Chapter 179: Cao Bin, who holds a grudge, and a greedy uncle
The foot of the Black Wolf Mountain.
In the rear convoy.
Cao Bin smiled and said to the women: "How is it?" My iron rider is great, isn't it? ”
The girls had just adapted to it, and Sai Xishi was still frightened, and said with a pale face:
"It turns out that the real battlefield is so tragic......"
She has always had some of the most simple morality, righteous and patriotic, but when she thought that Cao Bin would also go to the battlefield in the future, she became entangled.
After a long time, Fang said: "Cao Xun, will you only be a civil official in the future?" ”
Cao Bin was stunned for a moment, and was about to explain, but Lu Zhishen, who was protecting everyone on the periphery, couldn't help but say:
"When I was an officer in the Western Army, I had never seen such a fierce cavalry."
"If such a cavalry can't fight the Khitan Western Xia, isn't it a waste!"
When Sai Xi Shi heard this, he glanced at him, not wanting to talk to him.
Cao Bin rolled his eyes and said:
"How can there be anything about you here, stand at your post well, if you interject nonsense, I will let the sedan chair accompany you to practice!"
Lu Zhishen shrank his neck and suddenly didn't dare to say more.
At this moment, the three heroes of the Ding family walked over with Yan Chasan and others and said:
"Uncle Zhongjing, Lord Yan Chasan asks to see you!"
Bai Yutang's face was full of depression at this time, he wanted to catch Lan Xiao and make a great contribution and intercept Cao Bin's results.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he chased him to the mountain, he was shot back by a burst of arrows from the man in black who suddenly appeared.
Looking at the style of the repeater, it is clear that it is Cao Bin's subordinates.
Yan Chasan came to Cao Bin and was about to speak, but a pair of eyes caught a glimpse of Sai Xishi, and his face suddenly became complicated.
Seeing him like this, Sai Xi Shi hurriedly got into the car.
Cao Bin coughed and said, "Yan Chasan, why are you here?" ”
Only then did Yan Chasan retract his gaze and said with a serious face:
"Dare to ask Uncle Zhongjing, did you come to investigate the rebellion of the king of Xiangyang during this trip?"
Cao Bin glanced at him with disgust and said, "I have no comment." ”
Yan Chasan was choked for a moment, and said angrily:
"I'm afraid Uncle Zhongjing doesn't know that your robber who attacked this time is the disguise of King Xiangyang's subordinates."
Seeing his posture, Cao Bin's eyes moved, and he said with a smile:
"Lord Yan kindly reminded that Cao is here to thank you, and I am planning to go deep into the Xiangyang Mansion and carefully verify."
"I have a 'bitter meat plan' here, and I want Lord Yan to cooperate with one or two."
Yan Chasan was about to ask a question, but Cao Bin waved his hand directly and said:
"Someone came, Yan Chasan and others didn't report it, which caused Benjue to be ambushed and beaten with forty military sticks to set an example."
When Wu Song and the others heard this, they didn't say a word, and directly stepped forward and pushed Yan Chasan and the others out with their arms twisted.
Yan Chasan still understood what was going on, and he felt a heart-rending pain coming from his hips, and he gasped in pain.
Bai Yutang shouted: "Cao Bin, Bai is a four-rank guard with a knife, not your subordinate, you have no right to punish me!" ”
Jiang Ping smiled bitterly and said:
"It's none of my business! Hiss....... I'm dying, it hurts me to death! ”
Seeing Bai Yutang scolding again and again, Jiang Ping couldn't help but mock:
"Bai Lao Wu, didn't you say that you were willing to sacrifice for big things? Now the last person to scold is you! ”
Bai Yutang was speechless for a moment, and said with resentment: "Isn't it supposed that the people in the room will be beaten when they use bitter meat tricks?" Why hit us? ”
After a while, Wu Song reported: "Tell my uncle, Yan Chasan fainted. ”
Cao Bin nodded and said:
"I think he pretended, but Lao Tzu has been beaten more than 60 times...... Wake him up until he reaches forty. ”
The three heroes of the Ding family looked at each other, Ding Boss swallowed and spit, looked at his third sister and said:
"Is the government so harsh? Do you think about your marriage with Zhan Daxia again? ”
At this time, Shi Qian escorted Lan Xiao forward and reported: "Uncle, the bandit leader has been captured!" ”
Seeing that the sedan chair was still leading people to chase and kill the stragglers, Cao Bin waved his hand and said, "Don't chase it, continue to set off." ”
Xiangyang.
