Chapter 191 The ‘Hands On’ Between Talking And Laughing!
Inside the Cui Family Ancestral Hall.
After Cui Lie finished speaking, he knelt down directly in front of the ancestral tablet: “The descendants are not filial, and today the Cui family has suffered a catastrophe. I hope the ancestors can bless my Cui family.
Listening to his father’s prayer, Cui Jun also hurriedly knelt down, repenting in his heart, and praying for blessings is naturally a matter of course.
This situation also appeared in the other major families in Boling City.
These second-generation ancestors, who got into trouble with Cui Jun, ran home one by one and told their father what happened.
For a time, these families were all in chaos and panic.
Because the person they offended was the emperor, how should this be?
But no matter how scared they were in their hearts, they still didn’t have any intention of escaping. First, it was too late to prepare for this incident, and secondly, Boling was in the hinterland of Jizhou. How could they escape with their family and family?
After much deliberation, these patriarchs walked out of the house and towards the county office.
At the entrance of the county government office, headed by Cui Lie, several of the richest and most powerful patriarchs in the city were waiting at the entrance.
The person who notified has been in for no more than an hour, but there is still no response.
Originally, they were all anxious and fearful, but the hot weather at this time made these people restless, and they felt calm in their hearts.
“Brother Cui, what do you mean when you look at His Majesty? You just want to hang us out? But if this is the case, wouldn’t it prove that our entire family is not in danger?”
Cui Lie opened his eyes, revealing a trace of light.
Seeing that the familiar Chen family asked, he shook his head: “Brother Chen, this time is the biggest danger we have encountered over the years. , I’m afraid we will become the fat chicken in the ‘kill the chicken to warn the monkey’.”
“Although His Majesty today is young, he is decisive in killing and never hesitates. This sudden unannounced visit to Dao Boling is the best proof.”
“The famous clans in Jizhou and Youzhou, only my Cui family is close, and he will naturally take a fancy to our Boling place.
After Cui Lie said this, he not only had to sigh, but at this time he didn’t know what Liu Bian meant, and let them hang for so long.
Patriarch Chen was full of surprise, and nodded slowly for a while: “Brother Cui and I think the same, now we can only take one step and watch one step, otherwise, if you accidentally make a move, you will lose everything.
. . .
“just wait!!”
Under the scorching sun, the patriarchs of the most prosperous families in Boling City were all at the entrance of the county government office, standing quietly under the scorching sun.
This scene that was impossible to appear in the past really attracted the attention of many pedestrians, but no one dared to watch, at most just chatting a few words in the distance, for fear that Cui Lie and others would hear it and retaliate in the future.
In the county government office, Liu Bian took a beautiful nap.
In fact, he didn’t deliberately hang up these family owners, in Liu Bian’s eyes, there is no need to be so complicated.
But just because he fell asleep, the rest of the people did not dare to report casually, for fear of angering Liu Bian, so these homeowners basked in the sun and no one passed it on.
When Liu Bian woke up faintly, he received the county magistrate’s report.
Only then did he let the owners take these homeowners to the hall in the backyard.
Behind the county office, in the hall.
The families headed by Cui Lie were all standing uneasily. Although there were stools beside them, they didn’t dare to sit down at all, and they didn’t even dare to talk to each other. They were just anxiously waiting for Liu Bian to arrive.
“Your Majesty is coming…
With the sound of a rude voice, Cui Lie and the others hurriedly knelt to the ground and shouted: “Long live my emperor!
Liu Bian slowly stepped into the hall amid the shouts of these people.
He looked up at the person who came, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: “Everyone, please be flat! 35
The magistrate Wang stepped forward one by one and introduced Cui Lie and others to Liu Bian.
After the introduction, Cui Lie knelt on the ground again: “Your Majesty, the old minister’s son is not filial, and actually collides with Tianyan, it’s really damn, damn, the old minister has tied him to the ancestor’s tablet, it seems that this kind of son, the minister is willing to In front of the ancestors, the ancestors personally killed this traitor.””
Although Cui Lie has no official or salary now, he may have bought Sangong to do it during the Han Lingdi period. Although the Sangong at that time was already a symbolic high official without any real power, there is no problem with him calling himself the old city.
And what Cui Lie said is even more beautiful, not only putting aside the relationship of the Cui family, but also hoping to sacrifice his son in exchange for Liu Bian’s forgiveness.
He was so ruthless, but the rest of the patriarchs didn’t have such courage, as if they had been tricked by Cui Lie, everyone stood there in embarrassment and looked helpless.
Liu Bian naturally wouldn’t let the Cui family and so many aristocratic families go so easily.
“When you were an official in front of your father, you should be more aware of the principle that one is prosperous and one is lost.”
“Although Linglang has offended me, it stands to reason that even if all of your Cui family were involved, you would not be willing according to the laws of the big man, but just because I care about the old love, I know that your Cui family has also cultivated a lot of people for the court from generation to generation. Talent, this is the only way to open up.”5
“To let you all come here today is also to give a thorough solution at this time. 35
Liu Bian’s words did not take any turns, it could be said that they were straight and straight, directly blocking all Cui Lie’s words in his stomach.
But this is the easiest way to deal with these 050 old foxes.
After listening to Liu Bian’s words, Cui Lie and the others sighed in their hearts, and changed again: “It was Inunzi and the others who were rude to His Majesty, thanks to His Majesty’s kindness and kindness, and did not care about them in the same way, we are infinitely grateful, and we will do it in the future. Go through fire and water, but also serve His Majesty.”
Cui Lie even opened his mouth and said: “My Cui family is willing to donate 100,000 dans of grain and grass to the army for the imperial army to fight. 35
When Cui Lie spoke, the rest of the people also spoke out, all donating food for the imperial court.
The speed of this strain also made Liu Bian even more happy.
He laughed loudly: “You are really all the loyal and good people of the big man. Later, I have a list here, and all the things I need are on it, so I will trouble a few patriarchs to quickly collect them, and then I will definitely Not worth the reward.””
“Besides that, I don’t want to waste time with the new policy issued by me. You families need to unite and explain the benefits, so that families in other places can feel a little more at ease and not be afraid!””
“Do you understand?
After Liu Bian said this, his eyes were directly on Cui Lie, because he knew that in these aristocratic families, Cui Lie was the soul, and only if he spoke out, the rest would not have any reaction.
Sure enough, at the moment when the voice fell, everyone’s eyes turned to Cui Lie.
