Xiahou Ba had just gotten up, and before he could freshen up, he learned from Xiahou Bupo that Lu Valve had come to Xiahou Fang and quit the marriage in public.

was so angry that Xiahou Ba jumped like thunder, kicked over the basin, and cursed in the bedroom for a long time, only then did he have a gloomy face and ordered his subordinates to fetch water again to groom and dress themselves.

When Zhu Xiuyi heard the news, she saw that the old lady had already put on a purple court dress, and she was ready to enter the palace to face the saint.

"What are you going to do, my lord?" Zhu Xiuyi hurriedly waved his hand to signal, and the subordinates holding the Jinxian crown went out first.

"Go see Huangfu Yu!" Xiahou Ba roared angrily: "Since his surname Lu doesn't know how to lift, what scruples does the old man have?" I'm going to Changle Palace, and let Huangfu Yu take the surname Lu down from the emperor's list, and never admit him! Since you can't get your luck back, it's the same if you ruin your luck! ”

"Taishi think twice......" Zhu Xiuyi shook her head again and again, with a disapproving posture.

"What's there to think again? If he dared to withdraw from his husband's marriage, he should have known that there would be such consequences! Xiahou Ba roared with a red face and a thick neck: "I want to see if he has the courage to carry it for him!" ”

"Taishi, it is certainly angry to do this, but you are killing a thousand enemies and losing three thousand! This loss-making business can't be done! Zhu Xiuyi hurriedly persuaded: "Lu Yun is Lu Yun, and Lu Valve is Lu Valve, so they can't be mixed up." If we do this, we will certainly punish Lu Yun, but we will also completely form a mortal enmity with Lu Yun! ”

"It's already a feud! Could it be that Lao Tzu is still afraid that he will not succeed? Xiahou Ba snorted disapprovingly.

"What about Cui Valve? Cui Yan said that they would resolutely not withdraw from the marriage. Now that Lu Yun has chosen Cui Valve, no matter what he thinks in his heart, he will definitely be protected this time. Zhu Xiuyi said bitterly: "The student just heard that Du Hui went to Shangshu Province early in the morning, and it is estimated that the Ministry of Rites is already rushing to make the imperial list at this time." Huangfu Yu is obviously throwing the problem to Cui Yan, I'm afraid he is waiting for the lord to settle accounts with him! ”

"Hmm......" Xiahou Ba looked suffocated, twisted his beard to suppress his anger, and forced himself to think. You say, why would Cui Yan rather offend the old man than marry this family? Could it be that he ......"

Xiahou Ba thought of a possibility, and was so shocked that his anger disappeared completely, and it was replaced by a thick suspicion. "What do you have to do with Huangfu Yu?"

"That's exactly what worries students." Zhu Xiuyi nodded slightly and said: "No matter what the truth is, we shouldn't anger Cui Valve now and let Huangfu Yu benefit from the fisherman." After all, Cui Valve is not comparable to land valve. ”

"Alas......" Xiahou Ba let out a sullen breath, of course he knew the importance of Cui Valve. Not only did all his decision-making orders rely on Cui Yan's order to be implemented. Moreover, half of the assassins in the whole world are the children of Cui Valve, and there are as many as one-third of the county guards. It can be said that the world is governed by the surname Cui, and if he wants to achieve great things steadily, he can't do without the support of Cui Valve.

"Taishi wants to get angry, and there is a way. There is no need to use such a big hand that outweighs the losses. Seeing that Xiahou Ba was gradually persuaded, Zhu Xiuyi's tone also slowed down. It is better to distinguish between Lu Xin, Lu Yun and Lu Feng and Lu Valve, and only deal with those two fathers and sons, there are all kinds of small means, which is enough for them to recover. ”

"Humph! Is it just cheap that kid? Xiahou Ba rationally agreed with Zhu Xiuyi's statement, but this tone made him grit his teeth more and more.

