At this time, Cui Bailing still looked arrogant, and Xiao Rui said that it was fake not to be angry. To borrow a classic line: Uncle Li is angry, and the consequences are serious.

"The two of you want to leave, and the official naturally doesn't dare to stop you. But to be clear, that batch of supplies was captured from the Turks in a dignified manner, and it was not for you to use as a favor. ”

Cui Bailing roared: "That's ......"

"Shut up!" Xiao Rui stretched out his hand and pointed, and his fierce aura instantly subdued the other party, and the temperature in the entire living room seemed to be a few degrees lower, Cui Bailing felt like he had seen a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, his back was cold, and he wanted to shiver.

Shocking Cui Bailing, Xiao Rui resumed a businesslike tone: "As for Cui Baiquan, there is human and material evidence, and this person is a spy for fornicating with the Turks." It is a trivial matter to worship the Turks, after all, my Tang Emperor also worshipped with the Turkic Khan. But Cui Baiquan gave a large amount of supplies to the enemy before the war, obviously supporting the Turks to attack the Tang Dynasty, and we have reason to suspect that he lured the wolf into the house...... Therefore, this person will be sent to Chang'an City and handed over to the Criminal Department for trial and conviction. ”

What? You......

Now, not only Cui Bailing, but even his father Cui Shouli also understood that Xiao Rui was murderous, what to send to Chang'an City, it was clear that he wanted to use Cui Baiquan to promote and ruin the reputation of the Cui clan in Qinghe.

Although the five surnames and seven hopes are reluctant to mix in the battle between foreign barbarians and the imperial court, the notoriety of the secret barbarians, if it is put on the surface, it will be criticized by the whole world, which is very bad.

Cui Bailing, who came to his senses, brushed his sleeves and said: "From now on, Cui Baiquan is no longer a member of the Qinghe Cui family. ”

Xiao Rui smiled, "Hehe, that's your own business." What I can do is to report the truth to the public, and send the prisoner to Chang'an safely for trial. Two, don't send it slowly. By the way, Elder Cui, what did you just say, Qinghe Cui's family made peace from it, so that the five surnames and Qiwang would no longer come to me to trouble? Rui thank you for your kindness, I won't trouble you Cui Lao, Qinghe Cui's family has a character like Cui Baiquan, Xiao Rui doesn't dare to touch your light. ”

"As for the trouble that the five surnames and seven hopes are looking for me? It doesn't matter, Xiao Rui is now the governor of Youzhou, and he is also the county guard of Anle City, representing the Tang Dynasty, whoever wants to come to find trouble will not be able to get along with the court, just come. The heavenly soldiers of the Tang Dynasty can't do anything to their own people, but if it is a spy who pays off the enemy, I think the people will applaud. ”

You...... You're blackmailing! Cui Bailing's face turned red.

Facing Xiao Rui, a hairy boy, Cui Bailing was repeatedly frustrated, feeling that he had lived to a dog at all his age.

Cui Shouli waved his hand to stop his son, looked directly at Xiao Rui, and asked in a calm tone, "You seem to have counted us and we are coming?" ”

"Xiao Rui is not a fortune teller, and he has no ability to predict the future." Xiao Rui denied it.

"Okay, don't beat around the bush. If you want to send Cui Baiquan to Chang'an to punish the crime, you don't have to wait for us to come, you can be escorted on the road a long time ago. Since you didn't kill him, you still deliberately kept it, didn't you just wait for us to come to the door, so you can take the opportunity to take it? Let's get it straight, what do you want? Cui Shouli was scheming and saw through Xiao Rui's tricks at a glance.

Cui Bailing also understood, but just stared at Xiao Rui coldly.

Xiao Rui stroked his palm and praised: "Good! Cui Lao is refreshing. Qinghe Cui's reputation for hundreds of years cannot be ruined in the hands of a villain, so after thinking about it again, I decided to hand over Cui Baiquan to you to dispose of yourself. However, after all, this matter is in an uproar in Anle, and almost everyone knows about it, and it seems unreasonable if you can't give an explanation to the people and officers and soldiers here. ”

Cui Shouli snorted coldly, and said in his heart that this Xiao Rui is not very old, but his scheming is deep, he is really a cunning little fox, "Condition!" ”

"It's nothing, I just want the Cui family to support some grain and grass in Youzhou for border defense." As he spoke, Xiao Rui took out a list that had already been prepared and handed it over.

Cui Shouli took it and looked at it carefully, Cui Bailing also came closer to take a look, and gradually his eyes widened, pointing at Xiao Rui and asking, "So much grain and grass?" Do you know that so much grain and grass is enough to equip an army of 50,000 to fight a big battle! ”

Xiao Rui said with a smile: "Cui Da's shopkeeper is a good student, you will be a quartermaster for me, right?" ”

You...... Hum!

"How many soldiers and horses to equip with these materials, grain and grass, whether to fight a big battle or not, that is something that the imperial court has to consider. Now the two of them only need to choose, whether to take material support or send Cui Baiquan to Chang'an. Xiao Rui has never been strong. ”

Cui Shouli said in a deep voice: "The Qinghe Cui family has a big business, and there are many clansmen to support. We can't get so much food, food, and grass. ”

Xiao Rui's tone was slightly cold: "Just now, the shopkeeper Cui seemed to have said that when the Tang Dynasty raised troops, the Qinghe Cui clan also provided grain and grass to support it. What does this mean now is that the civil war supports food and grass, but the foreign war does not work? ”

You......

