It turned out that this Deputy Lieutenant Cui, whose name was Cui Shuquan, was fine, but the name of his father Cui Guangyuan was known to everyone in Chang'an City, and the Boling Mansion in Qinren Lane was even more famous all over the world.

Cui Guangyuan's official position is Jingzhao Shaoyin, which is equivalent to the permanent deputy mayor of the capital in the 21st century!

Originally, the grade of Jingzhao Shaoyin's official position was the fourth grade, which was not small or big. If it is placed in a place, it is definitely a big official, but in Chang'an City, where princes and nobles gather, he can only be regarded as a middle-level bureaucrat.

However, Cui Guangyuan's reputation far exceeds his official rank! Especially in Qinrenfang Boling Mansion, if anyone dares to say that he has never heard of it, then he will live in vain!

It all started with the Bolingtri clan.

From the Han Dynasty to the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, China was a country dominated by the scholars and the gate lords! The standard of the imperial court in the past dynasties is to "pay attention to talent and learning", but in practice, it is the first to take the door valve first, and the emphasis is on the family background. This practice reached its peak in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and almost all the official positions of the imperial court were monopolized by famous families.

Under this system, the world has formed the four major sayings, some are Cui, Xie, Wang, Zheng, some are Cui, Lu, Wang, Xiao, and some others. No matter which way you say it, there is no Boling Cui clan in it!

During the Zhenguan period, Tang Taizong ordered Gao Shilian to compile the "Chronicles of the Shi Family", Gao Shilian was a sincere person, according to the level of the door valve in the eyes of the world at that time, the Boling Cui family was listed as the first in the world. This made Tang Taizong very angry, although Gao Shilian had to follow Tang Taizong's wishes, demote the Boling Cui clan to the third class, and list the Li royal family as the first class, but the status of the Boling Cui clan in the eyes of the corporal people in the world can be seen!

In fact, the prestige of the Bolingcui clan was not reduced by the fact that it was listed as the third class in the "Clan Chronicles" promulgated by the imperial court. In the minds of scholars, the Boling Cui clan is still the first family in the world, and in the end, even the imperial court has to compromise, there is the Tang generation, and the Boling Cui clan is the prime minister, as many as 12 people!

And Cui Guangyuan is from the Boling Cui family.

Of course, there are many children of the Boling Cui clan, and there are countless talented and famous people all over the world. Cui Guangyuan only wears the halo of the Boling Cui clan on his head, which is not enough to be famous in the world.

Boling Cui's fame in the world is certainly because of the glory earned by his ancestors, but a fundamental reason is that the Cui family has a long history of learning, and the poetry is endowed with its own family, taught within the clan, and passed down from generation to generation.

Therefore, most of the children of the Cui family are erudite people, just like Cui Yuan, who is also a child of the Cui family in Boling, with his solid family education, he rose to the top in one fell swoop, gradually promoted, and finally became Jing Zhaoyin, that is, the mayor of Chang'an, and became the most outstanding figure of the Cui family today.

However, although Cui Yuan's official position is higher than Cui Guangyuan, his reputation is far less than Cui Guangyuan's.

Cui Guangyuan's reputation is also because of his deep family education!

However, the family learning inherited by Cui Guangyuan is not a scripture poetry, but a broad technique!

Bao Bo, also known as Bao Pu, is actually a kind of gambling technique of rolling dice. The art of the Han Dynasty appeared in the Han Dynasty, and it was especially popular in the Two Jin Dynasty. The children of the famous family love to be rich, drinking, prostitution is the three major good things of the children of the two Jin Dynasty, the children of the Wang family have followed suit, not ashamed, but is synonymous with elegance and ease.

However, in the Sui and Tang dynasties, the style of the world changed, and the exaggerated style of the Jin Dynasty gradually subsided. The art of Bo was gradually despised by the world, and the famous family also strictly forbade their children to make Bo, and gradually, Bo Shu went from the Gaomen compound to the streets of the market, and became a scoundrel in the market.

The art of Bo Bo was originally one of the family studies of the Boling Cui family, and in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the good hands of Bo in the clan emerged in endlessly, and they continued to carry forward and develop, and the Bo art developed to the peak.

In the Tang Dynasty, the Bo was considered to be a low-class goods, and the children of the Cui family abandoned it like a shoe, and the Cui family's Bo technique gradually declined.

Only Cui Guangyuan's lineage is a disciple, but he has inherited the art of Bo and further carried it forward.

Cui Guangyuan's grandfather, Cui Jingsi, is a grandmaster-level master, who is as enthusiastic as his life, and never leaves his dice with him. When you walk on the street, as long as you see someone gambling in the neighborhood fence, no matter what kind of ninth-rate characters those gamblers are, you will immediately go in, call you brothers, and shout at you.

What's even more bizarre is that later, Cui Jingsi did the history of Fangzhou Thorn, sat on the Bajiao Bridge and walked on the street of Fangzhou, heard the shouting in the wine shop tea shop from afar, and regardless of his identity, jumped out of the sedan chair and rushed over to bet, the people of Fangzhou often saw that their Taishou was wearing a purple official uniform, hanging a fish bag from his waist, and a group of bare-chested market scoundrels, surrounded in the grass shed hook fence, Xuan fist sleeves, shouting five and drinking six, fighting for a red face and thick neck, this is a great spectacle in Fangzhou.

At first, everyone was surprised and inexplicable, but over time, the people were accustomed to it, if they didn't see Lord Thorn Shi gambling on the street, the people would have no bottom in their hearts.

