Chapter 176 Set a wedding date
Cui Anqian has been waiting for Liu Yunzhang at home.
This waiting process is tormenting. Cui Anqian is very clear about the struggle in the capital. His current status is very detached and he has no actual power. He was originally planning to go to Luoyang, the eastern capital, to retire. However, the court may have considered his influence and ability, so he did not allow him to go to Luoyang. It would be very meaningless to stay in the capital. Just say that his ability, if he really controls power, and does something, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among some people.
The marriage between Li Rupei and Cui Hanlei did not have much impact on the surface, but Li Rupei's identities were different. However, whether it was the emperor or ordinary people, they were going to marry. It should be said that this is not a big deal in the capital. However, because of the bravery of the Iron Blood Army and the extraordinary nature of Li Rupei, everything is full of uncertain factors.
The most likely person to object is Tian Lingzi, and the reason here is self-evident.
Liu Yunzhang had just arrived in Chang'an and was recruited by the emperor into the Daming Palace before he even had time to drink a sip of hot tea. This must be for Li Rupei's marriage. If the emperor did not agree, the subsequent matter would be difficult to handle.
The housekeeper reported that when Liu Yunzhang came to the mansion, Cui Anqian was a little anxious and had no time to tidy up his clothes. He hurried out. As long as he saw Liu Yunzhang's face, he knew whether the matter was done.
The results he saw were relieved.
Liu Yunzhang also brought a matchmaker, who stayed in the mansion. This is the time for the matchmaker to play its role.
Cui Anqian and his wife sat in the main hall and accepted the betrothal gift from Liu Yunzhang, with smiles on their faces.
After discussion and considering the actual situation of the prince, Cui Anqian and Liu Yunzhang both agreed to set the wedding date on the first day of the June 1st, which means that there are still five months left, Cui Hanlei will get married. It was from this time that Cui Hanlei has become Li Rupei's wife and princess.
As for the many procedures and procedures for passing the ceremony, the matchmaker has completed it.
After all the procedures were over, Cui Anqian took Liu Yunzhang into the study. The two must have a lot to say. This marriage is not as simple as it seems.
After entering the study, the housekeeper brought the wine and food to the study. This time Cui Anqian still spent a lot of money. At least he needed to be responsible for the living expenses of the Iron Blood Army soldiers who stayed in the mansion. Although Liu Yunzhang brought a lot of silver, life was enough, but the visitors were all guests, so he could not be too stingy.
After picking up the wine glass, Liu Yunzhang was straight to the point. He followed Li Rupei and learned the fastest thing. He just said something directly, don’t beat around the bush and don’t let others guess, as it is easy to mislead things.
"Mr. Cui, even if the marriage between Ling Nu and the Prince is officially confirmed today, there are many things to do. I will leave the capital and return to Liangzhou tomorrow. When I wrote a letter to Cui, I took into account Ling Nu's gentleness, virtuousness, and purity, and worthy of the Prince. On the other hand, I took into account Cui's integrity and courage."
"Mr. Cui has never contacted the prince, so it is hard to say anything. He has not been around the prince for a long time, but he has a lot of feelings. He thinks that the prince is definitely not an ordinary person. It should be said that when Mr. Cui was in Xichuan, he managed Xichuan in an orderly manner. If you say a word that offended Mr. Cui, Shannan West Road may be far more than Xichuan."
"It's easy to say, Mr. Cui asked these young people to prepare and follow someone to Liangzhou tomorrow."
"By the way, the little girl's maid, I followed Liu Gong to Liangzhou this time. This little girl and her girl are like sisters..."
Before Cui Anqian finished speaking, Liu Yunzhang laughed.
"Mr. Cui didn't know that this little girl was really powerful. She was in Liangzhou that day, facing the prince, and she was full of fear when she was watching from the side. She followed her to Liangzhou this time and should not be so arrogant in front of the prince."
Cui Onqian also laughed.
"The little girl is ignorant, and she is too spoiled. But when she arrives in Liangzhou, she knows what to do."
"Okay, everything is covered by someone, Mr. Cui should not worry."
...
The next words were obviously lowered. Cui Anqian was a smart person, so of course he knew what to do. Liu Yunzhang was also an old fox and knew everything in the court. The two of them discussed in a low voice, which was to make it clear. In fact, Cui Anqian had known for a long time that Liu Yunzhang wrote a letter that was not just a proposal.
It was a while after dark, and Zheng Ting came to visit.
Cui Anqian invited Zheng Qi into the study and talked to Liu Yunzhang. The three of them talked about it for half an hour in the study. As for what they were talking about in detail, outsiders could not know.
After dawn, Liu Yunzhang made all preparations.
Before leaving, Huang Biao found Liu Yunzhang and said that he was an officer temporarily stationed in the Shence Army camp. At night, he met Tian Lingzi. The meaning of Tian Lingzi's words was that he asked these nine hundred soldiers to stay in the capital and ensure that they were best treated, etc. The officers of course would not agree.
Hearing Huang Biao say this, Liu Yunzhang's face showed a sneer. Tian Lingzi took him too seriously and thought that a high-ranking official could win over anyone with a generous salary. This move would have no effect on the Iron Blood Army.
Fifty Iron Blood Army soldiers stayed in Cui Mansion, and the remaining 950 people followed Liu Yunzhang and Huang Biao back to Liangzhou. Of course, more than ten people appeared in the team. Except for the maid Cui Qiuyue, the rest were young people of the Cui family, and even Cui Anqian's eldest grandson. These people were all going to Liangzhou and Li Rupei to do things.
Such a situation is inevitable. It should be said that these people can be used with confidence by Li Rupei. After all, Cui Hanlei will go to Liangzhou in a short time, and the influence of the Cui family in Liangzhou will be extraordinary.
When Liu Yunzhang left the capital, he did not say goodbye to the emperor. He came to the capital not for business. He also felt that the prince could make his own decision on his marriage and did not need to consider the opinions in the palace. Perhaps the emperor understood this meaning, so he did not speak much.