Rao is Cui Shouli's belly is black and shameless, and he doesn't dare to admit it. Supporting the civil war, not supporting the external fight against the barbarians, once this hat is buttoned up, it will lose the national righteousness, and the Qinghe Cui clan can no longer gain a foothold in the Tang Dynasty.

Xiao Rui knew that back then, the people of the Han family in the Central Plains were slaughtered from a population of 30 million, and only a few million were slaughtered.

And the five surnames and seven wangs all started from the end of the Han Dynasty, and after hundreds of years of chaos in the two Jin Dynasty and the five Hu Chaohua, they can still stand in the Central Plains, what does it mean? Are they so strong that the Hu people don't invade? Of course not, it can only be said that they know how to survive very well.

They were also harmed at the beginning, did they forget their hatred? No, children are good and evil, and adults only look at the pros and cons.

Whether it is the Beidi Hu people becoming bigger or the imperial court becoming bigger, it is not a good thing for the five surnames and Qiwang, and even if the imperial court becomes bigger, the five surnames and seven wangs are more dangerous. With the threat of the Beidi Hu people, the imperial court will focus all its attention on the outside world, and even use these gate valve families.

But if you help the court to level the foreign enemy, the court will free up its hands, and it will clean up the gate valve when it turns around.

Xiao Rui sighed and said, "Elder Cui, there will be a battle between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks. If he wins, he will at least lay a hundred years of peace for the people of the Central Plains. If he is defeated, Jieli will lead his troops south, and from then on we will all live under the humiliation of barbarians. Qinghe Cui's family, as one of the best families in the world, is an example in the hearts of countless readers, how to choose, you should always know better than below. ”

Cui Bailing sneered: "Phew! Kidnapping and blackmail, what you said was a lot of money, Xiao Rui, shameless, no one in the world can beat you. ”

Xiao Rui arched his hand and said, "Xie Cui's praise from the shopkeeper." ”

Cui Shouli stretched out his hand to stop his son, and said to Xiao Rui seriously: "Thank you Xiao for protecting the reputation of the Qinghe Cui family." We can only take out 80% of the grain and grass at most. ”

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Rui finally nodded and agreed: "Okay, that's all." Your old face is worth 20% of grain and grass. When the time comes, it can be transported directly to the treasury of Youzhou, and a letter will be sent to the governor of the capital in the next meeting, claiming that it is a righteous donation from the Cui clan of Qinghe, and the imperial court will give a qualitative one. The people of Youzhou will remember the righteousness of the Qinghe Cui family. ”

"Let's go, I'll take the two of you and hand over Cui Baiquan to you and take him back for discipline."

In fact, in Xiao Rui's heart, they were asking for a price to pay back, and it was good that they could come up with five achievements, but they didn't expect to be able to come to eighty percent. Gee...... Or underestimate the financial resources of these gate valves.

Cui Bailing said hatefully: "Cui Baiquan has a weak soul, why doesn't he die?" Don't die! ”

The old man Cui Shouli asked Xiao Rui: "Xiao Yuma, with these testimonies, Cui Baiquan is useless, why don't you kill him?" ”

Xiao Rui waved his hand again and again: "Cui Baiquan is the son of the Qinghe Cui family, how dare Xiao Rui have the courage to make a mortal enmity with the Qinghe Cui family?" ”

Bah! Listen, is this human talk? What a shame! Don't you Xiao Rui dare? You're done with everything, what else are you afraid of?

This is Xiao Rui's cleverness, Cui Baiquan deserves to die, but he should never die in the hands of outsiders, you Qinghe Cui can kill as much as you want, but I am in Anle City, or the Tang Dynasty, or Xiao Rui, whoever kills will fall into the handle. Evidence and testimony may be overturned one day, so they must be handed over to the Cui family in good condition.

In this way, not only can Cui Shi pinch his nose and recognize it, but he must also remember Xiao Rui's favor. After all, whether it is extortion or not, Xiao Rui has indeed managed to protect the reputation of the Qinghe Cui family.

Cui's father and son took Cui Baiquan and quietly left Anle City in a carriage, on the way, Cui Shouli told his son Cui Bailing: "In the future, if it is not for Xiao Rui to deliberately suppress us, don't embarrass him." ”

"Why? Father, are we Qinghe Cui really afraid of him as a doll? ”

Cui Shouli sighed: "In this world, whoever dares to judge Xiao Rui by his appearance will definitely make a big mistake!" In my opinion, this son is extremely smart, and his methods are more vicious than the emperor, and the most difficult thing is that he does things unscrupulously without scruples. ”

He...... Cui Bailing thought about it, it was true, it was really a terrible person.

"Such a person is destined to become the sharpest knife in the emperor's hand. Therefore, try not to provoke if you can. To deal with such people, it is necessary to overcome rigidity with softness. Take the initiative to show favor, don't let him grab the handle, you have to change your attitude towards him. Although Qinghe Cui's is famous, you have to admit that compared to him, you are inferior, and if you are not as good as others, you must learn to respect your opponent, but can you write it down? ”

Cui Bailing was convinced, and nodded heavily: "Yes, remember my father's teachings, and my son has written them down." ”
