The moment he gave up, Zhang Liang breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed his whole body. The feeling of being on pins and needles and being in danger for the past few days immediately disappeared, and there was even a faint expectation in his heart.
If Fang Jun was broad-minded enough to let go of his past grudges and continue to let him sit in the position of General Youjinwuwei, he would be happy to be just a puppet and immediately betray Liu Ji and join Fang Jun's army.
Handsome but crippled, the feud between the two families is incompatible, but if Fang Jun can nod his head and be willing to take him under his command, how can he refuse? Not only will he not refuse, he will even swear to pursue him with all his heart.
Follow Fang Jun and let him be driven.
Wang Xuance said: "I heard that Duke Yu has passed fifty this year?"
Zhang Liang had a sullen face: "Why, you want me to become an official as soon as possible?" He is willing to be a puppet, and he is also willing to be a dog under Fang Jun's family. The reputation and qualifications of Zhenguan Xunchen are all bullshit. He can be shameless. But let him put it down.
With all the power, one would never want to return home after becoming an official. If Fang
Jun threatened him with this, and he would rather die than give in. Wang Xuance smiled brightly: "Young Master Yu is in the prime of his life, and it is the time to make contributions. If he fails to serve, it will be an immeasurable loss to the empire. Naturally, you can sit on the right Jinwu Guard.
In the position of general, the military system will be reformed in a few years.
After the establishment of the Privy Council is completed, the Military Aircraft Department will be abolished and a Staff Office will be re-established in the Privy Council. With your qualifications and merits, maybe you can also fight for it."
Zhang Liangming nodded. Even if he is kicked away now, someone else will inevitably come in. It is basically impossible to hand over the position of General Youjin Wuwei to Fang Jun. He may not be able to handle another person... If he is honest
Willing to be a "puppet"
", not only blocked the possibility of others airborne, but also the right Jinwu Guard was firmly in Fang Jun's hands, and as compensation, Fang Jun promised to let him enter the Privy Council in the future. Although it feels very uncomfortable to have this kind of fate dictated by others, but
After weighing the pros and cons, Zhang Liang found that he had no choice at all. Rather than being kicked away, losing face, losing all prestige and becoming a laughing stock in the world, it would be better for him to
He is really just a "puppet", waiting for compensation in the future.
It's just that this is equivalent to betraying Liu Ji, but it doesn't count as getting on Fang Jun's boat. Both sides are lost...
"This is a serious matter, so let me think about it for a moment and then give you an answer."
"This is natural. There is no rush in the end. The commander-in-chief can consider it slowly. This condition is valid at any time."
Zhang Liang let out a breath and suddenly felt exhausted.
…
When he returned to the duty room, Wang Xuance saw Master Sun Ren sitting on the floor making tea. He smiled and came to him, saluted and sat down opposite.
Master Sun Ren poured a cup of tea and placed it opposite Wang Xuance, and asked with a smile: "How do you reply, Commander-in-Chief?"
Wang Xuance took the teacup with both hands: "I said I need to think about it, but he knows, I know, it's just an excuse, delaying it to protect his face, nothing more, he only has this way to go, he has no choice." Outside the window.
The branches of the locust tree are lush, and the sun shines through the gaps between the branches and leaves, casting a mottled light and shadow on the window. The summer breeze is cool, and Sun Renshi is very emotional: "The commander-in-chief's love for protection and the kindness of simplicity can only be repaid with death, and there is no other way."
." When Fang Jun appointed him as the General of Youjin Wuwei, Sun Renshi's heart was surging and his blood was running wild. When the emperor ordered and the central government appointed Zhang Liang to come, he was extremely depressed and depressed. Even though Fang Jun regarded him as a confidant, he was still
for"
Sun Renshi, who surrendered halfway as a surrendered general, did not think that Fang Jun would disobey the emperor's order and resist the central government for him.
