Chapter 43 Only now do I know that I was wrong
Coming to Datang to be a good person for the first time, Luo Yan felt very refreshed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Seeing that Cui Ying and the others had woken up from their intoxication, Luo Yan pointed to Cui Cong, who had fallen asleep peacefully, and motioned for a few people to be quieter. Nodding and pointing not far away, Cui Ying took the lead in walking over. Later, Luo Yan and Lu Ling, Cui Zheng, and they also followed Cui Ying together.
Walking to a place that was already far away from Cui Cong, a few people sat down.
"Since my cousin has already told Brother Luo his story, it doesn't matter if Ying says something off topic at this time. Ever since he learned that the girl was married, his cousin didn't think about it. If it weren't for the uncle's order to forcibly pour some food, I'm afraid that my cousin would have been out of shape by now. Cui Ying sighed.
Lu Ling said something cold at this time: "Your cousin, don't you know that you are wrong until now?" At the beginning, I cried and shouted that I wanted to marry someone else's girl to make a big house, and I said why don't you have a long brain. I am the children of the family, can I do the big thing of marriage? If you really want to live for a lifetime, you have to slowly figure it out. ”
Although these words were a bit ruinous to the atmosphere, the Cui Ying brothers did not refute anything.
The five surnames and seven hopes can reach today's heyday, in addition to the endless talents, marriage with other wealthy families is also an important means. Now in the middle of the five surnames and seven hopes, it may be that the Taiyuan Wang family is not deep, and it has not been long since he entered the ranks of wealthy families, so the degree of marriage is lower. The kinship of the other six families is called a complicated one.
Why can Lu Ling and Cui Ying and their brothers play together? This like-mindedness is one thing, and the most important thing is that the two of them are related. Cui Ying's mother is Lu Ling's aunt, so Lu Ling was so polite when he spoke just now.
And they are only a small example of these marriages.
Interests are involved and blood is entangled, so these families help each other and compete with each other, so their vitality has always been so strong.
After pondering for a while, Cui Ying smiled bitterly and said slowly: "You, if you speak so straight, aren't you afraid of making people sad?" ”
Lu Ling looked indifferent: "Anyway, you know the situation, I waited until I was at this age, how many times did my family say it." My aunt said that even my grandfather can't speak for the position of my big house, and it depends on what the clan elders mean. However, if there is a woman you like, you can repair the plank road and darken the cang. I don't believe your family hasn't said this. ”
didn't wait for Cui Ying to answer, Cui Zheng continued to answer: "I definitely said it, I used to mention it occasionally, since I got rid of Cui Cong's cousin, my grandfather called me over twice in three days to mention my life, and I feel that I have not been so diligent in investigating my knowledge before." ”
Several people laughed when they heard Cui Zheng's answer.
However, Cui Cong's matter is also talked about here, and the next time, the four of them still sit and look at the peach blossoms, and by the way, talk about some things that have happened recently.
With Liu Heimin defeated, Shandong Xu Yuanlang killed Liu Shiche and began to stir up trouble in Shandong. At this time, coupled with Liu Heimin's collusion with the Turks to harass the border, and Du Fuwei's troops in the Jianghuai area, the overall military situation in the Tang Dynasty is still very grim. Cui Ying, the children of the family, were naturally well-informed, and they told Luo Yan a lot about the recent battle situation during the conversation.
But the general trend is in me, so it's very easy to talk to a few people.
After talking about Cui Cong waking up, several people interrupted the conversation when they heard the voice, got up and walked over to Cui Cong.
It seems that Luo Yan was a good person, and he just let him sleep well. After waking up, Cui Cong continued to look depressed just now. Luo Yan is really helpless now, okay, boy, I can only help you get here. Luo Yan had to think so in his heart.
On the way down the mountain, looking at Cui Cong, who was almost being helped to move down step by step, Luo Yan read faintly:
"Now I said that I was wrong at the time, and my heart was miserable. Red tears are secretly drooping, and his eyes are full of spring breeze.
Knowing this, there was no plan later, and he forced the happy period. A farewell is like this, and the peach blossom moon is in the west. ”
Obviously, when Luo Yan said this, he was alluding to Cui Cong's matter, and it could be regarded as his own feelings.
However, although Luo Yannian's words gave Cui Cong a spirit in his eyes, this spirit was soon replaced by tears. Luo Yan really has no tricks now, so he can only let him cry like this.
On the way back, there was nothing to say, and when the carriage stopped at the gate of the Lu Mansion, Luo Yan felt that he was finally relieved. In one carriage, a man wept silently all the way, and then the others didn't say anything, it was too depressing.
It was not too late, Luo Yan went back to the room to change his clothes, and went to the study to find Lu Deming. But on the way, I met the little girl Ying'er who came to find him.
