The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 388 Keeping the Promise
After the case was closed, the emperor announced a new appointment. The vacant minister of the Ministry of Industry was promoted by Lang Zhong of the Ministry of Industry, and the minister of the Ministry of Punishment was promoted by Guo Yihui.

After returning home in a carriage, Cui Quan couldn't help scolding: "Wang Wengan, that arrogant boy, dare to threaten me? I will definitely make him look good in the future."

After cursing furiously, Cui Yongzong didn't speak until Cui Quan was tired of cursing, "Father calm down, winning or losing for a while doesn't matter. Fortunately, the newly appointed Minister of Punishment and Minister of Industry are not members of the Wang family."

Mentioning this matter, Cui Quan felt a little comforted in his heart, but he was still unhappy.

"The newly appointed servant of the Ministry of Punishment, Guo Yihui, was born in a poor family and is currently neutral. We can still find ways to win him over.

"But the newly appointed minister of the Ministry of Industry is a member of the regent. In this round, both Cui and Wang lost."

Cui Yongzong was silent.

Although this game benefited the regent Wang Yuweng, it was better than the official position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry falling into Wang's hands.

Cui Quan said again: "Send more people to the palace, and bring Liu Yang back as soon as possible."

"Yes."

Cui Yongzong immediately left his father's carriage and ordered Zhu Lin to take more people to the palace.

So, as soon as Wang Wenqian returned to the mansion, the guard came to report: "Ah Lang, the servant Cui is asking to see you."

Wang Wenqian knew it well, and said to the guards: "You tell them to tell Cui Shizhong that what I promised will definitely be done. Please also ask Duke Jingguo and Cui Shizhong to wait at ease in the mansion."

Zhu Lin was furious when he heard what the guard told him, but because Liu Yang was in the opponent's hands, he had to endure it: "I hope Wang Shangshu will keep his promise."

"Let's go." Zhu Lin angrily left with a group of guards.

Back at the Yasukuni Mansion, Zhu Lin repeated Wang Wengan's words in front of Cui Quan and Cui Yongzong, and Cui Quan was so angry that he slapped the table.

"This arrogant kid, I knew he wouldn't let him go so easily, it's really hateful"

Cui Quan stood up awkwardly: "No, we can't let Liu Yang stay with them anymore."

Staying for one more day, Liu Yang might spit out all the secrets of the Cui Mansion.

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, Cui Quan told his eldest son: "A Zong, you go to the palace now and bring Liu Yang back by yourself."

People tend to make mistakes when they are in a hurry, Cui Yongzong persuaded: "Father, please be calm and don't be impatient. If Liu Yang really betrayed you, Wang Wengan, who should know what he should know and shouldn't, will probably know it all.

"If Liu Yang didn't betray you, we don't need to rush at this moment.

"Your Majesty has just settled the case, so it is not appropriate to cause trouble at this time, let's wait.

"If Wang Wenqian doesn't send people over before the door closes tonight, I'll go and settle the score with him myself."

After hearing these words, Cui Quan's restless heart gradually calmed down.

In a teahouse in Nanshi, Cui Hengyue sat by the window of the private room, watching Wang Wengan stride into the teahouse.

She withdrew her gaze and landed on the teacup in her hand.

Su Biwen knew that she was coming to see Wang Wenqian and clamored to come together, but she refused Su Biwen's request and arranged for Yao Shisan to be the driver.

After Mrs. Wen's reaction last night, Cui Hengyue felt that they couldn't let them meet their enemies, otherwise they couldn't help but want revenge, which would ruin her plan.
"Boom boom boom——"

The knock on the door interrupted Cui Hengyue's thinking, she looked at the door: "Come in."

The door opened, Wang Wenqian stepped in and quickly closed the door.

He went straight to Cui Hengyue, looked down at her, and didn't speak.

Cui Hengyue looked up at him, and seeing him clenched his fists to his lips and coughed twice, with a majestic look, she couldn't help but think to herself: Could he be waiting for her to call him uncle?
Then he would think too much, she wouldn't call him "uncle".

