Chapter 274 He regretted it, really regretted it
Shen Sui was also filled with anger. God knows how many times he wanted to just turn around and leave, but he was worried that the Cui family would go crazy and really send troops to block the four states of Northern Yan from moving south.
By that time, Northern Yan would really be in civil strife.
"My lord, you came at the right time. Since the Cui family won't even let me in, I guess they have no intention of reconciliation. In that case, I will leave with you," said Shen Sui.
Fourth Master Cui snorted coldly, "Why do you have to act like our Cui family is disregarding the overall situation? Since it was Shen Dalang who did the wrong thing, why isn't he willing to even apologize?"
"They say they are here to reconcile, but I think they are just showing off their power by relying on the support of the Lord."
Chen Sui gritted his teeth: "Even if you want to apologize, you should let me in first."
"Apologize first, then go in and discuss the terms of reconciliation." Cui Changyou also spoke up, "Shen Dalang dared to cause trouble here, why doesn't he dare to apologize here?"
Cui Changyou glanced around and saw that it was raining. There were also many curious people gathered outside the block, waiting to see how the next show would unfold.
"Could it be that you feel ashamed? If you feel ashamed, why didn't you feel ashamed when you bullied my Cui family?"
Chen Sui: “…”
Yan Xingchuan: “…”
So one party is holding back and refusing to apologize, while the other party is waiting for the other party to apologize before discussing reconciliation.
Making trouble!
"Chen Sui," Yan Xingchuan said, "The Cui and Shen families were both meritorious officials of Northern Yan. Originally, we had no grudges against each other, and together we planned for Northern Yan's great cause. They were my right-hand men and left-hand men. You were the one who started this matter, and I, the king, am impartial. Is it reasonable for you to apologize first?"
It was reasonable, but Shen Sui still felt unhappy.
In his opinion, there are not many people in the world who can make him bow his head. How could the Cui family, a mere family, make the General of Northern Yan bow his head and apologize in person? He admitted that he was wrong, which was all to give face to the Cui family.
It was just that the Cui family relied on their status in Pingzhou and the support of Yan Xingchuan, so they dared to be so arrogant and demand that he apologize to the Cui family in front of so many people.
Shen Sui's expression grew increasingly gloomy.
"General Shen." Yan Xingchuan's tone also became serious.
Shen Sui's face looked a little ugly, knowing that Yan Xingchuan was angry, so he said: "Since the Lord has spoken, I apologize."
Fourth Master Cui said from the side, "It's not that you apologized because the Lord spoke. It's that you were wrong in the first place, and the Lord distinguished right from wrong and upheld justice, so he asked you to apologize. You're saying this as if the Lord was using his power to pressure you into an apology."
Upon hearing this, Yan Xingchuan also looked up at Chen Sui. To be honest, Chen Sui usually had an icy face in front of him, and he looked like this when he spoke occasionally.
He still looked at Yan Xingshan the same way as he did back then, as if he were an ignorant playboy. He always felt that Yan Xingshan was not working hard enough, not talented enough, and not capable enough to avenge the Yan family.
"Don't talk nonsense, this is not what I meant."
"You know clearly whether there is Shen Dalang or not."
The name "Shen Dalang" made the veins on Shen Sui's forehead jump.
He regretted it, he really regretted it. If he had known that calling out "Cui Liuniang" would cause the Cui family members to act like this, he would never have wanted to call out that name even if he was beaten to death.
These people really know how to be annoying.
"That's enough." Yan Xingchuan had no mood or time to listen to the verbal dispute between the two parties. You know, the two parties have been deadlocked for more than an hour, and if they continue to argue, the matter will not be resolved until dawn.
“General Shen, this happened because of you.”
"It's indeed because of me." No matter how reluctant Chen Sui was, Yan Xingchuan had already mentioned it twice, so he couldn't deny his respect. "In that case, I apologize."
"That day, I was impulsive and disturbed the Cui family. Shen is here, so I apologize to the Cui family."
Cui Changyou said, "And what about Liu Niang? You spoke rudely to Liu Nian, shouldn't you apologize to her?"
Chen Sui pressed the corner of his mouth: "I made a mistake in speaking, and I have to apologize to Cui... Madam Cui."
Cui Changyou snorted coldly: "Now you should behave yourself, Shen Dalang."
Shen Sui's face darkened slightly.
Fourth Master Cui said, "Today, the Lord came in person to mediate and asked General Shen to apologize. My Cui family also gave face to the Lord and the General of Northern Yan and accepted your apology."
It’s enough to humiliate Shen Sui. We can’t do anything about it anymore.
"But there is one more thing I want to ask General Shen."
"ask."
"General Shen said earlier that the marriage between General Shen and my Jiu Niang was off. Does it still count now?"
"Since you've said you're done, then it's definitely not going to count." Cui Changyou said from the side, "Although this marriage was arranged by the Lord and it's a good match between the Cui and Shen families, the Shen family looks down on me, and I'm not the kind of girl who would shamelessly marry into the Shen family. So let's just call it a day."
"It just so happens that the Lord is here today. The Cui family has also explained the situation to the Lord. It's not that the Cui family is unwilling to marry our daughter, but that the Shen family has no intention of marrying her and even insulted her. We ask the Lord to revoke the order and let the two of them live in peace."
Mr. Cui Si stared at Cui Changyou with wide eyes, obviously disapproving.
Cui Changyou also looked back at him and told him not to worry about it.
Yan Xingchuan felt a headache, fearing that Shen Sui would really say something like "forget it", so he spoke first: "Master Cui, this is General Shen's marriage, and the details depend on his own opinion."
"Besides, when he came to propose marriage that day, he was naturally very willing to this marriage."
"We'll discuss this later."
At this moment, Yan Xingchuan really wished that Shangguan Tong or Xu Daozhen were around.
Dealing with these things is really more troublesome than fighting a war.
Cui Changyou waved his sleeves and said, "Okay, since the master has said so, the Cui family will also give the master this face and wait for General Shen's opinion before discussing this matter."
"It's late today. Let's talk about it another day. Fourth brother, please escort the master to Xianyang Huayuan."
Cui Changyou didn't want to pay much attention to these people. If there was no man in charge of the second branch of the family, and his second brother seemed to have gone stupid from studying too much, he wouldn't care about this nonsense.
As expected, this family would fall apart without him!
Mr. Cui Si was also afraid that Cui Changyou would say something offensive if he got angry, so he was happy to take over the task and rode to Xianyang Huayuan with Yan Xingchuan and others.
After everyone left, the Cui clan land was empty, and Cui Changyou began to drive people away: "And you guys, quickly disperse, it's dark, what are you doing hanging around out here?"
Some of Cui's descendants came over.
"Eighth Uncle, are we just going to let this matter go?"
"When Cui Changyou saw that he was a little bit dog-like and his eyes were moving rapidly, he asked him, "What's the matter? What are you paying attention to?"
The man leaned close to Cui Changyou's ear and said, "I saw some children in the tribe throw firecrackers into the toilet, and it exploded with a bang. Why not let them..."
