Suppressing the discordant voices in the court, Li Chengqian ordered someone to rush Qin Huaiyu back from the military camp, asking Qin Qiong to explain to him the urgency of the matter and some things that needed attention and precautions, and ordered Qin Huaiyu and others to send troops immediately the next day.
!
Saving people is like putting out fires, not to mention not only the tens of thousands of elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, but also His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty! For the sake of the country and the country, now we don’t care whether others will suspect any more unscrupulous ideas, and send troops as soon as possible.
The situation at the border may not happen, but even if it does, it will be better, right?
While people who didn't know the details were speculating, wondering, and even secretly insulting and slandering him, Qin Huaiyu accepted the title of commander-in-chief without any room for speculation and had no time to delay, and left the capital in a hurry.
After sending Qin Huaiyu away from the capital, Changsun Huan and Du He vaguely understood the reason why Qin Huaiyu led the army from Fang Yiai. When they criticized the emperor's father-in-law and the emperor's uncle, they couldn't help but worry about their brothers and friends.
In addition to Qin Yu who is about to go to the battlefield, Xue Rengui and Cheng Hualiang were also among those who had accompanied Li Shimin on the expedition earlier!
The most worrying thing is Cheng Huailiang. I am afraid that this kid will become red-blooded. Not only can the military orders not control him, but even his father may not be able to call him back!
Du He and Changsun Huan followed Fang Yiai to the small courtyard to visit Feng Tiejiang and Sun Yunniang.
The three of them agreed that Ye Haosheng would take good care of the family members of the four people who were not in the capital, including Lu Yi, so that the four of them could feel at ease outside.
This time, Li Chengqian was tough and somewhat unreasonable in sending the Second Route West Expedition Army, which would cause quite a stir in the capital.
The envoys of the Three Kingdoms of Baekje may not not inquire about the reasons everywhere. In order to gain some benefits for themselves, they are also indispensable for activities everywhere.
No matter in the past life or in this life, Fang Yiai did not hope that they could seek favors from their own country, otherwise he would not have pushed Hou Zanjun to join the navy in the first place.
It's a pity that although there was a precedent of blackmailing Tibet before, the people of Honglu Temple, who were less influenced by him, still adhered to the elegant demeanor of the Celestial Empire and couldn't let go of their hands and feet to seek for the country after the prince's explicit instructions.
profit.
Moreover, several of the envoys sent by the Three Kingdoms of Baekje had studied in Chang'an and were familiar with the affairs of the capital and the habits of people in various places. Fang Yiai was a little worried that Honglu Temple would treat these people.
A reasonable sap cannot hit hard.
If the sap is not beaten hard, they will not have a long memory. When Li Shimin turns around and wins the battle, their sweet words and compliments will slip away, and then they will knock Li Shimin out, who is already a little arrogant. I am afraid that Li Shimin's rewards to all countries will be enough.
It made Honglu Temple hit several times as hard as a sap! Didn’t the Tang Dynasty pay to death!
The most important thing is not these, but that their wolfish ambitions will only become stronger! And they will be hidden deeper!
Fang Yiai is currently on the lookout for illness, and he does not rule out the possibility of being sent to the battlefield. Therefore, Li Chengqian cannot let him deal with those disgusting and shameless envoys.
Du He, Fang Yi's good partner in blackmailing, is currently busy participating in the household department's matter of raising food and grass, and it is not convenient for him to be seconded to Honglu Temple.
Li Chengqian could only use the original people of Honglu Temple to deal with the envoys of the Three Kingdoms of Baekje, and then let people constantly remind the people of Honglu Temple that their work should be based on the maximum benefit of the Tang Dynasty. For the sake of the people of the country,
Don’t miss any opportunity to make a profit!
People who are familiar with the books of sages tend to avoid talking about eloquence, thinking that it is a matter of status and belongs to the patent of unscrupulous businessmen who smell of copper.
The people of Honglu Temple were somewhat displeased with the advice that the prince kept giving him. They also hoped that the prince would benefit the country, but they were not businessmen who always talked about profit!
Although Fang Yiai has been in Beijing for many years, the ideological teachings that are deeply rooted in their bones cannot be changed easily. Even when they are flattered by others, they can still remember in their minds that they must respect the country.
The words that put interests first are pretty good.
After all the calculations, Fang Yiai didn't want to let go easily of the Three Kingdoms of Baekje, especially Fusang and Wa among them!
When sending Qin Huaiyu away, Fang Yiai turned his attention to Changsun Huan.
Not only have they known each other for many years, Changsunhuan has been greatly influenced by Fang Yiai. He has been in charge of everyone's money bags over the years and has made everyone live a good life. Changsunhuan's shrewdness and strength are also obvious to everyone.
However, among the envoys who came to Beijing, some of them were people who tried to bully Princess Qinghe at the garden party and were taught a lesson by Fang Yiai.
Fang Yiai believed that even if she wanted to avenge her daughter-in-law again on behalf of Cheng Hualiang who was not in Beijing just to remember the past, Changsun Huan, Du He and she were shouldering the responsibility.
However, he and Du He are now unable to escape and cannot be distracted. The only one who can take the main action is Changsun Huan.