But Fang Jun supported him as always, and even sent Wang Xuance over, telling him that as long as he kept a low profile, tolerated it, and followed the rules, the position of general would be his sooner or later, and Wang Xuance would be the one to take care of everything. If he was considered one of Fang Jun's men.
, then Wang Xuance is a direct lineage of Fang Jun. This soldier who originally guarded the city gate was entrusted with important tasks after being expelled by Fang Jun. He was in charge of the "Eastern Datang Company" with thousands of people and tens of millions of people.
With the huge wealth planned, having such a person assist you is enough to show that you value yourself.
I couldn't help but rejoice in my heart that it was the right decision to leave Zuo Yiwei and get rid of the Guanlong clan... Wang Xuance smiled, took a sip of tea, and whispered: "The reason why the commander-in-chief removed us was not for our sake."
To die in service is to prevent our humble strength from being buried in the grass and to be able to serve the Tang Dynasty with all our heart.
In the eyes of the commander-in-chief, the Tang Dynasty is supreme, and the interests of the Tang Dynasty are supreme." Sun Renshi knew that what he said was wrong, but he didn't take it seriously: "The commander-in-chief doesn't care about our allegiance, but we can't pursue the national interests without conscience.
In everything, in my heart, since the commander-in-chief always protects the country
If the interests of the Tang Dynasty are regarded as supreme, then allegiance to the commander-in-chief is loyalty to the Tang Dynasty, which is not inconsistent."
"The general's words deeply touched my heart. I'd like to ask you to tell me that heroes think alike, haha!"
Curator Wang Xuan smiled, raised his cup, replaced the wine with tea, and toasted Master Sun Ren. People should not forget their origins, but they should also have ambitions. Fang Jun had the kindness to be simple, and his interests happened to represent the interests of the empire. When everyone gathered
Working together for the prosperity of the empire, with the same interests and like-mindedness, this is
What a sense of relief? Master Sun Renshi didn't feel the slightest bit depressed about having his position as general "stolen." He was resentful and said with a smile: "You and I are of one mind, working side by side, to take care of this family for the general. It doesn't matter who is the official in name."
, any time this
They are the commander-in-chief's troops and they must obey the commander-in-chief's orders."
Wang Xuance believed deeply: "As long as the left and right Jinwu Guards obey the command of the commander-in-chief, the commander-in-chief's foundation will be as stable as Mount Tai, and those monsters and monsters will be nothing more than clowns. Wherever the blade is directed, they will disappear in an instant."
Master Sun Ren nodded heavily: "That's exactly what I mean!"
*****
In summer, Qinghai Lake has rippling blue waves, waterbirds gathering in the air, green grass on the shore, and mountains stretching across the horizon. Countless mountain peaks are still covered with white snow, the sky is clear, and the wind is sunny. The snow-white sheep gather slowly on the grass,
The Han caravans crossed the Qilian Mountain Pass and came south, around Qinghai Lake and straight to Fuqi City. They filed into the city from the north gate. After entering the city, they were led by city officials to the north.
In the goods yard near the city wall, cart after cart of goods were unloaded and put into storage. Grain, cloth, medicinal materials, even steel knives, iron armor... The eyes of the Tibetan officials were red, and they were extremely excited as they put the goods into storage one by one and counted the quantities.
, register and make a list. With these heavy equipment, the Gar family’s
The army's combat strength has increased by at least 30%. As long as it does not attack Luoche City, it is enough to march sideways in the Qinghai Lake area.
The leader of the Han caravan was now becoming Lu Dongzan's guest. Lu Dongzan's face had an obvious plateau red color, his body was thin and his energy was strong. He was kneeling on the mat in front of the window, with the warm sunshine outside the window.
It felt very comfortable on my body. I took a sip of tea and praised: "What a good tea, you guys?"
The Han people have always been able to make such ingenious things, but it is a pity that we, the Tubo people, live in a corner, with little land, poor people, withered products, and not even enough to eat, so we really cannot afford to enjoy such God-given things." Opposite.
