Xiahou Ba had just got up and had not washed up, but learned from Xiahou Bupo that the Lu Jiao came to Xiahoufang and broke the engagement in public.

Xiahou Ba was so angry that he was furious that he kicked over the water basin. You were so angry that he cursed in the dormitory for a full cup of tea. Then he turned his face and ordered his servants to fetch water to wash and wear it.

When Zhu Xiuyi heard the news, she saw that the old master had already put on purple court robes and was ready to enter the palace to face the saint.

"What are you going to do with your lord?" Zhu Xiuyi waved her hand and signaled her servant holding Jinxianguan to go out first.

"Go to see Huangfu Yu!" Xiahou Bayu roared in anger: "Since his surname Lu is ignorant, what else do I have to worry about? I want to go to Changle Palace and ask Huangfu Yu to take Lu from the imperial list and never accept it! Since you can't get your luck back, it's the same if you ruin your luck!"

"The Grand Master thinks twice..." Zhu Xiuyi shook her head and looked disagreeable.

"What's the point of thinking? His surname is Lu, who dares to retire from my husband's marriage, should know that there will be such consequences!" Xiahou Ba shouted with a red face and a thick neck: "I want to see if he, Huangfu Yu, have the courage to take it for him!"

"Tai Shi, this is certain that he is venting his anger, but he is killing one thousand enemies and losing three thousand himself! This loss-making business cannot be done!" Zhu Xiuyi hurriedly advised: "Lu Yun is Lu Yun, and the land valve is a land valve, so we cannot confuse it. If we do this, we will punish Lu Yun, but we will completely make a mortal enemy with the land valve!"

"I have already made enemies! Could it be that I am still afraid that Lu Shang will not succeed?" Xiahou Ba snorted coldly without regard.

"What should Cui's family do? Cui Yan said that they would never break the engagement. Now Lu Yun chose Cui's family. No matter what he thought, he would definitely protect him this time." Zhu Xiuyi said bitterly: "The student just heard that Du Hui had gone to the Secretariat early in the morning. It is estimated that the Ministry of Rites is already rushing to make the emperor's list. Huangfu Yu clearly threw the problem to Cui Yan, and he was probably waiting for his lord to settle the score with him!"

"Well..." Xiahou Ba looked suffocated, twisted his beard and suppressed his anger, forcing himself to think. "You think, why would Cui Yan, rather offend me than make a marriage? Could it be that he..."

Xiahou Ba thought of a possibility and was shocked that his anger disappeared immediately, and replaced by a strong suspicion. "What are you doing with Huangfu Yu?"

"This is exactly what students are worried about." Zhu Xiuyi nodded slightly and said, "No matter what the truth is, we should not anger Cui's clan now and make Huangfu Yu's fisherman profit. After all, Cui's clan is not comparable to the land clan."

"Oh..." Xiahou Ba sighed in depressedly. Of course, he knew the importance of Cui's family. Not only did he rely on Cui Yan, the Secretary of State, to implement all his decisions and orders. Moreover, half of the governors in the world were children of Cui's family, and one-third of the county magistrates were governed. It can be said that Cui's family was governing this world. If he wanted to achieve great things smoothly, he could not do without Cui's support.

"The Grand Master wants to vent his anger, but there is no need to use such a big trick that is not worth the loss." Seeing Xiahou Ba being gradually convinced, Zhu Xiuyi's tone also slowed down. "It's better to distinguish Lu Xin, Lu Yun and Lu Jiao from Lu Jiao. If you only deal with those two fathers and sons, you will have all kinds of small tricks, which is enough to make them doomed."

"Hmph! Is that boy cheaper?" Xiahou Ba rationally agreed with Zhu Xiuyi's statement, but his tone became more and more suffocating and gritted his teeth.

"How could it be? So what if he was rated? Isn't it the Secretariat to decide for the appointment of an official?" Zhu Xiuyi smiled coldly and said, "The Grand Master just makes an excuse and puts him on the shelf. In less than a year or two, his holy product will become a waste."

"One or two years is too long, I don't want to wait!" Xiahou Ba said angrily.

"Then let's deal with Lu Xin first," Zhu Xiuyi said lightly: "Lu Yun is fresh after all, and he is too eye-catching to attack him. But Lu Xin, the Huanghua tomorrow, is the person mentioned by the Grand Master. How can he post it to him? Who dares to say nonsense?"

"Yeah." Xiahou Ba finally felt a little relieved. Suddenly he remembered a troublesome thing and couldn't help but smile: "I will arrange a good job for him tomorrow!"

.

The Minister of State.

When Cui Yan went out in the morning, he received a report from Deacon Guanfeng, saying that Lu Xin and Lu Xiu were waiting at the gate of Xiahou Fang before dawn. As soon as the gate opened, they blocked Xiahou Bushu and gave up the marriage in public.

This really surprised Cui Yan and had a headache, and of course he was a little bit of a secret joy. After all, for his granddaughter, he would rather offend Xiahou Ba, and even make Xiahou Bushu shatter the carriage. This shows that his granddaughter and Cui Fang are still very important in the other party's heart...

When he arrived at the Shangshu Deck and saw that the old eunuch Du Hui was already waiting there, he had only a headache left.

"My father-in-law is here to give the imperial list?" Cui Yan looked at Du Hui with laughter and cry.

"I also want to ask Lao Lingjun for a reward." Du Huihan smiled and said with a smile: "Our family has read the imperial list. Your future grandson-in-law has been appointed by His Majesty as the first holy qualifier since the founding of the Daxuan country."

"Oh, hehe..." Cui Yan smiled dryly and put his arms around Du Hui and said, "You old, Mr. Du, come with me. Your Majesty is putting me on the fire, don't you know?"

"Oh, there are gains and losses. I believe Ling Jun has made plans long ago." Du Hui was not easy to meet, and he also smiled and said with a smile on his face: "Or I wouldn't have sent someone to the Land Valve to spread that message yesterday."

"Haha, hehe..." Cui Yan was a mute and couldn't say anything about his suffering. He didn't expect Xiahou Ba to propose marriage to him for a while? How could he expect that his granddaughter would have such a bad relationship with Lu Yun?

It's really good luck, and the word "正" is written on the head. Cui Yan could only swallow his teeth and smiled, "Come on, let's do it, let's have tea in there."

.

Cui Yan handed over the matters on the imperial list to the Ministry of Rites. He and Du Hui lit incense and savored tea in the room, chatting neither salty nor lightly.

Du Hui looked at the sky. It was almost noon, but he still did not see the officials of the Ministry of Rites come back to report. He understood very well that Cui Yan was delaying the time and wanted to see if the old teacher had any actions.

Du Hui was also unsure. If Xiahou Ba really stopped the emperor's list regardless of his face, no one would be able to do anything to him.

After noon, Cui Yan knew that Xiahou Ba would not move immediately, so he nodded slightly to Cui Pingzhi who was standing beside him.

Cui Pingzhi went out on the pretext. After a while, Wei Qing, the Minister of Rites, held a golden imperial list and walked into the Shangshu Ling's office with a solemn expression.

"Qi Bian Ling, Eunuch Du, the imperial list has been produced, can I post it?"

"Yes." Cui Yan nodded slightly.

"Abide by the order!" Wei Qing is a member of the Wei family. He doesn't care about his own affairs, so he will naturally obey his orders.

"Then our family will go back to report." Du Hui sighed and bowed to Cui Yan and smiled: "Thank you for your good tea."
