Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 165 Chapter 171: Cao Tian
Feiying replied: "Return to Master, he is waiting for your reply."

Li Hao raised his eyebrows and said, "Tell him to go back and tell Cao Tian that you don't have to go to the restaurant, but go to Cao Tian's house to eat. Let Mrs. Cao cook for herself, just cook some home-cooked food."

"Yes." Feiying nodded in acceptance, turned around and went out to answer.

When Lu Yungang heard Li Hao's words, he was slightly startled at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt relieved, smiled and gave Li Hao a thumbs up: "The young master is indeed courageous, courageous and resourceful."

"So-so." Li Hao waved his hands and pretended to smile, "I don't believe it. He dares to act rashly when eating at his house. Besides, I will bring all the people there."

More than half an hour later, Li Hao went to the courtyard to look at the sky. The sun was sinking in the west, and the afterglow was like gold. He beckoned: "Call the people and go to Cao's house for dinner!"

As night fell, Li Hao arrived outside Cao Tian's house with 500 guards. The [-] people surrounded Cao's house in a semi-arc shape. Cao Tian who was standing at the door narrowed his eyes when he saw this, A cold light burst out of his eyes.

Li Hao got off his horse and strode to the gate of Cao Mansion. Cao Tian brought everyone in his family to salute together, and said in unison: "I pay my respects to Lord Inspector."

Li Hao stepped forward with a smile all over his face and said, "Excuse me, Cao Biejia is too polite, too polite." Then he helped Cao Tian up, and the two of them met and looked at each other closely. I saw Cao Tian was smiling with no depth, and Li Hao was also smiling, looking in a good mood. Two people who wanted to put each other to death met for the first time so peacefully and harmoniously, which made Li Hao on the side Yuan Zhong, Peng Hai, Jin Li and the others couldn't help wondering if their eyes were wrong.

From their point of view, the style of painting is very harmonious, but Li Hao doesn't think so. Although he just glanced at it, he seemed to see a ferocious beast. This beast has fangs and claws like a tiger, but it is stronger than a fox. Cunning, even a movie king who can win a statuette, can't see anything strange about him.

At this moment, Cao Tian's heart was not at peace. Before seeing Li Hao, he had heard that Li Hao was a boy who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old. Digging a few corners of himself, but not getting into the details, he was very accurate, including this time when Li Hao went to the banquet, which also surprised him. He brought five hundred guards with him for a meal, not only putting pressure on himself, but also ensuring his own safety. An An, was showing his tough attitude and strength to the people of Tingzhou again, "This is a tough opponent!" This was Cao Tian's inner evaluation of Li Hao.

The two uttered a few nonsensical clichés hypocritically, and then entered the courtyard, Jin Li followed with Lu Damao.

In the living room, Li Hao asked Jin Li and Lu Damao to wait outside, while he entered the living room alone. Seeing this, Cao Tian asked the others to retreat, and followed Li Hao into the living room.

Two long tables have been arranged in the hall, one is in the east and the other is in the west. There is no distinction between host and guest, and no distinction between high and low. The tables are full of wine and vegetables, which are very rich. Li Hao was a little surprised by the sumptuous dishes on the two tables. He sat down quickly, and said with a smirk: "Cao Biejia really has a rich family, and he can set up such a sumptuous banquet in Tingzhou. It even has bear paws and deer lips, which really opened my eyes, haha."

Faced with Li Hao's sarcasm, Cao Tian's face remained unchanged, and he said with a light smile: "For a lowly position, it is a big thing to serve a good man, even if you spend all your wealth."

If you meet other officials, you might not find anything wrong with this scene, but Li Hao didn't buy it, and said coldly: "Don't make a mistake, Cao. When I was in Chang'an, I often heard Mr. Wei, the attendant, say: the people are the most important thing. The society is second, the king is the lightest, the people are the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, being an official is not to flatter the superiors, but to benefit the people, I hope Cao Biejia will take it as a warning."

"Yes, I would like to follow the instructions of the humble class." Cao Tian nodded slightly, although his attitude was respectful, there was an imperceptible sneer at the corner of his mouth.

The two sat down separately, and Li Hao quietly tried the wine with a silver needle in his hand, and it was all right. At this moment, Cao Tian raised his glass to toast him: "Master Li, you traveled all the way to Tingzhou. I would like to use this glass of wine to clean up the dust for adults."

"Hehe." Li Hao smiled lightly, and raised his glass, "I have been in Tingzhou for three days, and no matter how big the dust is, it is Cao Biejia. I am really busy. I have been here for three days. You He just came back from the outside, and it should be Cao Biejia who is full of travel and dust." After speaking, he picked up the wine glass and drank it down, Nima, it turned out to be made by an immortal, and he drank it hard.

Unable to lose his momentum, Li Hao swallowed a mouthful of strong wine forcibly, tears were about to flow out, at this time, Cao Tian also finished his drink, put down his glass and said, "The humble job is out of the city for a private matter, and adults laughed at me. "Of course he didn't dare to say that he was going out of the city on business, because he would be questioned by Li Hao, but this time he left Tingzhou, he went to Gaochang, met his contact person in Jiaohe City, and sent the gold and silver he brought along with him. Gift of jewelry.Although he can be domineering in Tingzhou, in front of Gaochang, he is just a dog. Naturally, he must try his best to please his master and show his loyalty, so that the master will protect him.

