Meeting an old friend on the road

Pang Ji was very proud: "Prime Minister, what did those corrupt scholars say during the morning court today? They also knew that Pang Xi was my person, didn't he react?"

Pang Ji himself cannot attend court yet. Even though he knows some general situations, he still has to rely on Lu Yijian for the key figure's reaction at that time.

Lu Yijian sighed deeply, with a sad expression, which surprised Pang Ji: "Is it wrong?"

Lu Yijian said, "Everything is the same as what we planned. Those gentlemen did not think about making a fuss about this matter at all. They must have thought in their hearts that even if Chen Shimei and Pang Xi are our people, they can't do it too well after doing this good thing. Now Fan Zhongyan is posing for waiting for the beating, which really makes me bored."

After hearing this, Chen Yuan had roughly understood the current situation in the court. People like Fan Zhongyan and Ouyang Xiu would definitely not think that Pang Ji sent Pang Xi to Liao with him to make the Liao Kingdom like this just because of an accident. They knew that Pang Ji must have a backup plan waiting to kill him.

At this time, there are two most effective ways to protect them. One is to abandon the car and protect the coach, and take the initiative to report to Renzong to deal with Song Qi. The other is to discredit himself, make his reputation smell bad before he comes back, and first set a plaque of "bad guy" for himself in Renzong's heart.

But Fan Zhongyan and others would neither abandon the car to protect the coach nor attack him. The reason is very simple, they are all gentlemen.

Pang Ji laughed: "This is the case with Mr. Fan. Just like the last time I knocked him down, I was so stubborn and a little cute. Didn't the emperor say anything in the court when he asked Chen Shimei?"

Chen Yuan was shocked: "The emperor asked me?"

Lu Yijian said: "Of course, this time you made the Liao Kingdom like this, and the people have spread all over the people. The news of ***'s return has not yet dispersed. I guess it will not be so convenient for you to go out tomorrow. The emperor also asked you about your situation in front of all the civil and military officials of the court. Then Ouyang Xiu actually spoke nonsense and said that you are just a peddler who does not seek to be ambitious."

Chen Yuan gently rubbed his nose. Although Ouyang Xiu's evaluation of himself was biased, he was not much different.

Lu Yijian suddenly looked at Chen Yuan with a deep sense, and then said, "But Bao Heizi is willing to protect those corrupt scholars. Bao Heizi said that the world's most beautiful top scholar is not inferior to Song Qi. He can take on important responsibilities as a person, and loyalty, integrity and integrity can be entrusted to major events."

Chen Yuan almost sprayed out the wine he drank, and was very surprised! He didn't know if what Lao Bao said was true or false. Lao Bao looked at him like this? Or did he say a few good words out of his gratitude to him after he rescued Zhang Kuangzheng? No matter what the reason, it is always right to establish a good impression in Lao Bao's heart. Chen Yuan wanted to laugh a little, an unconscious and unreasonable smile from the heart.

When Pang Ji heard Bao Zheng say this, he also understood the meaning of it. He intended to protect Fan Zhongyan and others. The contempt on his face suddenly turned: "Prime Minister, if Bao Heizi really intervenes, then things will be really troublesome!"

Lu Yijian smiled and shook his head: "Is the Grand Master afraid of Bao Zheng?"

Of course Pang Ji was afraid! The reason why he was afraid of Bao Zheng was very simple, that is, Bao Zheng was more open than Xia Shu, so that Pang Ji could not grasp any of the slightest. He knew how to adapt to Fan Zhongyan, and Bao Zheng would never say those useless words, and would never jump into the pit that Pang Ji dug. He was more rigorous than Ouyang Xiu.

Now all the important officials have experienced ups and downs. Xia Shu, Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu, and Lu Yijian have experienced ups and downs, including Pang Ji, even if he had a daughter in the palace, he almost finished several times.

Only Bao Zheng, although he could not say that he was rising straight, he stepped forward step by step, and his solidity was unique in the Renzong Dynasty.

So Pang Ji didn't want to provoke Bao Zheng. When he heard Lu Yijian ask this, he immediately asked back: "Are we going to ask Bao Heizi and explore his bottom line?"

Lu Yijian smiled and said, "Will you just invite him to come at the birthday party of the Grand Master in five days?"

Pang Ji thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, Chen Shimei, five days later will be my birthday, and the emperor will come when it comes. I will arrange a suitable opportunity to let the emperor see you. With your actions this time, you will definitely be reused."

Chen Yuan sighed in his heart that this might be a very enviable thing to others, but Chen Yuan didn't care. After the Liao Dynasty and his party, he had become extremely tired of political and power struggles, and he was not interested in participating in the struggle between Pang Ji, Lu Yijian, Fan Zhongyan, and Xia Shu.

He wanted to go home, but now everything was relatively stable. He went back to pick up Chen Shimei's parents, Qin Xianglian, and the two oil bottles that Chen Shimei dragged down. Then he built a villa, married Linghua and Hu Jing and came in, and the whole family lived happily together.

