In the evening, Fang Xuanling sent someone to recruit Fang Jun.

The father and son sat in the study, Fang Xuanling told him about today's conversation with Liu Xun, and then said: "Tomorrow, there will probably be a supervising imperial history coming, and then it will definitely be submitted to His Majesty, you don't need to ask about this matter, and you must not interfere." ”

Fang Junqi said: "Could it be that these guys think that a piece of impeachment can help their father?" ”

Looking at the government and the opposition, all the civil and military ministers are counted, how many people have Fang Xuanling's current prestige and status? That is, in the past two years, Fang Xuanling has grown older and is a little tired of the government affairs of the DPRK and China, and there is a tendency to fade out of the center, otherwise who would dare to give him eye medicine?

The eldest grandson Wuji can't do it either!

Fang Xuanling drank tea and said casually: "The so-called desirelessness is rigid, my father has long looked down on the world at this age, what can they do to me?" The purpose is naturally you. ”

Fang Jun had been an official in his previous life, and he had been in the court for a few years in this life, so he naturally had a deep understanding of the intrigue in the officialdom, and after a little thought, he understood what Fang Xuanling meant.

This is because someone saw that his official fortune was too prosperous, and wanted to suppress it......

As long as a few imperial historians are gathered for impeachment, and a few ministers above the court express their doubts, it is equivalent to adding a stain to Fang Junping, which is not a stain. Plain nature doesn't matter, Fang Jun himself doesn't care much about his reputation, but when facing the scene, for example, His Majesty wants to promote Fang Jun...... Although there will be no evidence to impeach, as long as there is this gap, most of the civil officials led by the Jiangnan Shi clan can collectively resist it, and the Guanlong group, which has a deep dislike for Fang Jun, will inevitably go along with it, so even if the emperor wants to promote Fang Jun, it will not work.

It is impossible for the emperor to be the enemy of most of the courtiers, after all, Jiajing and others who fought against the Manchu ministers with their own strength will only have a ......

But Fang Jun was still a little puzzled: "Father, at this age, my son is already the left squire of the military department, and he is in charge of the right guard army, how can he say that he is a young man with a bright future, is it necessary to further become the target of public criticism?" ”

It's not impossible for him to make a little black material disgusting, but it's time-limited. After more than ten or twenty years, if the emperor wants to be promoted to an official who is handsome, who can still talk about today's affairs?

Fang Jun doesn't think that he still needs to be promoted at the moment, and he doesn't think that the emperor will promote his official, and if he is promoted again, he will be the secretary of the military department, one of the dignified nine kings, how old is he? It's not twenty yet......

Fang Xuanling shook his head, looked at his son, and asked, "Erlang told his father the truth, you are in the officialdom, can you have ambitions in your chest?" ”

There are many officials in the world, which are roughly divided into two kinds, one is to be an official for the sake of promotion, and the other is to be promoted for the sake of doing things. To be an official for the sake of promotion, there is only fame and fortune in his eyes, and there is no lower limit to his actions; I was promoted in order to do things because I had ambitions in my chest and wanted to show my talents.

But since you want to help Shikuang, you must have a relatively higher platform to display your talents, so as long as you are in the officialdom, no matter what your purpose is as an official, you will eventually aspire to be promoted......

Fang Jun is naturally ambitious, if he is reborn in a life that only eats and waits for death to be a salted fish, it is too boring, and he always has to apply what he has learned in his heart in this era, and maybe he can try to change the trajectory of some history.

Fang Jun looked at his father and said, "Naturally, there is." ”

Fang Xuanling smiled and said with relief: "The official is the best, it is definitely not the worldly people who imagine that they will only covet power and power, and when they reach that status, they almost don't care about fame and fortune and vulgar things, and what they have in their eyes is only this splendid country, which can guide the country and scold Fang Xuan, and live up to the great man's body with the ambition of life!" You are a young man this year, you seem to be young, and you have a chance to be promoted, but you are not. Your Majesty is now in its prime, and it is not impossible to rule for another 30 years, how old were you at that time? It's almost the year of knowing the destiny of heaven! Even if the crown prince ascends the throne at that time and crowns you as the head of Zaifu, all the major military affairs will be decided by you, and how much time will be left for you to govern this country and squander your ambitions to the fullest? Twenty years? Thirty years? Far from enough! ”

