Bastards

After listening to the long story, Cui Yu saw his grandmother was tired, so he took the little tiger to leave, walked through the long veranda, and walked to his small courtyard.

The autumn wind is clear and bright, and the bright yellow leaves fall all over the courtyard, and some of them float to the veranda, and the feet rustle when stepped on.

When the little tiger saw a butterfly, it jumped out silently and rolled into the fallen leaves. It was deliberately disturbing and teasing, and jumped up and down from time to time to play with the colorful little butterfly.

In the autumn afternoon, it is quiet and peaceful, and the beauty is outrageous.

Cui Yu simply refused to leave, leaning lazily on the pillar, sitting on the railing, watching the little tiger play with his chin resting on his chin.

What happened today made him feel a lot of emotion. The two most important things are, one, he still underestimated his grandmother.He suddenly felt that his grandmother was mysterious, and thought that his abilities must be good, so he began to speculate, but these past events... relying on Yang Xuan's news network, he only found out about Yang Xu and Wang Ji, and there was very little information about the old man and Wang's aunt. , It can be seen that the blockade was strict at that time.The noble circle of aristocratic families also involves the details of children's love. Many things in the middle are only experienced by the parties involved. How would the grandmother know?Still know so much?

One of the eight small families in Luoyang is the Bai family. Could it be the grandmother—no, Cui Yu shook his head. He is familiar with the information in Luoyang. She was the stepwife my grandfather married in the south of the Yangtze River. She came from a businessman and was rich, but she didn't have much foundation... What my grandmother revealed may still be the tip of the iceberg.

With such ability, why did he commit himself to the Cui family back then, why did he not care about how the Cui family struggled for so many years, and let him see it?

Second, his grandmother, Xu and Wang Wu knew each other, and they had some old friendship, so they wanted to 'have a consummation' to solve Wang Wu's knot.Her contempt for Wang Duo's so-called rules is obvious, there may have been some conflicts, or she may have seen too much and disagreed.

But judging at the time, the concept of family status was very heavy, and it was impossible for people of different classes to meet. How did grandma meet Wang Wu?Or——what he guessed was actually all wrong?

Grandma also reminded him that the old man, the Prince of England, is now old and he is a bit shrewd in his actions, but his stubbornness is still undiminished, and he dislikes to owe favors and accept favors the most, so if he rushes to the door, the final result will be certain. was kicked out.

Cui Yu knew this very well, so he was worried, how should he talk to the old man?As long as he can sit down and talk properly, even if the atmosphere is not good, he can find a suitable path, but it's useless if the old man doesn't give him a chance to meet.

"Brother! Where are you here!" The voice of the little fat man Cui Jin came from the end of the veranda, and the cheerful footsteps ran over. The little fat man sat next to Cui Yu and complained a little, "I wanted to tell you about my grandmother that day. Dealing with Uncle's affairs, but you are never free!"

Nothing happened, Cui Yu looked at him with a smile: "Well, let's talk now."

The little fat man looked left and right, a little disgusted: "The scenery is not bad, but there is no tea or order... But who calls me a younger brother, let's just say so!" She kept laughing, "Let me tell you, when I met my uncle that day, my grandmother didn't show face, and asked my brother directly what happened to your marriage with Miss Tao's family!"

"Uncle is embarrassing, I thought it was at least a few words of pleasantries! The old man with a face, like this—" Cui Jin imitated Cui Zheng's expression, and felt that his face was not long enough, so he opened his mouth and lowered his chin a little, looking very ridiculous .

"Uncle may want to deny this responsibility, so let's just say, Tao Chuchu's matter may not be that serious. At that time, he...grandmother put the teacup heavily on the table, and the voice was clear, and the room immediately became quiet. It's gone." Cui Jin imitated Bai's expression, straight and upright, with no waves on his face, and only glanced slightly, "You mean, what your little brother said is wrong, and what happened in front of everyone at the Wang family's birthday banquet is all Fake?"

At the Wang family's autumn banquet, the little uncle Cui Shu almost pointed at the Tao family's nose and scolded. He was well-founded, and those who blocked him couldn't even refute. Those with eyes and brains knew what was going on at a glance. How could it be possible? Can you hide it?

Cui Yu smiled: "Young uncle must be angry."

"That must be true. I almost pointed at my uncle's nose and scolded him for intentionally cheating on my nephew." Cui Jin shook his head, imitating everyone's appearance at that time, "Uncle was upset, and even changed the subject cleverly, saying that the marriage of the younger generation was originally made by the elders. host."

Cui Mata: ...This is deliberately suppressing the little uncle.