"Luo Yan, I heard that you went out to play today, and you didn't take me with you, I'm really angry." When she saw Luo Yan, the little girl pouted and looked very angry.
Knowing that this was deliberately done for himself, Luo Yan had no choice but to say quite cooperatively: "Oh, isn't there someone else here today." I'll definitely take you out next time, okay. You go back first, and I'll go to the study to find you. ”
Although she got Luo Yan's promise, the little girl was not satisfied: "No, you still have to tell me about what fun you met today." Don't say it, I won't let you go. ”
In desperation, Luo Yan had no choice but to resort to a killing move: "Be good, obedient, I will go to Dongshi tomorrow to buy you something delicious." ”
Ying'er's eyes lit up when she heard this. Since the last time she went out with Luo Yan, she has missed the delicious food outside. Although there are more refined snacks in my house than those made outside, I just can't eat that taste. She also wanted to sneak out and buy it herself, but after trying several times, she was blocked by the porter. wanted to go out openly, but Lu Fuzi didn't allow it. That's why it tickles her heart.
Luo Yan promised to buy her delicious food, and promised her to go out for a walk, which made a lot of money.
After coaxing the little girl away, Luo Yan could finally go to Lu Deming safely.
Seeing Lu Deming, Luo Yan didn't say anything about Cui Cong, but Cui Ying told Lu Deming about the war in Shandong.
Obviously, as a bachelor of the Literature Museum, Lu Deming must have known these news for a long time.
At that moment, Lu Deming said: "I know everything on the front line, but the situation has basically not changed, it just takes some time." You've been studying with peace of mind some time ago, so I didn't tell you these things. For you now, learning is the most important thing. ”
Luo Yan nodded. Anyway, his current official position can't interfere in military affairs at all, so he just listens to the war.
After a brief chat, Lu Deming began to continue teaching.
Not to mention the master and apprentice in the study.
The four of Cui Ying returned to the mansion, and Cui Cong finally cried until he fell asleep.
arranged for Cui Cong to fall asleep, and the remaining three people also went to the study to talk about Luo Yan.
"Cousin, tell me what you think of Luo Yan now." Cui Ying said to Lu Ling.
"This man is young and talented, and this poem seems to come easily. And it's quite chivalrous, just seeing two sides makes people feel that they can have a deep friendship. Lu Ling directly expressed his views and expressed his attitude.
Cui Ying turned his gaze to Cui Zheng again.
Knowing that it was time to speak, Cui Zheng also expressed his opinion: "Luo Yan is a little different from some of the scholars I have seen before. I think that those poor scholars, after knowing the identity of our children from the family, either regard us as enemies, or come up to stammer. I waited until today to invite him, and when I saw his expression, he didn't seem particularly happy. Such a person who is neither humble nor arrogant is really rare. ”
Cui Ying nodded: "Well, that's right." He can do this, presumably because of the assistant teacher and the Qin Wangfu standing behind him. However, now that the situation has stabilized, the battle between the crown prince and the king of Qin has become more and more intense. The Zheng family in Xingyang has already made its position clear, and Zheng Shanguo has become the prince's left concubine. It's just that I don't know if Qinghe's fellow sect is involved. ”
"It's hard to say. The crown prince has always relied on us and other families, but under King Qin's hands, it seems that he is more from a poor family. I'm afraid that in the end, we will stand on the opposite side. Cui Zheng said.
"I don't want to think about it, I don't want to think about it, I think about it in vain. Who the family wants to support is not up to me and other juniors. Besides, a few of us are not the most famous ones of the younger generation, and even if we have a deep friendship with Luo Yan, no one will talk about this. Lu Ling said something very straightforward.
Cui Ying also smiled when he heard it, yes, whether he or Cui Zheng or Lu Ling, he is neither a long house nor a son-in-law. Although he is valued by the family because of his talent, compared to the people who are the sons of the long house, he is not enough to see a few of them.
"yes. What's more, my family has never put all our eggs in the same basket, otherwise how could it last so long. The family can support whoever they want, and no matter who wins, it will be indispensable for me to wait for a few people to eat anyway. The disaster of the pond fish will not lead to the disaster of life and death. Cui Zheng is even more direct, and he has always made the political position of the family clear. But now it's just the three of them, and they're not afraid of being listened to.
"Well, then, on this matter, cousin, you and I will each write a letter to the clan. Say hello in advance, and then you won't be afraid that some people will deliberately embarrass you and me, and at the same time, you can also test the family's position. Speaking of which, when I arrived in Chang'an City, my life was not as easy as at home. You have to be careful in everything you say and do, and it's really a little unaccustomed. Cui Ying finally made a decision.
After discussion, the three of them decided to befriend Luo Yan. People like this who are righteous and talented, they don't want to give up easily because of their political stance.
Lu Ling nodded in agreement, and the three of them went back to rest.