Changsun Huan worked as a casualty in the Ministry of Industry, which also attracted a lot of criticism. At least when they met, whenever he mentioned Changsun Huan, Yan Liben never gave Fang Yiai a look. He also taught Fang Yiai many times what a good friend is.
, let Fang Yiai advise Changsun Huan.
Either give up your position in the Ministry of Industry, get a free title, and live happily. Or, don't rely on the favor of the emperor and the queen, and Changsun Wuji's status as an official, and go to work in the Ministry of Industry!
At home, if Li Xueyan, Mrs. Changsun, and Princess Changle hadn't helped him around, Changsun Wuji, who couldn't afford to embarrass anyone and didn't want to lose to Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, would have opened an ancestral hall to teach his children well!
Although Fang Yiai was surprised that Li Xueyan, the princess of Wencheng who could be said to be the greatest in history, was able to live a prosperous life with her eldest grandson Huan peacefully and peacefully despite not following history? Or was the husband and wife a perfect match?
"Why not? Second brother Changsun has never had anyone around him since he married Sister Xueyan, and he always discusses everything with Sister Xueyan. More importantly, they both really care about each other.
How can two people living together not be happy, harmonious, and happy?" Fang Qingniang looked at Fang Yiai, who was full of doubts, and said in confusion.
Fang Yiai didn't understand women's hearts and couldn't find a point to refute, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with Qing Niang's words.
As for the remarks about "repentant husbands looking for a title" and "rich men become bad", Fang Yiai believes that either the two of them are not compatible at all, or that kind of man is a scumbag and is incompatible with the outside world.
Officials, titles, money and money do not have much to do with each other.
Although life is not necessarily pleasant, Fang Yiai and others can still feel that Changsun Huan is still very concerned about the bad rumors about his pet, who is in the Ministry of Works. Although when everyone persuades him, he expresses in his words
Not caring.
The knot between him and Changsun Wuji cannot be easily solved, and Changsun Huan does not like Changsun Wuji to interfere in his life anymore. Therefore, the more Changsun Wuji wants him to join the court as an official, the more he
The less I want to go.
Before, without the support of his powerful father-in-law, who speculated with him, he dared to confront Changsun Wuji without mercy, let alone now that he had a powerful father-in-law.
However, it would be better if you could live comfortably without having to bear a bad reputation.
Fang Yiai thought that it would be a good idea to take advantage of this opportunity to transfer Changsun Huan to serve in Honglu Temple. The work in Honglu Temple was recognized as leisurely.
When envoys from various countries who have normal relations with each other come to offer national gifts, it is customary to receive them. If they want to apologize for a defeat, they should have a lively discussion about compensation. War compensation must not be less.
With Changsun Huan's ability, Fang Yiai believes that he will be very qualified. At the same time, he can also subtly teach the people of Honglu Temple and let them know clearly that it is related to the interests of the country and does not matter businessmen or Confucians!
After listening to Fang Yiai's words, Changsun Huan was moved, but did not say anything on the spot.
Both Fang Yiai and Du He knew very well that he was afraid that once he entered the court, Changsun Wuji would take advantage of his position to forcibly transfer him to a position he didn't like. If that happened, what would happen to him?
It would be better to just have a sinecure job that is somewhat criticized by people from the beginning.
When leaving, Du He took half a step behind Changsun Huan and made a reassuring gesture to Fang Yiai. He would try to persuade Changsun Huan to agree.
Asking for war reparations openly and honestly, watching the dazzling gold and silver flowing in, is such a super satisfying thing. If you want to do it, you can't do it. Rather than watching others fail, it's better to watch where your brother is.
, isn’t that not much different from enjoying yourself?
Du He is now eager to persuade Changsun Huan to enter Honglu Temple.
In the evening two days after Qin Huaiyu led his army to leave Beijing, Feng Blacksmith died.
Sun Yunniang stopped Fang Yiai from immediately sending people to report the funeral, and asked Fang Yiai to clean Feng Blacksmith's body and put on the shroud. She herself also had people help clean her body and put on the shroud.
Sun Yunniang looked calm and peaceful, but Fang Yiai was sad and uncontrollable.
Sun Yunniang asked her to stay with Feng Tiejiang and told Fang Yiai to come into the inner room after dawn.
Fang Yiai did not dare to disobey Sun Yunniang's last request, so she could only grit her teeth and cry, hugged Sun Yunniang and placed her next to Feng Blacksmith.
He took a deep look at Feng Tiejiang and Sun Yuniang who were lying side by side. Sun Yunniang cuddled up to Feng Tiejiang quietly and happily, which made Fang Yiai feel sad.
After leaving the inner room, Fang Yiai sent his servants to go down to rest early and come back in plain clothes after dawn.
Fang Yiai glanced at the dark inner room. She silently put on the mourning clothes she had prepared long ago and stood outside the house all night.
After dawn, Tiejiang Feng and Yunniang Sun both passed away!
The feelings that I could rely on in my past life and this life, slowly passed away with Sun Yunniang's life in the long night, and seemed to be getting further and further away from me.
Despair and sadness filled Fang Yiai's whole body and mind, but the fatigue of the past few days had been forgotten by Fang Yiai.