Cui Zheng is the elder, and he is the master of his nephew's marriage. Although the younger uncle is also an elder, he is younger than him, and his elder brother is like a father. According to this reason, the younger uncle has to listen to him and can't be so rude.

"But he forgot our grandma, grandma is like this—" Cui Jin rushed to talk excitedly, and began to imitate Bai's demeanor and voice, "So I am not an elder, and I don't deserve to know!"

This is a heavy word.Although the Bai family is not much older than Cui Zheng, but she is a serious continuation, and she also occupies the word "di", so how can Cui Zheng not bow his head when he calls his mother?

"Uncle immediately pleaded guilty, saying that he didn't mean that, the marriage of children should be decided by the parents, and then reported to the elders, it's not that he didn't tell grandma on purpose."

Cui Jin laughed straight: "Grandmother just said: Cui Yu was born by you? Uncle choked again."

Cui Yu didn't hold back his laughter either. As an uncle, he was quite clever in his memory. After being an official for a long time, his self-confidence swelled, and he became a bit conceited. He thought that Bai's old woman would not dare to talk to him To be so straightforward and bold.

"My dad didn't say anything?"

"Third Uncle wanted to talk, but was stopped by Third Aunt." Cui Jin shook his legs, watching the little tiger fluttering butterflies not far away, "Third Aunt's speech was too long, I don't remember it, but she had a big smile, It is said that uncle should speak to their husband and wife in advance, and they may not refuse, and now the outside world will not accuse uncle of cheating on nephew."

Cui Yu: "Uncle, are you not surprised?"

"It seems to be a bit... Anyway, after a long silence, I said that I want to see you, brother, and apologize to you in person."

Cui Yu thought about it, he didn't see his uncle later—"Who stopped him?"

"Little uncle! The little uncle yelled at him directly, saying that he was afraid of losing his job and wanted you to help him make a play to make his reputation..."

Cui Jin replayed the scene vividly, and Cui Yan couldn't stop laughing after hearing it. His little uncle is really self-willed and bold!

"Grandmother was fierce for a while, and then she suddenly smiled cordially, saying that you are her most important grandson, and she will take care of everything about you in the future. She also said that uncle is also her son, and she is also in pain. It's over, everyone has a knot in their hearts, it doesn't matter if they haven't, as long as the uncle comes often, the relationship will gradually improve, and if you can't write a single word, how can the family have any overnight feud?"

Cui Jin imitated Bai's expression and talked on the phone softly, and finally covered his arms, as if afraid of getting goosebumps: "Grandmother must be calculating when she is so kind, and my uncle believed it. I am very touched!"

Cui Mata laughed.

First hard and then soft, stepping on the critical point of others' psychology, talking about the things that matter most, and finally being able to relax, change the atmosphere, and let the other party not hold grudges, and even introspect.

He was very straightforward in his heart, regardless of other things, his grandmother's love for him was true.

The elders' love for the younger...

As soon as Cui Yu's mausoleum was cleared, he suddenly thought of Prince Ying. No matter how stubborn Prince Ying is, he will always love his two grandchildren. Can he use this as a breakthrough point?

In an instant, the eyeballs moved back and forth quickly, and several thoughts in the mind fluctuated and slowly took shape...

"Cui Jin," Cui Yan put the little fat man's shoulders on his shoulders, and looked at him lovingly, "You are very good."

The little fat man was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously hugged his fat self, trembling with fear on his face: "Brother...how did you think of a way to abuse me again? I've been very good lately, really good!"

……

Cui Yu wrote a letter to express his anger with Yang Xuan, and early the next morning, he went to the Prince Ying's mansion to meet him.

Unsurprisingly, it was rejected.

The old butler looked at the handsome young man in the porter's room, and couldn't bear to say harsh words: "It's not that the old man doesn't want to see you, it's because he's too busy."

"It's okay," Cui Yu, who had been here a few times, had a good impression of this old housekeeper with a simple and honest face and was very kind to him, and said with a smile, "Please pass on a message for me, please."

The old housekeeper sighed: "If the old man can't see you, what you say is useless."

"If it's still useless this time, I'll leave immediately and stop pestering you."

"Okay, tell me."

Cui Yu approached the old housekeeper: "Please bring this sentence for me..."

After a while, the old man of the Prince of England dumped the old housekeeper and went to the concierge to find Cui Yu himself: "How dare you threaten this old man!"

Cui Yu lowered his eyes, hid the smile in his eyes, and stood up calmly: "How did you say this, my lord? How dare this junior threaten you?"

"you say--"

Cui Yu immediately stopped him: "Your Highness, are you sure you want to talk to the junior here?"

