On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 96
When Cui Zhaorong and his party came to Daxing City, Cui Che also went through the process of asking questions and offering appointments, and the wedding date will be three days later, on July [-]th.

After settling the beleaguered people, Cui Che did not stay at home to accompany Cui Zhaorong and others, but went to Wuyang Duke's Mansion, which was also in Chongrenfang.

Li Chong, Duke of Wuyang County, defeated the Turks in Hebei County and Mayi last year. This year, he offered a strategy to attack the camp and led [-] cavalry to defeat the main force of the photo shoot.

This kind of scenery was also hated by traitors and sycophants. Someone falsely accused Li Chong of treason against Yang Jian. Yang Jian was furious and conscripted Li Chong back to Beijing.

Clearly there was no real evidence, but only speculation, but Yang Jian still angrily reprimanded Li Chong and left him idle in Beijing.

"I never thought that the first visitor to my Duke of Wuyang's mansion would be you, Cui Zicheng."

Li Chong looked at Cui Che who came uninvited and said with emotion.

In the past two days, he has experienced the warmth and coldness of human relations. When he returned to Beijing to receive an honor last year, there was an endless stream of guests, and the house was always full. Now that he has moved into Daxing City, the newly built mansion has become deserted.

"I got two jars of fine grape wine, so naturally I want to find Duke Wuyang to get drunk."

Cui Che laughed and said that the two jugs of wine in his arms were actually bought from Hu Niang, who was selling wine, when he passed the wine shop along the way.

The two came to the garden and drank together in the gazebo. Li Chong didn't complain that Yang Jian had run out of bows, and Cui Che didn't say anything to comfort them. The two just drank one cup after another.

Cui Che's trip is to drink with Li Chong to relieve boredom.

And Yang Jian, who specially sent someone to watch Wuyang Duke's mansion, also soon learned the news of Cui Che's visit. Before he could say anything, Dugu Jialuo said with a smile:

"Others are afraid to avoid it, but Cui Che still remembers old acquaintances, so he is a very affectionate person."

Dugu Jialuo settled the matter with one sentence.

My husband knows that Li Chong's rebellion is purely fictional.

It's just that Li Chong has won many battles, and his prestige is too great. Yang Jian doesn't want to put him in Shuozhou to lead the army, and takes this opportunity to hide him temporarily.

If Cui Che was really shot to death with an arrow, without the status of a son-in-law, it is not certain whether it will be a blessing or a curse.

It is not a big mistake for the future son-in-law to value love and friendship. Yang Jian had no intention of blaming him, and with Dugu Jialuo speaking, he would naturally not summon Cui Che to the Daxing Hall to question him.

Wuyang Gongfu.

There were more than two wine jars scattered in the gazebo, and as the night was getting darker, Cui Che made an appointment with Li Chong to drink his own wedding wine in three days, Cui Che walked staggeringly, and was helped into the carriage by Zhao Wen who was waiting outside the mansion.

The carriage drove to Cui Che's Wucheng mansion. Brother Che opened the curtains, poked his head out and glanced at him as he sent him away, and then turned back to the mansion. It doesn't look like a 23-year-old young man.

Cui Che lowered the curtains of the carriage, leaving only a sigh.

Li Chong, governor of Shangzhu Kingdom, Shuozhou Governor, and Duke of Wuyang County, was laid off at home just because of trumped-up charges. This kind of experience also shattered Cui Che's joy and pride in being granted the Zhu Kingdom.

After all, Li Chong missed the appointment and did not catch up with Cui Che's wedding banquet. He died of grief and anger the day before Cui Che's wedding.

The Wuyang Duke's Mansion has not yet handled the funeral, and Cui Che cannot enter the mansion to express his condolences.

He went to the wine shop and bought two jars of wine, and sat in the gazebo at home to drink alone.

As the saying goes, drink to get rid of sorrow, but the sorrow in my heart can't be solved.

