Tome of Troubled Times Chapter 664: The true heritage of the family

Chapter 664 The true heritage of the family

Zhao Changhe didn’t know what he had eaten for this meal. It was so fragrant and charming that he had no impression of the food at all. He only remembered that the rabbit was white, plump, trembling, and hot, and the rabbit shape on the table. Just like Shoudao, I didn’t know which one I ate in the end.

Anyway, they are delicious.

But in the end that kind of thing was not done, it was neither the place nor the time.

Said he is a "conqueror", but in fact he is alone and not in very good condition. At this time, Cui Wen Z has no time to take care of his own safety. How much dissatisfaction is hidden within the huge Cui family? Is anyone trying to assassinate him while he is selfless? Is it possible for the disaster to come back? Unknown.

It's okay to play with it for a while, but if you really want to do it, once it becomes sudden, you can exchange your experience with Prime Minister Cao under Jiuquan, and you didn't do anything like this.

You still have to be patient... Once the wedding comes, there will be a group of elite members of the Cui family to protect the safety of their young lady.

I used to have a headache with the so-called main palace issue, but the current situation is not a big problem. The Cui family has much less confidence to compete for this position... But then again, even if we don't talk about the title, it is just the issue of the wedding sequence itself. It's enough to give you a headache.

A loyal minister with such a big makeup would dare to compete with the emperor for a husband in court. If these women knew that they were married outside, I wonder if they would tear themselves into pieces...

However, Zhao Changhe feels that he may not have time to get married for the time being... Now that Huangshang is injured, he should gather the power of the Cui family and the Caobang to attack the Wang family's territory with lightning speed and completely eliminate this future trouble.

The pressure of the Hu people is always hanging on their heads. It is really not the time to enjoy themselves. Well, Yangyang didn’t grow up so fast anyway, so she’s still very cute...

When Cui Wen Z arranged various matters and slowly walked outside his daughter's boudoir, the man and woman were already sitting in the yard outside drinking tea, looking like dogs. The first sentence Cui Wen Z heard was this: "How many soldiers does the Cui family have now?"

Cui Wen Z was surprised that these two people were actually talking about this, so he stopped outside and listened.

The daughter's voice was serious: "There are more than 30,000 armored men and five or six thousand war horses. If we count all the other people, we can pull an army of 200,000 people. Of course, according to legal principles, only a small number of these are ours. , they should be regarded as the soldiers and horses of Daxia County, but they are controlled by us in various ways... Well, we have to calculate the food and grass carefully, but I feel that there is not much shortage..."

Cui Wen Z didn’t know whether he should be happy that his daughter already knew how to calculate the family fortune, or whether he should scold her for being a **** who cheated on her and revealed everything in the family with just one sentence. However, a few moments ago, I had just made the decision to return the military power of the prefectures and counties to the imperial court, so it doesn’t matter now...

Zhao Changhe doesn't have any idea about this number now. He doesn't think that a few thousand war horses are few, and he doesn't think that 30,000 with armor is not enough. On the contrary, it is very strong. An intuitive comparison is that the Maitreya Sect claimed to have swept millions of people in the south of the Yangtze River, but among the millions of people who could be called "armored", there were only a few thousand at first, and at their strongest, they were only about 20,000 or 30,000. The number of cavalry may be less than a thousand...

Personnel can be trained, but resources and equipment are difficult to produce. In addition, there is "not much shortage" of food and grass... This is the terrifying background of top families like King Cui, who can change at any time in troubled times. Become a competitive force.

A long time ago, when Cui Yuanyang didn't know how strong Xia Longyuan was, he even missed the words "We may not be afraid of him." Cui Wenwei didn't think that the New Han Dynasty court had any big strength. It was because their family was really Very fierce. Without the influence of supermodel strength like Yu Jing, they really aren't afraid of anyone with conventional strength.

As soon as the Wang family raised the flag, they encountered the Cui family of the same level who resisted to the death. It can be said that they were defeated. If it were any other enemy, they would have been bulldozed and flattened long ago. How could they not be able to defeat a mere Puyang in a few months?

This is also the reason why emperors choose to compromise and cooperate with them in most cases. It is also the first situation that Zhao Changhe must open. Once opened, the chaotic situation will instantly become my advantage. On the contrary, I will have an advantage. If they were united by these families in the past, the effect would be directly opposite.

When Tang Wanzhuang was discussing with Xia Chichi a few days ago, he said that the relationship between Zhao Changhe and Cui Yuanyang two years ago is simply a sign of great luck. Only Zhao Changhe can bring the Cui family and Tang Dynasty together. The various forces of the Family and the Four Symbol Sect have all integrated together to clean up the collapsed and torn rivers and mountains.

Cui Wen?Z did not enter for a while and continued to listen.

Zhao Changhe is saying: "Do you know the situation over there in the Yang family?"

