Chapter 663: Deceiving the World and Stealing the Fame

Bianjing City suddenly became quiet, but behind the quietness, there were hidden waves surging. Several neighbors where official houses gathered were all closed, and occasionally a few servants would hurry in and out.

Recently, Bianjing is too strange. The big guys from all aspects have been silent at this time, carefully collecting any useful news.

Li Bangyan is undoubtedly an alternative. The Left Chief of the Shangshu who had just recovered was undoubtedly the biggest one. In the afternoon of that day, he went to visit Shi Ying first and met King Jin the next day. King Jin had the best Cuju. He had a very happy conversation with him, but it was quite happy. It is said that the always unrestrained King Jin actually sent Li Bangyan out of the mansion himself, and even Cai Jing could not earn this face.

In the afternoon of that day, Li Bangyan, who had only rested at home for an hour, brought gifts to Duke Qi's mansion to visit.

Such high-profileness is in line with his style of Li Langzi. He can understand all kinds of interactions.

But on the third day, Li Bangyan was idle. The news leaked from his mansion that he was going to visit King Pingxi today, but the day was changed because the gift he prepared was not satisfactory. Li Langzi gave gifts the most in line with others' wishes. It is said that he could not understand his preference for King Pingxi, so he changed the gift he chose several times, but he felt that it was not satisfactory.

This kind of intention alone is enough to show Li Langzi's importance to King Pingxi. King Pingxi was moody and didn't know what he would think. But if someone else had changed, he would definitely look at this Wangzi differently. With such great effort and the gift was not delivered, this kind of intention alone would be enough to make people feel close to him.

Li Bangyan's mansion is actually not big. In addition, he returned from observing the system and only repaired it a little, so it seemed very simple. Fortunately, although Li Langzi knew all kinds of religions, he was also an elegant person. Especially in this spring-filled sky, many orchids and peonies planted in the house, which bloomed at this time, and there was an indescribable dazzling look.

It is said that even the Princess of Jin had come here to borrow flower seeds.

The area near the gatehouse is a large area of ​​Cuju venue, with fine sand spreading in the field, and five Jukes are practicing Cuju. Li Langzi's Cuju team is worthy of the titles throughout Bianjing. Many princes and ministers who like Cuju often come here to watch them practice with Li Langzi.

Further inside, it seems quiet. There is a archway inside. There is only one good word written on it on the archway. The running script is thick and it has a bit of a great aura. This is naturally written by Li Bangyan. Although Li Bangyan's running script is a bit inferior to a big expert like Shen Ao and Cai Jing, he is also of great significance in Bianjing.

Behind the archway is a lined attic, blocked by lush trees, revealing a little clue, making it difficult to tell whether it is the attic hidden in the trees or the trees hidden in the attic, with indescribable elegance.

The servants here are very disciplined and have the style of everyone. They always walk on tiptoe and never whisper. It can be seen that although Li Bangyan has become a little more unruly, his tutoring is rigorous.

At this time, an old servant hurriedly passed through the archway, stopped at the entrance of a hall, and called out: "Master..."

A voice inside said, "Come in."

Li Bangyan was wearing a regular dress today. Although he was mid-year-old, there was a handsome aura between his eyebrows. He lifted a tea lid and lowered his head to drink tea. He couldn't help but tsk, and slowly stretched between his eyebrows and said to the old servant who came in: "Wuyi Rock Tea is indeed well-known. If you inform the tea room later, I will drink this tea."

The old servant smiled and said, "This tea was brought by the fast horse from Quanzhou. The master wanted to drink it. The old slave then ordered and asked someone to send more horses. There were also some sales in Bianjing City, but the taste was a little worse. Unless you go to Suiya Mountain House, the tea there is one-rate.

Li Bangyan smiled and said, "Stop saying these gossips, have you collected all the paintings I want?"

The old servant said, "I collected twenty-three paintings in total, but they are worth a lot of money. There is a picture of a lady, which is worth more than 5,300 guan. In total, these paintings cost at least 30,000 guan."

