Chapter 718

Cui family.

Cui Xinghe sat in the courtyard, looking up at the blue sky in a daze.

During this time, whenever he had time, he couldn't help but think of the shock Gao Yang brought him.

Planning strategies, calculating everything.

Under one scheme, from the court to the common people, it was all a big pit, everything was in his calculations.

Even the subtle changes were all in his chest, as if he had witnessed these consequences with his own eyes!

What kind of terrifying skill is this?

The always proud Cui Xinghe, after experiencing Gao Yang's successive blows, doubted life a bit.

"Xinghe, I heard that the Minister of the Supreme Court, Lu Wen, proposed a method to curb corruption. Is this Lu Wen crazy?"

At this time, Cui Jian stepped forward and said with shock.

Cui Xinghe first stood up and bowed to Cui Jian, then said, "Child feels that it is just another scapegoat."

"Scapegoat?"

Cui Jian frowned.

"These poisonous schemes, it's not that I look down on Minister Lu, but whether it is the method of severe punishment, the method of implicating future generations, or the method of assessment by the Ministry of Personnel, they don't look like his methods!"

"Especially taking my Cui family as an example, I am too familiar with it; this is Gao Yang's method. Furthermore, regarding the Lin family carrying a coffin into the hall, His Majesty hasn't punished Lu Wen yet. Thinking about it this way, everything matches up."

Cui Jian, upon hearing this, fell into silence.

"I heard that the Living Yama is going to hold a capping ceremony in the next two days. It's hard to imagine that such a ruthless person is still just a youth."

Cui Jian's expression was complex, but then he smiled and said, "But my Cui family and the Living Yama have always been enemies, this matter should have nothing to do with us."

Cui Xinghe, upon hearing this, shook his head and said, "Father, this matter might not be so."

"I know the Living Yama too well."

"Hmm?"

Cui Jian was confused.

Just then, the servant's voice suddenly rang out.

"Master, the Ding Duke Prefecture just sent someone to deliver an invitation, inviting the Master and the Young Master to attend Lord Gao's capping ceremony the day after tomorrow."

Cui Jian was stunned, his eyes widening.

It really came?

His eyes suddenly looked at Cui Xinghe, full of shock.

Cui Xinghe was expressionless, slowly took the invitation from the servant's hand, and after confirming its authenticity, he looked at Cui Jian and said.

"Coming to collect gifts."

"Father, prepare a heavy gift."

Cui Xinghe sighed quietly, his eyes as if piercing through everything.

"Why?"

"Isn't your brilliant plan pointing directly at the malpractice of Da Qian, His Majesty is very happy, even surpassing that Living Yama, why should we still send a heavy gift?"

Cui Jian said, somewhat unwilling.

Cui Xinghe, upon hearing this, especially looking at Cui Jian's questioning eyes, immediately thought of the charm of the concubine.

He said guiltily, "The Living Yama's talent is not inferior to mine. With His Majesty's intervention, we should give some face, this shows my Cui family's pattern."

"Father, the pattern must be big!"

Cui Jian, seeing this, also nodded.

"Fine, then my Cui family will prepare a heavy gift."

"But this Living Yama is really not afraid at all. I fear that everyone with a face in Changancheng has been sent an invitation, right? Being so unscrupulous, where does his confidence come from?"

Cui Xinghe, at the end, had some curiosity in his eyes.

"..."

General's mansion.

"Mr. Chen, what about the brilliant plan you mentioned? The many brilliant plans to deal with the Living Yama?"

"Why haven't I seen a single one?"

Wang Zhong sat in the small courtyard, his eyes staring at Mr. Chen in front of him, and couldn't help but speak.

Mr. Chen was in a blue robe, his face embarrassed.

"Old General Wang, don't be impatient. Is the Living Yama an ordinary person? I am pondering a world-shaking poisonous scheme. If it doesn't come out, it's fine, but once it comes out, it will be fatal!"

"This world-shaking poisonous scheme always needs some time."

Wang Zhong, listening to this, moved his gaze away, secretly regretting in his heart.

Since Mr. Chen entered the mansion, the main theme was sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight. He hadn't seen a single brilliant plan to deal with Gao Yang, but he ate more than him.

Every meal, a catty of pig head meat, two taels of small wine, plus a plate of peanuts, occasionally going to the Rouge Pavilion at night.

This small life, he was envious.

"Report!"

"Old General Wang, the Ding Duke Prefecture sent an invitation, inviting you to attend Lord Gao's capping ceremony."

The servant's voice rang out, holding the invitation in his hand.

Wang Zhong, upon hearing this, was shocked.

"What?"

"Gao Yang's capping ceremony, inviting me?"

Wang Zhong looked strange. In the entire court, besides the Rong Prince whose grave grass was already a foot tall, who didn't know that he, Wang Zhong, and Gao Yang were mortal enemies?

He went to Guanzhong to provide disaster relief and was known as the General of Prostitution, drinking with a catty of locusts every day. This was Gao Yang's pit!

But now, Gao Yang actually took the initiative to send him an invitation.

"It's really a long time to see, can I go to his capping ceremony?"

Wang Zhong looked surprised, and then said heavily, flicking his sleeves.