"How so? What if he was rated? Isn't it up to the Chinese book to have the final say? Zhu Xiuyi smiled coldly and said: "The Taishi will find an excuse to put him in the cabinet, and within a year or two, his holy product will become a waste product." ”

"One or two years is too long, the old man doesn't want to wait!" Xiahou Ba said indignantly.

"Then deal with Lu Xin first," Zhu Xiuyi said lightly: "Lu Yun is freshly baked after all, and it is too eye-catching to attack him." But Lu Xin, the yellow flower of tomorrow, is the person mentioned by the Taishi, how do you want to send him, who dares to say a word of nonsense? ”

"Hmm." Xiahou Ba finally felt more comfortable in his heart, and suddenly remembered an annoying matter, and couldn't help but smile cruelly: "The old man will arrange a good errand for him tomorrow!" ”

。

Shangshu Provincial Yamen.

When Cui Yan went out in the morning, he got a report from Deacon Guanfeng, saying that Lu Xin and Lu Xiu were waiting at the gate of Xiahoufang before dawn. As soon as the door opened, Xiahou was blocked without injury, and the marriage was withdrawn in public.

This really made Cui Yan both surprised and headached, and of course, a little bit of joy. After all, for the sake of his granddaughter, they would rather offend Xiahou Ba, and let Xiahou not hurt the carriage. This shows that his granddaughter and Cui Valve still have a lot of weight in each other's hearts......

When he arrived at Shangshutai and saw that the old eunuch Du Hui was already waiting there, there was only a headache left.

"My husband is here to send the emperor's list, right?" Cui Yan couldn't help but look at Du Hui with tears and laughter.

"I also want to ask Lao Lingjun for a reward." Du Hui smiled and joked: "Our family has seen the emperor's list, and your future grandson-in-law was appointed by His Majesty as the first holy product since the founding of the Great Xuan." ”

"Oh, hehe...... Cui Yan smiled dryly and grabbed Du Hui's arm and said, "Your old Du Shao came with me to do this, Your Majesty is roasting me on the fire, don't you know?" ”

"Alas, there are gains and losses, I believe that Ling Jun has already made plans." Du Hui was not easy to get along with, and said with a smile on his face: "Otherwise, I wouldn't have sent someone to Lu Valve yesterday to spread that word." ”

"Hehe, hehe......" Cui Yan is dumb and eats coptis, and he can't say if he is bitter. How did he expect that Xiahou Ba would propose marriage to him for a while? How could he have expected that his granddaughter would have that kind of bad relationship with Lu Yun?

It's really lucky, and it's the first thing to memorize. Cui Yan could only swallow his teeth in his stomach, and said with a smile: "Come on, let the people below do it, let's drink tea inside." ”

。

Cui Yan handed over the affairs of the imperial list to the Ministry of Rites, and he and Du Hui lit incense and sipped tea in the duty room, chatting with each other.

Du Hui looked at the sky, it was almost noon, but he still didn't see the officials of the Ministry of Rites come back to restore his life. He understood very well in his heart that this was Cui Yan delaying time, wanting to see if the old lady had any moves.

Du Hui also had no bottom in his heart, if Xiahou Ba really stopped the emperor regardless of his face, no one could do anything about him.

After suffering until noon, Cui Yan knew that Xiahouba would not move immediately, so he nodded slightly towards Cui Pingzhi, who was standing aside.

Cui Pingzhi went out under the pretext, and after a while, Wei Qing, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, held a golden imperial list and walked into the Shangshu Ling duty room with a solemn expression.

"Qi Yu Linggong, Du Gonggong, the production of the imperial list is complete, can it be posted?"

"Yes." Cui Yan bowed slightly.

"Yes!" Wei Qing is a person who guards the valve, and it has nothing to do with him, so he naturally obeys orders.

"Then our family will go back to their lives." Du Yan breathed a long sigh of relief, smiled at Cui Yan and said, "Thank you Ling Gong for your good tea." ”
