Northern Song Dynasty gangster: Start the game with a dog's head, and Mr. Bao spares his life

"If these people are allowed to live high in the temple and enjoy wealth and honor, wouldn't they tell the world that they can become high-ranking officials by killing people and setting fire to them?"

"At that time, what prestige does the imperial court still have?"

This is what Taishi Pang said, and Bao Zheng probably meant the same thing.

It is similar to the argument of Cai Jing and others in the original work.

Therefore, from the moment Gao Lian sent his envoy, he had already been charged with treason by the court.

Why Gao Qiu did not dare to come back, one may be that Liang Shan did not allow it, and the other may be that Gao Qiu was afraid of being punished by the court.

But in this way, his crime is even more serious.

Losing a teacher and humiliating the country, bowing his knees and throwing himself at the thief.

In addition, many crimes were exposed in the court, and the emperor directly sentenced him to the crime of ransacking his family and exterminating his family.

Before discussing how to deal with Liangshan, the order to seize the house has already been issued.

Letting Kaifeng Mansion send people to ransack the house undoubtedly gave Cao Bin a chance.

The enmity between him and Gao Qiu has not lasted for a day or two, and it finally came to his unlucky time.

This day was the most active time Cao Bin got up.

Before dawn, Cao Bin surrounded Taiwei's mansion with a group of yamen servants and Xiang soldiers from Kaifeng mansion.

"What are you doing?"

As soon as the gate was opened, the wolf-like yamen servants and soldiers had kicked over the "porter" and rushed into the Taiwei's mansion.

Cao Bin waved his hand and said:

"Drive everyone to the front yard to gather, and no one is allowed to destroy the property in the mansion. These are all owned by the imperial court."

"Yes!"

After the yamen servants and soldiers took orders, they immediately started to act.

In an instant, countless screams came from the Taiwei's mansion.

"What are you doing? My father is Gao Taiwei, let me go..."

At this time, a few yamen servants escorted the disheveled Gao Yameni out. It seemed that he hadn't gotten up yet.

When Gao Kan saw Cao Bin, panic flashed in his eyes:

"Brother Bin, can't I make a mistake? What are you doing?"

"My father is also an official ordered by the court. You will be punished by the court for doing this."

"You can't avenge yourself publicly!"

Cao Bin sneered and said:

"Are you worthy of letting me avenge my private revenge? It seems that you don't know yet that Gao Qiu has voted for Liang Shan bandits."

"The government has issued an order to confiscate your whole family. This time you can go in peace."

Gao Kan was dumbfounded when he heard the words: "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

But he looked around at the yamen servants and soldiers, and finally believed Cao Bin's words:

"Brother Bin, you are Grand Master Pang's son-in-law, please beg for me, as long as you don't kill me. Anything is fine!"

Seeing his snot and tears, Cao Bin lost interest immediately, and waved his hand to let the yamen guard take him aside.

Not long after, a group of women were brought up weeping.

The yamen servant came forward and reported: "Lord Cao, this is a female family member of the Taiwei Mansion."

Cao Bin nodded and said, "Is there a regulation on how to deal with these people?"

Cao Canjun, the soldier next to him, hurried forward and said:

"Reporting to my lord, all family members of criminal officials will be sent to the Jiaofang Division to pay for their crimes."

At this time, a woman in her thirties fell tremblingly in front of Cao Bin:

"My lord, please spare me, please don't send me to the Jiaofang Division."

"The concubine is not a family member of Gao Yanei, the concubine was snatched."

Cao Bin took a look at the woman, saw her face like a lotus, her figure was charming, and she was crying like pear blossoms with rain, he couldn't help but said with interest:

"Snatched?"

The woman nodded quickly and said:

"Yes... yes, this concubine is the... wife of Lin Chong, the head coach of the Imperial Army."

Cao Bin froze for a moment, then asked with a strange expression, "Lin Chong's wife?"

The woman shook her head sadly: "He divorced me!"

Afraid that Cao Bin would not believe it, she quickly lifted off the clothes on her arms, revealing blue and purple scars, and said with tears:

"My lord, this concubine is really not Gao Yanei's wife and concubine. He brought me into the mansion just for the fun of beating and scolding. My lord must trust me."

Cao Bin looked at Cao Canjun, the soldier beside him, and sighed:

"It's so pitiful. Is it convenient for such a weak woman to seek medical treatment from a doctor?"

Bing Cao Canjun was stunned for a moment, and tentatively said: "Why don't you take me back to the Hou's mansion to take care of her slowly?"

Cao Bin said: "Is it convenient? There is no problem with Mr. Bao."

Bing Cao Canjun nodded quickly and said: "It's convenient, it's convenient, it should be sent to Jiaofang Division anyway, where buying and selling are allowed."

Cao Bin smiled and said, "Don't worry about the money, I will pay for it, but you have to testify to me."

Bing Cao Canjun laughed: "My lord, don't worry... But it's best to check to see if she is pregnant..."

