Chapter 95 What’s the point of me going there? I’m going there to kill people!
The sun was shining brightly outside, and the sunlight was pouring down to the sky and earth, making Cui Hao's face slightly red.
She felt a little embarrassed: "How about... maybe next time."
Cui Si said, "Then I'll have to wait for him to propose marriage next time."
"In this world, with General Shen going to war again, not to mention before you marry him, even if you marry him in the future, before the world is at peace, it is normal for you and him to be apart for a long time."
"The last time he came, he left in a hurry and you didn't even get to say a word. This time he comes and leaves again tomorrow. Are you really not going to go see him?"
When Cui Hao heard this, he indeed hesitated.
She said, "Then... I'll send someone to ask around. I'll go when he comes back."
Cui Si nodded and smiled. "Your marriage to him was decided suddenly, but he is a good person and a good match for you. If you can cultivate your relationship, you will have a harmonious marriage in the future. It will be a good match."
"Is it like Sister?" Cui Hao asked her. "Sister's marriage to Mr. Jiang was sudden, but both Sister and Mr. Jiang are dedicated to each other, hoping for a harmonious relationship and a fulfilling life."
"Yes." Cui Si nodded, "Mr. Jiang and I are the same."
After talking with Cui Hao for a while, Cui Si was worried that something might go wrong with Master Cui Wu's ghost marriage when she was not at home, so she wrote down the things that needed attention and planned to give them to Master Cui Er and Cui Changyou.
Finally, he called Cui Ping over and instructed him on some things.
Mr. Cui Er and Cui Changyou are not in charge of the inner house. Old Mrs. Xu is old and in poor health, so it is best not to overwork her, so the matter can only be handed over to Cui Ping.
After explaining everything, she reached out and frowned, feeling a little tired.
Suddenly I felt that I was really destined to be a hard-working person, worrying about this and that.
Before she could finish her sigh, Old Mrs. Xu arrived.
"Why did you go to Chongshan Pass?" Old Lady Xu asked, expressing her confusion. "It's fine for Jiang Xiaolang to go. He's a doctor, and he can help the dying and the wounded. He's definitely useful, but what's the point of you going?"
Cui Si thought to herself:
What’s the point of me going there? I’m going there to kill people!
Unless someone punishes him, he will never take his life seriously.
However, she had also prepared a response for her family: "Chongshan Pass is surrounded by impassable mountains and cliffs on both sides, forming a gap in the middle, blocking the Northern Yan army's path."
"You should know that the two armies are currently in a stalemate. I have some ideas on how to attack this pass."
"I've mentioned this to my third brother before, and he thinks it's somewhat useful. However, the matter is of great importance, and it's unwise to just talk about it on paper. I'm going there in person to discuss it with the generals."
"If it really has a miraculous effect, it would be a great benefit."
"Really?" Old Mrs. Xu was a little skeptical. "When did you start thinking about fighting?"
Of course it's fake.
If it was true, why would she hide it and not say a word?
However, if she went there in person to take a look, perhaps there really was a magic solution.
"You don't understand. Your granddaughter is well-read, and she's not just good at writing poetry. If we talk about talent, even if she's not very capable, she can still rival your third brother."
"You forgot that the strategy for governing Pingzhou back then was proposed by my granddaughter."
The oppression of the common people by the aristocratic families has never been lacking. The Cui family prides themselves on being noble and upright, but they also occupy most of the land in Pingzhou.
Seeing the advent of troubled times and the rise of uprisings in various places, Cui Si proposed to her grandfather, who was still alive, the strategy of "showing kindness to the people and defending Pingzhou firmly."
As a result, the common people returned to their farms, and the noble families and common people of Pingzhou worked together to defend Pingzhou.
Just imagine, the world outside is in chaos and human life is less important than that of chickens and dogs.
In Pingzhou, the people have fields and land, and they can live a decent life without having to struggle in this chaotic world.
Not to mention men, even the elderly, the weak, women and children will fight to defend their homes.
It was also because of these actions that benefited the people that the Cui family's status in Pingzhou became increasingly respected, and Pingzhou was almost a place where the Cui family had the final say.
The Cui family said they wanted to surrender to the King of Northern Yan, and the people trusted them very much.
Chen Mo and Patriarch Cui's recovery of various places in Pingzhou was actually just a formality. A lot of time was spent on the road. Occasionally they would encounter one or two unscrupulous families or officials, which would delay them for some time.
Mrs. Xu thought about this old story and was silent for a while. She tapped the ground with her cane.
"You do have the spirit of my grandmother, but unfortunately, your skills are so poor. Otherwise, you could be a female general."
After saying this, Mrs. Xu was silent for a long time.
"Since it's such an important matter, go ahead and go. Grandmother won't stop you. But you must be careful and don't rush ahead like your fifth brother."
"Your grandmother is old, and she can't bear the pain of seeing her son die."
Cui Si felt a little sad when she heard this. Looking at the white hair on Old Lady Xu's head, she felt indescribable for a moment.
She had said before that she would stay in Xianyang to accompany the old lady for the rest of her life, but she eventually broke her promise.
"Don't worry." Cui Si said, "On this trip, General Shen will be with us. When we reach Chongshan Pass, the Northern Yan army will be there."
“When we return, the matter of Chongshan Pass should be resolved, and General Shen Xiao should come to Cui’s to propose marriage, and he will probably travel together.”
Old Lady Xu thought about it and it made sense. She had heard a lot about the abilities of the young general Chen Mo. With him by her side, Cui Si would definitely be safe.
"That's fine, come back early after you finish this."
"yes."
After persuading the old lady, Cui Si secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to think about how to attack Chongshan Pass.
.
On the other side, Cui Jing rode a carriage to the gate of the Wang family.
When Mr. Wang heard that Cui Jing had arrived, he stopped fishing and quickly asked someone to invite him over.
"Sanlang, you are finally here. I heard that you are now highly valued by the King of Beiyan. It's embarrassing that you still remember my Wang family. Hahaha~~~"
"You're joking. No matter how far one goes, one must never forget this." Cui Jing smiled and greeted Mr. Wang.
"Jingzhi has the audacity to come to my house today. Please don't blame Jingzhi for being rude, old man."
"No, no, I'm very happy that you can come to see an old man like me. Please stay for dinner today and call your father over so that we can have a few drinks."
"Thank you for your kindness, old man. However, Jingzhi came back in a hurry this time. He returned today and will have to return to Chongshan Pass early tomorrow morning. He will have to accompany the two old ladies at home later in the evening, so he can only come next time."
"So urgent?" Mr. Wang asked him with a gleam in his eyes.
"What's the current situation at Chongshan Pass? Can the Northern Yan army win?"
"Look, Dalang and Erlang from our Wang family, can they go with you?"
