Cao Bin glanced at Grand Master Pang and refused:
"The empress dowager's kindness, I appreciate it, but my family has a marriage contract with the grand master, I don't want to break my promise!"
Kou Zhun's confidant looked anxious and was about to intervene, but the Queen Mother waved her hand and said:
"Don't be in a hurry to refuse, Zhongjing Boke can discuss it with the Grand Master before giving an answer to Aijia."
With that said, she got up and said:
"The Ai family is also extremely boring, and they are ordered around by you courtiers... Well, the Ai family should go too!"
After speaking, she took out a tooth card and said:
"Ai's family is trapped in the palace and rarely moves around. If you want to see Ai's family, you can come directly to Zhaoyang for convenience."
Seeing this, everyone looked at Cao Bin in surprise.
With the queen mother's order and this token, Cao Bin does not need to be notified when he enters the palace. He only needs to follow Princess Zhaoyang to see the queen mother Liu.
When did Cao Bin get so close to Empress Dowager Liu?
Even Grand Master Pang was a little unbelievable, but he felt that Cao Bin's approach was too wild and a bit out of the ordinary.
But Empress Dowager Liu had already walked out, and everyone had no time to think about other things, so they hurriedly bowed to see her off.
When Empress Dowager Liu left, Pan Bao was full of anxiety, and followed Cao Bin closely, impatiently asking:
"Brother Bin, you won't regret your marriage, will you?"
"Sister Pang's family is such a good woman, if I will never let down this deep friendship......"
Before he could finish speaking, Pang Yu kicked him to the ground, pointed at his nose and cursed angrily:
"Get out, even if Juncai doesn't regret the marriage, then Eighth Sister Yang won't be your turn to covet."
"What kind of virtue is your family? Don't you know it? It's good that Eighth Sister Yang doesn't hack you to death. Get lost..."
Seeing him fall headfirst to the ground, Pang Yu ignored him and hurriedly caught up with Cao Bin to ask.
Pan Bao was helped up by his servants. Looking at the backs of the crowd, he couldn't help wiping away his tears, full of disappointment.
"Master, let's go home!"
Pan Bao hunched over, waved his hands weakly, and said with a mournful face:
"Let's go."
He feels that he has lost too much today, not only his friends are broken, but even the goddess is about to marry.
Although he didn't dare to blame his father, he suddenly had the idea of leaving the capital and going to the frontier.
Now, Bianjing has become his sad place.
Grand Master Pang returned to the room, sat down again, and said:
"Juncai, you don't hate the eighth sister of the Yang family, do you?"
Before Cao Bin could answer, Grand Master Pang continued:
"This is a rare opportunity, and the old man will not be able to help you in the future."
"If you marry the Yang family, not only will you get help in the army, Kou Zhun will also support you."
"The most important thing is that the Pang family also needs you to sacrifice..."
Cao Bin hesitated for a moment, and Fang smiled wryly, "I'm afraid that Kou Zhun will hate me!"
As he said that, he explained in detail the matter of overturning the case in the palace.
Taishi Pang shook his head with a smile and said:
"Kou Zhun is not someone who will take revenge. The more you embarrass him, the more he will value you. You don't have to worry about this."
After finishing speaking, he called Pang Yanyan out and said:
"The old man is in charge of this matter, and the marriage contract between the two of you is hereby annulled."
"Yanyan, don't blame Juncai, he is also trying to save my Pang family."
With red eyes, Pang Yanyan nodded aggrievedly and said:
"Father, I know, I don't blame Brother Juncai, I..."
As she spoke, she couldn't help crying.
She has made a marriage contract with Cao Bin since birth, and has always regarded him as her future husband-in-law. Now she suddenly canceled the marriage contract, as if she suddenly lost something important in her life.
Sad for a while...
Tianbo Mansion is in the northwest corner of Bianjing City.
Although large in size, the decor is modest.
Most of a garden has been converted into a school field.
At this time, Eighth Sister Yang was dancing swords in the school grounds.
It's just that she was a little distracted, and her set of sword skills was in a mess.
Yang's Sanniang and Wuniang shook their heads and said with a smile, "If you can't meditate, don't practice."
Eighth Sister Yang handed the long sword to the female guard, and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Sanniang smiled and said, "Old Madam, let us ask you what you think."
Eighth Sister Yang said angrily: "Is my opinion important? Mother has the final say."
Wu Niang hesitated for a moment, then nodded seriously and said:
"Cao Bin is lazy, lacks knowledge in martial arts, and is sensual. He is much worse than Zong Bao. He really doesn't deserve you."
"If you really don't want to, I'll go to the old lady and beg her to reject Kou Xiang."
Eighth Sister Yang was stunned for a moment, her eyes fluttered, and she struggled and said:
"For the sake of the court, I... I will sacrifice a bit."
Sanniang laughed so hard, she leaned on Wuniang's shoulder and said:
"Where is she unwilling? It's just that she can't let go of face."
"Although Cao Bin is not as good as Zong Bao, his character and talent are not bad."
