Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1997
When he was very young, Xiao Siye traveled around with Empress Xiao, and he was precarious, and finally settled outside the Great Wall, where he lived with barbarians, cattle and sheep, slept in a yurt and drank mare's milk, and endured hardships.

He remembered the glory of the past, looked forward to the prosperity of the Han family, and dreamed of returning to Chang'an.

Then, when he came back, he suddenly found that he had been isolated and alienated for a long time. Although the blood of the family still flowed in his body, he was still out of tune with the family, and it was still difficult to integrate...

At this moment, he was both angry and sad, and the warmth of the family in his childhood memories was instantly shattered.

Just because I am afraid that I will offend Fang Jun and harm the interests of the family, I will be sent to the frontier again, to experience the bitter cold and hardship in the north of the Great Wall, and face the war that may break out at any time?

What's more, Ashina Simo and the Xiao family have always had animosity. Letting me go to Dingxiang at this moment and control myself under Ashina Simo's command is no different from sending sheep to the tiger's mouth?
It was snowing heavily and the north wind was cold.

heart is colder...

Xiao Siye sat blankly in the pavilion, greedily watching the scenery in the garden, white snow, red plums, gazebo, clay oven, rockery, green pine, white walls and black tiles, there are rows of ridges and raised corners There is a copper wind chime hanging below, making a crisp sound...

After a long time, he took a deep breath, buckled the teacup in his hand and put it on the table, tightened his clothes, turned around and walked into the heavy snow.

This is his family, his roots.

But he never wants to come back in this life...

*****
Back in Lishan, Fang Jun unexpectedly discovered that Xue Wanche was also there.

Not only he is here, but Princess Jiujiang is also...

The ground dragon is burning in the main hall, and the room is as warm as spring. On the table by the window is a white porcelain vase, in which there are a few freshly cut plum blossoms inserted obliquely. The pink and white buds are blooming, which is really beautiful.

Fang Jun stepped forward to greet him, and said strangely: "The virtuous couple come to visit together, please forgive me for not welcoming you far away, it is impolite and impolite."

Xue Wanche laughed and said, "Why do you have to look out of the way? My wife and I ran to the door without saying hello, which is a bit abrupt."

Princess Jiujiang's pretty face was tense, her eyelids drooped, and she looked a little worried.

Fang Jun took his seat and glanced at Princess Jiujiang, feeling a little puzzled, did he not provoke this person?
"It's snowing all over the sky, and the road is difficult to walk. Does the general have something to do?"

"I came to say goodbye to Erlang." Xue Wanche said.

Fang Jun was stunned.

This heavy snowfall was an airflow from the north, which not only covered the entire Guanzhong, but also fell heavily in Dingxiang. At this time of year, the Hu people on the grassland had a hard time, so they thought about going south to meet the Han people. The more food, livestock, and people there are, the more the better, and it is commonly known as "threshing grass valley"...

Recently, the Ministry of War has been connected to Dingxiang's report, and the Turkic descendants are faintly uneasy. Xue Yantuo even gathered a large army under the leadership of the two sons of Yinan Khan, and Chen Bing border, ready to move.It's just that Fang Jun devoted all his attention to the cultivation of seeds, and such military affairs were ruled by the Political Affairs Hall, so he didn't take it to heart.

Anyway, Xue Yantuo will not be jumping for a few years, no matter whether Goguryeo is pacified or not, as long as Datang is free to attack, the next target is Xue Yantuo...

It's just that the imperial court can't be unmoved, and Xue Yantuo sent a general to Dingxiang to sit in town despite Xue Yantuo's power, which is what it should be.

Now it seems that the general sent there is Xue Wanche...

"Northern borders are unstable, Xue Yantuo's army is assembled, and he intends to go south at any time, and the Turks are not restless. His Majesty has already issued an order, ordering me to lead You Wuwei to Dingxiang to guard against Xue Yantuo, and let Ashina Simo sit down and calm down." Xiangdan was in the Duhu Mansion to restrain the Turks from descending. The military is urgent, so I came to say goodbye to Erlang."

For a while now, Xue Wanche has been quite close to Fang Jun. This person has no heart. He had fun with Fang Jun, and even won a slave trading business out of thin air. He made a lot of money every day. There are only a handful of people who treat him, so Fang Jun has long been regarded as a hard-core friend, so it is natural to say goodbye before leaving.

It's just that when he said this, for some reason, his expression was a little sad and sad...

Fang Jun is puzzled, it's just a campaign, as a general, you don't need to carry a sword to go into battle, why should you have this look?
Nodding his head, he said: "So, I wish the general a successful victory and success in no time!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Princess Jiujiang with a cold face.

