Chapter 165 Cui Che’s son-in-law

The bustle at the entrance of the courtyard attracted a crowd of students from Weishui Academy. A seven-year-old black-faced boy was mixed in the crowd. He and his classmates looked curiously at Cui Che, the senior brother the teacher often talked about.

Weishui Academy was famous in later generations for its dedication to cultivating Zhongliang during the Sui Dynasty. Cui Che, Yang Xuangan and other loyal ministers emerged one after another.

The young man's name was Li Mi, and he was destined to follow in the footsteps of his senior brothers in the future, serve the Sui Dynasty with all his heart, and die.

He came from a famous family. His great-grandfather was Li Bi, the Duke of Wei, one of the Eight Pillar States of the Western Wei Dynasty. His father, Li Kuan, was favored by his ancestors and was now worshiped by the Shangzhu State and granted the title of Duke of Pushan County.

Xu Wenyuan did not accept young children before, and Cui Che also deliberately staged a painful drama before he got his wish.

But the predecessors planted trees, and the descendants enjoyed the shade. With Cui Che as his proud disciple, Xu Wenyuan also opened the door to smart young people, and Li Mi was one of them.

While Cui Che was chatting with his mentor, he glanced at the crowd with the corner of his eye and recognized Li Mi, his younger brother, at a glance.

He was not acquainted with Li Mi, but because of the records in the "Old Book of Tang: Biography of Li Mi", he knew that he had a dark face, and among the students in the academy, there were only a few people of Li Mi's age.

"This junior brother has become a disciple of his mentor at such a young age. He must be extremely intelligent."

Cui Che pointed at Li Mi and laughed with Xu Wenyuan.

Everyone followed what Cui Che pointed and turned their attention to Li Mi. Although Li Mi was surprised, he was not panicked at all.

Xu Wenyuan introduced Cui Che:

"He is the son of Pushan County Duke after Wei Wugong."

Then he greeted Li Mi:

"Why don't you come forward to greet your senior brother?"

Duke Li Bi of the State of Wei was given the posthumous title Wu, so he was called Duke Wu of Wei.

Hearing this, Li Mi quickly stepped forward, saluted Cui Che in a dignified manner and said:

"I will learn from Li Mi and pay my respects to my senior brother."

Cui Che helped him up, looked at him carefully and said with a smile:

"When Cui became a disciple of his mentor, he was still at the same age as his younger brother. His mentor was a scholar of heaven and earth. If you keep studying hard, you will definitely achieve great things in the future."

Li Mi was very excited when he heard this.

No matter how outstanding he will be in the future, he is only a seven-year-old boy now, and Cui Che has experienced the great victory on the White Road, the battle of weakly falling into the water, and the victory over the Turkic royal court. He can be called a famous general in the world.

Cui Che's encouragement was heard in Li Mi's ears, and how could he not feel excited about it?

Xu Wenyuan's face was filled with smiles. He even accepted him as a Bodhisattva slave without following the rules.

Cui Che also bluntly told Xu Wenyuan that the Bodhisattva slave was young and he did not expect to learn much knowledge.

I just hope that my mentor can teach me some principles on how to behave in the world.

After all, Cui Che is really afraid that this kid will think that he is related to the Yang family, and is determined to go through fire and water for the Yang family for generations.

Cui Che also called Li Mi and asked the Bodhisattva slave to get closer to this senior brother in the future.

As the saying goes, those who are close to vermillion are red, those who are close to ink are black. With this arrangement, I believe that the Bodhisattva slave will not go astray in the future and really become a loyal minister of the Yang family.

Leaving his son at Weishui Academy, Cui Che said goodbye to his mentor, and paid homage to Li Chong outside the city before Cui Che entered the city.

When I got home, Li Min was already waiting at my house.

"My nephew pays homage to Lord Wucheng."

"No need to be polite."

Cui Che looked at his future son-in-law carefully and found that he was indeed a talented person.

But because he was afraid that he might be skinny on the outside, but his belly would turn out to be grassy and like an embroidered pillow, Cui Che asked:

"After you became a general, did you ever learn martial arts?"

"My father was killed by the Turks, and my nephew is determined to take revenge. He has been practicing riding and shooting since he was a child, and he does not dare to slack off at all."