For people like Li Bangyan, 30,000 yuan is not much or less. He smiled and said, "The money is just to withdraw directly from the account, and then ask someone to buy it. The same thing is, how much is it and how much is it, you don't have to care about the money."

A hint of reluctance flashed in the old servant's eyes and said, "Master, I spent so much money to collect the paintings of King Pingxi and then send them back. Is the King Pingxi really happy? I am afraid that the silver will be spent, but I can't impress others. Besides, the Master is the Left Chief of the Shangshu. No matter how noble the King Pingxi is, he will not be so flattered."

The old servant was obviously Li Bangyan's confidant, otherwise he would not dare to say these words. Li Bangyan took a sip of tea without hesitation and said with a smile: "I took these paintings to increase the value of King Pingxi's paintings. Will anyone be unhappy if the value of his own goods has increased?" Then, he smiled coldly and said: "The King Pingxi will not be able to be flattered. Now he and Cai Jing have not yet seen each other. At this time, I will go to pay a visit to the King Pingxi's mind to the most. Besides, Cai Jing's death is not far away, and Cai Jing is defeated. Who else can this person who has a word of the Song Dynasty?"

The old servant said in surprise: "Isn't the official?"

Li Bangyan smiled and said, "Outside, of course, the government is the largest, and every word is the most important! But when we close our doors, Shen Ao is the largest, and the holy family is like this. The government obeys Shen Ao's will. The government is in the deep palace, so how can we know what it looks like outside? It's not that what Shen Ao said is what? It means that the deer is a horse, and the deer is a real horse."

After pausing, Li Bangyan continued: "Cai Jing was defeated, and the official family must find someone to take charge of government affairs. Shen Ao failed. He is the King of Pingxi and is in charge of military and horses. Even if the official family issued an order, he would definitely refuse. There are only a few people who are qualified to replace Cai Jing. I am one of them, but unfortunately, I just returned from observing the system. Your Majesty may not have thought that as for Duke Wei County Shi Ying, he is the founding duke. Logically, he will be in the end and the rest of the few will not be able to enter the Secretariat. Even if he is pulled up, he will be driven down sooner or later. If I want to enter the door, it will not be possible without Shen Ao." He smiled slightly and said: "The King of Jin is a way, and the Queen Mother's side will not be a problem. Now there is a lack of King of Pingxi."

Li Bangyan took a leisurely sip of Wuyi Rock Tea and smiled faintly: "I was very unhappy when I was in the mourning system. Now I think it's not a loss for the past three years of dormancy. The King of Pingxi emerged so quickly. I can't say when I offend him. I'm afraid I will follow the footsteps of Wang Fu. I'm not right now? This is the luck, and it's time for me, a prodigal son, to taste the addiction of the chief minister."

When the old servant heard him say with great enthusiasm, he understood the relationship here no matter how confused he was. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will collect as much as I can."

Li Bangyanhe nodded, put down the teacup, and said, "There is another thing. Instruct the people in the mansion to be careful these days, don't cause trouble, and don't say much to others, especially those of the Cai family, the farther away, the better."

The old servant said, "Don't worry, Master, I will continue to give instructions, and I will never ruin the master's affairs."

Li Bangyan smiled and when the old servant left, he couldn't help but hum the words from the city: "Who once said, "I am so heartless, I want to run to the river and fall..."

Li Bangyan's movement made the whole Bianjing know. After hearing the news, Liu Sheng also went to An Ning excitedly to say that An Ning frowned, with a faint blush on his face, and said, "This Li Bangyan is so intentional. Why does his husband say that this man is a thief? Why is he the leader of the traitor, the most evil person."

Zhenzhen smiled beside her and said, "I heard that this man was very angry. In the past, he was a famous person in Bianjing. Many people said that he was a good person."

Tang Mo'er frowned and said, "It's not certain, which one of the traitors and evil people is a bad person?"