The old man stared at him, ground his teeth, and turned around with his robe: "You come with me!"

Cui Yu sat down in the side hall of the palace smoothly.

There is tea, a little bit, and dried fruit preserves, which are very comprehensive.

Seeing that he didn't recognize his birth, the old man was not in a hurry. He sipped tea elegantly and leisurely, snorted coldly, and sat down heavily with his robe lifted: "I have never seen such a bold and rude young man like you!"

"This is the first time this junior has known you as a mighty and willful prince and general."

"If I don't see you, you spoil your sister's marriage and prevent her from marrying my grandson. How can there be such a ruthless brother like you in the world!"

Cui Yu was not unhappy when he was scolded, and he still kept smiling: "Junior Rong reminds you that the marriage of the sister-in-law has not yet been arranged, but there is no resistance to talk about it."

The old man was even angrier: "The old man gave you hints before!"

"Your secret intention—" Cui Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, his voice slowed down, and was quite meaningful, "Is it Yang Xu, the grandson of your family, or Yang Zhao, the second son?"

"Of course—" the old man squinted his eyes halfway through speaking, with a vigilant expression.

Cui Yu drank the tea in his cup and knocked it lightly on the table.

"You fell in love with this girl, Cui Ying, and liked her for being smart, generous, well-mannered, pretty, and skillful, so you wanted to marry her as your grandson-in-law. But you have two grandsons, who are you going to give them to? The little grandson is a bit of a second child, Some bears, the girl may be able to control them, and they will live well in the future. As for the grandson, if he falls in love with a man... But if he falls in love with a man, he may not necessarily look down on a woman. There are no women at the border, maybe the grandson is just lame , can you pull it over? So let me take the dim sum that day..."

Cui Yu looked at Prince Ying, his eyes were very quiet, and his voice was very peaceful: "Let me guess, grandson Yang Xu, does he just like that kind of dim sum? Although Yang Zhao is greedy, he is [-]% to his brother. Well, you got it right, grandchildren will like dim sum, even if you are not curious about the people who make dim sum right now, it will be different if you find out about it when you have a chance..."

"Isn't it good for you to match up your sister-in-law with your grandson who already has someone in your heart?"

After seeing through his thoughts, the old man was a little annoyed: "The old man just thinks of multiple opportunities, and the two grandsons will choose according to the girl, and never use any shady methods. You boy, don't think too much about people!"

Cui Yu didn't let him go, and his voice became more serious: "But if accidents happen one after another later, and you really find an opportunity, what should I do if my sister is tempted? You can't suppress your grandson, and you will make your own chickens fly like dogs, and you will ruin him." It's my sister's life!"

"Old man—"

Cui Yu blocked his words: "The matter of the grandson broke out, and this matter can't be done again, so you think about it again and want to do it for Yang Zhao—"

The old man immediately retorted: "I don't have any!"

"No?" Cui Yu sneered, "No, why did you come to see this junior in person when you were threatened by the junior and heard that the junior would block your younger sister's marriage?"

The Prince of England's old face was a little ashamed.

For so many years, he has never done anything wrong, but this time he planned one or two for his grandson, and he didn't dare to go too far, so he was seen out!

Just say that this kid is so smart and close to a demon, he is not easy to deal with!

The old man dared to do it, and said loudly: "This is my mistake. But this old man appreciates Cui Ying, and he is sincere. If she is willing to marry Yang Zhao, I guarantee that she will be the head of the house. If there is any disrespect, I will beat you to death!"

It's just that this acknowledgment made his posture lower by half, which didn't put much pressure on Cui Yu's aura.

Cui Yu lazily shook his fingers, "Anyway, my sister won't marry someone as thoughtful as you. It's too late to change, and Yang Zhao can't do it either."

The old man narrowed his eyes: "So you are here today to piss me off?"

Cui Yu smiled with a very relaxed expression: "Your junior, how dare you? It's just that the younger generation is watching, you don't seem to want this grandson."

The old man didn't speak.

"You don't want it, why don't you give it to the junior? The junior still needs a guard—"

The old man stared: "You think beautiful!"

"Look, do you still love your grandson? Why do you have to be so mean?" Cui Yan spread his hands, "This is beating and scolding. The grandchildren are close to you. The filial piety is touching. No objection. Others... I'm afraid I won't get used to it."

The old man was vigilant: "What do you want to say when you come today?"

Cui Mata waved his sleeves and held the pot to refill the tea. His posture was elegant and calm, which was pleasing to the eye: "It's nothing, I just admire the reputation of the prince for a long time, and I want to talk with you about the past and the present, about the government and the people."

