Chapter 33: To Luoyang
The Cui family is located on the banks of the Zhangshui River, and after thousands of years of development, no one can say how much it occupies.
The Cui family compound is located in the south of the Cui family village, with pavilions and pavilions, which is very quiet.
On both sides of the gate of the courtyard stands a white marble marble lion more than one meter high.
There is a pentagonal pavilion in the courtyard-like courtyard facing the gate, and the five pillars and steps of the pavilion, as well as the round table and stone drum in the pavilion are made of white marble.
On both sides of the pavilion, there is a large white marble stele carried by a turtle more than one meter wide and four or five meters high.
On all four sides are walls made of blue bricks.
The thick blue tiles of the roof shimmer in the light like the scales of a black fish, and the high eaves are carved with delicate patterns of flowers and birds, showing solemnity and beauty.
Further to the middle is the blue tile roof of the main hall, there are brick carved dragon heads on both sides of the ridge, the dripping tiles are engraved with the word longevity, the steps of three white marble marble, and the steps have been paved with thick futons in advance.
The buildings in the main hall are much taller than the ordinary houses, which are five or six meters high.
It is the pentagonal pavilion that is four or five meters high, a huge wooden pillar supports the eaves of the pavilion, and the beams on the top of the pavilion are also huge trees.
There are four corpses in the quiet and solemn lobby.
Cui Dexiu, Cui Chiji and a series of important figures of the Cui family stood there with blue faces.
"Li Xingzhou, I really underestimated you."
Cui Dexiu gritted his teeth and looked at Li Xingzhou.
"I thought you were a prominent dog, but I didn't expect you to be a wolf with a wolf's heart and lungs."
As the de facto head of the Cui family, Cui Yulun's death has made Cui Dexiu's years of hard work about to be ruined.
At this time, Cui Dexiu was very annoyed, and his usual qi cultivation kung fu was gone.
If Cui Dexiu is an ordinary person hidden behind the scenes on weekdays, then Cui Dexiu at this time shows the majesty of being in charge of a state.
"Big brother, what are you talking about with him, pull it out and feed the dog."
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man in his fifties, Cui Dewen, Cui Yulun's father, who looked at Li Xingzhou with red eyes, as if he was going to eat him alive.
Li Xingzhou looked at Cui Dexiu calmly, and he looked at Cui Dewen with a smile.
"No, I want to see the Ancestor."
Li Xingzhou said with a smile.
"Do you want to know my accomplices, do you want to know who else was an accomplice in the murder of your son? You take me to see my ancestors, and I will tell you everything.
Li Xingzhou induces Cui Dewen like a bad uncle induces little Lori to eat lollipops.
"I'll kill you!"
Seeing the banter in Li Xingzhou's eyes, Cui Dewen's mood collapsed instantly, and he was about to rush over shouting.
"Third brother!"
"Third brother!"
The peers of the Cui family immediately stopped Cui Dewen.
"Leave the third child behind and have a good rest!"
Cui Dexiu frowned, trying to suppress his emotions.
"Li Xingzhou, I saw that your family was having a miserable time, so I kindly arranged for you to live in Cui's house and arrange a steward for your father. The result? You repay me like this! β
"Do you know, Cui Yulun! He! It is the focus of the ancestors to cultivate, yes! You see that he is a fool of all the world, but the ancestors are of great use! β
"Do you know, Cui Anyi! Although he is not as good as you, he is the most capable of the younger generation of the Cui family, and I have already arranged for him to be the master of the place. β
"Do you know, Cui Jixiang, that's a person who has been with his ancestor for forty years! Forty years, your father Li Haode is not forty years old! β
Cui Dexiu said three in a row, do you know!
He pointed at Li Xingzhou, panting for breath.
"Father!"
Cui Chiji stood up and helped Cui Dexiu to the chair, and this situation made him have to come out and speak.
"Xingzhou, why are you doing this?"
He shook his head helplessly.
"I want to see my ancestor!"
Li Xingzhou looked at him calmly.
Cui Chiji laughed angrily.
"You want to see the old ancestor? I'm afraid you're not stunned! β
"You can write "Tobu Tianxia Chapter", "Rare Words", "Eight Glasses of Wine", I also admire you very much, but what you have done has violated the bottom line of the Cui family, and no one can save you!"
Cui Chiji looked at Li Xingzhou as if looking at a dead man.
"I want to see my ancestor!"
Li Xingzhou looked at Cui Chiji with a smile. That smile is full of banter, contempt, cold talk, and other indescribable emotions.
"Come on, pull him down and stick him to death!
Cui Chiji couldn't stand Li Xingzhou's smile anymore and drank it.
A few Cui clan people came out of the surrounding area, and they wanted to pull Li Xingzhou down.
"If you don't want your investment in you to go down the drain. You still let me meet the ancestors. β
Li Xingzhou was clasped by two arms and said calmly to Cui Chiji.
"What?"
Cui Chiji's expression changed dramatically when he heard this.
"You know everything?"
"It was you who asked Cui Wanruo to seduce me, and then let Cui Yulun take this opportunity to beat me, and finally you came forward to save me."
