Chapter 120 I didn’t beat him, it was Lady Six who beat him
"I...I don't know, but I don't want to marry my fifth and third cousins."
Speaking of this, Yan Suxin was a little embarrassed, "Fifth cousin is so big, I don't like him."
"When my third cousin was little, he used to scare me with bugs. I didn't like that either, and I always felt... always felt..."
"What do you always feel?"
"I always feel that my third cousin is particularly scary."
"Terrible?" Cui Si laughed suddenly.
This was the first time she heard a girl say that Cui Jing was scary. She would write a letter to him when she got back, to make him smile and ask him to be gentler, so as not to scare away his future wife.
"Why do you think he's scary?"
"Just...just..." Yan Suxin stammered and couldn't say anything.
Cui Si didn't insist on asking for a reason. Seeing this, she smiled and said, "Since you don't like him, don't worry. None of your cousins will force you to marry him."
"However, the Yan family intends to find you a marriage that will be useful to the Yan family. You need to think carefully about who you want to marry."
"If you've made up your mind, tell your parents or grandmother, and they'll choose from the people you want. If you don't say anything, they'll choose for you."
Yan Suxin has no ability to be independent, and she can't escape the Yan family. If the Yan family wants her to get married, she will have to marry eventually. In this case, the smartest thing to do is to think about who she wants to marry.
Cui Si stopped talking here, and then drank with Yan Suxin. After finishing a pot of osmanthus wine, Yan Suxin said goodbye and left, and she went back to the room to rest.
The next morning, she said goodbye to the Yan family, left Pingzhou City with her people, and returned to Xianyang City.
Because they were very close to home, Cui Si was eager to return and did not want to delay any longer on the road, so she asked people to speed up and rush to Pingzhou City. When it was almost midnight, the group arrived outside the gate of Xianyang City.
The city gates are closed after nightfall, and no one is allowed to enter or leave during this time. However, if members of the Cui family have urgent matters, they can be exceptions.
Cui Si was a person who would never compromise herself, so she asked someone to take her sign away and asked the city guards to open the gate.
After a while, a member of the Cui family came to the city gate, saw Cui Si get off the carriage, recognized her, and then came down and opened a crack in the door to get out.
"Sixth Lady, why are you back at this time? Aren't you at Chongshan Pass?"
"After finishing the business in Chongshan City, I saw nothing to worry about, so I came back."
"Then these people..."
"Some are my guards, and some are soldiers from the Northern Yan army." Cui Si asked the Yanyun Guard to bring the token. "These are all people specially sent by the King of Northern Yan to escort me back to Xianyang City."
On the bronze plate were the two words "Yanyun".
After recognizing these two words, the other person's hand trembled.
Yanyun, Yanyunwei!
Who dares to stop this?
"Sixth Lady, please hurry into the city. It's late at night now, so please move slowly and don't disturb the people."
"I know." She was the one who made the rule, how could she not know it.
"Open the city gate." Following the order from the Cui family member, the city gate at the rear opened a passage that only allowed carriages to pass through, allowing people to pass.
Cui Si ordered her men to travel slowly, and by the time they reached the entrance to the Cui clan's land in the east of the city, half an hour had passed.
Cui Si asked her guards to take the horses and people to rest, and she, Song Lu and Jiang Cinian went home in a carriage together.
When they arrived at the door of the second branch of the Cui family, several people from the Cui family who had just received the news were already waiting at the door. When they saw Cui Si get off the carriage, they hurried forward.
Old Madam Xu snorted, "Oh, who was it? It turns out to be Princess Wang who came late at night."
Cui Si laughed out loud, walked quickly forward and hugged her: "Old lady, A Si misses you."
Mrs. Xu was hugged by her, and the words on her lips paused, then hummed a few words:
"You missed me? I guess you didn't. If you did, why would it take you so long to come back? I think you've all grown wings and are ready to fly away, leaving me, an old lady, feeling sorry for being left alone in an empty nest."
The old lady was really angry and even said something like "staying alone in an empty nest".
Cui Si said, "How can you be alone in an empty nest? You still have two children and several grandchildren around you."
Old Mrs. Xu was even more angry after being blocked: "You keep saying it, keep saying it, if I don't punish you for one day, you will go to heaven, right?"
"No, no." Cui Si supported her and walked inside. "Although it is summer, it is still a little cool at night. It is my granddaughter who has tired you out, isn't it? Grandma, don't worry. Unless it is something serious, I will never leave Xianyang City easily."
Mrs. Xu continued to hum and asked her, "What is a big deal?"
"Oh, it was probably a big problem that I could solve that no one else could. I couldn't just sit back and watch. Grandmother, I'm a princess now. Are you happy?"
"Happy, of course I'm happy. Our good grandson is great. Being a princess is better than being a queen. With the title, you can marry whoever you want."
"I heard that you conquered Chongshan City at Chongshan Pass. You're truly amazing, just like my grandmother back then. Please tell me the details."
"Okay, okay, I'll stay here tonight and have a long chat with you."
The grandfather and grandson walked together, ignoring everyone behind them.
Cui Changyou nudged Jiang Cinian and said, "Don't mind. The old lady is a little angry. We need to comfort her."
"Of course I don't mind." Jiang Chenian smiled, "Sixth Lady also misses the old lady."
Cui Changyou invited him to his yard and asked someone to bring up some tea.
Cui Changyou personally poured him tea and asked, "Did the King of Northern Yan say anything when you went to Chongshan Pass this time?"
"What?"
"He's seen Liu Niang, so is he going to let you go back like this?"
Jiang Ci Nian smiled and said, "Don't think too badly of the King of Northern Yan. I've actually talked to him about this before."
"What are you talking about?"
What to talk about, of course, is Cui Si.
Come to think of it, it's a bit strange that he and Yan Xingchuan can sit down and have a good talk given their relationship.
"You know who the Sixth Lady is, and so does she. Now that she's made her decision, there's no turning back. If he continues to force it, it will only make the Sixth Lady resent and annoy him, and she'll only drift further and further away from him."
He let go, and the two of them had a chance to sit together and talk and drink a cup of tea.
If Yan Xingchuan really cared about Cui Si, he would have no other choice.
Besides, he couldn't bear to see Cui Si sad.
Let go, give her a respectable position, give her power, this was his final decision.
Jiang Cinian is open-minded. He doesn't care how much feelings Yan Xingchuan has for Cui Si, or how much he has done for Cui Si. As long as Yan Xingchuan doesn't force Cui Si to do something she doesn't want to do, it doesn't matter.
"Later, he said he hoped I would take good care of Liu Niangzi and not do anything to let her down."
Cui Changyou sighed with emotion after hearing this. He reached out and patted Jiang Cinian on the shoulder: "You are really amazing. You can even win the fight against the King of Northern Yan for people."
"I didn't beat him." Jiang Cinian shook his head, "Sixth Lady beat him."
