Cao Bin glanced at the spitting Yicheng County Magistrate and said with disgust:
"That's all? Prime Minister Kou is too insincere, and I haven't violated any national laws. Can you still eat me?"
"Besides, I am now an official of the fourth rank. After returning to the capital, I may even be granted the title of Marquis."
"How can Prime Minister Kou give up his position to me? At worst, I will be a lonely minister."
"Furthermore, my Song Dynasty Daily is sold all over the world, and no other newspaper can match it."
"You asked me to cancel the engagement with just a few words. Wouldn't it be ruining my reputation?"
Hearing this, the Yicheng County Magistrate also reacted.
Cao Bin is different from himself. At such a young age, his official position is already very high. No matter how much he is promoted, it is impossible to speed up his promotion.
However, he didn't believe that Cao Bin was talking about his reputation when he had nothing to do with him. His reputation was not very good to begin with.
The Yicheng County Magistrate did not believe that he would put himself in danger for a marriage contract.
To put it this way, I'm afraid it's just for sale.
However, he somewhat agreed with Cao Bin's own self-promotion.
Not to mention the previous reasons, Da Song Daily alone is worth wooing.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said:
"Uncle, don't be anxious. The prime minister actually values you very much. I will send you a letter to Beijing immediately and I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
After saying that, he immediately handed over and left.
Cao Bin didn't know Kou Zhun's plan. If Pang Taishi had to fall, he might as well accept Kou Zhun's protection. It was not easy to be a lonely minister.
Not long after the Yicheng County Magistrate left, Zhan Zhao came again with the three heroes of the Ding family.
Cao Bin quickly ordered: "Call Sister Jiuyue quickly."
After Zhan Zhao came in, he said with a cold expression:
"Uncle, Zhan will not argue with you about what happened last time, but Zhan has official business and must search your residence."
When Cao Bin heard this, he immediately became unhappy and raked the rake down very skillfully:
"What do you mean by guarding? Last time it was because of your own incompetence that you were attacked by thieves. Do you still blame me?"
"Also, the thief has obviously captured you, why are you plotting evil in my cook's house?"
Hearing this, Zhan Zhao was speechless. He was sure that Cao Bin had beaten him, but he had not seen it with his own eyes.
At this moment, a charming voice rang out:
"Zhan Lang, are you here to greet the slave family?"
Hearing this voice, Zhan Zhao frowned and said quickly:
"Uncle, please cooperate with Zhan Zhao's official duties. This is personally assigned by the official."
Cao Bin said:
"Of course I will not disobey the orders of the officials, but the Zhan Guards were always in chaos and finally gave up. Isn't it too much to use the officials to suppress others?"
"You are a fourth-grade guard with a sword in Kaifeng Mansion. Don't you know the laws of the Song Dynasty? If my sister Jiuyue comes to the Yamen to accuse you, you will be accused of molesting a woman from a good family."
There is an unwritten rule in the yamen. If a woman from a good family accuses a man of being a gangster, regardless of whether there is evidence or not, it will basically be assumed that what the woman said is true.
Because few women from good families would taint their innocence and falsely accuse a man, not to mention that Zhan Zhao himself didn’t understand what was going on.
Just as she was talking, Sister Yue Yue had already hugged Zhan Zhao's arm and refused to let go no matter what.
It doesn't matter if Zhan Zhao throws away, nor does it matter if Zhan Zhao doesn't move.
Seeing this, Ding's heroine couldn't help but raise her sword and slash at Sister Yue Yue. Zhan Zhao was startled and quickly blocked it.
As a result, the three heroes of the Ding family fought with Zhan Zhao again.
Cao Bin shouted: "Is there anyone in my mother's family who bullies my sister Jiuyue? Get me the sedan..."
Zhan Zhao had a helpless face and had no choice but to run away again. He had a bad feeling that he might end up with Sister Jiuyue in this life.