"Wang Shangshu, please sit down." Cui Hengyue stretched out his hand, beckoning Wang Wengan to sit down and drink tea.

Wang Wengan's expression froze, he turned away unnaturally, and sat down opposite Cui Hengyue.

This stinky girl is really rude.

"Looking at Wang Shangshu's happy face, Wang Dalang should go home."

Cui Hengyue put a cup of hot tea on the table in front of Wang Wengan, and continued: "Since Wang Dalang has returned to the mansion, it is time for Wang Shangshu to fulfill his promise."

When mentioning the promise, Wang Wenqian's expression turned cold: "If you want to know anything, just ask."

"Okay, then I'll start."

Cui Hengyue took a sip of tea and sat upright: "I heard that the governor of Yunzhou, the governor, once sent Su Qiyuan's grandson to the south hall of Yunxuan Temple, and then went to meet the king of Chu."

Having said that, she stopped and stared at Wang Wengan for a while.

Just when Wang Wenqian was puzzled by her and wanted to ask a question, she continued: "I have lived in Yunxuan Temple since I was a child, and the Wang family knows this very well, so I won't say more.

"What I want to say is that later on when I met Su Qiyuan's grandson, Su Xiaolang, he told me that his grandfather was framed by someone, wrongly accused of collaborating with the enemy and traitorous to the country, and that his whole family was executed.

"Is what he said true?"

Wang Wengan hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "That's right, General Su Qiyuan was indeed framed by someone, he did not collude with the enemy and betray the country."

it is as expected.

Cui Hengyue was a little excited, and continued to ask: "Who is the person who framed General Su Qiyuan? Is he the current governor of Yunzhou?"

"of course not."

Hearing that his father had been wronged, Wang Wenqian was very indignant: "General Su and my father are siblings, how could my father frame him?
"That brat Su Biwen must have told you so?"

The more he talked, the more angry he became, Wang Wenqian couldn't help but took a picture of the case: "That brat really doesn't know what's good and what's wrong. If it weren't for my father, he would have died a long time ago. How dare he spread rumors outside and wrong my father? It's really unreasonable!"

Said, took another shot.

Cui Hengyue looked at him quietly.

Wang Wenqian looked over suddenly: "You don't believe me?"

Cui Hengyue's tone was light: "You and Su Biwen have different opinions, and I don't know who I should trust. Why don't you tell me everything about that year, and I'll think about it again, who should I trust."

This was his promise.

Wang Wenqian collected his emotions, calmed down, and said slowly: "When my father went out with General Su, my mother took a few of our brothers to stay in the capital.

"We didn't believe the news when it came back to the capital, because General Su has always been a loyal and upright person, and he would never betray the imperial court and do things like collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.

"But at that time, the evidence was solid, and Emperor Taizu personally decided the case, so everyone believed it.

"Although my father had doubts, he was powerless. He heard that there was a servant girl in the Su residence who was of the blood of the Su family, so he used the power of the Wang family to secretly escort this servant girl out of Beijing.

"However, something happened later, and my father lost their whereabouts.

"When we met again, it was Su Biwen who came to assassinate him. You should know what happened afterwards. Father caught Su Biwen and sent him to Yunxuan Temple himself."

Speaking of this, Wang Wenqian stopped suddenly. As far as he knew, when Cui Hengyue was in Yunxuan Temple, his father only visited the South Temple once, and that was the time to send Su Biwen off.

His eyes suddenly became very complicated, like apprehension, nervousness, and anticipation: "Did you see Father when he went to the South Palace?"

A sneer crossed Cui Hengyue's lips: "What do you think?"

Judging by her appearance, she must have never seen her before.

The father is also true, at least it is his granddaughter, since he went to the South Palace, why can't he take a look?

At this moment, Wang Wenqian finally understood why Cui Hengyue had that expression on his face when he mentioned this matter just now.
