Now, the Cui family is at this crossroads, whether to hand the knife to Yuan Shao or go to another peak when he falls to Liu Bei, even Cui Yan himself can't see clearly, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei are too strong, so strong that he can no longer see the original appearance, and can only rely on intuition and guessing to tell the difference.

This is actually the feeling of most families, who is strong and who is weak in Yuan Liu is related to too many things, and the only judgment they can rely on is the previous kind of which side of the family is more and that side is stronger.

In this era, the family represents knowledge, money, food, and population, so most families seem to Yuan Shao to be stronger, but to the extent that Cui Yan can vaguely grasp some clues and see some wrong!

As for Xun Yu's level, the guy who can tell Xun Chen that comprehensive defense is the best policy, I'm afraid everyone who should know knows, but unfortunately some words can't be completely convinced by guessing, Xun Yu can't arrive at the battlefield in person after all, otherwise, I'm afraid he will make a more accurate judgment.

It's a pity that Cui Yan is not a top figure like Xun Yu, and he can't convince the patriarch of his family just by relying on some speculation.

To be precise, since the previous mistake in choosing Cao Cao, Cui Yan's position has been shaken a little, if it weren't for the fact that the Qinghe Cui family really doesn't have a figure who can show his hand more than Cui Yan, I'm afraid that Cui Yan's position is not shaken at all now, and he may even step down.

[Alas, you must not be wrong a second time, if you make a mistake again, I am afraid that there will be no Qinghe Cui family. Cui Yan looked up to the sky and sighed, his current burden was already very heavy, and there was a slight mistake or omission. I'm afraid that many of them are in the ground.

"Lord, someone is coming." A servant said to Cui Yan.

"Who is it?" Cui Yan calmed down his mentality, so as not to be seen from his expression later.

"The brother of the head of the house." The servant bowed his head and replied.

"Deru?" Cui Yan asked with his head sideways. Then he said, "Prepare the feast and invite him in, and clean up the feast in the backyard by the way." ”

Soon Cui Lin was led by the servant and entered the room to Cui Yan's room, compared to Cui Yan in a brocade robe, Cui Lin was wearing a lot more shabby.

"Brother, do you know what I'm doing here." Cui Lin didn't say anything to Cui Yan. Once seated, we went straight to the point.

"Unknown." Cui Yan could roughly guess it, but he denied it without changing his face, he wanted to know how Cui Lin could convince himself.

"Brother don't deceive me." Cui Lin shook his head, "I'm here for Liu Xuande, Qinghe is in such a mess, the Cui family won't jump out of the quagmire at this time." And when. ”

"But if you do it now. What should I do when I jump out of the quagmire only to find myself in another, bigger quagmire? Cui Yan sighed and said, his clan brother was looked down upon in the Cui family because of his stupidity, but only he knew that the other party was really wise, but it was a pity that he couldn't express it.

"Grain Road!" Cui Lin raised a finger and said, and in an instant Cui Yan suddenly brightened, but he was still a little hesitant.

"In this way, if Liu Xuande still can't win, then it is impossible for him to share the title of the overlord of the world with Yuan Shao." Cui Lin said presencely.

"Indeed!" Cui Yan nodded. Their Cui family has such an opportunity, why don't they give it a go. Even if Liu Xuande is really bad, if he still loses to Yuan Shao under the condition that they have created such a big advantage, it can only be said that the Qinghe Cui family has the best luck, and as for the Cui family's own Boling lineage!

With Cui Lin's words, Cui Yan no longer hesitated, and immediately ordered someone to invite Xin Bi and Zhu Ling to have a banquet, and at the same time sent someone to inform Xu Shu and Wei Yan, but Xin Bi and Zhu Ling came, but Xu Shu and Wei Yan found out that Gao Ran was going to Yanzhou at that time, and immediately led the army to withdraw.

Although Xin Bi and Zhu Ling came, they were obviously on guard, and even Xin Bi did not hide his suspicions about Cui Yan, after all, although the current Qinghe Cui family is still a wealthy family in Jizhou, they have some understanding of the battle with Cui Jun.

As the defeated Qinghe Cui family, they will not be looked down upon, after all, the upper echelons know that the defeat of the Qinghe Cui family is due to Yuan Shaola's bias, but at this juncture, Cui Yan invited them to the banquet, so they couldn't help but think about it more.

The servants who went to investigate went quickly and returned quickly, and rushed back before Cui Yan was ready to meet Xin Bi, and then informed Cui Yan of the unfortunate news, and immediately Cui Yan was a little stunned, and finally made up his mind, but Liu Beijun actually left, could there be something big.

However, at this time, Cui Yan also knew that he couldn't dwell on this, so he immediately went out to greet Xin Bi and Zhu Ling with a smile.

"George, Wenbo, I'm afraid both of you suspect that my banquet today is ill-intentioned." Cui Yan bowed with a smile on his face, and then invited the two to enter the hall, and then said with a gentle face.

"Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be overlooked." Xin Bi said without changing his face.

"Do you think I'm a soldier who doesn't know how to read the military?" Cui Yan's cheeks jumped, but he still held back his annoyance and said.

"It's just that everything has to be cautious, and I ask Ji Jue for forgiveness." Xin Bi didn't care about Cui Yan's expression, and said very flatly, and almost said that we don't want to eat this meal, and we will talk about it when we have time later.

"Hmph, come on, send off guests, since the two of you are like this, my Cui family doesn't need to be welcomed." Cui Yan flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked away directly, leaving Xin Bi and Zhu Ling in the living room, and then several servants came out to send Xin Bi and Zhu Ling out.

Just before Xin Bi and Zhu Ling could react, the two of them were sent out of the Cui family by the Cui family's servants, and the two of them were immediately confused.

"I'm afraid we're targeting the Cui family." Zhu Ling said with a wry smile.

"Alas, at this juncture, you still have to be cautious, if you are offended now, there will be a chance to repay it in the future, but now that you have lost Ganling, the great cause of the lord will be affected." Xin Bi sighed, although he had long known that Cui Yan was upright, but this kind of behavior that made people unable to get off the stage really made Xin Bi a little embarrassed, but Xin Bi was relieved.

"Xin Changshi, Steward Cui asked me to hand over this item to you, saying that it was given to you by the head of the family." At this time, Xin Bi was thinking about whether to wait until after the war to visit the Cui family, and a personal guard ran over.

Xin Bi took the letter, skimmed it roughly, couldn't help but be stunned, and then handed it to Zhu Ling, and Zhu Ling was also overjoyed after reading it.

"It's worthy of being a local snake, and he can even get such information." Zhu Ling said with a sigh.

"Send someone to investigate, explore the range of a hundred miles, if Xu Shu really withdraws the army, then we will go to apologize to him." Xin Bi is also a person who can afford to let go, and immediately said, in fact, he is very sure that the other party can send this kind of information, and it will basically not be fake.
