The day after the party at Zhuxuan House, Fang Yunli was thinking hard in the study, thinking about how to reply to the Taifu's invitation.
The three-chamber trial was obviously to impeach Marquis Wu, but secretly, it was actually a dispute between soldiers and Confucianists. Although Fang Yun decided to join the army, he must also consider the feelings of Confucianists.
After thinking for a while, Fang Yun carefully considered his words and wrote the first sentence, "Student Fang Yun, kowtow to me..."
Fang Yun wrote this letter with humility and caution. All focus was on the two words "Yang Hong".
Fang Yun recounted his grievances with Yang Hong one by one. When Yang Hong returned to Beijing, he first dismissed his father Fang Yin for promotion to the nobility, then broke up Princess Fukang and his eldest brother Fang Lin, and finally seriously injured his eldest brother Fang Lin. Fang Yun's hidden expression
, I originally hoped that the three halls would interrogate and deal with Yang Hong. But I didn’t expect that Yang Hong would be defeated but not fall.
Fang Yun thought carefully and believed that the reason why Yang Hong was so valued was entirely due to his strong martial arts. For the sake of his family and his elder brother, he decided to join the army and completely defeat Yang Hong where he was strongest.
In the whole letter, Fang Yun did not mention a word about the relationship between this decision and Wu Mu. He only placed all the decisions on Yang Hong. His words were soft and he always regarded himself as a student. After reading the whole letter,
Extremely decent, can't fault it.
At the end of the letter, Fang Yun expressed his regret for not being able to become the registered disciple of Taifu. Finally, he mentioned Zhang Ying in a casual tone.
Fang Yun stopped talking and didn't say much. Fang Yun believed that with Taifu's ability, he would be able to understand his intentions.
Fang Yun read it over and felt satisfied. Then he folded the rice paper and sealed it.
"Someone, please deliver this letter to the Grand Tutor's residence!"
Fang Yun handed the envelope to the servants in the mansion. A moment later, a fast horse galloped out of the Sifang Hou Mansion.
"Zhang Ying, what you can do has been done. Next, it's up to you."
Fang Yun looked in the direction of Zhongxinhou Mansion and murmured in his heart.
The status of Taifu is respected, and Fang Yun is just a scholar. Their identities are not equal at all. Fang Yun can only recommend Zhang Ying in a point-and-click way. For a person like Taifu, it is fair to say that
Too much, too obvious, will only be counterproductive.
Fang Yun is still very confident about Zhang Ying becoming a tutor. The reason is very simple, because in Fang Yun's memory of his previous life, Zhang Ying became a tutor in the last few years. And now, Fang Yun
It's just a push with my hand that advances the time.
The so-called legal principles are nothing more than human relationships. Confucianism is famous for benevolence and etiquette. I believe that after examining Zhang Ying's character, the Taifu will not refuse this "recommendation."
After the matter of Taifu's gift is resolved, Wu Mu's matter will be relatively simple!
Since Fang Yun decided to join the army of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he expressed his intention to accept Wu Mu. There is no need to have any worries like the Confucians.
Wu Mu had a high status and was able to condescend to Yu Yu. He went to the palace to meet the saints on behalf of his eldest brother and Princess Fukang, and tried his best to win over them. This incident alone was enough to win Fang Yun's gratitude.
After pondering for a moment, Fang Yun immediately started writing a letter in cursive script.
"Come here, prepare the carriage."
After the carriage departed from Sifanghou Mansion, it did not go to Wumu Mansion, but to the Tudor Pavilion specially set up for the generals in Shangjing City.
After some questioning, Fang Yun finally met Li Ji, the examiner of the Seven Kills Hall. It was this person who sent Wu Mu's gift card to the Sifang Hou Mansion that day.
"Fang Yun, I have met Mr. Li."
"Fang Yun!"
Li Ji was drinking in the room when he suddenly saw Fang Yun, his eyes widened with surprise and surprise on his face.
"Come in, come in quickly...it's a rare visitor!"
Among the scholars who participated in the Yuanxiao martial arts examination, Fang Yun and a few other scholars left an impression on Li Ji. Among them, Fang Yun even caused a storm in the city because of the trial of the three halls of Dali Temple, which everyone knew
.
The martial arts test during the Lantern Festival left a deep impression on Li Ji. Li Ji always felt that with Fang Yun's ability, joining the army was the best choice. Fang Yun defeated Yang in the sand table deduction
Hong, deepened his understanding and views.
Fang Yun crossed the threshold and walked in.
"Come, sit down. Drink or tea?" Li Ji asked.
"Do whatever you want."
Li Ji immediately poured a bowl of wine for Fang Yun: "I haven't seen you for a long time after the Lantern Festival. Why did you think of coming to see me recently!"
Fang Yun did not hide anything, and went straight to the point: "To be honest, general, I actually asked the general to come here for something this time."
"Oh, what's the matter?" Li Ji raised his brows slightly, feeling quite confused. With the power of the Sifang Marquis, what else could happen in the capital that would require him?
Fang Yun took out the letter written to Wu Mu and handed it over: "To be honest, general, last time Lord Wu Mu sent a gift note, Fang Yun still didn't reply. This time, he was originally planning to pay a special visit to Wu Mu.
However, Wu Mu Mansion is heavily guarded and cannot be approached. So I wrote a letter of thanks and hoped that the general would help deliver it to Lord Wu Mu."
Li Ji stared at Fang Yun and did not take the letter immediately. As soon as Fang Yun mentioned the gift card, Li Ji knew that this letter of thanks was by no means a simple thank you.