I'll give some gifts to the two old guys in front of me. If you have any trouble, please ask them to help. Of course, Ouyang Xiu and others don't offend them. Then they trained those Jurchens as bodyguards to suppress those gangsters. No one will bully him in the future! If you think there are few people in your family, you can have a few babies, and if you think your wife is not enough, you can go and have a few girls. In this way, what else can your husband ask for?

"Taishi, I may not be able to come to the birthday party anymore. I want to go back to Junzhou and go home to check it out. To be honest, I haven't been home for two years, and I even have to worry about it in my heart." Chen Yuan said softly.

Pang Ji was stunned at the time. Chen Yuan was obviously a rude word. Even if you are anxious, can you still not wait in the past few days? Old Pang's eyes floated towards Lu Yijian, and Lu Yijian smiled: "Since Shimei misses home, let's arrange to go back as soon as possible. Without Shimei here, isn't there Pang Xi still there? Let's do the same thing."

Seeing Lu Yijian say this, Chen Yuan hurriedly stood up and thanked: "Thank you, Prime Minister!"

Pang Ji naturally didn't want to say anything else, so he raised his glass and said, "Okay, then don't force Shimei. Come on, let's drink and celebrate Shimei and Pang Xi's safe return!"

The five people picked up the cups at the same time and drank them all in one go.

When Chen Yuan left the Grand Tutor's Mansion, he was in a very comfortable mood. Lao Pang agreed to help with the land, so he could naturally handle it. Tomorrow, he arranged the matter of Bianjing, mainly Amuda's barbecue restaurant and Han Qi's wine shop. It would be best to run these two together.

Then you can prepare to go home.

When I pick up Qin Xianglian, the nightmare that coiled around my heart will end. No need to worry about Bao Zheng anymore!

The carriage was walking slowly on the street, and the speed was not very fast.

Chen Yuan poked his head out of the car window and looked at the bustling night market in Bianjing, and couldn't help but feel proud: "It won't take long. The most lively food stall in Bianjing night market must be his own barbecue restaurant!"

Fantasizing about the prosperous scene of guests on a table dozens of times a day, Chen Yuan's mouth slowly wafted with smiles.

He just wants to do business, and people say that everything is inferior, but Chen Yuan is interested in inferior. When people live, they must live happily.

The carriage suddenly braked suddenly, and Chen Yuan was caught off guard and thrust out of the seat cushion. He was about to fall off the carriage. Fortunately, the handlebars were fast enough to pull Chen Yuan away: "Shopkeeper, aren't you hurting you?"

The handlebar sound was a little frightened, and Chen Yuan's original anger subsided. He suddenly remembered the time he saw Lu Yijian in Xiangguo Temple. These people who drove the car were actually just coolies living at the bottom.

After patting his knee that was touched, Chen Yuan said softly: "You should also watch it when you are driving the car. It's okay, let's go."

The handlebar style breathed a sigh of relief: "Shopkeeper, it's not that I don't look at the road, it's because this guy rushed out too quickly!"

Only then did Chen Yuan see a man lying on the ground in a smell of alcohol, thinking about trying to stand up.

"You didn't touch him, did you?" Seeing that the man didn't stand up a few times, Chen Yuan was a little worried.

The handlebar type said busy, "No! Everyone on both sides are watching, but they are still half a horse-body away!"

While he was hesitating whether he should go down to check, seven or eight strong men suddenly rushed out of the restaurant next to him, pressing the drunk man down and punching him!

The man's body rolled on the ground with the legs and feet of the strong men, and he couldn't even stand up. However, the strong men were still resolutely and scolded while beating: "You dare to come to drink if you didn't bring any money? I think you are tired of living! I won't give you some colors today, and you will come next time!"

Chen Yuan is no longer the Chen Yuan he was. He was very calm in the face of such a scene. He was hesitant to help the drunkard, or leave now?

At this time, a guy with a big belly and a round waist walked out of the restaurant. Maybe it was the boss or the shopkeeper. He looked at the strong men who were beating and shouted: "Don't beat him to death! Just break his legs!"

When Chen Yuan heard this, he let out a long sip of alcohol and shouted at the man: "Brother, stop first."

As he said that, he jumped out of the carriage.

The man glanced at Chen Yuan: "What are you?"

Chen Yuan smiled and pointed to the drunk man: "I will help him with how much alcohol he has drunk."

When the man heard this, he nodded: "Okay, but I advise you not to be troublesome. This guy doesn't know at all. In the past, when people used to drink with me, people often paid for him, but whoever paid for him was he beat him! Be careful."

Chen Yuan was shocked when he heard this. Who would help him pay for him and beat him? There are still people like this?

The man had already fallen to the ground and could not move. Blood was scattered around him. Chen Yuan carefully leaned over and stood in a distance: "Brother Tai? Brother Tai?"

The man moved his hand, but it didn't get up. It seemed that he was too seriously injured. Chen Yuan approached and flipped him over. When he turned over, Chen Yuan was shocked: "Master Chai! Why are you?"

Chai Yang was covered in filth, his eyes were covered with red blood, staring at Chen Yuan without saying a word. Chen Yuan hurriedly greeted the handlebars: "Hurry, come and help me help him," Before he finished speaking, he suddenly punched Chen Yuan's waist, and Chen Yuan was beaten and rolled twice in a row.