Speaking of this, looking at his stunned son, he leaned forward slightly, and said slowly: "It is said that governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, which means that it is to govern by doing nothing in accordance with the times, but in this way, what is the point of you sitting on the throne for twenty or thirty years, even if it is a hundred years?" It's just a symbol in the history books. If you don't want to make such a splendid river and mountain fall apart, you must not be in a hurry, you must use ten years to plan, then ten years to pry, then ten years to struggle, and finally, use the rest of your life to implement ......"

Fang Xuanling's eyes flashed with wisdom: "So, do you still think it's too late?" ”

Fang Jun admired it so much that he threw himself to the ground......

If you want to pursue the ambition in his heart, the only way is to change the law, reform the system of the feudal dynasty one by one, and extract its essence from its dregs.

But how many people have changed the law in history?

Fan Zhongyan, Wang Anshi, Zhang Juzheng, Wuxu Six Gentlemen...... All of these people are famous in history, but what about their changes? Qingli New Deal, Wang Anshi Reform, a Whip, Wuxu Reform...... All of them flourished for a while, but in the end, they were either brutally suppressed or killed.

The main reason for such an end is that it touched the bottom line of vested interests and suffered a crazy backlash.

"All countries change the law, all from the bloodshed, today China has not heard of a person who shed blood because of the change of the law, the reason why this country is not prosperous" This sentence seems to be very loyal and bloody, and it can make people listen to the blood surging and impassioned, Fang Jun never thinks that those sages who are willing to recommend Xuanyuan for the sake of their ideals are using their lives to invite fame, but in fact, this sentence is just saying.

You have moved the foundation of others and achieved your ideals, but you have cut off the way of life of others, how can you not shed blood? Either your blood is shed or other people's blood is shed, but the formation of interest strata is brought about by historical reasons, and if you want to dig out the foundation of the interest stratum, it means that you will be the enemy of the whole society and go against the trend of history.

Even if you can achieve temporary results, how can you be invincible in the end?

Of course, there was a great man who did something that no one else had done in the past, and he turned the whole society upside down, and all the interests were brought down...... However, the ultimate result of such things that go against the trend of history is the collapse of the social structure, the lack of people's faith, and the severance of historical inheritance......

Was this a success or a failure?

The course of history is a gradual process, today you use violent means to reverse it, but the general trend of history is still moving forward, maybe 20 years, maybe 30 years, the road that should be taken will eventually go, and the road that should come will come after all.

And the loss during this period is enough to make people's hearts ache......

The traverser is not omnipotent, but the traverser is born with a divine perspective, can stand in the clouds and look down on all beings, and use his own knowledge and experience to correct some mistakes, that's all. If you want to change something, you can only conform to the long river of history, and in this river you can revise and change subtly, trying to change your life against the sky and succeed in one day, it is simply self-defeating.

So Fang Xuanling's theory is correct.

If you want to realize those reforms that seem unbelievable to the Tang Dynasty, it is impossible overnight, and you can only use a long time to imperceptibly, correct, and guide.

And to do that, first you have to sit in that position for a long time, and then you have to live long enough......

Of course, what Fang Xuanling said was correct, but as a traverser, Fang Jun could also see things that Fang Xuanling could not predict.

That is, he expected the crown prince to ascend the throne twenty or thirty years later, which was a big mistake.

His Majesty Li Er is indeed at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period at the moment, but his longevity will never last long...... Fang Jun is a butterfly that stirs the world, but he is not arrogant enough to think that he can influence the fortunes of an emperor. Don't say anything stupid about "things are man-made", this kind of thing "Heavenly Dao" is mysterious and mysterious, although it can't be seen or touched, no one can deny its existence.

An emperor who has the fortune of the world, his fate can be changed if you want to?

I just don't know how Daddy wants to get promoted?

After all, he is "conniving" at those imperial historians to impeach him......
