On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 62 Pei Xiu Comes to Beijing
Yang Jian resigned as Xiangguo and Shuli, but anyone who is familiar with history knows that the resignation is just an inherent process, so you can't be too eager.

At the end of the year, Cui Che was ordered to draft a document to summon Yang Yong, the son of the prince, to Beijing, exempting him from being the governor of Luozhou and the governor of Tokyo Otsuka, and being promoted to Shangzhu Kingdom and Da Sima, leading Shi Yuzheng to manage the palace guards.

When the usurper is not usurped, the palace guard is placed in the hands of the son, so it is naturally more credible than outsiders.

During this period, Cui Che was invited to visit Cui Xuanyou and Cui Hongdu successively. As the elders of the clan, the two also gently advised Cui Che that they could be friends with Yang Guang, but they should not get too close.

Yang Yong's position as the eldest son is too stable in the eyes of the world. He not only has the status of the eldest son, but also demonstrated his talent during the guarding of Luoyang, Tokyo.

Looking at the comparison between the two brothers, it can be seen that Yang Yong is in a high position, and Yang Guang has not even lost his official position.

13 years old is not young, and Gan Luo was Shangqing at the age of 12, and he was more than the prime minister.

A few days ago, Yuan Xiaoju, the father of Yang Yong's concubine, was worshiped as the governor of Xiaozhong again, and he was enthroned in the Zhu Kingdom and granted the title of Duke of Xunyang County.

All of them show Yang Jian's favor to his eldest son.

Cui Xuanyou and Cui Hongdu had good intentions. From their point of view, Cui Che boarded Yang Guang's boat, and Yang Jian's reign naturally went smoothly, but when Yang Yong came to power, it would be a disappointment.

What's more, with the status of the minister of the hidden mansion, he can be reused by Yang Jian's subordinates without Yang Guang's help, so why bother with the future of the rest of his life.

Cui Che thanked the two elders for their kindness, but remained as close as ever to Yang Guang.

On December 27th, Cui Che, who was on duty, went back to his home and changed into a normal uniform, and took Yuchi Chifan to the outskirts of the city.

Yuchi Chifan's hair has been growing for nearly two months, and it's still relatively sparse, but at least he can't see his bald scalp, and he dares to go out even with a turban on.

Hearing that Cui Che's aunt was coming, Yuchi Chifan was very flustered, and didn't know how the elder named aunt, who was actually no different from his mother, would think of him.

"Don't worry, my aunt is very kind."

Cui Che sensed Yuchi Chifan's uneasiness, held her hand tightly, and comforted her.

However, the kind aunt Cui Che spoke of raised the wooden stick in her hand after seeing Cui Che.

"Auntie! If you have something to say, speak up, I will be on duty tomorrow! I can't be beaten!"

Cui Zhaorong was startled when he heard the words, then threw the wooden stick and said in a hateful voice:

"I'll hit you again when the first day is off!"

The anger of being deceived and fooled by Cui Che had accumulated in Cui Zhaorong's stomach for half a year, so how could he let him go so easily.

Cui Che heaved a sigh of relief, and hurried forward to sell it to his aunt, not forgetting to glance at Pei Xiu, his eyes seemed to be complaining: It's been half a year, why haven't you persuaded my aunt for me.

Pei Xiu turned a blind eye, he was still waiting to see Cui Che get beaten, it didn't make sense that his accomplice was beaten, but Cui Che, as the mastermind, could escape the crime.

Miao Rong's eyes fell on Cui Che, hesitating how to greet him, she didn't know if Cui Che agreed to accept her as a concubine, whether it was a sincere wish, or just a means to deceive Yu Chijiong.

After all, the so-called taking concubines and saving seeds was all because Brother Che secretly told Pei Xiu to encourage Cui Zhaorong.

But Mu Xieli was looking at Yuchi Chifan who was beside Cui Che, she didn't care if Cui Che really admired her, she only hoped that she could give birth to a son and a half in the future and enjoy the glory.