After saying that, Li Min knelt down and kowtowed to Cui Che, saying sincerely:

"It's just that my nephew is young and thought there was no hope of revenge. Fortunately, Duke Wucheng punished him diligently and avenged his father's murder. He was a great kindness and kindness that will never be forgotten."

Li Min's father, Li Chong, was killed by the Ground Patrol Department when he was serving as the general manager of Youzhou. Cui Che's destruction of the Ground Guard Department naturally avenged his father's revenge. Li Min was full of respect for his future father-in-law.

Cui Che quickly helped Li Min up and comforted him:

"Cui is also loyal to the country, so why do you need to repay him?"

When Yang Lihua saw that the two of them were getting along well with each other, a heartfelt smile appeared on her face. She said to Cui Che:

"You are not asking about martial arts. Min'er is also proficient in singing and dancing. Her talent is the best among the princes' children."

Although Li Min's family background is prominent, how could he have been chosen by Yang Lihua as her beloved daughter's husband if he hadn't caught Yang Lihua's eye with his talents.

"The princess is so complimentary, but in front of Duke Wucheng, how dare Min dare to claim her talent?"

Li Min said modestly.

Cui Che patted Li Min on the shoulder and said with a smile:

"No need to belittle yourself, it's still early today, why don't you go out for a hunting trip with me?"

"My little nephew dares to disobey me."

When Cui Che left with Li Min, Yu Wenying came out from behind the screen.

Yang Lihua smiled at her and said:

"Are you still satisfied?"

Yuwen Eying blushed with embarrassment and whispered:

"A daughter only obeys her mother's orders."

With Yuwen Eying's words, Yang Lihua had confidence in her heart.

After all, if she doesn't want to get married, she will naturally say that her daughter wants to stay at home and serve her parents.

Cui Che and Li Min drove their horses to the outside of the city. They shot rabbits for a while, and then Cui Che said seriously:

"Although Eying is a descendant of the previous dynasty, Cui regards her as his own. Since the princess intends to recruit you as her son-in-law, Cui will naturally not stop her.

"You should treat her with care from now on. If she is arrogant and unreasonable, it will be Cui's failure as a father. You can tell me frankly and I will definitely reprimand her."

Hearing this, Li Min knew that there was no obstacle to her marriage to Yuwen Eying, and said excitedly:

"What Mr. Wu Cheng said, my nephew will definitely remember it in his heart and dare not forget it."

In order to select a good man for Yu Wen Eying, Yang Lihua specially asked Yang Jian to issue an edict and ordered the princes' children to gather at Hongsheng Palace for interviews every day. There were hundreds of people who showed off their talents. The competition was far better than that of the Dou family's daughter Que Ping.

husband.

Now that I have got what I wanted, how can I remain indifferent?

Cui Che smiled and said:

"You still call me Lord Wucheng?"

"My son-in-law pays homage to my father-in-law!"

Li Min quickly knelt down and worshiped.

In the afternoon of that day, Cui Che and his wife took Li Min to Miyagi City to meet the saint. In the moving carriage, Cui Che closed his eyes and rested, while Yang Lihua carefully warned Li Min:

"If the sage asks you what your official position is, if you answer truthfully, I will be white for the time being, and His Majesty will reward you with an official position. But don't be in a hurry to accept it. I will ask you to come to Zhuguo for you."

Cui Che, who was sleeping on the side, thought to himself: I worked hard, but now I am just a pillar of the country. This Li Min has not made any achievements, but he is in a high position with the help of a good marriage.

But then I thought about it, when I married Yang Lihua, the ministers in the DPRK probably viewed me in the same way.

Moreover, the Zhuguo of the Great Sui Dynasty was indeed worthless, and he only declined the position of Shangzhuguo before settling into the position of Zhuguo.

To Cui Che's surprise, Li Min politely declined Yang Lihua's kindness:

"How can my son-in-law be the same as my father-in-law?"

I forgot that I have to go to the grave early tomorrow. There should only be two chapters today. I will write an extra chapter later, so I have to go to bed early. I won't ask for leave tomorrow, so there should be three chapters guaranteed.
