Chapter 561 Petition for Nomination

As soon as he heard Wang Lixin's compromise and expressed his willingness to join Shi Bin, Cheng Yuanfeng rushed to Shi Bin's mansion. The reason why Cheng Yuanfeng came over so quickly was not only because he was excited, but also because he wanted to know what tricks Shi Bin used to convince Wang Lixin. Because his joint performance did not make this move.

Still immersed in the joy of Wang Lixin's refuge and not extricating himself, Shi Bin heard Xu Feng's announcement: Cheng Yuanfeng is visiting.

Obviously, Cheng Yuanfeng came here for Wang Lixin, but he didn't expect him to be so well-informed, and he was so interested in Wang Lixin's dedication to himself, Shi Bin was naturally very happy in his heart, and he already had the idea of pulling Cheng Yuanfeng as his descendant.

It's just that these are all later words, Shi Bin knows that now he has to see what Cheng Yuanfeng wants to say this time before thinking about anything else.

It is natural to show enough respect for subordinates who are both competent and loyal. This time, Shi Bin didn't greet him at all, but greeted him barefoot, and came simply.

Seeing this, Cheng Yuanfeng, who was rich in five cars, immediately knew Shi Bin's intentions, although his face was still just smiling, he was very grateful in his heart, and said: "Lord Shi treats me so well, it really makes the lower officials ashamed." Cheng swears here, as long as the adults are dedicated to the people, I will only look forward to the adults. ”

Shi Bin is the least trustworthy in oaths, for a gentleman, an oath is the best shackle, but for a villain, an oath may not be as important as a tael of silver.

So Shi Bin immediately laughed and said, "Why is Lord Cheng doing this? To be honest with adults, Shi doesn't believe in empty words, villains only believe in meticulous gentlemen. But I believe that the Lord is a meticulous gentleman, and that is enough. ”

These words made Cheng Yuanfeng not very happy, but he was also very relieved. Because he believes that the person he serves must be calm and sober, and cannot be played around by a vow. And Shi Bin is like this, so he is naturally relieved.

"Thank you Lord Shi for your trust, with the wisdom of the adult, I must have expected why the lower official came." Cheng Yuanfeng said with a smile.

"Brother Yuanfeng, please don't be so polite. Where can Shi Bin talk about wisdom as a rough man? If you hadn't tried to help me, I would have thought you were trying to kill me. Shi Bin changed his affectionate name and said with a smile, "I did guess one or two, are you here because of Wang Lixin's refuge?" ”

I was very happy that Shi Bin could call himself so affectionately, and Cheng Yuanfeng immediately said very sincerely: "My lord is wise, the lower officials are indeed here for this." And I really want to know what method the adults used to make Wang Lixin's brainless work for you, and did not use the slightly despicable method of the lower officials. ”

Of course, Cheng Yuanfeng couldn't make him feel despicable, Shi Bin immediately appeased the kind words, told him the specific content of the idea, and told him the person who made the idea.

I didn't expect Shi Bin's wife to be a female Zhuge as rumored in the market, and at the same time she was bold enough to dare to come up with such an idea. As a great Song courtier, although Cheng Yuanfeng doesn't like this, he doesn't object to it, after all, what Song Ting did was indeed too bad, and he deserved to be scolded a few times.

"Well, it's not honorable for me, hehe. It's also a bad reputation, but you're bad for Wang Lixin, me

The bad ones are just the ones of the Great Song Dynasty. Shi Bin laughed.

Cheng Yuanfeng smiled awkwardly and nodded helplessly. This made him feel a little ashamed that the Great Song that he was loyal to was so rotten. A little agitation can respond to all calls, so that the people will spare no effort to scold the court, and then cause so much pressure on Wang Lixin.

"Lord Shi, aren't you angry when you do this?"

"Lord Wang was angry, and he was furious. But in order to appease the anger of the people, he had to compromise, and of course, he also made some demands with me. Seeing that Cheng Yuanfeng's face immediately became gloomy when he heard Wang Lixin's request, Shi Bin immediately smiled and said: "Don't get me wrong, Lord Wang's conditions are the same as yours, as long as I don't rebel against the Great Song Dynasty, he is willing to help me with all his might." Naturally, things are much simpler and less troublesome. ”

"It's good, I thought he was asking too much."

"No, Brother Yuanfeng, Wang Lixin is still a person who knows how to advance and retreat." Shi Bin smiled, "He won't and won't dare to put forward conditions." After all, he can't break the jar yet. ”

"It's a little embarrassing for Lord Shi to always call me Brother Yuanfeng, and today I'll offend and call Lord Shi brother, how about it?" Cheng Yuanfeng asked with some concern.

