Chapter 342 Unlucky Cui
On the way back, Yang Ming chatted with Cui Churen for a while, only to learn that this kid turned out to be Du Yan's boss.
Du Yan worked as a pawn in the city guard at Mingde Gate, and Cui Churen is only nineteen years old this year, and with his father's shadow, he is a gatekeeper and a guard, and he can be regarded as an adjutant of the city defense.
He is the second son, and he also has a big brother Cui Chuzhi above him, who is now the county of Feng Yijun.
The current status of the old Cui family is very embarrassing, they don't want to have anything to do with Yang Jun, the king of Qi, but unfortunately Cui Lingzi, Cui Churen's cousin, married Yang Jun as the concubine of the king of Qi.
This family affair was decided by the emperor, and their family could not oppose it.
Cui Churen thanked Yang Ming for his help tonight, knowing that his status was humble, and he might never have the opportunity to be alone with Yang Ming again, so he said quite frankly:
"Several uncles are now deliberately estranged from the third uncle, and in their hearts, the uncles actually admire King Qin."
This sentence is like a petition for nomination, which is intended to show goodwill.
Yang Ming said with a smile: "If you say too much, you will lose, don't talk nonsense about some things." ”
Cui Churen sighed and said: "I just hope that His Highness will understand our situation, and it is not what I want, and it is really difficult. ”
"Be careful," Yang Ming said.
Cui Churen didn't dare to say any more.
Their family can be said to be the most unlucky in the past few years, the boss Cui Hongdu, now can't withstand the repeated blows, I heard that it is almost dying.
】
The second Cui Hongsheng, the daughter was originally the crown princess, but she was abolished, and the third Cui Hongjun's daughter was promised by the emperor to Yang Xuan, the king of Qi.
Cui Hongsheng had two younger sisters, one married to the son of Chi Hui, the prince of Shu during the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the other married to Yang Jian's third son, Yang Jun, the king of Qin.
The four marriages are all top-notch in gold content, the sons of three kings and one country, not to mention ordinary families, the wealthy lords in Guanzhong have not married so well, but they are unlucky, and these four marriages have special problems.
Wei Chi Hui rebelled, several sons were killed, Yang Jun was even more awesome, he was directly poisoned by his wife Cui, Yang Zhao abolished the concubine, and there was only one Cui Lingzi left, who was still married to Yang Yong.
The old Cui family is not satisfied with Yang Jun, according to their family's memorization in recent years, this marriage with Yang Jun is probably not a good thing.
Marriage is also a coexistence of risk and return.
Therefore, several brothers of the Cui family discussed it and decided to temporarily draw a clear relationship with the third child, Cui Hongjun, to see the after-effects.
This is called betting on both ends, such a big family, if they all bet on one person, once something happens, the family will be finished.
"I heard that Cui Hongjun is going to King Zhao's Mansion now?" Yang Ming asked.
Cui Churen nodded and said: "Back to Your Highness, I just went, and served as the chief of the palace of King Zhao, this is what the queen meant." ”
King Zhao is Yang Gao, the son of Xiao Concubine, Yang Ming's fourth brother, Cui Hongjun is not stupid, and he is afraid of accidents, so he bet on the two kings.
Yang Ming asked again: "Is there still any connection with Yang Hao?" ”
"Letters are frequent and never broken," said Cui.
Yang Hao is Yang Jun's eldest son, and now he is the king of Liang, and is now the hussar general of Heyang Mansion, he is Cui Churen's cousin and Yang Ming's cousin.
"Don't spread the news of meeting with this king tonight, it's not good for you," Yang Ming said.
Cui Churen was stunned for a moment, and after pondering for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know the humble position, can I have the opportunity to serve the King of Qin?" ”
"You are still young, you should ask Ling Zun for advice on everything, don't make your own decisions," Yang Ming took people to the dust and left.
Cui Churen stayed where he was, recalling Yang Ming's last words, and did not refuse, but he did not agree either.
