Upper inside. The fat man comforted Wen Yan a few times. Fang Zheng stopped crying. The lamb was smoking, and the fat man was very entangled.

"Hey, what did you encounter when you went to Jiangnan this time to make you so sad?" The fat man forgot about his curls for a moment and asked with a frown.

Fang Zheng sighed. "Don't mention it, I think it's a tragedy of failure to live until now in this life."

The fat man rolled his eyes: "Are you a tragedy?" You are twenty years old and have become the prince of the country, the official residence is second-class, you hold heavy power, your family is rich and rivals the country, and your wives and concubines are like clouds, "Are you embarrassed to say that you are a tragedy?" Someone else is still alive? ”

Fang Zheng looked up at the beams of the dormitory, was silent for a long time, and said something in a special literary tone: "Without her company, even if you stand at the top of the world, so what?" ”

The fat man rubbed the goosebumps on his arm and said with a wry smile: "Brother Fang, can you be more straightforward?" You know, when we were both studying, you dragged me to skip class, and now I don't understand anything that is too profound

Fang Zheng glanced at the fat man with resentment and said, "To put it simply, I met a woman who looks like a fairy in Jiangnan

The fat man slapped his thigh: "I understand, you are in love, but there is a tiger in your house, and that girl is not allowed to enter the door." Right? ”

Fang Zheng gave him a thumbs up: "You're too smart!" ”

The fat man frowned and said, "You really hooked up with a beautiful woman from Jiangnan?" It's a bit difficult to do, and I know my girl's temperament, so if you want her to nod, I'm afraid it's not easy."

Fang Zheng cried and said, "Now you know how tragic my life is, right?" What if you have money and power? I want to marry one. The girl can't even get in, she can't live this day! ”

The fat man comforted: "You talk to Su'er well, maybe she will agree"

After saying that, the fat man shook his head, saying this so that even he didn't believe it.

"How? As soon as I open my mouth, she will definitely slap me on the wall, like a New Year's painting, I can't even take it off," Fang Zheng began to imagine his future tragic encounter.

"It's against her! Won't you be uplifted? The fat man said angrily.

Fang Zheng sighed and said: "Zhenfu Gang needs strength" I can't beat her. ”

Fatso:

The two brothers looked at each other and sighed at the same time.

There was silence for a long time. The fat man hesitated: "Or, I'll give you a marriage decree?" With a holy decree. Baby"

"I still don't buy it!" Fang Zheng interrupted him, and said nervously: "Don't make an order, you know what kind of character Bi'er has, force her to be anxious, just hold the big belly and go directly to Qinglong Mountain to fall into the grass, plus Yueniang is also pregnant with my child, this is good, the two big-bellied women get together, and Qinglong Mountain has a queen." In the future, two sons will be born, one will be in charge, the other will be in charge, and the brothers will rob the house and dominate the green forest, so what am I? ”

The fat man thought for a while and hesitated: "Old Fang is in charge? ”

Fang Zheng sighed heavily, sadness came from him for a while, and his eyes were red again.

The fat man waved his hand and said: "Forget it, I don't care about this matter, you can worry about it yourself, seriously, Brother Fang, you really want to live a drama"

Fang Zheng heard this. His eyes blinked twice, and tears filled his eyes again.

The fat man hurriedly stopped: "Okay, okay, don't cry, you went down to Jiangnan, how did your feelings become so rich?" Let's talk about something else. ”

Fang Zheng wiped his tears and said, "Don't mind, I came to the palace to comfort you, this hasn't started yet,

The fat man smiled bitterly: "You don't need to comfort me, you are too happy, when I see you, my heart is full of sorrow and comes to naught." When you stand here, I can't even grieve if I want to."

Thank you. You praise me too much" Fang Zheng finished speaking, raised his eyes and looked at the fat man and said: Hey, you are praising me, right? ”

"Yes, of course, you should praise you."

The two looked at each other and smiled. Then the fat man said: "The rebellion of the King of Thailand has been settled? ”

After talking about it, Fang Zheng understood that it was time to report his work seriously.

Fang Zheng nodded and said: "It's flat, 80,000 thieves have been killed, and the foundation of the King of Thailand in Jiangnan has been uprooted by me." ”

The fat man said excitedly: "Have you ever caught the king of Thailand?" ”

Fang Zheng shook his head: "It's a pity, he ran away, at that time, 10,000 people were fighting, and there was no time to take care of the chaotic army, when the two sides fought fiercely, who could take care of whom?" "At that time, I was at the front alone, fighting bravely against the enemy. One person fought more than 800 people, but he still couldn't catch the king of Thailand, fat man, I tried my best, because I killed the enemy too bravely, so I was honorably wounded, and my left shoulder still hurts, hey, fat man, do you want to express it?

