Tome of Troubled Times Chapter 52: Cui Yuanyong

The waiter and the shopkeeper were also killed on the spot, and they were relieved of the catastrophe of a broken arm. All the drinkers had fled. Zhao Changhe looked around and curled his lips: "Just now, someone said they wanted to treat me to a drink when they saw me. They ran faster than a rabbit."

He directly went to get the non-toxic meat and wine that he had eaten from other people's tables, sat in the middle of the wine shop and ate it up, treating it as that person's invitation.

Clear laughter came from outside: "There are fights in the rivers and lakes, corpses are lying on the spot, who would dare to sit here and drink. How about I treat you?"

Zhao Changhe didn’t even raise his head: “Aren’t you, Mr. Cui, a serious person?”

Cui Yuanyong sat across from him and said with a smile: "Maybe not."

"So who is inviting whom now? Our kids used to enjoy the meal, but they are indeed not serious people." Zhao Changhe poured him wine casually: "Where is your sister? Why are you the only one? Invite her. Just have a meal, it seems a bit weird to invite you."

Cui Yuanyong smiled slightly: "Why, are you interested in her?"

"No need, I'm not interested in fools." Zhao Changhe rolled his eyes: "But no matter how stupid you are, she is still a cute little girl who looks good on you. You are almost as handsome as me. I watched more Not happy."

Cui Yuanyong laughed dumbly and said: "I think you are conflicted because I seem to have some friendship with Yue Hongling, right?"

Zhao Changhe chewed the beef, looked Cui Yuanyong up and down for a while, and suddenly smiled: "I dare not say whether you like her or not, but I know she won't like you, so there is nothing to resist."

Cui Yuanyong was a little curious: "Oh? Why are you so sure? Because you think the person she likes is you?"

"No." Zhao Changhe shook his head: "Her heart is in Jianghu, and she doesn't know when she will feel the desire to return home. In short, she will not belong to anyone now, no matter? Meng Yao!? br/>

Cui Yuanyong smiled: "Why do I think you are the same? No matter Xia Chichi or Yue Hongling."

Zhao Changhe said expressionlessly: "If the person who knows me so well is your sister, maybe we can still chat. What do you want to do by knowing me so well? I heard that your family often has that kind of custom..."

Cui Yuanyong looked into Zhao Changhe's eyes and couldn't tell whether he agreed with his judgment or was just perfunctory. Cui Yuanyong did not go to the bottom of it, but just smiled: "That kind of custom is not limited to aristocratic families. In fact, it is stronger in many cottages. Perhaps the leader of the village is familiar with it."

Zhao Changhe: "...grass."

Cui Yuanyong finally raised his glass and signaled: "This is the first time we meet, this is Cui Yuanyong."

"Nice to meet you." Zhao Changhe also raised his glasses and clinked them to show that they were actually friendly.

He had planned to let Yue Hongling introduce him before, but he didn't want to create tension with anyone. These aristocratic families are related to the future of his fake prince and the decryption of the background of the world. He still hopes to have a good exchange with them.

Especially this guy doesn't seem to be annoying. The gentleman's battle with Yue Hongling, up to the point, they all showed sympathy for each other. Afterwards, they thought that Yue Hongling had accidentally been caught by the bandits, and he came to save her because of her injuries. After that, she never made a big mouth to spread the word that Mrs. Yazhai was Yue Hongling herself... At present So far, Zhao Changhe has a pretty good impression of him.

And Cui Yuanyong helped him shoulder the task intentionally or unintentionally... He tied all the people in Beimang Village to the Yamen of Mangshan City that night, announcing that this group of gangsters who had dominated for a while had been wiped out by the government, and the local government had made a great contribution. .

Although this incident may make people think that Zhao Changhe fell in love with the Cui family, and that killing Fang Buping was a precursor for the Cui family, but in the same way, the Cui family took down the "mastermind", and the Blood God Sect and even the four Xiangjiao's eyes will mainly fall on the Cui family. If others want to deal with Zhao Changhe, they have to worry about the Cui family's attitude.

Throughout this trip, it was all done by rats, and I didn’t see a few decent people, so that had something to do with it. So far, the fake prince thing only exists in the minds of himself and Xia Chichi. Others may not think so. In fact, it is the Cui family that serious people are worried about now. This is the truth...

