The Cui Family was a big family that had existed for hundreds of years, with numerous branches and numerous clansmen.
Cui Xixin was a direct descendant of the Cui Family. Although his status in the Cui Family couldn't be compared with that of Cui Chengyu, he was also an outstanding disciple of the younger generation of the Cui Family. In today's banquet, he could be regarded as half a host.
Cui Xixin had no official position. Outside of the Cui Family, others would give him a little face out of respect for the Cui Family, but they might not regard him as a person of importance. However, within the Cui Family, as the master, Cui Xixin's status and identity would increase imperceptibly in everyone's hearts.
At this moment, he held a glass of wine and walked towards the direction of the Magistrate of the Capital City.
Although he had suffered a loss in the hands of this person, he naturally dared not to make things difficult for him without the permission of the elders if he really abandoned the darkness for the light and came to the Cui Family to express his goodwill.
Walking behind him, Cui Xixin heard that the Magistrate seemed to be whispering something. He smiled and said, "Magistrate Liu …"
"You motherf * cker!"
At this moment, County Magistrate Liu was full of contradiction and annoyance. When he was cursing in a low voice to relieve the depression in his heart, he heard a voice behind him. Therefore, he turned around subconsciously and uttered the following words naturally.
Cui Xixin held a glass of wine and the smile on his face froze. After hearing what he just said, his eyes gradually became cold.
"What did you just … say?"
County Magistrate Liu was stunned, then he reached out and patted his shoulder, saying, "You motherf * cker — the weather is so cold, don't you know to wear more clothes? If you catch a cold, you will suffer. You young people don't know how to take care of your body at all. "
He held up the glass of wine and gently touched the glass in Cui Xixin's hand. After drinking up the wine in the glass, he waved his hand, "Childe Cui, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
After saying that, he stood up and strode towards the direction of the Cui Mansion.
"Stop!"
Cui Xixin suddenly smashed the wine glass in his hand, turned around and pointed at the leaving figure of County Magistrate Liu.
When he walked over just now, not many people paid attention to him except those young figures. At this moment, he smashed the glass angrily in front of so many people, which made many people stunned on the spot.
"Today is the birthday of Imperial Concubine Cui. What's wrong with the third childe of the Cui Family?"
"That person … isn't that person the magistrate of the Capital City? How did he provoke the third childe of the Cui Family? How did he offend the third childe of the Cui Family come to the banquet today?"
"Smashing the cup … Could it be that smashing the cup is the signal? Could it be that the Cui family wants to take advantage of Noble Consort Cui's birthday banquet to catch all those who don't listen to their orders?"
…
County Magistrate Liu stopped and turned his head and turned, asking, "Childe Cui Childe of Cui Cui".
Cui Xixin glared at him. "How dare you insult my mother!"
"Nonsense, Cui Liu of of Cui Cun …" Cui Xixin of Liu of Cuof Cui Cui "Cui"
County of Liu of of of Cuof Cuof County of. Cui Xixin of County of Xin of of Cui …
County Magistrate Liu smiled and said, "Two days ago, the weather suddenly became cold. My son didn't put on clothes and caught a cold. He hasn't recovered yet and is recuperating at home. When I saw Childe Cui Xiao of Cui Xiao of County, I thought of my son and couldn't help being a little anxious …"
Cui Xixin was a little embarrassed by his words and said angrily, "Your son is your son, I am me …"
County Magistrate Liu hurriedly waved his hand and explained, "Childe Cui, you are right. I don't have a son like you!"
"You!" Cui Xixin's face was full of anger again. At this time, a figure came hurriedly behind him.
"What's wrong? What happened?" A middle-aged man walked out of the hall and looked at Cui Xixin.
"He, I …" Cui Xixin pointed at County Magistrate Liu. After moving his lips, he lowered his head and said, "Fourth Uncle, it's nothing. Lord Liu wants to leave and I will see him off."
