On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 239 Meeting Lanling Again
Sometimes, choice often outweighs effort.

If you follow the right person, you can easily make a fortune, but if you are in the wrong team, no matter how great your contribution is, you will not be able to get the reward you deserve.

The crown prince fell out of favor, Yang Jian had already given birth to the idea of ​​Yi Chu, so naturally he wanted to cut off Yang Yong's wings.

Shi Wansui, as a prince and party member, went through hardships and escaped death, ranked first in military exploits, and was also praised by Yang Jian, but when he really implemented it, he was only rewarded with [-] yuan and worshiped as the leading general of the left.

Yang Jian didn't know that Yang Su had secretly turned to Yang Guang. In Yang Jian's eyes, Yang Guang was too weak compared to the crown prince Yang Yong.

He naturally had to cultivate influence for his good son Yang Guang.

Cui Che, as an important member of Jin Wang's party, his cronies such as Zhao Wen, Zhang Wu, Mai Tiezhang and others have all been promoted by leapfrogging.

Zhao Wen is the servant of the seventh rank of the official cavalry;
Zhang Wu is the fifth-rank chariot general;

Mai Tiezhang is from the fourth rank Shangyi Tong Sansi.

As for the specific duties, you need to wait for the arrangement of the Ministry of Officials.

This time the reward was a matter of joy and sorrow for several families. Yang Jian blatantly suppressed the prince's cronies and supported Jin Wang's party members.

It also made many people turn to Yang Guang one after another after the news came out, including Yu Wenshu, the general manager of Anzhou (now Qinzhou, Guangxi).

Of course, these are all things to follow.

After Cui Che and others took the order to thank them, they withdrew from the hall one after another. Shi Wansui and Cui Hongdu didn't even say hello, and went straight out of the palace with sullen expressions.

The rest of the generals, such as Lai Huer and Yu Juluo, left with Cui Che outside the hall.

As for Mai Tiezhang and Zhang Wu, Cui Che asked Zhao Wen to take them to the Yan State Mansion for resettlement, waiting for the Ministry of Officials to dispatch them.

Cui Che let the three of them relax, since Niu Hong, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, had an old friendship with him.

After watching everyone leave, Cui Che went to the harem to pay respects to Queen Dugu Jialuo.

But on the way, he met his sister-in-law, Princess Lanling.

Yang Awu's personal maid took away the eunuch and maid under pretext.

Everyone didn't dare to stay for a long time, for fear of hearing something that shouldn't be heard.

Obviously, Dugu Jialuo's killing of the Yuchi family can still deter the people in the palace.

"My minister pays respects to the princess."

Cui Che greeted first.

Yang Awu was silent for a long time, and then said:

"Duke Yan doesn't need to be too polite."

"Wei Chen retire."

After Cui Che finished speaking, he brushed past Yang Awu, but was stopped by the beauty behind him:

"Wait a moment!"

Cui Che turned around and looked at Yang Ah Wu suspiciously:
"Does the princess have any orders?"

Yang Awu pursed his lips, and under Cui Che's gaze, mustered up his courage and said:

"You have nothing to say to me?"

Cui Che sighed in his heart, he cupped his hands and said:
"May the princess find a good husband as soon as possible."

Cui Che is not an emotional idiot either, of course he knows Yang Ah Wu's affection for him, otherwise why would he be 19 years old, never married, and have been a widow for ten years.

But he didn't dare to face this feeling directly. Yang Awu loves Cui Che, and Dugu Jialuo can't do anything about it, but if Cui Che marries Yang Lihua, it's not enough, and he dares to play Yang Awu's idea. As a parent, who can bear this a little.

Yang Ah Wu blushed, and said in a low voice:
"You expect me to marry so much?"

Cui Che couldn't help being moved when he saw her delicate and pitiful appearance, but he hardened his heart after all, and said:
"This life is doomed, so why force it."

After finishing speaking, he took his leave and left, leaving only Yang Awu staring at his back alone.

