"No matter what the person who spreads the news is," Ye Yongjia sat down and said, "Those relatives of your Cui family are too vicious." Especially your aunt, who scolded again and again in the letter, it was heart-wrenching! ”

Cui Yi shook his head and sneered: "These people are like this, they don't see him coming to help them on weekdays, once something happens, they are afraid that you will defile the family, and they will be righteous and awe-inspiring to cut off you." In fact, they are also confused, usually relying on their power to bully the township and climb to the governor, completely ignoring the reputation of the Cui family; On the contrary, he is careful about this kind of thing, for fear of ruining the morality of the door. From the point of view below, what is not the same is all! It's just to see if the family business in your hands is not clean, and you have to set up a set of rules, show your literary morality, and fool the people. ”

Ye Yongjia saw the resentment in his stomach, and sighed softly: "He Xun is so excited, it must be a long-standing grudge. Can you tell us more about the situation there? ”

Cui Yi continued: "I came to the capital with my father when I was a child, and I have not lived in the township for more than 20 years. They had a closer relationship with my late father, and I only went back to my hometown a few times on his behalf. As for the relatives, most of them like to meet the powerful, and they are respectful and afraid when they see the big officials, but they do everything possible to calculate their own people, regardless of family affection, so there are endless lawsuits for land and wealth. ”

"Okay, these few paragraphs are enough, I already have a way to deal with it." Ye Yongjia nodded and said, "The most important thing now is to calm down the discussion, and only a few words of your sister's defense will not work." Since they are such people, they can go back with fifty taels of silver, and say that you have been appointed as the head of the criminal department, and you will be promoted after the mourning period, and I hope that you will not spread rumors again, hindering your fame and fame. ”

Cui Yi clapped his hands and said: "This strategy is wonderful! Uncle Clan is a good talker, and his prestige is also high, so I wrote to him to make sure that I could shut them up. But...... After all, paper can't contain the fire, and once the mourning period is over, the marriage ceremony will be performed, how to cover it up at that time? ”

Ye Yongjia lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and said coldly: "At that time, I had my own way. ”

When the two of them finished speaking, they gave up the topic and said a little gossip; Cui Yi wanted to serve tea again, Ye Yongjia hurriedly excused himself every night, got up to say goodbye, and left Cui's mansion.

After Cui Yi sent his brother-in-law away, he didn't feel sleepy anymore, and still sat in the guest hall in a daze, thinking about going out of the city; The servant rolled his eyelids and looked, not daring to call him.

In the blink of an eye, it was already dawn, and Cui Yi got up and entered the inner room without further ado, bowed three times to Cui Longhuai's spiritual seat, and put his mourning hat on the side; Then he went into the dormitory, told the servant to take out his civilian clothes, and immediately went to the mourning clothes. The dress he wore was exactly what Mr. Private School had dressed in the old days, and he walked down the street, and no one could find him, so he mixed in with the crowd and led the horse out of the city gate.

Cui Yi hurried for a long time, stopped at a county border that night, found an inn at random, and made do with dinner. It happened to be when it was about to get dark, the store was full of people, there were endless customers, and there was no noise around him, but Cui Yi didn't care, he was just eating the big bowl of noodles, and even the noodle soup was drunk with his head up, and then he went to talk to the owner.

The shopkeeper was dealing with many customers, collecting money for a while, signing for a while, and still hearing gossip in his ears, and his heart was irritable. Seeing another person coming to ask, his attitude couldn't help but turn sideways: "What are you doing?" ”

Cui Yi was quite stunned: "Shopkeeper, I want to stay with you for one night to pay the silver." ”

"Wait, wait," the shopkeeper waved his hand, "haven't you seen so many people?" ”

Cui Yisan got up, he was very sleepy at this time, and the more he looked at the shopkeeper, the more annoyed he became: "What? They're human, I'm not human? I haven't slept well all day, so I'll show me a room, I won't delay anything, I'll pay and leave. ”

"Oh, take the money!" The shopkeeper's fingers tapped the table a few times, and he muttered: "Dressed in tatters, and speaking so strongly, I really think I am a dignitary......

How do you know that Cui Yi's ears are clear, and he listened to every word, and suddenly became angry and gritted his teeth, so that he forgot his current identity, and slapped the table and shouted: "Presumptuous!" ”

This roar made the surrounding birds silent, and more than a dozen pairs of eyes looked at him; The shopkeeper was also frightened, his face was yellow, and he didn't dare to move.

Cui Yi looked at such a scene in a daze, and felt a little remorse in his heart, so he coughed twice and said, "No ...... Nothing. Shopkeeper, I want to live in a room. ”

The shopkeeper glanced at him coldly: "Eighty Wen." ”

How could Cui Yi endure such contempt, he was ashamed for a while, and he was anxious to prove his ability, so he reached into the blanket to find it, struggling to find something.

The shopkeeper leaned to the side, pouted, and thought, 'This guy has so much confidence that he won't even be able to get eighty yuan......

I saw Cui Yi's hand slowly stretched out from the blanket, clenched tightly, and got close to the table, before he stretched his fist, and there were two taels of silver inside.

"This ...... The ......" the shopkeeper stared at the two pieces of silver in astonishment, and his mouth couldn't help but open wide.

"It's a lot, take it." Cui Yi sneered contemptuously and turned to go upstairs.

He went into the house, lay down on the bed, and remembered what had just happened, and was still proud; But somehow, a feeling of fear suddenly flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help but stir him into a cold sweat. He touched the sweat on his neck, his expression gradually froze, and he secretly thought: "This place is not far from Jingshi, and it still belongs to Gyeonggi, and I am afraid that there are also the eyes and ears of the prince." Wasn't it here that Cunzhao was lawless and reckless? If there really was a prince in the inn, and saw me arguing loudly with the innkeeper, he would have noticed me. Then...... I guess I didn't let him see his face...... If he only has doubts and no conclusions, he will not easily identify me, which is fine. ’

Although he didn't know if he had eyes and ears, Cui Yi thought about it, but he was still cautious, so he sat up quickly, plastered the floor from the floor, and deducted some mud from the cracks in the wall, and wiped it all on his face; It was not enough, and I wanted to trim my beard, but there were no scissors in the cupboard, so in desperation, I simply lit a candle, brought the fire close to the beard, and burned the beard clean.

He touched the burned piece, and although it still hurt, he finally relieved himself.

Just as Cui Yi was about to put on the quilt again to rest, he suddenly remembered a major event, slapped his forehead four or five times, and sighed up to the sky: "If the prince really has a henchman here, how can I go to King Yi's mansion then?" Once my real name is revealed, he will inevitably identify me, won't he give up his efforts? It's really bad for Ye Gong's courteous entrustment! ”