"I can't ask for it!" Shi Bin said with a smile.

"Brother Shi, there is a question in the middle, I don't know if you have considered it..."

"Brother Yuanfeng, please say, if I am not careful enough in my thinking, I will probably miss some important things. I have often made this mistake in the past, and it is still difficult to change the mistake of carelessness. ”

"Please don't think I'm shady, what I want to say is, did you ask Wang Lixin to submit a name?" Cheng Yuanfeng said obviously worriedly.

Vote for a name? I really haven't thought about it. In Shi Bin's view, handing over the 'name letter' is a matter only for bandits, how can officials do it? The last time Cheng Yuanfeng said that he had handed over the name, he thought it was a joke, although Cheng Yuanfeng really handed it over.

"Brother Yuanfeng means that Wang Lixin also submits a letter of submission?" Shi Bin asked with some confusion.

"Exactly." Cheng Yuanfeng said with certainty, "Maybe my brother thinks that it is a bandit's job to trade names, but in fact, you must do this to join any group." Because the heart is separated from the belly, we need to prevent the unfaithful and unrighteous from rebelling at any time. Politics is actually darker than the green forest, and adults have to guard against it. ”

Although I feel a little awkward to do this, I must admit that Cheng Yuanfeng is right, and he has to ask Wang Lixin, who is not a strong supporter, to submit a petition, otherwise he may be stabbed by him at any time.

"Brother Yuanfeng is reasonable, then what do you think is more appropriate for Wang Lixin to submit a letter of nomination?" Shi Bin asked.

"Brother Shi, I haven't thought about this yet. But I think we can invite Wang Lixin to get together and see what he is willing to do. If it feels appropriate, talk about it immediately, and if you feel that he is not sincere enough, it is better to let him go back and remind him to think again. That way it won't be too embarrassing. Cheng Yuanfeng said.

This is a good idea, Shi Bin immediately agreed. This foodie invited Wang Lixin and Cheng Yuanfeng to eat a lot, and the time was agreed to be three days later.

Soon Wang

Fong's received this invitation and knew that he had to go, and it was also an opportunity for Shi Bin to show his loyalty. But I don't want to go, because if he can't show anything to prove his loyalty, then he Wang Lixin is a villain, and if he takes it out, he will disobey the court and be a villain.

Although it was entangled, the time still passed minute by minute, and soon it was the third day, and the time for the banquet arrived.

When he arrived at Shifu, he happened to bump into Cheng Yuanfeng at the door, which made Wang Li's confidence suddenly burst into flames, and he wanted to scold this despicable villain on the spot. It's just that for the sake of the overall situation, Wang Lixin could only endure it, but there was still fire in his eyes. And Cheng Yuanfeng is always vigilant, ready to seek refuge from Shi Bin at any time.

Hearing that Cheng Yuanfeng and Wang Lixin bumped into each other at the door, in order to prevent problems from turning the dinner into a fight, Shi Bin greeted each other barefoot again.

Still at the gate of the inner courtyard, Shi Bin shouted loudly: "Lord Wang, Lord Cheng is good, hurry up, hurry up, don't stand at the door, come in!" ”

As soon as this voice came, Wang Lixin could only return to normal, and Cheng Yuanfeng was also relieved.

After walking in front of the two, Shi Bin said with a smile: "Shi Mou from different places can come to eat at the same time, and the two of you are really fateful." ”

Wang Lixin said coldly: "It's quite fateful." ”

Cheng Yuanfeng said with a smile: "It's really fateful." ”

didn't want to be seen this strange scene, Shi Bin led the two directly into the restaurant.

Shredded pork in Beijing sauce, braised pork ribs, kung pao chicken, sour plum soup, tiger skin and phoenix feet, fish head tofu, xiaolongbao, sauced beef, braised cabbage, a dazzling variety of dishes made Wang Lixin no longer angry, so that Cheng Yuanfeng no longer worried.

"People say that Lord Shi is a gourmet, Cheng didn't believe it originally, but now he believes it. What do you say, Lord Wang? Cheng Yuanfeng, who looked greedy, said.

"That's true." Wang Lixin replied calmly.

