168 Life is a play
"Ah~~"
Cui Mengyao half-sat on the luxurious Hu bed made of mahogany and yawned a long time.
"Miss, what's wrong with you, your eyes are dark, you don't have energy, you had nightmares last night?" As soon as Chun'er saw that the young lady was awake, she immediately walked over to wait, and when she saw Cui Mengyao with a sad face, she couldn't help but ask.
"Not really." Cui Mengyao said a little depressedly: "I don't know why, I was a little restless last night, I couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, and I slept for a while when it was almost dawn." ”
"Then I'll ask the kitchen to make some soup for the young lady, see you're so tired~~"
"Well, it's okay, my skin has been a little dry lately."
………
"Ah~~~" While Cui Mengyao yawned, Cui Jing also yawned.
But he is not alone, beside him, there is also a small and delicate figure, a woman with a graceful body, this woman is the "pillow" added by his nephew last night, has practiced jiu-jitsu, is proficient in the art of the room, and has a variety of tricks, plus Cui Jing was angry last night, and was looking for something to vent, so that the state was brave, as if when he came back to his youth, no, the woman has not woken up yet.
It's all tired.
"Master, wash it, warm water and silk scarves are ready outside, and my nephew is waiting outside the door early in the morning, waiting for you to meet you." Unlike his daughter, the person who was waiting for Cui Jing was the old loyal slave Cui Afu, as soon as he saw Cui Jing wake up, he immediately stepped forward to change his clothes, and reported the latest situation to him by the way.
"Oh, I know."
Cui Jing nodded and responded, with no expression on his face, and it was difficult to hide the joy in his eyes.
This nephew of his own, who is quite capable, asked him to report the results to him before noon. I didn't expect to hear the good news as soon as I got up, and I couldn't help but be very happy.
Last night, his emotions were out of control, and he showed Liu Yuan the scene of "assassinating" himself, although the "human evidence" and "physical evidence" are all there, and it is easy to convict Liu Yuan, but it is really a good strategy, because there are many flaws in it, and it is easy for people with a heart to find out that if an official of his level is murdered. That has to alarm Dali Temple, and it will be troublesome to check it.
Of course, it was just a means, a kind of intimidation, if you really want Liu Yuan to die, Cui Jing only needs a word. Some people take care of it for him.
It's still early, and the news is coming so soon. Go without saying. It must be good news, Cui Jing nodded secretly: This nephew of his own, who is observant, can be an official, and can be flexible, can be of great use, well, find an opportunity to make a move. It's another member of the Cui family.
What I hope is that punishment should not be used, even if it is tortured, it should be used in places where it cannot be seen, otherwise. It seems that his own Cui clan forced him.
Others were in a hurry, but Cui Jing was not in a hurry, first he finished washing slowly, and after spending half an hour running out of breakfast, he summoned Cui Tingshi, who had been waiting outside for a long time.
Cui Tingshi saluted Cui Jing, and then said respectfully: "Third uncle, Liu Yuan wants to meet your old man and ask me to intercede." ”
"Oh, what's the matter with him?" Cui Jing said with a look of "doubt".
There are some things that we all know each other, but that layer of paper cannot be pierced, we must do things carefully, and we must speak elegantly, this is the unwritten rules of the game for the literati.
"He didn't say it, he had to say that he met you."
"Okay then." Cui Jing waved his hand and said, "Let him come in." ”
Soon, Liu Yuan, who was a little depressed, walked into the room under the leadership of Cui Jing.
As soon as he entered the door~~~ Liu Yuan shook his head, and in the room, there was a free chair and two special sofas, Nima, aren't these his own? Why did they all move here, this Cui Jing, wouldn't he have a habit of collecting furniture?
However, just after a pause, Liu Yuan pretended not to see it, gave Cui Jing a salute, and said respectfully: "Hello, Lord Shangshu." ”
"Well, sit down."
"Lord Xie Shangshu." Liu Yuan responded, sat down on the sofa at his own head and sat down, there was a sofa, naturally he didn't want to sit on his knees, he was tired and sore, and his feet were numb after kneeling for a long time.
