Chapter 470: A Generation of Emperors (8)

In the southeast of Dingzhou, there was originally a big city, called Bolingyi, and then after several changes, now it is only a small city, but even if it is a small city, it is still famous far and wide. There is no other reason, because it is the home of the Boling Cui clan, just like the Wenxi Pei clan in Hedong, Wenxi is just a small city.

The Cui clan has absolute authority in Boling, and it can be said that the Cui clan is the king within a radius of 100 miles, and every qiē is decided by the Cui clan, and the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty no longer apply here, because the Cui clan is the king of the law here.

Fortunately, the Cui family is a famous family, but I have never heard of anything that happened in the township, and the prestige of the Cui family in the Dingzhou area is quite high, every time there is a major drought and flood, the Cui family will take out the grain to help the county and even the nearby people, over time, the people in the Boling area only know that there is the Cui family, do not know that there is an emperor.

The current head of the Cui family is Cui Ye, who was dismissed in the imperial court cleanup not long ago, and is now sixty years old.

At this time, Cui Ye, the head of the Cui family, climbed to the top of the city, looking at this beautiful place, he sighed lightly, and a middle-aged man on the side immediately asked, "Why is the eldest brother sighing so much?" “

"It's going to change!" Cui Ye said immediately.

"Changing the sky?" The middle-aged man was stunned, "Big brother, you mean the prince?" ”

"Second brother, you are not in the court, so I don't know that this prince is not an ordinary prince, his mind jumps, everywhere is unpredictable, as if he is shrouded in a layer of fog, but you and I both know that he has been poor since childhood, and was later favored by Li Ji and accepted as a disciple. But it didn't take long for Li Ji to die, and I will know later that he was originally the nephew of that woman. But no matter how smart a child is, even if it is a prodigy. It shouldn't be like this, it's really a monster! ”

The middle-aged man is the second brother of the head of the Boling Cui family, Cui Sheng, and the specific affairs of the Cui family are managed by him. Moreover, the management family has its own set of methods, so that the Boling Cui clan has the potential to surpass the Qinghe Cui clan. In addition, he himself is a person who has a deep study of Confucianism, and he is very fond of Cui's family studies, and he was once proud of Cui's family studies. Until the advent of science. The emergence of science almost completely broke the monopoly of the family on educational resources, which not only made Boling Cui feel helpless. Even the major families also feel this way.

While those small families have thrown themselves into the arms of science, Confucian families such as the Cui family still stick to their traditions.

Cui Sheng said: "Maybe it's the changes that took place in the five years when he was exiled to Runzhou by the first emperor!" ”

Cui Ye nodded and said, "I asked you to send someone to Runzhou to investigate, is there any news?" ”

Cui Sheng sighed and said, "Cui Si'er has been in Shangyuan County for half a year. In half a year. He has traveled almost all over Shangyuan County, but when someone mentions the prince, it is an endless good word, that is, the people's homes have offered immortal cards, well, and there is a thing that can't be laughed at, and it is said that the women in the land of fireworks are also enshrined...... As far as the younger brother knows, it seems that the prince has never been to the land of fireworks! ”

Cui Ye suddenly smiled and said, "You haven't been in Luoyang." Naturally, I don't know that there is an interesting story circulating in the market. ”

Cui Sheng smiled: "The eldest brother is still fighting with the younger brother!" ”

Cui Ye said: "You also know that Dafan is still the concubine of the princess of the royal family. No one dared to take a concubine, even if they were sneaky. But if you look at the prince, not only did he get Luoyang peony, but it is also said that the concubines he accepted in the future were all as beautiful as flowers, and it was rumored that there were no less than 100 concubines. ”

"There are so many?" Cui Sheng gasped.

Cui Ye smiled slightly and said, "Actually, this is not counted, it is rumored that the prince's work is bigger than that of a donkey......"

Cui Sheng was stunned for a moment, then sighed and said, "If this is the case, then you and I have lived in vain in this life!" ”

Cui Ye sighed: "Why don't you say it? The fact that the prince was able to establish the science of science was a sign of the advent of a saint, and it was a sad thing for my generation of literati to be born in this era, but it was also a great blessing. ”

"Is the eldest brother's sigh just because of that?" Cui Sheng is familiar with the temper of the eldest brother, so he asked again, after all, the great cleanup of the imperial court some time ago was not a big blow to the family gatekeeper, and he was afraid that the eldest brother would not be able to figure it out and be depressed from then on.

Cui Ye smiled bitterly, then took out an envelope from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Cui Sheng.

Cui Sheng took it, and saw that there was no word on it, so he opened the envelope and took out a prayer post, he opened the worship post again, and saw that the handwriting on it was strong and powerful, and the spirit was natural, and naturally there was a kingly domineering spirit that seemed to flow between the words.

At the end of the prayer post, there was a line of words, "Junior Qingxin Academy Dean Wu Zheng worships!" ”

did not write about the prince of the Great Zhou, nor did he write about the general of the Great Zhou Tiance Mansion, nor did he write about the captain of the so-and-so concubine, but he wrote the dean of Qingxin Academy, and he called himself a junior, what is this going to do?

Cui Sheng once again carefully looked at the time of the visit, it was three days later, he looked at the eldest brother and said, "The eldest brother is worried about this? ”

Cui Ye said: "The Great Purge some time ago, whether it is the Qinghe Cui clan or my Boling Cui clan as an official in the court, everyone who is above the seventh grade has been deposed, and it can be said that there is only a new feud between my family and the prince." Now he is ordered to march north, and as soon as he comes to Hebei, he comes to visit, second brother, what do you say, what is his purpose? ”

Cui Sheng paused and said: "The crown prince did not visit as a royal family, but as the dean of Qingxin Academy, and called himself a junior, so it can be seen that he should want to exchange knowledge." ”

Cui Ye shook his head and said, "You, you underestimate the prince too much, but in a few years, he can almost completely control the Great Zhou army, and he can make Lou Shide, Di Renjie and other important ministers submit, he is not a simple person." This time I came to Boling, no matter what identity it is, in short, you have to remember that the person who comes is not good! ”

Cui Sheng wanted to refute the eldest brother, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't help it, he was not in the court, and he couldn't just listen to the rumors and draw conclusions, but wasn't it a blessing to be able to see the demeanor of the founder of science?

In the pavilion, there was a burst of laughter in a building, and the guards outside the official residence immediately listened carefully, but there was no other abnormal sound except for bursts of laughter. After a moment, the guard's face showed a look of disappointment.

Inside the official building.

In a wooden basin, the four feet were intertwined, scratching each other, and the water in the basin was almost spilled all over the ground, and there was not much left. One pair is obviously a man's big feet, while the other pair is extremely delicate and white, like mutton fat jade, which makes people feel that how can such a pair of small feet be tainted by big feet?

"Your Highness, don't scratch it, the slave is really unbearable." Li Xianhui wanted to laugh, but she didn't dare to make a sound, suddenly, she couldn't hold it back, so she giggled, revealing her neat teeth, and then she covered her mouth with her little hand, holding back tears, so that people didn't feel pity.

On the side, Wu Zheng stared at the little feet with an evil face, trying to scratch the little feet with his toes, and when he heard Li Xianhui's words, he knew that it would be unseemly to make any more trouble, so he got up, put on clogs, squatted down, grabbed the beautiful feet that were still writhing, and took the cloth and wiped them.

Li Xianhui exclaimed in surprise and said, "Your Highness, how dare the slave let you do this?" I wanted to withdraw it, but I was clamped by a big hand from Wu Shu.

Wu Chu admired for a moment and exclaimed: "It's really a pair of beautiful feet!" (To be continued......)
