In Cao Bin's impression, Cai Jing, the old guy, never goes into battle directly.

It is often a foreshadowing or side-kick for the same party.

As long as he makes conclusions, many times it is an understatement of a reminder, and the matter can be closed.

This is the first time he has spoken so brutally and directly.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "What does Taifu say?" ”

Cai Jing said unhurriedly:

"The knight should not be lightly awarded, the reward should not be abused, the speed at which Count Zhongjing was promoted to the knighthood is too fast."

"This is not good for Zhongjing Bo himself, I hope Your Majesty will love the 'young' talent!"

He deliberately accentuated the word young.

Hearing this, Cao Bin was a little speechless, and just wanted to say, you should still ravage me fiercely, I don't need your care.

If I become an old man, even if I become an emperor, what will it be like?

However, looking at the emperor's reaction, he knew that this opportunity to be promoted to the knighthood was in vain.

Cao Bin is only nineteen years old, and his knighthood and official position have been promoted too quickly, and he is likely to face the point of not being promoted in the future.

This was a big no-no for the emperor.

Another point, most of the martial artists lie on the merits of their ancestors and enjoy the remaining shade, as long as you make meritorious contributions easily, you keep being promoted, which is too jealous.

Seeing that Cao Bin's face was wrong, Master Pang hurriedly shook his head at him, stood up and said:

"What the Taifu said is very true, if Your Majesty is happy, reward some wealth!"

Cao Bin is not stupid, he doesn't know what to say now, so he pretends to be very happy to excuse himself.

In this situation, even if you get the promotion reward, the emperor will remember it, so it's better to sell it!

Seeing this, the emperor hesitated for a moment and said:

"Since Juncai refuses to accept it, then the right to record this merit, and the next time I make a meritorious service, I will be the first to reward Juncai!"

Although the emperor said this, he felt a little guilty in his heart.

Therefore, although his title was not promoted, he was promoted to a first-level official, from the secretary and young eunuch of the fifth rank to the secretary and supervisor of the fifth grade.

Compared with the title, civil officials are more practical, and it is easy to get a relatively high dispatch.

If you are released, at least you will be the governor of a state, not a temporary dispatch such as trial and power, but a prefect and prefect who are serious.

He didn't suffer a loss.

"Ladies and gentlemen, go slowly, today Your Majesty will have a banquet for the ministers in the Jixian Palace!"

Everyone was about to disperse, but they were stopped by the attendant, who said with a smile.

The emperor was in a good mood, and they were happy with it.

After the emperor and his ministers left, the people were reluctant to disperse for a long time, excitedly discussing the battle just now.

This battle started quickly and ended quickly, but it was enough to be their talking point for a year.

Some people can't help but sigh:

"It seems that Uncle Zhongjing is not so unbearable! was able to defeat the strong with the weak and defeat the Liao State, he really underestimated him! ”

also explained: "Lao Zhongjinghou is a famous general after all, and he will always leave some foundation......

In short, there are many discussions, everything is said, and Cao Bin's reputation is at least not as full of scolding as before.

Taifu Mansion.

As soon as Cai Jing returned to the house, he saw that the people were all frightened, and couldn't help asking, "What happened in the house?" ”

The housekeeper smiled bitterly and said, "Master, the young master lost his temper and beat people in the house, and two maids were beaten and vomited blood." ”

A hint of displeasure flashed in Cai Jing's eyes and said, "Go and call him over." ”

Seeing Cai Xiao's ugly face, Cai Jing said unhurriedly:

"Jealous of Cao Bin? Or do you consider yourself incompetent? ”

Cai Xiao made no secret of it, and said angrily:

"What is he Cao Bin, but he is just a gentleman, if he follows that group of martial artists, it will be fine."

"Is the official family going to train him to be the prime minister? Dad, you are also confused, why don't you continue to advise, but let the official family seal him to the official position? Cao Bin: Why is he? ”

Cai Jing glanced at him with a sneer, and said without the slightest politeness:

"Only staring at other people's shortcomings and limiting yourself to the benefits in front of you, people like you will never be able to do great things!"

