"Master Li!"
Cui Shun cupped his hands in front of the visitor and greeted him politely. The visitor is Li Wei, the head of the Li family in Wei County.
The Li family of Wei County and the Cui family of Qinghe are equally powerful. The ancestors of the Cui family were ministers of the Warring States Period, and so were the ancestors of the Li family. Moreover, the Li family claimed to be descendants of Li Mu, which made their background even greater.
Li Wei did not ride in a carriage, but came on horseback with his men. His body was strong and his toughness was undoubtedly evident.
"Master Cui, I heard that the rising star of the Cui family, Cui Lin, has been promoted to the head of Jizhou. Congratulations."
After Li Wei dismounted, he laughed and congratulated Cui Shun, but the jealousy flashed in his eyes.
"Where, where, haha"
Cui Shun was so proud that he couldn't help laughing and said: "It's far, far worse."
For big families like them, it is best for someone in the family to serve as an official. The bigger the official, the higher the status of the family and the more benefits it will receive.
"It seems that we need to win over Cui Lin more." Cui Shun laughed, but made up his mind.
Cui Lin is Cui Yan's cousin. Cui Lin was looked down upon by the clan members when he was young. Even Cui Shun disliked Cui Lin and only liked Cui Yan very much.
¡° However, what Cui Shun didn¡¯t expect was that when Cui Yan soared into the sky, Cui Lin also ushered in a great opportunity in his life. After Liu Zhe captured Jizhou, Cui Lin was appointed Gaotang Wuchang, a position inferior to that of many young men of his clan.
After Liu Zhe came to Jizhou, he was actually promoted to Cui Lin's official position, from a small dock chief to the head of Jizhou. This is no longer called Guangzong and honoring his ancestors, but can make his ancestors' graves emit green smoke. For a time, Cui Lin was envied and jealous by many people from the same clan.
"Huh, you're just a boss, what's there to be happy about?"
Suddenly, a cold snort sounded, inserting into the conversation between Cui Shun and Li Wei.
The two of them turned around and saw that it was Lu Jun, the head of the Lu family, and Zheng Ping, the head of the Zheng family, who had arrived together. The cold snort was made by Lu Jun.
"I'm glad, right?"
Lu Jun said to Cui Shun unhappily: "A mere boss can make the head of the Cui family so happy. When did the head of the Cui family become ignorant of the world?"
?????????????? For a big family like theirs, not to mention a boss, a prefect or a prime minister.
¡°Hmph, may I ask what is the highest official position for the children of the Lu family now?¡± Cui Shun counterattacked coldly.
Lu Jun's face turned even darker when he mentioned this. Among the children of the Lu family who served as officials under Liu Zhe, the highest official position was a long history in Handan City. This official position was only given because of the Lu family's influence in Handan.
"One is the long history of a city, and the other is the leader of a state. It's clear who is higher and who is lower.
It is precisely for this reason that the Lu family just mocked Cui Shun. They were not really mocking Cui Shun for not having seen the world, but they were jealous of Cui Shun. If someone from the Lu family became the head of Jizhou, he might be even happier and laugh louder than Cui Shun.
"snort."
The Lu family was unhappy and were about to fight back when Zheng Ping spoke up and said, "Okay, we start arguing as soon as we meet. What's the point of arguing? Have you forgotten the business of today?"
"Yes, what Master Zheng said is right."
Li Wei also agreed, saying: "When everyone gets here, we should unite as one, and we must not start any internal strife."
Everyone is familiar with the several big families in Jizhou. They are all big families, so it is inevitable that they will fight openly and secretly and do dirty things underneath.
But today everyone was invited here by Liu Zhe. In view of Liu Zhe's visit to Nanpi just now, and in view of what happened in Nanpi, the four major families smelled something bad.
So after listening to Zheng Ping's words and Li Wei's words, Cui Shun and Lu Jun looked at each other, just snorted coldly, and stopped bickering.
"Tell me, why did he ask us to come here?"
There was silence for a while. During this process, many heads of the arriving families came over to say hello. After dealing with the head of the newly arrived family, Zheng Ping was the first to speak.
¡°I don¡¯t know, but what is certain is that it is definitely not as simple as coming to invite us to dinner.¡± Lu Jun said.
"Could it be related to the rebellion in Bohai?" As soon as Cui Shun said this, the other three people's hair stood up.
The rebellion in Bohai has been reported to them, and the results have also been reported. The rebels suffered almost all casualties, and all the participating families were slaughtered. It can be said that this rebellion has reduced at least half of the families in Bohai County. Especially Nanpi City, where the bigThe family was almost killed by Liu Zhe, leaving only two or three kittens.
If Liu Zhe thinks that these families are related to the rebellion in Bohai, then these families will be dead.
"No, it can't be."
¡°Li Wei claimed to be a descendant of Li Mu, and he usually appeared in front of everyone with a tough and tough image, but when he thought of this possibility, he was trembling in his heart.
"That's right, we didn't get involved. We don't know anything about this matter." Lu Jun also swallowed his saliva and said.
Liu Zhe is unbeatable in Hebei. Even Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are not Liu Zhe's opponents. Once Liu Zhe wants to attack these families, they have no power to resist. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
