    ?

    In Jinglongmen Cai Taishi's mansion, Cai Jing is lying down and pretending to be sick, because he is hiding from his second son, and the son of the province has to teach him and Zhang Jue what to do.

    Of course the treacherous and cunning Lao Cai understands Xiao Cai's words.

    He also knew that the Jurchens were the mastermind behind Zhang Jue's rebellion against Jin and Song Dynasty.

    However, it would be of great benefit to Cai Jing's faction not to prevent this matter:

    Only when the imperial court is defeated in this matter can the emperor compare himself and Tong Guan's faction, and be more useful than Gao Li and others.  Therefore, the more the country suffers from Zhang Jue, the more he benefits Cai Jing.

    On the day of Fourteenth, Cai Jing was relieved when he heard that the second child had gone to block Zhang Luo early in the morning, and called the female husband raised at home to sing the song.

    Just halfway through playing the strings and plucking the qin, the old man heard his eldest son, Cai You, who had already lived in another house, hurried in:

    "Have you heard about it?"

    The confidant woman who was serving at the side snickered in her heart: this father and son are a pair of drama lovers, even if there is only the most caring servant woman in front of them, they still don't forget to put on a "discord" appearance.

    Cai Jing retreated from the crowd.

    Cai You told how Zhang Luo listened to what everyone knew about Zhang Luo, how he opened a pirated bookstore, how he was humiliated by Liang Ba, and how he met Guo Xianren in the street and made a fuss.  In the end, the emperor punished Zhang Duzhi in particular, and told his father Cai Jing.

    After Cai Jing listened, he raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and asked knowingly:

    "Did the officials ask her to assist your second brother in handling the matter of Zhang Jue in the Liao Kingdom?"

    "yes."

    After Cai Jing heard this, he endured it for a while, and finally couldn't bear it any longer, then leaned forward and put it next to his son's ear:

    "Go and tell Zhang Bangchang, isn't he going to draw a picture of Mrs. Cui's beauty for His Majesty? Just tell him that the palace has recently acquired a good horse and a good saddle."

    "What does the Great Master mean?"

    Cai Jing rolled his lips: "Then, tell him to accompany Taiwei Gao to present paintings"

    Cai You thought about it for a long time, but he didn't understand what his father's plan was.  But seeing that his father was so proud, he went there half-believing.

    At this time, after the emperor had finished punishing the man, he went to Minghua Pavilion to listen to Li Shishi tune one or two tunes, and watched him dance two dances, still frowning:

    "When it comes to dancing, Yu Nu is the best"

    Zhang Du, who was punished, knew all about it. Hearing this, he immediately sent someone to the Xingxing Bureau and Gao Qiu, who was in charge of the emperor's travel defense, to accompany the emperor out of the palace.

    However, the emperor had just put on his coat, and the queen's palace came to ask for instructions on how to put lights in the palace tonight.  Usually, Zhao Ji's favorite ceremony is the Aoshan Lantern Festival.  Therefore, it was inevitable that the empress would talk for a while.

    Gao Qiu waited for a long time outside the Xuande Gate where the inner palace was connected to the outer palace, but the emperor did not come out.

    "Is the official family not going out?"

    A confidant boy beside him hurriedly came in from the outside, lay beside his ear, and whispered:

    "Master Dian, I heard that Zhang Bangchang drew a picture of Cui Yunu's beauty."

    Gao Qiu asked the boy to keep the wind at the gate of the palace for him. He went to the front of the palace to command the garrison in the palace and called Zhang Bangchang.

    Before Gao Qiu took off his official hat, he heard someone announce "Zhang Bangchang is here", so he pulled off his boots, put his feet close to the brazier and roasted them, without looking up:

    "Old Zhang, where is your new masterpiece?"

    Zhang Bangchang was also well-informed, so he quickly smiled flatteringly, and opened the box with the Longevity word Song Jin pasted in his hand:

    "The villain heard that the palace only got the good horses and saddles and bridles that Xixia entered the palace"

    Gao Qiu didn't listen to these, and directly swept aside the urgent military reports sent to the emperor from various places on the desk, and made room for the painting box.

    Wait until you open the box and unfold the picture to take a look: the picture has just been placed, and it has not had time to frame it. It is two feet long and one and a half feet wide.

    On it is a beautiful woman with a little freehand brushwork and a little fine brushwork. She is pressing a horse outlined in light ink and burnt ink, holding a small melon hammer in her hand, and a scissors bag hanging on the horse's buttocks.  Inside was a whip and a knife handle was exposed.

    "This is?"

    Although Gao Qiu is ignorant, he also guessed that this is the allusion of Wu Meiniang's three trainings on Shizi Cong in the painting.

    Zhang Bangchang quickly covered his mouth, and told about Guo Xianren leading people on the road and reprimanding Zhang Luo for being unrestrained, and then he also said about Zhang Duzhi being punished.

    "This time, eunuch Zhangcan't wait to eat her! Although it is said that only one month's monthly money is gone, what a loss of face it is.?The news quickly spread back to Cai Jing¡¯s family.  This time it was his old political buddy Tong Guan who came back to report.

    "Grand Minister, you are still brilliant! Killing without blood."

    However, Cai Jing pretended to be a blind old man who was eating and drinking.  The third son of the Cai family was in the hall, so he asked Tong Guan for advice.

    Tong Guan laughed triumphantly:

    "Third Brother, have you heard that there is also a 'Lion Cong' in the forbidden area?"

    "Couldn't Shibo say 'Fifteen"?" Cai Sanlang covered his mouth and asked.

    On one side, Cai Jing on the left side of the couch and tea table did not smile. This incident made him confirm one thing: Gao Lian is not an idler.

    This rogue who flattered his superiors by playing football easily defuses the brazier that was piled on his head, and did not become the knife that Cai Jing and Tong Guan deliberately made him be.

    When Tong Guan left triumphantly, Cai Jing said to his third son:

    "Marshal Gao Dian is really not to be underestimated. He is attacking and plotting. It's just poor Mr. Zhang, who was frightened by the officials for nothing."

    ?The two groups of people with the most power and high positions in the upper reaches hold a small accountant and play tricks on each other.  But no one argues that the Jurchens have already mobilized their horses and soldiers, and they are waiting for the Song Dynasty to accept Zhang Jue.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