The fat man was moved: "Fang Aiqing has suffered, I will give you a promotion when I turn back, and the position of the secretary of the ministry has been vacant for you."

"Wait! Stop! I don't want to be promoted, you better commend me in silver,"

"If you want officials, you don't have money!"

"Fatty, you have fallen" You have degenerated into hob meat, I am very sad"

"Say so. All 80,000 rebels have been wiped out? ”

"Yes, and those families that are not very stable, I will also help you get it, in a few days, the sons and daughters of the heads of the families in Jiangnan will enter Beijing one after another, you will give each family a title at that time, and find them some innocuous official positions in the six departments, so that at least five to ten years of peace in Jiangnan, I have talked to the heads of the family, the children of each family enter Beijing as officials, and they are not allowed to leave Beijing without authorization during the period, hehe, even if the family wants to rebel, their sons and nephews are all in the capital, can they still fight back?"

"Brother Fang's trick is good!" The fat man's eyes lit up and he praised it.

Fang Zheng shook his head and said: "This is just an expedient method, it can only treat the symptoms, if you want to cure the root cause, you have to develop internal affairs, military, and make great efforts to make our dynasty rich and strong, so that the treasury is abundant, the people are determined, the family wants to rebel, and no one wants to follow them to rebel, to that." At that time, you can consider slowly weakening the strength of the family and cutting off the wings of the family, for now, the court's attitude towards the family can only be based on appeasement. ”

The fat man nodded and said: "Yes, I also know that there is a great responsibility, if you want the country to be rich and the people strong, you need to change the status quo, so." The only way to change the law is to completely change the land, taxes, government affairs, and military affairs of our dynasty, remove all the unreasonable laws and unfair policies in the past, and seek more blessings for the people, so that the country and the people can be prosperous. ”

Fang Zheng said in a deep voice: "It is necessary to change the law, but it is not an overnight thing, it needs to be carefully considered, since ancient times, the change of the law has touched the interests of the local sovereigns, especially the matters related to land, money, and power, the reaction is particularly fierce, and we must think twice before acting." ”

The fat man looked gloomy. Then he shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't talk about this for the time being, the king of Thailand has not been removed, and the society is still unstable, where do you think he will flee to?" ”

"How do I know? The world is as big as you can get, this guy."

The fat man smiled, raised his head, looked through the palace gate of the main hall, looked to the north, and said leisurely: "I'm afraid I can't tolerate him in the territory."

Fang Zheng's expression froze: "You mean that he will flee abroad?" ”

The fat man nodded and said: "The Jiangnan family has been co-opted by you, his foundation has been lost, except for escaping from the country, I really can't think of where he should go."

Fang Zheng's eyes widened, his eyes rolled a few times, then he looked at the fat man, was silent for a while, and suddenly said in unison with the fat man: "Turkic!" ”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Immediately, Fang Zheng patted his thigh and said, "How can this Turk use himself as a garbage recycling station?" Chai Mengshan colluded with the former prince, and after the rebellion failed, he led more than 20,000 remnants to flee to the Turks, and now the king of Thailand is also running to the Turks, should we summon the Turkic envoys and ask them for help? ”

The fat man smiled: "Do you think the Turks will reason with you?" ”

With a sigh, the fat man's face was a little worried: "Turkic," has always been a great disaster for our dynasty for a hundred years, the two khans chase the grassland, once the grassland is unified, there will be troops pointing at our Chinese dynasty, and when the situation is in my court, it will be a war in the sky, the people will be slaughtered, and the lives will be destroyed."

Fang Zheng also sighed and said: "If the Turkic troubles are not eliminated, your idea of changing the law to become strong can only be shelved indefinitely, the nomads in the north are natural destroyers, they ride war horses, raise scimitars, and the blades of the soldiers are everywhere, and there is not a single grass, no matter how rich and powerful the country is, it will still not be able to withstand their sky-high fire,"

The fat man sighed gloomily, and was silent for a long time, the fat man suddenly raised his head, stared at Fang Zheng with warm eyes, and said coldly: "Brother Fang, or" You lead the troops to pacify the Turks! ”

Fang Zheng was so frightened that he took a big step back, and said in a trembling voice: "You" What are you kidding? It's not so harmful. I haven't lived long enough, do you want your sister to be widowed? ”

The fat man immediately smiled bitterly and said, "That's what I said" In recent years, the treasury of our dynasty has been empty, coupled with the rebellion of Pan Wenyuan, the rebellion of the prince, the rebellion of the king of Thailand, and the three battles to quell the chaos, so that our DPRK troops are empty and the treasury is exhausted, how can we have the ability to fight with the Turks? ”

Fang Zheng put his mind at ease and said seriously: "Fat man, don't scare me so much in the future, you know." I'm always more of a peacemaker."

