As soon as Li Su's words came out, not only did Mrs. Cheng feel very surprised, but even Cheng Yanjin, who was pretending to drink tea, raised his head and stared at him up and down with a pair of big copper bell-like eyes, as if it was the first time he met Li Su, Cheng Huailiang and his father's reaction were almost exactly the same as Cui Yu's face turned pale, and then the shame on his face was great, and it seemed that he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

In the emotional entanglement with Cui Mengxue, in fact, Li Su is the one who takes the initiative, he can force the Lu family to withdraw from the marriage first, and then wait for the Cui family to marry Mengxue to himself, because at that time, except for him, no one in the world dares to marry Cui Mengxue, after all, everyone knows that this is the woman that Li Su, the king of Qi, took back with great effort, who dares to rob a woman with him so blindly?

It's just that Mrs. Cheng calculated that Li Su is a person who is in love, firstly, it is Mengxue whom he owes, and secondly, there is the relationship between Cheng Fu and Cui Yu, which makes it even more impossible for Li Su to do ruthless things, so Mrs. Cheng took the initiative and proposed to exchange Cui Mengxue for Li Su, so that Li Su could fully support Cui Yu to seize the patriarch of the Cui clan in Qinghe, but Li Su's answer was really unexpected by them.

It's just that before Mrs. Cheng and the others could react, they saw Li Su speak again: "My acquaintance with Mengxue originated from a misunderstanding, but because of me, it ruined her marriage, so I have the responsibility to give her a happy marriage, so that she will like me willingly, I feel that it is a kind of happiness to be by my side!" ”

When Li Su said this, he raised his head and glanced at Mrs. Cheng again, and then said: "So I attach great importance to my marriage with Mengxue, and I don't want this marriage to be dyed with a trace of transaction." So for Mrs. Cheng, your proposal. It is very difficult for Li Su to agree, but if you believe me, I can make a promise to you here, as long as Brother Cui follows me, then his achievements in the future will definitely not be comparable to a small Qinghe Cui clan! ”

Although Li Su's words were full of confidence, and everyone present also believed in his ability. However, his guarantee is really amazing, Qinghe Cui's family, as one of the five surnames and seven wangs, is almost second only to the Boling Cui clan and the Zhaojun Li clan. It ranks third among the clans, and this is because of internal divisions, otherwise its strength is not as good as that of the Boling Cui clan. But it is also similar to the Zhao County Li family.

But such a huge big family was added by Li Su as a 'small' decoration, so that when they heard Mrs. Cheng's ears, Li Su's self-confidence had almost turned into a kind of arrogance, which made them wonder if Li Su was bragging?

Looking at the suspicious expressions of Mrs. Cheng and the others, Li Su was not in a hurry, turned around and suddenly saluted Cheng Yanjin and said, "Uncle Cheng, you should know about Uncle Qin's promise to go to the military academy to teach some time ago, right?" ”

Cheng Yanjin also tore off his disguise at this time, and his two big eyes flashed with a shrewd look. Carefully analyze the truth and falsehood of Li Su's words. Now he was interrupted by Li Su, and said angrily at the moment: "Nonsense, Brother Qin and I are like brothers, I naturally know about him, and I have heard about it." Did you convince him to go out of the mountains to teach despite his illness? ”

"Hehe, Uncle Cheng and Uncle Qin have really been brothers for decades, and they haven't hidden anything from you!" Li Su blinked his eyes and smiled, as soon as he looked like this, Cheng Huailiang next to Cheng Yanjin felt a little chilled, he was too familiar with Li Su. As long as the other party has this expression, it must be doing something crooked! As for Mrs. Cheng and Cui Yu, they don't understand what Li Su is asking for? Therefore, they both stared at the two curiously.

Cheng Yanjin heard Li Su's compliment, and felt proud in his heart, after all, he and Qin Qiong were brothers who were born and died, from the friendship set in Wagangzhai back then, until they later supported the Tang Dynasty together, it can almost be said that they share life and death, so when they heard Li Su praise their friendship, they couldn't help but feel proud in their hearts. …,

"Uncle Cheng, do you know that the little nephew promised Uncle Qin a condition in order to persuade him to go out of the mountain?" Before Cheng Yanjin was proud, Li Yu suddenly splashed cold water, and Cheng Yanjin was speechless when asked, because he didn't know that there was such a thing. And Cheng Huailiang next to him patted his head, he had long expected that Li Su would have such a move.

"Brother Qin even put forward a condition? What is it? Cheng Yanjin asked impatiently, Qin Qiong didn't tell him about this matter at all, so it can be seen that it must be an extremely secret and extremely important matter.

"Hehe, it's actually nothing, it's just that Old General Qin asked the kid to promise that when Brother Huaiyu graduates from the military academy, he will take him with him and give their Qin family a chance to develop again!" Li Su had a smile on his face, and his tone was extremely calm.

