"Brother, it's over, it's all over, the Cui family is really over, that bastard Gu Qiankuang, why did he do this?"
In the prison, Cui Wenyong's face was full of reluctance, grief and anger.
The once arrogant Cui family had fallen into such a state in such a short period of time. How could he not accept it?
His heart was filled with hatred and his teeth chattered.
Cui Wenhua also looked much older and said: "Why else? It's just to gain the support of the Shen family. There is no hope for the Ninth Prince's illness, so they can only find another way out."
"We were too careless."
Cui Wenyong cursed angrily: "Damn it, this bastard."
Cui Wenhua was much calmer in comparison and had obviously accepted this reality.
In front of the third princess and so many courtiers, this matter was irreversible. Fortunately, he had already prepared for the worst in advance.
"Have all the younger members of the family withdrawn?"
Cui Wenyong nodded, "Don't worry, brother, Yun Lin and Yun Hai have already evacuated, and they are far away by now."
"good!"
Cui Wenhua nodded, "As long as they are still there, there will be hope for the Cui family."
Cui Wenyong was still a little unwilling and asked: "Brother, can the queen save us?"
Cui Wenhua raised a bitter smile on his lips, "It's already this time and you're still thinking about this. You should be lucky that you didn't pull out the queen just now, otherwise..."
"Master Cui is indeed wise!"
While the two were talking, a faint voice suddenly came from the cell next door.
The two looked shocked and looked quickly.
I saw a man with disheveled hair and a face full of dirt, looking like a beggar, but with a pair of particularly sharp eyes.
"Who are you?"
Cui Wenhua's pupils shrank and he asked.
The beggar man smiled indifferently and said: "It doesn't matter who I am. What is important is that someone has entrusted me to bring a message to the Cui family master, so that the young master Cui Yunlin and the third master's young master Cui Yunhai are both well and well fed. Dress warmly.”
What?
Upon hearing this, their faces instantly turned pale.
"Asshole! Who are you? What did you do to them?"
Cui Wenyong was so angry that he tried to break through the cell railings, but unfortunately, his efforts were destined to be in vain.
The beggar man remained extremely calm, "Third Master, it's better not to waste your efforts. Besides, if you yell like this, you won't be afraid of provoking the jailer. If this is the case, you won't be able to hear what I say next."
Cui Wenhua's pupils shrank slightly, and he quickly stopped Cui Wenyong and stared at him.
"Who are you, Your Excellency?"
The beggar man smiled and said, "Master Cui is so smart, so he might as well make a guess."
Cui Wenhua was stunned, and then said: "Are you from the eldest prince?"
The beggar man grinned and said, "Let me tell you, Master Cui is so smart, how could he not know this?"
Cui Wenhua's teeth chattered, "You were the one who sent the Jin Kingdom envoy, and you deliberately uncovered the matter. You just wanted to provoke a conflict between the second prince and the third princess so that you could reap the benefits."
Cui Wenhua had already thought of this, and it was precisely because of this that he had been wary of the eldest prince and ignored Gu Qiankuang.
But unexpectedly, the eldest prince showed no reaction from the beginning to the end.
On the contrary, it was Gu Qiankuang who suddenly came out and gave the Cui family a fatal blow, causing the Cui family to fall to this day.
"Master Cui is indeed wise."
The beggar man's lips curved into a smile.
Cui Wenhua continued: "But Cui doesn't understand why you didn't do anything, but let Gu Qiankuang take advantage in vain."
"Now that Mr. Cui has been sent to prison, you are here, and it's already like this. What value does Mr. Cui have?"
The beggar man said: "Master Cui, why should you belittle yourself?"
"The Cui family has a long heritage and a profound foundation. The one who is being hit right now is just Yujing."
Cui Wenhua said: "What exactly do you want?"
The beggar man smiled and said, "Master Cui, don't be anxious. Before that, we might as well talk about the fate of the Cui family."
Regardless of whether Cui Wenhua agreed or not, he continued: "The Queen and the second prince have been banned. The second prince is most likely fine. After all, he is your majesty's flesh and blood. However, after this blow, it is inevitable to calm down for a while."
"As for the Queen, she should be fine for the time being. After all, Your Majesty also wants to save face, but it will be hard to say after that. Maybe when the matter subsides, she will find a reason to withdraw the title of Queen. As for spending the rest of her life in the cold palace, Anyway, it depends on the second prince’s future achievements.”
Both Cui Wenhua and Cui Wenhua looked ugly.
Although all this is expected, it is still a bit difficult to accept when it is really spread out.
The beggar man continued: "As for the Cui family, I'm afraid they have to be completely eliminated. Although it is Yujing that is damaged now, the Cui family's ancestral land will naturally not be spared." 33
Cui Wenyong said angrily: "Don't be alarmist here, the Cui family is not scared."
"Of course not the Cui family."
The beggar man chuckled, "But, hasn't Third Master seen it yet? The one who really wants the Cui family to be destroyed is His Majesty. All the crimes are just excuses to shut up the major families. Your Majesty has always wanted to solve the family problem." It’s no wonder that you are so powerful that you have threatened the imperial power, and you are backed by the Queen and the Second Prince.”
"Now that there is such a good opportunity, if the Third Master were His Majesty, would he eradicate the roots?"
"Besides, how do you know that this opportunity was not deliberately created? Then you can't miss it, right?"
What?
Cui Wenhua's pupils shrank and his face instantly turned pale.
"You said this opportunity was created deliberately? Then the eldest prince..."
The beggar man smiled and said, "Maybe the eldest prince is just following the trend?"
Cui Wenhua's face turned ugly, as if he had been awakened by something. His eyes were filled with disbelief. He looked straight at the beggar man and asked, "What on earth does he want to do?"
The beggar man smiled calmly, "As a prince, what can you do?"
"Master Cui and the Cui family have been busy for so many years, and for what reason?"
Cui Wenhua sneered and said: "He is wishful thinking. His background is destined to have no chance. Why not be a prince in peace and contentment?"
The beggar man smiled and said: "If the Cui family leader thought so, he would not marry his sister into the palace and poison the former queen. If so, he would still be the glorious head of the Cui family."
Cui Wenhua's eyes twitched, "What's the point of talking to Cui about this? Cui is already a prisoner and we can't help him."
"Besides, it's impossible to help unless all the other princes are dead."
The beggar man shook his head, "No! Even if all the other princes die, there will still be a new prince born, right?"
"you you……"
Cui Wenhua's pupils widened, as if he had seen a ghost.
Cui Wenyong on the side was also stunned, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
…
Some people died, but not completely...