The woman blushed when she heard the words, "Master... Your lord, Gao Ya Nei was beaten to pieces by a loyal uncle."

After finishing speaking, she quickly lowered her head, not daring to look any further.

The soldier Cao Canjun glanced at Cao Bin with a strange expression, then at the poor Gao Yanei, and said with a smile:

"What a coincidence, Mr. Cao is Uncle Zhongjing!"

"what?"

The woman looked at Cao Bin in surprise, not knowing what to say.

As soon as he returned to Kaifeng Mansion, Zhan Zhao came to him and said that Bao Zheng had summoned him.

Cao Bin suddenly became anxious, wondering if Bao Zheng had discovered the tricks of the Taiwei Mansion.

After entering the back office, he saw Bao Zheng was wearing a foreign uniform, standing at the desk writing big characters, writing stroke by stroke very seriously.

"Pure heart is the root cause, and straightness is personal strategy.

Xiuqian will eventually become a building, and fine steel will not be used as a hook. "

After finishing writing, Bao Zheng handed the copybook to Cao Bin and said:

"Your Majesty has decreed that Hun Tianhou will be the commander in chief, and you will be the supervisor of the army to conquer Liangshan..."

"After this time, you may never come to my Kaifeng mansion again. This mansion only hopes that you can control your selfish desires in the future, and don't make life regretful!"

"Young talent, war is dangerous. This trip to Shandong, you must not be brave. Just leave the war to the widow of the Yang family!"

Taishi Pang exhorted carefully.

After leaving Kaifeng Mansion, Cao Bin went to Taishi Mansion.

Hearing Taishi Pang's words, Cao Bin nodded obediently and said:

"Don't worry, Grand Master, I know."

Grand Master Pang nodded in satisfaction and said, "It's also a rare opportunity this time, otherwise, I wouldn't want to call you out so soon."

As he spoke, he laughed:

"You are quite capable."

"He actually convinced Bao Heizi."

"These days, he said a lot of good things for you in court."

"It's a pity that your method of 'removing the wall and becoming a public servant' failed to pass in the court, otherwise you will get more benefits."

Cao Bin was stunned for a moment and said, "Oh? I didn't report to the court. Could it be that the Grand Master took credit for me?"

Grand Master Pang waved his hand and said:

"It's Bao Zheng's letter, and the old man never thought that he would have a quick mind."

"However, there are too many people who oppose this matter. Even if I speak for you, it will be difficult to pass."

After he finished speaking, he laughed:

"This time, you really have to thank him. If he hadn't withstood the pressure for you, you would have been impeached long ago."

Cao Bin didn't expect Bao Zheng to do so many things in the court, so he couldn't help but hissed:

"I thought Master Bao was difficult to get along with, but in fact, as long as he doesn't violate his principles, he's easy to talk to."

Grand Master Pang said with a smile:

"What the old man didn't expect was that you can do everything with ease after entering the Kaifeng Mansion. This really makes the old man look at you with admiration."

When Cao Bin heard this, he couldn't help complaining:

"Isn't the Grand Master moving too slowly? Otherwise, I wouldn't have suffered in Kaifeng Mansion."

Taishi Pang laughed loudly and said:

"Do you think it's easy to transfer out of Kaifeng Mansion? If it wasn't for the help of the empress in front of the officials, you would at least have to stay in Kaifeng Mansion for a year or so."

After speaking, he waved his hand and said:

"Okay, don't talk about that."

"This time you are conquering Liangshan, you just need to keep an eye on the widows of the Yang family and prevent them from doing anything out of line."

"After you come back, your credit will naturally not be less."

Although the positions of the military supervisors in the Song Dynasty ranged from high to low, they had great power.

In many cases, you can stand against the marshal and lead the army alone.

This is also the reason why Grand Master Pang told him, lest he might be aggressive and get himself killed.

However, he was overthinking.

Cao Bin still attaches great importance to his own life. Since he can get the credit safely, why should he take risks?

Besides, he still has a lot of confidence in the combat capability of the Yang family.

Return to Zhongjinghou Mansion.

Cao Bin also called Lai Fubo to inquire about the situation of the soldiers.

They will definitely be used in this expedition.

Although I don't intend to rush to the front line, I still need them to protect my safety.

"Young master, from September last year to April this year, after excluding various daily expenses, the mansion has earned a total of 12 yuan."

"After the next year, I bought another thousand horses from the Western Regions. It cost 3000 taels. Now I can have two horses for one person."

Seeing Cao Bin nodded, Uncle Fu went on to say:

"The rest of the money has been used to purchase heavy armor and crossbow materials."

"Now we have a full set of [-] sets of heavy armor and [-] Zhuge Liannu."

"In addition, the spears, waist knives, and bones you requested are all ready."

Cao Bin frowned and asked, "Why are there so few Zhuge Liannus? Could it be that Mr. Xia is being lazy?"

Faber shook his head and said:

"That's not true, it's just that the young master's requirements are too high, and the materials are also scarce, so there is a delay."
