Cao's Mansion, the most prominent family in Dayue for decades, is now deserted in front of the door, and almost no officials come here again. With Xu Enmao coming to power, Cao's officials were cleansed, neglected, and leaned aside. Although they were not as bad as the officials of the Fourth Master, compared with the previous hottest, most of the Cao's officials are now idle at home or in some cold yamen. The entire Shangjing is now the world of His Majesty the Emperor.

Unlike most people in the Cao family, Cao Yi was happy. In his own words, he finally had half a day of leisure in his life and could enjoy his life. He stayed in the mansion all day, playing with his family prostitutes and concubines, and enjoying himself.

"Master, I heard from the military headquarters that the court has won a great victory!" The housekeeper Cao Xiang stood beside Cao Yi with his hands down. Seeing Cao Yi in a good mood, he told the news he had just obtained.

"Oh?" Cao Yi turned around and seemed quite interested. "What a big victory?"

"General Cheng attacked with all his might and joined forces with General Xue to defeat Congliang Su Can. Now Congliang's army is besieged in Yinan, Jiangzhou, and I'm afraid it won't last long." Cao Xiang said.

Cao Yi sat upright and pushed away the beautiful concubine who was leaning in her arms, looking quite surprised: "Where is Su Can?"

"Su Can withdrew from Yuzhou and wanted to rescue Congliang, but was defeated by Jiang Guangyu, the general under Cheng Qun. Now he has lost his troops and is in danger. The Fourth Master may be bad." Cao Xiang said.

"So, after Cheng Qun failed in the northwest, he finally decided to bow his head to the emperor honestly?" Cao Yi's face looked a little strange, "Chen Qun was convinced?"

"Current affairs are forced to do so. How can he not admit defeat?" Cao Xiang said with a smile.

Cao Yi pondered for a moment and shook his head. "What do you care about him? Anyway, I am a civilian now. What do I care about doing in these major affairs of the imperial court? I don't care about it anymore, pour wine, pour wine!"

While pouring wine for Cao Yi, Cao Xiang said, "Master, General Cheng is recommended by you. His unjust behavior has also affected the master. This time he can refresh himself, so the master will be fine."

Cao Yi laughed, "Is that simple? Cao Xiang, you are too naive. Cheng Qun's affairs are just an introduction. Without this, Your Majesty will come to me for other things. I must have given up the position of Prime Minister. Even if Cheng Qun comes back, I don't have anything to be happy about."

Cao Xiang thought about it, the prime minister is Xu Enmao now. How can the emperor arrange his master? His master cannot be inferior to Xu Enmao. Thinking of this, the previous excitement passed.

Taking a sip of wine, he turned around a few times in his mouth, and savored it slowly for a while, Cao Yi asked, "I remember being a county magistrate from Weizhou, right?"

"Yes. That's the master's cultivation. He is the county magistrate in Quantong County, Weizhou!" Cao Xiang said with a smile.

"Isn't you involved in my affairs?" Cao Yi asked with a smile, swaying his wine glass.

"How is that possible?" Cao Xiang said: "Although the emperor has almost replaced all the prime ministers in the capital, there are still many of our people in the states and prefectures below. The emperor can't replace all these people, so who else can do things for the court? So my boy is doing well."

Cao Yi laughed and drank the wine in the cup, looking quite proud. How could Xu Enmao compare to his decades of accumulation? Unfortunately, Li Jian was too impatient. If he was still on stage, the situation would not be so embarrassing. Even if he did not stumbling on Xu Enmao at all, he would have been struggling.

The door knocked gently, Cao Xiang put down the wine pot in his hand, walked to the door, whispered a few words, and returned to Cao Yi, "Master, the Ministry of Justice is waiting for Lang Zuo Wenzhong to ask for a meeting with the Prime Minister!"

"Oh?" Cao Yi straightened up and said in surprise: "He wants to see me?"

"It's a bit strange. In the past year, almost no official dared to come to see the master. Why did he come today?" Cao Xiang said.

He waved his hand, "I will meet you when I come. In short, I will go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. When he comes, he may give me some surprises. Invite him in." He stood up and waved his hand to the woman next to him, "You go down!"

Zuo Wenzhong was an official promoted by Li Jian after taking away Li Xiao's confidant Xu Wei. This person had been working in the Ministry of Justice. He was originally a head of the Ministry of Justice. In the Ministry of Justice, he was an official with the kind of technical skills. He never showed any signs of disgrace. After Xu Wei fell, he was promoted by Li Jian because of his outstanding ability.

He is thin and strong, and he can never see a smile on his stern face, and the face of the official of the Ministry of Justice.

Cao Xiang made tea, turned around and left the room, and gently brought it to the door.

"Master Zuo, you are really a rare guest!" Cao Yi smiled on his face, "Come on, try my daughter's fragrance. The new tea I brought in this spring. Now the south rebelled, it is really not easy to get this little daughter's fragrance!"

