Chapter 44
The fighting in Yecheng has subsided. Compared with the chaos in the northern city, Cui Che ordered Zhang Wu to maintain law and order in the southern city, and he had a peaceful handover with Wei Xiaokuan, and there was no disturbance.

When Cui Hongsheng left, he was still full of doubts, that Cui Che was obviously an important member of Yu Chijiong's party, and he had committed a lot of crimes, why he didn't look like a prisoner, but looked like a guest invited by Wei Xiaokuan to the handsome tent.

Full of doubts, Cui Hongsheng found his elder brother. At this time, Cui Hongdu had already hastily buried Yu Chijiong's headless body.

After hearing Cui Hongsheng's experience, Cui Hongdu pondered for a moment and said:
"Grand Wei is mature and prudent, and will never tolerate rebellion because of the so-called rare talent. I'm afraid that Cui Che's conflict with the prime minister's son may have other hidden meanings."

How cautious Wei Xiaokuan was, he didn't send troops in Heyang for a long time, he had to wait for the supervising army to share the merits, and he never participated in the siege and killing of Yu Chijiong, he was afraid of the high meritorious service.

With such a personality, he takes a different view of Cui Che, who has an old grievance with Yang Guang, and there is a lot to it.

"Could it be that he is the prime minister's secret son!"

Cui Hongsheng is not a fool, he can think it through after a little thought, exclaimed, and then asked in confusion:
"Then Cui Che is willing to take such a risk, what is he trying to do!"

Of course, it is impossible for Cui Che to receive this merit, after all, it is absolutely impossible for Yang Jian to start dealing with Yu Chijiong before the death of Emperor Tianyuan.

Prime Minister Yang is a loyal minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he has no intention of arrogating himself. Even the regent seat was forced to take it by people like Zheng Yi and Liu Fang.

"Picture a background."

Cui Hongdu replied.

Cui Hongsheng was puzzled and asked:
"Isn't the family background of the third house of Boling not high?"

Cui Hongdu explained:

"If he is only a governor or a county guard, he can naturally become an official with the county governor of the third house. After more than ten years of hard work, he can be an official. But if he wants to hold a high position in the court, as a subjugated person, he must You must seek the status of a minister in the hidden residence."

Everyone's surname is Cui, but they are not the same as Cui. Regardless of Cui You, Cui Zhongfang's father and son, or Cui Hongdu and Cui Hongsheng's brothers, they were given the surname Yuwen and belonged to Guan Long Xungui himself.

As for people like Cui Che who have subjugated the country, they will naturally have an invisible ceiling in the officialdom in the future. If they want to pierce it, they must have a special status.

For example, Feng Deyi, Cui Che's cousin, will become Yang Su's son-in-law in the future, but Cui Che dare not pin his hopes on finding a good father-in-law, after all, it is useless to just be hot on his own.

Cui Hongdu sorted out this matter in his heart, and couldn't help but admire the vision and courage of this young man of the same clan.

Cui Che had a conflict with Yang Guang and fled Chang'an on the third day after Emperor Tianyuan threatened to kill Yang Jian's family, which means that he most likely went to seek refuge with the Yang family during the most critical period.

Zheng Yi and Liu Fang were too dangerous to move forward, but Cui Che went to Longtan and Tiger's Cave in Yecheng.

He is both knowledgeable and courageous, and he manages the logistics for Yu Chijiong in an orderly manner, which shows his talent. No wonder Wei Xiaokuan regards this young man with special respect.

The most rare thing is that even if he was captured alive, he never took the initiative to reveal his identity to claim credit. It is even more extraordinary to be able to know how to advance and retreat at such an age.

After all, if he received this merit, let alone how Yang Jian would think, what would Zheng Yi and Liu Fang think?
Good guy, the two of us are afraid of danger, and we don't even want to go to the front line. You dared to go undercover in Yecheng at a young age, and you advertised it widely, you are noble!You are amazing!

