In his eyes, the key to manipulating the Juju Tournament lies in whether the families involved in the gambling business in Chang'an City are willing to let them get into this foot, and at this point, Cui Hao is not worried, after all, Li Ang is standing behind the emperor, those families have to give up some interests, and in the future, the family will go west to establish the country, and these families also want to get benefits from them, So all he's got to do is make the rigged game look flawless and make everything seem natural.

In the battle with Cui Hao during these days, Miss Zhuge also slowly figured out this man's character, in her eyes, Cui Hao is actually a person who values feelings, but he hides it well, and others can't see it. "You mean to let the Sima family give up more benefits?" After looking at Cui Hao, who came to find him, a trace of surprise flashed in Miss Zhuge 's eyes, you must know that in the high gate in Chang'an City, in addition to the families with a large number of troops in the army, such as the chief chief, the great Sima, the auxiliary prince and several branches of the royal family, the Sima family can be said to be the strongest family in Chang'an and the region among the remaining families, after all, the Sima family was already a great family in Hanoi in the old Han Dynasty, and their ancestor Sima Yi was the four British generals Sima Yi, Lu Xun, and Zhuge Liang during the Great Qin Western Expedition, The head of Pang Tong can be said to be the most balanced military and political power in the Great Qin family, but over the years, the power of the Sima clan in the army has not been as good as before, but has turned its energy to the chamber of commerce and the court, for them, they will never let go of all the businesses that can make money, and it is difficult for them to let go of the benefits they have made.

"The Sima family is the most prominent in the family, and they took the initiative to quit the cabinet a few years ago. It was so that the first emperor had no excuse to deal with them, and later in the face of my master's reshuffling of the underworld forces in Chang'an, they also made concessions, which shows that the Sima family understands their current position very well. Cui Hao looked at Miss Zhuge in front of him who was just staring at him but didn't speak, and couldn't help but have a little headache, to be honest, Miss Zhuge made him very uncomfortable with this attitude of not advancing or retreating, he would rather face the usual sharp-toothed Miss Zhuge at this time, rather than the quiet woman in front of him.

"For a family, the way to live and survive for a long time is not how powerful it is. It's about the balance between the family and the other families and the royal family, and for the Sima family, even if they give up their military strength, they are still very strong in the eyes of the world, so I think the Sima family also hopes to weaken their power by the hands of others, so that others can rest assured. Cui Hao looked at Miss Zhuge who was slightly moved, and did not continue.

"Very insightful. One sentence broke the way of survival of our family, and it seems that I still underestimate you. Miss Zhuge who had not spoken for a long time sighed softly, from the founding of the country to the present, whenever there is a strong family in Daqin, there will always be other families joining forces to suppress it, in the eyes of the world, this is a mutual tilt, but they don't know that this is just a big drama that has been discussed a long time ago. It was only after all parties had made a compromise that it was put into practice for the world to see.

"This is not a clever insight, the Great Qin has been established for more than 160 years, and no one has fallen from the Gaomen at the time of the founding of the country to now, at most it is just the ups and downs of the family. As long as you are a person who understands, you will think of it. Cui Hao looked at Miss Zhuge who was looking at him, and his heart couldn't help but move, but the words that came out of his mouth still carried some meanness, which was quite stinging.

Looking at Cui Hao, Miss Zhuge didn't care about the implicit meaning of what he said, she knew that it was just an instinct of this man to protect herself, just like when she faced other people, she was the same kind of person. "Then why did you choose our Zhuge family, you should know that as a descendant of the four heroes. The relationship between the four of us has always been good. Miss Zhuge asked her last question, she wanted to know how strong Cui Hao was in terms of wisdom, this man was by no means the kind of treacherous of a lone thief. What he showed was a real calculation of precision.

