In fact, from the very beginning, Cao Bin had some sense of crisis.

So consciously or unconsciously, I constantly find ways to enhance my strength.

After the fall of Pang Taishi, this sense of crisis became even more serious.

As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, if the emperor has never been able to give birth to an heir, will he still trust himself as he does now?

Thinking of this, Cao Bin has already made a decision.

Although his official position is not high, the backstage is hard enough, and with the support of the emperor, it is not enough to criticize?

As long as things can be done, then a group of officials can be gathered.

He groaned for a moment and said:

"Zihou, Benjue can plan for you to be the governor of Dengzhou, but the new deal is not trivial."

"Especially your ideas, although they are all good governance, there are some things that are not in place."

"Although Benjue agrees with you, he doesn't intend to touch it easily, and he doesn't have the strength to touch it."

Zhang Dian smiled:

"Uncle is too modest, many of Zhang's ideas are inspired by uncle."

"There are some things, although the uncle didn't explain it, but it's already being done."

This is also what Zhang admires...... In fact, Zhang Mou is more willing to follow his uncle and ask for advice from time to time. ”

"Dengzhou is adjacent to Xiangyang, which is also the reason why Zhang wants to go there."

Cao Bin nodded and said:

"In that case, Ben Jue will try it......"

Zhang Dian is a person who does practical things, and Cao Bin still believes it.

Otherwise, like Jia Zheng in the Red Mansion, it would be funny to be treated as a wronged leader by Jia Yucun.

After sending Zhang Dian away, Cao Bin did not delay, and immediately found an acquaintance in the political hall.

It's hard to say that it's hard to say that the icing on the cake is still very easy.

That person was originally an old person from the Pang Taishi family, and when he heard that Cao Bin was going to recommend Zhang Dan, he hurriedly smiled and said:

"Uncle Cao, don't worry, we have also seen Zhang Zihou's self-recommendation post."

"He has enough qualifications, and he is a foreign official in Beijing, plus your recommendation, it is a matter of one sentence."

Tokyo is rich and charming, and there are few Beijing officials who are willing to go out of Beijing.

Zhang Dan's background is not low, and he has real talent, although serving as Zhizhou is a bit unusual, but it is not too difficult.

After getting the exact news, Cao Bin immediately informed Zhang Dian.

I thought that this matter was a foregone conclusion, but I didn't expect that a few days later, Chen Shimei suddenly came to visit with gifts.

It turned out that Chen Shimei was entrusted by the same brother to plan the dispatch of the governor of Dengzhou.

"Uncle Zhongjing, this promotion is very important to my brother Qi, and I hope to take care of one or two in Chen's face."

"You are well-connected in the DPRK, and you don't care about the position of a governor......"

Cao Bin hurriedly stopped him and said speechlessly:

"Chen Yuma, what you said is a bit excessive, how can you say that Cao doesn't care about the location of a governor?"

"Cao is recommending talents for the country, and this official position is also the country, you can't talk nonsense!"

Made, you can let me go, I don't want to lose face.

I've already informed Zhang Dan, you let me regret it, what else do you want to talk about?

Still look at your face? It's kind of hilarious!

Seeing that he hadn't finished speaking, he was blocked back by Cao Bin, Chen Shimei's face was a little ugly, and she gritted her teeth and said:

"If Uncle Zhongjing can become a friend of the world, I am willing to give up 10% of the income in the construction camp!"

Cao Bin was stunned for a moment, looked at Chen Shimei carefully, and after looking at him hairy, he shook his head and said:

"Chen Juma, for the country, how can Cao do it for selfish interests?"

"You don't hear these wild words! If you go out again, I will impeach you. ”

Hearing this, Chen Shimei almost died of anger, when did you Cao Bin become so selfless?

When you say this, you are not afraid that others will laugh off your big teeth.

However, Cao Bin didn't enter the oil and salt, and only replied to him with big words, and he was only angry, and there was nothing he could do.

I had to arch my hand, throw off my sleeves and leave.

Looking at his back, Cao Bin pondered.

No matter how Chen Shimei looks at it, she doesn't look like a person who sells his interests for his friends.

He is willing to pay 10% of the income from the construction camp, which is not simple.

Cao Bin suddenly thought that Chen Shimei's hometown seemed to be in Junzhou, next to Dengzhou.

So he called Shi Qian and gave him some advice......

After a few more days, the people from the political hall suddenly came and said:

"Uncle Cao, Zhang Zihou's matter is a bit troublesome, and Lord Cai of the Third Division personally recommended one."

"It's really not that the lower officials don't do their best, Lord Cai personally recommended it, and even Prime Minister Wang Cheng attaches great importance to it."

When Cao Bin heard this, he was a little speechless, this Chen Shimei is a little capable, and he was able to move Cai Jing out.

With his own connections, there is no way to compete with Cai Jing in the appointment of officials.

Generally speaking, local governors of this level are appointed by the emperor or prime minister himself.

If there is no way, you can only directly recommend to the emperor.

However, if you do this, your intentions are a bit difficult to explain.

After all, this kind of thing is not very in line with one's own personality.

Time flies quickly, and the New Year's Festival arrives in a few days.

This is the second New Year that Cao Bin spent in the Great Song Dynasty.

It's just that as a minister, Cao Bin can't rest for the time being.

Because the first day of the new year is the Zhengdan Dynasty, the emperor accepts the envoys and officials of various countries in the Daqing Palace.

The second day of the first year is to burn incense at the Great Xiangguo Temple.

The third year of the junior high school is the archery and horse race in the South Imperial Garden, and the banquet of envoys and civil and military officials from various countries is held.

To Cao Bin's surprise, Chen Shimei became unexpectedly active, he followed behind Duanwang Zhao Ji and talked about poetry and lyrics with the ministers.

is inseparable from King Duan, as if he has become his close friend.

Seeing Cao Bin looking at him, Chen Shimei came over with a cup, knelt beside him, and said with a smile:

"Uncle Zhongjing, Chen will compensate you first, and I have to do it as a last resort for the matter of the governor of Dengzhou."

"Uncle Zhongjing is not allowed, Chen can only entrust His Royal Highness Duanwang to ......"

Seeing that there was some smugness in his eyes, Cao Bin was a little speechless, and just climbed the high branch, so he couldn't wait to run to his side to show off?

It seems that Zhao Ji didn't remember the lesson of the last grounding, and when the banquet is over, Benjue will give you eye medicine in front of the emperor.

Let him learn a lesson......

In fact, Chen Shimei was also depressed, he took out all his private money, and Duan Wang reluctantly agreed to help, if he didn't show it, he was really depressed.

At the same time, the Queen Mother also held a banquet in the harem.

Women with more than four grades are eligible to participate.

Pang Yanyan is Cao Bin's wife, and his grade is equivalent to that of the earl, and he is also the fourth grade.

As the daughter of a criminal minister, she was ready to be left out before entering the palace, but she didn't expect Empress Dowager Liu to let her sit beside her.

Let the women envy it.

At this time, Princess Duan on the other side suddenly said:

"My prince recently asked Cao Bin to draw a picture of a thousand cranes, sister of the Pang family, can you ......?"
