Cao Bin, the privy envoy of the Great Song Dynasty, won a great victory in Dali, forced the new king of Dali to bow down and proclaim his vassals, and plundered the century-old savings of Dali's treasury.

After three hundred carts were escorted full of money into Bianjing City, the entire Bianjing City was in a sensation.

People rushed to the royal streets to see the vast amount of wealth.

The gold and silver jewels were piled up in piles and shimmered with brilliance.

All kinds of rare treasures make people dizzying.

One of the most precious is a piece of jade that is as tall as a wall.

The smooth and translucent jade can reflect the human figure.

And when every figure appeared on it, it was as if it had become a Buddha, and it was full of light.

Zhao Guangyi led the ministers, stood on the Donghua Gate, and saw the endless cart loaded with wealth, and his breath was a little short.

The ministers looked at the wealth that stretched for nearly three miles, and they were speechless in shock.

Cao Lin led his personal soldiers to escort Yubi to Donghua Gate, knelt on one knee, and shouted loudly: "Minister Cao Bin, fortunately live up to the mission and crusade against Dali Buchen." Now that the success is still in the dynasty, I will offer a treasure to His Majesty. ”

"Good good ......"

Zhao Guangyi shouted hello three times in a row.

He hurriedly waved his hand.

Wang Jien hurriedly took out the holy decree that had been drawn up long ago, and began to add officials to the meritorious soldiers.

Zhao Guangyi is also a rare generosity, under his strategy of emphasizing literature and suppressing martial arts, he still enshrined a marquis, two earls, and countless generals at all levels.

In addition, the biggest recipient is Cao Bin.

Cao Bin is already a supreme minister, so his official title can no longer be sealed.

It is impossible for Zhao Guangyi to enshrine a king with a different surname.

Therefore, the edict against Cao Bin basically fell on his son's head.

Cao Bin's eldest son was made a marquis, and his second and third sons were made earls.

In other words, in the current Cao Mansion, there are four separate title inheritances.

The Cao family also became the most expensive in Bianjing.

The generals on the city wall, looking at Zhao Guangyi's jealousy of Cao Bin's edict, fell out.

After the edict passed Cao Bin.

Hubu Shangshu and Li Xin, the governor of the government, began to count the seized property and put it into storage.

Zhao Guangyi personally helped Cao Bin remove his armor.

Cao Bin's limelight is unmatched for a while.

Compared with Cao Bin's limelight, Huyanzan's return to Beijing is a little poorer.

When Hu Yanzan led the forbidden army back to Bianjing, the forbidden army returned to their respective camps.

When he arrived at the gate of the city, he was left with himself and the generals of the house.

The person in charge of greeting him was the second prince and the eunuch Chen Lin.

After Chen Lin announced the reward for Hu Yanzan, Hu Yanzan returned home.

And at this moment.

Cao Bin was in the Daqing Palace, accompanying Zhao Guangyi to enjoy singing and dancing while indulging in alcohol.

Cao Bin and Hu Yanzan successively led the forbidden army back to the camp, and the forbidden army outside the capital skyrocketed to 350,000 horses.

Zhao Guangyi immediately asked Gao Huaide and Shi Shouxin to gather 100,000 forbidden troops and go north to exterminate the two families.

Due to the stimulation of Zhao Guangyi's generous gift to Cao Bin, the two of them were like chicken blood.

After ordering all the soldiers and horses, he started without saying a word.

……

In Cao's mansion, Cao Bin drank unconscious in the palace last night and was specially carried back.

In addition to the people coming back, Zhao Guangyi also gave Cao Bin a lot of palace maids.

Cao Bin was hangover and sober, rubbed his head and sat up, and was just about to ask someone to take a sip of water when he saw his wife sitting on the edge of the bed with a nervous face.

"What's wrong? How are you frizzy. ”

Mrs. Cao had a bitter face and asked eagerly: "Master, tell me, do you want to send someone to Daizhou to bring Lin'er back?" ”

Cao Bin lifted the quilt, revealing a white obscene dress, he sat up, frowned, and said, "What are you doing when you take Lin'er back?" ”

Mrs. Cao glared at Cao Bin complainingly, and scolded: "You don't care about the situation of your daughter and son-in-law at all. Just last night, His Majesty sent Gao Huaide and Shi Shouxin to lead 100,000 forbidden troops to the north to exterminate the Yang family.

The first to bear the brunt must be the Daizhou where her daughter is located. Once Daizhou goes to war, her daughter will be in danger, and she is still pregnant.

If there's anything bumping into it, it's a big deal. ”

Although Cao Bin has been in Dali recently, Yang Qi's actions in Daizhou have not been hidden from his ears and eyes.

What kind of character Zhao Guangyi is, Cao Bin also knows it.

With what Yang Qi did in Daizhou, it was inevitable that he would be attacked by Zhao Guangyi.