"What's your decision?" Li Ji asked nervously. He really didn't want to see such talent wasted on poetry and articles.
Fang Yun glanced at Li Ji and knew what he meant: "In a while, I will leave Shangjing and officially join the army."
"What? Really? Great!..." Li Ji didn't know whether it was because of drinking, but his face turned as red as a cockscomb.
Fang Yun's decision not only fulfilled Li Ji's love for talents, but also gave him an explanation for Wu Mu. Li Ji couldn't help but feel excited. The more he knew about Fang Yun, the stronger his impulse became.
Want to draw Fang Yun into the army.
"General, my letter..."
"Ah, the letter!... Just leave it to me. I'll go see Wu Mu right away."
Without saying a word, Li Ji pushed away the wine jar, got up and left.
With Li Ji's qualifications, he was not qualified to enter the Wu Mu Mansion originally. But because of Fang Yun's relationship, Li Ji obtained a talisman edict from Wu Mu, so that he could enter the Wu Mu Mansion.
After a while, Fang Yun's letter was sent deep into Wu Mu's mansion.
After Li Ji left, Fang Yun returned to the Sifang Hou Mansion.
In the evening, Li Ji paid a visit in person.
"General, please sit down!"
Fang Yun led Li Ji to his study room.
"General, Master Wu Mu, has news arrived?"
After Li Ji sat down, Fang Yun asked.
"Yes. Master Wu Mu has read your letter. Wu Mu didn't say anything else. He only said that with your current strength, there is no need to go to Tian Snake Mountain again."
Tianshen Mountain is about half a day's journey from the capital. According to the rules of the Zhou Dynasty, scholars must enter Tianshen Mountain before joining the army. After receiving necessary training in Tianshen Mountain, they are then sent to various places in Kyushu.
Fang Yun is now at the level of the Embryo Realm, and even joining the Forbidden Army is a bit humiliating. There is no need for any more formal training.
"What Lord Wu Hou means, the only thing on Tian She Mountain that can be of some help to you is the Geography of the Four Wildernesses. I have brought this book over. You should take a look at it during this time."
Li Ji took out a medium-thick cyan booklet from his arms and handed it over. Fang Yun took it and flipped through a few pages at will. He saw that the cyan booklet introduced Manhuang, Manhuang, and Dihuang.
, barren geographical terrain, including mountains, rivers and ferocious beasts.
"Thank you, sir."
"Haha, the official business is over. Now it's the turn of the private business," Li Ji suddenly laughed and said: "Master Wu Mu appreciates your joining the army very much. However, he did not say which state's reserve army you must join. If you
If you don’t mind, I would like to recommend you to join my lord, His Majesty Feng Ninghou.”
Feng Ninghou Zhou Zhi is thirty-seven years old this year. Among the civilian princes of the Zhou Dynasty, he is the only prince who is alone. He has a mansion in Shangjing City, but there are few servants in this mansion and there are few people. Because this Fengning Hou
Since the death of his wife, he has never returned to the capital.
Marquis Feng Ning was extremely talented and beautiful. When he was young, he was an elegant and elegant scholar. Countless people from the royal family came to the capital and wanted to marry their daughters to him. After his wife passed away, it was rumored that Marquis Manghuang wanted to marry him.
His wife's daughters were all married to him, but he rejected them all.
The news about Marquis Feng Ning came to Fang Yun's mind. Marquis Feng Ning was an anomaly in Shangjing City. Marquis Feng Ning was eccentric and did not like to interact with others. Confucianism pays attention to etiquette. There is a saying,
There are three kinds of unfilial piety, the worst is to have no descendants. But Feng Ninghou is truly without a wife or children.
Fang Yun did not expect that the master behind Li Ji was actually Marquis Feng Ning.
"How about it? As long as you nod and agree, I will write a letter immediately and recommend you to my lord!"
Li Ji's eyes were full of expectation.
Fang Yun's mind echoed that Feng Ninghou was suppressing the western part of the Great Zhou Dynasty. In the imperial court, prisoners who made mistakes and were sent to the Veda Continent had to go through Feng Ninghou's handwriting.
There are clusters of mountains and endless grass. After climbing over the mountains, you will immediately reach the vast sea. Although there are no foreigners, there are many mountain gates of evil sects standing there. These people are lawless and even officers and soldiers dare to kill. Once
The imperial court pursued him and he immediately sneaked into the mountains. If he couldn't escape, he floated to the sea. After the storm passed, he returned again, which was extremely difficult to deal with.
"The Great Zhou Dynasty mobilized its troops frequently. First, it was under the name of Feng Ninghou, and it was trained by those evil sects. Then, taking advantage of the mobilization of the imperial troops, it entered the battlefields of all directions and made great achievements in battle!"
Fang Yun pondered for a moment and immediately understood that Feng Ninghou was the best choice compared to his own situation.
"Then please, General, please write a letter of recommendation for me!"
Fang Yun said with a smile. The border area of Dazhou is complicated. It will be much more convenient to have a letter of recommendation in hand.
"Haha, bring up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone!"
Li Ji laughed loudly, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to write the recommendation letter in the study immediately and decide on Fang Yun's whereabouts.
Although Li Ji was a military general, his handwriting was good and generous.
"The mission is completed, I can leave. After a while, I will write a letter to the general and send someone to send it out overnight. I will stay soon."
"Then Fang Yun gives it to the general."
Fang Yun received the recommendation letter and sent Li Ji out the door.
