Waves of shame and annoyance hit his heart, making Changsun Wuji regret his mistake.
The nephews, wives and concubines around him gathered around and made a fuss. One asked him how he was injured, and the other said angrily that he would take revenge. Their moans were like a gathering of ghosts and birds filling the door. Changsun Wuji was already in a bad mood, regretful, angry, ashamed, depressed, and so on. All kinds of emotions gathered in my heart, and I was so noisy by these people that my brain hurt. My temples on both sides bulged as if they were about to burst. I raised my hand and wanted to blast all these people out, but in the end I couldn't take a breath. I rolled my eyes and started again. Fainted...
There was an explosion in the bedroom.
Some people were wailing and crying, some were beating their feet and chests, some were angry and threatened to make the Fang family pay, and some hurriedly ran out to chase the imperial doctor who had just walked away...
The whole mansion was in chaos.
Without Changsun Wuji, the backbone and backbone of the family, the world-famous Changsun family is just an ordinary family, leaderless and a ragtag bunch.
*****
The atmosphere in Liang Guogong's mansion, which is also located in Chongrenfang, is completely different.
The eldest grandson Wuji came to the house to cause trouble, and the whole family was indignant. Your eldest grandson's family is indeed a holy family member and the mainstay of Guanlong, but our Fang family is not good enough? The Shandong family has been passed down for thousands of years, and the poems, books and etiquette are the best in China. Who the hell looks down on you Xianbei barbarians who become rampant when they gain power?
It’s so deceiving!
However, Fang Xuanling's throw of the teacup not only completely wiped out Changsun Wuji's face, but also brought the entire Fang family's morale to a climax!
What about Duke Zhao?
What about the Taiwei?
If you dare to act nonsense, you will be punished!
Fang Xuanling, who has always been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people with his modest and gentlemanly appearance, made this reckless move make the entire Fang family realize his staunchness.
It turns out that the head of the family is not just a gentleman who only knows benevolence, justice and morality. He is also a warrior who can kill thieves with a sword and a horse in anger!
As the saying goes, like father, like son, Erlang has such a strong temper, how can I be a submissive coward?
…
In the main hall, the broken tea cups on the floor had been cleaned up and even mopped with a mop, but no trace of blood could be seen at all.
Fang Xuanling sat at the main seat, sipping tea, a little distracted.
Is he really a gentle, humble and frugal person? He rarely quarrels with others in his life, and he never refuses to speak harshly to others, let alone hit them? Today, I couldn't bear it anymore and threw the tea cup on Changsun Wuji's face. Although the depression in my heart was drained away and I felt relieved, it was inevitable that I was not used to it.
Beside him, Mrs. Lu was smiling, constantly serving tea and water, and the tenderness and sweetness in her eyes almost turned into water and dripped out...
Although she was born into one of the world's most wealthy families and received the best education since she was a child, she did not develop a temperament that tolerates humiliation and is as gentle as water. The vast land of Shandong endowed her with a straightforward personality.
I won't offend anyone if they don't offend me, but if someone bullies me to the point of being bullied, then I'll fight him back!
In the past, Fang Xuanling was always too rational. It seemed that everything could be easily resolved with his wisdom and ability, and he never refused to fight back in a manly way. This made Lu very unhappy...
But Fang Xuanling's performance today perfectly fits the girl's dream she once had in her heart - a young man on a white horse, walking with a sword, with benevolence and righteousness in his heart, and a sharp edge hidden in his sword!
Why is Erlang so popular among women? He can make Princess Gaoyang, who was born into a noble family, fall in love with her. Wu Meiniang, who has unparalleled strategizing in the city, is devoted to her. Xiao Shuer, who is as gentle as water, knows books and is courteous, falls in love with him. Even the Princess of Silla She is eagerly waiting to marry into the Fang family and is willing to become a concubine... Isn't it just because her son is talented and responsible?
She, Mrs. Lu, is also a woman, and she also loves such a young man!
Once again, he replaced the tea that Fang Xuanling had just drank, and placed a plate of snacks within Fang Xuanling's reach, causing Fang Xuanling to frown and question: "What are you doing, madam? I am I haven’t finished the tea yet, and I still have these pastries, so I’m not hungry.”
If it were in the past, Mrs. Lu would have simply thrown away and left, rushing to serve you, but you still don't appreciate it, right? Then just go and play by yourself.
But today, Mrs. Lu was uncharacteristic of herself and said softly: "Before breakfast was finished, the old thief Changsun Wuji made a fuss about you. Now that you are old, you are not as good as when you were young. Drinking tea on an empty stomach hurts your intestines and stomach. It’s better to eat a few pastries.”
