Chapter 1364 1364: Tired Workers (Part 1) [Ask a Leave](1/2)
"My son is not convinced."
Cui Xiong blatantly talked back to him.
The next second, the teacup exploded on his legs.
Cui Zhi's eyes were so sinister that they were horrifying: "Cui Houbai!"
Cui Xiong stood up from the ground and looked Cui Zhi in the eyes without any fear: "The father just asked his son who was hiding it for. Now he also wanted to ask his father, you are an insider from beginning to end?"
"You have known Baojun's identity is wrong!"
"If that weren't the case, why should my father ask this more?"
"Even your son is going to be played with by you?"
Cui Xiong initially tried his best to restrain his emotions and avoid the father and son from quarreling. However, after several problems, he became more and more angry as he talked about them. He could not hide his resentment, so he simply stopped hiding it.
Cui Zhi didn't say a word, wanting to hear what his son was going to say.
Cui Xiong said: "Who is she?"
Cui Zhi was broken by the three words, and laughed in anger, and said sarcastically: "What are you asking about this? Why, you can't stand it when you are played with by your father, and you can't stand it when you are played with by a woman of unknown origin?"
The atmosphere between the father and son was even more tense.
In the end, Cui Xiong took a step back.
"It's not always possible to be successful. My father openly supports the king of the country and secretly gives Kang Guo a good deal. He turns a blind eye. If he wants to keep the entire Cui family with this little favor, he will think Kang Guo too simple."
Cui Xiong knew that his father's plan and arrangement were nothing more than that - his father retired and he took office. Cui changed his family to the head. In the future, he would have two other elks to help him in the court, and all the old things could be turned on.
But, can it really turn the story?
Cui Xiong feels he can't turn it over!
My father has a close relationship with the gods, which is really difficult to separate. Moreover, Cui's size is huge, and it can move the whole body with one blow! There is not only the clan leader in Qi State, but other side branches are also mixed. If Kang State does not move the clan leader, he cannot move other side branches? After all, it is also a blood relative of the clan who breaks the bones and tendons. How can we distinguish clearly? One loss is all the damage.
Kang Guo's strength in this battle far exceeded expectations.
The allied forces of the southwestern countries had been fighting for less than a year.
This is not enough time for Shen Youli to manage Heyin.
"Hmph, you are pretty thoughtful. Cui didn't know when his son was so scheming. No matter how bad I am, I have eaten more grains than you for more than twenty years, so I don't have to worry about you..."
Cui Xiong's plan is not wrong.
It can even be said to be meticulous and thorough.
However, he didn't know Cui Hui's true position, nor did he know the existence of his grandfather Cui Xiao. Cui's connection with Kang Guo was much closer than Cui Xiong saw. This closeness allowed Cui to gain more time to change and calmly escape.
When it comes to this, Cui Zhi is a little annoyed.
His old Taishan was not his eyes to his son-in-law, and his nose was not his nose. He did not give him a good face during the period of house arrest. When he heard that Cui Xiong was sick, he immediately called Cui Zhi over to suppress the formation.
Is Lao Taishan afraid that his mother-in-law will regret happen to Cui Xiong?
When Cui Zhi was sure, Cui Xiong didn't say much.
"My son will ask her mother about her affairs."
My mother Cui Hui had a very good relationship with You Bao. Many times she was not like a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but like an old friend she had known for a long time. Cui Xiong used to think that the two were destined to be together, but the truth was far more complicated than he thought. His mother couldn't make sense, so he looked for Ermi.
There is always one that comes in handy for the whole family.
Cui Zhi watched his son bow and said he was a little high in his blood pressure.
But, still the same sentence-
The only qualified heir is Cui Xiong.
No matter how angry he was, Cui Zhi still had to pinch his nose and clean up the mess for the other party. The news of the assassination of the king of Qi State could not be announced truthfully, but could only say that he was too worried and had a sudden illness. He caught up with the juncture of Mei Meng's death in battle. Cui Zhi's thoughts changed and he had a perfect statement: "It can be said that the water in Xiaoxiang was broken, the mountains in Wanwei were tilted, the pearls were sunken, and the jade was broken, and the jade was broken."
The king lost his best friend and lost his soul.
In just a few days, the condition worsened and he passed away.
Cui Zhi appeared, and the guard general was naturally on his side as a disciple promoted by Cui. He was shocked by military power, and the news of the death of the king did not cause turmoil among the court officials. With the support of a group of ministers, Cui Zhi was responsible for handling the king's funeral and electing a successor.
"The Lord has just passed away, and the successor..."
Cui Zhi didn't want to get involved in the next thing.
But other officials don't think so.
Someone said: "Duke Cui, if there is no king in the country, there will be chaos."
Some people also have their own thoughts.
They wanted to choose an adult lord from the royal family.
