Hearing Empress Dowager Pan's words, Cao Bin looked at Li Gongliang and asked with a smile in his eyes:

"It turned out that it was Li Xianggong admonishing?"

Li Gongliang also wore a coarse cloth robe at this time, went to the crown, and wrapped a gray hairband around his gray bun, which looked chic and not bad.

Seeing Cao Bin asking about himself, he quickly stopped stroking his beard, and said with a little bit of a shake on the pot:

"Wei Guogong misunderstood, in fact, this is Wen Xianggong's proposal."

"Li just happened to be at the meeting, and he just handed over official business to his mother, and he had to be inquired by his mother to convey the matter."

Wen Yanbo did casually say something to him a few days ago, but he didn't let him convey it, and he didn't know what Wen Yanbo was thinking, but he definitely had bad intentions towards the new law.

He would have been happy to push the boat with the current.

But he didn't expect the Queen Mother to come to Cao Bin, so as not to be targeted by Cao Bin, he decisively threw the pot to Wen Yanbo.

He doesn't seek merit, but he wants no fault, and it has nothing to do with him anyway.

Cao Bin suddenly understood when he heard this, but he didn't care, and laughed with his palm:

"Ben Jue is bored, so it's okay, where does Wen Shu want Niang Niang to inspect the new deal?"

In the original history, it was a eunuch who took the opportunity to present a "Diagram of the Displaced People" to the emperor, which made the emperor feel guilty about the people and weep bitterly, so that he completely stopped changing the law.

In order to prevent someone from using this method to divide the Empress Dowager Pan again, it is necessary to let the Empress Dowager Pan take a look at the impact of the new law on the people.

Li Gongliang feigned and recalled:

"Wen Shuxiang seems to have mentioned Yongqiu......"

Cao Bin waved his hand and said:

"Then go to Yongqiu, otherwise it will seem that Benjue is weak-hearted, and it is convenient to travel by boat."

As he spoke, he looked at the Empress Dowager Pan again and said:

"Queen Mother, please take a rest in Wechen's manor first, and Wechen will order someone to prepare."

Although Yongqiu is only a hundred miles away from Bianjing, and it can be reached in two or three hours down the river, it is definitely not possible to return to Beijing on the same day, and it is still necessary to prepare service materials.

Empress Dowager Pan walked into the garden with Cao Bin, looked at the red plums of Minghu Lake in the garden, smelled the residual smell of barbecue in the air, glared at Cao Bin, and felt a little unhappy.

In addition to presiding over the court meeting every day, he returned to the harem and worked hard to review the chapters.

Especially after the implementation of the new policy, there are more things and chapters, and it is difficult to have a rest, but I didn't expect Cao Bin, an auxiliary minister, to have time to come on vacation.

For a while, she was a little jealous.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but say to Cao Bin:

"Don't shy away from it in private, call your wife and concubine out, this palace is just looking at the beauty of Cao Qing's family."

Cao Bin's heart suddenly tightened when he heard this, this is because he has an opinion, and he wants to give a dismount? Since ancient times, heroes have been sad about the Shura field, but he still encountered it after all.

However, there were outsiders in person, and he couldn't refuse, so he had to call all the women in the family out.

To his surprise, Empress Dowager Pan didn't go too far, she only pulled Pang Yanyan and said a few words, and then let them retreat, which made Cao Bin's concubines very excited.

Just as he was breathing a sigh of relief, Empress Dowager Pan said with some sourness:

"Cao Qing is really blessed, she has hidden so many superb beauties at home!"

"As the saying goes, beauty loses bones, and I don't know if Cao Qing is immersed in the gentle township, and whether he has the energy to deal with government affairs......"

Hearing this, Cao Bin knew that he had passed the test, and immediately laughed:

"The queen mother also knows the strength of the minister, and the minister has always been energetic, so he will not delay any major events."