When he came to the Queen's bedroom, Cui Che's expression had already returned to normal, and he respectfully saluted Dugu Jialuo.

Dugu Jialuo also repeatedly praised Cui Che for his loyalty to state affairs and for being able to share the worries of the emperor.

After sitting in the bedroom for a while, Cui Che bid farewell to Yang Lihua.

Leaving the imperial city, the couple got into the carriage, and Yang Lihua suddenly asked:
"On your way to the harem, did you meet Ah Wu?"

Cui Che did not lie to Yang Lihua, he nodded and said:
"Meet it."

Yang Lihua complained:

"I blame you for making my concubine and my younger sister separate. Every time I see me, Ah Wu will leave after sitting in the queen's bedroom for a long time."

Cui Che feigned anger and said:

"If you want to reunite with Princess Lanling, you can make peace with me."

Yang Lihua immediately hugged him tightly, wrinkled her nose and said:
"Don't even think about it in this life!"

The carriage drove slowly, and Yang Lihua asked curiously again:

"What did you all say?"

Cui Che answered truthfully:

"I wish her a happy husband as soon as possible."

Yang Lihua may have replaced herself as Yang Awu, and said softly:
"Cui Lang is really ruthless."

With that said, Yang Lihua said in a depressed mood:
"It's my concubine who is sorry for Ah Wu."

Cui Che held Yang Lihua in his arms and comforted him:
"This matter has nothing to do with you. Marriage is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. How can it be said that it is your fault that the two saints promised you to me?"

Yang Lihua didn't speak anymore, she lay quietly in Cui Che's arms, and she didn't enter the door hand in hand with Cui Che until the carriage arrived outside Yan Guo Mansion.

All the concubines had been waiting in the front yard for a long time, only Yuchi Chifan was recuperating in the bedroom because he just gave birth and couldn't stand the wind.

But Yuchi Chifan gave birth to a daughter who was carried by the wet nurse.

Cui Che held the wrinkled baby girl in her arms, and teased the second son in Miao Rong's arms from time to time.

Miao Rong gave birth in July this year and gave birth to a boy.

Seeing that he was bald above the eyes, without a single eyebrow, Cui Che smiled and said:

"Erlang is indeed a noble member of our Cui family."

Cui Che and the eldest son Bodhisattva both escaped the family genetic disease of eyebrow loss, but unexpectedly fell on the second son.

Cui Erlang who was sleeping was woken up, he clenched his fists and cried loudly.

Miaorong managed to put him to sleep, and asked Cui Che:

"Husband, can you think of a name for Erlang?"

Cui Che had been struggling with the second son's name since he received a letter from his family, and he has not gotten anything so far. He shook his head and smiled wryly:

"Let's call him Erlang first, and then give him a name when he gets older."

Everyone was not surprised, only the two daughters Cui Wenhui and Cui Wenyan got their names not long after they were born, and even the eldest son was about to be engaged, so he got the name Cui Qiji.

Cui Wenhui and Cui Wenyan were born in April last year, and they are now one and a half years old. Under Mu Xieli's teaching, they can call Cui Che grandpa in a childlike voice, which makes Cui Che very happy.

Unexpectedly, I am only 22 years old. Except for my stepdaughter Yuwen Eying, I have already had two sons and three daughters. It seems that I am destined to have many children and grandchildren.

Today's guests staying in Yan Guo Mansion, such as Mai Tiezhang, Fang Yanqian, Kong Yingda and others, thoughtfully did not disturb the reunion of Cui Che's family.

Cui Che first went to the backyard to visit Yuchi Chifan who was still weak.

Yuchi Chifan's face was still very pale. It is said that he encountered dystocia when giving birth to his daughter, but luckily the mother and daughter were safe.

Sitting in Yuchi Chifan's room for a while, Cui Che went to comfort Zhang Lihua, the wife and concubine in the mansion, and now she has not given birth to any children.
