Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1980



Chapter 1980
"Blessing? Hehe, it's more than that. Fang Erlang didn't like it in the first place. It was Xiao Yu who shyly approached Fang Xiang and forced him to go. Fang Xiang is a gentleman. He couldn't save face, so he had to reluctantly accept it..."

At the gate of Duke Song's mansion, all the descendants of the Xiao family were waiting here, staring at the groom.

The people on both sides whispered and discussed differently, and these words inevitably reached the ears of these proud and arrogant children...

Those who are deep in the city are indifferent. This matter is because the Xiao family is rushing to marry the Fang family. Gossip will inevitably spread, but as long as the marriage is achieved and the interests of the family are protected, those rumors that will dissipate in a blink of an eye are naturally left to him. .

But there are some people who are arrogant and arrogant, but they inevitably have ideas...

Among the children of the aristocratic family, Fang Jun can be regarded as a different kind.

The descendants of the aristocratic family are all from the Zanying family, and there are naturally some dudes among them, but most of them are gentle and elegant, knowledgeable and courteous.They are graceful and luxurious in white clothes, with a rich family background and cultural heritage. They are born with golden clothes and jade belts, and they are born to be superior.

What is a "family"?
In short, it is a word "ritual".

In ancient times, "ritual" was the foundation of society and the maintenance of order. "Rites" need to be learned through classics, so those who do not understand "rituals" are the heads of Guizhou and untouchables;

"Prosper in poetry, stand in ritual, and succeed in music", the reason why the upper and lower levels are orderly, and the reason why high and low are distinguished.

"Rite" is a symbol of positive society, gentle and moist as jade, upright and peaceful, respecting the old and loving the young... All acts of praise are within the scope of "ritual", which is the most beautiful virtue in the world.

However, what is Fang Jun?
This man is a mallet!
Gentle as jade, Zhongzheng and peace, respecting the old and loving the young... Which of these beautiful virtues has anything to do with him?

But it happens that there is something different among the children of such aristocratic families. It seems that they have completely abandoned the principle of "ritual" with a stick, but they have risen steadily. Whether they are meritorious nobles or powerful families, almost no one in the second generation can match them. !

The emperor favored and favored him even more, and he was very trustworthy.

As for Fang Jun's achievements?No one paid attention to it.

From their point of view, those workshops and business names dedicated to the emperor are simply sycophants among sycophants!A gentleman is a metaphor for righteousness, and a villain is a metaphor for profit. "A gentleman regards righteousness as a quality, and he acts with courtesy."
Leading the navy across the seven seas and sweeping away the barbarians...is that considered a meritorious service?
If you really destroy a country and seize a city, it is considered to expand the territory, but it is only relying on the large number of boats and people, and relying on the majesty of the Tang Dynasty, which country will be destroyed, and which city will be included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty?Oh, don't talk about Da Nang, Namba, etc., not to mention barbarians, they are all leased...

What kind of feat is this?
If I change it, I can do it too!
It's just such a stick, and now the head of the family and the clan elders have to wash away the only Nanliang blood in the family and send it to that servant's bed for nothing...

This is so unbearable!
……

Xiao Rui stood at the door, dressed in brocade robes, although he was in the middle of his age, he was still handsome and handsome.

He is the eldest son of Xiao Yu, and the son-in-law of Princess Xiangcheng, the eldest daughter of His Majesty Li Er, and he is a high-ranking official of the third rank, who belongs to the Xiao family. It's too shabby...I can't let my father stand in front of the door to greet him personally, can I?
It doesn't make sense...

Xiao Rui's temperament is quite calm, and he had some complaints about Fang Jun before, but since his father Xiao Yu decided to marry him, he changed his previous perception and strongly agreed with this matter.

The Xiao family has a rich history and a strong family background, and is a well-known gentry in the south of the Yangtze River. Even in the court, his father Xiao Yu is also a smart and beautiful Qingliu, with a high reputation.However, the embarrassing thing is that since Xiao Yu, although the Xiao family has produced a large number of talents, there are very few people who directly hold real power.

If Fang Jun, who has a bright future, can be brought to Xiao's side, the benefits will not be too great.

Besides, Xiao Rui is well aware of the current policies of the imperial court. Although no one has ever called out to suppress the family members, every policy introduced has actually weakened the foundation of the family members.

And Fang Jun is the vanguard of the emperor's policy of weakening the aristocratic families...

This is the knife in the emperor's hand. Whoever dares not flatter anyone with the emperor standing behind him?

The aristocratic family has the pride of the aristocratic family, but the aristocratic family cannot put their pride on the opposite side of the emperor's will, this is Xiao's choice.

In fact, the Xiao family abandoned the previous camp and stood behind the emperor by marrying Fang Jun, and the benefits he gained far exceeded the previous decades of management.

