Zhao Changhe didn't know what he had eaten for this meal. It was so delicious that he had no memory of the food. He only remembered that the rabbit was white, fat, trembling, and hot, just like the rabbit-shaped longevity peach on the table.
In the end, I didn’t know which one I ate.
Anyway, they are delicious.
But in the end that kind of thing was not done, it was neither the right place nor the right time.
Although he is said to be a "conqueror", he is actually alone and not in very good condition. At this time, Cui Wenjing has no time to take care of his own safety. How much dissatisfaction is hidden within the huge Cui family now? Is anyone trying to take advantage of it?
He committed the assassination when he was in a state of selflessness, and it is unknown whether the disaster will come back again.
It's okay to play with it for a while, but if you really want to do it, once it becomes sudden, you can go and exchange your experiences with Prime Minister Cao, but you don't do anything like this.
You still have to be patient... Once the wedding comes, there will be a group of elite members of the Cui family to protect the safety of the young lady.
I used to have headaches about the so-called main palace issue, but the current situation is not that big of a problem. The Cui family is now much less confident to compete for this position... But then again, even if we don't talk about the title, the issue of the wedding sequence alone is enough to cause a headache.
Already.
A loyal minister with such a big makeup would dare to compete with the emperor for a husband in court. If these women knew that they were married outside, I wonder if they would tear themselves into pieces...
However, Zhao Changhe felt that he might not have time to get married for the time being... Now that Huang was injured, he should gather the power of the Cui family and the Caobang to attack the Wang family's territory with lightning speed and completely eliminate this future trouble.
The pressure of the Hu people is always hanging on his head. It is really not the time to have fun. Well, anyway, Yangyang doesn't grow up so quickly, so he is still very cute...
When Cui Wenjing arranged various matters and slowly walked outside her daughter's boudoir, the couple were already sitting in the yard outside drinking tea like dogs. The first sentence Cui Wenjing heard was this: "
How many soldiers does the Cui family have now?"
Cui Wenjing was surprised that these two people were actually talking about this, so she stopped outside and listened.
The daughter's voice was serious: "There are more than 30,000 armored men and 5,000 or 6,000 war horses. If you count all the other people, you can pull an army of 200,000 people. Of course, according to legal principles, only a small number of these can be counted as ours, and we should be responsible for them."
They can be regarded as the soldiers and horses of Daxia Prefecture, but they are controlled by us in various ways... Well, we have to calculate the food and grass carefully, but I don't feel that there is much shortage..."
Cui Wenjing didn't know whether he should be happy that his daughter knew how to calculate the family fortune, or whether he should scold the dog for eating the inside and outside. In one sentence, all the family's wealth was revealed. But a few moments ago, he had just completed the task of handing back the military power of the states and counties.
The decision given to the imperial court doesn’t matter now...
Zhao Changhe has no idea about this number now. He doesn't think that a few thousand war horses are few, nor does he think that 30,000 with armor is not enough. On the contrary, this is very strong. An intuitive comparison, the Maitreya Sect claimed to be sweeping
There are millions of people in the south of the Yangtze River, but among these millions of people, those who can be called "armored" are only a few thousand at first, and at their peak, they are only about 20,000 or 30,000, and the qualified cavalry may be less than a thousand...
Personnel can be trained, but resources and equipment are difficult to produce, plus there is "not much shortage" of food and grass... This is the terrifying background of top families like King Cui, who can transform into a fighting force at any time in troubled times.
.
A long time ago, when Cui Yuanyang didn't know how strong Xia Longyuan was, he even missed the words "We may not be afraid of him." Cui Wenwei didn't think that the New Han Dynasty had any big strength. It was because their family was really fierce.
.Without the influence of supermodel strength like Yu Jing, they are really not afraid of anyone with normal strength.
As soon as the Wang family raised the flag, they encountered the Cui family of the same level who resisted desperately. It can be said that they were defeated. If it were another enemy, they would have been bulldozed and flattened. How could they not be able to defeat a mere Puyang in a few months?
This is also the reason why emperors choose to compromise and cooperate with them in most cases. It is also the first situation that Zhao Changhe must open. Once opened, I can instantly turn the chaotic situation into an advantage. On the contrary, if I am defeated by
When these families join together, the effects are directly opposite.
When Tang Wanzhuang was discussing with Xia Chichi a few days ago, she said that the relationship between Zhao Changhe and Cui Yuanyang two years ago is now a sign of great luck. Only Zhao Changhe can combine the Cui family, the Tang family, and the four other families.
The various forces of the Xiang Cult are all integrated together to clean up this collapsed and torn country.
Cui Wenjing did not enter for a while and continued to listen.
Zhao Changhe was saying: "Do you know the situation over there in the Yang family?"