Cao Bin just didn't expect Zhao Guangyi to send so quickly.

Thinking about Zhao Guangyi inviting him to a banquet last night, he kept pouring wine to him, and took advantage of his drunkenness to take the opportunity to send troops, obviously not wanting him to get involved in this matter.

In fact, as far as this matter is concerned, Cao Bin has a plan in his heart.

He first cooperated with Yang Qi for the sake of Dali.

Now Dali has been secretly controlled by their Cao family.

The cooperation between Cao Bin and Yang Qi is over.

Although the two of them are Weng sons-in-law, all the previous cooperation is for the sake of interests.

Now Cao Bin holds the Dali Kingdom, and all he thinks about is how to steal the dragon and turn the phoenix into the master of the Dali Kingdom.

Cao Bin didn't really care about the life or death of the Yang family.

So far, Yang Qi has caused trouble, and Cao Bin has no way to help him.

Everyone also took what they needed and got their due benefits.

Therefore, Cao Bin has already decided on the affairs of the Yang family, and he will not interfere from beginning to end.

As for the daughter in the Yang family, she is still pregnant with a child in her belly.

Although Cao Bin cared, he did not reach the point of catching up with the whole family.

Cao Bin is not only a father, but also the head of the Cao family.

In front of the Cao family, it is completely okay to sacrifice a girl.

Cao Bin, who already had an idea.

After hearing Mrs. Cao's anxious words, she sighed: "The Yang family's affairs, our Cao family can't interfere. What the Yang family is doing now, to put it mildly, is a plot to do wrong. At best, it's rebellion.

This kind of thing, if our Cao family gets involved, it is very likely that it will be destroyed with the Yang family. ”

Mrs. Cao glared and shouted, "Then you can't ignore the girl, right?" It was a piece of flesh that fell from the concubine's body. ”

Cao Bin waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry about Lin'er's safety. Lin'er is in the Yang family, and the Yang family will carefully protect Lin'er. After a while, the old man wrote a letter in his hand, and asked people to give it to Gao Huaide and Shi Shouxin, so that they could see the old man's face and let Lin'er go.

I believe that with the old man and their years of hypocrisy, they will not even give the old man this little face. ”

When Mrs. Cao heard this, she immediately pulled Cao Bin to write a letter.

Cao Bin couldn't resist Mrs. Cao, so he went to the study to write a letter and sent someone to send it to Gao Huaide and Shi Shouxin quickly.

Sent Mrs. Cao away.

Cao Bin began to take the housekeeper and cut down many branches attached to the Cao Mansion in a drastic manner.

Outside the world, every name is said that the Cao family is pruning branches.

The Cao family received the emperor's favor, so they should be grateful to Dade.

It is necessary to cut off some of the good and bad black sheep in the house, and these black sheep must not be allowed to stay in the Cao Mansion and rely on the prestige of the Cao Mansion to do evil.

After Cao Bin's drastic pruning.

The people of the Cao family, as well as the branches attached to the Cao family, were accounted for by a full seventy percent.

The entire Cao Mansion, after Cao Bin pruned, became deserted.

And Cao Bin's practice was passed on to the palace.

Zhao Guangyi obviously recognized his approach.

A plaque of loyalty and herom was specially written and given to Cao Bin.

Since Gao Huaide and Shi Shouxin sent the army to Daizhou.

Zhao Guangyi's mood is obviously a lot better.

plus the support of Cao Bin's property seized from Dali.

Zhao Guangyi, whose waist was stiff, issued three orders one after another.

First, the expansion of the army.

On the basis of the original forbidden army, the army was expanded by 400,000.

At once, the number of forbidden troops was expanded to 800,000.

Second, build palaces.

The imperial palace of the Great Song Dynasty is still the palace of the original Zhou period.

After Zhao Kuangyin ascended the throne, he has always been a streamlined army and has never expanded the palace.

So the palace city of the Great Song Dynasty looks very small and old.

It seems expected that the ministers would speak out against his order to build a palace.

Zhao Guangyi directly threw out the third one.

Wage increases.

He gave all the Beijing officials a collective salary increase.

All of a sudden, the mouths of the ministers were blocked.

If three ordinances are executed at the same time.

Zhao Guangyi suddenly became a little complacent.

He felt that since he became emperor, he had never felt so comfortable as recently.

Inside the Daqing Palace.

Zhao Guangyi was wearing a bright yellow profane robe, stepping barefoot on a thick blanket, blindfolded, chasing the singers singing and dancing in the hall.

Speaking of which.

Zhao Guangyi was also an absurd emperor.

is obviously lustful and gloomy, but he pretends to be a lascivious and upright gentleman on the outside.

Why?

Because Zhao Guangyi has always maintained a diligent appearance on the bright side.

Secretly, it's a different story.

