Chapter 264 The Cui Family Wants to Kill Him
If Shen Sui came with gifts, the Cui family would naturally be willing to give the Shen family face. Even if Cui Si was unwilling to show up, she could write a letter to tell Madam Lin that this was not her intention.
In this way, the matter can be resolved satisfactorily and everyone is happy.
But Chen Sui refused to do so. He immediately concluded that it was Cui Si's fault. It was Cui Si who harmed Lin Qingning, and she should go to Lin Qingning to apologize and admit her mistake.
To this end, he even personally brought people to Xianyang City, intending to take Cui Si to apologize to Lin Qingning and coax Lin Qingning into peace.
Perhaps he had been in a high and mighty position for too long and thought that everyone had to obey him, even the Cui family.
Or maybe he simply didn't take the Cui family seriously, thinking that asking Cui Si to apologize was no big deal, and that the Cui family's reputation was not worth mentioning.
In his heart, Lin Qingning was not wrong, and it was impossible for him to be not wrong. He had no intention of bowing his head and asking the Cui family for help. The only possibility was that Cui Si was wrong and should apologize.
Even if it is not wrong, if he thinks it is wrong, then it is wrong.
Thinking of this, Cui Changyou touched his chin and narrowed his eyes.
"Shen Dalang is the general of Northern Yan. I believe he should have the ability to distinguish right from wrong. Otherwise, he should just stop leading troops to war and stop being a general. He should just kill himself."
"I think it's not that Shen Dalang can't distinguish right from wrong, but he has ulterior motives." Cui Changyou said coldly.
When these words were spoken, many people were shocked and felt something was wrong.
"Eighth brother." Master Cui Si called out, his palms full of sweat.
He had been in a stalemate with Shen Sui for so long before, but in fact, he had controlled the matter by saying that "Shen Sui acted absurdly and unreasonablely". As for today's matter, as long as Shen Sui apologized to the Cui family, the matter could be let go for the sake of the fact that the two families were colleagues.
But if the matter is defined as 'Chen Sui has ulterior motives to attack the Cui family', then the matter will be serious.
Although it was a bit unfair to the Cui family, it would not benefit the Cui family or even Beiyan to make a big enemy with Shen Sui, or to openly stir up hatred between the Cui family and Shen Sui.
You should know that the Cui clan represents the Pingzhou and Yuanzhou clans, while Chen Sui represents the original generals of Northern Yan, which is equivalent to the grievances between the old and new ministers of Northern Yan.
Northern Yan hasn't conquered much territory yet, and its defenses are unstable, yet you're already starting internal strife?
This is a big taboo!
If the situation gets out of hand, it will cause chaos in Northern Yan. By then, the Northern Yan regime, which has just established its foundation, will likely be severely damaged, and it will be even more difficult for it to compete for supremacy again.
As a clan of Northern Yan, the Cui family probably won't have an easy time either.
However, Mr. Cui Si was concerned about too many things and thought a lot, but Cui Changyou did not have these concerns. He only knew that Shen Sui used such a ridiculous reason to bully the Cui family and wanted to get away with it. Don't even think about it.
He would be skinned alive if he didn't die.
The Cui family was in turmoil because it was he, Shen Sui, who instigated the struggle between the old and new ministers of Northern Yan, which led to internal discord in Northern Yan and the alienation of everyone, each of whom was planning for his own.
Even if Yan Xingchuan came in person, he would not be able to reassure people if he did not deal with Chen Sui.
Shen Sui dared to bring people to the door to ask for someone for a random reason. What would the clans in Pingzhou, Yuanzhou, Yunzhou and other places who later followed Northern Yan think?
Is the Cui family of today the same as my family of tomorrow? Can every general from Northern Yan call for our destruction for any random reason?
Cui Changyou continued, "Shen Dalang, I know that over the past year, my Cui Jing has gradually emerged and made great contributions in Northern Yan, competing with you. It is understandable that you have resentment in your heart and want to use this opportunity to eliminate my Cui family."
Shen Sui's expression changed drastically: "Stop talking nonsense!"
"What? Are you angry and embarrassed? Are you feeling guilty?"
Cui Changyou moved closer while speaking.
Shen Sui was so angry that he raised his hand and slapped over. The palm landed on Cui Changyou's shoulder. He flew a dozen feet away and fell to the ground, then spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Bright red blood splattered on the plaque at the entrance of the Cui family's block, a bright red patch, as if it were a fire that was going to burn people to ashes.
"Eighth Master!"
"Eighth brother!"
"uncle!"
When the Cui family members saw Cui Changyou being knocked away by Shen Sui's palm and vomiting blood, they rushed forward in a hurry.
One of Cui's sons carefully helped him up and asked, "Uncle, how are you?"
"I...I..." Cui Changyou raised his head slightly, with blood on the corner of his mouth, he looked through the crowd and glanced at the stunned Shen Sui. Then his body trembled, and he uttered "wow" again and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
There was a sudden blank in time.
There was a loud bang in Shen Sui's head, as if a huge wave was coming, or as if a sea of fire suddenly exploded.
At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind - the Cui family was going to kill him.
With a ridiculous reason, he brought people to the Cui family and injured the Cui family members.
While the Cui family members were still fighting on the battlefield, he dared to bully the Cui family like this by taking advantage of his power. What awaited him was the wrath of the clans in Pingzhou, Yuanzhou and other places as well as the Cui family.
Even if Yan Xingchuan came, it would be impossible to resolve the matter easily.
If we don't punish him severely, it will not be enough to appease the public anger and reassure the people.
"Eighth brother?! Eighth brother, what's wrong with you?!" Fourth Master Cui's face turned pale. Although he guessed that Cui Changyou might be acting, he was clearly spitting out blood, so he must have been injured.
"Uncle! Uncle!"
The Cui clan members were crying together, and were even furious. They looked at Shen Sui with murderous eyes.
Chen Sui: “…”
"I didn't mean to."
He was just mad at Choi Chang-woo.
"Catch him." Mr. Cui Si gave an order, and the Cui family soldiers came forward with weapons in hand and surrounded him.
"Shen Dalang bullied and injured my Cui family and members of my Cui family. He was imprisoned and is awaiting punishment by the head of the family and Sanlang."
"You dare!" Shen Sui's face turned black. He was the great general of Northern Yan, and the Cui family dared to put him in jail.
"I am the Great General of Northern Yan."
"Why not? So what if he is a general? Can a general bully others by taking advantage of his power?" Fourth Master Cui had a cold expression. Although he didn't know whether Cui Changyou was really injured or pretending to be injured, things had come to this point, and the Cui family would not allow Shen Sui to get away with it.
Even if I can't take his life, I must take his skin.
"If our Cui clan surrenders to Northern Yan, we will end up being bullied by everyone. Then what is the point of our loyalty to Northern Yan?"
"We, the descendants of the Cui family, shed blood and worked hard for Northern Yan, but in return we get bullied and humiliated like pigs and dogs by you, General Shen!
"Where is justice?"
