Chapter 300 Another good thing

On March 20, more than a month had passed since Prince Yi's rebellion, and a group of prisoners would be beheaded every day at the entrance of the vegetable market in Chang'an City, sometimes thousands of people, and sometimes hundreds of people. When the will to send Fang Xie to Yongzhou in the southwest came down, Fang Xie roughly estimated that in the past month or so, the emperor had cut off at least 30,000 heads.

This time he went to Yongzhou, Fang Jie's identity was Qincha, so there were not a few people in his entourage, in addition to the people around him, Luo Weiran also transferred a flying fish robe to accompany fifty Ouchi guards, and Mu Xiaoxiao led these people as a thousand households. In addition to this, he was accompanied by several officials from the Ministry of Rites.

Fang Xie filmed the big dog and the unicorn and left, and went to Qingle Mountain to find the ten elites of the camp who protected Wu Yinyu. These ten people are Fang Jie's secret strength, and they can't be easily exposed. So Fang Xie arranged for the big dog and the unicorn to contact them, and after finding it, they rushed directly to Yongzhou from Qingle Mountain. When they got there, they didn't want to join Fang Jie's team, but waited secretly for Fang Xie to contact them.

Since he had the experience of being locked up in the secret prison of the Ouchi Guards for half a year, Fang Xie has become more and more cautious in doing things. Although the black boy Yan is crazy, the scholar Chen Xiaoru, and the strong man Nie Xiaoju have been with him for a while, they don't fully trust these three people. Relatively speaking, Fang Xie would rather trust the ten outside the palace who were still strangers.

You've already prepared for it, so you won't be flustered when you get going. Fang Xie planned to leave Beijing early the next morning, and after receiving the order, he decided to go and say goodbye to the people he knew well. He always had a hunch, and vaguely felt that he might not come back for a long time after leaving Chang'an this time. It was precisely because of this bad premonition that he had to bring everyone around him.

Of course, this may just be that he is cautious enough to gain and lose.

Before he could go out, a servant in a green coat and a small hat arrived outside the shop first. Asked for an explanation, and handed over an invitation. Fang Xie looked at it and saw that there was a large list of names on the invitation. They are all court officials, including the new Ministry of Rites Yang Shouquan, and the Ministry of War, Zong Lianghu. There are also many noble children, and even a few princes of the county.

It stands to reason that for a person with such an identity, the invitation should be sent separately. But now that so many people with good status are getting together, there is obviously something profound. Fang Xie thought for a moment and then came to his senses, and couldn't help but smile in his heart. These bigwigs are going to see him off and treat him at Mercury Tower. The reason why so many people only send an invitation is still inseparable from Prince Yi's case.

Now is the time when the situation is sensitive, and if these big men send invitations to Fang one after another, it will obviously attract the attention of many people. The imperial historians in the Imperial History Observatory held back their efforts to engage in a few more important big figures, and if they knew about it, they would inevitably participate in a few books.

These people obviously discussed it in private, and this is why they made the decision to get together and send them off. The next invitation from so many big people, the place to eat is not the most luxurious place in Chang'an City, and the deliberately low-key performance is just not to let people seize anything.

Although Prince Yi's rebellion case is almost over, its impact is getting wider and wider. The officials have gone from being secretly hostile to each other, but now they are biting each other on the surface. Everyone hopes to take this opportunity to send their opponents to the prison of the Criminal Department, as long as they have a relationship with Prince Yi and do not die, they will have to shed their skin.

If it weren't for the fact that Emperor Long Yan was furious later, lost his temper in the court and scolded a few officials who bit each other, I am afraid that this situation will become more and more intense.

At this sensitive time, they are sending Fang Xie off, and naturally they can't be too public.

Of course, many of these people are the backbone of the current imperial court, and if someone targets them, they may not be afraid. For example, Yang Shouquan, the newly promoted waiter of the Ministry of Rites, still has some thin blood of the Great Sui royal family in this person, and he is still the cousin of the current emperor in terms of seniority. Zong Lianghu, the squire of the Ministry of War, this person's position in the court is becoming more and more important, after all, the next big moves of the court will be centered on the Ministry of War.

