Chapter 474: Finally Choosing a Side

Radami Zhu nodded, and said thoughtfully: "When you dig deeper, it's not that Cao Yuechan has changed, but that there are some bad things in her temperament, and some of them have become worse." ”

Radami Zhu is a bright and lovely girl, she pretends to be serious like this, so she can't amuse Cui Geng.

Cui Geng chuckled and said, "Come on!" I've known Cao Yuechan for almost ten years, and you haven't even seen anyone in person, as if you know her well!"

"Hmph, no matter how long you know her, she is also a man, and only women know women's hearts best." Radami beads are full of words.

Seeing that Cui Geng's face was still full of disbelief, she continued: "For example, why did Cao Yuechan have to have a one-year appointment with you in the first place? ”

"Of course, that's because the expansion of the Jufenglong Silver has reached a critical moment, and Yuechan doesn't want to be distracted by other things."

"Oh? Is it? The concubine doesn't see it that way. Radamizhu's dark eyes could almost emit light, and said: "In essence, this shows that Cao Yuechan thinks about marrying someone...... In other words, Erlang, you can't be trusted, only Ju Fenglong is his reliance. At least it also shows that in her mind, Jufenglong Silver is more important than Erlang you! ”

"How else can you explain that?" Cui Geng was a little unbelieving, and on the other hand, he had to admit that what Radamizhu said did have some truth.

I only heard Radamizhu continue: "Now, her temperament is even more serious! Today's two brocade boxes are just congratulatory gifts? Hmph, this is a demonstration against the two of us! ”

Cui Gengdao: "Isn't it a demonstration against you?" Why did you bring me with you again? ”

"Husband, it's easy for you to make money, of course you think four million yuan is nothing. But in Cao Yuechan...... Ah, no, in the eyes of almost everyone, this is a huge sum of money that is enough to make a "ghost grind". She will definitely think that although she is from a humble background, if she can come up with such a sum of money, Erlang must weigh the consequences of refusal. ”

"That's right...... This money can demonstrate against the Turkic and Great Zhou princesses, and naturally it will be able to demonstrate against me, the Great Zhou writer......"

Cui Geng thought for a moment, and the figure in the peony shirt seemed to appear in front of him, and muttered: "Ruochan, have you really changed?" ”

……

……

Perhaps in order to leave enough time for Cui Geng to prepare for the marriage, although four million yuan was sent, Cao Yuechan did not take the initiative to contact Cui Geng in the next few months. Even Cui Geng found the Jufenglong Silver in Luoyang, and the shopkeeper there didn't know it.

Next, Cui Geng really couldn't care about it, because the wind and clouds in the Great Zhou Dynasty caused an uproar~ wave!

Liang Wangfu, in the living room.

Wu Sansi personally brought over a good tea soup and said, "Cui Shushu, you try it, this is the most popular tea brewing method in Beijing, and the taste is quite extraordinary." Eh, I don't know who came up with this method of making tea, it's really a genius in the world! It turns out that for so many years from ancient times to the present, people's way of drinking tea is all wrong. ”

When Cui Geng heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes secretly, who came up with it? I'm Cui Geng, Cui Erlang. I don't believe it, don't you know about it? This sycophant is not very clever.

He took the teacup with both hands, took a sip, and said, "It's really good tea, thank you Liang Wang Chitose." Belch...... You're looking for an official today, it's not just as simple as drinking tea, right? ””

"Of course." Wu Sansi smiled and said, "This king wants to ask, Cui Shushu once accepted Princess Taiping's son Xue Chongjian as a disciple, I wonder if he has taken a class recently?" ”

"I've seen it a few times, Chongjian's son is smart and studious, and his achievements in the coming days are limitless."

"Oh!"

Wu Sansi nodded and said, "Then Cui's writings seem to be very satisfied with this apprentice?" This king also has several sons, Wu Chongxun, Wu Jizhi, Wu Chonglie, Wu Chongqian, Wu Chong? , Wu Chongcao...... Why don't you take them as apprentices along with Cui's writings? ”

Burst~~

Cui Geng squirted out all the tea soup in his mouth in one gulp, and said, "What are you talking about, prince?" Let me take your five sons as apprentices? I'm still commensurate with Brother Wu Yanxiu, isn't that messing up? ”

Wu Sansi said disapprerovingly: "What is the chaos? Xue Chongjian is not the same as the five sons of this king, haven't you taken him as an apprentice? ”

"However, your surname is Xue, and your surname is Wu!"

"This king not only knows Xue Chongjian's surname Xue, but also knows his mother's surname Li!" Speaking of this, Wu Sansi stared at Cui Geng's eyes, and said gloomily: "In a word, you accepted the son of the person surnamed Li, the son of the person surnamed Wu, do you accept it?" ”

Show one’s true colors in the end!

