Chapter 586 Reunion (first update)
When Li Zhiwan was fascinated by the sentence of "thin and young as flying catkins", she said that Zhang Wenguan was overjoyed from the bottom of her heart. Hearing this sentence, Miss Cui really had a lot of affection for him.

Although Zhang Wenguan didn't see Concubine Cui Chu in person, it didn't prevent him from fantasizing about Concubine Cui Chu's appearance.

At that moment, Zhang Wenguan said very sincerely outside the wall: "Miss Cui, the descendants of the Liang family will never do things that start in chaos and end in abandonment. My surname is Zhang, my first name is Wenguan, and my style name is Zhigui. After Liuhou, my brother Wen Cong is a householder in this county, Cao, and he is studying at home. He is waiting for the test in the autumn and autumn. He has not yet had an official status, so he has not yet married a wife. Dare I ask..."

Concubine Cui Chu was secretly amused when she heard this, and said to Li Zhiwan: "Sister, look at whether this scholar is dumb, who cares that he told me his history in detail."

Li Zhiwan shook her head after hearing this and said: "After Liuhou Zhang Liang, the Zhang family of Qinghe can be regarded as a famous family. This man speaks the truth, he is a man of sincerity. If you don't like him, don't tease him, lest you cause lovesickness in vain."

Concubine Cui Chu snorted and said: "I just like that he misses me from the bottom of his heart. Is the Qinghe Zhang family so rare? If you like it, sister, I will just let him go to you."

Li Zhiwan smiled and shook her head.

Concubine Cui Chu said in a low voice: "My sister must have a sweetheart, or a marriage already."

Li Zhiwan neither admitted nor denied it.

But he heard another voice outside the wall: "Do you dare to ask the girl's name?"

Concubine Cui Chu smiled softly, but she said bitterly in her words: "Hey, Fanggui is lonely, and it is fate to meet you today. Listen carefully, my lord, this servant is..."

At this time, Concubine Cui Chu heard a cough behind her, and this cough immediately made Concubine Cui Chu's soul fly for nine days.It turned out that when he looked back, it was his mother Cui Zhengshi standing behind him.

I saw Mrs. Cui leaning on a cane, staring at her daughter with serious eyes and a pale face.Concubine Cui Chu saw her mother was like a mouse seeing a cat, she was too scared to move.

But the other side outside the wall continued: "Why did Miss Cui say halfway and didn't continue, but what happened, I am really sincere, I want to know Miss's name."
Zhang Wenguan could be heard anxious in his words.

At this time, Mrs. Cui slammed her crutches on the ground heavily, and shouted angrily at the left and right servants: "Catch that prostitute outside to the lobby!"

Hearing what Mrs. Cui said, Concubine Cui Chu's body softened, and she immediately leaned against Li Zhiwan.Li Zhiwan was amused from the bottom of her heart, you asked for this purely on your own.

At that moment, the servants of the Cui family went out to fetch people, and Zhang Wenguan outside the wall was waiting for Miss Cui's answer. Unexpectedly, Miss Cui's answer did not come back, but a group of Cui family slaves with sticks came.

However, these three people were not soft persimmons. Zhang Wenguan's good friend Lai Jinai was a master of martial arts, and knocked down five or six Cui family slaves at once.Zhang Wenguan and Sun Chuyue shouted loudly, there were scholars all around the Pujiu Temple, when they heard that some scholars were about to be beaten by Qinghe Cui's family, they immediately came up one after another.

The young scholar had such a spirit of blood and courage, and immediately confronted the slaves of the Cui family, claiming to seek justice.

This is beyond Mrs. Cui's expectations. She originally wanted not to make the matter so big, otherwise it would be a hindrance to her daughter's reputation in the future, but the group of scholars insisted on seeking justice, saying that the Cui family beat others with power. If not, I will sue the county government.The governor of Qinghe County is the Cui family, and Mrs. Cui is not worried about losing the lawsuit, but if she goes to the county government, everyone will know about the lawsuit, and the Cui family will lose face in the future.

In the end, Mrs. Cui could only agree to find a hall, and reason with a group of scholars.

Inside the Buddhist hall, the beaded curtain hangs low, and Li Zhiwan and Concubine Cui Chu are hidden behind the beaded curtain.Concubine Cui Chu was so anxious that she was about to cry. She was just a girl with a vain heart at first, but she didn't expect that things would become so big, and what would happen to her reputation in the future.