That Cui Jingsi threw the dice, but he was upright, never oppressed people with officials, losing is losing, winning is winning, everything has been in hand. Of course, with his attainments in erudition, no one can win him, and if you want to make a thousand under his nose, don't even think about it! Cui Jingsi won the money, but he was also bold, never took the money home, so he found a tavern in the market and beckoned the gamblers to drink, and everyone was drunk.

It's strange to say, Fangzhou has a history of gambling assassination, but the order is orderly, there are no ruffians and hooligans fighting, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and they are peaceful.

The people of Fangzhou never called Cui Jingsi "adult", but called "Cui Ye", if someone called him "adult", he pulled down his face, but he didn't hear it.

In the future, the honorific title of "Cui Ye" was inherited by Cui Jinghe's ancestors and grandchildren for three generations, no matter how big an official he was, he was called "Cui Ye", and he must not be called "Adult".

Originally, with Cui Jingsi's style, it was almost impossible to be further promoted in the officialdom. If you make a history of thorns in this life, it will be the end. His descendants can only guard his mastery and gradually decline into a scoundrel in the market.

Where did you think that the gambling assassin Cui Jingsi actually stepped on shit luck!

After Tang Zhongzong Li Xian was deposed by Wu Zetian, he was exiled to Fangzhou. According to political rules, a deposed emperor is a water dog, it is difficult to save his life, where is there a day to come out! In fact, Li Xian at that time had indeed reached the Jedi where his fate hung by a thread. Therefore, the officials of Fangzhou avoided this unlucky former emperor, and even more, in order to show loyalty to Wu Zetian, they insulted Li Xian in every way.

Cui Jingsi, a gambling assassin, is bent on the great cause of Bobo, absent-minded about politics, and he has no extravagant hopes for promotion, he is completely a political fool. Others were afraid that Wu Zetian would doubt his loyalty, and he made things difficult for Li Xian in every possible way, beating the water dog. Only Cui Jingsi is the opposite, he always feels that although Li Xian is no longer the emperor, he is also a prince, since it is the prince who has arrived, there must be no less etiquette.

So, in addition to gambling, Cui Jingsi often came to Li Xian's house to send some clothes and utensils, of course, it was not a valuable good thing - Cui Jingsi's family was not rich, and even poor, he could only gamble, not know how to loot, and the money won from gambling was squandered by gamblers and never accumulated.

However, when Li Xian was in trouble, people were indifferent and the world was cold. At this time, even if Cui Jingsi sent a bowl of porridge, it was also a charcoal in the snow, so the worthless rice and flour clothes sent by Cui Jingsi were a hundred times more precious than the gold and silver treasures in Li Xian's eyes!

After Wu Zetian's death, Li Xianhongyun took the lead, and actually entered the Daming Palace again and sat on the throne of the emperor. It is good for a deposed emperor to be able to save his life, and he can ascend to the throne of God for the second time, from ancient times to the present, it is almost unique. At the beginning, those who deliberately made things difficult for Li Xian could only sigh that the sky was overturned.

Li Xian is also a person with a temperament, after becoming the emperor, he remembered the years of burning passion in Fangzhou, missed the old man, and sent someone to Fangzhou to find Cui Jingsi. This Cui Jingsi was also unlucky, he didn't wait for the day when Li Xian re-ascended the throne, and he had been dead for several years.

When Li Xian heard that Cui Jingsi was dead, the dragon's heart was so painful that he actually cried in the Daming Palace for three days, not thinking about tea and dinner, and getting thinner and thinner. But there are attendants around him to consol: Cui Jingsi is dead, his son should still be alive, and he can pin his remembrance of Cui Jingsi on his son!

Lee Hsien Loong Yan Dayue immediately ordered to find the son of Choi Kyung-hei! The deadline is ten days, send his son to the capital, if you can't find it, Fangzhou will come to see you from the assassin to the small official! With a holy decree, the Fangzhou officialdom was scared like a swarm of bees that had blown up the nest, and all the people mobilized, from the assassin to the officials, all of them went out, and the whole city searched in a carpet, and finally found Cui Wang, the son of Cui Jingsi, in a thatched hut by the city wall, from a group of gamblers who were in full swing.

After the death of Cui Jingsi, Cui Wang inherited his Lao Tzu's Bo skills, but this person is not talented, not proficient in learning, although he is also a master, but not a first-class master, besides, when he Lao Tzu was alive, he received a lot of apprentices in Fangzhou, all of whom are scoundrels in the market, among which the talented and intelligent people have obtained the true biography of Cui Jingsi, but they are more clever than Cui Wang. Cui Wang's skills are not as good as others, but he loves to be a doctor, and after a few years of hard work, he lost all his family property and became an unemployed vagrant, and his wife also ran away with others, leaving him alone to guard two thatched houses, but he did not change his original intention and gambled all day long.

On that day, Cui Wang was gambling with more than a dozen broken households, and suddenly saw the government brigade rushing into the grass shed, thinking that they were here to catch gambling, and fled over the wall in fright, but he fell down from the wall, broke a leg, grinned in pain, and before he could figure out what was going on, he was stripped off his tattered clothes, replaced with a brand new brocade clothes, and was carried straight onto the official ship, all the way to Chang'an.

When he arrived in Chang'an, Cui Wang was carried into a high-rise mansion compound, and there was a golden plaque hanging on the courtyard gate, on which was the gilded imperial pen of Emperor Li Xian - Boling Mansion!