"This old man only knows how to fight, and knows nothing about court affairs," the old man directly refused, "You have found the wrong person."

Cui Yu took a sip of tea and smiled: "This tea tastes good, and the grandmother of the younger generation should like it. Speaking of which, among the grandchildren here, the grandmother likes the younger generation the most, and she likes to hear what the younger generation says the most. Is this sister-in-law's marriage, must be?" The juniors will test it."

The old man gritted his teeth: "The girl really loves and respects you, so you will return her marriage business?"

"Hey, what did I say?" Cui Yu was very innocent, "It's just a test. Whether the other party can pass is one thing, but whether my family should be this relative in the end is another matter."

The room was silent for a moment.

The old man sneered just now, and slowly threw out what he said to Cui Yu before: "Hui Ji will be hurt, you boy, pay more attention to yourself."

After he finished speaking, he stopped talking and didn't leave. He didn't show a gesture of refusal, just like "you say it, I'll look at you and say it".

Cui Yu's eyes drooped slightly, and he didn't press down on the old man with a victorious posture. He paused and said humbly, "I really want to ask you to clarify my doubts. I often hear that Da'an is unstable, saying that there are powerful enemies around. Self-improvement will be humiliated, but this Luoyang, this Chang'an, is prosperous everywhere, so how can there be any danger?"

"You're just smarter, what do you know?" The old man is a professional on this topic, and it doesn't involve any secrets, so he is naturally willing to show off, "I have been fighting in China for hundreds of years, and the Daan Dynasty was built, and a large area of ​​the Central Plains was recovered. But there are many more. There are Western Turks in the west, East Turks in the north, Fuguo in the southwest, Pubu, and Khitan and Xi in the northeast. Many of these places once belonged to our territory. This person has a territory, and his ambition is endless. When we grow up, Khitan and a small country like Xi are always thinking of coming to bite us, let alone a big country like Turkic?"

"Although East Turkistan and West Turkistan are divided, you ignore me and I ignore you, but both countries have a large territory. A single territory is almost as large as our entire Da'an. How big is it together? After all, they have the same ancestor, and now they have conflicts. But if we fight hard, can we not unite?"

"I don't want to mention the border with the small country. I also have famous generals in Da'an. There is an old man's family in the west. The old man has fought against the West Tuya Tent. They have scruples. As long as the old man does not die, they dare not really fight to the death. In the north, there is Mu. The old man Tangfeng, a few years ago, there was a young warrior called Timberwolf. I heard that he went to the battlefield when he was less than ten years old. ..."

The old man talked a lot about the situation in the frontier and why Da'an had so many hidden worries, and Cui Yu let him talk about it.After finishing speaking, when the old man drank tea, he said: "So, Da'an, we need a capable king even more, don't we?"

This voice is not heavy, it hits people's heart, but it is powerful, you can't help but pay attention to it.

The old man was stunned.

After a long time, he looked at Cui Yu quietly: "What are you alluding to?" His voice was slightly hoarse.

"The junior is just a reminder."

Cui Yu sighed: "You are so brave and fearless of death, and the young generals also fought bloody battles to protect the world behind us and the thousands of people. For this reason, countless people shrouded their bodies in leather and never returned. The ambition of you and the soldiers , your hope, the people behind you, the land under your feet—are you willing to rot and throw it away?"

"Is it really good for you to know the royal affairs most in your heart, to watch so coldly and do nothing?"

The old man lowered his eyes slightly, his eyelids trembling.

Cui Yu chased after the victory, and spoke a little faster: "It is true that you have been fighting and defending the border, but you really don't know anything about it? You have strong martial arts and rich experience, so you don't happen to know some important secrets—very fascinating." The one who is afraid, has to hide it?"

"The way you protect yourself and your family is very good, but is that enough? Did you really escape, not to be suspected, not to be targeted, and never to have any future troubles?"

One by one, the old man sat still with his eyes closed, without saying anything.

Cui Yu was not in a hurry: "The younger generation feels that the matter of grandchildren is not hindered at all, but it is beneficial. Your title of prince, it is better to take it easy..."

After a long time, the old man narrowed his eyes and looked at Cui Yu coldly: "You're tricking me."

At this moment, his whole body's aura surged, and boundless killing intent spread out. Although he didn't have a weapon in his hand, it seemed like he was showing a sharp sword, intending to chop the person in front of him to pieces!

Cui Yu laughed: "So, is the prince going to kill the junior?"

The old man oppressed Cui Yu for a few breaths. Seeing that Cui Yu was not afraid, and didn't even look flustered, he suddenly laughed and slapped the table with his big hand: "You are not bad!"

