This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!

Chapter 592 Volume [-] The Means of the Empress Changsun

Datang, Chang'an.

After all, the news of the Western Regions could not be hidden from these old foxes in Chang'an.

In fact, it can't be hidden, not only the court, but even the nobles of the Tang Dynasty have eyeliners in the Western Regions.

This is the case when the family grows up, especially when it concerns Li Chengqian, each family will not relax.

Regardless of their extremely firm position now, Li Chengqian is the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty after all, no matter what the future holds, there is indeed no better choice than him right now.

At this moment, in the office of the Ministry of Household Affairs, Wen Yanbo looked at the letter in his hand, shook his head and said: "After all, Daming has taken action against the Western Regions."

This is not what he wants to see, but it is not what he can stop.

In the office of the Ministry of Household Affairs, everyone shook their heads and remained silent.

But from their standpoint, this is not a bad thing.

After all, Li Chengqian is the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty. If he returns to the Tang Dynasty to ascend the throne in the future, then the Tang Dynasty will really be a colossus. Of course, the main reason is that they are still young and have unlimited hope in the future.

"You guys are busy for now, I'm going to find the house servant to discuss it." After Wen Yanbo finished speaking, he got up and left.

Naturally, everyone didn't say much, but after Wen Yanbo left, a group of people chatted.

Naturally Wen Yanbo didn't care about all this, he was already in Fang Xuanling's apartment now, frowning but didn't make a sound.

Seeing his expression, Fang Xuanling immediately knew what was going on, and said with a smile: "Okay, isn't this already expected?

After Daming conquered Tubo, if he still wanted to expand, he would only have the Western Regions.

After all, they have plotted the Western Regions for so many years, now is the time to pick peaches. "

"That's what I said, but now that the Ming Dynasty is becoming more and more powerful, it may not be a good thing for my Tang Dynasty! After all, Your Majesty is in the heyday of the Spring and Autumn Period."

Wen Yanbo didn't understand what Fang Xuanling meant, but Fang Xuanling and the others were too far-sighted, so long-term that they ignored the current actual situation.

"You." Fang Xuanling shook his head and smiled, "At this point, no one can change anything, not even His Majesty can resist the temptation.

After all, the benefits that Da Ming can bring to Datang are too great. If His Highness is really separated from Datang completely, I, Datang, will lose the most. "

"What do you want to say?" Hearing what Fang Xuanling said, Wen Yanbo hesitated for a moment, because he also realized the problem.

Fang Xuanling said: "At this point, it's not what the old man wants to say, but what we can only do.

There is a fact that we have to admit, even if Da Ming is not strong enough to compete against Datang, we are actually unable to restrict Da Ming.

Although Da Ming has always been a threat to our Great Tang, relatively speaking, Da Ming has greater interests in our Great Tang.

If we don't use this method and want to use force to complete the unification, it will be a loss for both Tang and Ming. "

After all, Datang still couldn't abandon Daming.

There is no way, as Fang Xuanling said, the benefits that Da Ming can bring to Datang are too great, so big that they can ignore many things.

"But have you ever thought about it?" Wen Yanbo continued, "If the one who returns to the Tang Dynasty to visit Dabao in the future, he will have his own team.

To put it bluntly, that person can replace most of the people in the court with his own team almost instantly! "

Having said that, Wen Yanbo sighed.

This is what worries him the most.

But Fang Xuanling smiled and said: "You, don't say whether His Highness will do this, even if he will, so what? What do these people in my Great Tang Dynasty hall do? You can change it if you say it of.

Besides, why do you think His Highness put the Great Zhao Wangting between the Great Ming and the Great Tang? Isn't it just to provide a place for the courts of the two countries to compete?
Moreover, so what if His Highness insists on going his own way?

After merging the Ming Dynasty, how big is the territory of the Tang Dynasty?Are you still worried that there is no place to be an official?
The big deal is to go to the local area. Isn’t it the ambition of us people to govern a state and a capital? As long as the Tang Dynasty can flourish, what can you and me old people give up these powers for the sake of the Tang Dynasty? "

Whether it should be said or not, Fang Xuanling's consciousness is still very high in this regard.

As long as Datang is good, he can indeed give up a lot of things.

Of course, in his position, in fact, these are all fucks.

So what if Li Chengqian takes over?
What else can he do?

Besides, he has been in this position for too long. If Li Chengqian were to take over, he would have retreated in a hurry, so it was easy to talk.

"It's easy for you to say." Wen Yanbo snorted coldly when he heard the words, "Even if you and I can think so, what about the others? Think so?
After all, there are still too few people like you and me. "

This old man is not ashamed...

Hearing what he said, Fang Xuanling complained in his heart, but he still said: "Did you forget that almost all the nobles in Chang'an have their heirs in Daming, why do you think they have not given up at this point?" Isn't it just in case that my son was called back?
So what if all of us old guys have retreated by then?

There are still people who can top each family.

As for those families who have no heirs in Daming, how much trouble can they create?
Moreover, with such a small family, it is estimated that His Highness will not easily touch them, so ah, you still think too much. "

Wen Yanbo was still a little helpless when he heard that.

"That's what you say, but you can't just look at things this way. No one knows what the future will look like." Wen Yanbo continued, "Just look at the present, isn't the King of Shu very active?
Ever since he took the post of Governor of Chang'an, he has shown himself to be fighting in a big way. Don't tell me you don't know what he's thinking?
Moreover, His Majesty's attitude is also ambiguous now, what if His Majesty's attitude changes?
So, some things still have to be guarded against. "

"This is natural." Fang Xuanling said, "We still have to do what we have to do, but don't be too nervous. Look at you, the dignified Hubu Shangshu, just heard the news, and ran over non-stop. It's a photoshoot."

Hearing what he said, Wen Yanbo was so angry that he was half dead.

But there is no way to say a word of rebuttal.

He actually understands that Fang Xuanling is not in a hurry. After all, Fang Xuanling is so old. No matter how you say it, his Fang family will not go down.

But he can't. The situation of each family is different, and the attitude is naturally different.

After Wen Yanbo had no choice but to leave, Fang Xuanling also shook his head, and then said: "The queen summons me, and I will return as soon as I go."

Just before Wen Yanbo came, Empress Changsun had sent someone to invite Fang Xuanling and his wife to the palace for a banquet, saying that it was for Fang Yiai's marriage.

But at this juncture, Empress Changsun entertained the couple, what else could be going on?
This was also the reason why Fang Xuanling had such an attitude just now.

For Fang Xuanling, Empress Changsun has kindness to him, and the most difficult thing to repay in this world is the debt of favor, there is nothing wrong with saying that.

At the banquet, Empress Changsun and Li Er were both present.

After all, it was a banquet for important ministers from foreign courts, so naturally Empress Changsun would not entertain Fang Xuanling and his wife alone, not because it was unreasonable, but the key was that the current situation did not tolerate any deviation from the eldest grandson.

Besides, after all, it is the family of sons and daughters, so it is reasonable for Li Er, the father, to be present.

"Today is a family banquet, so there is no need to be extra polite." Seeing that Fang Xuanling and his wife were about to salute, Li Er immediately waved his hands.

Empress Changsun also smiled and said: "That's right, that's right, Yiai's child has grown up now, and Gao Yang is not young, even though he had a marriage contract early, it's okay if he doesn't get married all the time.

As parents, no matter what their status is, they still look forward to their children getting married as soon as possible.

By the way, how is Yiai's child these days?
Speaking of which, I haven't seen this kid for many years, and I don't know if he is more talented now than before.

Speaking of this, I would like to thank the two of you for raising a good son. These years, without them accompanying Gao Ming in the northwest, Gao Ming's life would have been difficult.

It's just a pain for the two of you. "

Hearing what Empress Changsun said, Fang Xuanling also heaved a long sigh in his heart. Although there was nothing wrong with what was said, how could he not hear what Empress Changsun said.

Those present, even Mrs. Fang understood, are all good people, so they don't need to speak too clearly.

On the side, Li Er smiled, but didn't say anything.

He knew exactly what the eldest grandson wanted to do, but he didn't mind either.

When Fang Xuanling and his wife heard the words, they got up immediately and said: "Your Majesty, you are serious. It is his good fortune that Yiai's child has such a chance. If he hadn't followed His Highness all these years, he might still be doing mischief in Chang'an.

To be honest, we are the ones who have to thank His Majesty and the Empress. "

After all, Fang Xuanling glanced at Li Er.

It's just that Li Er didn't say anything except for a slight smile.

"We are all a family, so there is no need to be so polite." Empress Changsun smiled, "Let's talk about the marriage of the two children. Now that the two children are grown up, I wonder what the house servant thinks?"

Ok?
Hearing the eldest grandson's words, Fang Xuanling was immediately taken aback.

What do you mean by that?Could it be that because he recently caused dissatisfaction with Empress Changsun against Daming, this is the rhythm of wanting to regret the marriage?

If the marriage was really regretted, then the Fang family would be ashamed.

"Naturally, I listened to what the queen wanted." Fang Xuanling immediately kicked the ball back.

After all, it's Princess Shang, so it's okay to listen to the eldest grandson.

The eldest grandson said with a smile: "Fang Pushe misunderstood, I think that the two children have reached the age of marriage, but after all, Yiai is an official in Daming now, I don't know Fangpushe wants to let Yiai return. Chang'an got married, so Gao Yang was still sent to Daming to get married.

Can't we come up with a charter? "

As soon as she finished speaking, even Li Er glanced at Empress Changsun calmly.

This makes sense.

If the previous sentence was just a warning, then this sentence was letting Fang Xuanling make a choice.

Even Li Er was slightly displeased.

Fang Xuanling pondered for a long time, didn't say anything, seemed to be thinking, but was actually waiting for Li Er, thinking, Your Majesty, if you don't speak again, the old man will not know what to do.

Seeing Fang Xuanling like this, Li Er immediately smiled and said: "There is no rush, after all, the two children are still young, so we can just wait."

He also realized the problem, if Fang Xuanling called Fang Yiai back to get married, it would cut off Fang Yiai's future, but if he sent Gao Yang to Riyue Mountain, then Fang Xuanling's position would immediately become clear, which also meant that It was not what Li Er wanted to see.

"Why are you not in a hurry?" Empress Changsun immediately said, "Gao Yang is about to become a big girl, why not worry?
Besides, Yi Ai's child is now alone in Riyue Mountain, if there is an incident of the eldest son not being born as a descendant, it will be a joke. "

It's also rare for her to be so strong, but she didn't expect to have any results once. She made such a fuss today, but she just wanted to show her attitude.

In fact, she knew very well that at this stage, Fang Xuanling would not be able to support Li Chengqian in an open manner, but what she needed was not Fang Xuanling's support, as long as Fang Xuanling did not target Li Chengqian.

As the old saying goes, a woman is as strong as a mother.

Touching her son's vital interests, the eldest grandson empress is not easy to give.

"Changle has already been sent to Daming, and Gao Yang is also sent?" Li Er said displeased, "Speaking of which, those monkey cubs in Daming don't know that they have marriage contracts. Can all the princesses be sent to Daming?”

He is getting more and more angry, of course, this is also for the eldest grandson to see.

However, what he said was true. Many of those guys from Riyue Mountain had engagements, and Li Chengqian's side almost included at least half of his brother-in-law.

For example, aren't Du He, Cheng Chuliang, and Fang Yiai his brother-in-law?Even Chang Sun Chong is his brother-in-law!
"Your Majesty is reluctant to part with his precious daughter, and even his house servant is willing to part with his son. Why don't you see anyone like Your Majesty?" Empress Changsun joked immediately.

Upon hearing this, Li Er immediately said, "Can a son compare with a daughter?"

"Your Majesty is right." Fang Xuanling also said immediately, "Girls are indeed more pleasant than sons. When the child of Yiai was still in Chang'an, the old minister often worried about him, but now Well, I finally became more sensible. Although I haven't been in Chang'an these years, there is always a letter sent back every now and then.

On the contrary, he is much more sensible than when he was in Chang'an.

It's just that, every time this kid sends a letter back, he can still read the previous content, even the last one, either missing this or that. In the past few years, the old minister has helped him a lot in Chang'an. "

After finishing speaking, Fang Xuanling himself laughed.

Of course, Empress Changsun also laughed.

This is Fang Xuanling's statement, the meaning is obvious, the veteran has done something for Daming these years.

Li Er also laughed when he heard the words, he actually knew what his ministers did for those guys in Riyue Mountain, but from this point alone, he could understand.

All in all, it was an uneventful dinner.

After leaving the palace, Fang said helplessly: "In this way, the marriage of my beloved will really be delayed. I can wait this time, but do I really have to wait?"

Fang Xuanling also sighed when he heard the words, he actually knew that this choice was always to be made, not just him, almost every family was the same.

It's just that everyone can procrastinate now.

Of course, since Empress Changsun has spoken, he will naturally restrain himself, at least for the time being.

As for the back, let's see.

No one can tell what the future holds.
