Chapter 1026: Lobbying
Guo Ye quietly played a warm card, and as soon as Fang Xuanling heard the name of his son Fang Yiai, his frosty expression suddenly became infinitely tender.
For a while, as if he had put the blood above the morning behind, the corners of his mouth smiled and nodded: "It was Guo Jungong who blamed my Erlang." Bereaved love is now in the county magistrate of Liangcai County, and every other month, a letter from his family is sent back, and his good second brother Guo Ye is repeatedly mentioned in the letter. In the letter, this kid said that he wanted to make some political achievements, said that he wanted to fight for me, a father, to earn back face, and even said that he wanted his good second brother Guo Jungong to stop underestimating him. Ha, it's not bad, this kid has done a good job as the magistrate of Liangcai County, and he also has a good reputation in the local area. A few days ago, a major case was cracked, which was recorded in the merit appraisal of officials in the ministry. The prodigal son does not change his money, and my Erlang has finally grown up. ”
When Guo Ye heard this, he couldn't help but be very relieved from the bottom of his heart, he didn't expect this kid to work so hard, yes, but it was much better than the kid who had no news so far.
Immediately, he showed a sincere smile on his face and praised: "Good boy, for the official and the land, for the benefit of the party." Lord Fang is blessed, maybe in the future, the bereaved love can still live in the temple, your father and son are on top of the court to participate in political affairs and serve His Majesty together. At that time, this will be a beautiful talk. ”
"Oh? Hahaha...... My Erlang can wake up, and there is also the credit of Guo Jungong. If he hadn't befriended you at the beginning, I'm afraid he would still have suffered a stroke in Chang'an City. Hua Xueyue walks dogs and fights cocks, and the children are nothing more than the same. As for the dream of father and son in the same dynasty, hahaha......"
After hearing this, Fang Xuanling couldn't help laughing, waved his hand again and again, and said humbly: "Don't dare to think about it, as long as this child will have no worries about food and clothing in the future, and he will be rich and prosperous in the future, I will be relieved to be a father." Where do you dare to hope that the father and son will serve the king in the same dynasty? Guo Jungong was really joking. ”
Fang Xuanling said so, but the true look on his face still betrayed him, Guo Ye could see that Fang Xuanling still longed for it.
Also, raising a child to a hundred, long-term sorrow ninety-nine. Whose parents don't want their children to become Chan, and whose parents don't want their children to rise to the top in the future, have a bright future, and shine on the lintel?
Especially the traditional Confucian literati like Fang Xuanling, not only that, but also more intensely.
Immediately, he laughed lightly: "Lord Fang is too humble, your eldest son is filial piety and kindness, and the second son is smart and clever, and he will be a promising person in the future, hehe, Lord Fang can rest assured." ”
These words are really good, Fang Xuanling also loves to listen to them, and he can't help but have a lingering smile on his face that can't be concealed, and he enjoys it extraordinarily.
But in a trance, Fang Xuanling remembered the changes in the court this morning, thought that the general trend of the Tiance Mansion had gone, and thought that after His Majesty Luan drove back to Beijing, maybe his Fang Xuanling's good days would come to an end.
Even if he didn't follow the crowd this time, but anyway, Fang Xuanling was also from the Tiance Mansion lineage, but his status among the officials of the Tiance Mansion was second only to the eldest grandson Wuji.
It is certainly inevitable that we will be implicated in this.
As soon as he thought of being given a cold bench by the emperor in a few days, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.
Now that the two sons are in their infancy, they are not fledgling, if he sits on the cold bench again, I am afraid that the two sons will also have a worrying future.
Alas...... It's really fateful, I didn't expect that I would also fall into a situation that would affect my son's future.
As soon as he thought of this, he gradually disappeared the smile on his face, and a sad face appeared on his face, and he sighed.
Guo Ye was slightly happy in his heart when he saw this, and said silently, the fire has arrived!
Immediately, he moved his steps to Fang Xuanling and said softly: "Master Fang, don't hide it, today's Guo Mou's visit is not just to reminisce about the past, but mainly to solve the hidden worries of Lord Fang in the future." The right is Guo Ye to repay your kindness back then, and it is also the brotherhood that fulfills me and my beloved. ”
"Huh?"
Fang Xuanling's face tightened, as if Guo Ye had peeked out of his thoughts, and he was a little flustered in his heart, and he was eager to hide it: "What does Guo Jungong mean by this?" Fang didn't understand. ”
"Lord Fang, let's open the skylight and say something!"
Guo Ye said bluntly: "Lord Fang and the late Lord Du Ruhui are known as Fang Mou Du Du, and some things should be seen farther than ordinary people. It should not be difficult for you to see that the matter of this morning is obviously the order of His Majesty to wait for us. Moreover, His Majesty's parade to the south of the Yangtze River was also intentional. Lord Fang, let me ask you, after today's early battle, what do you think the future of Eldest Sun Wuji will be? ”
Fang Xuanling was obviously not surprised by what Guo Ye said, but as expected, he said indifferently: "Lord Eldest Sun? Now, what is his future? After His Majesty returns to Beijing, it is already a blessing that he can save his life. ”
Guo Ye asked again: "Then what about the future of your Tiance Mansion line?" ”
Fang Xuanling shook his head and said: "Lord Eldest Sun has lost power, Tang Jian is mediocre, Yin Tianzong is dead, Qin Shubao, Cheng Biting Jin, Li Ji and others are in good shape, and most of the officials of the Tiance Mansion are implicated this time because of their vassalage to the emperor." Alas, the Tiance Mansion is now also a river and a yellow flower. Even if the remaining people can be saved in the future, morale will be greatly lost. ”
Guo Ye sighed, and said in his heart, the analysis is objective.