Pei Xingjian has a handsome face and outstanding demeanor. Even in a wind-swept place, the brocade robe on his body is still spotless. His demeanor as a young man from an aristocratic family is fully demonstrated. His posture when drinking tea is dignified and elegant, and there is no trace of stain on his body.
There is no rotten atmosphere immersed in the officialdom. "The way of heaven is like a bow and bow. Those who are high suppress it, those who are low lift it. Those who have more will destroy it, and those who have less will take it with them. The way of heaven damages the more than it is and makes up for the deficiencies. Heaven has it.
Black and white, the waxing and waning of the moon, no one is perfect, it is the way of heaven to communicate with each other. The Tang Dynasty is rich and abundant in materials, but Tubo also has the war horses and yaks that the Tang Dynasty desperately needs. As long as the two countries are harmonious and friendly, exchanges will increase.
Naturally, everyone gets what they need and everyone gets rich. However, the lords of Luosu City are greedy.
, I only know that the scimitars and horses are plundering at will, and the border between the two countries has been stirred up. The war is everywhere, and I don't know what to say." Lu Dongzan felt the same and sighed: "They are just a group of short-sighted rats. They only know the power of their own swords.
The folk customs are fierce, but they have no idea of the power of the weapons of the Tang Dynasty and the strength of their strategies. They not only plundered the Tang Dynasty, but also me
This prime minister is also a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh, and they need to be eliminated urgently."
I feel very emotional in my heart. To this day, Songtsen Gampo has unparalleled prestige and a dominant family. He cannot tolerate any force that may challenge his status. The Gar family is his biggest potential threat, so all kinds of suppression will naturally go ahead.
Arrive
. It’s a pity that when he went to the Tang Dynasty as an envoy, he failed to successfully marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, with such achievements, he could win over more nobles. The lord and Songtsen Gampo were fighting against each other. Why was he expelled from Luoshu City like this now?
,
Are you as panicked as a dog that has lost its home? Thinking of the marriage, naturally you also think of Fang Jun who caused such a big deal in the past. He was a rare hard-liner in the Tang Dynasty, and even said tough things like "No marriage, no tribute, no compensation."
words, the result is even inclined to get married
In exchange for friendship between the two countries, Emperor Taizong had to bow to the pressure of public opinion and reject Tubo's marriage proposal.
In some respects, the reason why the Gar family is in today's downturn is due to Fang Jun... Pei Xingjian put down his teacup and straightened his back. The momentum of a feudal official was clearly evident: "Those who strike first, those who strike later,
Be controlled by others, this is the wise words of the sages. Nowadays, the Gar family is being suppressed everywhere. The more they accept it, the more they encourage the arrogance of the lords in Luoshe City. It is time to fight back and let the lords who are lying on a plain diet feel the influence of the Gar family.
Strong and prosperous. The Duke of Yue once said something that has always been regarded as a guideline by my subordinates: Unity through unity
If we fight for unity, we will forget about unity; if we strive for unity through struggle, unity will remain.”
He is now the Deputy Protector of the Anxi Protectorate and has a long history. He has traveled thousands of miles to Qinghai Lake just to transport food, supplies, and weapons and support Ludongzan in his fight against the oppression of Luoche City.
Lu Dongzan was silent for a while. The more he thought about it, the more he felt the truth contained in this sentence. He praised: "The Duke of Yue is a contemporary philosopher with unparalleled knowledge. I am not as good as him." This is the difference between Tang Dynasty and Tubo.
Although Tubo was powerful for a while, had invincible military armor, and had many advantages when facing the Tang army, the two sides were completely different in background. They were just a playboy of the Tang Dynasty, and they devoted themselves to
He was able to utter such wise words not long after studying, which is enough to show how brilliant and unparalleled the literary governance of the Tang Dynasty was. Therefore, once Tubo went to war with the Tang Dynasty, it might be able to take advantage of it in a short period of time, but once the situation fell into a stalemate,
With its huge heritage and vast territory, the final winner must be Datang.
