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

However, in the face of Grand Master Pang's anger, Zhao Jue did not restrain himself. Instead, the old god took a sip of tea on the ground and said with a smile:

"It seems that the grand master has no confidence in this king. This king is recruiting talents from all over the world. Let the grand master see a few things today."

Hearing this, the great monk became more and more unscrupulous, turned around and aimed at the family member of the Grand Master's Mansion who rushed in from the door, and threw out a handful of iron beads.

"what......"

Those servants howled miserably, making Grand Master Pang's eyelids twitch.

At the same time, several masters from the rivers and lakes brought by Zhao Jue made their moves one after another, each showing their abilities.

"Grand Master Pang, where are the masters in your house? Why don't you call them out and compete with my incompetent subordinates?"

Seeing that his subordinates were showing great prowess, King Xiangyang immediately became happy and said carelessly.

Cao Bin glanced at Grand Master Pang and shouted: "Sedan, get on!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a roar outside the door.

Like a giant bear, the sedan chair rushed in front of the masters of the Xiangyang Prince's Mansion and went on a rampage.

"Oops..."

"My mother!"

Those masters of the rivers and lakes were knocked to the ground in an instant, and the fists of the sedan chair were like hammers, smashing them to the point of crying.

The big monk shook his fat belly and was about to get behind the sedan chair, but he grabbed his neck and lifted him up like a little chicken.

"Master, kill him?"

Cao Bin smiled and said to the King of Xiangyang:

"My lord, is this what you call an elite in the world?"

"Can they fight against the enemy, or can they govern one side?"

"In the eyes of the prince, the world's talents are not just some quack tricks, right?"

At this time, King Xiangyang's face turned red and green, stood up resentfully and said:

"Teacher, I don't feel well today, so don't bother me, please discipline your son-in-law well!"

"In case you don't know what to do in the future and lose your life, let's say goodbye!"

After speaking, he didn't look at those so-called masters, and got up and left angrily.

After the grand master's mansion calmed down, Grand Master Pang looked at Cao Bin and shook his head, "Juncai, tell me, what is your purpose for doing this?"

Cao Bin thought for a while and persuaded:

"Grand Master, the King of Xiangyang is bad and stupid, why should we hang out with him?"

"I think he has a lot of ambitions, so we must not be dragged down by him."

Grand Master Pang pondered for a long time before he said: "Do you think it is possible for him... to ascend to the high position?"

Hearing this, Cao Bin shook his head without any hesitation and said:

"Impossible. It would be too ridiculous for such a person to be crowned emperor."

"Teacher, you must not be confused."

"Besides, even if he ascends to the throne, what benefits can we get?"

"You are already a grand master, an extremely personable minister, and your sister is the master of the harem."

"Do you still want to cover the sky with one hand?"

Grand Master Pang was stunned for a moment, put down the tea bowl, shook his head and smiled wryly:

"It's too late for you to say that."

"No, it's not too late, it's just nonsense."

"Then Zhao Jue has the old man's handle in his hands. If the old man wants to be safe, there is only one way to go."

After speaking, he hesitated for a moment, and said to himself:

"Based on the power in the old man's hands and the power of King Xiangyang, he is still very likely to ascend to the throne."

"The sage has no son, and the old man has no other candidates..."

Hearing this, Cao Bin became anxious immediately:

"The Grand Master has something in his hands, can you get it out?"

This is the rhythm of death. King Xiangyang is arrogant and domineering. I am afraid that his conspiracy will be exposed before the emperor dies.

At that time, it will be a deadly situation, Grand Master Pang shook his head helplessly and said:

"Difficult! Very difficult! Don't worry about it, the old man thinks about it again."

"If the empress can conceive a dragon species, it's easy to say."

"If not, the old man can only take risks..."

He didn't seem to want to say much, so he changed the subject directly:

"Doesn't Juncai want to go to the Foreign Affairs Institute? The official document will be issued in two days. You should prepare."

Hearing this news, Cao Bin didn't feel happy at all. The matter of King Xiangyang made him feel uncomfortable.

This is too deceitful, Cao Bin feels very helpless, it seems that it is not easy to be safe and stable.

Not to mention the consequences of being implicated in the crime of treason.

Without Grand Master Pang's protection, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to go very far. He doesn't think he has any political wisdom...

He returned to Hou Mansion sullenly.

Du Shiniang, Li Shishi and Zhang Zhenniang are sitting together to share the property.

Li Yun was sitting on the side, introducing the details of these industries to Zhang Zhenniang one by one.

Seeing Cao Bin come back, Zhang Zhenniang immediately stood up nervously: "Uncle, I..."

Cao Bin waved his hands and said:

"It doesn't matter, this is what I ordered. Anyone who enters the Marquis' Mansion will have a property."

"In case there are accidents in the future, your evening scene will be bleak."

Li Yun pulled Zhang Zhenniang to sit down and said with a smile:

"Master Hou has always attached great importance to practical affairs. This is a rule set by him. You can choose with peace of mind."

"There are so many money-making transactions that even I am envious."

Du Shiniang covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Since Aunt Yun is envious, why don't you marry into the mansion too? Surely Cao Yun won't dislike her."