In fact, there is another point that Cui Hongdu did not consider. The reason why Cui Che was persecuted by Cui Lu and refused to reveal his identity was partly because he was worried that the other party would be vicious, fearing that he would retaliate afterwards and kill him endlessly. up.

Of course Cui Che was wronged. He had done so many things for Yang Jian, but he could not be publicly commended. Yang Jian had to be given a chance to show his image of being broad-minded and cherishing talents.

But Cui Che also knew that if he was wronged for Yang Jian today, he would gain even more in the future.

Yang Jian had to remember this love no matter what.

Yang Jian has many faults, but before his old age, he was still a person who missed love. Otherwise, how could Sima Xiao be spared the death penalty in the future, and he was assigned as a happy household for more than 20 days. .

Cui Che clearly knew that there were only two window periods in the Sui Dynasty in order to break through the identity barriers of the Kanto people. One was Yang Jian's seizure of power, which happened now.

The other is Yang Guang seizing the heir, and he has to wait 20 years to succeed.

Cui Che couldn't wait for 20 years. If he missed Yang Jian's seizure of power, as a Kanto native, he would not have many chances in the future war against Chen.

During the Sui and Tang dynasties, there was a unique term called the Guanzhong standard. Especially in the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian rebelled because of Yuchijiong, and all parts of Hebei responded. Since then, he has been more prepared for the Guandong.

Even if Cui Che deliberately made friends with Yang Guang, it would be difficult for him to be of great use in the battle against Chen.

As we all know, Yang Guang was only the nominal commander in the battle against Chen. After all, no one with a foreign surname is suitable for the meritorious service of destroying the country. Wei Xiaokuan was afraid that the meritorious service would not be rewarded.

Therefore, Cui Che had no choice but to seize Yang Jian's opportunity to seize power, but he was only an 11-year-old boy, why did Yang Jian accept him as a minister of the hidden mansion to help him break through the barrier of identity.

Cui Che had to prove his worth, so Yecheng and his party came together.

Answering the doubts for his younger brother, Cui Hongdu said earnestly:
"I can walk around with him more in the future, this person is absolutely extraordinary."

At a young age, with courage, insight, and talent, he climbed up to a high branch and became a minister of the hidden mansion. Breaking down the barriers of identity, the future is bright.

While the Cui brothers were talking about Cui Che, Wei Xiaokuan also asked Cui Che about his doubts:

"Why are you so eager to improve?"

Cui Che met Wei Xiaokuan's scrutinizing gaze, and said calmly:

"The elder has a question, and he dare not hide it. Someone asked me this question the day before I fled Chang'an, and I told him about one thing.

"Four years ago, Che heard from his friend Dou Wei that the Lord of Shenwu County would use shooting screens to recruit his son-in-law, and Yang Xuangan, the son of Lord Qinghe County, invited me to go with him. In order to be a lady, Che practiced hard at home.

"However, on the day of recruiting relatives, I heard from Xuangan that only the sons of the Duke of the State were allowed to take the exam. Che felt humiliated, so he worked hard and studied hard day and night, hoping to gain fame and not be despised by others."

Wei Xiaokuan heard the words clearly, maybe it is because people are old, they like to support the backward, and there is no one left and right, Wei Xiaokuan encouraged:

"You will not waste your life, you must make a difference!"

"Wei Gong's expectation, Che will keep it in his heart."

Cui Che saluted solemnly.

After finishing speaking, he made another request to Wei Xiaokuan, let him go home tonight, and deal with those slaves who betrayed their masters.

Wei Xiaokuan has nothing to deny, he can sell a favor with a little effort, so why not do it.

He is very old, and Cui Che is too young, so it is impossible to expect him to repay the favor of today, but Wei Xiaokuan still has descendants, so who knows what will happen in the future.

Facing such an amazingly talented young man, why should he be stingy in favor.