Li Hao just smiled lightly when he heard the words, and quietly tried the dishes with silver needles. When he found that there was no problem, he began to eat with vegetables. Many affairs, Cao Biejia has worked hard."

"Don't dare to do it." Cao Tianqian said with a smile, "This is all a matter of humble duty."

"That's a mistake." Li Hao put down his chopsticks, raised his eyebrows and said, "This is at most a post, how can it be said that it is your job, is it that your job is to deal with the affairs that the governor should handle? , where should I put this official?"

Cao Tian frowned slightly when he heard the words. Seeing Li Hao being so merciless, he didn't bother to make up his smile anymore, and said with a straight face: "My lord, the former governor died in the line of duty, and the imperial court has not sent someone to take over for a long time. Tingzhou Although it is small, there are more than 2 people, do you want to keep watching the people being ungoverned and watching Tingzhou go into chaos?"

Li Hao raised his hand and said, "It's not wrong for you to act as the governor. What I mean is that there is something wrong with your statement. You are only temporarily serving. All affairs, big or small, are decided by this official.”

Cao Tian squinted his eyes when he heard the words, Li Hao was taking an oath of sovereignty, since Li Hao took the lead in piercing the layer of window paper, he didn't bother to pretend to be a subordinate, so he said coldly: "That's why the lord whipped the right as soon as he took office. Guoyi Captain Wang Yuantai? Resign Zuo Guoyi Captain Yunmeng? My lord, Tingzhou is the court's Tingzhou, not your own Tingzhou."

Li Hao almost burst out laughing when he heard this sentence. Is this a line he can say? It's the other way around.Li Hao forcibly held back his smile, nodded and said: "This is what I want to remind Cao Biejia, Tingzhou is not up to you alone."

Cao Tian raised his eyebrows and said, "With adults in Tingzhou, humble positions are nothing."

"Hehe." Li Hao took a sip of his wine, slowly drank his glass, and said, "Don't drive, Cao, people don't say dark words, and it's no fun for us to go around so many circles. Let me clarify the words, you This official is aware of everything he has done in Tingzhou over the years."

After he finished speaking, he stared at Cao Tian without blinking, to see his reaction, Cao Tian really had a little concentration, but he didn't change his face, he also took a sip of wine, and asked with a light smile: "Then how will your lord deal with the humble job? "

"Don't talk about disposition." Li Hao waved his hand and said, "Bie Cao, you're talking too much. In fact, being an official is just to get rich. If you want to benefit the people, just fool those fools, so what? Can it be true?"

"Oh?" Cao Tian immediately became interested when he heard the words, and asked tentatively, "What does your lord mean... you want to partner with Cao?"

"I can't get along with you." Li Hao rolled his eyes, waved his hands and said, "Your methods are too low-handed, and it's too stupid to fish in a dry lake."

Cao Tian was annoyed by his evaluation, frowned, and asked, "Then what exactly do you mean, my lord?"

Li Hao tapped on the table with five fingers, made a sound, and said with a smile: "Since I am here, you will have nothing to do in this Tingzhou. Go ahead and do whatever you want. You have earned enough in these years." , it's time to rest."

Cao Tian frowned: "My lord, your eating...is a bit too ugly."

"Is it ugly?" Li Hao raised his eyebrows and asked with a joking smile, "Let me tell you something even uglier. If I write your deeds as a memorial and send them back to Chang'an, after your Majesty reads them, maybe I will send you to check them out. Your family property, when the time comes, I can make a lot of money again, how about it, isn't this eating appearance even uglier?"

Cao Tian laughed dryly when he heard the words, but he scolded Li Hao in his heart. Although he was angry, he couldn't show it. He could only say helplessly: "Your Excellency is really a good means. You can't do it without admiration for a humble job."

Li Hao laughed, and said with high spirits: "So I can take the position of the governor, and you are almost 40 years old, and you are just a little girl."

This is a bit hurtful to say, because this has always been a scar in Cao Tian's heart, how much he wants to be the governor of Tingzhou, so that he can really do whatever he wants in Tingzhou.However, how many governors of Tingzhou have been changed, and the court doesn't even mention him, which makes him very depressed. Now Li Hao still speaks so bluntly and hurts people, it hurts his heart.

Cao Tian clenched and loosened his left hand hidden under the desk several times, suppressing the anger in his heart, and even pretended to be calm and calm. This acting skill is also remarkable.

After Li Hao said the hurtful words, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't drive Cao, you can listen to what I'm saying. In Tingzhou in the future, restrain yourself, don't let me catch you again." Little braid."

Cao Tian suppressed his anger and nodded: "I understand the humble job." He had to give in for the time being. On the face of it, Li Hao is his boss and the highest official in Tingzhou. It's easy to hide with a gun, but it's hard to defend against an arrow. If you can't fight head-on, then stab a knife in the back, and he will stab Li Hao hard in the back tonight.

The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the governor's mansion was very quiet, except for two lanterns hung by the door of the inner courtyard, and there were lights on in a few rooms, which were the rooms of the four female relatives of Li Hao's family.

Countless black shadows flew over the low courtyard wall, sneaked into the governor's mansion, and gathered towards the inner courtyard. When they approached the inner courtyard, they could be seen clearly with the help of the faint light. Wearing black clothes, covered with a black cloth, holding a weapon, those sharp weapons give off a piercing cold light in the dim moonlight, the shadows of four women are reflected on the window, some are practicing calligraphy, some are embroidering, they seem to be No danger was found to be approaching.
