Chapter 1140 Chapter 1140: The damage is too great (Part 2) [Please vote]
“What is ‘Versailles’?”
Cui Hui guessed that it might be a dialect slang unique to the North.
"The so-called 'Versailles' is when someone uses euphemistic expressions to inadvertently show a sense of superiority. Anyone who is not blind will not think that your ex-husband's face is really no longer youthful." Twenty-five-six If a face full of collagen looks old, how can a person in his seventies or eighties claim to be old?
This is not Versailles, what is it?
Cui Hui silently wrote down this word, then silently lowered his tone, and softly defended his ex-husband: "...It's not that I speak for him, he may really think that he is not fresh enough... It's just that I understand and understand, but he has repeatedly said this in front of me Mentioning this... Tsk, the clay figure still has an earthy nature, how can I not feel angry? His aging is fake, but I am real!"
Shen Tang: “…”
You adults have quite complicated feelings.
Cui Hui's eyebrows and eyes were filled with sadness.
At first glance, there are a lot of stories waiting to be told.
Perhaps Shen Tang was born lacking this strength. She didn't quite understand: "If that's the case, why did you still make peace with him?"
If it’s just this point, it’s completely fair to say.
Cui Hui brought two jugs of wine from nowhere, picked up one of the pots and patted open the red cloth wine seal. Niu took a sip before talking.
"Well, there are many reasons. Although each one is insignificant, but all together, it was a dead end for me at that time... Looking back now, maybe I was unwilling to accept it. Because of this man, I learned how to be a reckless woman in the world. The mistress of the aristocratic family thinks that she has done a good enough job, even if she is not as good as the women from the aristocratic family who have been trained as mistresses since childhood, but it has not embarrassed him and Mr. Cui. However, after so many years, his parents-in-law are still dissatisfied and the clan members are not convinced... Is it because I’m not capable enough to convince the public?”
Cui Hui once fell into self-doubt and was emotionally consumed.
She said: "At first, I suspected that it was my problem, but I soon realized that it had nothing to do with ability, and it was purely about my bloodline."
If your abilities are insufficient, you can learn to improve them.
Her bloodline is not enough, what can she do?
She cannot change the prejudices of the Cui family.
"...I was naive at that time and thought I would have the last laugh. No matter how much my parents-in-law disagreed with me, they could not stop their son from not being of the same mind as them and only turning their elbows towards me, an outsider. The descendants of Cui's lineage will all cherish me. No matter how much they dislike me, they can only hold their noses and admit it." Cui Hui comforted himself, "Until the king...well, she was just a feudal lord at that time, guarding a territory where there was no grass. Wang Ji, there is no one in the house...she found Mrs. Cui, and sure enough, she rose to prominence and now she is the head of the country as a woman..."
“Everyone in the Cui family hopes that the old relationship between their family master and this king will rekindle, and they also hope that I can abdicate the throne in favor of someone worthy of my honour.”
Cui Hui had a good drinker, but he was a bit drunk at the moment. He sneered disdainfully, "I really pity my ex-husband. He and his beloved wife were also newlyweds back then, and they had a very deep relationship. However, because of the conflict between his father's generation and the royal family, the couple was They were forced to separate. Now that his wife is prosperous, his elders hope that they can get back together... The child they gave birth to is not a son, but an Israeli servant? Didn't they ask for trouble back then? If you let your son get involved now, he can only become one of the male favorites of the king... No matter how you look at it, you will lose money. "
These became the final straw for Cui Hui.
Cui Hui covered his forehead and closed his eyes tightly.
His tone was lazy and drunk: "Hahaha, I am also afraid of the methods of these aristocratic families. I am afraid that one day I will be forced to die of illness and become his family's memorial tablet. Whoever likes to live in Cui's bird cage can live in it. But, To put it bluntly, I was scared at first, afraid of starving to death outside. Even though I said life in the inner house of a noble family was depressing, there were servants waiting for me when I came in and out. I deserve to be bitten by the birds. If I’m used to living in a bird cage like this, can I still survive if I fly out?”
Fortunately, she finally flew out.
No matter how long you live in an expensive bird cage, its wings have not deteriorated.
Only occasionally would she think of the three chicks still in the bird cage and their father, but let her go back to live in the bird cage? No, she couldn't accept it. She would rather freeze to death outside.
She was born to belong to the world outside the birdcage.
The bird cage, no matter how resplendent it is, is not her destination.
Shen Tang looked at Cui Hui, who had hugged his knees and huddled together at some point, and felt a rare sense of guilt in his heart. If it weren't for him, Cui Hui wouldn't have to go back to this place, let alone get entangled with the people in the past. Shen Tang whispered: "I'm sorry..."