Fang Xuanling was not used to his wife being so gentle and careless. She raised her head in astonishment and saw the watery tenderness in his wife's eyes... She shuddered subconsciously.
The look in his eyes seemed to be asking for comfort every night in the dead of night... Fang Xuanling couldn't help but wailed, Madam, we are an old husband and wife, you have to take pity on your husband's body and bones, right? You also know that as we get older, we are no longer as capable as we were when we were young. Sometimes we are really powerless...
Feeling weak in my heart, I couldn't help but cough dryly and whispered: "Let me have an idea, the children are still here."
Lu's face was confused. She turned around and looked at Princess Gaoyang, Wu Meiniang, Xiao Shu'er, Du and others sitting in the hall. She thought to herself: What did I say? What did you do? Why can't I serve you tea and water when the children are here? It's just baffling...
…
Princess Gao Yang looked at Fang Xuanling with admiration.
Who would have thought that Fang Xuanling, who has always been gentle and gentle, and even refused to speak loudly to maintain his identity and image, could get angry and fight when others slandered his son?
That's Changsun Wuji...
"Father, although this matter has been settled for the time being, Erlang was summoned into the palace by his father. I wonder what kind of punishment he will receive?"
Mrs. Lu glanced at her and said with some dissatisfaction: "Now you know that you are worried about your husband? I'm not telling you for my mother's sake. How can you not know what kind of temper Erlang has? Maybe he has a bad temper, but he is always pampered at home. You, I have spoiled you, and I have never brought a young and beautiful maid into the house without your back. Look, who among the children of the aristocratic families in Chang'an City can compare with him? In the end, because His Majesty granted a marriage, he married the Princess of Silla. Being his concubine, you all become dissatisfied, and even hide away altogether... As a woman, you usually play a little bit of a little temper, which doesn't matter, but you still have to remember, don't be jealous, that is The source of unrest for the whole family.”
She was talking about Princess Gaoyang, but her eyes included Wu Meiniang and Xiao Shuer.
What's wrong with a husband taking a concubine?
It is natural for a man to have three wives and four concubines. What's more, this time it was not Erlang who took the initiative to take concubines, but His Majesty granted the marriage. Can you refuse it if you want to?
The results of it?
As a wife, she stays away from home all day long. Today she goes to her sister's house, and tomorrow she goes to the Taoist temple in Zhongnan Mountain. As a concubine, one hides at the dock in the south of the city and excuses herself from going home due to complicated matters, and the other hides in her own small yard. No one is there...
outrageous.
Logically speaking, as a mistress, it is her duty to teach her daughter-in-law a lesson, and even Her Royal Highness the Princess would not have any objection.
But after Lu's words came out, the atmosphere in the lobby instantly became weird.
The corner of Princess Gao Yang's mouth twitched, she had something to say but held it back; Wu Meiniang's eyes wandered, scanning Fang Xuanling from time to time, suppressing a smile; Xiao Shu'er lowered her head, a little shy, a little worried, and a little funny. …
Fang Xuanling put down the tea cup in his hand, looked at his wife depressedly, and asked: "Isn't it inappropriate to be so inconsistent and without sincerity?"
You talk the same thing in front of your daughter-in-law, but how do you do it yourself?
Why can't you refuse the emperor's marriage offer?
Back then, His Majesty Li Er gave me two little maids who were as beautiful as flowers and jade. What did you do?
I would rather die than obey!
When it comes to your son, you turn the other way?
This is too much!
Lu's face turned red, and she felt a little guilty. She had to pretend to be angry and said, "Is this the time to argue about these trivial matters? Now that my son is being slandered, there will definitely be a big fuss, and now he has been recruited into the palace by His Majesty. I’m gone, and I don’t know what kind of punishment I’m going to suffer... Why don’t you think of a countermeasure quickly?”
Fang Xuanling was speechless.
Did I bring this up?
My whole life is ruined in your hands...
But I only have a few good years to live in this life, so if it’s ruined, just ruin it, I’m too lazy to argue with you.
He picked up the tea cup again, sighed slightly, and said: "Changsun Wuji was too cruel this time. He made up his mind to completely block Erlang's way into the military aircraft office, even if it cost him his face. This time, I’m afraid it will go as he wishes.”
Princess Gao Yang immediately became anxious: "What kind of truth is this? It's impossible for Erlang to kill Changsun Chong. After all, even if it was Erlang who did it, there must be real evidence. Is it possible that just because of Changsun Wuji's mouth? Can you condemn people?"
