Seeing Pang Yanyan lowering her head in grievance, Pang Ji advised:
"Daughter, although you are a little wronged by this matter, it is also a last resort."
"As long as Juncai has you in his heart, a title is nothing. You don't want the Cao family to fall, right?"
Pang Yanyan quickly raised her head, glanced at Cao Bin with tears in her eyes and said:
"Dad, Yanyan understands, as long as you treat brother Juncai well, I will listen to you."
Pang Ji nodded with satisfaction, stroked his beard and smiled:
"Juncai, why do you have any hesitation? Although the position of Prince Consort will have some restrictions on you."
"But after all, you come from a different background, so you still have a future..."
Seeing that his old father-in-law made such appropriate arrangements for himself without saying a word, Cao Bin was moved and a little speechless at the same time.
Although he was lustful, he was not yet at the point of divorcing his wife and remarrying. He stepped forward to wipe Pang Yanyan's tears and said with a smile:
"Stop crying. My husband can't let go of my senior sister, so how can I let you be wronged?"
"I have already said that you will always be the wife of my Cao family, and that will never change in this life."
"Besides, husband and wife are one body. Isn't it just like cutting off a limb and cutting off the flesh if one abandons the wife and betrays the alliance?"
"I'm afraid of pain for my husband, but I don't want to hurt my body!"
When Pang Yanyan heard this, all her grievances disappeared, she hugged him quickly and said:
"Yanyan doesn't care. As long as she can be with her husband, Yanyan is willing to be a concubine."
Cao Bin rubbed her head and interrupted:
"Okay, don't think too much. My husband has his own plans for everything going up. It's not your turn to bear it yet."
As he said that, he turned to look at Pang Ji and said:
"Father-in-law, my son-in-law thinks the situation is not that bad yet."
"I intend to help the young prince ascend to the throne!"
Pang Ji grinned in discomfort when he saw Cao Bin and Pang Yanyan being intimate with each other.
Unexpectedly, my son-in-law, who has always been a libertine, actually has a loving side. Although he was a little pleased, he was mostly angry.
For him, the relationship between men and women is just a trivial matter, so he couldn't help but lecture:
"Juncai, a man should act informally. How can he indulge in the alliance between men and women?"
"Helping Prince Pan ascend the throne? What can you do to help?"
"To achieve success, you must follow the trend and use the strong to bully the weak. If you go against the trend, it will only be a thankless effort."
"Do you think you can do whatever you want because you are invincible in martial arts?"
"Even if you are covered in iron, how many nails can you drive in?"
"Throughout the dynasties, how many brave and proud people met a good end?"
As he spoke, he shook his head and said:
"You are still too young."
Pang Ji thought that Cao Bin was young and energetic, could not bear grievances, and could not tolerate shortcomings.
But as an old politician, he knows that if he wants to stay in the court, he must tolerate flaws, live in harmony, and know how to endure and compromise, so that he can prosper and prosper.
The people who are most capable of achieving great things in this world are definitely not those who are perfect or gifted, but those "fools" who are persevering and not afraid of failure.
A gentleman has no talent. Once a person is indulged in his own talent, it will be difficult for him to tolerate others.
In order to make Cao Bin understand, Pang Ji patiently explained:
"You have talented people, but sometimes your manpower is poor. Not to mention how difficult it is to support Prince Pan."
"Even if you try your best to help him ascend to the throne, it will still be Pan Renmei who holds the power. How much good will it do to you?"
"Besides, he is weak and weak. Once he dies, all his previous achievements will be ruined. King Duan will still take the throne in the future."
"At that time, you will be in a dilemma and it will be difficult to get over!"
How could Cao Bin not understand what he said? But Pangji didn't know his trump card.
He is a systematic person.
Things that are difficult for others are not too difficult for him to solve.
High risks bring high rewards.
Since there will be a large number of supporters in King Duan, even if Cao Bin joins in, how much benefit will there be? Maybe he will still hate you.
The little prince is different.
Most people thought it would be difficult for him to ascend the throne, but that was because the emperor could not wake up.
