Chapter 59
Since the Han Dynasty, one day off every five days has been a statutory holiday. Of course, this benefit is only for the official class, and the head of Guizhou, who works for people, has no statutory rest day.

If it was under the daily rest system, someone would temporarily take over Cui Che's work. Unless the drafting of the memorandum was really not in line with Yang Jian's wishes, Brother Che would not have to worry about being called back to the prime minister's office to work overtime at all.

But today is not a day off, otherwise Cui Che would not be on the same day as Yang Xuangan and Dou Wei.

Official holidays are roughly divided into two categories, namely, rest and holidays, and today is the winter solstice in the second year of the elephant (580).

When I was sleeping last night, there was a sudden heavy snowfall in Chang'an City. It was almost noon, and there were still snowflakes in the sky.

Brother Che had just woken up and was usually on duty, so he always had to respond in the morning, and he had to arrive at the mansion at exactly six o'clock in the morning, so he was insulated from laziness.

Now it is hard to get a rest day, and it is also an afternoon appointment with Yang Guang and others. I am afraid that I will lose the time to sleep soundly.

But because he was used to getting up early, Cui Che opened his eyes before Mao's hour.

This damn biological clock!
It's just that the wind and snow were blowing outside the house, and Brother Che curled up under the quilt forcibly until this time.

Yuchi Chifan had already boiled water for him in advance, and under the hand-in-hand instruction of the servant girl in Yang Xuangan's house these days, Cui Che no longer worried about her burning down his house.

After washing up, Cui Che put on a black fur coat, said goodbye to Yuchi Chifan, and went out against the wind and snow.

When they came to the appointed restaurant, they couldn't see other people. After waiting for a long time, Yang Xuangan, Dou Wei, and Yang Guang arrived one after another. They were all at home to worship their ancestors, which delayed the time.

It was only then that Cui Che remembered that he had forgotten to worship ancestors. The custom of worshiping ancestors during the winter solstice appeared in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it has long been popularized today.

But I didn't feel at ease, thinking that my grandmother would be prepared so that Cui Jishu and Cui Changjun would not be hungry.

It doesn't matter if you're really hungry, let your grandfather and father experience the hard life when they were herding sheep in northern Xinjiang, it's their fault.

The four of them warmed up the wine, raised their glasses to each other, talked about the characters, and the atmosphere was lively.

After drinking three rounds and eating five flavors, the ancients said that the winter solstice is as big as the new year. It is a day for family reunion, and everyone does not get together for a long time.

Cui Che watched Yang Xuangan and Dou Wei leave together, but heard Yang Guang beside him say:
"Will Zicheng go somewhere with me?"

Cui Che was slightly surprised, but did not ask any further questions. The two walked through the streets through the snow, and finally came to a fortified mansion.

"This is."

Cui Che was puzzled.

"The former Prince Qi's Mansion."

Yang Guang replied, seeing that the words "Qi Wang Fu" were no longer on the plaque, he sighed again:

"After Qi Wangxian died, this mansion was rewarded by Emperor Tianyuan."

Cui Che suddenly realized that this was once the residence of Qi Wang Yu Wenxian.

Yang Guang turned around to look at Cui Che, and asked:
"What does Zicheng think of King Qi?"

Cui Che guessed Yang Guang's intentions quite closely, and cooperated:
"The humerus of the country should be a virtuous king."

Yu Wenxian naturally deserves this praise. He is the fifth son of Yu Wentai and the eldest brother of Zhou Wu Emperor Yu Wenyong.

He served his mother with utmost filial piety, and loved his brothers. He came out of the town of Shu at the age of 16. He governed the place in an orderly manner. The people of Shu erected a monument to praise his virtue. .

Knowing how to advance and retreat, after the annihilation of Qi, he felt that his prestige was growing and his achievements were high, so he asked for an edict to release the power, and he already wanted to retire, and Yu Wenxian was only 33 years old at that time.

"The virtuous king?!"

Yang Guang pondered for a while, but then smiled:

"No, he was punished by Emperor Tianyuan."

There is bitterness in the smile.

Cui Che could only comfort him:
"Tian Yuan is just in a daze, Ah Cheng doesn't need to worry about it."

"I'm afraid even Zicheng himself won't believe this."

Yang Guang smiled bitterly and said:
"Father has the heart of going south, who does Zicheng think will be the commander?"

Cui Che remained silent, and didn't even give a guessed answer.

Cui Che and Yang Guang are well aware of the future candidates for the Marshal of the Southern Expedition.

Even the credit for destroying Yu Chijiong is difficult to award, let alone the credit for destroying the country of Nanchen.

Either Yang Jian will be in command to conquer personally, or he will choose one of the masters as the commander.

Yang Yong is bound to be excluded, and Chu Jun made such a great contribution, it is estimated that Yang Jian can't sleep well.

If Yang Jian went on his own, once he lost, it would be a huge blow to his prestige, and after the suppression of the three generals, Yang Jian's reputation will flourish, and there is no need to ask for the icing on the cake of the Southern Expedition.

Therefore, Yang Guang, as the second son, may be the most suitable candidate, and he can even support a force to check and balance the prince.

But after the crown prince succeeded to the throne, Yang Guang's fate can be imagined.

Even if Yang Yong can tolerate him, will Yang Yong's son follow the example of Tianyuan Emperor Yu Wenyun, who will never forgive him when his nephew suspects his uncle?

After all, this uncle has the power to destroy the country and has been fighting Yang Yong in court for many years.

"I think Zicheng knows the answer."

As Yang Guang said, he held Cui Che's right hand and said sincerely:
"I don't want to imitate Yu Wenxian. He doesn't fight or grab, but he still can't escape death. Can Zicheng help me? If I succeed, I am willing to share wealth and honor with Zicheng. I will live up to today's righteousness. This is a heartfelt statement."

Hearing this, Cui Che put his left hand up and said with emotion:

"Ah Chung treats each other with sincerity, how can Che be afraid of death, he is willing to praise the painting for Ah Chung, in order to seek the position of son, if things fail, he can still be a friend, even if he dies, he will have no regrets!"

Cui Che has no choice at all, his friendship with Yang Guang is doomed to fail in front of Yang Yong.

What's more, if you follow the wrong person, the more you do, the better. In most cases, the more miserable the end will be.

Yang Guang was very excited when he heard the words. Under the snow, he and Cui Che held hands tightly and looked at each other. There was only enthusiasm in the eyes of the two, without impurities, as clean as the snowflakes that fell on them.

"If I can beg for Cui Danong's life with the merit of offering advice, I know that Zicheng will not let me down!"

In Yang Guang's view, Cui Che was able to give up his high-ranking position just to save Cui Danun. Brother Che's brother Shangyi's people were well established, at least Yang Guang believed it, otherwise he would not have confide in Cui Che.

Ever since Yang Jian came to power, Yang Guang has been coveting the position of the son of the prince for a long time. It is not clear whether it is because of Yu Wenxian's deeds that the rabbit died and the fox was sad.

That's right, Yu Wenxian and Yu Wenyong were born two years later, Yu Wenyong is the son of heaven and orders the world, but Yu Wenxian only wants to protect himself, and it is impossible.

Whether to be Yu Wenyong or Yu Wenxian is not a multiple-choice question for Yang Guang at all.

It is true that Yuwen's family is still the world today, but no one really believes that Yang Jian will be Huo Guang.

oh!Except for Yang Lihua, she really believed.