There is no so-called conspiracy theory about Li Chongzhi's death. He was emotional when he was a teenager, but he was still a staunch temper when he was an adult. This time he was scolded by Yang Jian for no reason, and he knew that the other party did it on purpose.

Cui Che felt very sorry for Li Chong. Maybe people in later generations would mention Yang Su and Zhang Xutuo when they talked about the famous generals of the Sui Dynasty. lips.

But if he hadn't read the history books carefully, who would have known that there was a young general in his early twenties who won three battles with the Turks, and in the last battle he broke through the Turkic camp with five thousand cavalry, forcing Khan to escape at night. .

He should have achieved greater achievements, but ended up dying of sorrow and anger.

From this, Cui Che thought of himself. In Yang Jian's reign, with his status as a son-in-law, perhaps he would not suffer from suspicion.

But what about after Yang Jian?

One said that the Li family should be happy, and more than a hundred members of Li Mu's family were executed innocently. If there was another sentence that the Cui family should be happy, would he, Cui Che, also lead his whole family to be slaughtered?

Yang Guang will not be merciful because of his in-laws. Li Min is the grandson of Li Mu's elder brother Li Xian, and he has never survived.

Even Yuwen Eying, who was entrusted by Yang Lihua to Yang Guang's care on her deathbed, was given to die at home.

With the bright moon hanging high, Cui Che drank two jars of wine and walked out of the gazebo.

On the eve of becoming the son-in-law of the Yang family, Cui Che looked at the bright stars in the sky and made up his mind, not to mention controlling his own destiny, at least he must have the power to protect himself and his loved ones.

On the twelfth day of the seventh month in the third year of Emperor Kaihuang's reign (583), before dawn, Cui Che's residence in Wucheng was already busy.

Cui Zhaorong directed the servants to put up lanterns and festoons, and she had to personally ask about everything before she could feel relieved.

Today's nephew got married, Cui Zhaorong was afraid that something would go wrong and Cui Che would be made fun of.

Old Madam Feng also got up early, before she had time to wash up, she hurried to the ancestral hall at home, chanting to the tablets of Cui Jishu, Cui Changjun and others.

Pei Le clapped in Cui Che's bedroom, cheering and saying:

"The adoptive father is getting married, and I have a adoptive mother!"

Cui Che was still very sleepy after drinking too much last night, so he hurriedly kicked this kid out, and seized the time to catch up on sleep, otherwise it would be a joke to fall asleep at the wedding.

After taking a nap for a while, the sky was slightly bright, and the sound of dawn from the Drum Tower was rippling, and Cui Che was awakened by Cui Zhaorong.

After washing, Miao Rong combed his hair.

In the past few years, this was Miao Rong's errand, but after today, I'm afraid it will have to be unloaded.

These days, Miaorong and Mu Xieli know a lot about Yang Lihua from Yuchi Chifan, they know that she has a virtuous personality, does not compete with others for favor, and has no jealousy.

And the story of Yang Lihua being able to fall out with her father for the sake of the bastard, the two have also heard a lot.

To have such a aunt for one's own child in the future, what extravagance do Miaorong and Mu Xieli have to ask for.

Under Miaorong's service, Cui Che wore a white silk singlet on his head, a black dress with a reddish black lining on the upper body, a black skirt and red shoes on his feet. She was already handsome, but with such a dress, people couldn't take their eyes off her.

The mansion was ready to welcome the bride, so Cui Che took a group of servants, maidservants and musicians dressed in joyful clothes to Princess Leping's mansion.

The procession to welcome the relatives was originally going to pass through the Wuyang Duke's Mansion, but the servants there were busy hanging white cloths and arranging the mourning hall.

Cui Che saw the music in front of and behind him, and the sound of festive gongs and drums, so he led the crowd to take a detour.

The people along the street looked at Cui Che who was on the horse and pointed and commented. The men were naturally envious and jealous, and the women were also rushing to see the handsome young man.
