Chapter 270 If I kneel at the door, will she soften her heart?
Yan Xingchuan felt a little guilty when he thought of this. He left suddenly, and although the mess he left behind was not a terrible one, it still made the mother and son worry about it for a long time.
It took many more years, until the laws were perfected and the imperial examination system was implemented to select officials, before the turmoil was finally calmed down.
In this life, he has to set up the rules first.
Merits cannot offset sins, and there is a sword hanging over everyone's head.
"Come with me to Xianyang to apologize to the Cui family. Northern Yan cannot afford internal strife. This time, you have no choice but to go."
Yan Xingchuan made a decision with a firm attitude, leaving no room for Shen Sui.
The next day, he asked someone to call Chen Sui and set out for Xianyang City together.
Yan Xingchuan was a little nervous when he set out.
In the past, he wished to be closer to her, and would have liked to see her every day. But now that they were approaching Xianyang City, he began to feel afraid.
The closer he got, the more uneasy he became.
When the sun set and its afterglow fell on the walls of Xianyang City, the group arrived at Xianyang City.
Yan Xingchuan sat on his horse, looking at the city wall for a long time, not daring to go inside.
"Master, if you don't enter the city now, the city gate will be closed." Yun Gang reminded him.
Yan Xingchuan's mouth was dry. He asked, "Do you think I can see her this time? If I do, will she let me go?"
Or maybe she could just ask him to stay with Lin Qingning for a long time and not to bother her again.
Yun Gang didn't dare to say whether it would happen or not, after all, that person had a stubborn temper.
It's quite bad.
Yan Xingchuan thought for a moment and then said, "If she refuses to see me, will she relent if I kneel at the door?"
Yan Yunwei: “???”
Chen Sui: “!!!”
They recognize each word individually, so why can't they understand when they put them together?
Shen Sui was shocked and angry, thinking that this Cui girl was really a vixen who could have bewitched his master to this extent.
kneel?
It’s a wonder he could think of that!
Yun Gang thought about it and actually suggested, "Why don't you kneel in private so no one can see you."
Chen Sui: “?!”
"Yun Gang!" Chen Sui was a little angry, "Don't talk nonsense, the master is the King of Northern Yan, how can he kneel down casually?"
Yun Gang was completely disdainful of him: "This is all caused by you, General Shen. You've caused the Lord to have to bow his head and apologize. What's wrong with kneeling down? As long as no one sees, it's their private matter."
"Today is not only about the Lord and Princess, but also General Shen's marriage. We also need to deal with it. General Shen withdrew the engagement very happily. He just said it was over. After all, it's not his marriage, and his life or death has nothing to do with you."
"General Shen is so unlucky that he only met a brother like you."
"you--"
"Alright." Yan Xingchuan was in a bad mood and didn't want to listen to their quarrel. "Let's go into the city. If you delay any longer, the city gate will be closed."
Yun Gang and Shen Sui had to temporarily cease fighting, but Yun Gang reminded him, "General Shen, the Lord brought you here today to apologize to the Cui family. At least put aside your condescending attitude, or the Cui family will think you've brought people to attack them again."
Shen Sui took a deep breath, frowned and said nothing.
Everyone rode into the city on horseback.
A soldier guarding the gate recognized the visitor and reported it to the garrison general. Then the garrison general came to pay them a visit and personally led them to the Cui clan's land.
When they arrived at the entrance of the neighborhood, the Cui family members also got the news and came to greet them.
"No need to bow." Yan Xingchuan saw everyone kneeling on the ground, then he dismounted and walked over. "Who is in charge of the clan now?"
"It's me." Fourth Master Cui stepped forward. "The head of the family and Sanlang are not with the clan. I will make the decisions on minor matters, and discuss major matters with the third branch of the direct lineage and the clan elders."
Yan Xingchuan nodded, then said: "I came here today to apologize to the Cui family. General Shen made a mistake in a moment of impulse."
Fourth Master Cui bowed, not daring to accept it: "The Cui family is afraid to accept the master's apology. Moreover, since it was Shen Dalang who made the mistake, even if an apology is required, it is Shen Dalang's business. How can we let the master take over?"
Shen Sui frowned when he heard the word 'Shen Dalang'.
The Cui family really holds grudges.
Cui Siye said again: "My Lord, please come in."
"good."
Yan Xingchuan nodded, then led his men inside.
Shen Sui also followed with his men, but was immediately stopped by Cui's men.
"Shen Dalang, please go back. You are not welcome in our Cui family."
"That's right, go back quickly."
Yan Xingchuan looked back, then simply ignored him and walked away.
Since it's an apology, it's normal to be embarrassed by others. I just hope he can be honest and not conflict with the Cui family again, otherwise it will really get out of hand.
However, seeing Shen Sui being called 'Shen Dalang' by the Cui family, Yan Xingchuan felt relieved.
You deserve it. I called you rude.
"What did you call me?" Shen Sui frowned.
"Shen Dalang."
"That's right, Shen Dalang, why can't we call him that? Could it be that your last name isn't Shen, but Shen's Dalang?"
Leaving Shen Sui behind, Yan Xingchuan and Mr. Cui Si and his group walked towards the Cui clan's land.
"How is your Third Elder Madam's health lately? Is Princess Wang well?"
"Everything is fine, everything is fine. Third Aunt has been in good health recently. She often goes to the theater and drinks tea with old friends when she has free time. Princess Wang is fine too. When she misses her family, she goes home. When she wants some peace and quiet, she stays in Yayuan. However, Eighth Brother has been injured recently, and they are very worried."
"My Lord, it's not that my Cui family wants to cause trouble. In fact, this General Shen has gone too far in bullying us. If my Cui family just tolerates this, who will take my family seriously in the future?"
"Asking Wang Ji to apologize to Madam Lin is even more impossible. Not to mention that Wang Ji is the princess of Northern Yan, she is also a noble lady of my Cui family. Even if she is not, since she has done nothing wrong, there is no reason for her to apologize to anyone."
"Our Cui family has always been a family that values righteousness and reason."
"I know." The Cui family's reputation is rare among the many clans in the world.
There are many clans in the world that oppress the people. It is considered good if they have no merits or faults. There are very few like the Cui family that are united with the people and loved by the people.
It can be said that if the Cui family wants to do something, the people of Pingzhou will be the first to respond, and if anyone wants to touch the Cui family, the people of Pingzhou will be the first to disagree.
Even later, when Yan Du was in power, the Cui family had two marquises, and the emperor of the time was still of the Cui family bloodline. The Cui family had always managed their members very strictly and was not greedy for power or money.
As the group walked, they arrived at the gate of the second branch of the Cui family.
At this time, the gate was closed and there was no one guarding the door.
When a gust of wind blew, the lanterns under the corridor swayed slightly, as if it was a mansion that had long been deserted.
Mr. Cui was embarrassed for a moment, then said, "Maybe no one is home... How about this, Master, go sit in the main house?"
"It's okay." Yan Xingchuan's expression didn't change at all. He walked up the stairs and went forward to knock on the door.
"A'si, please ask someone to open the door."
