Chapter 144: Triven
"Lord Wang, Lord Wang!"
Shen Baiyan heard Cui Erwen's voice from a long distance, and he slowed down his pace, waiting for Cui Erwen to catch up.
"Just came back from Junan and are so energetic? Don't need to take a break? "Shen Baiyan is a year younger than Cui Erwen Cui Erwen, but I don't know why, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was like an elder, not because he was in a high position now, but because he was in a high position five years ago, and he also felt like this.
Triven scratched his head and said a little shyly, "I slept enough a few days ago, so I don't need to rest." ”
"Hmm." Shen Baiyan replied and walked by himself. "It's hard for civil officials to work hard in the military generals, and you did a good job."
This reward is not as good as Shen Baiyan's words, Cui Erwen smiled and couldn't see his eyes, but when he thought of what the elders in the family had done, he smiled again, and said very embarrassedly: "Lord, grandmother is confused." ”
"It's not just her, but also the eldest uncle and the younger uncle, compared to the grandmother, the two of them are the ones who are really anxious."
Shen Baiyan knew that his cousin's temperament was not so much that he was superficial and arrogant, but that he was childish, shallow-spoken, and would not be sloppy. That's why his father is particularly worried, and he is all over the officialdom.
Cui Erwen was stunned in fright, and when he saw Shen Baiyan drifting away, he caught up again and asked, "Are they really behind the scenes!?" ”
Shen Baiyan was amused by his words, hooked the corners of his mouth, and said deliberately: "They are interested in business, not for your great future?" ”
Cui Erwen straightened his face when he heard this, and said, "If that's the case, it's not necessary. How can my future be tied to a woman? Then give me the woman. Just say that I have merit, so it is okay to give you a reward, or whatever I ask of you. ”
"Your brain is spinning fast." Shen Baiyan said, "You are still living at home, if you take that woman away, won't they make a fuss." ”
"Then, then let the woman stay in the palace? Isn't the princess angry? Cui Erwen had never seen Song Zhi, and only knew from the Cui family's words that she was a beautiful woman with great means, holding the prince's heart firmly in the palm of her hand. The relationship between the prince and the princess is comparable to that between the aunt and the old prince.
"If I don't care about that woman, why should she care?"
Shen Baiyan is tall and long-legged, and he has no difficulty in walking, but it is bitter for Cui Erwen, Shen Baiyan takes one step, he has to take two or three steps.
Cui Erwen was so envious of Shen Baiyan's casual tone, how much this husband and wife had to trust each other to say this. Unlike the vinegar jar at the head of his house, he just went out to socialize, and when he came back, he had to smell his underwear, and if he smelled a trace of fat powder, he would have to make a fuss.
"I heard that you and your cousin have been having some dirt recently? What's wrong? ”
As soon as Shen Baiyan's words came out, Cui Erwen's face turned red, and his hand unconsciously stroked the back of his neck, and said, "Hey! I have something dirty with Dao Wuneng, but the stupid woman in the family is not angry, I just earned a little credit, and she ran to her younger siblings to show off. provoked my younger siblings to quarrel with Daowu, and made it a little embarrassing for the two of us to meet. ”
"When the two girls of the Cen family asked you to choose, why did you choose this second girl?"
Shen Baiyan is not a person who cares about other people's affairs, so many years have passed, and now he remembers to ask, "She is so impatient, and you are gentle, how can you get together?" ”
Cui Erwen laughed self-deprecatingly, staggered his gaze, and lowered his eyes: "Where is my choice, it's just a good thing to say." It was my father who secretly came up with the idea, and I was just going through the motions. The eldest girl of the Cen family is a concubine, although she grew up with the ancestors of the Cen family, but after all, she is a little worse, even if she is talented, what is the use? ”
Cui Erwen went to school in the Cen family school when he was young, and the eldest girl of the Cen family can be said to be childhood sweethearts.
"When will they let go, stop worrying about our business." Triven said sullenly with a pin on his face.
"Now they don't dare to let go, if they let go, then isn't it the king's world?" Shen Baiyan said coldly.
Cui Erwen was still a little sad, but now he was startled by the chill in his voice and didn't dare to answer, and saw Shen Baiyan turn over his horse after walking out of the palace gate and gallop away.
"Great young master, eldest young master."
It wasn't until the little guy next to him called again and again that Cui Erwen came back to his senses and muttered to himself: "Father is really nonsense." ”
Cui Erwen is a civil official, although he can ride a horse, but he always feels uncomfortable in his crotch after riding, so he still takes a carriage back home.
As soon as he returned home, someone came to report that Master Cui was looking for him.
Cui Erwen was a little upset, and it was also annoying to go back to the room to see Cen's, and it was also annoying to see his father! Why don't you have any taste at all when you live these days?
Cui Erwen went to Master Cui's study in the end, and as soon as he entered the door, Master Cui couldn't wait to ask: "I see what you have said to Jing Yu for a long time?" ”
"But gossip is commonplace." Triven said.