But in Cao Bin's time and space mall, there is also a "One Day Card to Suspend Life and Extend Life". As long as he sees the emperor, it is likely to wake him up.
With the emperor's backing, as long as Zhao Ji's heir position has not been determined, he can issue an edict to forcibly establish the young prince as his heir.
With the emperor's righteousness in hand, Cao Bin could mobilize troops to suppress the courtiers.
If Zhao Ji wants to fight for the throne, he can only launch a mutiny, but will Cao Bin be afraid of a mutiny?
As for the little prince's physical problems, Cao Bin can solve them with just a adopted son inheritance card, and then he will become the person who will benefit the most.
The problem now is how to make the little prince recognize his father.
Cao Bin never thought about usurping the Song Dynasty, but his own safety and interests must be protected...
Duan Wang's rise was a crisis in Pang Ji's view, but in Cao Bin's own view, it was an excellent opportunity.
If Pan Renmei and his daughter were not in a desperate situation, how could they agree to his unreasonable request?
Therefore, the current situation does not seem to be friendly to Cao Bin, but it is exactly what he wants to see.
There are only two things Cao Bin has to do now.
The first is to use up the points earned by purchasing the "Life-Sucking Card".
The second is to wait for Pan Renmei to fall into a desperate situation and seek revenge on herself.
Although Cao Bin does not have enough influence in the court, his influence in the army is definitely worth winning over.
Most of the imperial troops in Beijing are now newly recruited, with more than half under the control of Li Zhaoming, one-third under the control of Pan Renmei, and Cai Jing and others have also won over some.
Although Cao Bin's old subordinates only control a few thousand people, less than one tenth, they are all elite veterans.
And with his reputation, he has absolute appeal among veterans.
If you can't win in court.
Pan Renmei will definitely make up his mind on the mutiny. With his own strength and unable to gain an advantage, he will definitely think of Cao Bin...
Cao Bin was about to reveal some trump cards to Pang Ji, but suddenly he heard a strange bird call outside.
He listened carefully, and sure enough he heard slight breathing outside the back window, so he immediately changed his tone, raised his hands and said:
"Father-in-law, stop talking."
"Cao Bin is originally a playboy. He is ignorant and has no skills. He just wants to live in ignorance."
"Your Majesty has not given up on me and has entrusted me with important tasks. I have been generously rewarded by the high nobles. I have been treated with such kindness that I have never seen before in this court."
"It is said that a gentleman will die for a confidant, and a woman will look good for a person who pleases herself."
"Your Majesty is in the dust now, how can my son-in-law just sit back and watch?"
"Even if the whole world is your enemy, there is only death, so why should you be afraid?"
As he said that, he saw the "Martial Military Uniform" used to show off his saintly favor in the living room, and quickly took it over and said:
"Since Your Majesty has bestowed upon me the crown and uniform of a Military Marquis, I shall bow my head to the utmost till my death!"
Finally, he said categorically:
"Except for His Majesty's bloodline, I, Cao Bin, don't recognize anyone!"
Seeing his righteous expression, Pang Ji suddenly scratched his head.
It turns out that my son-in-law is so loyal, so...amazing?
Isn't it a bit too much to persuade him based on utilitarian gains and losses?
For a moment, he felt a little embarrassed and ashamed.
He opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. After a long while, he looked at him suspiciously and said:
"Juncai, are you not sick?"
"You have to think clearly. If you make one wrong move, everything will be ruined."
Cao Bin said speechlessly:
"Father-in-law, don't worry, my son-in-law will never regret it even after nine deaths!"
The trump card was not easy to explain anyway, so he was too lazy to find another reason.
At this time, the female spy sent by the Imperial City Division outside the window was already a little crazy. She never thought that the always unobtrusive Mr. Hou could be so loyal.
She hurriedly recited Cao Bin's words silently several times, and planned to remember it firmly in her heart, report it to her superiors word for word, and record it in the record.
After the emperor wakes up, report it to the emperor, or report it to the next emperor...