"In that case, has Master Fang ever planned for his future?"
Guo Ye stared at Fang Xuanling's face, and asked directly: "If you also follow in the footsteps of Lord Changsun, where do you put my bequeathed two brothers?" Master Fang should know in his heart that they are now fledgling, and they need you, the father, to help them. As the so-called good wind relies on its strength, it helps me to go up for nine days. If you are still there, you are the good wind of the two brothers. If they lose power, not only will they not be of good interest to their brothers, but they will be involved in both of them and hinder their brothers' future. Master Fang, you should have thought about all of this, right? ”
"Hiss......"
Fang Xuanling's face stiffened, he took a sharp breath of cool air, looked at Guo Ye with a little unkind eyes, and shouted in a low voice: "Guo Ye, what do you want to say?" Let's just say it......"
"Happy, if I hide it again, it seems that I am taking advantage of others."
Immediately, Guo Ye told the set of statements that he had discussed with Li Jing and Kong Yingda before......
"No way!"
Fang Xuanling was furious and shouted: "Absolutely not, if I do this, where will I put the interests of the Long clan?" ”
"Guan Long clan?"
Guo Ye sneered: "Lord Fang, with your eyesight, do you think Your Majesty will tolerate the interests of your Guan Long clan to continue to grow and endanger the imperial power in the end?" His Majesty will not tolerate any hidden dangers that hinder and hinder the Tang Dynasty and endanger the country. He can even be ruthless to the emperor and the crown prince, will he still be merciful to you? ”
Fang Xuanling shook his head stubbornly and said, "But I can't ignore the interests of the Guanlong clan for the sake of my own interests." What is the difference between this and a traitor? ”
Guo Ye said: "It seems that Master Fang has really lost his heart and can never get it back." Have you forgotten the original intention of becoming an official back then? Do you want to be like the eldest grandson Wuji and them, disregarding the interests of the empire for their own selfish interests? ”
"No, I didn't," Fang Xuanling shook his head like a rattle again, and hurriedly defended, "I am loyal and have never been selfish. ”
"Wrong, since the day you and the eldest grandson Wuji stood in the court for the benefit of the Guanlong clan, you have taken the wrong path."
Guo Ye sighed softly: "Lord Fang, I hope you will carefully consider Guo's opinion. The Guan Long clan is a big tiger in the way of the empire's advancement, and His Majesty's determination to fight the tiger will not change. Emperor Taishang, Prince Chengqian, King Lu, King Jing, King Daoxiao, and the eldest grandson Wuji and others are examples of the past. It is foreseeable that the Guanlong clan will fall, and all the fetters that hinder the progress of the empire will be cleansed. On that day, if you continue to join the same stream, you will be old enough, but you will be dragged down by you because you have left behind your love for the two brothers. ”
Speaking of this, Guo Ye looked at Fang Xuanling solemnly, and admonished in an aggravated tone: "Lord Fang, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the two brothers." Now that Your Majesty has not returned to Chang'an, the time is still quite rich, I hope you can think about it carefully and give me an answer as soon as possible. ”
After saying that, Guo Ye arched his hand, walked to the door without saying a word, pushed the door out, left the study, and went straight home.
Fang Xuanling propped himself on the desk with one hand, and said silently with a tangled expression: "Could it be that I was wrong at the beginning?" Conform to the trend, conform to the times, for the sake of bereavement, for the bereavement of love......"
"Father!"
Fang Yizhi suddenly appeared at the door and said respectfully: "Father, the second brother sent someone to send a letter from Liangcai County. He mentioned in the letter that in the past few days, he has encountered another lawsuit that is difficult to judge, and he wants your father to support him. ”
"This kid ......"
When Fang Xuanling heard this, a relieved smile couldn't help but appear on his face, and he gently blamed: "Now that they are all dignified county orders, there are still cases that will not be judged." Come in, and tell your father about this lawsuit. ”
"Whoa!"
Fang Yu held the letter in his hand and stepped into the study.
……
……
After a long time, Guo Ye returned to his home in Taipingfang.
As soon as you entered the gate of the Pingyang County Mansion, someone hurriedly reported: "Your Excellency, you are back, there is a guest in the flower hall who has been waiting for you for a long time." Madame said that she was pregnant, and she was a woman, so it was inconvenient for her to entertain you, so the guest was waiting for you in the flower hall all the time. ”
Guo Ye stopped and asked, "What is the origin of this guest, do you know?" ”
The porter nodded and said, "Déjà vu, if the little one remembers correctly, it should be the eldest grandson and the third son who came to our house as a guest before." ”
The eldest grandson and the third son?
Eldest grandson Yumo? Hasn't this kid been heard from so far? And now from which corner did it come from?
With a bang, Guo Ye suddenly raised his feet and stepped inside, heading straight to the flower hall.