After coaxing Cui Zhaorong, Cui Che waved to Miaorong and Mu Xieli, and they rushed over immediately.

After some sweet words, Cui Che introduced Yuchi Chifan to them. Cui Zhaorong learned that it was a gift from Yang Jian, so she also accepted her, and did not forget to give her a pair of jade bracelets.

Miaorong, Mu Xieli and Cui Che also received such gifts when they made an engagement.

"Ache, let me introduce you to an elder in the clan."

Pei Xiu pulled Cui Che out of Yingying Yanyan, and walked to the front of the carriage at the back of the line. There was already a middle-aged man in his thirties.

The man was wearing a Confucian uniform and stroking his long beard. Before Cui Che could see him, he smiled and said:
"Little friend, with a big name, is as familiar as thunder, and I have known each other for a long time, and today I finally got my wish."

Cui Che knew that he must be Pei Ju, so he bowed and said:

"Boy Cui Che, I have met Mr. Pei. Mr. Pei can be called Zicheng. We will work with the family in the future. If you have any doubts, please give me your advice."

"I, a scholar in the Kanto region, should be in the same boat, support each other, and assist the prime minister with all our strength."

Pei Ju nodded and said.

He didn't stay for long, he was recruited by Yang Jian, and now he is rushing to see the prime minister's mansion.

After Cui Che bid farewell to Pei Ju, he also urged everyone to return home. He wanted to ride with Miaorong and Mu Xieli, but was called by Cui Zhaorong into her carriage.

I was able to hide from the wooden stick temporarily, but the reprimand was still indispensable.

After being criticized, Cui Che didn't dare to smile playfully, so he had to bear it with his head down. After talking for a long time, Cui Zhaorong finally gave up and asked again:

"Didn't you forget to sacrifice during the winter solstice?"

Cui Che nonsense said:
"Sacrifice, sacrifice. On the day of the winter solstice, I made a special trip to put all kinds of meat and vegetables, and my grandfather even praised me in a dream the next day."

"It's hard for you to have a heart."

Cui Zhaorong stroked Cui Che's head, his eyes were full of kindness.

"Can my aunt stop beating me, otherwise next time my grandfather asks me in a dream, I'm afraid I'll miss it."

The hand that was caressing lightly patted Cui Che's head, Cui Zhaorong said with a smile:

"Then I'll beat him harder. Che'er must tell his father about this and let him dream about it with me."

Cui Che's face turned bitter, well, it seems that the stick can't escape.

Back in the courtyard, all the servants and maidservants were naturally busy cleaning the dust. Yuchi Chifan had already moved out of Cui Che's bedroom. Speaking of ghosts, it is not safe to meet thieves who climb over the wall.

Now the mansion is bustling with activity, Cui Che assigned two maidservants to serve her, and then found another room in the main courtyard.

Mu Xieli has also moved into the main courtyard, and his status has already been settled, so there is no need to avoid suspicion like before.

When the cooks were preparing dinner, Pei Xiu approached Cui Che and told him about her plan to apply for an official position in Hedong County.

"Alright, you stay in Hedong for the time being and serve as an official, and come to Chang'an after Yang Ying opens the mansion."

"I just don't want to ask you to take care of everything, so I stay in Hedong!"

Pei Xiu emphasized her thoughts.

Cui Che laughed and said:
"It has nothing to do with me. Yang Ying has mentioned you several times. It was his idea to recruit you into the mansion in the future. Before that, you were not afraid of being involved and worked hard for me. He has seen you and knows your character is pure. It’s another big clan from Hedong, so they naturally want to recruit them.”

This point Cui Che is really not nonsense, Yang Guang really intends to conquer Pei Xiu after opening the mansion.

"Really? You can't lie to me."

"Why am I lying to you? I will take you to drink with him when I am on duty tomorrow. He has long wanted to get acquainted with you."

　Please collect and recommend tickets, thank you everyone.