Since it is farewell, what do you mean by coming...

Sensing Fang Jun's suspicious and puzzled gaze, Princess Jiujiang raised her eyes and gave Fang Jun a hard look, her pretty face was still expressionless, she just said indifferently: "The general is going out to fight against the enemy, I'm afraid it will be too late It will take a while before we can win and return to court. From now on, I will be in charge of your slave business. You men will fight to the death and be loyal to the country immediately. It is better not to worry about such trivial matters."

Fang Jun caught a glimpse of the muscles on Xue Wanche's face twitching violently...

Fang Jun understood immediately.

Regardless of whether it is a man or a woman, economic income and political achievements represent family status, which has never been the case throughout the ages.Why were ancient women reduced to vassals?It is because the rules of Confucianism constrain women, making them unable to earn economic benefits for the family, let alone become officials in public. If things go on like this, a vicious circle leads to the complete decline of women's status.

Now that Xue Wanche has started to make a lot of money through the slave trade, his waist has naturally hardened. How can the always strong Princess of Jiujiang bear it?However, Xue Wanche is a stubborn ass, blindly suppressing him will not only fail to make him succumb, but will backfire and accelerate the rift between husband and wife. Therefore, Princess Jiujiang is planning to cut off the root cause of Xue Wanche's waist stiffness.

Maybe he didn't take the opportunity to cut off Xue Wanche's intention to drag the young and beautiful Silla maidservant into the room...

But Fang Jun, who gave Xue Wanche these benefits, not only did not get the gratitude of Princess Jiujiang, but instead regarded him as the chief culprit for pushing Xue Wanche to revive his husband's class.
Fang Jun smiled awkwardly, a little embarrassed.

He really meant to push Xue Wanche at first, because after hearing Xue Wanche's complaints, he felt that this guy was very pitiful, and he had the same disease as Fang Yiai in history, and it was inevitable that some things would hurt him. ?

How difficult it is to be the son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty!
Not only have to bear the shame of "bastard", but also be implicated by ambitious princesses at any time.

Let Xue Wanche's waist be hardened, and make things difficult for Princess Jiujiang, why not do it...

However, I feel a little embarrassed to be called at the door at this moment. In the final analysis, this is a family matter, and it was later proved that Princess Jiujiang did not let Xue Wanche be the king, but just tried with the maid "Fake Phoenix" Fang Jun is inevitably guilty of new tricks.

After thinking about it, he asked Xue Wanche, "What does the general think?"

You two fight at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed, why am I meddling with an outsider?The previous actions are already unreasonable. It's up to the two of you to discuss how to deal with it now. In any case, it's not my fault.

Of course, to ask Xue Wanche in front of Princess Jiujiang, how dare he say "no" to Xue Wanche?All the courage of this great general was exhausted when he suspected that the princess of Jiujiang was not a woman.

Sure enough, Xue Wanche said dejectedly, "According to the princess, it means..."

Fang Jun said quickly: "Then according to His Highness's wishes, wait for the minister to inform Jin Famin later."

Princess Jiujiang seemed to see Fang Jun's intentions, and said indifferently: "Erlang and my Shiro are friends, so I am naturally happy, but it's just other people's business, even brothers have to stay out of it, rashly intervene, it's easy to be wrong inside and outside .”

Fang Jun nodded, this was a warning, and hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness misunderstood, although the humble minister and General Xue are not in the same age, but when they were young, they played and messed around behind General Xue. This feeling is nothing more than a family member. In the past, General Xue played with Weichen, but now Weichen has a way to make a fortune in his hands. If he doesn’t share the profit with General Xue, is it possible to return it to outsiders? I hope His Highness will learn from you."

Xue Wanche was so grateful that tears welled up in his eyes, good boy, it’s no shame that I brought eleven or twelve-year-old you to drink flowers and wine, fight dogs and fight dogs for money...

"Humph."

Princess Jiujiang snorted softly, accepting Fang Jun's explanation.

Although he knew that this mallet had no good intentions at all, but such an arrogant and domineering person was willing to bow his head and give in, if he refused to let him go, he would be stupid.

Glancing at Fang Jun, he said, "Since Erlang also said that we are not outsiders, then there is a saying, I think it is necessary to mention Erlang, lest you make a mistake."

Fang Jun said modestly: "Please speak, Your Highness."

"Erlang is young and promising, and he is highly valued by his father. He should love himself. In the future, don't have anything to do with my sister Fangling..."

Fang Jun's eyes widened.

When did we have anything to do with that slut?
Injustice and in vain!
