Seeing Master Pang's calm expression, as if he had expected it, Cao Bin felt relieved.
It seems that the outcome is still under his control...
The meeting did not officially end until near noon.
After standing for almost half a day, even Cao Bin felt a little sore in his back and felt extremely uncomfortable.
I don’t know how those old guys like Taishi Pang can stand it.
As people flowed out of Wende Hall, Cao Bin quickly caught up with Master Pang and asked:
"Master, do you have any plans next?"
Master Pang looked at him funny and shook his head:
"You don't have to worry, Juncai. This is the official procedure of the imperial court."
"Besides, both Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment have our people, so Gao Qiu can't escape."
Cao Bin laughed, gave a thumbs up and said, "The Grand Master is always admirable for his scheming."
Grand Master Pang laughed loudly, patted Cao Bin on the shoulder and said, "In the future, you will learn more and watch more, so that you can navigate the court with ease."
At this moment, Mu Guiying from the Yang family suddenly came over, cupped his hands and said, "Grand Master."
Taishi Pang was surprised and said, "I wonder if Hun Tianhou has any advice?"
Mu Guiying said: "My old lady would like to have a few words with Uncle Zhongjing. Is it convenient?"
Taishi Pang glanced at Cao Bin and said with a smile: "Since Taijun She has invited me, Juncai will go and have a look."
Cao Bin also looked confused, wondering what Taijun She wanted to do with him.
Basically, the Yang family was a new member of the Taizong Dynasty, while the Cao family was an old minister of Taizu, and they did not have much contact with their ancestors.
"Uncle Zhongjing, please."
Mu Guiying stretched out her hand and said.
At this time, Mu Guiying was only in her thirties, with a delicate and charming body, and a looming evil aura.
At first glance, he is someone who is not easy to mess with.
"You're welcome, Hun Tianhou."
Cao Bin said quickly.
Then he followed Mu Guiying and walked towards Taijun She.
Taijun She wore a phoenix crown and Xia Pei, dressed as a married woman.
He was waiting under the imperial wall with a dragon-headed crutch.
Seeing Cao Bin arriving, Taijun She said:
"It's a bit rude to invite Uncle Zhongjing to come see me, an old woman."
Cao Bin quickly waved his hand and said:
"Old lady, your words are serious. The Yang family is a loyal family, and Cao Bin admires them very much."
"Cao Bin is very honored that you can call me."
Taijun She suddenly smiled, nodded and said:
"When Duke Ling was still alive, he fought on the battlefield with your grandfather."
"So I feel it is my duty to give you some advice."
Cao Bin was confused and didn't know what the old lady's purpose was.
Taijun She continued:
"As ministers, the most important thing for us is to serve the country loyally."
"Today, your Majesty, you did something wrong. We ministers should give more advice to the Emperor."
"You can't imitate those who flatter ministers, charm the Holy Lord, and use clever words to invite favors..."
Does this old lady have some objections to her "flattering" remarks in court?
However, Cao Bin strongly disagrees with this statement.
The emperor is also a human being. Who can stand it when you loyal ministers give you advice every day without saying a single nice word?
No wonder the emperor dislikes loyal ministers most of the time.
Seeing that Cao Bin was quite disapproving, Taijun She said:
"I know you were bullied by Gao Qiu. If this happens again in the future, you can come to Tianbo Mansion and talk to me."
"Of course I can't watch these treacherous ministers bullying their colleagues!"
Cao Bin suddenly understood that she wanted to abandon the dark side and join the bright side, and follow Tianbo Mansion.
Thinking of this, he shook his head and said:
"Thank you, Old Lady, for your concern, but the Grand Master has already made a plan, so I won't bother Old Lady."
Although he admired the loyalty of the Yang family, it was a bit difficult for him to work hard for the emperor like the Yang family did.
What's more, his foundation is on the side of Taishi Pang, a traitorous minister. Is it possible for him to turn around and destroy his relatives in a just and righteous way?
Master Pang's family treats him well.
Not to mention that he had to do it, but he couldn't do it even for himself.
Hearing this, Taijun She shook her head with some disappointment and said:
"This is too rude of me. Uncle Zhong Jing, please do what you want."
After Cao Bin left, Mu Guiying persuaded him:
"Grandma, why bother about Cao Bin? He is uneducated and naughty by nature. I don't think Gao Qiu has wronged him."
Taijun She sighed and said:
"Nowadays, there are more and more traitors in this court."
"The Liao Kingdom and Xixia are eyeing the Song Dynasty again. If this continues, what will happen..."
Cao Bin didn't know that Taijun She felt sorry for his stubbornness, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
Since ancient times, it has been difficult to be a loyal minister. As a person who traveled through time in later generations, he believed that he did not have the sentiment or ability to treat the emperor.
"Sedan, go back home!"
After leaving the palace, Cao Bin couldn't help but shook his head.
Ever since he came to this world, he has always acted as he pleased, determined to be a comfortable playboy.
Mrs. She's good intentions may be playing the piano to a cow.
Halfway through the carriage, Cao Bin suddenly saw a slightly familiar figure. He couldn't help laughing and ordered the sedan:
"Don't go back home now. Follow the cart in front. Let's go to a restaurant today."
It was a donkey cart pulling vegetables and raw meat. The beautiful cook "Sai Xishi" was sitting on the cart, holding a handkerchief and constantly fanning the sweat on her pretty face.
I think I just purchased the ingredients and was about to go back.
The sedan agreed and quickly followed the carriage from a distance.
Follow the Imperial Street all the way south, and then east out of the Old Song Gate of the old city.
I saw "Sai Xishi" sitting in a donkey cart and stopped in front of the door of a two-story restaurant that was not very spacious.
A flag "Bazhenfang" hangs on the restaurant.
Sai Xishi once said that she had a restaurant called "Bazhenfang", and I think this is it.
She quickly got off the donkey cart and ordered the waiter in a hurry:
"Second son, hurry up and unload the car. It's going to be noon soon. I'll go to the kitchen to prepare..."
As soon as she walked into the store and wanted to go back to the kitchen, she was blocked by a group of soldiers.
The leader is none other than Gao Yanei’s scoundrel, Lu Qian! Behind him was Lin Chong.
However, Lin Chong hid the moment Lu Qian opened his mouth.
"Mrs. Boss, come with us to Captain Gao's house."
"My yamen has been injured recently, and I don't want to eat or drink, so I'm going to use the skills of the landlady."
Sai Xishi's expression changed, then he laughed and said enthusiastically:
"It is an honor for the shop that the official thinks highly of the little girl's craftsmanship."
"It's just that our store is small and there is no rule about hiring external chefs."
"If you are really hungry for this little shop, why don't you prepare a meal for me and pack it up for you to take away?"
She was familiar with most of the dandies in the capital. Of course she knew who Gao Yanei was, so how could she fall into the trap of a tiger by herself?
Lu Qian smiled and said: "How can the packaged meals be as delicious as the freshly cooked ones? The boss lady should come with me."
With that said, he ordered his soldiers to pull Sai Xishi by force.
Of course, Gao Yanei's purpose was not as simple as wanting to eat food from "Bazhenfang".
A few days ago, he had his eye on Sai Xishi, but before he could take action, he was kicked to death by Cao Bin.
Now that his body has recovered a little, he can't help it anymore.
At this time, Cao Bin's carriage also arrived in front of the "Bazhenfang" gate and saw Lin Chong hiding.