He was very clear that the most important thing today was the birthday banquet of the Imperial Concubine. Not to mention him, even his father would not be able to get away if something happened at the birthday banquet.
He was irritated by the rude words of Liu just now. Now that he calmed down, he immediately broke into a cold sweat.
"Childe Cui, don't be so polite. I know the way."
County Magistrate Liu looked at him with a smile and turned away decisively.
The servants of the Cui Family cleaned up the broken pieces. When Cui Xixin walked back to the table, several people immediately surrounded him.
"What happened there just now?"
"What does that Liu want to do?"
Cui Xixin's face was extremely gloomy. He told them what happened just now in detail.
One of them was shocked and said, "In the Cui Family, Liu Dayou dared not to give you face. Why did he come here today?"
Ceng Zijian was astonished. "What's going on? Could it be that Liu Dayou came here today just to cause trouble? Who gave him the guts to do so?"
"Li Yi, it must be Marquis Li Yi of Chang 'an County!"
In another place, an official lowered his voice and said, "Everyone in the capital city knows that the capital magistrate Liu Dayou works for Marquis Li Yi of Chang 'an County. Marquis Li Yi is not on good terms with the Cui Family. There is no reason for him to come here today. It turns out that he just came for …"
"Yes, when the Imperial Concubine came here, it seemed that he directly rushed out to block the way. The conversation between him and the third young master of the Cui Family was obviously a public joke …"
"The third young master of the Cui Family is still too young to take advantage of this old fox verbally. However, this Liu Dayou is really bold. He even dared to make trouble at the birthday banquet of the Imperial Concubine. Marquis Li Yi is too strong. The Cui Family can't do anything to him, but he is just a small capital magistrate."
…
"He's going too far! He's going too far! " A man of the Cui Family slapped the table and said angrily, "He really thinks that the Cui Family can come and go as he pleases. Why didn't we stop him just now!"
The fourth uncle of the Cui Family glanced at him and said, "He is after all a fifth-grade capital magistrate and works for the Princess. You know who is in charge in the court now. Besides, what reason can he use to detain an official of the court? Do you think the Cui Family is still the same Cui Family as before?"
The man said with a sullen face, "Are we going to let so many people see our Cui Family as a joke?"
"Fortunately, it's just a small conflict between Xi Xin and him. The impact hasn't spread." The fourth uncle of the Cui Family knocked on the table with his index finger and said, "The matter of the Academy has come to an end. If there is no accident, it won't be long before the Eldest Princess's Academy can't be run anymore. With such a big oversight, we don't need to do anything. At that time, the officials won't allow her to continue to manage the government. At that time, we can slowly deal with the capital magistrate …"
"However, County Marquis Li and Doctor Li have really gone too far by making trouble in our Cui Mansion during the Concubine's birthday!"
Outside the Cui Mansion, Detective Zhao saw his master coming out from inside and said in surprise, "Master, is it over? Why are you back so soon? Have you eaten your capital back?"
He was extremely curious at the moment. What did his master eat inside? How could he eat such a generous gift in such a short time …
County Magistrate Liu shook his head and said, "Not much. I came back after drinking a few cups of wine."
Detective Zhao thought for a while and asked, "Then … Did you see the Imperial Concubine?"
"Yes." County Magistrate Liu nodded.
Detective Zhao looked curious and asked, "What does the Imperial Concubine look like? How is she different from ordinary women?"
"Shut up!"
County Magistrate Liu glanced at him and said lightly, "A loose tongue can cause trouble. You can't talk about the affairs of the royal family at will. Do you want your head or not?"
Detective Zhao was stunned for a moment and then came to his senses. He slapped himself and said repeatedly, "Master, please forgive me. I deserve to be slapped for my foul mouth, I deserve to be slapped …"
"You'd better remember this." County Magistrate Liu looked at him and said in a low voice, "In the future, don't ask what you shouldn't ask and don't say what you shouldn't say …"