"The three of us have never eaten together before, so it's rare to have this opportunity, so let's have a good meal first and then talk about anything else." Shi Bin said with a smile, "Let's govern Shaanxi with one heart and one mind, and mutual communication is essential." And Shi couldn't think of any good way, so he had to be cliché and communicate while eating at the dinner table. ”

"Where is such a delicacy still cliché? Lord Shi is too modest. Cheng Yuanfeng said with a smile, "My lord, these dishes are delicious and not wasted, absolutely very good." ”

"In that case, let's eat first and satisfy our appetites, after all, if our stomach is still empty, I'm afraid we won't have the heart to discuss the problem."

Cheng Yuanfeng has long been a gluttonous cat, and Wang Lixin can't look at the food without being moved, so he promised to talk about it when he was full of wine and food.

Because the dishes were so delicious, Shi Bin, Cheng Yuanfeng, and Wang Lixin were reincarnated like starving ghosts, and they quickly ate most of the dishes on the table. It's just that in the end, the stomach capacity reached the limit, and the requisition for dishes had to be terminated.

Shi Bin gave Cheng Yuanfeng a look and asked him to speak first. Cheng Yuanfeng understood and said, "Lord Wang, you are a smart person, I believe you know why Lord Shi invited you to come today." ”

"Of course, the adults along the river will not just invite me to dinner, there must be something very important

I want to talk about it, did I promise to fully support Lord Shi a few days ago? ”

"Lord Wang is really smart and straightforward, and Lord Shi invited you and me to the banquet for this reason. Cheng first apologized to Lord Wang, I used a lot of means to make you very unhappy, I hope you don't care. And when I just took refuge with Lord Shi, I handed in a letter of surrender, hehe..." Cheng Yuanfeng said with a smile.

As soon as he heard this, Wang Li confidently immediately greeted Cheng Yuanfeng's eighteenth generation ancestors, and it turned out that Cheng Yuanfeng regarded himself as a voter. But it's useless to lose his temper, who told him not to take refuge early? Now I can't complain about being used by others.

"Cheng Yuanfeng, do you mean that I also want to submit a letter of submission?" Wang Lixin asked coldly, "You asked Lord Shi to ask me to submit a name?" ”

"Lord Wang, this is not called pandering, this is just a guarantee. Although you Wang Lixin is a righteous gentleman, you don't seem to appreciate Lord Shi's affection, so you have no choice but to do so. With all due respect, if it were Cheng, I'm afraid you would have been exiled to the Yunnan border by now. You should be grateful for Lord Shi's magnanimity. Cheng Yuanfeng said unceremoniously.

Without doubting the authenticity of Cheng Yuanfeng's words, Wang Lixin felt as if he had no choice but to ask helplessly: "May I ask what kind of petition Lord Shi wants me to submit?" Wang did his best. ”

"Okay. I'd like to thank you in advance, Mr. Wang. Shi Bin smiled, "We have been working well together before, but you have never been very supportive of me, so I hope you will fully support." ”

"May I ask Lord Shi, what do you mean by full support?" Wang Lixin asked with a clear pretense of confusion.

"Lord Wang, you are an understanding person, everyone understands people, why do you pretend to be stupid?" Cheng Yuanfeng said with a smile, "I plan to let Lord Shi see all the official documents that are going to be sent to Lin'an first, and it will be up to Lord Shi to decide whether to send them over or not." ”

Cheng Yuanfeng's support method made Wang Lixin dizzy, if he did it himself, wouldn't Shaanxi be the world of Shi Bin alone, and in fact, he would have already escaped the control of the imperial court? Therefore, he didn't think about it at all, and immediately shook his head again and again in opposition.

At this time, Shi Bin spoke: "Master Cheng, such a request is a bit excessive. Lord Wang still pays more attention to the Zhao family's world than the people of Limin, we don't have to force it, this is not appropriate. Otherwise, let Lord Wang be ready to seconded my decision at any time. ”

Seconded Shi Bin's decision? This request is acceptable to Wang Lixin, although it is actually almost like a marionette, but at least he can communicate directly with Lin'an and express his personal opinions, which is not so pitiful.

Since there was no choice, Wang Lixin finally agreed to seconded Shi Bin's resolution at any time and promised that he would never violate it. But the condition is that Shi Bin does not rebel against the Great Song Dynasty. Shi Bin didn't bother to care about Song Ting, as long as Song Ting didn't yin him, he would still be Song Chen, so he happily agreed to Wang Lixin's condition.

In this way, a banquet to obtain Wang Lixin's name certificate ended in a 'peaceful' atmosphere...

And the next day, Wang Lixin seconded Shi Bin and asked the Song court to allocate 200,000 stone of grain to support Hedong and Shaanxi. And said that if the 200,000 stone grain was less than a day, he would urge it every day.
