Chapter 33 You Deserve to Die

Shen Mo smiled brightly and enthusiastically, which made Cui Jing feel strange.

However, since General Shen wanted to drink with him, he naturally had no reason to refuse.

"Very good. Since you are in Xianyang City, I will treat General Shen to some of our fine Xianyang wine."

"No problem!"

Chen Mo was extremely happy. Yan Xingchuan actually did something like sneaking into Cui Liuniang's boudoir last night. He must have cared about her very much.

He doesn't have any advantages except that he's smart. Since the master cares so much about him, it would be best to establish a good relationship with this future brother-in-law.

As Shen Mo and Cui Jing walked in, they talked about what fine wines there were in Xianyang City.

Mrs. Cui's face looked a little unhappy, and Mr. Cui Sanye looked thoughtful, with a gleam in his eyes.

When the group entered Chunhua Hall, the main courtyard of Yayuan, they saw Yan Xingchuan sitting under a crabapple tree drinking tea.

In March, the peonies have not yet bloomed, but this crabapple tree is in full bloom.

Flowers are clustered on the branches, red with pink, pink with white. When the wind blows, the flower stalks tremble slightly, making them graceful and elegant.

The young man was wearing a moon-white, round-necked, wide-sleeved robe with a gold-woven water-scale pattern, and a jade crown on his head to tie his hair.

At this moment, he was sitting at the stone table under the crabapple tree, holding a teacup in his hand. He looked dignified and elegant, yet with an inviolable dignity and solemnity.

It is indeed the Immortal Lord of the Clouds, the living God.

Cui Jing and Mr. Cui Sanye had seen Yan Xingchuan in armor. He was like the scorching sun in Zhaoyang, carrying the solemnity and sharpness of a battlefield, cold and captivating, making people surrender and worship him.

This moon-white body, however, has another kind of brilliant brilliance, which is very shocking.

Mrs. Cui was also shocked, probably because she could not imagine that there was such a handsome, noble and elegant man in the world.

Especially since this person will be able to ascend the throne in the future, occupy the highest position in the mountains and rivers, and control the vast country.

No wonder Cui Yun was so crazy about him, like a madman, and insisted on marrying him.

"Cough!" Shen Mo coughed lightly, and the three of them came back to their senses, then stepped forward to salute.

"The crabapple blossoms are in full bloom today. Please come and enjoy them with me." Yan Xingchuan spoke calmly, seeming to be particularly fond of this crabapple tree.

"yes."

The personal guards brought in tables and chairs, served hot tea, and invited everyone to sit down and talk.

Mr. Cui San was the most talkative person. After sitting down, he praised Yan Xingchuan:

"I've heard rumors before that the King of Northern Yan is handsome and majestic. Seeing him this time, I can see that his reputation is truly well-deserved. The Cui family is willing to serve the lord faithfully and will obey any orders he gives."

What was said above was a word of loyalty. Even if Yan Xingchuan didn't like to hear these flattering words, he would definitely not be unhappy about it.

Yan Xingchuan said, "I am well aware of Cui's loyalty. I will need Cui in many ways in the future. When the time comes, I hope Cui will do her best to fulfill her duties. I will not treat her unfairly."

"We will obey the king's orders."

Yan Xingchuan hummed, "How's your investigation going regarding those two visiting cards?"

When he asked about this, Mrs. Cui was flustered, but she quickly stood up and stepped forward, kneeling down.

"My Lord, please forgive me. This is the fault of me and my daughter Si Niang.

Si Niang has long admired the Master and her heart is set on marrying him, but she is not in good health, so we decided to send her a concubine as a dowry."

"Sixth Lady is the second daughter of the Cui family. Her status within the Cui family is particularly noble. Therefore, marrying Fourth Lady and Sixth Lady to her would not be an injustice to the master."

"I, your humble servant, was deeply troubled by my daughter and, in a moment of confusion, made a mistake. This led to all the subsequent events, causing unrest in the Cui family, disunity among the people, and even more upsetting to the Lord."

"I, your wife, deserve death."

Mrs. Cui denied it in front of the Cui family members and put the blame on Cui Yun.

But in front of Yan Xingchuan, she didn't dare to lie anymore, or say that it made no difference to Yan Xingchuan whether it was done by her or Cui Yun.

"You really deserve to die." Yan Xingchuan's tone was slightly cold.

Isn't that a crime worthy of death?

If it weren't for the mother and daughter making such a fuss, how could Cui Si have gotten engaged to someone else? Now he doesn't know how to get everything back on track.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Cui Sanye and Cui Jing's faces turned pale and they hurriedly apologized.

As the saying goes, when one prospers, all prosper, and when one suffers, all suffer. Mrs. Cui angered Yan Xingchuan, which was not good for the other members of the Cui family.

Yan Xingchuan said coldly, "Since you have chosen the person to marry me, you will be my wife, Yan Xingchuan, and the Queen of Northern Yan. This is not only a matter of great importance to the Cui family, but also to Northern Yan. Do you take me seriously by acting so recklessly?"

"I dare not." Mrs. Cui was terrified.

"Don't dare? If you dare to do it, what else can you not dare to do?" Yan Xingchuan's eyes were cold and fixed on her.

"You dare to force a frail, sickly woman, whom no one wants to marry, on me, my wife, the Queen of Yan. Do you think I'm a rag collector?"

Mrs. Cui was so frightened that she opened her mouth but couldn't say a word.

Yan Xingchuan was extremely annoyed. "Let me ask you, since you have done something wrong, how will the Cui family punish you?"

Third Master Cui said, "In reply to King Beiyan, the Patriarch is away at the moment, so we need to wait for his return before making a final decision."

"Very good, you are teasing me like this. If Cui doesn't give me a satisfactory answer, I will personally issue the order."

Since Madam Cui and Cui Yun dared to harm Cui Si, Yan Xingchuan naturally could not let them go.

But after all, they were the women of the Cui family, so he had to give some face to the Pingzhou aristocratic family and let them do it themselves.

If he did something wrong, he would seek justice.

"Yes, when the master returns, I will definitely give him a satisfactory explanation."

Mr. Cui Sanye and Cui Jing agreed immediately, but Mrs. Cui had cold sweat on her forehead and almost fainted.

She thought that the Cui family could not do anything to her and Cui Yun, but she never expected that the King of Northern Yan would insist on pursuing the matter, forcing the Cui family to severely punish her in order to show their loyalty.

Mrs. Cui's hands were shaking.

What should I do?

Who else can help her?

Yes, Queen!

If the queen has made her choice and the daughter of the Cui family becomes Yan Xingchuan's wife, and the queen tries to persuade him to be tolerant, maybe it will work out.

It would be great if A'an could become the queen, then everything would be solved.

But how can we make A'an the queen?

Mrs. Cui was just thinking about this when she heard Mr. Cui San ask, "I wonder if the master has decided which of the Cui girls he wants to marry? It was the Cui family's fault for not deciding on a single woman. So, whoever the master chooses, the Cui family will marry him."

"I'll choose," Yan Xingchuan raised an eyebrow. "Can Cui Liuniang also be chosen?"

Mr. Cui Sanye nodded immediately: "Of course..."

"Third Uncle." Cui Jing called him, reminding him, "Sixth Mother is engaged."