But behind the bead curtain, Concubine Cui Chu looked at this piece of Wenguan, her face was like a crown of jade, she could tell at a glance that she was a handsome, suave and unconventional person, she suddenly thought about it, if my future husband has such a talent and appearance, it would be great.If you obey your parents' orders, even if you marry Fan Yanglu, Zhaojun Li, Xingyang Zheng, Taiyuan Wang and other big family children, most of them are not like this person.Then I thought that the other party was going to take the county exam, and he was a talented and learned person, who was much better than those children of big families who were waiting for their parents to shadow officials.

So Concubine Cui Chu suddenly forgot about the predicament at this moment, and suddenly came up with the idea that it would be good for me to marry this person in the future.
At this moment, a group of scholars behind Zhang Wenguan waved flags and shouted, and saw a [-]-fold Hunan skirt exposed behind the bead curtain. When he turned around, there was a faint sound of the ring pendant, and he knew that Miss Cui must be behind the bead curtain.Zhang Wenguan shook the folding fan lightly in his hand, suddenly became angry, and even looked at the bead curtain frequently, with an expression of knowing that you were peeping at me behind the bead curtain.

Li Zhiwan looked at Concubine Cui Chu from behind the bead curtain, and then at Zhang Wenguan, but seeing the expressions of the two at the moment, she couldn't help but suppress her own smile.At this moment, Zhang Wenguan knew that the beautiful woman was there, so he went up to Mrs. Cui and said in a loud voice: "The old lady is on the top, and I'm being polite."

Mrs. Cui was sitting on a sandalwood chair. Although her teeth were itching with hatred for this Wen Guan, she still had a calm expression on her face and said, "Who are you? Where are you from?"

Zhang Wenguan immediately said: "My surname is Zhang, my first name is Wenguan, and my courtesy name is Zhigui. I am from Qinghe. My ancestor is the descendant of Marquis Liu. My brother Wen Cong is a householder in this county. I am studying in Pujiu Temple with two friends, and I plan to go to this autumn. Qiu Wei, because he has no official status, he has not yet married a wife..."

"Okay, okay, who wants you to talk so much." Mrs. Cui showed a slightly impatient look.

Mrs. Cui also knew about the Zhang family in Qinghe, and it was also a big family in the county. Although it was not as good as the Cui family in Qinghe, there was a saying at that time that the Zhang family came from Qinghe.

Speaking of this, Zhang Wenguan came to help, and Sun Chuyue also stood up.Lai Ji said carelessly: "The old lady is here, and I am coming down to Ji. His ancestral home is Xinye, Nanyang. My father is the former General Zuo Yiwei, Doctor Guanglu, and Kaifu Yitong Sansi Rong Guogong."

Hearing this, all the scholars were stunned, thinking that Duke Rong, isn't he the general Hu'er who conquered Liaodong in those days? When Jiangdu changed, Yu Wenhuaji murdered Emperor Yang of Sui, and came to protect his son and refused to be killed by a thief. Killing, the world praises you for protecting your son's loyalty.

Everyone did not expect that Zhang Wenguan and Laiji both had such extraordinary backgrounds.In the end, Sun Chuyue reported his name. Although he was also from Qinghe, his family background was mediocre.

Mrs. Cui immediately looked at the three of them and said: "All of you are not descendants of famous families, but you are also educated and reasonable people. Why do you behave so frivolously and come to tease the daughter of the old man? Could it be that you are bullying me that the Cui family is not strict."

Zhang Wenguan hurriedly said: "The old lady runs the family seriously, and she has frosty practices, how dare we bully her."

Speaking of this, Zhang Wenguan recounted the conversation between him and Concubine Cui Chu just now, inside and outside the courtyard wall, like beans poured into a bamboo tube, telling them one by one.Zhang Wenguan's eloquence is quite convenient. From the three people's aspirations to the conversation with Concubine Cui Chu, the whole story of what he said was clear, and everyone seemed to listen to it like a storyteller.

All the scholars heard that this was clearly a play on purpose by a concubine in love.Mrs. Cui was furious when she heard it, especially her daughter's words that she was so young and young as flying catkins, which immediately made her furious.As for Concubine Cui Chu, she was dumb inside eating Coptis chinensis, she couldn't tell the pain, so she said bitterly: "This is over, this is over."

"Both of my brothers can testify to this matter, and it's not my family's nonsense." Zhang Wenguan said loudly.