The Xiao family has already made a lot of money every time a huge fleet carries countless cargoes out to sea and is fully escorted by the navy. After arriving in Da Nang, Namba Tsu and other places, the local military attache's full planning.

Not to mention that several elders of the Xiao clan are about to enter Chang'an Academy to become teachers...

However, Xiao Rui immediately noticed the emotions of the Xiao family's children beside him.

He frowned, glanced coldly at a few people, stared at a man with a strong body, and said in a deep voice: "Today is the day of great joy for the Xiao family, and from now on, Fang Jun will be the son-in-law of my Xiao family. No matter what troubles you and others have had with you in the past, you must let go of them all."

He was afraid that these ignorant guys would do something out of the ordinary. How could Fang Jun be easy to provoke?Fortunately, these Xiao family's children have all been in Chang'an for many years, knowing that Fang Jun is a stickler who can't tolerate sand in his eyes, even if he is dissatisfied in his heart, he must restrain himself and dare not go too far.

But this fit man made him a little worried...

A group of Xiao's disciples hurriedly said: "Brother, don't worry, we will save it."

Xiao Rui is old, and because of his high position, he has developed a sense of official prestige, and he is the heir of the head of the family. These brothers respect him very much.

Only the fit man raised his eyebrows disapprovingly, and said with a playful smile: "Uncle, what is the point of this? My brother has been staying in the Western Regions all year round, and he will never have the opportunity to return to Chang'an when he is idle. It is still unknown whether Fang Jun is a three-headed and six-armed man. Why did he make such a fuss?" ?”

Xiao Rui felt that his tone was wrong when he heard this, and he warned in words: "Don't be foolish! That Fang Jun has a violent temper, he can't suffer in the slightest, and he has His Majesty's protection, conflicting with him will definitely make you unable to bear it. It is your father. I'm afraid I can't protect you!"

The fit and handsome man became more aggressive, and sneered, "Uncle, don't let other people's aspirations grow, and destroy your own prestige! I, Xiao Siye, went to the Western Regions with my aunt and grandma since I was a child. Governor Shi, at that time, Fang Jun was still breastfeeding, right? Heh heh, he is just a dandy who relies on his family background and holy family, so what is there to be afraid of?"

Xiao Rui had a huge headache...

This Xiao Siye is the grandson of the sixth uncle Xiao Xun, his nephew, but he is two years older than him, and has inherited the handsome appearance of the Xiao family.When he was a child, he lived in Luoyang with his aunt Empress Xiao. Because of his intelligence and beauty, he was favored by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty.

In the fourth year of Zhenguan, Li Jing destroyed the Turks and welcomed Empress Xiao back.

Because of his father Xiao Yu's recommendation, Xiao Siye was able to stay in the Western Regions and lead the Turks who surrendered. In the ninth year of Zhenguan, he led the Turks to enclose him.

It is probably because of the vastness of the grassland and the desert that formed Xiao Siye's rebellious personality, which is completely different from the Xiao family's family style of poetry and etiquette, gentle and jade-like.When he returned to Beijing this time, his father planned to make him return to Chang'an to take up a post to replace Li Xiaoyou's deprived Hongluqing official position.

Because of his outstanding achievements in managing the Turkic people in the Western Regions and his rich experience in communicating with foreigners, the emperor has already agreed and will issue a decree soon...

Just as he was about to warn with words again, he suddenly heard a sound of gongs and drums shaking the sky, he turned his head and saw that the Fang family's wedding party had already arrived in front of the square gate.

Xiao Rui glared at Xiao Siye, and warned: "Don't make trouble, or the family law will not forgive you!"

After finishing speaking, he tidied up his clothes, stood on the steps in front of the door, and waited for the wedding procession.

Xiao Siye didn't dare to tell you Xiao Rui's words face to face, but curled his lips secretly, glanced at the brothers and uncles around him, and sneered.

In the blink of an eye, the welcoming team had already arrived in front of Duke Song's mansion.

Fang Jun rode a bay red horse, dressed in auspicious clothes, got up close and dismounted, and saluted Xiao Rui and others on the steps: "You are polite!"

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "You are polite! I have been waiting for Erlang for a long time, come here, come in quickly."

Although the Xiao family is the top family in the Tang Dynasty, but after all, they are taking concubines, and many tedious agendas were streamlined, and Fang Jun walked up the steps with a smile on his face...

Suddenly a figure flashed in front of me, and one person stood up from the back row, and said with a smile: "My daughter of the Xiao family, how can she marry so easily? You have to pass my test first."

Fang Jun stopped when he heard that, and looked up, the smile on his face faded.

The Xiao family, what does this mean?
The moment Xiao Rui stood up from Xiao Siye, his heart skipped a beat, wishing he could strangle this bastard to death!When he saw Fang Jun's expression again, he suddenly had one head and two big heads, and he broke out in cold sweat.