"Thank you, Prime Minister!" Zuo Wenzhong first offered his hand to thank him, then picked up the tea and drank it all in one gulp. Cao Yi was stunned and regretful. This guy was obviously a guy who was boiling cranes and ignorant of the charm. It was a pity that his daughter was fragrant. If he had known this, he would have used the tea leaves of the servants at home to make him a large pot.

He sighed in his heart, but still had a smile on his face. He picked up the teacup, took a sip, looked at Zuo Wenzhong without saying a word. This guy suddenly came to the door, and there must be something wrong. He wanted to see what he wanted to do?

Zuo Wenzhong drank all the tea in one sip and sat upright. There was nothing unusual on his dark face, but he just didn't say anything.

After both sides waited for a while, Cao Yi finally got the upper hand in curiosity and asked, "Master Zuo has always been not very familiar with me. I guess he came to the door today if there was something wrong?"

"That's right!" Zuo Wenzhong nodded, but he became mute again after nodding.

Cao Yi was annoyed and thought that this was really a lump of wood. It was extremely rare to be able to reach the current position with this temperament. The other party did not respond and had to ask himself.

"I wonder what can trouble Lord Zuo to come to the door in person? Now, my Cao Mansion is just a commoner. I am so excited about the official of the Ministry of Justice like Lord Ji?" Cao Yi said a little sarcastically.

Zuo Wenzhong looked straight at Cao Yi, his tone was not emotional at all, "Someone asked me to bring a word to the prime minister."

Cao Yi narrowed his eyes and became angry. He thought to himself that even if I step down, I will not be bullied by you. He was unhappy and his tone became cold.

"Oh, I wonder who is the master?"

"The person asked me to ask the prime minister, when the coup in Beijing was in Beijing, the prime minister made a choice. Now it seems that he was probably the wrong choice. If he gave the prime minister another chance, who would the prime minister choose?"

Cao Yi was frozen there, and a mouthful of tea was put in his mouth and didn't swallow it. At this moment, it was flowing down the corner of his mouth. He widened his eyes and opened his mouth wide, looking at the official of the Ministry of Justice in front of him who still had a stern face without a trace of expression. He could naturally understand what the other party was saying, but he couldn't understand why this was said from this person's mouth.

After a while, Cao Yi finally came back to his anger, but his heart was surging. As soon as he recovered from awakening, his mind immediately rotated quickly. He gently placed the teacup on the table, covered the lid, and turned around, his face had returned to normal.

"I really didn't expect that you were the Fourth Master's member?" Cao Yi shook his head repeatedly. "Unexpectedly, unexpectedly. Did the Fourth Master ask you to bring these words to me?"

"Yes! The Fourth Master said, the Prime Minister has a chance to choose again!"

"Opportunity?" Cao Yi smiled and said, "Where is the opportunity? Su Can was defeated in Liangjiangzhou, and the Fourth Master was out of power. What's the use of thinking about Cao at this time?"

"Sometimes what you hear may not be true, and even what you see is not true. With the wisdom of the prime minister, even if he is blinded for a while, he may react afterwards, right?" Zuo Wenzhong said.

Cao Yi shook his hand and stared at Zuo Wenzhong tightly. The man also stood up from the chair, "Are you talking about the Jiangzhou victory? By the way, Jiangzhou victory!"

He paced back and forth a few steps in the room, suddenly turned around and looked at Zuo Wenzhong, "Jiangzhou is a bureau, Cheng Qun has defected to the Fourth Master, their real purpose is Xue Chengyi, right?"

"I don't know!" Zuo Wenzhong shook his head, "The Fourth Master asked me to bring these words to the Prime Minister, and I know these."

Cao Yi was in a state of confusion for a moment. He knew that most of the things he had guessed were true. Li Xiao said that he surrendered Cheng Qun and set up a huge situation in Jiangzhou. Once Xue Chengyi was annihilated, the gateway to Beijing would be opened.

"Is the Fourth Master not afraid that I will reveal his great secret?" He sneered and looked at Zuo Wenzhong, "Once Xue Chengyi is prepared, the Fourth Master will be in great difficulty!"

"The Prime Minister doesn't know!"

"How do you know!"

"The Fourth Master said this, and the Fourth Master also said that after he entered Beijing, he needed you to assist him in governing the government. So I hope you can make the right choice this time!" Zuo Wenzhong stood up.

"Chen Qun and the families of his generals are all in Beijing. Aren't they afraid of their family being destroyed?"

"This Jiangzhou victory, His Majesty the Emperor must be overjoyed. The surveillance of the families of these generals will inevitably relax. Our people are ready to go, and within these few days, they will take away all the families of this general!"

"The families of the 200,000 troops of the four guards are mostly around Shangjing!" Cao Yi sneered.

"Twenty-hundred thousand guards, there are at least six hundred thousand families!" Zuo Wenzhong said: "Can the emperor kill him? Do you dare to kill him? Even if he wants to kill him, the court officials will not agree!"

Looking at the determined Zuo Wenzhong, Cao Yi was upset, "Okay, I understand, you go back first!"

"What does the prime minister mean?"

"I'll let you go back!" Cao Yi said angrily: "I have to think about it, think about it."