For now, since it is known all over the world that he started from Beimang, his location is clear. If others want to block him, they can always catch fish by blocking the main roads around Beimang, so there are many thorns along the way. But as the pace goes further, it becomes more difficult for others to locate. If Cui Yuanyong helps to cover up one or two things, then there will be no need to be as tense as in the past few days. Seeing a beggar and a waiter are all nervous. Yes, to be honest, I can't live this kind of life.

If I hadn’t read a lot of martial arts novels and paid attention to these types of routines, I might have gotten into trouble long ago...

So this is not actually the "first meeting" for everyone. The brother and sister have been hanging out behind each other for several days. Zhao Changhe has seen Cui Yuanyong's face so many times behind his back. I don’t know why I haven’t come to communicate with you, but I just came here for a drink today.

The two clinked a glass and drank it each. Cui Yuanyong took out a silk scarf and wiped his mouth leisurely: "Aren't you surprised why we haven't communicated with you for a few days, watching you fighting wits and bravery all the way? It didn’t show up until now.”

Zhao Changhe looked at his silk scarf and couldn't help but twitch his mouth. He could only say: "I'm really curious. What are you thinking about?"

Cui Yuanyong sighed: "If I say it, just to let my roommate learn the tricks of Jianghu, will you think I am lying..."

Zhao Changhe's mouth almost went crazy, and he said after a while: "I think it's true."

Cui Yuanyong laughed: "It's indeed true. I took her out and never encountered any trouble. The only trouble I encountered was when you set up a roadblock and robbed us. In the end, you didn't intercept us and let us go. Let’s go. We had a good impression of you at that time.”

"...It turns out those two passers-by are you. You have forgotten what you look like."

"In this generation of men in my clan, there is only one sister... She has been loved by everyone since she was a child. She has never seen the dangers of people's hearts and the evil of the world. She is innocent and innocent. She has excellent qualifications. She didn't want to practice hard, so she was left alone. No one was willing to say anything harsh to her. This time, she ignored my advice and secretly attacked the leader of the Zhao village at night and was captured. Fortunately, the leader of the Zhao village was called a bandit, but he was actually a gentleman. , It’s her luck, otherwise it would be an unbearable lesson.”

Zhao Changhe lowered his head and sipped his wine: "It's true... I'm a bit stupid..."

"This time, the leader of the Zhao village was just and let her go. Afterwards, she was questioned by the helmsman. Her life was hanging by a thread. She was dying of anxiety." Cui Yuanyong smiled and handed her over: "I feel like she has grown up overnight. Master Zhao, this is really an important growth experience for her in her life. Cui would like to express her gratitude."

Zhao Changhe could only say: "It shows that she has a pure nature... Zhao also has to thank her for the elixir."

"It's true. Although my sister-in-law is a little spoiled, she has always been kind in nature." Cui Yuanyong said: "So when she saw you going out alone in Beimang, you seemed to be a little weak, so she kept asking me to protect you. You. Then I told her, why should anyone protect her when a tiger descends from a mountain or a dragon enters the sea? If it were you, she would be quite honest."

Zhao Changhe: "..."

Cui Yuanyong drank another glass of wine and sighed: "Do you know why I came to see you today without taking her with me?"

Zhao Changhe shook his head.

"Because she has seen you go through so many twists and turns along the way, and knows that she has met her countless times and is about to die, but you have overcome all evil spirits and monsters, just like a **** descending to earth... I feel that her eyes have changed a little, and I'm afraid if she continues to look at you like this It’s not that she has gained experience, she will have something else... So I asked her to take her home, and she even lost her temper with me. "

Zhao Changhe coughed dryly, lowered his head to drink and said nothing.

The Cui family has several great masters in the world. Cui Yuanyong is also the eighth level of Xuanguan, the third level of Qianlong, and the most popular person in the world. As a result, the little girl in the family looked at a wild man who was only on the third level of the entrance hall and thought it was like a **** descending to earth... Thinking about it, Cui Yuanyong is really old-blooded, but Zhao Changhe has done nothing wrong and is still the benefactor of the little girl. It can't be cut, so I have to help.

Cui Yuanyong really felt that none of the big grievances were as unjust as him. At this point, he finally sighed: "Since the little sister has gone back, Cui also thinks that he should sit down and have a drink with Brother Zhao. Let's make friends. As a friend, I also asked Brother Zhao what his plans are for the future."

Zhao Changhe asked: "Could it be that the Cui family really wants to recruit me?"

Cui Yuanyong shook his head: "Brother Zhao is not a subordinate to others. This makes no sense... What we want to know is what is the relationship between Brother Zhao and the head of Tang Dynasty?"