"Could it be that Niangniang is not satisfied with Weichen? Do you want to remove the minister and let Li Xianggong be the first assistant? ”

Hearing this, Empress Dowager Pan and Li Gongliang both jumped in their hearts, and Li Gongliang hurriedly waved his hand and said:

"Grandpa must have misunderstood Niangniang, compared to Grandpa, Li Mou's talent is shallow, and he never dared to hope for the position of the first assistant!"

Empress Dowager Pan was speechless, she didn't expect Cao to be so bold.

In front of Li Gongliang and other courtiers, he asked himself if he was dissatisfied, satisfied is satisfied, but this bastard is not afraid of being heard of the meaning beyond his words?

Thinking like this, she hurriedly looked at Mrs. She, who was sitting below, and saw that she was at a loss, so she put her mind at ease, and reprimanded:

"Cao Qing had better understand the principle of 'self-denial and revenge', if he is absent from his job for no reason, he will not blame the palace for punishment."

warned Cao Bin, she also knew that the other party was taking revenge on herself, so she no longer talked about the topic of the Cao family's women, but she was secretly annoyed in her heart when she was competitive, and she made up her mind that she would definitely find an opportunity to secretly "retaliate" back......

After waiting for a short time with Empress Dowager Pan, someone outside came to report that the guards and ships had been prepared.

At the Bianhe Wharf, in addition to a medium-sized merchant ship that they need to take, there is also a large official ship behind them that will follow from afar.

As the ships lift anchor, the scenery on both sides of the river slowly recedes, and the thriving trade bazaars gradually disappear, and with them are farmlands, villages and farmhouses.

Li Gongliang smiled and pointed to the fields on both sides of the river, peasant women and children who were picking up wheat ears and sorghum and said:

"Niangniang, it seems that the peasants are living a good life, you see, they have no vegetables, and they have a smile on their faces, this is all the work of Niangniang!"

For ordinary people in ancient times, it was already the norm to not have enough to eat all year round, and there was no food on their faces, which was basically a manifestation of prosperity.

Hearing this, Empress Dowager Pan's face finally improved a little, turned her head and nodded to Cao Bin and said:

"Wang Anshi did a good job, you have meritorious service, what reward do you want?"

Cao Bin humbly said as usual:

"The merit of the size of the micro-minister should not be rewarded by the mother......"

Who knew that the Empress Dowager Pan nodded directly and said:

"That's fine, rewarding Wang Anshi after returning to Beijing will be regarded as a reward for you."

"Forehead ......"

Cao Bin was stunned for a moment, and then reacted that Empress Dowager Pan was still angry about her offense in the manor, and she was a little speechless in her heart.

Empress Dowager Pan has a strong desire for power, and she has nothing to do in private, and once she talks about business, she must have the upper hand.

Otherwise, she will take the opportunity to knock and retaliate, and appear extremely strong, and she is a smooth donkey.

Cao Bin didn't care, she slept anyway, and it was okay to brush her hair, so he also smiled:

"It is also a blessing for Weichen to be praised by my mother."

When the ship arrived in Yongqiu, it was past noon, leaving the guards on the boat, Cao Bin jumped off the boat first, stretched out his arm to the Empress Dowager Pan and said:

"Mother, please."

Empress Dowager Pan's heart jumped again, and she put Hao's wrist on his arm as if nothing happened, and slowly walked off the boat.

At this time, it was different from the manor, and the first time she touched her skin brightly, she felt both exciting and a little sweet, as if she understood Cao Bin's psychology in the manor.

The etiquette of the Great Song Dynasty was not strict enough to find trouble, and everyone did not feel very polite when they saw Cao Bin looking like a palace attendant.

Only She Taijun was a little unaccustomed to seeing it in the back, muttered a word of sycophancy, and also helped Mu Guiying get off the boat, and advised:

"After getting off the ship, the guards can't get close to protect them, Gui Ying follows closely, lest there really be assassins."

Mu Guiying nodded, looking at the backs of Cao Bin and Empress Dowager Pan a little hesitantly...... She always felt that something was wrong with the two.
