Chen Jue had someone check Zhang Zhaoping's achievements in Xuzhou.
The fact that the ears of grain here grow so well is, as Zhang Jiaer said, due to her father's contribution.
Zhang Zhaoping is very skilled in agriculture, so he arranged people to work under Cui Zhongli and let him continue to do what he likes.
It can be regarded as finding a helper for Cui Zhongli.
Cui Zhongli is obsessed with agriculture, and Zhang Zhaoping is also a leader in agriculture. Cui Zhongli must be grateful that he found a good helper for him.
In Luojing City, Cui Zhongli devoted himself to studying the book given to him by his Majesty, day and night.
Hearing that His Majesty transferred a Xuzhou Prefecture Order to his staff, Cui Zhongli only frowned slightly, and then quickly disappeared.
He still had that calm look on his face.
But on his way back to his house, Cui Zhongli, who was sitting on the carriage, was no longer as calm as before.
Cui Zhongli held the tea cup in his hand, but did not take a sip. It was not until "Master, we are here" was shouted from outside that he came to his senses, put down the tea cup and got out of the car.
At this time, a clear and melodious sound of bells came from far to near.
Cui Zhongli stood in front of the carriage, turned around and saw a luxurious carriage slowly approaching.
There are four bells hanging on the carriage, and the sound of the bells heard earlier came from it.
Seeing the frame of the car, Cui Zhongli quickly knew who was sitting in the car.
That is Princess Fengyi’s bicycle frame.
What he didn't expect was that there was Cui Wulang in the car.
Seeing Cui Wulang get off Princess Fengyi's car, Cui Zhongli was just slightly confused, and then his expression changed quickly.
"My lord, please pay homage to Princess Fengyi." Even though he knew that the Princess Fengyi in front of him was not liked by His Majesty, Cui Zhongli still bowed politely.
Regardless of his expression or actions, he was extremely respectful.
"Cui Shangshu is free of charge." The girl's voice came through the car curtain.
Then a pair of bright white hands gently lifted the side curtain.
After a while, a pretty woman in luxurious clothes poked her head out with a smile.
"Did Cui Shangshu just come back?"
"Your Highness, that's right." Cui Zhongli replied respectfully.
Listening to Cui Zhongli's respectful reply, Princess Fengyi seemed to be transported back to the time when the late emperor was still there.
At that time, no matter where she went, the people below were so respectful to her and even flattered her.
But after the eldest prince forced the palace to rebel in the abandoned palace a few years ago, she, Princess Fengyi, was no longer as respected and favored as before.
Even when she returned to Luojing, the ladies and daughters from aristocratic families mostly laughed at her when they saw her.
The only two people who still respect her are this person and that person in front of her——
As if she thought of something, Princess Fengyi pursed her lips and chuckled.
Forget it, he and I have no fate after all, don’t think about it!
Princess Fengyi suppressed the sadness in her eyes, looked at Cui Wulang next to her, and then resumed her previous smile.
"I have not been back to Luo Jing for many years, and I am almost unfamiliar with Luo Jing. Today I would like to thank you for traveling to Luo Jing with Wu Langjun, who made me familiar with Luo Jing a lot."
Princess Fengyi's eyes were filled with smiles, making Cui Wulang outside suddenly lose his mind.
Cui Wulang saluted and said: "I don't dare, I don't dare. It is Wulang's honor to travel with the princess."
"Mr. Sir, you don't have to be too modest. I am indeed very happy to travel with you today. There are not many people who are still willing to travel with me today."
Princess Fengyi waved her hands and laughed at herself.
Perhaps she felt it was inappropriate to say such words at this time, so she quickly returned to smiling.
After watching Princess Fengyi's carriage go away, Cui Zhongli looked at Cui Wulang again.
"Wulang, when did you and Princess Fengyi get so close?"
Cui Zhongli looked like a patriarch, looking at his nephew who had never seen him before.
"Back to uncle, my nephew once rescued the princess when he was in Linzhou. Now the princess has returned to Luojing. Thinking of her unfamiliarity with Luojing, I invited her to travel with her."
Cui Wulang knew that his uncle was shrewd, so he didn't dare to hide anything in front of him, so he told him directly.
Of course, he was not afraid of the uncle going to investigate.
He did save the princess in Linzhou, and he did have several contacts with the princess after returning to Luojing. This is all true.
Even if he asked, Cui Wulang only said "I love Princess Fengyi and want to pursue her", who can say anything?
It is not too much to say that a gentle lady is a good gentleman.
Of course, Cui Zhongli didn't interfere so much. He just said "Don't lose your sense" and left.
That night, Cui Zhongli looked at the information collected by the secret guards and was so angry that he picked up the tea cup on the table and threw it to the ground.
The tea cup fell apart instantly.
Cui Yan pushed the door open and came in, and a piece of debris fell on his footsteps.
He looked down at the scene and smiled, "What makes father so angry?"
With that said, Cui Yan called the maid to come in and clean, while he sat aside with his legs crossed, not looking straight.
There was still a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth, and his eyes kept falling on the cleaning maid.
When Cui Zhongli saw him like this, he got angry and said, "Can you sit down properly? If you don't sit or stand, you'll just hang out in the flower house all day long."
"You should learn from Wang Yuanqi. As long as you are half as good as him, your father will not be angry!"
"Why should I study with Wang Yuanqi if I have nothing to do?"
"Not learn!"
Cui Yan looked absent, which made Cui Zhongli want to pick up the whip in his hand and whip it at him.
Unfortunately, he didn't have a whip.
"If you don't want to imitate Wu Lang, Wu Lang still knows how to climb up to Princess Fengyi. It's better for you to do nothing but eat, drink and have fun!"
Cui Zhongli was angry with this loser.
Upon hearing "Cui Wulang", Cui Yan raised his eyebrows and knew why his father was so angry.
The second room must have done something else.
Thinking of what he saw recently, Cui Yan shook his head and sneered.
He said: "A lame man still wants to cling to the royal princess? It's like a toad wants to eat swan meat!"
"What? When did my father get so free and get so angry because Wu Lang wanted to cling to the princess?"
Cui Yan jumped up and came to the table. He lowered his head and glanced at the information on the table. He suddenly smiled.
"I'm telling you!" Cui Yan picked up the information on the table and looked at it with interest.
After reading it, Cui Yan narrowed his eyes and said with a smile that seemed to be both righteous and not evil, "Interesting!"
"What an interesting ghost!" Cui Zhongli said as if he had crossed him, "Your second uncle and Wu Lang are very ambitious. Once your Majesty finds out, our Qinghe Cui family will be the next Xie family!"
Because of this, Cui Zhongli supported His Majesty in running the imperial examinations and reforming education, and even took half of the money.
What for?
Because I don’t want to become the next Mr. Xie!
Today's Majesty is different from previous kings. He is not afraid of troubles from the family, or in other words, he wants the family to cause trouble, and he also wants the family to take action.
In this way, he has a reason to take action against the noble family. Even if there is no reason, he can still find a reason.
