As soon as Cui Yourong said this, the whole audience was stunned.

Especially Li Chan, who was as shocked as a fool.

She thought to herself, I have worked hard to help your Cui family resist the pressure of Eunuch Qiu, so that Qiuzao can continue to maintain his innocence. All he wants is to marry out of the palace and commit himself to your adopted son who has nothing but good looks.

You still want to rob me for this?

Aren't you an elder?

Staring at Mrs. Cui's enviable face and plump bosom, I couldn't help but feel angry.

Poor work... so bad work!

Everyone in the Zhang family also looked shocked, but when they thought about it carefully, this matter made sense.

With Cui Yourong's good looks and wealth, it's only human nature to have a handsome pretty boy.

It is strange that she has been a widow for so many years, which makes people wonder if she is ill.

Cui Yourong's decision can be described as daring to love or hate, but it also made the current situation take a turn for the worse.

Mother Zhang doesn't know how to say goodbye, and she is very capable of criticizing others.

I saw her fat face jumping excitedly.

"Cui Yourong, you are worthy of being the one who always likes the weak scholar who is more beautiful than the beautiful one. The beauty is hidden in the golden house."

"Not only that, you also asked Cui Jianzheng to place a loser into the Imperial College. Do you know that a poor student who studies hard may lose the election and commit suicide by throwing himself into the Wei River just because a quota is taken!"

"The Boling Cui family is worthy of being the leader of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes. A branch of the family can actually control the wind and rain in Chang'an City!"

Li Chan was ashamed.

This mother-in-law can elevate a small matter to the level of the country and society...

You are so powerful, why don't you become the mother of the country?

The Boling Cui family has taken refuge in Anlu Mountain. Zhang's mother obviously wanted to discredit the Cui family by saying this.

In the Imperial College, 90% of the students are from the nobility of Chang'an City. Anyone who is not a particularly good-for-nothing will go there to be gilded.

Fortunately, many official Confucian schools, sects and Taoist temples, Zen monasteries, Buddhist temples, or other single-science museums have been established in the outer city.

Some of them even have hidden powerful men who are very powerful.

There were even some princes and nobles with extraordinary talents and learning who did not want to associate with the mediocre people in the Imperial Academy, so they went to the outer city to practice.

Cui Yourong stood with her hands behind her back, her appearance dignified. Faced with Zhang's mother deliberately bringing the topic to the Cui family branch, she calmly said:

"Although Mr. Chen has an extraordinary appearance, he is not just a man of gold and jade. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to marry me within this year."

Li Chan was dumbfounded, even the wedding date was set.

But Qiu Zhuo actually kept silent about her, pretending that she was a kind-hearted princess waiting to be married, woo woo woo...

Do you want her to marry Du Qingchuan? Impossible, absolutely impossible!

"It will be released within this year... Do you want to use the method of dual cultivation to take risks and help mortals?"

Mother Zhang's expression was exaggerated and her words hit the mark.

"Speaking of which, even though Mrs. Cui has a son and a daughter, she is still very beautiful and talented, and her talents are well hidden. Why is she so strict about choosing a husband for her daughter, but when it comes to herself, she relaxes the requirements?"

Cui Yourong put his hands behind his hands and said calmly:

"There is no need for double cultivation. Chen Gongzi has his own way to become a master of literature, Taoism and martial arts."

The elder's wife narrowed her eyes slightly and nodded silently.

In fact, when the Zhang family comes to propose marriage this time, whether they can marry Qiu Zhuo or not is secondary. The key point is to use Cui Yourong's family as an entry point to try to seize the Cui family's leverage and then offer it to Eunuch Qiu to help him win the weapons prison as soon as possible.

However, the Cui family is like a seamless egg. They are extremely obedient and obedient, making it difficult to find an excuse. Even Eunuch Qiu's rash men are already planning to frame the Cui family...

But once this kind of thing is exposed, it will easily bring trouble to Eunuch Qiu. It is not a good idea. It is better to try to get closer to the Cui family or provoke harmless conflicts to find excuses.

Right now, the biggest problem in the Cui family is Du Qiuzhuo, who doesn't want to marry anyone.

However, Tang law did not clearly stipulate that women must marry and have children.

Now, she seemed to have found an entry point, which was Mr. Chen who Cui Yourong was deliberately protecting in the name of love.