"At least he is better at pleasing women than Zongbao..."
At this time, Mu Guiying just walked in and said doubtfully:
"What's wrong with Zong Bao? He has just arrived at Waqiaoguan, so he won't reply so soon."
Sanniang shook her head and said, "We didn't talk about Zong Bao, we were talking about Cao Bin...how is it, is it over?"
Mu Guiying said: "No, Cao Bin has to think about it."
Eighth Sister Yang raised her eyebrows, she felt her face was greatly hurt, and she said angrily, "He's still considering...I don't agree!"
Sanniang heard this and couldn't help laughing again.
In a blink of an eye, four or five days have passed.
Du Shiniang and others still stayed in Xiangyang and did not return to Beijing, so the Zhongjing Hou Mansion was inevitably a little deserted.
The imperial court also operated in an orderly manner according to the planning of several big shots.
On this day, the imperial court finally approved Pang Taishi's request to become an official.
For the Pang family, Bianjing has become a place of right and wrong.
If Taishi Pang continues to stay in Tokyo, it is inevitable that someone will take advantage of his qualifications and reputation to make troubles.
Therefore, on the day of the court's approval, the Pang family set off to return to their hometown.
Looking at the Pang family's leaving convoy, Cao Bin was rather melancholy.
He secretly thought, maybe he should bribe some masters of etiquette to let them come up with the etiquette of "Jianxiu". Presumably the Yang family will also be very grateful to him...
He himself has no special love for Pang Yanyan and Eighth Sister Yang.
Even if you like it, it's just mostly good-looking.
There is no deep affection that no one should marry.
Changing the marriage partner this time is just to let the Pang family get out of the way.
At this moment, Uncle Fu hurried over and said excitedly:
"Young master, hurry back to the mansion, Mr. Kou personally came to the mansion to announce the decree, and has already prepared the dowry for you."
"Just waiting for your promotion and marriage proposal..."
Although Uncle Fu regretted the downfall of Grand Master Pang, he hoped that the Cao family would prosper.
Knowing that his ancestor's title would be restored, he wrote an invitation to the old Cao family overnight, intending to celebrate with great fanfare.
So today's Zhongjinghou Mansion is very lively.
There are officials from Pang's party, Qingliu from Kou Zhun's line, and old friends of the Cao family.
When Cao Bin returned home, the incense table and other things were ready, and Kou Zhun was waiting.
"Cao Bin accept the order!"
The imperial decree is very simple, first to affirm Cao Bin's character and achievements, and then to be promoted to a noble and official.
Needless to say the title, the deputy commander of the Dianqian Division is a fourth-rank dispatcher, mainly in charge of the Dianqian Division's soldiers and horses.
The most important job in the imperial court is dispatching.
Jilu officials and titles are also slightly inferior, and other officials like Wusan officials, honors, and post officials have less actual effect.
For example, Kou Zhun's official dispatch is "Tong Zhong Shu's door to make peace with Zhang Shi", and he is only the second grade.
Although his prime minister's position is a first-class official, it is a false position, and the title is just nice.
Seeing Cao Bin accept the imperial edict, the officials below couldn't help but look complicated.
Some were envious and jealous, while others were resentful, and couldn't help muttering:
"Pang Ji was immediately promoted by Mr. Kou just after he became an official. Cao Bin was really lucky."
Someone sneered and said:
"You still don't understand. In fact, Kou Xiang has entrusted the queen mother to be a matchmaker to arrange marriage for the Cao and Yang families."
"Cao Bin has completely cast himself under Kou Xiang's family, and he will surely be successful in the future..."
The old members of Pang Taishi's department also talked a lot, and now Pang Taishi has fallen and scattered, and everyone is facing the danger of being excluded.
It's okay to be clean, even if you don't rely on others, you can barely survive.
For those who are afraid of stains, they must find the tissue as soon as possible, otherwise they will be cleaned up easily.
It's just that everyone didn't expect that Cao Bin, the son-in-law of the Pang family, was the one who moved the fastest.
The seamless connection, the quick transition between the courts, and the incomparable silkiness, is this too immoral?
Not only that, but the most exasperating thing is that he has received such attention.
Not only was he not implicated by Grand Master Pang, but he even went to the next level... This makes people jealous!
At this time, Kou Zhun had already smiled cordially:
"Juncai, the old man has already prepared a dowry gift for you, so let's go propose marriage!"
Cao Bin was a little puzzled, this old guy was more anxious than himself, and he didn't enter the bridal chamber, so what?
But the matter was at this point, and he had no reason to refuse, and was about to nod when Shi Qian suddenly squeezed into the crowd.
He hurried to Cao Bin's side and said in a low voice:
"Uncle, it's not good. We found out that the imperial court sent several generals to intercept and kill the Grand Master!"
"Fuck..."
Cao Bin looked at Kou Zhun in disbelief, and asked, "Mr. Kou, what do you mean? You don't believe what you say?"
Kou Zhun gave Shi Qian a cold look, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and then said:
