Elegy of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 34
I would have my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon illuminates the ditch.

This is Fang Chongyong's mood at the moment. He was sitting in the bullock cart on the way back to Chang'an, thinking:
Was Li's brain caught in the door?
Or is it that Fang Youde's compulsion is not high enough, and he can't even count on the pre-arranged marriage contract?

Is there any secret here that I don't know?For example, Li Heng promised to marry Wang Zhongsi's family after his promise?

Fang Chongyong vaguely remembered that Tang Dynasty Emperor Li Yu seemed to be about the same age as him.

He repeatedly weighed in his mind how to solve this matter.

Originally, Fang Chongyong was not very interested in marrying the Wang family. It was Wang Zhongsi who entrusted him with important matters, so he stepped forward to mediate.

Now being tossed like this, on the contrary, he was made a little bit hard to get off.

If you really don't recognize this marriage, then you are not a person inside and outside, and it is difficult for the scumbag and Wang Zhongsi to explain.

And to recognize this marriage, it seems like a hot face to stick a cold ass!
"Has Mr. Lang hit a wall in the Wang family? Is it because the people over there want to regret the marriage?"

Zhang Xun, who was driving, asked doubtfully. He was someone who had been here before, so he knew about things like having a hairy son-in-law come to his door.

"It's not said clearly over there, and it's impossible to say it clearly. It's just that the intention of refusing the marriage is self-evident. I couldn't bear it, so I just returned the birth date, so they don't have to worry about whether they want to be a villain or not."

Fang Chongyong couldn't help sighing.

Zhang Xun has long felt that Fang Chongyong's wisdom is far superior to his peers, even compared to adults.He thought for a while, then nodded slightly encouragingly: "You can breathe a sigh of relief, Mr. Xiao Lang did nothing wrong."

"Yes."

Fang Chongyong reluctantly agreed, but secretly thought: If only it could be that simple.

Zhang Xun thought that Fang Chongyong couldn't bear this tone. In fact, Fang Chongyong, who had lived in two generations, had never seen any big scenes?In the previous life, the mother-in-law's eyes were higher than her head, and she would look at people through the cracks in the door. Isn't it strange?

When Zheng Shuqing came up and accused him of being a deer, didn't he find a way to escape from the sea of ​​suffering in the end?

The reason why Fang Chongyong returned Wang Yunxiu's birth date was because he seemed very impulsive.In fact, he was not angry at being rejected. He was angry at Li's stupidity, and even more frightened by the stormy waves that might be coming!

Mrs. Li is now asking Li Heng to use her relationship to help Wang Zhongsi leave Dongyang Mansion. She only considers the convenience but not the huge risk involved!
If Li Heng is really required to handle this matter, let alone return to Chang'an, Wang Zhongsi may even be dispatched directly to Lingnan!It's even unknown that Li Longji just picked up some trumped-up charges and dealt with it!

Mrs. Li never thought about the terrifying energy that Li Heng and Wang Zhongsi will produce when they join forces!How much fear will make Li Longji.

Li Heng now has the hard card of Huangfu Weiming in his hand. Although this person is not yet a military governor, he has both civil and military skills. Not only has he been to Tubo, but he has also served as Sinongqing!He also served as a general on the left.

It was only a matter of time before he was appointed Jiedushi. He was suppressed now just because his sworn brother Wang Yu was implicated, but sooner or later he would be promoted by Li Longji.

Because the position of Jiedushi requires talents with both civil and military skills.And when it comes to fighting against Tubo, Tang Ting will always lack generals who understand the situation of Tubo.There are countless opportunities for Huangfu Weiming to make a fortune!
Besides Huangfu Weiming, Li Heng's loyal confidant is also Wei Jian.Now Wei Jian is Chang'an Ling. I heard that he has the possibility of becoming a prime minister, and he is also good at managing money. It is only a matter of time before Li Longji makes great use of him.

It can be said that the future is limitless.

With these two people, one civil and one military, one external and one internal, Li Heng has strong supporters in the court and border towns.

Then, under the circumstances that Prince Li Ying must be abolished, the next round of succession for many princes will inevitably begin.Li Heng's strength is already quite terrifying just by looking at it, it's like writing "I will be the new prince" on his forehead!
If there was another Wang Zhongsi among Li Heng's cronies who had repeatedly made military exploits at the border, Fang Chongyong could fully imagine how afraid Li Longji would be!
When Li Longji is slightly ill and unable to manage the court, Li Heng can use Wei Jian to control the center, and use Huangfu Weiming and Wang Zhongsi to control the border towns. Is it difficult to change the world?Another PTSD slogan, for example, makes the courtiers very afraid, such as Concubine Wu Hui ostracizing the emperor to disrupt the government.

Taking advantage of the courtiers and clan's deep fear of Wu Meiniang, he would rather kill the wrong one than let her go.I'm afraid the success rate of the coup will be astonishing!

Not to mention the extremely suspicious Li Longji, even Fang Chongyong himself felt chills on his back just thinking about it.

Now that I have the opportunity to cut myself off from Wang Zhongsi's family, why don't I wait for the Chinese New Year if I don't run away?
When Li Longji starts killing three sons in one day, let's see how Li will cry!At that time, their whole family would be frightened day and night, thinking that they would be implicated by King Zhong.

I'm afraid that Li Heng has already started to operate this matter now.It is a pity that the more he operates, the farther Wang Zhongsi will be from returning to the battlefield, and the more dangerous his own situation will be.

"Fortune is where misfortune rests, and misfortune is where blessings lie. Then Wang Sheng said that this trip is absolutely necessary, and he really hit the mark, and it's all in vain."

Fang Chongyong couldn't help feeling a little emotional, the fortune teller Wang Sheng's calculation of receiving [-] Wen was not too high, but too low, really accurate.

Back in Chang'an, Fang Chongyong wrote a letter to Wang Zhongsi. In the letter, he analyzed the pros and cons of this time in detail, and then told the truth, breaking up all possible crises and telling the other party, and said that today's The situation is very treacherous and dangerous.

Fang Chongyong told Wang Zhongsi that he was dormant in Dongyang Mansion and not being noticed by Li Longji, which may not be a good thing to be thankful for.

As for the engagement, it was not mentioned in the letter.

However, before the letter was sent, a "big event" happened that Fang Chongyong did not expect.

……

On the second day after Fang Chongyong returned to Chang'an, two unexpected guests came to his door, catching him off guard!

Fang Chongyong looked at the slender girl in front of him, wearing a man's white robe, with a heroic look on her eyebrows. She looked to be only eight or nine years old, and her silky hair was simply tied up.Refreshing and sophisticated without powder.

Those piercing eyes stared at him all the time, making Fang Chongyong, who was always eloquent, a little speechless for a while.

Beside the girl was a young man who looked very similar to Wang Zhongsi, but about fourteen or fifteen years old, and wore the same style of robes as that girl, only one size bigger.

"My Wang Yanshu, the eldest son of Wang Zhongsi, has met his brother-in-law. This is his unmarried wife Wang Yunxiu."

Wang Yanshu winked at Wang Yunxiu with a playful smile, signaling her to speak.

"What the hell do you mean?"

Wang Yunxiu asked.

Fang Chongyong was stunned and responded casually: "Huh?"

"Ah what! Marriage is a major matter. If it is the parents' will, it is your father who wants to divorce the marriage. If the marriage is decided by you and me, then you have to ask me if I agree! It's unreasonable to call off the engagement without seeing her!
What do you mean? "

The more Wang Yunxiu talked, the angrier she became, and she wished she could punch Fang Chongyong directly.

"Then...what do you think?"

Fang Chongyong felt that the girl in front of him was a bit fierce and not cute at all, so he asked cautiously.

Seeing that good things were going to be talked about, Wang Yanshu waved his hand to signal Wang Yunxiu to shut up, then smiled and said: "Father always said: Faith is the foundation of a person.

My brother-in-law rushed back to Chang'an from Kuizhou, and then all the way to Zhengxian County, Huazhou.What's on King Zhong's side, what's on my mother's side, doesn't represent our opinion.

Both Zixia and the Twelve Lady (Wang Yunxiu) believe that the brother-in-law is his own and can entrust important matters, which is more reliable than King Zhong. "

And such a thing?
Fang Chongyong looked at Wang Yanshu in horror, and then at Wang Yunxiu.

"What are you looking at? In a few years you will have to marry me, and you will have to look at it even if you don't want to."

Wang Yunxiu retorted angrily. After sitting down, she was full of anger and didn't know who to turn to.

Finding that Fang Chongyong was stunned and silent, Wang Yanshu had no choice but to say softly: "We always felt that although King Zhong (Li Heng) had a close relationship with my father, he was always an outsider with unpredictable thoughts.

So this time we came to Chang'an with our mother on our backs. Firstly, the eldest mother (Wang Zhongsi's mother Kuang's family) was born in a small family. The second lady is entrusted to the husband;

Secondly, I also want to know what my brother-in-law plans to do and whether he needs anything from us.

To be honest, since my father was demoted to Dongyang Mansion, the family has been completely messed up.Mother seemed to be going to the doctor in a hurry.My brother-in-law is very smart, so I asked my brother-in-law to help me out. "

After finishing speaking, he bowed deeply to Fang Chongyong.

The sudden visit of these two people made Fang Chongyong confused about how to deal with it.

"So, this marriage is your own idea?"

Fang Chongyong looked at Wang Yunxiu and asked in doubt.

The girl's face hasn't fully grown yet, but she already has the appearance of a beauty embryo.The figure looks very fit, especially the ratio of the legs is really good, and standing up is actually a little taller than himself.

"Otherwise? I don't want to come, who can force me to come?
I feel that you rushed from Kuizhou to Zhengxian County, which was done by a real man.My future husband should be such an upright man.

Since the parents have already arranged a marriage contract, they should keep their promises, how can they change them overnight?
You wouldn't say you regretted it, would you? "

Wang Yunxiu spoke quickly and quickly, unlike those shy little ladies who were pretentious, and she spoke clearly.

"I'm just afraid that if we are congenial, it will be miserable if we end up as brothers with different surnames."

Fang Chongyong looked at Wang Yunxiu and smiled bitterly.

"Then Alang, why don't you hurry up and serve the wine? What does the mother-in-law look like!"

Wang Yunxiu couldn't help laughing and said, Fang Chongyong was in a trance when he saw his heroic appearance.I have seen many hypocritical women in my previous life, but I have never seen such a strange woman.

Wang Yanshu couldn't help complaining from the side: "My sister just fell in love with your brother-in-law, you are looking for a wife from thousands of miles away, and you are so righteous. When she learned that you were going to divorce, she had a big fight with her mother..."

"Can you shut up that bitch of yours?"

Wang Yunxiu tilted her head in embarrassment, rolled her eyes at Wang Yanshu and scolded.

Fang Dafu brought a jar of red lotus spring with a smile, looked at Wang Yunxiu with deep meaning and said nothing, and then quietly withdrew.

Both Wang Yanshu and Wang Yunxiu looked at Honglianchun in the white porcelain wine glass in a daze. Even if they were not alcoholics, they could feel that the wine in front of them was expensive.

The three of them drank until their faces turned slightly red, and they put down their glasses at the same time, ready to start talking about serious matters.After confirming that the marriage contract is all right, we can start talking about business. The Wang Yanshu brothers and sisters are not as reckless as they appear, they also have principles and bottom lines.

"It's okay to call you Alang now. The most urgent thing now is to get my father back, but we have no way out. If you have any ideas, Alang, you might as well talk about it. Let's find a way to persuade you about the matter on the mother's side."

It was rare for Wang Yunxiu to put down her temper and said seriously.

"It was originally a very easy thing to do, but now it is difficult. The operation of King Zhong's side has probably started, and now even if you want to stop, you can't stop it.

They will only do more harm than good, and the more they help, the more they help. "

Fang Chongyong sighed and said, when he heard that Wang Yunxiu's mother asked Li Heng for help, he knew that things were going to go bad!
"If we contact the people who are loyal to the king now and ask them not to operate this matter, will there be a chance?"

Wang Yanshu thought for a while and asked Fang Chongyong somewhat unconfidently.

"It's the most taboo to ask for help to do things. Doesn't King Zhong lose face? Just being called by your family just like this?"

Fang Chongyong looked at Wang Yanshu and asked, if he can't figure this out, then he really doubts that Wang Yanshu's IQ is not enough to conspire against big things!

"There's nothing difficult to understand here, noble people can't use it cheaply, Alang will continue to talk."

Wang Yunxiu's reaction was a beat faster than her brother's. It can be seen that although she has a bad temper, she has a quick mind, and she speaks quickly, never sloppy.

"The trouble with this matter is that the saint may think that King Zhong is so keen on reviving his father-in-law because his father-in-law is a member of King Zhong's party.

As long as this level of concern can be relieved, it will be easy for the father-in-law to return to Chang'an and even entrust him with important tasks. "

Fang Chongyong roughly said that it is better not to tell them about the danger in detail, in case the two half-old children are scared.

"It doesn't sound difficult..."

Wang Yanshu said in a deep voice.

"I think so."

Wang Yunxiu said with certainty.

"How dare you be so sure..."

Fang Chongyong couldn't help but sighed to Wang Yunxiu.

This little loli started talking nonsense in a serious manner about something that he himself was not sure about!Could it be that just because he is a little taller than himself, he can ignore the chaotic political situation in Chang'an?
"Then I'll give you a pair of shoes. Then you can run around more and be more diligent. I'll leave everything to Alang."

Wang Yunxiu took out a pair of new shoes made by herself from her cuffs and stuffed them into Fang Chongyong's arms without asking if they fit.She pulled Wang Yanshu up and left, looking a little embarrassed.

After Fang Chongyong sent the two of them out of the door, Wang Yunxiu made a face at him and said, "Don't even think about breaking off the engagement. You can't break it off."

Only then did she show the innocence that a girl should have, and Fang Chongyong was filled with excitement.

"I don't want to break off the engagement..."

Fang Chongyong's momentum was completely suppressed by the opponent, and he retorted weakly.

After walking out of Chang'an City, Wang Yanshu asked confused Wang Yunxiu, who was in a happy mood: "Are you really sure? In fact, it's still several years away. There are still three or four years before the marriage, and the sexual intercourse is even more It’s about going forward…”

"It's common for people to cling to you when you're prosperous, but it's not so common for you to help when you're down. Now that the Wang family is in trouble, as a person who is engaged to the Wang family, he can't even escape, so why bother to come to Zheng County to help us? Let alone Starting from Kuizhou, we have traveled thousands of miles.

Isn't such a person worth entrusting?The father's vision is not bad, but the mother, it is really unwise to pin her hopes on the loyal king. "

Wang Yunxiu replied with a serious face.

Wang Yanshu nodded slightly. He saw Wang Zhongsi exaggerating Fang Chongyong in the letter as "feeling and righteous, courageous and resourceful", but Wang Yunxiu had never seen this letter.

"Wang Sheng from Xuanpingfang told your fortune, saying that your future husband-in-law will be a prime minister. I think my brother-in-law is very smart, and it may not be difficult for him to become a prime minister in the future. Then Wang Sheng really lives up to his reputation!"

Wang Yanshu laughed and teased. Wang Yunxiu stamped her feet with a red face, turned around and left, ignoring Wang Yanshu no more.

What the two of them didn't expect was that the time for their mother, Mrs. Li, to pass away as an heir, would come earlier and more urgently than expected.

The drastic changes in Chang'an's political situation exceeded everyone's expectations!