Cui Yu's heart relaxed, knowing that he had dodged, and secretly wiped the sweat from his palms, but the expression on his face remained undiminished: "This junior is able to trap you, it's my skill, and you can find it, it's your wisdom."

"Okay, don't coax me, this old man, this step by step is getting deeper, among the juniors, who is better than you!"

The old man can see that this handsome young man is not only smart, but also knows a lot about the court situation and has a good view of the overall situation.What Cui Ying's marriage is, it's just a bait to meet him, it's not the purpose, I just know that I said this, and I can continue to talk about it when I have a chance to meet him.

The frontier is a strong enemy, people don't know about it, or they throw it out to interest the old man, and when they come, the interest is exhausted, and the people's backs come out.

A few heart-pounding questions, asked too sharply, directly poking his lungs, he just felt that before, he actually underestimated this kid...

Cui Yu's eyebrows were crooked, and he smiled like a cunning fox: "Your junior can clearly say that there is a way to make the matter between the grandson and Wang Ji, and even more, I will give you a surprise."

The old man crossed his arms and snorted, rather arrogantly: "Who is your kid, the old man guessed it!"

"If you know it, you will know it. If you dare to do it, you will admit it!" Cui Yu didn't pause for a moment, and his smile was even wider. "My master admires your achievements. No matter whether it is political affairs, military affairs, or kung fu, he is willing to ask you for advice. I wonder if you can give me this chance?"

If he turned pale with fright and avoided all kinds of fears, the old man might still look down on him, but he accepted it generously and invited him for the master, the old man would look at him a few times: "Okay! Let him come to your door, Tell my old man to beat him up a few times before we talk!"

Cui Yu raised his head sharply, and the two looked at each other, their eyes were burning with deep meaning, there was no need to say anything, they already understood each other's hidden meaning.

The old man stroked his beard, tapped the table with his fingertips, and smiled like an old fox: "You kid."

Cui Yu raised his hand to respect him with tea, the old man glanced at him and accepted it.

At this moment, the atmosphere between the two was truly harmonious.

After relaxing, Cui Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, and the corners of his lips smiled with another kind of interest: "My master's martial arts is not as good as yours now, but he is not bad. Sometimes I see you in the middle of the night—" At this point, he suddenly He paused, covered his cough with the back of his hand, and changed the subject abruptly, "I'm sorry, I made a mistake."

But the old man's heart was full of waves, his fists clenched and his eyes shrunk slightly, and his volume involuntarily increased: "You kid, what do you know?"

"The junior is young, what can he know?" This matter can only be revealed today, and it is not easy to show the cards, lest the atmosphere is just right and the old man is not happy again.Cui Yu refilled the old man's cup of tea without rushing, "The younger generation only knows that the descendants are very pitiful..."

"In the drizzle, I met Mr. Wang Ji for the first time. Mr. Wang Ji was happy in the rain, and he was in a good mood. He stood in the rain and played a flute. The blue shirt was handsome, the jade was unparalleled, the trees were green, the grass leaves were dewy, it was a picturesque place. The picturesque person is the rain of love, causing the grandchildren to fall in love, and from then on there is only one person in their hearts, how innocent are the two?"

"The family background is very different, the personalities are different, and Mr. Wang Ji didn't look at his grandson at the beginning, but the two are so destined, they are so speculative, they can always meet each other in times of crisis, they will never leave each other in life and death, and they owe each other. I can't figure it out anymore. God is willing to torture a lover, so what's wrong with the two of you?"

"The elders don't agree, and they face a lot of pressure on each other, but they have the same heart and unswerving determination. They even send flowers to send rain and Ye Chengqing... They don't want to do that either."

……

Cui Yu said a lot, and what he said was very coincidental, and the key points always collided with the experience of the old man back then.

The old man was forced to relive the past incidents of heart abuse, felt empathy, wondered if he had done something wrong, and whether he should change his mind to support his grandson... This time, his inner fluctuations were extremely obvious, and a look appeared on his face, which made Cui Yu catch a real man with.

Cui Yu stood up and bowed to the old man: "Today is the younger generation's rudeness."

The old man probably guessed what he was thinking, touched his chin, and ignored him.

He continued: "It doesn't matter whether you have changed your mind or not, whether you agree with the grandchildren or not, but it is wrong for the Wang family to treat you like this and plant dirty grandchildren in this way. How do you think this is good? Do some small things, and you, I can also help you a little, and when you think it through, the younger generation will immediately start to solve the matter between your grandson and Mr. Wang Ji—how about it?"

Cui Yu looked at the old man with a warm and bright smile: "The junior and the master of the junior really want to show off their skills, let you see."