Huai Qiugong is too old, and it is said that Prince Yi contracted the disease after the rebellion and never went out. And Mou Liangbi's life and death are unknown now, and there is no news at all. So these two people are very likely to go further in a very short period of time.

For the invitation of these big shots, Fang Xie naturally couldn't refuse.

He said a few words to everyone, changed his clothes and walked out of the shop. Follow the servant in the green coat and hat, all the way to the Mercury Tower, which is not far from East 23rd Street.

The list on the invitation was shocking enough, but after Fang explained it to Mercury Tower, he found that the list was only a part of it.

Today's big man in the Mercury Tower, there is even Luo Weiran, the commander of the Inner Guard, Zhuo Buyi, who is second only to Luo Wei in the Inner Guard, and even the old Shangshu Huai Qiugong of the Ministry of Rites who is sick is here. And several of them are not very old, which are also eye-catching.

The young man with a white face and a medium stature is Yang Yanhei, the prince of Guojun, the one with a thin and tall eagle-nosed harrier is Yang Yanlei, the prince of Pingjun, and the handsome son standing behind the two of them is Yang Yanhui, the eldest son of Yang Kai, the king of Xujun. Because the news of the defeat in the northwest has not been announced, His Majesty does not have any will to deal with it. But even so, Fang Xie still saw the uneasiness and apprehension on the face of Yang Yanhui, the prince of Xujun, presumably he already knew the news.

There are many celebrities, which makes Fang Xie feel a little unsure.

……

……

After the greetings, everyone took their seats. Because there were more people, and they were all famous and bigwigs, the flattered owner of the Mercury House was very clever to hang up a sign outside that was closed, and then asked the man to rearrange the hall, and then he personally went to the back kitchen to keep an eye on it, lest the dishes appear the slightest flaw.

There were indeed a lot of people who came, and there were four tables.

As the person with the highest rank and the greatest prestige, Huai Qiugong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was supported by everyone to sit at the head of the table in the center, and since Fang Xie was a guest who was invited to the banquet today, he sat next to Huai Qiugong. On the other side of Huai Qiugong was Luo Weiran, the commander of the Ouchi Guard, and the others were Yang Shouquan, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Zong Lianghu, the waiter of the Ministry of War, and His Royal Highness, the prince of several county kings.

The other officials sat down at other tables, talking and laughing, and the scene was very lively and harmonious.

Fang Xie saluted everyone, and the corners of his mouth were a little stiff when he smiled.

"Solution"

Huai Qiugong, who was obviously not very good, smiled at him and said, "Look at today's meeting, even the old man is a little jealous of you." With so many people seeing you off, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are now the hottest young talent in Chang'an City. ”

Fang Xie hurriedly humbled a few words, and said in his heart that you people refused to disclose any news beforehand, and I was not taken aback when I arrived here.

"Young and ambitious, proud of the spring breeze."

Huai Qiugong said with a smile: "Let the old man vaguely remember when he was young, the first time he traveled as a messenger, it seems that there is no such scene as today." ”

Luo Weiran said: "Huai Lao, if you say this again, you will be scared to pee your pants." ”

Huai Qiugong laughed, although his complexion was not good, he seemed to be in a good mood. He patted Fang Xie on the shoulder and said gently: "What are you afraid of, what the old man said is not a lie, besides, I need to pat his little guy's ass?" If you have an identity and status, you can't be proud of being a person with your tail between your legs all day long, so what's the use of status? ”

"Young people are proud, and they can't be too depressed."

Fang Xie was just laughing, not understanding what these people meant today. However, Luo Weiran and Zhuo Buyi are all there, and obviously these people will not have any malicious intentions. Coupled with the fact that Huai Qiugong's high status was constantly showing favor, Fang Xie suddenly found that he really had such a status in Chang'an City.

It's just that I haven't been aware of it, and I don't think I've really succeeded in doing anything.

"Lord Xiaofang is young and promising, and he should be a model for my generation. Traveling on behalf of the Son of Heaven at such an age, he is still the first since the founding of the Great Sui. ”

Yang Yansi, the prince of Guojun, was a gentle and elegant person, and he spoke softly: "If I'm not mistaken, Lord Xiao Fang is not yet seventeen years old this year, right?" ”

"Hui Shizi, that's right."

