Chapter 399: Asking to See
Asking to see, not to mention the personal relationship between Yang Chong and the Cui family's uncle and nephew, just because Yang Chong is the boss behind the scenes of the Hexi Commercial Bank, Cui Hongsu is the big shopkeeper of Yang Chong's front desk, and he is also the official of the Yang Mansion who goes in and out casually, how can I say these two words, it is obvious that I came for Cui Yao's magical team. Yang Chong's face was a little unpleasant, and Fang Yanzao smiled reluctantly: "Boss, Fourth Master Cui is here to reveal the mystery." β
Yang Chong nodded and motioned for Su Dingfang to invite the two of them in, and Cui Hongsu knelt down when he saw Yang Chong and said, "Please forgive the chief." β
Cui Chuzhi also looked embarrassed, but as the sister-in-law of the Cui family, he couldn't have any superfluous expressions; Everyone's hearts sank, although Cui Hongsu was the concubine of the Cui family and claimed to be Yang Chong's subordinate, but Yang Chong had always regarded him as an elder, and he had never knelt before or after, what a big deal it should be. Yang Chong immediately said, "Fourth Master, get up, what is this for." β
But Yang Chong didn't go over to support Cui Hongsu, it was Zhang Guolao, who appeared in the house quietly, and helped Cui Hongsu up; Cui Chu took a step forward and said stubbornly: "Clan sister Cui Yao sent news, she came with the will of the Son of Heaven this time, the Son of Heaven has given her a marriage, and she will be married to the governor, and this time she will come to Shangxian to complete the marriage." β
The room was silent, and there was not a single sound. Sure enough, he is not afraid of old age, it is good if he can use it, the last time he gave Yang Chong a marriage, he asked Yang Chong to erect a large number of enemies and stayed in Hexi for two years; This marriage, Yang Guang's handwriting is even greater, Cui Yao was the princess of Yang Zhao, the prince of Yuande, the daughter of the Cui family, and even the woman who called her aunt when the king and the king of Yue saw it.
But now the world is in turmoil, Yang Chong is one of the most powerful forces at present, even if Yang Guang is still the emperor, Cui Yao's status is noble, and he should say hello first and ask Yang Chong if he is willing. After the marriage, the marriage is ready to be completed, which is equivalent to a slap in the face where Yang Chong is placed; The evil intentions of Yang Guang, the Son of Heaven, are clearly visible, but how can the Cui family and Cui Yao agree? Unless the Cui family wants to show their status to the world through this marriage.
Yang Chong stared at Cui and asked, "In Brother Cui's view, how should this matter be handled?" β
Yang Chong has not changed his name until this moment, indicating that there is still a turning point; Cui Zhizhi Shili explained: "The clan sister sent a message that although she had only met with the chief manager a few times in a hurry, she had admired the chief manager for a long time, so she was unwilling to give up this opportunity, and in troubled times, she just wanted to have a place to live, hoping that the chief manager would have mercy. β
In fact, Yang Chong and Cui Yao still have some stories that circulate outside, when they were in Jinmatang, Cui Yao once bought a piece of jade for Yang Chong, and Yang Chong also accepted it; Li Baiyao testified that Cui Hongdu said that if Cui Yao couldn't get married, he would marry Yang Chong. But Cui Yao is very smart, she is not far-fetched, she just appears as a weak woman, and asks her brother Cui to convey it directly.
Yang Chong didn't speak, he sat there, casually tapping his fingers lightly on the tabletop, those who were familiar with Yang Chong knew that this was a precursor to Yang Chong's decision to make. After half the incense burnt time, Yang Chong finally stopped his small movements, raised his head and said, "Brother Cui, you know, I'm not used to living with people who don't have feelings. β
"Yang Chong." Jiang Duo hurriedly interrupted Yang Chong's words. Jiang Duo knew Yang Chong's thoughts about his sister, but the Cui family was not an ordinary family, and Yang Chong's refusal would cause a series of reactions, fall into the trap designed by Yang Guang, and add countless troubles to the Hexi Army; Jiang Duo, like other contemporaries, did not think that Yang Chong's group of wives and concubines was a problem, and it was even more common for him to marry for power, after all, for men, career success was more important.