Cui Yuanyang said: "It's true that we haven't communicated openly. No one has sent an envoy on the surface. I don't know what's going on behind the scenes. Maybe I have to ask my father... No, don't always look for him!"

The little girl actually became vigilant as she spoke: "If you want to ask at another time, if you run out to find him now and see if I ignore him? I'm being stupid?br/>

Cui Wen?Z: "..."

Are you sick?

Zhao Changhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Your father is busy now. Let's get to know you a little first, and then just tell us what you know."

Cui Yuanyang muttered: "Although you are somewhat kind to the Yang family, this favor is based on the Lianshan Sword. Now that the sword is destroyed, this favor is meaningless. Even if you can promise to help them forge swords. It's useless. Both you and Huangshang can promise to forge swords. However, your attitude towards the family and Xia Chichi's identity as the late emperor's daughter will definitely not be chosen by Yang Jingxiu - after all, if you become the emperor yourself, the Yang family still has some hope. , What do you want Xia Chichi to do..."

"Chi Chi also has some kindness towards the Yang family. At this point, we can only say that our positions are fundamentally contradictory. Those small friendships can no longer determine anything." Zhao Changhe took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Me too I don’t intend to treat the Yang family the same as I treat you.”

Cui Yuanyang was very happy: "What is Brother Zhao going to do?"

"Currently, the enemy that the Han Dynasty needs to conquer most is the Wang family. It is impossible to point the finger at the Yang family first. That would be putting the cart before the horse. I need the Cui family to help me control the Yang family first."

Cui Yuanyang was stunned: "Don't we need to send troops to attack the Wang family? I have wanted to cause trouble for them for a long time."

"To be honest, what I'm afraid of is just that you will unite together. As long as the unity of your families is destroyed, individually, the Wang family will already be dead bones in the grave in my eyes..."

"Although they were defeated for a while in Puyang, they still have quite a few soldiers and horses..."

Seeing Cui Yuanyang's unhappy expression as if she wanted to beat up the Wang family, Zhao Changhe couldn't help but reach out and pinch her face: "Then... just follow me."

Cui Yuanyang's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Of course." Zhao Changhe said: "Before that, I will help you forge the sword... This is what I promised my uncle, and it is time for my family to be on the list..."

Cui Wen Z couldn't hold it back anymore and finally stepped into the courtyard: "Can it be cast directly?"

Cui Yuanyang: "...when did you come?"

Cui Wen?Z said angrily: "I know you don't want me to take up your and your lover's time, so I'm going out deliberately not to disturb you, okay?"

Cui Yuanyang: "...If anything, I'm very happy that dad is here."

Cui Wen Z really didn’t know how he could teach such a **** little bastard, so he just didn’t bother to pay attention to her, turned to Zhao Changhe and said: "What do you need from the Cui family?"

"Please help me send a letter to Beijing first? I have some plans to discuss with Chi Chi Wanzhuang."

Cui Wen?Z nodded and said: "I was going to submit a report, so just write it down and I'll ask Yuan Yong to go there in person."

"Okay. I don't need much else. First of all, it needs to be enough fire to melt the broken sword. Secondly, it needs to be safe enough so that no one can disturb me."

"We are rebuilding Qinghe. Whoever dares to disturb us will be sworn in with me!"

Zhao Changhe: "?"

Cui Yuanyang: "?"

Who said "I"? Was it Cui Yuanyong standing here just now? So there is actually a reason why people talk about mom in their mouths, right?

"Ahem." Cui Wen Z realized that he had lost his temper and quickly regained his composure: "You said that Yuan Yong or Yuan Yang himself is needed to summon the original sword spirit when making a sword. Is Yuan Yang alone enough? Do you need Yuan Yong to come with you?"

"It shouldn't be necessary. It's just what you want. It can be done by one person. It doesn't require much practice. Are you sure you have fire? I don't think you are playing this way. If it doesn't work, you have to ask Venerable Suzaku for help. ."

Zhao Changhe felt a little guilty when he said this. Suzaku was not suitable to leave the capital at this time. Fortunately, the impact of Qinghe's proximity was not too big. The key was that he didn't know whether Suzaku would tear Yangyang apart. ……

Cui Wen?Z laughed dumbly: "Do you think our ancestors chose Qinghe to take root just to gain the reputation of an ancient family?"

Zhao Changhe's heart moved: "There is a secret realm here!"

Cui Wen?Z stroked his beard and smiled: "Not only do we have it, but every family has it... It's time for you to see the true foundation of each major family. And I suspect that the secret realm here is of immeasurable value to you. ."

Cui Yuanyang leaned his chin on one side and drank tea sullenly. You know, once this son-in-law starts, he will do all kinds of you know what I'm thinking, I know what you want, and he is an outsider... He obviously knows the secrets of the family, why didn't he secretly take Brother Zhao to have a look first? Woolen cloth?