"Because there are enough excuses." Looking at Miss Zhuge , Cui Hao picked up the tea that was already cold in front of him, drank it and said, "Those who secretly manipulate the gambling stalls in Chang'an City can be said to be the leader of the Sima family, and your Zhuge family is just following the Sima family to fight the autumn wind." ”

Looking at Cui Hao, who was always speaking so politely, a smile suddenly appeared in Miss Zhuge 's eyes, if this man was not from a humble background, he was indeed her good match, but unfortunately the family would not agree to her marrying such a man.

"I think the Zhuge family is dissatisfied with such a status, and they make a request to the Sima family, such an excuse should be very reasonable." Putting down the teacup, Cui Hao quietly looked at Miss Zhuge , but found that there was something more in her eyes that he didn't understand.

"The two of us joined forces to put pressure on the Sima family, which can indeed make the Sima family make concessions and give up more benefits, but I don't know what about the benefits that come from this?" Although she has a trace of emotion for Cui Hao that she doesn't understand, Miss Zhuge is still the female wise man, putting the interests of the family first.

"In that case, Miss Zhuge shouldn't have asked at all." Looking at Miss Zhuge , Cui Hao shook his head and sighed, "Miss Zhuge deliberately befriended my housewife before, isn't it just to let my lord have a good impression of your family, and in the future, after my family becomes a prince of Great Qin in a foreign state, can I get strong help?" ”

"Caring about the small profits in front of you is not in line with the name of your family's wise man." Cui Hao sighed, and looked at the silent Miss Zhuge with his eyes.

"Who can say for sure what will happen in the future, but what if you fail? Miss Zhuge finally spoke, "Then isn't everything my family has paid now in vain, not to mention that the benefits of this gambling are not a small amount, once the Sima family gives up, then it is a rule, how can I not be tempted?" ”

Miss Zhuge said the last sentence with coquettishness, even if Cui Hao was like water, he couldn't help but be amazed by the style of this moment, but he was always the family black fox identified by Li Ang, but in the blink of an eye, he had already made up his mind, and sighed with a regretful tone, "Then Miss Zhuge shouldn't come to my family." There is nothing in this world

If you are reluctant to spend the money, why should you expect that it will be your daughter's temperament, too stingy. After sighing, Cui Hao's eyes fell on Miss Zhuge with a somewhat gloomy face and said, "If Miss can't be the master of this matter, then let's go back and ask the head and elders of your family, presumably they will make a decision." ”

Seeing Cui Hao's unfazed look, the gloomy look on Miss Zhuge suddenly disappeared. She just looked at the indifferent man in front of her and asked, "Are you so sure that the elders of my family will agree to your request?" ”

"It's not my request, it's our family's request." Cui Hao glanced at Miss Zhuge again, then lowered his head again, and his voice was calm, "Men always have to be more courageous than women, so that's why I came here." After saying this somewhat unclear words. Cui Hao stood up.

"Your family's request for me agreed." Looking at Cui Hao, who was about to leave, Miss Zhuge frowned suddenly, she called out to Cui Hao and said with a smile.

Looking at Miss Zhuge with a lovely smile on her face, Cui Hao hesitated for a moment, and then said, "We only need the Sima family's hands to make forty percent of the profits, if you have the ability, you can scrape it out from the Sima family's hands." "Finished. He glanced at the screen behind Miss Zhuge , and then didn't say anything anymore and strode away.

After Cui Hao left, an old sigh sounded on the screen behind Miss Zhuge . Then an old man of about fifty years of age slowly walked out, the old man was dressed in a white robe, and his demeanor was dashing, so that people could tell at a glance that he was young and a romantic figure. Looking at his daughter looking at the direction of Cui Hao's departure, with a thoughtful look, Zhuge Xuan couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, "The man in this world who can make my daughter feel tempted has finally appeared." Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh.