Cui Hui covered his forehead for a moment and tilted his head to look at the well-behaved Lord Shen. Shen Tang's skin now does not have too much aggressive beauty, but rather has a bit of the gentleness of Xiaojiabiyu. When he doesn't speak, he looks really pitiful and cute.
“What are you apologizing for?”
But there was a lot of panic in my heart.
What did he say that caused the king to apologize?
“I know you don’t want to have any more entanglements with Ms. Cui…”
"Don't think so much, I don't get up early for no benefit." Cui Hui waved her hands hurriedly. She didn't want to be misunderstood as a noble and upright person. As soon as she came up, she said, "How can two kinds of people sleep in the same bed? The one with the surname Cui It's not a good thing... I mean - my ex-husband is not a good person, and I am just like that. I just want to seize an opportunity, and I am not willing to accept it."
Shen Tang: “…”
Cui Hui shook his head: "Actually, I also had a talent for cultivation, but I am too old and have already lost hope..."
There have been some women from Qi State who have been able to practice in recent years, but she is not included because she is too old. Cui Hui also knew that she could turn to her ex-husband for this matter. As long as her ex-husband was willing to become an official and take power, it would not be impossible to get enough national fortune to cleanse her marrow and bones.
But her pride did not allow her to say this.
other places?
She, an elderly woman, had no chance.
It wasn’t until this errand was placed in front of her that the idea that had been buried deep in her memory resurfaced, occupying her mind bit by bit. By some strange combination of circumstances, Cui Hui agreed to this nearly impossible task—even if the opponent was her ex-husband.
Shen Tang said: "Why don't you tell Shanxiao?"
If Cui Xiao knew this, he would be more energetic in his work.
Cui Huidao: "My mother's experience tells me that my father is unreliable; my experience tells me that the same is true for my husband. The wings grow on his own body, and he can only fly by waving himself..."
Instead of seeking the shelter of wings, it is better to grow your own wings.
Cui Hui drank both jars of wine alone.
She leaned on Shen Tang's shoulder and closed her eyes to take a nap.
Shen Tang was about to help Cui Hui in when a strange smell approached the yard. She pretended not to notice and fulfilled her duties as a little girl. Until that breath appeared a few steps away: "Give her to me, and you go down and rest."
Shen Tang seemed startled by the sound.
He raised his head in panic and met the eyes of the head of the Cui family.
The head of the house did not wait for Shen Tang to answer. He bent down and picked up the drunk Cui Hui, and walked straight in. The door closed automatically with a bang. Shen Tang shrugged, yawned and went to sleep.
Inside the house—
The head of the Cui family stared blankly at Cui Hui, who was shrouded in moonlight.
Cui Hui, who sleeps wildly, is not as thick-skinned as him and cannot pretend to be.
He rolled over and covered his head with the quilt.
He asked in a low voice: "What are you looking at?"
Cui Hui: “…”
Her ex-husband knew only too well the upper limit of her drinking capacity. Two jars of wine really couldn't get her drunk. Cui Hui became angry when his disguise was exposed. He reached out and grabbed a jade pillow and threw it out: "If you're not drunk, you're not drunk. I'm just leaning against the maid to sleep for a while. Does it bother you?" The jade pillow seemed to hit something and made a dull sound. .
Cui Hui hid in the quilt for a while, then suddenly opened it.
Ouch, my ex-husband’s forehead was hit and turned red.
“Who do you want to show the bitter meat plan to?”
“I’ll show you, but you won’t feel sorry for me.”
Cui Hui pursed his lips and asked him: "Are you wronged outside?"
“Zhao Jun is dead.”
Cui Hui subconsciously thought about who the "Zhao Jun" he mentioned was, but couldn't remember. It wasn't because she had a bad memory, but because she said, "Your friend named Zhao has a hundred or fifty friends. Which one do you want to say?"
The head of the Cui family said: "It doesn't matter which one."
Cui Hui: “…”
I really feel sorry for my ex-husband’s friends named Zhao.
She was curious: "How did he die?"
The head of the Cui family: "It was abandoned when it was of no value."
“Abandoned by whom?”
"Abandoned by everyone." When the head of the Cui family said this, his expression was somewhat pitiful. He didn't care whether Cui Hui understood it or not, and he said it as if no one was watching, "...if no one acquiesces in sacrificing this chess piece, the Zhao family will How can Shangxia be so peaceful? Even if I leave for a few days, he will not be able to fight back. Therefore, he was killed as a bargaining chip. "
Some people in the Zhao family were attracted by the king.
In the struggle between the main branch and the side branch, the side branch also won a great victory.
