Jiang Banxia's expression was strange, and she looked at Jiao Da without saying anything.

"Isn't it shocking?" Jiao Da showed a gossipy smile: "However, back then, this matter was not so unacceptable. ”

Who Pang Zhong is, the rookies in the DPRK and China may not know, but those old guys can't forget it.

He was a jinshi in the Shunde period, and later entered the cabinet as a servant of the ministry, becoming the youngest cabinet member, when he was only twenty years old, and envied countless young people

At the beginning of the cabinet, Pang Zhong was just an ordinary cabinet member, and it was difficult to continue to climb up, but Pang Zhong was not ordinary smart, and he found that there were constant contradictions within the cabinet, so he took the opportunity to show loyalty to Emperor Shunde, kicked off the stumbling block, and climbed to the highest position.

Pang Zhong was only twenty-three years old that year, and the young Shoufu was full of spirit, standing on top of the gloomy court and pointing out tens of thousands of miles, that kind of wanton and confident appearance was deeply rooted in the hearts of everyone.

Pang Zhong's means of sitting on the first assistant are not very bright, but he really got what he wanted, and when he came to power, in order to hold real power, put his political ambitions into practice, so he eliminated dissidents, appointed cronies, and installed him all the way from the ministry to the cabinet, his people were everywhere, and the voice of praising him could be heard everywhere.

He stepped on those old ministers and couldn't turn over, the more powerful he was, the more people below hated him, after the funeral of Emperor Shunde, everything changed, the parties in the court and China were tilted, and the courtiers of Emperor Shunde hated Pang Zhong who colluded with the eunuchs, and took advantage of the blank period when the new emperor ascended the throne, they secretly gathered to discuss an amazing countermeasure.

A huge conspiracy for power has emerged.

Emperor Qingwen, who had just ascended the throne, had a headache for his father's close ministers, especially Pang Zhong, who was too young and too smart, so that the old ministers of the first emperor period presented their names to Emperor Qingwen on behalf of Gong Sui, and they single-handedly planned the case of Pang Zhong's treason in the second year of Qingwen, which completely solved the big trouble in Emperor Qingwen's heart.

He could block a pile of dirt, but he couldn't escape when a mountain pressed him down.

The young Shoufu Pang Zhong was sent to the guillotine, his family was arrested, the arrested was arrested, his wife was separated, and he fell off the altar overnight.

"That year, Kyoto was full of blood, and the old people said that people would be squeezed to death in the palace of Hades." Jiao Da sighed: "Now that I think about it, did Pang Zhong really collaborate with the enemy and commit treason? During the Shunde years, when Pang Zhong served as the first assistant, although the world was not peaceful, the people lived much better than now, and now I think back on it like a dream. ”

Jiang Banxia smiled and said nothing, from the moment he entered the center of political power, everyone had to be prepared for a bad death, Pang Zhong must have expected such an ending.

"He's such a brilliant character." Jiao Da sighed with emotion: "This person not only has the means to stir up the situation, but also looks very handsome, it is rumored in the palace that the eldest princess fell in love with him at first sight, but at that time, Pang Zhong had already married a wife and had two children, and the eldest princess could only bury this relationship in her heart because of her face... Later, it was the second year of Qingwen..."

"He's dead." Jiang Banxia picked up the ending of the story for Jiao Da.

Jiao Da touched his nose and laughed embarrassedly, such a story is still a bit fake, the eldest princess is not stupid, why do you like a married man.

The two chatted casually again, and waited until the second half of the night to wait for Cao Alcohol.

In the second half of the night, the wind and snow were howling, and as soon as Cao Yu entered the door, he brought a stinging cold wind, and the cloak on his body was full of snow, and he stumbled to the ground, and soon turned into a puddle of snow.

A few little eunuchs who remained on duty hurriedly helped Cao Yu change clothes and dust, and handed tea and water.

The copper kettle on the shelf of the charcoal basin was warm with hot water, and the little eunuchs brought the copper basin to add hot water to it, and Cao Yu kicked his wet boots, and someone held his feet and put them in the footbath to burn them.

There were also two little eunuchs on the face who twisted hot towels to help Cao Alcohol wipe his face.

"Get out of the way, what's in the way." Cao Yu pulled the hot towel and spread it on his face, and the whole person was lazily lying on the chair. Old Friends Book House

"How long have you been waiting for our house?" After a while, Cao Alcohol asked.

Jiang Banxia said truthfully: "Back to godfather, it's only half a night." ”

Cao Yu snorted and laughed out of the yin and yang: "It's rare for you to be filial." ”

"Godfather!" Jiang Banxia fell to her knees with a thud, and she leaned down to confess: "Banxia is at fault." ”

Cao Yu looked at Jiang Banxia coldly, under the light of the candle flame, the shadow was infinitely magnified, and the place where she knelt happened to be a dark corner where the shadows overlapped.

"What's wrong with you?" Cao Alcohol's tone was unexpectedly calm.

"Banxia shouldn't make up her own mind... Collect the tenements. She put her head on the ground and buried her whole face.

It is a risky move to collect the mining rights, the risk of the dangerous chess is that it is easy to make enemies, and the magnates who are taken away from the mines will hate them, she is not afraid of being remembered, but Cao Alcohol is different, the struggle of the celebrant has just begun, Cao Alcohol himself is deeply trapped in it and it is difficult to separate, how can he be bad with these magnates?

"What's wrong with you?" Cao Alcohol laughed angrily: "It's also our family's fault, our family should have killed you, the wolf cub, in the first place." ”

Jiang Banxia was silent, and he could deal with Cao Yu if he didn't speak.

"Get up." Cao Yu's tone suddenly softened.

I hadn't seen Cao Alcohol for a few months, and Jiang Banxia found that he seemed to have lost weight, his cheeks were thin and slightly sunken, and he was still arrogant.

Cao Yu asked people to bring out the laba porridge he brought back from the palace, and a large casserole full of stews was stewed on the charcoal brazier, and when the porridge was opened, the aroma of cooked beans wafted out.

"This is Laba, don't say bad words, the sons of our family, now there are only the two of you left by your side, drink some porridge, say some common things, and mention other things tomorrow." Cao Yu personally served two bowls of laba porridge and put them in front of Jiang Banxia and Jiao Da.

Jiao Da looked at the porridge as if he had seen poison, his face was full of horror, and in his impression that only the dead were worthy of drinking what Lord Cao had brought in his own hands.

"Why don't you drink it? Let us feed you? Cao Yu picked up the porridge bowl in his hand and scooped a spoonful with a spoon and put it in his mouth, he squinted and put down the porridge bowl: "The taste is a little sweet." ”

Jiang Banxia immediately picked up the porridge bowl and drank it.

"What do you think?" Cao Jun asked.

"The palace dining room is naturally delicious." Jiao Da took the opportunity to slap his beard: "Thank you godfather for showing mercy to us and bringing us porridge to drink." ”

Jiang Banxia nodded.

"Drink more." Cao Yu held his hands and watched the two of them drink porridge, and it was not until the casserole revealed the bottom that he showed a satisfied expression.

"When you're done, go and rest, and you won't have a good life in Kyoto." Cao Alcohol said this to Jiang Banxia.

Hearing this, Jiang Banxia twisted his eyebrows, and listening to Cao Alcohol's tone, Kyoto seemed to be in chaos.