Chun'er was operating Suiya Mountain House outside. At this time, he was most opinionated and said, "I have heard of this person. Many scholars in Suiya Mountain House have also mentioned him, saying that he is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has also learned the skills of playing and dancing, playing football and singing in the streets and alleys. He also likes to make friends with scholars who come to Beijing to take the exam. Juren from his hometown will visit him when they come to Beijing." Chun'er frowned and continued, "However, this person has made too many friends. So many people brag about him, but in my opinion, he looks like a sensational person."

After hearing this, the girls pursed their lips and said, "Why is it so popular that they are so famous?"

Chun'er said seriously: "I guessed this."

"Chun'er was not wrong!" It was just when the girls were laughing, but Shen Ao came at some point and said with a smile: "Everyone in this world praises them often are traitors and evil people. A true gentleman does not spread to the outside world or exaggerate, how many people know?"

When the girls saw that Shen Ao was coming, they giggled and An Ning said, "Why did your husband say such things? Could it be that there is something wrong with it?"

Shen Ao said with a stern face: "Of course it makes sense. I have done so many good things and have been scolded so much that I am still scolded. Good people are regarded as rats crossing the street. That bad person is naturally a very good person in the eyes of those ignorant people."

Everyone laughed again.

Shen Ao didn't have much to do with Li Bangyan, but he just vaguely remembered that although this person's fame was not as good as Cai Jing, it was the greatest harm to the Northern Song Dynasty. After Cai Jing, Wang Fu was the prime minister, and then Li Bangyan defeated Wang Fu and became the prodigal prime minister. At this time, the Jin people had already killed the city of Bianjing, and the prodigal prime minister transformed into the leader of the surrender faction. He did not want to resist and bribed the Jin people wholeheartedly, and the entire Northern Song Dynasty was ruined.

Chen Ao naturally didn't bother to pay attention to such a villain. Now he heard that Li Bangyan's reputation had been introduced to his family. He was quite unhappy. He talked a few nonsense before saying, "It's past noon, I have to go to the palace." After that, he got up and wanted to leave.

An Ning asked, "Why, did your father summon you into the palace?"

Chen Ao shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm idle and have nothing to do, go and have a walk." Of course, he wouldn't tell An Ning that he had already set the time. The second impeachment memorial of Xinghua Army had arrived. After noon, it happened to be the time when Zhao Ji was reading the memorial. When he went in, Chen Ao had been planning for a long time.

After coming from home, I saw that it was already a little late, so I rushed to Zhengdemen and went straight in. I stopped the horse not far from Wenjing Pavilion, and handed it over to an eunuch to take care of it. I went straight to the audience.

Zhao Ji was picking up the memorials in Wenjing Pavilion. When he read them, he had just browsed them a little. He finally got a little bit of energy a few days ago, but now he was suddenly relieved. However, he had to read the memorials of impeachment seriously. Although Zhao Ji was lazy, he knew that he had too much authority to release. If he didn't even read the memorials of impeachment, he, as the emperor, would really be in the dark.

Another impeachment memorial of Xinghua Army, Zhao Ji couldn't help but frown, his eyes attracted to the memorial, picked it up, opened it and looked at it, it read: "I am the teacher, Duan Hai, the military officer, reported to the news that the internal tyrant Cai Tao, was instructed by the rogues in the street to beat three innocent people to death, which was outrageous. The matter involved in the Grand Tutor, was not daring to be adept at. I beg Your Majesty to be arbitrary."

Zhao Ji frowned and couldn't help saying, "It's the Cai family again."

I threw the memorial aside and seemed a little irritated. I had no interest in reading the impeachment memorial later.

At this time, the eunuch came in and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the King of Pingxi will meet you."

Zhao Ji's eyebrows slowly unfolded and said, "Let him come in."

Chen Aokuo walked in, looked at the memorial, and then said, "I deserve to die. Your Majesty is diligent in government affairs, but he comes to bother you. Please forgive me."

Zhao Ji smiled and waved, "Come on, sit down and talk."