The fat man glanced at him and said, "What advocates peace? If you are timid, you will be timid! ”

Fang Zheng smiled. Changing the subject, he said, "Hey, have you lost your mind a little lately?" Don't talk about the decree given to me, you also decreed that you will bury it with the queen's ceremony, and at this time, more than 100 ministers outside the gate of the West Palace are kneeling and admonishing

The fat man snorted, "Those old stubborns! I can't wait to kick them home one by one to retire! What does it matter to them that I bury them? One by one, it's like digging his ancestral grave, what a big deal, as for it? ”

Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders and said: "The truth is so helpless, you have ascended the throne online, the foundation of the DPRK and China is unstable, and many things have to be compromised with these old ministers, unless you are willing to be a tyrant who prospers with you and perishes with you, otherwise, you should try not to fall out with them, besides, you do have affection and righteousness for you, but you bury her with the queen's ceremony, but where do you marry your wife?" Empress Chen has been following you silently for so many years, and you have set up one more queen with one word, how sad she is."

The fat man thought for a while, and finally sighed: "That's it, I'll talk about this later, because of the death of the curl a few days ago, I did go a little too far, I really don't know why I made so many foolish wills at that time."

Fang Zheng finally put his mind at ease, the fat man is still the same fat man, even if he occasionally goes out of line, he will eventually get back on track.

Looking up at the sky, the fat man smiled and said, "It's noon, you can dine with me in the palace, how long have we not drunk together?" Recently, Fanbang in the Western Regions has given me a few jars of excellent wine, let's try it. ”

Fang Zheng shook his head. raised his eyes and looked at the fat man's face, pursed his lips and said, "Fat man, there is one more thing I want to talk to you about..."

"Tell me, do you and I still need to hide it?" The fat man smiled heartily, Fang Zheng's arrival made him feel much better.

Fang Zheng tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "What" The trip to Jiangnan is also over, didn't you promise that when this matter is over, you promised me to resign? ”

The fat man was stunned: "You want to resign?" ”

Fang Zheng nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, Weichen has made so many contributions to the country, he has been born and died several times, and now that he has become famous, it is time for Weichen to return to his hometown, didn't you promise me about this earlier?"

Before Fang Zheng finished speaking, the fat man hurriedly shook his head and said, "Nonsense! When did I promise your resignation? ”

Fang Zheng said: "Hey, fat man, you can't talk and don't count, you obviously promised me,"

The fat man's head shook like a rattle: "I haven't promised, there's no such thing at all, you still be honest as your official, who is the old man to sue when you are young?" Let's talk about it in twenty or thirty years, and in two days I will promote you to the secretary of the ministry, and you will carry the ministry."

Fang Zheng was anxious: "Hey, no, fat man, you lack virtue, right?" Co-author, you promised me to resign just to trick me into going to Jiangnan? Depend on! I've been fooled by you! ”

"What's not fooling? I don't understand "Someone, someone!" ”

Two Praetorian soldiers entered the temple at the door.

The fat man's gaze dodged. Raised his hand and pointed at Fang Zheng, and said with a weak heart: "Lord Fang misses his wife at home, send him back, hurry up!" Remember not to let him into the palace."

"Yes!" One of the forbidden soldiers, Fang Zheng was set up and walked outside the palace.

Fang Zheng struggled hard: "Emperor" Emperor! Weichen is old, his physical strength is not sustainable, he really can't be an official anymore, "Emperor, Emperor" depends! Fatty, dead fat! You remember it for me. It's not over! ”

The Praetorian soldiers still carried him out.

Fang Zheng kept struggling and said, "Let me down!" I'll go myself! ”

The soldier said with a bitter face: "Lord Fang, don't be embarrassed for the little ones, come out of the palace with us,"

Fang Zheng said angrily: "What's so difficult for you, don't I have something to do yet?" ”

"What else is going on with you?"

Fang Zheng said angrily: "If you don't agree to resign, what" Didn't you just say that there was wine from the Western Regions to pay tribute? You go and tell the emperor, get me two altars, and I'll go home and send my wife!" ”

Soldier: "

I'm sorry.,Today's yard is a little less.,It's very busy today.,It didn't start to code words until more than six o'clock in the evening.,It's almost zero o'clock now.,Think about it or send it first"

As for the number of words owed, well, you still have to forget, anyway, I definitely can't pay it yet, don't live too clearly in this life"
