Zhongjing Marquis Mansion, enter the Nuan Pavilion in the second courtyard.

"Princess, you let my pigeon go last time, can't you escape this time?"

"Cao Bin, you are so presumptuous, please let me go...don't do this."

Hearing the movement in the house, the female officer immediately became anxious. She quickly took a few steps and broke into the house regardless of the obstruction of the sedan chair.

When the sedan saw this, he blinked innocently, laughed twice, and stood with his arms akimbo like a door god.

After a while, Princess Zhaoyang's voice came from the room again:

"Cao Bin, catch her quickly, don't let her escape. If she goes to the palace to report, we will both be finished."

Then, a cry of pain was heard, and the candlelight in the Nuan Pavilion began to sway rhythmically.

On the second day, at dawn, the female officer and the princess supported each other, came out from the side door of the Marquis Mansion, and quietly boarded the carriage.

The princess rubbed her sore thighs and suddenly worried:

"I'm staying out all night. If Chen Shimei asks, it will be troublesome."

The female officer said firmly:

"Don't worry, princess, just leave it to your slave. I have already thought of the reason."

The princess looked at her strangely, and the female officer blushed and defended:

"This slave is also doing it for the royal family's face..."

Princess Zhaoyang was speechless for a moment.

Last night, Pang Yanyan and others went to bed early and had no idea what happened in the front yard. At this time, they were eating with Cao Bin.

While they were chatting and laughing, the maid came to report:

"Uncle, Qin Xianglian's mother and son would like to see you."

Cao Bin said: "Ask them to come in!"

After a while, Qin Xianglian walked in with her son and daughter, pressed the child's head and knelt down in the tunnel:

"Thank you Uncle Cao for saving my life, otherwise we, mother and son, would not have been able to escape the murderous hands of someone with a bad heart."

"Qin Xianglian is a civilian girl, I don't know what she wants to repay!"

Cao Bin waved his hand and said solemnly:

"Hurry up and get your children up. I am always very fond of fighting injustices. I hate those who are unlucky. It's just a trivial matter."

He was just thinking about how to persuade Qin Xianglian to go to Kaifeng Mansion to complain, when he heard a "gudong" sound and the sound of swallowing saliva.

Seeing the two children staring eagerly at the breakfast on the table, Cao Bin laughed and ordered:

"Come here, prepare a meal in the side hall, more meat."

As he spoke, he personally helped the two children up, patted their shoulders, and said sadly:

"What a good kid, Chen Shimei is a little crazy!"

Qin Xianglian felt sour when she heard this. Just as she was about to speak, the servants had already placed chicken, duck, fish, meat, fruits and vegetables in the side hall.

Cao Bin personally led them to their seats and said:

"Okay, Sister Qin, we'll talk about it later. You guys need to fill your stomachs first."

"Keep an eye on your child. If you haven't seen meat for a long time, don't eat too much."

After saying that, he withdrew very thoughtfully, leaving only the mother and son.

Qin Xianglian couldn't help but feel warm in her heart when she saw this.

Such a powerful person can be so attentive, which can't help but move people.

"Mom, can we eat?"

asked the two children.

Qin Xianglian nodded and said: "Eat it, you must remember Uncle Cao's kindness."

When the two children heard the permission, they couldn't help it. They raised their chopsticks and started eating.

After their hunger was relieved a little, the two children's actions unconsciously became gentle and polite.

Thinking of Cao Bin's warm and strong hands when he patted his shoulder just now, the boy suddenly choked up while holding the duck leg:

"It would be great if Uncle Cao were my father, then my mother would not be bullied."

He had not been cared for by his father since he was a child. It was the first time he received care from a man, and it felt very different.

Hearing this, the girl nodded seriously and said:

"Brother Uncle Cao captured that bad woman yesterday and must have spanked her."

Qin Xianglian blushed and said angrily: "Shut up, I can't stop your mouths even if I eat."

When the two children saw their mother being angry, they quickly stuck out their tongues and did not dare to speak.

After two cups of tea, Qin Xianglian led the two children out of the side hall, with a determined look in her eyes, and knelt down directly on the ground:

"Please Uncle Cao make the decision for us, I want to sue Chen Shimei!"

Cao Bin was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that Qin Xianglian had already made a decision without having to persuade him.

Afraid that she would shrink back, Cao Bin slapped the table and said wildly:

"Okay, I support Sister Qin's decision. You can go ahead and file a lawsuit."

"If Bao Heizi is afraid of the powerful and bends the law for personal gain, I will smash his Kaifeng mansion!"

"Even if the queen mother or princess comes, I will still stand by you..."

Hearing this, Pang Yanyan and others couldn't help but rolled their eyes and snickered silently.

How did Qin Xianglian know the size of the official position?

She only knew that Cao Bin was not afraid of the princess, which was enough to awe her.

Therefore, after hearing Cao Bin's guarantee, she seemed to have found a supporter and said excitedly:

"Thank you uncle, thank you uncle."

She insisted on suing Chen Shimei, partly because of her hatred for him, but more importantly because she was afraid that he would kill her and her two children if he persisted.

Even if they return to their hometown, mother and son still have no way to survive.

The teenage boy already had his own thoughts. When the boy heard Cao Bin's majestic speech, he couldn't help but show admiration in his eyes, and suddenly asked:

"Uncle Cao, can I recognize you as my father?"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, and Du Shiniang spit out a mouthful of rice.

Qin Xianglian was terrified, her eyes filled with anger, and she turned around to slap her son.

For such a wealthy family to be able to help him is already a great favor, how could he still be so ignorant?

Seeing this, Cao Bin quickly shouted: "Slow down!"

It turned out that the moment the boy spoke, the system prompt suddenly sounded.

[Special Dandy Event Trigger: Special gift from Senior Prime Minister Cao! 】

[The adopted son Qian'er set of cards (Cao Zhen, Qin Lang, He Yan): Inheritance and growth card, merge with the adopted son, obtain the corresponding growth inheritance, and be absolutely loyal to the host]

Hey guys, I’m giving away three character inheritance cards “for free”, which is a very rare thing.

These three cards are growth cards, which cannot allow the fusion person to instantly obtain the abilities of the characters in the cards, but they have the ability to grow.

And the three characters in the card aren’t too bad either.

Cao Zhen was extremely powerful, brave and strategic. He once commanded the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. Later, he defeated Zhuge Liang and defeated Soochow. He was the auxiliary minister of Wei.

He Yan and He Yan were both top talents in Wei State, both in literature and in military affairs.

Although Qin Lang is close, he is not far behind. The attribute of absolute loyalty alone is worth having.

Hearing Cao Bin's words, Qin Xianglian was stunned for a moment and said doubtfully: "Uncle, are you..."

Cao Bin laughed, stared at the boy and said:

"Come on, call daddy!"

The boy immediately shouted: "Dad!"

"Why!"

Cao Bin laughed loudly and said: "From now on, your surname will be Cao and your name will be changed to Cao Zhen. Are you willing?"

The boy nodded and said, "I listen to daddy!"

Cao Bin said happily: "That's very good. Daddy will give you something. Close your eyes."

As he spoke, he reached out and patted the "Cao Zhen Heritage Growth Card" on the boy's forehead. A warm current spread throughout his body, making him feel comfortable.

But in the eyes of others, there was no abnormality.

After a long while, the boy opened his eyes, looked at Cao Bin with admiration and said, "Dad, are you a god?"

Cao Bin said with a "shush" and a smile:

"Don't say it. No one can tell it to anyone in the future. This is a secret between us, you know..."