Cui Geng understood in an instant, Wu Sansi said that this is himself, and accepted five apprentices, obviously asking himself, whether he supports him as a prince or not!

"I ......"

"Hehe, Cui is really a little hesitant?" Wu Sansi said: "This king heard that when Cui Shushu and Di Renjie met His Majesty together, Di Renjie once persuaded His Majesty not to change the prince with the saying of "childless". And Cui Shushu was also present at the time, but he didn't say a word, which was really disappointing to this king! ”

Cui Geng took a deep breath and said, "Then let's open the skylight and say something bright, does King Liang want the lower officials to support you as the crown prince?" ”

"Yes! Since Cui's book is fast and fast-talking, this king will not hide it. As long as you support this king as the crown prince, you will be a high-ranking official in the coming day~ You have to sit and your horse to ride. It is not impossible to worship the prime minister. If not...... Becoming a king or defeating a king, Cui wrote his own thoughts! ”

Wu Sansi has always shown humility in order to be the crown prince, and he has put on a polite corporal. It's so unusual to make such a threat now.

Cui Geng's mind was racing, and he said, "If the lower officials are not mistaken, does the prince want to launch it?" ”

"It's not about launching, three days later, Your Majesty has his own will to consult all the courtiers, and Cui Shu only needs to agree at that time."

"What is this...... Cui Geng raised his eyebrows and said: "Thank you King Liang for your kindness, but this matter is very important, and Xia Guan can only choose to stand on the side of Lord Di." ”

"What did you say?"

Cui Geng said firmly: "If Your Majesty inquires, the next official will be the top watch, please make Li Xian, the king of Luling, the crown prince!" ”

"You ......" Wu Sansi took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and said, "Cui Erlang, it's too late for you to regret it now!" ”

Cui Geng was-for-tat and said: "Thinking about the prince's responsibility for the lower officials in the past, I also advise you, it's too late to regret it now!" Otherwise...... It's just a self-inflicted humiliation! ”

After saying this, Cui Geng couldn't help but have a layer of cold sweat on his back. He was really afraid that Wu Sansi would be angry, and what would happen to him. If he really has three strengths and two weaknesses, can Wu Zetian still do what to his own nephew?

Fortunately, Wu Sansi seemed to feel that the crown prince's position was in his hands, and he didn't take Cui Geng's way, so he had to say: "Then let's wait and see, come and see off the guests!" ”

……

……

Cui Geng had always had a neutral attitude in the Wu-Li dispute, but now, he understands that this slippery head can no longer be played.

Wu Zetian willed, if you want to establish Wu Sansi as the prince, if you don't object, you have an ambiguous attitude, and you will be liquidated in the future.

There must be no ambiguity on this major issue of right and wrong. Therefore, he had to formally break with Wu Sansi.

Facts have proved that Cui Geng's choice is extremely correct, neither Wu Zetian nor Wu Sansi expected that in people's minds, the Li family would have such a high reputation.

As soon as the edict was issued, more than eighty percent of the officials in the court expressed strong opposition.

Di Renjie even went to the table and said: "Emperor Taizong braved the wind and rain, and personally braved the arrows and stones, so that he could calm the world and pass it on to his descendants." The first emperor entrusted his second son to His Majesty, but now His Majesty wants to hand over the world to a foreign surname? Besides, which one is closer to the aunt and nephew or the mother and son? His Majesty set up his son as the crown prince, and he can enjoy the temple after a thousand years. If you set up a nephew, have you never heard of an aunt worthy of the temple? Please think twice, Your Majesty! ”

These words are reasonable, and Wu Zetian is quite moved.

Then, Di Renjie seized every opportunity to persuade Wu Zetian, for example, Wu Zetian dreamed of a big parrot and both wings were broken.

Di Renjie explained the dream to him and said: "Wu is His Majesty's surname, and the two wings refer to the second son. Your Majesty now only has two sons, King Luling (Li Xian) and King Xiang (Li Dan), as long as the two sons are restored, the two wings can be cheered up. ”

In addition, other important ministers, including Ji Ji, who had recently gained the trust of Wu Zetian, all looked for various opportunities to advise.

Wu Zetian gradually understood that the hearts of the people in the world were towards Li, and if he wanted to pass it on to Wu Sansi, he would have to be the enemy of the world again.

At the beginning, despite the opposition of the world, she ascended to the throne of the empress, and won once. Do you want to fight again after eight years? Can you stand such a toss?

As soon as Wu Zetian hesitated here, the ministers saw the dawn of victory more and more, and stepped up to the table.

But just when everyone thought that the overall situation was decided, there was another moth - the Tubo envoy, that is, the eldest son of the Tubo minister on the merits of Qinling, died!