As for the "murder" last night, the three of them had a tacit understanding and did not mention it, at least not now.
Cui Jing touched his beard, and then said slowly: "I heard that you have something to look for me, so what's the matter?" ”
This old boy, pretending to be true, Liu Yuan secretly slandered in his heart: What are you doing here? Come here to be a cuckold, come here to buy big and get small, didn't you force me to come, and there are no outsiders here, what else are you pretending, to be honest, Liu Yuan hates the behavior of these officials a little, and when he is a bitch, he has to set up a chastity workshop, deceiving himself.
Liu Yuan couldn't, so he had to say respectfully: "Last night, Lord Shangshu said that it was originally a villain to say that he was a matchmaker, but then he drank a little high, and this matter was delayed. ”
"Really? Did I say that? Cui Jing asked a little "surprised".
Cui Jing reminded on the side: "Third uncle, that's right, that's because you drank a little high, and you did say that you wanted to talk about Liu Yuan, I really heard this matter on the side, but it can be regarded as a drunken joke, so it can not be taken seriously." ”
"Which line of work, I have always been a book of words, Liu Yuan, whose girl do you like, this official will be your master." Cui Jing said with a serious face.
It's amazing, a drunken joke covered up everything, and then took the joke seriously, to show that he believed in his words, and later this thing was said, and even a joke became a beautiful thing.
Wine is really a good thing, as long as it is used well, it can be true or false, even if there is something wrong, you can also use a "drunken gaffe" or "drunken immorality" to cover up the past.
These words are similar to what I said last night, but I said it again at a different time and in a different space, which is quite boring, and it feels like I am acting, I didn't act well yesterday, and I reshoot it today.
Liu Yuan bit his lip and said with a worried face: "When I handed over the birthday banquet of Mrs. Cui, I inadvertently looked at Ling Yan, that is, Miss Cui Mengyao, she was born beautiful, and she was very wise, I really fell in love at first sight, little courage, I asked to marry Miss Cui Mengyao Qin Jin, and asked Lord Shangshu to fulfill it." ”
Wouldn't it have been enough to say that earlier? In this way, there is no need to do such a thing, and Cui Tingshi on the side was also secretly relieved when he heard this: This kid is finally on the road. It's not in vain to put in your own hard work.
"What? Do you want to pursue my Mengyao? You don't want to think about what your identity is, the toad wants to eat swan meat, dreaming! Cui Jing was "furious" when he heard this.
Liu Yuan was speechless, this old boy can really pretend, no wonder he can be mixed with the fat department of the Ministry of Industry Shangshu to be the boss, and what is made is a big project, often tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions of taels of such big projects, just get a little bit, you can worry about food and clothing.
"Lord Shangshu promised the villain. Besides, Miss Cui Mengyao and I are in love, please fulfill it. Liu Yuan thought of a good statement early in the morning. Say it out loud.
Cui Tingshi asked on the side: "Two lovers?" No way, my niece is a famous queen. Ladylike. And you are just an insignificant little businessman, you say that you are happy with her, is there any evidence for this? ”
Liu Yuan took out the jade pendant in front of his head and said, "Lord Thorn Shi, please see, this is a gift from Miss Cui." ”
Forget it, you like acting, then I'll play with you. Isn't that what you want? I'll give this to you, anyway, this is what the girl used to pay off the debt, and no one will take it seriously.
Life is like a play.
Cui Mengyao, you are ruthless. Before you get married, you will cuckold Lao Tzu first, and you will have a cheap son.......
"Ah~~~" Cui Tingshi exclaimed exaggeratedly, snatched the jade pendant, and said loudly: "Third uncle, you see, this is really Meng Yao's personal thing, I remember she said that this thing was passed down by her deceased mother, and told her that it was used as a love token for her future husband, and now this jade pendant appears in Liu Yuan's hand, and the two are happy, I think it is true." ”
What the? That jade pendant is a thing of love!