Hearing Li Su's words, Cheng Biting Jin and his wife were solemn, Qin Qiong's personality was clear to them and their husbands and wives, and they also knew that although Qin Qiong was famous for his bravery, he was thoughtful, especially his vision of seeing people and things, which was extremely accurate, and he saw that Wang Shichong had no hope of winning the world, so he took Cheng Biting Jin and others to take refuge under the Tang Dynasty, which was still relatively weak at that time, and when Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng were competing for the throne, it was also Qin Qiong who reminded him that he resolutely followed Li Shimin, and finally achieved his current careerBecause of this, Cheng Yanjin has always been very convinced of Qin Qiong's judgment.

Qin Qiong's health has always been bad, but now he is forced to teach at the military academy, and the quid pro quo is for Qin Huaiyu to follow Li Su in the future. With Cheng Bitingjin's understanding of Qin Qiong, the other party would never make such a decision for no reason, and Li Yu told this matter today, obviously to make them believe that following him was more worthy than letting Cui Yu compete for the position of patriarch.

"Uncle, aunt! Don't embarrass Rokuro anymore, and he's right, Mengxue is my own sister, if I use her as a bargaining chip, how is it different from a beast? At this moment, Cui Yu, who was still ashamed just now, suddenly raised his head, took a few steps forward and said very firmly.

Hearing Cui Yu's words, a trace of guilt flashed on Mrs. Cheng's face, but after all, she had experienced a lot of things, and her mind was naturally quite firm, so she finally spoke: "Yu'er, you have to think clearly, if you lose this opportunity, if you want our clan to win the position of patriarch again, it will become far away." ”

"Auntie, the eldest husband has something to do and something not to do, and the nephew has decided to follow Rokuro in the future, with his talent, he will definitely be able to make a big career!" Cui Yu replied categorically, since his prodigal son turned back, he has always regarded regaining the patriarch of the Cui clan in Qinghe as the greatest pursuit in his life, but the current patriarch Cui Yan's power has been established, and he has fallen behind, otherwise he would not be forced to go to business.

"Good! Brother Cui is really ambitious, he will only inherit the foundation of his predecessors, he is not a big husband, as a good man in the Tang Dynasty, we naturally want to start our own career! When Li Yu heard Cui Yu's words, he couldn't help but praise loudly.

"Cousin and Liulang are right, although I, Cheng Huailiang, am not talented, but I am also full of enthusiasm, your business is counted as my share!" Cheng Huailiang was also excited by Li Su's words, and couldn't help but stand up and shout.

Although Cheng Yanjin was startled by his son's voice, he looked up and laughed afterwards, because he saw from his son the pride and enthusiasm of his youth, which is what young people should have.

"I really don't understand you men!" Mrs. Cheng watched her son go crazy, but her husband not only didn't care, but also laughed happily, and couldn't help but mumble in his mouth, which was regarded as expressing his dissatisfaction. …,

finally passed the level of Cheng Biting Jin and Cui Yu, and Li Su couldn't help but feel a lot more relaxed. Originally, Li Su still wanted to see Mengxue, after all, she was very angry that day, and she should coax her. But Mrs. Cheng thinks it's inappropriate, after all, the Lu family hasn't withdrawn from the marriage for a day, and Mengxue is waiting to be married for a day, so it's really not good to have too much contact with Li Su, especially in this period when rumors are flying. Li Su can also understand this reason, so he has to give up.

After chatting with Cheng Yanjin and his wife for a while, and telling Cui Yu about their parting, Li Yu left Cheng's mansion. However, when he rode away, he glanced back at the gate of Cheng Mansion, and a mysterious smile hung on the corner of his mouth.

Back in the main hall of the Qi Palace, Wang An, as the prince, was already waiting for Li Su there. As soon as Li Su saw the other party, he immediately bowed to the ground and said: "Wang Fu is clever, Mrs. Cheng really proposed that I support Brother Cui to compete for the position of patriarch, and Brother Cui has also arrived in Chang'an City." ”

Wang An heard Li Su's words, but showed an unexpected smile, and then stroked his beard and said: "This is also reasonable, Cui Yu is bent on regaining the position of patriarch, and Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Lao Guogong are his biggest foreign aid and his most staunch supporters, but behind Cui Yan stands the Boling Cui clan, so Cui Yu is no match for the current patriarch Cui Yan regardless of the forces inside or outside the clan, and since His Royal Highness has failed that Miss Cui this time, with Mrs. Cheng's shrewdness, he will naturally not let go of this good opportunity!" ”

Listening to Wang An's analysis, Li Su really admired this Wang Fu, and even he could have expected this kind of thing in advance, such a character can almost be compared with the legendary Zhuge Liang.

"Wang Fu, don't you let me promise to help Brother Cui, but this is a good opportunity to meddle in the Qinghe Cui clan, wouldn't it be a pity to let it go so freely?" Li Su asked with a frown. In order to reject Mrs. Cheng, although the words he said in Cheng's mansion were sincere, they were also due to Wang An's explanation in advance.

"Hehe, Your Highness, don't be too greedy, although the five surnames and seven hopes have fallen behind in the general trend, but the so-called hundred-legged insects, dead but not stiff, now meddling in the internal affairs of the Qinghe Cui clan, do you know what the consequences will be?" Wang An asked with a smile. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