Mrs. Cui slammed her crutches and shouted: "Shut up, my daughter's family is a lady, how could you do such a frivolous act, you are molesting my daughter with nonsense, believe it or not, I will play it to Cui Junshou, and send the three of you to the court today." Qualified for the test!"

As soon as these words came out, all the scholars were in an uproar.

What is this? This is a blatant use of power to oppress people. Mrs. Cui deliberately pointed out the word Cui Junsu, the governor of Qinghe County, to remind everyone that Cui Junsu, the governor of Qinghe County, is a member of the Cui family. Little Xiami, he has not yet succumbed to the power of the Cui family.

Mrs. Cui's expression softened a little, and there were only two paths before the three scholars, one was to admit that they were talking nonsense, and the other was to lose the qualification of the autumn examination, so don't worry about them not giving in.

Mrs. Cui did not expect that, Zhang Wenguan said angrily: "How can a man lose his reputation because of this, he missed the autumn test, that is, he missed the autumn test, but what Cai said just now, every sentence is true, if there is a half-truth, it will be thunderous."

Mrs. Cui's expression changed. Seeing Zhang Wenguan's resoluteness, she thought to herself that she underestimated this person's courage, and it was not through intimidation.Mrs. Cui looked at Lai Ji again, and Sun Chu said to the two of them: "This man belittled my daughter. You didn't take part in it. You don't have to lose your bright future because of your friend's loyalty. What do you mean?"

Mrs. Cui made one move and tried another. She wanted to isolate Zhang Wenguan. If the three of them contradicted each other, no one would listen to Zhang Wenguan's words, and her daughter's reputation would be preserved.

Laiji said proudly: "My father died in Jiangdu in order not to lose morality. I am not one-tenth as good as my late father, but I also know what it means to stand on faith. What Brother Zhang said just now is true. I wish to prove it with all my strength. Of."

"Okay, okay, okay!" Mrs. Cui sneered again and again, being tough again.She looked at Sun Chuyue and said: "The two of them are from a noble family, even if they don't study hard, they can still live in peace. I see that your family is poor, and you have studied hard for ten years in a poor window for the present. Seeing that you are young and promising, Jiang Sha Adding a body is like picking up mustard, there is no point in losing your future in order to protect your brother who molested my daughter."

Mrs. Cui saw Sun Chuyue's humble appearance, which was completely different from Zhang Wenguan and Laiji's aggressiveness, and thought that he was a nerd, such a person had no opinions, and would be afraid when threatened, not to mention his family background was not very good , There is only one way to submit.

Sun Chuyue stepped forward, first made a long bow, and then bowed to the ground.

Mrs. Cui saw that this person was so thoughtful, she turned slightly and said, "I dare not be such a great gift."

Sun Chuyue smiled and said: "The elder is above, how could he not give the full courtesy."

Mrs. Cui said with a smile on her face: "You are very polite. If you dare to speak out the truth, I will not hold you accountable."

Sun Chuyue smiled and said: "Thank you, old lady, for your tolerance towards the younger generation. Although I come from a poor family, I also know that the sage said that righteousness is based on benevolence. If you sacrifice your life for the sake of morality, how can fame and wealth compare with that. I would like to prove that The two elder brothers, everything they said is true, and there is absolutely no deception in the slightest."

Seeing Sun Chuyue being so proud, the scholars present all applauded.Someone said righteously: "Mrs. Cui, we respect that your Cui family is a famous family, but you can't ruin the future of the three of them just because you made your daughter's reputation better."

"Yeah, I think this scene is going to hurt Miss Cui's reputation. I think the two of them have a lot of affection when they ask and answer. How about Mrs. Cui turning a bad thing into a good thing and helping them both? Isn't it the beauty of adults? "

Mrs. Cui laughed angrily and said: "The marriage contract is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. How can I, a daughter of the Cui family, say that I have no shame in arranging a private life with you? You three are wasting your time reading poetry and books. You really don't want to." I'm so determined to ruin my daughter's reputation, I'll bring the lawsuit to the county government today! Quickly, take my post and ask Governor Cui to decide this matter, and you and the others will take it down for me now."

As soon as Mrs. Cui said, the servants of the Cui family next to her were about to attack.The scholars made a noise.

"Wait!"

At this time, one person stopped shouting suddenly, and everyone looked at it and didn't know when a person entered the hall, but Li Zhiwan, who was behind the curtain, saw the face of that person, her eyes suddenly turned red, and there were countless feelings in her heart, mixed feelings.