—

Hearing the soft sigh of her father behind her, Miss Zhuge came back to her senses, and she turned around and stood up. looked at the old father who walked out and said, "Daddy, my daughter made her own decision just now. At his request, he also asked his father to punish him, if his father felt that it was inappropriate, his daughter would send someone to tell him, anyway, his daughter was a daughter's family, and it was just a verbal agreement, so it didn't hurt to cheat, and he couldn't say that my family was dishonest with him. ”

Looking at his daughter's smiling face, Zhuge Xuan couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Our Zhuge family is a famous family in Daqin, how can we be untrustworthy, since you promised others, you have to do things well." Looking at his daughter, Zhuge Xuan sat down, his eyes pierced his daughter's face like a sharp sword, and sighed, "The woman is not left, and the ancients did not deceive me!" ”

In fact, with the family style of the Zhuge family, even if Miss Zhuge didn't say those words, her father would agree to Cui Hao's conditions, after all, as Cui Hao said, she was reluctant to spend the money, so she didn't want to expect anything, but it was a pity that Miss Zhuge forgot these things in a state of confusion, so that her father could see her thoughts and say that sigh.

Hearing her father's sigh, Miss Zhuge changed her face, but soon she made up her mind, and the smile on her face disappeared, she sat down beside her father, bowed her head and asked, "What does my father think of him?" The voice was a little resolute.

"He has the means, he has the wisdom and strategy, he is a black-hearted fox, if he is placed in the time of Emperor Taizu, I am afraid that he will be a character like 'Poison Jia Xu'." Zhuge Xuan thought of the conversation between Cui Hao and his daughter, and said in a deep voice, then he looked at his daughter's lowered face, but smiled, "But it is indeed worthy of my daughter." ”

Listening to her father's words, Miss Zhuge raised her head, but looked at her father with some surprise. Looking at the expression on his daughter's face, the smile on Zhuge Xuan's face was even heavier, "But he is not an ordinary man, if you don't have some means, I'm afraid you will suffer in the future." ”

"Don't worry about daddy, my daughter has her own way to subdue this black-hearted fox." Seeing that her father's words revealed the meaning of being willing to let her choose a husband, Miss Zhuge laughed happily, and then said something to her father, and then walked briskly.

After Miss Zhuge left, another person walked out from behind the screen, and that person's appearance was very imaginary to Miss Zhuge Lord's father, but he was a lot younger, I saw him walk to Zhuge Xuan's side and asked, "Brother, haven't you already set a marriage for Yue'er, what's wrong?" ”

Looking at the puzzled brother, Zhuge Xuan chuckled and said, "In this world, which father doesn't want his daughter to marry a wishful man, and I am no exception, compared to this Cui Hao, the kid of the Wei family is just a rotten wood that can't be built!" ”

"Big brother is going to repent of his marriage?" Zhuge Dao saw that his brother liked the scheming person very much when he spoke, and couldn't help but be taken aback and said, you must know that his eldest brother has always spoken the word 'letter' the most, and insisted on the family style of the Zhuge family, which is extremely strict.

"It's not me who regrets the marriage, it's Yue'er herself, in this case, the Wei family has nothing to say." glanced at his brother, but Zhuge Xuan said lightly, but the implied meaning of his words made his brother's heart sink.

"Big brother, are you going to drive Yue'er out of the house in the future and let her go to Haixi with them?" Zhuge Dao didn't expect his brother to be so willing to put such a heavy stake on that Li Ang.

"You know Yue'er's temperament, as long as you fall into it, you will never look back." Zhuge Xuan's voice was still calm, but his eyes were a little distant, "People's hearts are long, that young man named Cui Hao, although he is scheming, but he is a person of great affection, Yue'er sacrificed for him so much, I think he will not treat Yue'er badly." ”

"Big brother, you..." Looking at Mo Ran's brother, Zhuge Dao didn't know what to say, he knew that his brother was doing this just for the sake of the entire Zhuge family, and he was always inferior to his brother.

"Don't tell Yue'er about this, I'd rather she hate me for the rest of my life in the future." Glancing at the brother who bowed his head and was silent, Zhuge Xuan stood up.

"Big brother." Zhuge Dao shouted, but his brother had already walked back to the screen, and only left a sentence, "Prepare the car to go to Sima Mansion." As if he had never been before, after standing for a while, Zhuge Dao sighed deeply and walked out of the hall.