Seeing Zhan Zhao leaving again, Cao Bin smiled proudly and was about to go back to his room to celebrate when Shi Qian suddenly appeared and said:
"Uncle, there is news from Yanzi that Grand Master Pang has been sent to Kaifeng Mansion Prison."
"The Grand Master's Mansion was also raided by Kaifeng Mansion..."
Cao Bin's expression changed involuntarily, he pondered for a moment, then sighed and said:
"Order your personal guards to prepare dry food and horses, I will return to the capital immediately!"
After all, he couldn't watch Taishi Pang's family suffer, not to mention his prospective father-in-law. From an emotional point of view, he couldn't accept it either.
On this day, the capital was very lively.
Three days have passed since Master Pang concluded the case.
The common people did not know the specific crimes of the Pang family, but they knew that the political affairs hall issued an imperial edict.
Except for Concubine Pang who was in the palace, the Pang family was sentenced to public punishment.
Although it did not harm the three tribes, it was still tragic enough.
The Pang family's reputation in the capital was not good, so many people applauded.
The criminal has not been escorted to the execution ground, and there is already a sea of people around him.
At the right moment, Taishi Pang's family of four came out of Kaifeng Mansion and were taken to the execution ground.
The people on both sides of the street were quiet for a while, and then started shouting and cursing:
"Haha, the traitor is finally going to be killed."
"You deserve it, big man's heart!"
Suddenly, countless rotten leaves and rotten eggs flew into the cage... From this point, we can also see the affluence of the people in Tokyo.
Master Pang had seen big storms and didn't care about it, but felt a little sad.
Unexpectedly, I had a glorious life and was about to usher in the glorious moment of my life, but because of my carelessness, I lost the chance to escape unscathed.
It’s just that Cai Jing gave in too quickly and let himself get carried away...
But Pang Yu was so frightened that he wet his pants. He never thought that he would end up having to live for only about twenty years.
Blessed, I haven’t enjoyed enough yet!
Thinking like this, he couldn't help shouting: "I don't want to die, I don't want to die..."
Pang Yanyan shed tears and saw the vicious faces of all the people. Thinking of her imminent death, she felt extremely helpless and frightened.
When he arrived at the execution platform and looked at the cold ghost-headed sword, his fear was magnified to the extreme.
On the execution platform, Bao Zheng sat upright in silence, waiting for the arrival of noon.
He was not very happy at the moment, not because he felt sorry for Master Pang, but because he felt that this sentence was a bit irregular.
Watching the autumn sun gradually move towards the sky.
Someone wondered: "Why are there no officials seeing off the Pang family? Doesn't it mean that Pang Ji has many people in his party?"
Someone sneered and said, "It's just a matter of warmth and coldness. Who dares to mess with the Pang family now?"
Some people also lamented:
"The Pang family was so illustrious a few days ago, but now there are no officials to see them off."
"Most people today value profit over righteousness. Even the dignitaries in the court are inevitably like this..."
I do not know how long it has been.
Just as Bao Zheng asked the executioner to prepare, a burst of thunderous horse hooves suddenly sounded on Zhuque Street.
The onlookers looked back and saw hundreds of soldiers rushing over with evil spirits.
"Fuck, hide now..."
"I'm going to die..."
When they saw that the cavalry did not dodge and pointed directly at Xingtai, they couldn't help but run away, leaving enough space.
When Bao Zheng saw this, his expression suddenly changed. He stared closely at Cao Bin, who was in front of the cavalry, who was coming after a long journey, and said sadly:
"Cao Bin, what are you going to do! Do you want to rebel?"
Master Pang shook his head and sighed: "Juncai shouldn't have come back. It's just a waste of your future!"
When Pang Yanyan heard this, she couldn't help but burst into tears and said, "Brother Juncai, let's go!"
Cao Bin looked at Master Pang, then at Pang Yanyan, jumped out of the sweaty horse, wiped her tears and said:
"Don't worry, even if the sky falls, I will hold you back!"