Yang Chong was speechless, and Yuan Wei said in a timely manner: "Chief, this matter is not urgent, the convoy has not crossed the Yellow River yet, you can think about it again." Cui Shilang, Ling Mei's convoy has as many as 1,000 people and 60 vehicles, it won't be a dowry, right? β
Yang Chong almost slapped his head, just thinking about emotional things, forgetting that there should be articles, Yuanwei is really old and spicy, and he is used to all kinds of tricks; Cui Chuzhi smiled bitterly: "Of course not, the servants of the Cui family only talked about the marriage contract, but Zhuge Quan arrived and said that he was an attachΓ© of the imperial court envoy this time." β
Yang Chong instantly returned to normalcy and instructed Su Dingfang: "Go and invite Lord Zhuge in." β
Zhuge Quan is still a jade tree in the wind, the sun in the South China Sea does not seem to have an effect on him, he has not tanned at all, he is nearly forty years old and does not even have a single white hair, his eyes are wise and smart, when he saw Yang Chong, he smiled and said: "See Manager Yang, congratulations to Manager Yang." β
Yang Chong smiled bitterly: "Why don't you want to be happy, what are you doing when you come back?" β
Zhuge Quan stood up straight and said: "I was found by the Son of Heaven, this time I and my eldest brother Zhuge Jia will accompany Guan Wang Yang Gongren to Hexi to announce the decree, appointing you as the Duke of Yueguo, the right servant of Shangshu, and the marshal of the Northwest Road March; Guan Wang Yang Gongren will replace Wei Xuan and preside over the affairs of Guanzhong. β
Wei Zheng asked, "Lord Zhuge can know the situation in Guanzhong?" β
"Clear." Zhuge Quan naturally understood that Li Yuan was approaching Chang'an, and if there was no external force, it was only a matter of time before Chang'an was captured, and with Yang Chong's current territory, Yang Guang did not have enough chips; Zhuge Quan smiled and said: "Li Yuan's conquest of Chang'an is only a matter of one or two months, and the little kid who is acting for the king is unwilling to leave, it can be said that if Yang Gongren is not there, Qu Tutong and the others will definitely defect to you in the end, and the Hexi army will destroy Xue Ju, and they can directly fight to Chang'an." β
This was exactly Yang Chong's original plan, and Wei Zheng said, "Since Lord Zhuge knows, what is the point of this trip. β
Zhuge Quan smiled and said: "No wonder Yang Chong quickly appointed you as the county guard as soon as he saw you, Li Mi and Yuan Baobao lost a talent." Yang Chong seems to have lost the opportunity to enter Chang'an, but the location of Taiyuan is better than Chang'an, and when Liu Wuzhou captures Taiyuan, you can see all of Li Yuan's arrangements, it is better than going to Chang'an to be plotted every day. β
Jiang Duo and Fang Yanzao nodded, Yang Chong commented on the world's famous generals, Zhuge Quan is a figure no less than Li Jing and Li Shimin, and his vision is really not shallow. Yang Chong frowned and said, "Zhuge Quan, should you be in Jiangdu now, help the Holy Son of Heaven to make suggestions, use 100,000 elite soldiers to revive the dynasty, and escort Yang Gongren, is it so important?" β
Zhuge Quan smiled disapprethoughtly and said: "Jiangdu is the same as Chang'an, one person is in the layout, there is no strength in his hands, he can't do anything except wait for death, I only brought a thousand people back from the East China Sea, and I can't do that kind of big thing." β
Jiang Duo asked curiously: "What big things can you do with Yang Gongren in Longyou?" β
"It's not Longyou, it's Hexi." Zhuge Quan looked back at Yang Chong and said, "The Son of Heaven arranged for me to be the head of the Marshal's Mansion on the Northwest Road, and Yu Juluo is the Sima of the Marshal's Mansion. β
