purpose, you will inevitably be suspected of "private communication and secret connection". As a foreign general, it will be almost fatal.
It's completely different when someone like Fang Jun takes the initiative to support him...
Xue Wanche came over and winked: "Where will you go after the banquet? If you go to Pingkangfang, can you take me with you?"
Zhi lost his mind and shook his head: "If you want to die, don't involve us! What if someone from your family finds out and makes trouble to His Majesty?"
Princess Jiujiang has a strict, upright character and is meticulous. When such a person makes trouble, he will win the sympathy of others. He will think that he is the right party without asking to find out the inside story. If there is a big trouble, who can bear it?
Fang Jun said, "It doesn't matter. If the courtesan from Pingkangfang teaches the public house in Wu'an County, and when the public house in Wu'an County becomes familiar with it and masters it, he can go home and work hard in front of Princess Jiujiang.
The Princess of Jiujiang will be delighted, she knows the taste after eating the marrow, and maybe she will thank us later."
"Pfft...haha, cough cough..."
Zhi lost his mind and couldn't hold back his laughter until his face turned red. However, he couldn't laugh at the banquet, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
Xue Wanche also blushed, thought for a while, and said seriously: "I think it makes sense! You don't know, His Highness Jiujiang is very old-fashioned during sex, which makes me very nervous and I don't know what to do..."
"Stop, stop, stop! Can you talk about this kind of thing here? If Princess Jiujiang finds out, won't she want to cause trouble for me? Let's go back to Pingkangfang and elaborate..."
…
The three people were whispering here, and others couldn't hear what was said carefully. They could only see that the three of them were beaming and very happy.
The atmosphere on the table was a little awkward.
As Chai Lingwu drank tea one cup after another, he always felt that Fang Jun and the other three were talking and laughing in low voices. He was talking about it. Could it be that he was talking about his own Princess Baling? Although Princess Baling denied the rumors about her and Fang Jun, Chai Lingwu felt that it was very likely that he had something to do with it.
It was true that Qi Ba happened. I felt depressed, ashamed and angry, but I didn't dare to say anything.
Could it be that Fang Jun was losing his mind with Zhi, and what was Xue Wanche showing off to?
What if it was about his bedtime with Princess Baling...
Chai Lingwu was sitting on pins and needles, wondering whether he should just call in illness and leave?
Fortunately, the banquet was held at this time, and fine wine and delicacies were served like water. All the ministers and the royal family drank to their heart's content in the Liangyi Hall. When they were happy, they started shouting and shouting, making it very lively.
Zhou Daowu, who had been silent for a while, hesitated for a while, finally plucked up the courage, raised his glass and smiled at Fang Jun: "It's rare to get together in one place, so I'd like to toast Erlang."
The voices of the other people at the table suddenly became quieter, and they all looked at the two of them.
Everyone knows that these two people have serious personal grievances, especially in the past few years when Zhou Daowu and Fang Jun were at odds with each other. Princess Dongchuan even publicly mocked the Fang family. Who would have thought that Zhou Daowu would take the initiative to put aside his past grudges and toast to Fang Jun?
However, we can understand Zhou Daowu's difficulties. Emperor Taizong marched eastward and ordered Zhou Daowu to escort the captives back to the Tang Dynasty by land. As a result, it snowed heavily when they returned to Liao River. General Zhou Daowu was too greedy for food, so the prisoners lacked clothes and food.
For fear of delaying their journey, they drove the captives forward in the snow. Countless people died of frostbite and suffered frostbite. After returning to the Tang Dynasty, not even one of the ten Goguryeo captives survived.
Although Emperor Taizong first rebelled against the Guanlong clan and then died after returning to Guanzhong, the imperial court has been unable to severely punish Zhou Daowu. After he ascended the throne, His Majesty treated Zhou Daowu with tolerance and imposed some punishments, but this also became a stain on Zhou Daowu.
Taking a step further in your official career is as difficult as reaching the sky.
But if we obtain Fang Jun's understanding and take the initiative to seek refuge with His Majesty, then nothing will matter. We will definitely be promoted to a higher rank and entrusted with important responsibilities...
Compared with future and power, what are the grudges in the past?
Fang Jun was not stingy at all. He raised his glass and said with a smile: "All of you here are talented people, why should you favor one over the other? Come on, let's raise a glass together and have a drink!"
"Drink victory!"
Everyone else also raised their glasses, and the atmosphere was warm.
Nowadays, Fang Jun is not the "stick" who was unlearned, stupid and stupid back then. He has made great achievements and is the leader of both the government and the public. He is more like a simple person in the heart of the emperor and holds great power. Although he is not usually arrogant, after all, there is a huge gap in status and he can easily
It's difficult to get close to each other, and because of their positions, they are estranged from each other. They can't "disregard past grudges" like Zhou Daowu. Being able to sit together and have a nice drink today is already a good way to close the relationship.
You won't miss this opportunity.
Zhou Daowu drank a glass of wine, and seemed to feel that Fang Jun had given him face, so he smiled and said: "Erlang's poems are outstanding, and he is the best in the Tang Dynasty. Today is a beautiful day, why not write a poem? Maybe it will become a good story in the future."
Others started to boo, and the lively atmosphere immediately attracted the attention of other tables. When they heard that Fang Jun was going to compose a poem, they quickly put down their glasses and paid attention to this place.
People in the Tang Dynasty favored martial arts, but this did not stop everyone from advocating for literature. In today's world, "generals and prime ministers must be civilized and military" is regarded as the highest standard. If you can't have both civil and military skills, it will be difficult to become a prime minister like Liu Jie.
It is even more difficult to convince the public and make people worship them wholeheartedly.
In this regard, Fang Jun is undoubtedly the one who does the best.
Unexpectedly, Fang Jun waved his hand and said with a smile: "I have stopped writing poems and lyrics for a long time, and I have no inspiration today. I am disappointed."