Li Xingzhou still looked at Cui Chiji with a smile.
He had seen a lot of this kind of green tea in his previous life, and on the surface he was purer than anyone else, but in fact he took off his pants faster than anyone else.
In fact, Li Xingzhou really didn't notice it at first, with the inherent arrogance of the traverser, he really thought that a shock to his tiger body would make Cui Wanruo fall in love with him.
Later, he found out that there is no love for no reason in this world, and there is no hate for no reason, so he dived into his heart to straighten out Cui Wanruo.
In fact, he just blew up Cui Chiji, but he didn't expect it to blow it up like this.
"I admire you very much, and I want to subdue you, but none of this is necessary now. Because no one can protect you now. β
Cui Chiji said.
"Let me see my ancestors, I don't say that I will be loyal to you, but I will owe you my life."
Li Xingzhou finally changed his sentence.
Cui Chiji stared at Li Xingzhou for a long time, and finally said.
"I'll ask the ancestors, but I can't guarantee it." β

An inconspicuous small room in the depths of the Cui family courtyard, there is a large case of Huali marble in the room, on which there are all kinds of celebrity legal texts, and dozens of treasure inkstones, all kinds of pen holders, and the pens inserted in the sea of pens are like woods.
On that side, there is a big Ru kiln flower sac, and a bag full of crystal balls is inserted in the white chrysanthemum.
On the left red sandalwood shelf is a large plate of a large official kiln, which contains dozens of delicate yellow and exquisite Buddha's hands.
On the right lacquer shelf hangs a white jade flounder, and next to it hangs a small hammer.
The white-eyed old ancestor of the Cui family still sat on the Taishi chair with a Persian cat in his arms.
And the orchid named Yu Ji stood behind the old ancestor and helped him gently rub his shoulder.
Yuhime wears a fiery red pomegranate dress.
And Li Xingzhou knelt in front of him, smiling and raising his head.
As soon as he saw Cui Chiji's different eyes, he knew that he had made the right bet.
"Tell me, why do you want to see me, an old immortal?"
After a long time, Cui Quan finally spoke slowly.
"The ascension to the throne of Empress Wu is the trend of the times. Since the fifth year of Xianqing, Empress Wu has begun to take charge of the imperial court, and in these twenty years, the power has been very solid, and if she wants to be the empress, no one can stop him. β
Li Xingzhou's history is not good, but there are still basic attempts.
Wu Zetian, the first empress of the ages, he still knows something.
After coming to this world, he found that Wu Zetian had not yet ascended the throne, but this did not prevent him from boasting.
"It's just a clichΓ©."
Cui Quan is not worth mentioning, Li Xingzhou knows that if he doesn't come with some fierce information, it is estimated that there will be no chance.
"Yes, the prime minister in the court can't do it, and the vassal king outside can't. Because Empress Wu represents the Shu clan, and represents the new gate valve that has been thrown away from you old gate valves. At present, the power of the imperial army is in the hands of the Shu people. In other words, Empress Wu is not a person, but a representative of the Shu clan in the court. I know what the reason for the Cui family not to express their position, this world is a man after all, no matter how arrogant the martial arts queen is, the world will eventually return to the hands of men, the Cui family's choice is right! β
"However, during the period when Empress Wu was in power, the Cui family had a difficult life."
"And I, I can make it less difficult for you!"
Finally, at the moment when Cui Quan's patience was about to be exhausted, Li Xingzhou finally said his purpose.
At this time, Cui Quan's eyes finally opened.
"The Cui family has tens of thousands, but I didn't expect to be seen through by a person with a foreign surname."
Cui Quan stared at Li Xingzhou for a long time, and finally spoke slowly.
"They are all a bunch of waste, afraid of the east and the west, only you know what the old man thinks."
Li Xingzhou knew that he was right, relying on the experience of his previous life, combined with the current situation of the Cui family, Li Xingzhou finally got right.
"Put me in Luoyang, my parents are in the village."
"My surname is Li, and I don't have anything to do with the Cui family on the surface, but I will let Empress Wu see the attitude of the Cui family."
"I know that the ancestors must have a backhand, and a big family like this will definitely bet long, but I am a little stronger than them."
"That is, if I don't work hard, I'll die!"
Li Xingzhou went out, he knew that if he couldn't convince Cui Quan again, he would really die.
After a long time, Cui Quan suddenly laughed.
"Hahaha, you know what? I have fifty-eight grandchildren, and I can't count them, but only you are the most like me. β
"If you boil eagles all day long, you will be pecked blind by eagles, do you think I will believe it if you use your parents as hostages? The moment you make a move, you won't care about them in your heart, this kind of words, it's enough to deceive Dexiu them! Fool an old man like me. β
"You are an eagle, I am not afraid that you will peck my eyes."
"You have to remember that without the Cui family, you won't be able to gain a foothold in the court in the future."
"Do you think you convinced me, no, you didn't."
"You're going to show me your use!"
"Luoyang, I'll let you go, you go to find Green Ear, and he will teach you how to do it."