Li Yun pouted and said: "You girl, you know how to make fun of people. How old am I, and you still make fun of me. Let's see if I don't find a chance to deal with you."

Du Shiniang fiddled with a few cards in her hand, glanced at Zhang Zhenniang and said:

"Perhaps Cao Yun likes you, and you still have this charm. I was kind enough to point out a way to make money for Aunt Yun. Who would have thought that you would treat your kindness like a donkey's liver and lungs, so I dare not talk too much anymore."

Li Shishi gently tapped her lips and said: "Okay, Ten Niang, you are the only one with sharp teeth."

Zhang Zhenniang felt relieved when she saw that there was nothing unusual about the people present, as if she was used to it.

Ben's chest, which was still somewhat empty, seemed to be filled with caramel, and it became heavy and solid.

At this moment, the servant girl came to report suddenly, and Yang Zhi and Lin Chong came to ask for an audience.

Hearing this, Zhang Zhenniang was like a frightened rabbit, she chose a property at random, and hurriedly hid.

Cao Bin laughed a few times, but didn't care, and said, "Let them wait in the small hall."

The appointments of Yang Zhi and Lin Chong have already come down, Yang Zhi has also got a sixth-rank captain, and Lin Chong is the deputy lieutenant of Zhaowu.

Even though Cao Bin didn't think much of Wusanguan, but to them, a mid-to-high-ranking military officer could be the military commander of any state after leaving Beijing.

This visit is nothing more than a lesbian relationship, a show of loyalty...

The Foreign Affairs Office is newly established in this dynasty.

It is the product of the merger of foreign institutions such as Honglu Temple, the Privy Council Chamber, and the Rites of the Ministry of Rites. It is in charge of foreign affairs.

There is one judge and three court officials, divided into twelve subordinates, each with a prime minister and a master.

Cao Bin's position is Tongzhi Yuanshi, and he is the assistant officer of the court, but his rank is much lower.

The main job of the Foreign Affairs Office is to greet and send off, receive envoys from various countries, and send envoys to various countries. Small matters are handled by the people below, and major matters are directly reported.

Cao Bin originally thought that this was the most suitable job for him.

But when he arrived at Yamen, he was stunned.

"Uncle Zhongjing, it's been a long time!"

Li Tang had a cold smile in his eyes.

At this moment, Cao Bin has the urge to go back and divorce his old father-in-law.

Isn't this tricking yourself?

Two days ago, Grand Master Pang also told himself that Li Tang, the transshipment envoy between the two Zhejiang provinces, often sent small officials to watch the details of the states and counties.

Local officials and people are often blamed, and strict laws are imposed on mistakes.

It aroused public grievances, and officials from the two Zhejiang provinces competed to impeach him, which led to his dismissal by the court.

Originally, Cao Bin was secretly happy about this incident.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Li Tang became his immediate boss.

I have a vengeance with him for killing my son, and now that he is under his command, why doesn't he take the opportunity to take revenge?

"It will be the Empress Dowager's [-]th birthday soon, and envoys from various countries have already entered Beijing."

"The envoys of the Liao Kingdom are the most important thing. This time, Uncle Zhong Jing will be in charge of receiving them."

The other two fellow magistrates breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the words, and at the same time cast sympathetic looks at Cao Bin.

In the past, those who received the envoys from the Liao Kingdom were under the greatest pressure. If they accidentally caused the two countries to fight against each other, it would be a heinous crime.

But the envoy from the Liao Kingdom who came this time was even more irritable and used to being picky. He had taken the opportunity to beat up many waiters and even smashed houses.

The Academy of Foreign Affairs could neither beat him nor allow him to do so, which caused a lot of headaches.

After dividing the tasks, Li Tang stared at Cao Bin, with a sense of revenge, and said sadly:

"Uncle Zhongjing must be very careful. If the two countries are turned against each other, it will be a sin that cannot be redeemed by death."

"But I can't let the majesty of the Great Song Dynasty fall, otherwise the officials and the court will question me."

After speaking, he didn't even give Cao Bin a chance to shirk, and turned around and left.

In his expectation, Cao Bin would never be able to please him this time, and he might even be dismissed from his post.

Seeing the evasive expressions of the other two fellow prefects, Cao Bin laughed:

"You two don't have to worry about me, the worst case is Cao's resignation, it's just that this is a well-known cruel official."

"Be careful, you two, don't be caught by him..."

As he said that, he called Libin Cheng, intending to ask about the specific situation first.

The envoys from the Liao Kingdom were General Yeluyixian and Jiedu envoy Liu Liufu.

During the war between Song and Xia two years ago, they were the ones who went to Song Dynasty to threaten Song Dynasty, which doubled its old currency.

Although this amount of money is nothing to Da Song, the humiliation is certain.

Originally, the two countries have been at peace for several years, so I don't know what they are going to do.

Logically speaking, they shouldn't have troubled Da Song at this time.

Li Guancheng looked at Cao Bin and said:

"Lord Cao, this special envoy of the Liao Kingdom is too difficult to serve, what shall we do?"

"If there is a dispute between the two countries because of improper reception, we will definitely be punished."

Cao Bin glanced at him and said, "Is it like this before?"