The Zhang family secretly investigated Chen Yanjun. He was a mere mortal with mediocre poetry and medical skills. He was only slightly talented at Cuju.

Thinking like this, Mrs. Zhang took it into consideration.

Since you said Mr. Chen is a master of literary, Taoist and military tactics, and Qiu Zhuo values ​​literary, Taoist and military tactics the most, why not let Mr. Chen compete with his grandson twice?

So if Zhang Wei Wen Tao's martial arts defeat Mr. Chen, your Cui family will have nothing to say, right? Zhang Wei married Qiu Zhuo, which will naturally be conducive to collecting evidence.

If Mr. Chen cheated in the competition, or if the princess interfered and ruined the marriage, that would be even better. Seizing the evidence would be a stain on the Cui family or the royal family!

No matter whether the palace loses its reputation or the Cui family loses its credibility in the end, it will be beneficial for Eunuch Qiu to overthrow Cui Wanjun and take down the weapons supervisor.

What's more, there is a mysterious friend who spends a lot of money to ask the Zhang family to help publicly humiliate Mr. Chen, exposing his corrupt nature and making Qiu Zhuo completely give up on him and no longer have any expectations.

Compared with these things, not being able to marry Du Qiuzhuo is no big deal.

"In that case, why not let Quan-sun compete with your Mr. Chen? If Quan-sun is more talented than his future father-in-law, will the Cui family have anything to say?"

Mrs. Zhang thought deeply.

But the princess only saw the excitement.

Sure enough, it was time for the classic competition... Li Chan immediately said excitedly:

"Okay, it's settled!"

"Today, I will be the judge. I guarantee with my father's reputation that I will be impartial."

"If Mr. Chen wins, the Zhang family can pack up and go home, and pretend that what happened today never happened."

"If Mr. Zhang wins, Mrs. Cui will immediately make Mr. Chen her adopted son... As for the marriage between Mr. Zhang and Qiu Zhuo, as long as Mr. Zhang's literary, Taoist and military strategies are recognized by Dr. Cheng and Huo Longwei, I believe Qiu Zhuo will also fall in love with him.

of."

Madam Zhang frowned slightly and her eyes were gloomy.

The princess's words are full of loopholes... I believe Qiu Zhuo will fall in love with her, but she didn't say anything; the princess's judgment is also unfair.

But she agreed immediately:

"Just do as the princess says."

Cui Yourong, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke:

"If Mr. Zhang can surpass Mr. Chen in both civil and military skills, I will agree to this marriage."

Yanbi changed the subject and said:

"But the Zhang family must establish a written agreement. This matter is only the Du family's decision and has nothing to do with the Cui family or the princess..."

The Zhang family members were stunned and looked at each other for a moment.

I'm sorry, do you really want to get into my Zhang family?

The Zhang family is now popular in front of Eunuch Qiu!

Li Chan also panicked.

"Mrs. Cui is stupid. How can she sell her daughter for the sake of her family's reputation? I have even ruined the reputation of the royal family... No, no, I am opposed to this marriage!"

Cui Yourong did not listen to the princess's opinion this time.

"I have made up my mind."

Even Du Qiuzhuo was a little surprised.

In her impression, her mother was by no means an impulsive person.

It seemed that Chen Yanjun was impulsively saved, but in the end he also sacrificed his life to save himself. Now that he has successfully undergone marrow cleansing and is reborn, he might really be able to enter the top class years ago.

Seeing Cui Yourong's determination, Mrs. Zhang was reluctant, but now she could only follow her words and establish a written evidence.

Letting Zhang Wei marry Du Qiuzao was a second plan, but it would be of great benefit to his future practice.

At the same time, as the great-grandson-in-law, infiltrating the Cui family will make it easier to find dirt on Cui Wanjun. Sooner or later, he will help Eunuch Qiu completely master the weapons supervision!

"Let's compete as Yourong said."

…

Xiao Yue happily ran to the backyard and woke up Chen Yanjun who was sleeping...

"Master, you can really fall asleep!"

Chen Yanjun slept soundly and dreamed that he climbed to the top of the mountain on a moonlit night and reached out to touch...

Double months.

After waking up, all my injuries were healed!

"What's wrong?"

Xiaoyue explained everything clearly.
To be continued...