Someone once made a recital, saying that there were too many beauties in Zhao Guangyi's harem, and asked him to stop harming beauties.

At that time, he directly took this piece to the main hall and explained it to the ministers.

said that his palace was small and broken, and there were less than 300 palace ladies and concubines inside.

The bigwigs who know the inside story sniff at this.

People who don't know the inside story just believe it.

Because of this, there was a joke in the history books.

Secretary Shi said that after Song Zhenzong ascended the throne, he felt that there were too many elderly concubines in the harem, so he took the initiative and released a batch.

Up to a thousand.

This matter has also been recorded in the annals of history.

Zhao Guangyi never thought that his own lies would be exposed by his son in the end, and he would be slapped in the face.

In short, all kinds of signs show that Zhao Guangyi is actually an absurd emperor who is good at disguising.

This absurd emperor is absurd at the moment.

He ordered the singers to put on open crotch pants.

Let him scratch blindfolded, and when he catches it, he will snap in the middle.

cough cough cough ......

Just when Zhao Guangyi was complacent.

Chen Lin hurriedly entered the Daqing Hall with a panicked expression.

When Chen Lin leaned over, the singers subconsciously retreated.

Zhao Guangyi hugged Chen Lin with a full embrace, and pinched Chen Lin's chest with his big hand.

However, soon Zhao Guangyi reined in the precipice.

Because he smelled Chen Lin's unique eunuch smell.

Zhao Guangyi took off the long cloth that blindfolded him, and asked with a dark face, "Chen Lin, do you dare to spoil my interest?" If you don't give me a satisfactory answer, I must take off your dog's head. ”

Chen Lin lay on the ground in fear, and said in a trembling deep voice: "Your Majesty, Gusu is in a hurry." ”

"Speak!"

"The Fu family is reversed!"

Zhao Guangyi's eyes widened and he said in disbelief: "What? ”

Chen Lin repeated in a panic, "Fu family, it's the other way around." ”

Zhao Guangyi stepped back three steps, and asked tremblingly, "What is the specific situation?" ”

Chen Linyu reported: "The Fu family, as well as those generals attached to the Fu family, are secretly linked together. Under the leadership of the second master of the Fu family, he waved 200,000 troops, left Yancheng, passed through Gusu all the way, and was rushing towards Jiangning Mansion. ”

"Two hundred thousand? So many soldiers from where he came? ”

"According to the information detected by his subordinates, the second master of the Fu family seems to be mixed up with those remnants of Wu Yue. In addition to the original 60,000 soldiers and horses of the Fu family, Wu Yue's remnants helped him gather 140,000 exile troops. ”

Zhao Guangyi immediately ordered, "You can recruit peace affairs, participate in political affairs, and privy envoys to enter the Hajj." ”

That night, Zhao Guangyi invited Zhao Pu, Li Xin, Cao Bin and others to discuss the matter.

I have to say that the Great Song Dynasty court is really a bit of a prisoner of Tai Sui this year.

In just five months, there were Wang Xiaobo's rebellion, Dali's conspiracy, Yang Qi's conspiracy, and the Fu family's rebellion.

One could almost say that there were wars.

Zhao Guangyi stood in front of the dragon chair and roared: "The Fu family has rebelled, waving 200,000 troops, and approaching Jiangning Mansion, what do you say?" ”

Cao Bin immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "The minister is willing to command 150,000 troops and horses to exterminate the Fu family's traitors." ”

"Good!"

Zhao Guangyi was about to agree.

Zhao Pu spoke at this time, "The old minister thinks it's inappropriate. ”

A fierce light flashed in Zhao Guangyi's eyes, and he glared at Zhao Pu, "Zhao Aiqing thinks something is wrong?" ”

Zhao Pu didn't seem to see Zhao Guangyi's calm eyes, he said indifferently: "The Fu family is the first one of my Great Song Jiangmen. The rebellion of the Fu family cannot be underestimated. And Cao's secret envoy has just returned from a big battle. Going out again, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. ”

Zhao Pu's words were ambiguous.

But the people here are all smart people, and they immediately understood the meaning of Zhao Pu's words.

There are two important points in Zhao Pu's words.

One is the first one in the Great Song Dynasty.

One is Cao Lin.

He was vaguely reminding Zhao Guangyi to guard against Cao Bin.

Cao Bin, who has the merit of destroying the country in Dali, has no seal.

Once Cao Bin is allowed to attack again, he will destroy the Fu family.

Then with Cao Bin's merits, he can only be crowned king.

The first family of the Great Song Dynasty Jiangmen just rebelled, could it be that another one should be cultivated?

Can't bother enough?

Cao Bin didn't seem to hear Zhao Pu's words, and still asked for battle.

Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Pu Junchen have been in power for many years, so they naturally understood the meaning of Zhao Pu's words.

I have to say that as soon as Zhao Pu's words came out, Zhao Guangyi really listened to them.