Known as the thoroughfare of the seven provinces, the place where soldiers must fight, across the Han River, is a strategic place to control the nine counties of Jingxiang.
The next day, shortly after the sun rose, the officials of Xiangyang City waited outside the city.
But I waited until noon, and I didn't wait for the shadow of Cao Bin and his party.
The long history of Xiangyang Wangfu is already full of black lines, and it has been rectified yesterday, so that the king of Xiangyang has returned, and today is here again?
So he commanded directly to the messenger behind him:
"Go and explore and see where Cao Bin has been!"
The errand officer ran back more than half an hour before he came back to report:
"Ladies and gentlemen, Cao Zhizhou is now resting in Lijiaqiao Village, let you go there to meet him!"
As he spoke, he hesitated again and said carefully:
"Your Excellency may have brought some gifts, listening to his personal entourage, Cao Zhizhou seems to be a little unhappy!"
Everyone looked at each other, a little incredulous.
Asking for bribes before entering the city? What kind of charter is this Uncle Cao?
Never heard of anything like this?
The chief historian of the palace was a little angry, forced himself to endure it, and then thought about it:
"Let's go and prepare gifts......."
Seeing this, Xiangzhou Tongju and others had no choice but to retreat and go to prepare gifts in a hurry.
At this time, Cao Bin was indeed stationed in Lijiaqiao, not far from Xiangyang City.
It's not that he doesn't want to enter Xiangyang, but he thinks about his own life.
Although it is unlikely that the king of Xiangyang will do it directly, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not suddenly lose his mind and go crazy and rebel with a slap of his brain!
Now most of the officials in Jingxiang Nine Counties are controlled by the King of Xiangyang.
If he really rebelled, Cao Bin, who was in Xiangyang City, would be the first to be unlucky.
Therefore, it is still necessary to put safety first and prudence first.
At this moment, Xia Yuqi limped in and said pitifully:
"Uncle, you are finally here, if you don't come again, the old way will be explained in Xiangyang."
Cao Bin glanced at him, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip and said:
"These days, you're very comfortable in the Qinglou!"
Xia Laodao hurriedly shouted:
"Wronged, uncle, this is not an old way of incompetence."
"It wouldn't be a big deal if there was only a hidden weapon in the tower."
"But there are a lot of thugs in ambush."
As he spoke, he smiled and said:
"Lao Dao is also looking for a safe place to recuperate? lest he be caught by the dog leg of the king of Xiangyang and affect the uncle. ”
"Isn't this uncle coming to Xiangyang, will I come to see you?"
Cao Bin didn't bother to pay attention to him, and said casually:
"I hope you don't drop the chain next, or I'll cut your thing ......."
Xia Laodao only felt a chill under his crotch, and hurriedly swore to reassure him.
I don't know how long later, the sedan chair came in and reported:
"Young master, the officials from Xiangzhou have arrived, and this is their gift list."
Cao Bin took it and looked at it, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Let them in." ”
Since having the emperor's personal endorsement, he said that he was no longer afraid of impeachment.
Not long after, a group of officials entered and were about to pay a salute when Cao Bin suddenly asked:
"Eunuch Qiu, when you enter the door, which foot do you take first?"
The man didn't know why, so he instinctively said: "Back to Lord Zhizhou, it seems to be the left foot!" ”
"Come on, take him down for me......"
