The prince is very fierce

A chaotic war in Tangjiazhuang has temporarily subsided, but the aftermath is unlikely to dissipate.

Yuyang County, Pinggu County.

The Pinggu Taolin Sea, which stretches for nearly a hundred miles, is located between the mountains and snow ridges, with no end to the east and west and no borders to the north and south.

Fifty miles away from the Peach Blossom Sea, on the coast of Jinhu Lake, the residence of Cui family of Youzhou in "Xiao Lu Cui Wang Li" was built here.

As one of the five great clans, the Cui family's incense inheritance is not much shorter than that of the Xiao family. Speaking of ancestors, they can count them back to the Spring and Autumn Period. However, Youzhou belonged to the State of Yan during the Spring and Autumn Period, and the presence of the State of Yan was very sparse among the vassal states. In fact, there were only a few ancestors of the Cui family that could really be used.

The Cui family of Youzhou has been passed down for generations, and they follow the golden mean. They don't fight, don't rob, and don't make enemies. Whoever becomes the emperor assists which family. After several dynasties have changed, their status has not changed much. Among the five great clans, they have always been ' Representative of the good old guy.

However, as aristocratic families grow and develop, none of them started their careers by being a mere moron. On the surface, they may be doing nothing, but behind the scenes, there must be an inhumane and dark side. If the law of the jungle is not the law of the jungle, why should others give up the position of one of the five major surnames? deliver? After all, they climbed up by stepping on the mountains of corpses of other families, even the royal family.

Let’s talk about contemporary times. The dragon locking Gu puzzle that almost removed the hands and feet of King Su’s lineage was the work of the Cui family and the current emperor’s conspiracy. Farther away, there was the assassination of Ning Yu and the robbery of the queen, etc.

Being able to do these things is enough to show that among the five great families, the Cui family is almost the most utilitarian. Everything they do is to surpass the Huainan Xiao family, become the leader in the court, and even the best family in the world.

However, after the locking dragon Gu puzzle was solved by Xu Buling's method of "taking advantage of the enemy", "attacking the east and attacking the west" and "secretly trapping Chencang", the Cui family was obviously left out by Song Ji. They are currently in a period of silence and have not caused any waves. .

For a wealthy family like the Cui family, Youzhou and even the entire world are just a small fish pond at their feet. They occasionally look down at it, but they never take it to heart.

However, no matter how detached from the world, his family is in Youzhou, he only has one life.

Ten years ago, when Tie Ying was hunting deer, the Cui family, as one of the pillars of the imperial court, took action against the Zhu family, who was also in Youzhou. Although it was just a trivial incident that did not even alarm the family head, but the son came to take revenge, it would not be unreasonable. Because the Cui family thought it was a trivial matter, the Cui family still invited Situ Yuejin, the number one person in the Tiannan martial arts world, to come to their home as a guest, just in case something unexpected happened.

At noon, Cui Huaiyu, the eldest uncle of the Cui family, burned incense and made tea in the waterside pavilion along Jinhu Lake to entertain two guests.

The waterside pavilion is built near the lake, and a harp girl plays music next to it. On the road along the lakeshore, you can see the young master of the Cui family, running to the distance to take a look at the waterside pavilion.

In front of the tea table in the waterside pavilion, Situ Yuejin, the 'Sword Leader', put his elbows on his knees and sat on the floor with a bold posture. He held a wine bowl in his hand, his nose was red in the wine trough, and he was speaking boldly:

"...This Xu Bu Ling is really powerful. I thought he would be at least a draw with Song Ying, but I never thought of knocking Song Ying out with random punches. The younger generation is to be feared, the younger generation is to be feared..."

Titles such as Sword Master, Sword Master, and Gun God are the highest honors that people in the world can obtain. It is even harder to win in martial arts competitions. Their gold content can be judged from the reputations of the three sword masters: Zhu Coushan, Lu Baiming, and Zhu Liu. I can get a rough idea.

The title of Sword Master changed hands three times in ten years, and Xue Chengzhi and Chen Chong have been fighting for the title of Spear Master for many years without any results. Now that Xue Chengzhi has fallen, Xu Buling has appeared again, and it still has not been decided.

As for Dao Kui, it had fallen on Situ Yuejin twenty years ago, and no one else had ever taken over.