"Gossip? What do you have to say to him? "Master Cui obviously doesn't believe it,
"It's really gossip, Dad, I and the prince also knew each other at a young age, how can we not talk about it?" Cui Erwen has always been a docile image in front of Master Cui, which is just the opposite of Cui Daowu's unruliness.
"Did the prince mention the Chu family? Does he like it? Master Cui picked up the scissors and took care of the perfect bonsai in front of his desk, obviously looking for something to do.
Cui Erwen was silently lucky, making sure that he could still talk to his father calmly, "It's not that my father hasn't seen the princess, I heard my younger siblings say that the princess is ice muscles and jade bones, autumn water is the eye, and there is a princess by her side, how can the prince look down on that kind of mediocre woman?" ”
Master Cui raised his eyes and glanced at Cui Erwen, a little displeased, "The Chu family naturally has her benefits, and the princess also has her shortcomings." After a long time, she will have a place beside the prince, and when the time comes, she will be able to help them watch the prince and coax him. ”
He said this, and he could not hear Trilvin speak for a long time, so he straightened up and looked at him, and saw that he had a straight face, as if he was deliberately suppressing some of his expressions.
"You have something to say, and I didn't cut your tongue."
Cui Erwen endured it again and again, he couldn't hold it back, and said: "Father, you really don't know the prince, I have met the Chu family you and grandmother selected once." This kind of stupid woman who is greedy for vanity and doesn't know the height of the sky, do you really think you can get a little pity from the prince? ”
"Oh? I knew that you should be chosen for the prince, after all, you are all the kind of people who pay attention to sincerity, right? Master Cui said sarcastically, he didn't know the disagreement between Cui Erwen and his wife, but just turned a blind eye.
"Where did my father go, why did he get involved with me?" Triven held his breath and held his anger back into his chest.
"Aren't you still thinking about the eldest girl of the Cen family? The Cen family is not as good as before, the Cen eldest girl is not in good health, and she is not married yet, if you still think about it in your heart, you can fight for yourself, maybe the Cen family can let this big girl be a concubine for you, but don't you ......
Before Master Cui finished speaking, he only heard a heavy sound of the door closing, and when he looked up, he saw that the room was empty, and Cui Erwen slammed the door and left without saying a word.
Master Cui put the scissors back on the table and sat down with the chair handle. The handle of the chair was carved into the arc of a deer's antlers, and he habitually held the antlers, rubbing them slowly.
Although Cui Daowu and Cui Erwen are not extremely popular, they can be regarded as young and promising.
And there is another queen mother from her own family, and the current emperor is her biological son. The future of the Cui family can be said to be worry-free, provided that Shen Baiyan, an outlier, does not have any problems.
If it weren't for the fact that there were really few women in the Cui family's generation who were outstanding, they would not have chosen to come and go, and chose a Chu Wei to come out.
When Song Zhi was young, she only thought she was a very good-looking little girl, and there were still a few girls in the capital who could compare with her. But the older she gets, only she is the most iconic. And the beautiful and dusty charm on the body, there are few people in the capital who can compare with it.
Although Master Cui was dissatisfied with Cui Erwen's attitude, he had to agree with what he said, but this beauty is so easy to find, even if he finds a beauty, he may not be able to compare to Song Zhi.
Master Cui took a sip of the teacup and fell silent.
Cui Erwen returned to the gate of his courtyard angrily, he let out a long breath of turbid air and walked into the courtyard.
Cen glanced at him and peeled the dried lychees as usual and ate them. The table was scattered with lychee shells and lychee cores, she didn't clean it up herself, and she didn't let the maid clean it up, just messy and messy, she didn't pay attention to Trierwen, just glanced over from time to time.
Triven annoyed her and got up to go to the study.
Cen was anxious, chased after Cui Erwen, and said, "What do you mean when you come and leave immediately?" You might as well not come back! ”
Triven ignored it, but walked faster, as if some monster was chasing after him.
Cen Clan's henchman persuaded him, "Madam, didn't we talk about it?" When my uncle comes back, I want to serve him well, what man doesn't like a woman's gentleness? ”
"He likes gentleness? I think he just likes Cen Min'er's pretentious temperament! I can't learn it even if I die. Cen Shi's anger did not subside, and said.
Cen Min'er is the eldest daughter of the Yan family, only a few days older than the Cen family, and the Cen family should have been the eldest daughter, but it turned out that there was only the eldest daughter, not the eldest one, and she was crushed.
She has not been angry since she was a child, her appearance, figure, and knowledge, she is better than Cen Min'er everywhere, she is a concubine, and everything good is close to her, naturally better than Cen Min'er, but when she was young, she was alone in Cen Min'er.
Although they couldn't get together later, Cen still felt like he had picked up Cen Min'er's second-hand goods, and he was very dissatisfied.