Fang Xie replied humbly.

Yang Yanlei, the prince of Pingjun, said with a smile: "Ordinary sixteen or seventeen-year-old men have just reached adulthood, and they act and talk a lot and are childish, but Lord Xiaofang has been serving the country for many years, and he has made great contributions to quelling the rebellion a while ago. ”

The others chimed in, all of them compliments that made people happy and uneasy. Fang Xie accompanied him for a while, and got up and left the table under the pretext of going to the toilet. When he left, he glanced at Zhuo Buyi, Zhuo Buyi understood, and walked out of the hall with him.

"What the hell is going on?"

Fang Xie took Zhuo Buyi's hand and asked, "The scene is so big that people are uncomfortable." ”

Zhuo Buyi smiled and said: "As far as you don't know, a few days ago, when Your Majesty and many adults were discussing in the Dongnuan Pavilion, they mentioned to several scholars that they intended to let you be the prince's attendant after you came back from the southwest. University scholar Niu Huilun said that you are talented and have good character, and took the lead in agreeing. Many people know about this, why don't you know? ”

Fang Xie suddenly realized that Mu San was sent by the emperor to Dongjiang to deliver the decree, and the news in the palace was broken. He didn't even know about it...... The prince's attendant doesn't seem to be a big official, right? In Fang Jie's impression, aren't the attendants and the like all children of the same age as the prince?

Seeing Fang Jie's puzzled eyes, Zhuo Buyi glanced at him and said: "When Emperor Zhenzong was in power, after Huai Lao won the champion, he was first named the prince and walked in the East Palace. Afterward...... is the prince and the young master, and then the prince and the prince! Why is nostalgia so high? Because he is the emperor of the first emperor! ”

Zhuo Buyi sighed: "I didn't even know that I had become a hot celebrity, and your news was too closed." ”

"Attendant...... Isn't it a person who chooses children of the same age as the prince from among the children of the prince's ministers and plays and reads with the prince? ”

Fang Xie asked in surprise.

"Why do you think that?"

Zhuo Buyi was surprised: "Who told you this?" ”

Fang Xie wanted to say that he knew about it from watching TV series in his previous life, but he naturally couldn't say it, he just shook his head: "I'm just a border soldier, where do I know so many things." In the end, after the imperial capital, I had some contact, but I was just ignorant. ”

"The Prince's Attendant ......"

Zhuo Buyi sighed: "This is an amazing identity, although the official position of the attendant is not high, but the identity is transcendent. When the emperor was young, he would select young and knowledgeable people in the Shuhua Pavilion of Wenyuan Pavilion to serve the prince, which was actually to supervise the prince's study. After the prince's coming-of-age ceremony, the status of the acolyte will jump up. There are generally three people who teach the prince's studies, one is a teacher, one is a martial artist, and the other is responsible for the prince's safety. These three people are all attendants, and when the prince becomes an adult, he will be promoted to the prince young master, the prince young master, and the prince young guard. ”

"Sounds ...... It's awesome! ”

Fang Xie sighed.

"Nonsense!"

Zhuo Buyi said: "Although the prince's reading grade is not high, the prince's young master, the prince's young master, and the prince's young protection are all second-grade masters!" ”

"But I'm not from Wenyuan Pavilion or Shuhua Pavilion."

Fang Xie asked a little puzzled.

"Just wait until you come back from the southwest."

Zhuo Buyi said: "Several scholars are fighting for you, whether it is Shuhua Pavilion or Wenyuan Pavilion, they all want you." ”

"No wonder!"

Fang Xie suddenly woke up to Huai Qiugong's words before: "If you are young and proud, you still have to be more public." If you have an identity and status, you still have to be a man with your tail between your legs, so what do you want to do with your status? ”

"Your Majesty is deliberately letting out a tone to give you more chips."

Zhuo Buyi smiled: "Luo Yao is afraid and doesn't dare to underestimate you...... I don't understand why Your Majesty changed his mind, at first I thought that I sent you because of your low status and low qualifications, and Luo Yao's vigilance against you would also be low...... But that's a good thing for you, isn't it? ”