Because the first lord has heirs under his knees, it is easy to attract criticism after he goes beyond the heirs to recommend others. Cui Zhi has no problem with support: "The country must not be without a king for a day, let alone the troublesome situation of internal and external troubles? It is even more necessary for the lord to stabilize the hearts of the subjects!"
Cui Zhi chose to pretend to be deaf and dumb about these topics.
If you really can't fool it, you will pretend to be dizzy.
He was bedridden because his mother-in-law died of illness. Now he is forced to stand up for the loss of the king. In addition, the king is still his ex-wife, so it is logical that he cannot bear the multiple blows and cannot afford to get sick. As the ministers have learned that Cui Zhi does not want to wade into this muddy water, so he can only send someone to explore Cui Zhi's words.
Cui Zhi may not join, but he must make a statement.
Whether they elect a young master or an adult royal family, Cui Zhi cannot express dissatisfaction. Otherwise, if they choose a candidate, Cui Zhi will jump out and say it will not work. That is not a cause of trouble? Cui Zhi also gave them a reassurance, whether the new master is the descendant of the first master or the other royal family members, and then continue to be the boss.
The current situation is special, and the corpse of the king has not stopped for too long.
However, Double Qi decided to help the spirit and be buried.
The ministers of Qi State also urgently arrested a royal family man in his thirties to succeed him as the new master. The new master was romantic at home and was almost stunned by the big pie falling from the sky. People sat at home and the throne came from the sky! Is there such a good thing in the world?
He hurriedly took office and immediately appointed the descendant of the first master.
When the king received the news, several male favorites with offspring wanted to fight for power and profit, and supported their daughters as the king of the country. They had an addiction to the regent husband from behind the curtain. However, the civil and military ministers of Qi State on the front line blocked the news of the death of the first lord, which led to the male favorites taking action, and the new master's candidate was determined. They had to be driven out of the royal court and protected with their respective daughters.
It is more like house arrest than protection.
The first thing the new master does to be in charge is to send someone to negotiate.
He said, "I won't fight this battle for now."
Before the peace talks had left the city gate, Kang State sent an envoy to pay tribute. The State of Qi was at the time of national mourning, Kang State temporarily stopped its attack on the State of Qi and focused on attacking the State of Qi's allies. The territory of Kang State was expanding every day.
The new owner regretted it just a few days after being launched.
When the newness of the king passed, all that was left was endless trouble. He thought he had picked up a big hole, but he didn't expect to get into big trouble. The State of Qi suffered heavy losses in the previous battle. Now he wants soldiers but no soldiers, no generals, no food...
How can I fight this battle?
Kang Guo wants to swallow the southwest?
It doesn’t take any effort to chew it.
The king wanted to use a slow-down strategy to surrender and show weakness to exchange for living space and time, and use his interests to stabilize Kang Guo. Give him a few years to recover and then he would plan other things. This idea cannot be said directly, and he had no choice but to come to Cui Zhi.
Cui Zhi still plays Tai Chi with his new main character.
Don't ask, he is so sick that he is on a brain strike.
The new master was turned away twice and was about to go to eat for the third time. When he saw the mourning messenger sent by Kang Guo, he immediately gave up the idea of visiting the door, and a feeling of being fooled in his heart.
There is nothing else, the messenger's surname is Cui, Cui from Cui.
Cui Zhi's second son, Cui Mi!
For a moment, the mourning hall was so quiet that the needle fell down. No matter whether it was civil or military, they all showed hatred, and they wanted to kill Cui Mi in front of Lingqian!
"This messenger looked so kind."
While saying that, he used his light to observe Cui Xiong's expression.
"I am indeed kind-hearted. I remember seeing him when I was holding a banquet at Mr. Cui's mansion. Speaking of which, Mr. Cui seems to have the same name as the envoy?"
Cui Xiong said without changing his face: "It's my brother."
Cui Mi bowed to Cui Zhi and bowed: "I've seen my father."
He said to Cui Xiong again: "I have met my eldest brother."
The civil and military officials of Qi State and the new master all had distorted faces.
It looks like swallowing a fly.
Cui Zhi and his son never mentioned Cui Mi's loyalty to Kang Guo!
The three Cui family and his son admitted their relationship openly in public, which made the others look different from each other. Cui Zhi's son joined Kang Guo but could not prove that Cui also joined Kang Guo? It is not new to have a long bet among aristocratic families. Both legs are on Cui Mi. Can Cui Zhi care about which lord he is loyal to?
Cui Mi doesn't care what other people's reactions are.
When he was burning incense and worshiping, other scenes flashed in front of him, and he felt quite emotional - he had seen more than a dozen different ways of dying the king of Qi, and also saw the future of her survival. Only in front of him, his eldest brother was safe and sound.
Cui Mi respectfully handed the incense to the eunuch and bowed again.
I have a thought in my heart to save the Lord of the Kingdom of Qi.
【Die fellow Taoist, I will not die.】