Situ Yuejin is only in his early fifties now. Since his early thirties, he has become the leader of Dayue Swordsman, and no one can compete with him until now.

The storytellers in teahouses and restaurants told the most about the deeds of the world, that of Situ Yuejin. What about ‘chasing Kun Yunzi with one sword’, ‘going straight up Wudang Mountain with one sword’, ‘breaking down Dongting Lake with one sword’ and so on.

The Tiannan Thousand Blades Sect was originally a little-known sect in the world. After Situ Yuejin came out of the mountain, he used a nine-ring knife to cut the Thousand Blades Sect from south to north, from east to west, and cut the Thousand Blades Sect into pieces. He is now a top sect alongside Liuhe Sect, and his fiery and heroic temper is well known to everyone.

Unlike Chen Daozi and other famous figures in the world, Situ Yuejin was born in the grassroots and had a strong sense of business. Sitting in the Cui family's reception area in Youzhou, he was spitting, slapping the table and glaring without any trace of Wu Kui. demeanor.

The world has long been accustomed to this. Situ Yuejin has this kind of character, and Cui Huaiyu didn't show any dissatisfaction, just talking and laughing.

Next to Situ Yuejin, Song Ying, who had just arrived from the Tang family, still looked a little gloomy. After listening to Situ Yuejin's comments, Song Yingcai looked at Cui Huaiyu and said:

"Mr. Cui, this time Song was ordered to come to Youzhou to arrest the gangsters in Dayinglou. Prince Su made trouble for no reason, causing the traitor Zhu Liu to escape, and Tang Jiao was also killed on the spot. Such a serious mistake, Prince Su would If we don’t give an explanation, how will our Criminal Investigation Department act in the future?”

Cui Huaiyu nodded slightly with a slight smile: "Prince Su's move is a bit arrogant, but he is using the pretext of revenge for Ning Yuhe, and has nothing to do with the Yinglou rebels. Mr. Song's ginseng For him, the Holy Spirit can only give him a few scoldings, which is not painful."

Cui Huaiyu is the younger brother of Cui Huailu, the imperial censor, and one of the two backbones of the Cui family in Huainan. With the in-law relationship of Empress Cui, the Cui family has a close relationship with the current emperor. Song Ying is the emperor's confidant, united front with the Cui family, and her words are not meaningful.

Song Ying suffered a loss at the Tang family and messed up the case. It would be difficult for him to report to the emperor when he returned. He said in a deep voice:

"I have reported Xu Buling. The emperor can do nothing about him. I will give the emperor a letter of divorce and ask for permission to bring Xu Buling back to the capital. The emperor will personally ask about the reason. What do you think, Mr. Cui?"

Cui Huaiyu hesitated a little when he heard this. He naturally understood what Song Ying meant. The current emperor and the lineage of Prince Su were secretly strangers. He said that Xu Buling would be taken to Chang'an for questioning, but once Xu Buling entered Chang'an City, he would never get out in this life. No matter how open-minded Song Ji was, he would never let the hostage go back again.

Now Xu Buling openly disrupted the court's investigation and privately killed the "good people" who were loyal to the court. Taking this opportunity to let Xu Buling go to Chang'an to explain his motives is indeed a way.

No matter whether it works or not, it can always disgust Prince Su. Do you have the guts to disobey orders when you are in the wrong? Then continue to explain why you dare not go to Chang'an.

Cui Huaiyu thought for a while and said softly:

"This is a matter of great importance. Let's ask the emperor first. But even if the emperor allows it, it will not be easy to take Xu Buling back."

Song Ying was waiting for this sentence. He raised his hand and said, "I am writing to the emperor. However, the people I brought to Youzhou this time are not enough to deal with Xu Buling and potential threats. Can Mr. Cui help me?"

Cui Huaiyu knew that Song Ying came here to borrow people. After thinking about it, he looked at Situ Yuejin:

"The thief Zhu Liu was injured in the Tang family. I don't think he will come to the Cui family again. Can Mr. Situ help Mr. Song?"

Situ Yuejin has a very good relationship with the court. His younger brother and son are all serving in the court. Naturally, he raised his hand:

"As long as the emperor agrees, I will naturally do my duty."

Hearing this, Song Ying felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief...
