Seeing Hu Yanshou resign from entering the palace, Empress Dowager Pan acted very quickly, and before Wang Yanling could react, she directly agreed.

However, in order to block the mouths of the ministers, she did not directly use Hu Yanshou to the end, but personally sealed him to the field as a general.

There is also an intention to do this, that is, not to let him stay in the capital, lest Wang Yanling take the opportunity to play again.

By the time the holy decree came down to the political affairs hall, Hu Yanshou had already taken his family out of Beijing first, so that Wang Yanling had nowhere to find someone, let alone remedy, so angry that he almost vomited blood.

He didn't expect that he and Pan Renmei had been arguing for a long time, and the satisfactory situation that had been brought about by many days and people would be abolished by Cao Bin so easily.

At this point, he had no choice but to step up the selection of other generals to compete for the position of the front secretary of the palace.

"Xiangye, summoned by the Queen Mother."

Just as he was discussing the candidates with his subordinates, someone suddenly came to the palace to summon him.

Wang Yanling frowned, knowing what Empress Dowager Pan summoned him to the palace for, but he hadn't thought of a suitable candidate here, so he felt quite passive.

There was no candidate, and he couldn't even fight.

At this time, someone from one of his subordinates said:

"Xiangye doesn't have to worry, Pan Cao Ergong may not be single-minded, you can use this to delay first."

Wang Yanling nodded, turned around and changed into official clothes and went straight to the palace.

When he arrived at the palace, Cao Bin and Pan Renmei had already been waiting for a long time, and the Empress Dowager Pan directly took out a list and said:

"Wang Xianggong, the Marquis of Zhongjing is playing again, and we must thoroughly investigate the negligence of Shanxi officials."

"This is the candidate he recommended as an envoy, I don't know what you think?"

Hearing that it was not the matter of the front division of the palace, Wang Yanling felt a little relieved, took the list, glanced at Cao Bin thoughtfully, and then looked at Pan Renmei and said:

"It should be checked, the defeat of the Yang family may have been framed by someone."

"And the imperial court is a little harsh on Yang Zongbao, and the old man thinks that he is excusable for transferring troops without authorization......"

Pan Renmei waved her hand indifferently and said:

"The old minister has no objections, just check if you want to."

"As for Yang Zongbao, as a side general...... When the situation is critical, it seems that it is okay to transfer some troops and horses on your own, and you can just discuss giving some bereavement benefits. ”

After speaking, he shook his head directly and said:

"The old minister listens to the arrangement between the mother and the prime minister."

Wang Yanling was going to provoke it, but when she heard these words, her eyes widened in shock, and she didn't know what to say.

In the court, the most hostile to the Yang family is Pan Renmei, both families have relatives who died at the hands of each other, and the hatred is quite deep.

I didn't expect Pan Renmei's attitude to change so quickly, is this a wall grass?

Seeing Cao Bin's satisfied smile, Wang Yanling instantly understood the purpose of his calculation and Hu Yanshou.

He is going to give the position of the front secretary of the palace to Pan Renmei in exchange for the other party's concessions in the matter of the Yang family.

Thinking about this, Wang Yanling felt a little chill in his heart.

He didn't expect Cao Bin to take such painstaking steps to help the Yang family get ahead.

Cao Bin's ambition to control the military power is certainly gratifying, but Pan Renmei's people get this position, and the most disadvantageous thing is himself.

Empress Dowager Pan didn't care what Wang Yanling thought, and said directly:

"Since the prime minister and the prince have no objections, let's handle it according to the will of Marquis Zhongjing."

"For problematic officials in Shanxi, those who commit serious crimes will be killed, and those who commit minor crimes will be punished, and they will not be tolerated!"

"In addition, Yang Zong defended the territory and forgot about death, and he had many meritorious deeds."

"Today, I am unfortunately martyred, and I am the general of the right guard, and the marquis of Jin Yongyi, and I will drop out of the dynasty one day to express the sorrow of the court......"

Wang Yanling opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

I bothered to calculate for such a long time, not to mention that I didn't achieve my goal, and pushed the Yang family to Cao Bin's side, which was really a bit more than worth the loss.

blamed himself for seeing Hu Yan Shouyong wrong, but he didn't expect him to be so vulnerable, and he was directly intimidated by Cao Bin.