Cui Yuanyang said: "It's true that we haven't communicated openly. No one has sent envoys on the surface. I don't know what's going on behind the scenes. Maybe I have to ask dad... No, don't always look for him!"
As she spoke, the little girl actually became alert: "If you want to ask me at another time, if you run out to look for him now, let's see if I don't care about you!"
Cui Wenjing: "..."
You are sick?
Zhao Changhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Your father is busy now. Let's get to know you a little bit first, and then just tell me what you know."
Cui Yuanyang muttered: "Although you are somewhat kind to the Yang family, this favor is based on the Lianshan Sword. Now that the sword is destroyed, this favor is meaningless. Even if you can promise to help them make swords, it will be useless.
Both you and Huangshang can promise to forge swords, but with your attitude towards the aristocratic family and Xia Chichi's status as the late emperor's daughter, Yang Jingxiu will never choose - in other words, if you become the emperor yourself, the Yang family still has some hope, let Xia Chichi
What are you doing for a long time..."
"Chi Chi is also a little kind to the Yang family. At this point, we can only say that our positions are fundamentally contradictory. Those small friendships can no longer determine anything." Zhao Changhe took a sip of tea and said calmly: "I don't intend to do anything to the Yang family.
The Yang family, like you, always has to make some distinctions."
Cui Yuanyang was very happy: "What is Brother Zhao going to do?"
"Currently, the enemy that the Han most needs to attack and destroy is the Wang family. It is impossible to point the finger at the Yang family first for the time being. That would be putting the cart before the horse. I need the Cui family to help me control the Yang family first."
Cui Yuanyang was stunned: "Don't we need to send troops to attack the Wang family? I have wanted to cause trouble for them for a long time."
"To be honest, what I'm afraid of is just that you will unite together. As long as the alliance between your families is destroyed, individually, the Wang family will already be dead bones in the grave in my eyes..."
"Although they were defeated in Puyang for a while, they still have quite a few soldiers and horses..."
Seeing Cui Yuanyang's unhappy expression as if she wanted to beat up the Wang family, Zhao Changhe couldn't help but reach out and pinch her face: "Then... just follow me."
Cui Yuanyang's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"Of course." Zhao Changhe said: "Before that, I will help you forge the sword... This is what I promised my uncle, and it is time for my family to be on the list..."
Cui Wenjing couldn't hold it back anymore and finally stepped into the courtyard: "Can it be cast directly?"
Cui Yuanyang: "...when did you come?"
Cui Wenjing said angrily: "I know you don't want me to take up your and your lover's time, so I deliberately went out without disturbing you, okay?"
Cui Yuanyang: "...If anything, I'm very happy that dad is here."
Cui Wenjing really didn't know how he could teach such a bitchy little bastard, so he just ignored her and turned to Zhao Changhe: "What do you need from the Cui family?"
"Help me send a letter to Beijing first? I have some plans to discuss with Chichi Wanzhuang."
Cui Wenjing nodded and said: "I was going to submit a report, so just write it down and I'll ask Yuan Yong to go there in person."
"Okay. I don't need much else. First of all, it needs to be enough fire to melt the broken sword. Secondly, it needs to be safe enough so that no one can disturb me."
"We are rebuilding the Qinghe River. If anyone dares to disturb us, I will never be the same as him!"
Zhao Changhe: "?"
Cui Yuanyang: "?"
Who said this "I"? Was it Cui Yuanyong who was standing here just now? So there is a reason why people talk about motherhood, right?
"Ahem." Cui Wenjing realized that he had lost his temper and quickly regained his composure: "You said that forging a sword requires Yuan Yong or Yuan Yang himself to awaken the original sword spirit. Is it enough to rely on Yuan Yang alone? Do you need Yuan Yong to work together?
?”
"It shouldn't be necessary. It just suits your purpose. It can be done by one person. It doesn't require much practice. Are you sure there is a fire? I don't think you are in this way. If it doesn't work, you have to ask Venerable Suzaku for help."
Zhao Changhe felt a little guilty when he said this. Suzaku was not suitable to leave the capital at this time. Fortunately, the impact of Qinghe's proximity was not too great. The key was that he didn't know whether Suzaku would tear Yang Yang apart...
Cui Wenjing burst into laughter: "Do you think our ancestors chose Qinghe to take root just to gain the reputation of an ancient family?"
Zhao Changhe's heart moved: "There is a secret realm here!"
Cui Wenjing stroked his beard and smiled: "Not only do we have it, but every family has it... It's time for you to see the true foundation of each major family. And I suspect that the secret realm here is of immeasurable value to you."
Cui Yuanyang leaned his chin on one side and drank tea sullenly. He knew that once this son-in-law started, he would do all kinds of things: you know what I'm thinking, I know what you want, and he was an outsider... He obviously knew the secrets of the family,
Why didn't you think of taking Brother Zhao secretly for a look first?
