Chapter 719: Certificate of Surrender
It's always good at home, but everything is difficult when going out.
Unless absolutely necessary, who would be willing to leave their hometown and live under someone else’s roof?
I used to think that the Cui family was a family that stood at the top of the world. No matter how windy or rainy it was, no matter how the dynasty changed, I would never fall.
A century-old dynasty and a millennium-old family. In the eyes of the Cui family, the dynasty is just a toy for them. When it cannot represent their interests, they can replace it with another one.
They are used to being proud, and they never thought that one day they would be in a dilemma, with no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth.
The person who can sit in this room is at least the helmsman of the Cui family or a very important figure. Normally, he can call the shots and feel omnipotent, but at this moment, everyone is at a loss and everyone is looking at him. , all focused on Cui Shu, who was sitting at the top.
In any case, Cui Shu is still an innate master and the patriarch recognized by everyone. Even the third and fifth bedrooms, the two heads of family who have always supported Cui Cheng, the people who stay at home now have to Support Cui Shu to take the position of head of the family.
Cui Ming's death tied everyone tightly together.
Cui Shu is not a fool. Cui Ming's death was indeed his fault, but the decision was made jointly by everyone in this room, and this decision is now in Cui Shu's hands. Everyone in this room Signed.
If this matter comes out, the Cui family will no longer need to exist.
No matter what the reason is, such a thing must be intolerable to the world.
Cui Ming has entered the devil's path. Anyone can kill him, but not the Cui family.
Such things as righteousness and annihilation of relatives will be praised publicly, but privately they will be poked in the spine. If it is a small person, it would be fine, but a big family like the Cui family pays attention to a king, king, minister, father, father and son. You don’t have to abide by the first four words, but the last four words are the foundation of their life.
"Second brother, you are the head of the family now. You have to make an idea about what we are going to do next!" Cui Tu, the fourth bedroom, said loudly.
Cui Shu stood up and glanced at everyone's faces. The room slowly became quiet, and everyone's eyes focused on Cui Shu.
"Actually, our choices are very limited now!" Cui Shu said: "Big brother's failure in Nanyang has made us even more passive. The old family leader's earlier arrangement to go to Nanyang to make a comeback is actually no longer possible."
"If we can't hold Boling, we can't go to Nanyang, and we don't have a new territory, how will our family live in the future?" Someone asked: "And the head of the family, with all due respect, if there is no territory that truly belongs to us, what will happen in the future?" Our Cui family will definitely lose the greatest centripetal force and cohesion. I'm afraid It will become a mess. The house owners who have more financial resources are better off, but the poorer ones may do something if they are forced to live in the future! The Cui family will lose their territory and their reputation will suffer again. Damage, it’s self-evident what the outcome will be!”
"Go to Chang'an and join Linghuye. How much support have we given to the Linghu clan over the years? Now it's not an exaggeration to ask him to give us a place to recuperate in the Central Plains, right?" Cui Dong, the third room, said with some lack of confidence.
Cui Tuchi laughed: "Third brother, are you naive or stupid?"
"Did you talk to third brother like this?" Cui Dong was furious.
"Have you not seen Li Guohua's intention? Our hidden line in Boling County has just sent back Li Guohua's new plan. He has determined that Boling County cannot defend it, so the next defenses in Shanggu and Yuyang are not suitable for They are very important, and behind them is the Loop District, this is their second and third lines of defense, and the purpose of our current existence in Boling County is to buy time for the deployment of the second and third lines of defense. And the Cui family will be destroyed next. He went to the front line to sweat and bleed!”
"It's a beautiful idea, why don't they go?" "Because they just want to consume us and then devour us in one gulp!" Cui Tu said coldly: "The five thousand armored men are gone. Li Guohua thinks that we are already a capable person." A soft persimmon that can be manipulated by others . Head of the family, if we can’t go to Nanyang, then our fourth house is firmly opposed to leaving Boling County. Once we leave here, our fate will inevitably be to become vassals of the Linghu clan, and then be driven by them to shed the last drop of blood. ! ”
"But our Cui family and Li Dachui are mortal enemies. If we don't follow the Linghu family, who can we follow to fight this?" Someone sighed: "The general trend of the world is now roughly clear. It is nothing more than Li Dachui in Beiting and Linghu in Chang'an. The competition between the wilds is over.”
"Who said we and Li Dachui are mortal enemies!" Cui Peng of the Sixth Fang shook his head. "The previous generation did have some grievances, but these grievances have been settled with the departure of the old family leader. Why can't we, this generation, start over?"
"Does Li Dachui agree?"
"How do you know if you don't give it a try? Didn't Fan Yang and Lu Xin's father also participate in the Battle of Chang'an? You can see that Lu Xin and Li Dachui are still fighting fiercely now. This shows that Li Dachui is a very practical person and fancy. Those are real benefits and benefits, and other false names are not what he Don't care, this is also very consistent with our investigation and understanding of this person over the years. It's just that second brother, oh, no, Patriarch, our old feud with Li Dachui can be resolved. This new injury on your body was also caused by Li Dachui. Are you right? What do you think about this? You are the head of the family, you make the decision!”
Cui Shu took a deep breath and slowly touched his left shoulder with his left hand. His face looked a little painful. His right arm was broken by Li Dachui's hand.
"What Lao Liu said is also a path. If everyone is determined to negotiate with Li Dachui, then my personal face and grudges are nothing. Naturally, the interests of the family should be the most important thing!"
"Even if the head of the family is willing, how much capital do we still have to negotiate terms with Li Dachui?" Cui Dong said loudly.
"Why don't we have capital? Our capital is very strong!" Cui Tu said: "Isn't Li Guohua our capital? Aren't the tens of thousands of troops in Boling County our capital?"
< br>
Everyone in the room fell silent, Cui Tu's words were naked and did not conceal his true intentions.
That is to use people like Li Guohua from Boling County as their promotion level, which can also be regarded as a certificate of fame.

"If we really do this, wouldn't my elder brother in Dongdu be in danger?" Cui Dong shook his head repeatedly.
"Third brother, you don't care about eldest brother. You care about the people in your third room who just rushed to Dongdu, right? I don't think you need to care at all. Even if we fall out with Linghuye and become enemies, he will not take advantage of eldest brother. How about it, maybe I’ll be nicer to my eldest brother!”
"What did you say?" Cui Dong was a little confused.
Cui Shu glanced at him and said: "Third brother, being rich is the foundation of our Cui family. But over the years, our Cui family has also spread its branches. We have wealth all over the world, friends all over the world, and of course our reputation. All over the world, these things, Linghuye He also wants to be in control. If Ling Huye turns against us here, he will most likely give us a severe blow while supporting Big Brother to fight for our right to speak, so Big Brother and the others will not be in any danger!"
< br>
Cui Dong suddenly realized that what Cui Shu said was indeed true.
"Third brother, if the eldest brother falls out with Linghuye here, he can be bolder and think more broadly, and directly join forces with Xiao Zhongren in Nanyang, or even go directly to Xiangyang to find Jiang Qian, and get the If Dongdu forms an alliance with Jiang Qian as capital, then our Cui family may still be able to occupy the top position in the new dynasty!" Cui Tu said with a smile.
Hearing this, Cui Dong took a breath. Cui Tu's idea was indeed whimsical, but it was really possible to implement it.
"Brother can't think of this!" Cui Shu shook his head: "And we can't coordinate and act synchronously with eldest brother now, because it's too late. In a few days, Li Guohua and the others will come to the Cui family's old house. We want to take them Doing cutting is just such an opportunity.”