In fact, Wang Yanling, as a scholar and doctor, was in the Great Song Dynasty, and his life was quite guaranteed, so it was difficult to understand the trembling psychology of the generals in the court.

Just when he was depressed, Empress Dowager Pan said again:

"In addition to this matter, there is also the position of deputy commander of the front division of the palace, and Cao Qing's family recommended Qinsu Bo Wang Deyong."

"Although this person lacks some credit, his talent is still good, which is very much in line with the meaning of this palace, and the government affairs hall will issue an appointment as soon as possible......

did not give Wang Yanling a chance to refute, and Empress Dowager Pan directly ordered.

Wang Yanling looked at the father and daughter of the Pan family, and then at Cao Bin, feeling extremely helpless, there are only three rulers in the court, although he has the highest status, but there is a queen mother above.

Now that they have united, they have to delay as best they can:

"This ...... Queen Mother, this position is crucial, do you want to hold a court meeting? ”

When Empress Dowager Pan heard this, she was dissatisfied:

"This is not in accordance with the rules of the court, is it?"

"Now that the three important ministers are here, can't they decide on a military position? Why do you need to discuss it? ”

"Could it be that there is a more suitable candidate for the prime minister? Or are you dissatisfied with Wang De's use of talent? ”

Only when there is a difficult or extremely controversial matter, the court will convene a court meeting, and the appointment and dismissal of the post of commander of the front of the palace is obviously not eligible.

Wang Yanling couldn't say a suitable reason, so he could only pinch his nose and admit it.

This time it was a big defeat.

Now he regrets that he has wronged the Yang family, otherwise he would not have gotten to this point.

After this time, he also had to be cautious, the front secretary of the palace was pinched in the hands of the other party, if he provoked the Empress Dowager Pan, he might be able to forcibly remove himself as the prime minister.

I only hope that Cao Bin will not be confused by the father and daughter of the Pan family, and let the Great Song Dynasty cause a disaster for his relatives.

After the discussion was over, the holy decree against the Yang family was also written.

After the "emperor" used the seal with the political affairs hall, Cao Bin pulled Wang Yanling, the prime minister, and personally rushed to Tianbo Mansion to deliver the decree.

Although Wang Yanling was a little embarrassed, it was not easy to refuse.

He should have come to the door to apologize to the Yang family.

After receiving the holy decree, the daughter of the Yang family was sad and happy, sad that she remembered Yang Zongbao's martyrdom, and happy that he did not have to be buried as a criminal general.

And the reward given by the court is also extremely glorious.

Not to mention the right guard general from the second rank, dropping out of the dynasty for a day is a courtesy that only the emperor's closest relatives and important ministers of the court will have.

In terms of practical benefits, the promotion of marquis can allow the Yang family's title to be passed on for several more generations.

"Alas, old lady......"

After passing the holy decree, Wang Yanling was about to explain two sentences, but She Taijun didn't look at him, and directly grabbed Cao Bin and said:

"Juncai, I'm really embarrassed for you this time, in fact, as long as I return the innocence of my Yang family, my old body will be content."

In the final analysis, the defeat of Shanxi was caused by the dereliction of duty of the logistics officials, and as a result, the imperial court was all counted on the head of the Yang family, which really made her unacceptable.

She went on to say:

"Zongbao's reward is a bit excessive, why do you have to pay so much for some fame......"

Now that the Empress Dowager Pan is in charge of the country, in their minds, Cao Bin can ask for so many rewards for Yang Zongbao from the hands of the Empress Dowager Pan, and they don't know how much they have conceded to the father and daughter of the Pan family.

Hearing this, Wang Yanling was embarrassed and depressed at the same time.

Cao Bin didn't lose much, he exchanged my losses for it, but it took a lot of heart......

Cao Bin didn't care about Wang Yanling's thoughts, but comforted:

"Old lady doesn't have to care, these are what Zongbao deserves, and the Yang family deserves."

"Heroes and martyrs should have gained glory and practical benefits, and Cao Mou couldn't see the most loyal and good blood and tears."

"Don't worry, Cao has already received the holy decree, and the imperial court will immediately send a messenger to thoroughly investigate the war in Shanxi."

"The Shanxi officials who framed the Yang family, whether intentionally or unintentionally, none of them can escape!"