Cai Xiao was almost choked to death by this sentence, and was about to refute it, when the housekeeper suddenly came to report:

"Zhu Fu, the deputy envoy of the third division, Wang Fu in the imperial history, and Cao Shitong Guan of the Privy Council military room visited."

Glancing at Cai Xiao, Cai Jing said: "My father is having some plans to discuss with them, you might as well come and listen, lest you have no knowledge!" ”

After everyone saluted, Tong Guan first said:

"In recent days, the official family has dismissed many of Pang Taishi's recitals, and it seems to be beating?"

He said with some speculation.

Cai Jing stroked his beard, nodded slightly, and said:

"You're right, the old man has already gotten detailed information."

"Since Pang Ji is suspicious of the officials, I should add a fire!"

Wang Fu asked, "You want to impeach him?" ”

Cai Jing shook his head slowly, and said very blandly: "Don't be in a hurry, we impeach each other on weekdays, have you ever brought him down?" ”

Tong Guan was surprised: "Taifu plans to bring down Taishi Pang? This ......"

Not only him, but even Cai Xiao was shocked.

In the past two years, Cao Bin has made a lot of moves against Cai Jing and his party in the court.

Duanwang, as their backup, was made to a semi-hidden state, and Gao Yu's fall was also influenced by Cao Bin.

Their political resources have been squeezed quite a bit.

I thought Cai Jing just wanted to take revenge, but I didn't expect him to be such a big deal when he came up.

They were still staring at Cao Bin, but they had already been eyeing Master Pang.

That Pang Taishi has a noble concubine as a support, and there are henchmen all over the outside, controlling the Privy Council, and it is deeply entrenched in the court, where is it so easy to overthrow?

Cai Jing shook his head and smiled:

"This matter also has to rely on Kou Zhun's power, the old man remembers, it was Pang Ji and Yuan Hao who negotiated peace, right?"

"Now that Xixia is declining, the crowd is excited, and the merits of the past will become today's sins, not to mention that his hands and feet are not clean!"

Wang Fu hurriedly asked, "Then are we going to cooperate with Kou Laoxi?" ”

Cai Jing shook his head again and pointed:

"Spread the remarks of Pang Ji's collaboration with the enemy and rebellion in the capital, let Kou Zhun and others fight in the front, I will wait and see what happens, and the final word can be made!"

Zhu Fu slapped his thigh and exclaimed:

"Wonderful! Taifu's plan not only made Pang Ji be questioned by the government and the opposition, but also hit his prestige. ”

"It can attract the attention of Kou Zhun and others, so that they can take the initiative to collect evidence to attack Pang Ji."

"Maybe even the official family will deepen their suspicions, it can be described as killing three birds with one stone!"

Cai Xiao was convinced at this time, this strategy is definitely yin and poisonous enough, borrowing strength to fight and follow the trend, and even without them coming forward, he can achieve his goal.

Just like a kung fu master, any bit of good time, place, luck, and luck will become a tool for him to use.

Cai Jing glanced at Cai Xiao, and finally said: "These are all foreshadowing, and in the end, the old man needs to do it himself." ”

Zhu Fu said: "Pang Ji's incriminating evidence? ”

Cai Jing nodded and said: "With foreshadowing, the evidence of the crime is useful, otherwise it will not be enough to bring him down......"

At this time, Cao Bin was listening to the report of the head of the Imperial City:

"Uncle, the emperor refuses to obey the order."

"Boss Sai said that she doesn't want to be a person without virtue and make you forget her."

The leader of the Imperial City Division never thought that this Uncle Cao in front of him would let them do private work.

and threatened the people in their name.

Nima, if you want fame, we don't want it?

But let you seize the opportunity to use the public weapon for private use, and the thing with the prefix of the emperor is so easy to use?