Liu Yuan was like a blow to the head, and it was like five thunderbolts, and he was stunned all of a sudden.
I understood, everything was understood, and all the unreasonableness before was figured out at once.
No wonder when she asked for this jade pendant as collateral, Cui Mengyao refused to live or die, and said that she wanted to go directly to Mrs. Cui to get it back, so she gritted her teeth and agreed, and threatened that if she lost it or broke it, she would have her own life or something, the original reason is here: This jade pendant was compensated by her deceased mother and was used as a token of love.
By the way, last time Du Sanniang was forcibly abducted by Gongsun Shengwen, and when he asked Cui Tingshi for help, at the beginning, he ignored himself at all, and sent someone to blast him out of the mansion, but when he went out, he suddenly changed his mind again, and then everything became very easy to discuss, and patiently explained to himself, and finally rescued the person.
Then there are industry competitions, the treatment of being exempted from kneeling in court trials, making judgments favorable to Liu Yuan, the cooperation between officials and businessmen to acquire the sealed jewelry, the opening of Moyun Study, etc., all of which have the figure of Cui Tingshi, to put it mildly, Cui Tingshi has been secretly helping himself.
There is no hatred for no reason in the world, and there is no love for no reason, Liu Yuan remembered that when those people pulled him, the jade pendant was indeed revealed, and it was then that Cui Tingshi could favor himself.
Nima, he must have thought that he had an adulterous affair with Cui Mengyao or something, and then put himself as a "strange goods" that of course can be lived in.
As for Cui Mengyao's "identification" of herself and looking for herself as a substitute for the dead ghost, it is estimated that her family found out that she had a stomach problem and a secret knot, firstly, they hated themselves for blackmailing her, and secondly, the jade pendant was on herself, so she could explain the matter of the jade pendant, so .......
He became a "scapegoat".
After thinking about the ins and outs, Liu Yuan was speechless for a moment: Nima, I knew that I wouldn't be greedy for that little bargain, and I must rob that jade pendant.
Everything is caused by this jade pendant.
Cui Jing took the jade pendant and recognized it at a glance, this is the jade pendant left by his deceased wife to his daughter, when he thinks of his deceased wife, he can't help but feel a lot of feelings, because this jade pendant is the token of love he gave to his deceased wife, but he didn't expect it to fall on Liu Yuan's body now.
"This~~~This~~~" Cui Jing hesitated, he didn't know what to say.
"Third uncle, I think Liu Yuan is a material that can be made, and he and Meng Yao are in love, it is better to fulfill them, and it is also a good thing" Cui Tingshi exclaimed bitterly.
"This~~~~" Cui Jing had already said yes in his heart, but he still hesitated in his mouth.
It was too easy to agree, but it seemed that his daughter was not noble.
Cui Tingshi quietly stepped on Liu Yuan and gave him a look.
"Lord Shangshu, you promised me about this matter, you have to keep your word, besides, it is better to demolish a temple than to demolish a family, please be old and perfect." After Liu Yuan finished speaking, everyone knelt down for him.
Do a full set of plays, plus Cui Tingshi told him the benefits of Cui Jing in the morning, especially the countless good fields and beautiful houses under his name, the antique industry, etc., it seems that it is not bad, after all, he only has one daughter~~~~
Cui Jing was too lazy to act, gritted his teeth and said: "I can't be the master of this matter, I still need the old lady's nod, so let's go, you leave as soon as possible, bring the matchmaker dowry, and go to my Qinghe Cui Mansion to propose." After speaking, he turned his head and said to Cui Tingshi: "Virtuous nephew, Liu Yuan doesn't know the way, you personally accompany him on a trip." ”
"Yes, Third Uncle." Cui Tingshi responded without hesitation.
fainted to death, and wanted to run to Qinghe to propose marriage, and was afraid that he didn't know the way, so he let Cui Tingshi lead the way, but in fact, he was monitoring himself to prevent him from running away.
As for it...... (To be continued.) )