After pondering for a long time, Cui Churen was shocked and suddenly enlightened.
He understood what Yang Ming meant, he was a goalkeeper, how could he be qualified to serve King Qin, the last sentence of the people was to imply that he would discuss more with his father Cui Hongsheng, and with his father's experience, he naturally knew how to deal with King Qin in the future.
Cui Churen was overjoyed in his heart, as long as King Qin gave him a chance, their family would definitely grasp it.
The next day, Yang Ming ordered Fang Xuanling to bring some volumes, which were recorded in the details of various families in the south who participated in the spring outing.
He wants to find a family affair for Yang Xiu's son Yang Xiao in this.
Yang Lihua's persuasion of Yang Xiu is undoubtedly correct, they can't marry with the Guanzhong Gate Valve, to put it mildly, the Guanzhong Gate Valve can't look down on Yang Xiu now, and they don't dare to have anything to do with Yang Xiu.
The southern family didn't dare, everyone knew that it was not a good thing to have a relationship with Yang Xiu.
So which family can marry Yang Xiu generously without worrying about being implicated?
Answer: There is only one, Lanling Xiao.
After checking the files, Yang Ming probably knew in his heart that there were fourteen daughters to be married in the Xiao family this year, ranging in age from fourteen to nineteen years old, and the specific appearance was unknown, which had to be checked by Yang Ming himself.
If he finds an ugly girl for Yang Xiao, Yang Lihua can't agree, after all, ugliness affects the genes of their old Yang family.
So he took a team of troops early and went to the station of the Xiao clan in Lanling.
The spring outing hosted by Yang Lihua back then, the control of the major families was all a black-box operation, but Yang Ming was completely on the surface, he just let everyone know his attitude.
I don't nod my head, don't mess around, and all carnal relations that occur without my consent will be regarded as peace.
The marriage of the family is a very big thing, and Yang Ming can't be cautious, even he himself relied on the spring outing to become in-laws with Hongnong Yang and Hedong Pei, so as to crush the second Yang to death.
The stations of the southern family are all in the east, and they are clearly distinguished from the Guanzhong gate valve station in the west.
Halfway through, in a camp with a strange style on the side of the road, a team of female horsemen suddenly came out, their clothing style was different from that of the Central Plains, they were wearing short shirts, and they were all short hair, with earrings on their ears, and their short hair was tied in a bun, which looked very strange.
Yang Ming curiously asked Du Ruhui on the side, "Is it Nanban?" ”
Du Ruhui nodded and said, "It's the slang people from Lingnan, and they actually came." ”
As he was talking, the female rider in the lead had already come towards Yang Ming, and when he got closer, the man began to look Yang Ming up and down with affection, that kind of red fruit gaze, as if he wanted to sleep with Yang Ming now.
Yang Ming knew that the slang people were open, but he didn't expect it to be open to this point? Do slang boys have to protect themselves when they go out?
"You are the King of Qin?" The short-haired beauty in the lead laughed.
Yang Ming stopped Pang Niu, who was about to step forward to reprimand the other party, and nodded: "The girl can speak Chinese?" ”
"I've been learning since I was a child, how is it? I'm saying that, right? The short-haired woman laughed.
What the other party said was still Guanzhong, Yang Ming couldn't help but be curious: "Who is the elder in the girl's family?" ”
"Father Feng Ang, my name is Feng Yuzhi," the short-haired woman kept turning her horse's head and stared at Yang Ming with interest.
Yang Ming said with a smile: "It turned out to be the daughter of Hanyang Taishou Feng An, the great-granddaughter of Mrs. Qianguo, who was disrespectful and disrespectful. ”
No wonder she is so fat, it turned out to be the great-granddaughter of Mrs. Xian, the daughter of Feng An, the leader of the Lingnan tribe, the policy of the Great Sui towards Lingnan is to govern slang with slang, and the local government affairs are handed over to Mrs. Xian and their branch, and the court does not ask at all.