Zhao could just change the head of the family, and her life would still be peaceful. No, maybe it will be better than before. After this incident, the Zhao family's past messes were forcibly settled by the king, and they secretly sided with the king, which naturally brought many benefits.
“Are you sad that a rabbit is dead and a fox is dead, and things harm their own kind?”
The head of the Cui family said: "Maybe."
The ex-wife who was sacrificed by power, now Zhao Jun, may still have herself in the future: "Kewu, you shouldn't come back. Staying with Qi Yuanliang may be the best way out for you..."
Cold, Cui Hui's words scared Cui Hui.
Her face turned pale and her heart was pounding.
"What did you say?"
"Qi Yuanliang, I have been looking for you before." The head of the Cui family said in a calm tone, "Although I don't know what your relationship is, Qi Yuanliang once looked for you many years ago. But he didn't find any clues. My people were sent back."
The power of the Northwest Gods Association is not effective in the southwest.
Similarly, the southwestern forces are not easy to use in other areas.
He only knew that Cui Hui and Qi Yuanliang were related.
How deep and entangled it is, I don’t know.
"What's the best way out? You're still as arrogant as before. It's up to me, Cui Kewu, to decide whether you're good or not!" Cui Hui secretly curled his fingers, forcing himself to calm down, with cold eyes, "Yes, he and I are There is a history, so what? When Qi Yuanliang came to me, he was guilty of me, and he owed me! Do you think that if a man wants to stay, a woman will forgive you? What is it? He looks for me like a needle in a haystack, so I should feel resentful of you if you say a few harsh words for me?"
"Here to me, you two are the same."
Cui Hui said it plausibly.
"I can let you go, why can't I let him go?"
Cui Hui's words are half true and half false, and they are justified.
Qi Yuanliang really owes her.
In this case, it is not too much to let her take advantage of it.
The head of the Cui family had just made some guesses before, but when he heard Cui Hui admit it personally, he still felt sour in his heart - he didn't expect that Ke Wu's love debt was not only a senior brother who died early without even being paid to worship, but also Qi Yuanliang! I used to be angry that a dead person could still be in my way, but now it's better, a living person is here!
"That's not what I meant." The head of the Cui family said softly, with a hint of flattery, "It's just that Qi Country is also a place of right and wrong nowadays, and I can't say that I can protect you without any risk."
"I don't need you to protect me. As long as no one leaks the past grudges between me and Qi Yuanliang, I won't be safe, and I won't be taken hostage by inexplicable forces. In fact, it would be in vain if I were caught." Cui Hui The words were sarcastic and the words were undisguised disgust, "You guys are really interesting. You can still have a 'tacit understanding' even if you are worlds apart. Qi Yuanliang once said something similar. It's a pity that when I told him, I was just Cui His concubine, he knew I had no use value... Haha, what guilt, what true feelings-"
Cui Hui raised his hand and pinched the chin of the head of the Cui family.
Forcing the other person to look directly into your eyes.
Her fingers left clear fingerprints on the other person's face, giving him a vague feeling of being abused, broken and fragile. Cui Hui forced himself to continue: "You and him, do you have such a thing?"
"I have!"
"You said you had it?" Cui Hui smiled and knelt down to look at him levelly, and touched the red mark on his forehead with his fingers. "Since you said you had it, why did you deliberately test me just now? Do you think, I'm so stupid, so stupid, and I'm still willing to turn around and be a **** for a man at such an old age?"
"I don't!"
The head of the Cui family said this in shame and anger, and was extremely dissatisfied with Cui Hui's speculation. Even though he had tried all his plans, he had never plotted against Cui Hui. In her eyes, did he look like this? She actually thought she was suspecting that she was instigated by others when she returned home?
Even so, Cui Hui’s eyes were still full of disbelief.
The head of the Cui family blurted out.
“I just care about you and him!”
Want to ask but don’t dare to ask, afraid of hearing an answer I don’t want to hear.
The result is that it would be better not to ask.
The answer was more infuriating than expected.
Cui Hui was startled. Did they just talk like a chicken?
She thought that Cui was testing whether she and Qi Yuanliang had a cooperative relationship, but in the end, he was purely concerned about whether Qi Yuanliang and she had "rekindled their old relationship"? Cui Hui let go of his hand: "What do you care about? You and I have been together for many years, do you have the right to care?"
One sentence will turn a person's face into an earthy color.

I feel a bit feverish today and the chapter is a bit short.
PS: As soon as summer comes, I can’t help but turn on the air conditioner 24 hours a day. I turned it on at 19 degrees yesterday and I used too much force_(:з」∠)_If the word count can’t keep up with the update, I’ll post it first, and I’ll make up for the remaining words (there are more No points will be collected for supplementary content).