How big is Lingnan in the Great Sui? Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, plus eastern Yunnan, the three and a half provinces are all under Feng An's control at the moment, and only Feng Ang can manage them.
Mrs. Xian has passed away, and Feng An, as the grandson of Mrs. Xian, is now helping the Great Sui to pacify Lingnan, and his power is no less than that of the four major governors.
In history, Feng Ang also had a great-grandson who was very famous, his real name was Feng Yuanyi, and later he followed his adoptive father's surname and changed his surname to Gao, which is the famous Gaolishi.
"Where are you going?" Feng Yuzhi asked.
Yang Ming quipped: "I won't tell you." ”
Feng Yuzhi smiled heartily: "If you don't tell me, I'll follow you." ”
"Then it's up to you to see if you can keep up," Yang Ming glanced behind him, then spurred his horse and ran forward.
Su Lie immediately led twenty people to stop in front of Feng Yuzhi, lest the other party really stick to King Qin.
Feng Yuzhi's status is very special, she was recognized as a righteous daughter by Empress Xiao, and no one in Guanzhong dared to offend others, after all, the Great Sui cannot be without Lingnan for a day, Lingnan cannot be without Feng Ang for a day, Feng Ang has thirty sons, and there are two daughters.
Feng Yuzhi didn't chase after him immediately, but rather strangely began to pull up his hair in a bun, and inserted a silver hairpin and a tooth comb made of ivory.
According to their slang customs, she fell in love with Yang Ming, changed her hairstyle, and called Xu Marry.
After tying his hair in a bun, Feng Yuzhi glared at Su Lie, and then led the female rider behind him to leave directly from the other direction, Su Lie was not at ease and kept following behind.
Then, all the female riders suddenly stopped, blocking Su Lie and the others, leaving Feng Yuzhi to ride alone, galloping towards the east.
The camp of the Xiao family has a total of more than 70 tents, which are very lively and full of people.
After seeing Xiao Jing, Yang Ming didn't hide it, and told him truthfully, Xiao Jing was immediately unhappy.
"Why does Your Highness bother with your mother's family? Yang Xiu is now a concubine, and he committed a big crime at the beginning, his son wants to marry our Xiao family, and my side will never agree," Xiao Jing complained.
After Yang Ming sat down, he said, "Uncle thinks, does Your Majesty care about the Xiao family or his brother?" ”
definitely didn't care about his brother, but Xiao Jing didn't dare to say this, so he could only say:
"Of course, Your Majesty values flesh and blood affection."
Yang Ming said with a smile: "Although they are concubines, they are also concubines of my Yang family, they can worship the Taimiao, but the Xiao family can't do it, my uncle is my own person, I will make it clear, the Xiao family will not be out of the country this year, and the eldest princess will not have a good time with you." ”
We have a queen on top, are you still afraid of the eldest princess? Xiao Jing asked, "Does the queen know about this?" ”
"The queen mother doesn't know," Yang Ming said with a smile: "Uncle, don't feel embarrassed, I won't do anything that is not good for the Xiao family, you just need to understand this." ”
Xiao Jing sighed: "If this matter is successful, I am afraid that the clan will complain a lot about me." ”
"That's okay, since my uncle is so embarrassed, then I'll just play my father and see what he means by being an old man," Yang Ming smiled.
Xiao Jing was instantly startled, and hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't." ”
The Xiao family doesn't look down on the Yang family, if this Nima lets Yang Guang know, it is impossible not to ignite.
Although the fourth Yang Xiu is already a concubine, there is one thing that cannot be changed, he is Yang Guang's younger brother, a father's younger brother.
What else can Xiao Jing say? Don't look at Yang Ming as his own nephew, across the humility.
"Alas...... If something happens, Your Highness will have to help me carry it? Xiao Jing sighed.
Yang Ming smiled and comforted:
"Uncle, don't worry, there are only benefits and no harms, and you don't want to think about it, can I do things that are not beneficial to the Xiao family?"
