Capture the Beast

Chapter 46: Inexplicable Socializing

On the way to the capital, everything was safe. Besides, with the vast array of this brigade, no thief came to provoke trouble. The old emperor has already sent people to send news to the capital and arranged a gorgeous mansion for Bingying to live in.

So as soon as he arrived in the capital, the old emperor asked someone to take Bingying to visit, and he had his own court affairs to deal with. Besides, he could not let too many people know that he had made a private visit, so he returned to the palace with other entourage, and Bingying's side will be passed on later.

Consides, not many people know about Bingying's sealing, because the emperor has not officially summoned her or officially issued a decree. Unexpectedly, officials in the capital have already received the news and came to congratulate them. And those who raised their eyebrows and became rich because of Bingying prepared generous gifts waiting for the arrival of their superiors in the 'God's House'.

As soon as Bingying and her party's carriage arrived at the divine arresting house, they saw officials of large and small gathered at the gate of the house, and of course, arresters in new official uniforms. Ye Bing and Leng Rong didn't seem to see these people, and only opened the curtain to let Bingying and the two maids get out of the carriage.

When Bingying saw this battle, she was stunned first, and then understood. These people are officials, and they must have their own connections. They know best what the emperor has done. Well, I immediately came to flatter. She was so disgusted that she wanted to pretend that she couldn't see these people and went straight into the house.

At this time, a short fat man with an oily head and a face full of fat came over first, and a pair of mung bean-like eyes stared straight at Bingying, and almost flowed down. He offered a generous gift with his hands flatteringly, and his fat cheeks trembled with a smile and the wriggling of his lips: "This must be the legendary beautiful Ximen catcher. Yang Ping, a servant of the Ministry of Household, has seen the Ximen catcher. This small gift is not respectable. Please accept it."

His mother, isn't this Ximen Bingying too pretious? Coupled with the power of Dongliu Villa behind her and the favor of the emperor, it is a piece of cake. If he can marry such a daughter-in-law and go home, he will live for ten years, drive all his concubines out of the house, and treat her as a cow and horse! Yang Ping has been overgrily because of the endless fantasies in his mind, and his smile is even more obscene.

"A subordinate?" Bingying looked at him with a smile. It turned out to be a servant of the household. No wonder he was fed like a fat pig. She hooked her lips and said, "Ximen Bingying really dare not be. You are the emperor's minister, but I have no reputation. How can I be worthy of your humble reputation as a 'lower official'? As for this gift, I think my father has given me enough things. You'd better take it back to honor your parents.

With that, Bingying turned her head and ordered Xiaoxing Xiaoren, "Move things into the house. No one else can enter without my permission!" She has seen a lot of flattery. She has experienced, heard, and occasionally seen it on TV, so how can Yang Ping deceive her with this little trick?

Watching that the master wanted to turn a blind eye to the visitors and leave, so many officials waited here with gifts for a long time, and they were also a little dissatisfied. However, they are now the big red man in front of the emperor. They are so arrogant that what they can do?

Ye Bing still separated Yang Ping and Bingying and whispered to Bingying, "Miss, there should be a scene in the officialdom. Miss can't offend too many people. As the saying goes, guns are easy to hide, and hidden arrows are difficult to prevent. Miss must not easily make enemies for herself.

Therefore, Ximen Dongliu endured the pain and arranged Ye Bing to be with his daughter after careful consideration. After all, Ye Bing has seen a lot of the world, and there are also many friends in the world, and no matter what happens, he can deal with it coldly. And his daughter is different. She has lived in snowy mountains since she was a child and has not fully understood the affairs of the world, and the deception in this officialdom is even more unclear. If you inadvertently offend someone, you will definitely be retaliated by the villain, but with Ye Bing by her side, he is much more relieved.

Bingying looked at Ye Bing's slightly nervous appearance with a smile. She didn't intend to offend so many officials. What she said just now was just for Yang Ping. She originally planned to go to the door of the house and invite everyone in as the host. After all, it was a little rude to stand in front of the carriage and speak. If Yang Ping hadn't made her unhappy, she would have invited everyone to the house by now.

"I know, don't worry." She nodded and walked up the steps in front of the door of the house according to the original plan. Then she turned to face the crowd, hugged her fist and said, "Your Excellency, I, Ximen Bingying, was born in the world. It is inevitable that I have some Jianghu habits to deal with things. If there is any offending, please forgive me. Since you are here, please come to the house and sit for a moment, so that I can enjoy the friendship of the master. What do you think?

The official who came to give gifts eased his face and thought that it was probably Yang Ping's thing that made the beauty unhappy. That's why he said what he said to mock Yang Ping, not to all of them. So everyone agreed: "I dare not."

"Ximen's invitation, how can we not be honorable?"

"Yes, yes, we can't wait for it."

Hearing the echoes, Bingying smiled and said, "Your Excellency, please." With that, she took the lead into the divine arrest house. After entering the house, she found that there were unique caves in the house, which were extremely magnificent, and two styles were very different from Dongliu Villa. And the emperor is really careful. Even the servants have arranged it, but I don't know whether he really wants to serve her or monitor her day and night.

After entering the house, Ye Bing ordered his servants to hold a banquet, but the servants replied that they were ready. It was really just a while, and the servants arranged everything properly. All officials have seats, and all the drinks and dishes are available. It seems that the emperor had already expected that the officials would have this move, so he had asked people to prepare first.

Bingying looked at the officials below spontaneously waiting for the officials to sit down before choosing their own seats. She couldn't help sighing: the official level crushed people to death. However, she was secretly surprised to hear several officials call two of them 'Lord Shangshu' and 'Lord Taifu'. The two were sitting in the first seat on the left and the first seat on the right at this time, about 50 years old.

She doesn't know how many officials she is, but this Shangshu and Taifu must be much bigger than her official character, right? Even they came to give gifts... She was really a little restless. People are afraid of being famous and afraid of being strong. Looking at their actions, the purpose is not clear, and it is no wonder that her parents are so worried about her going to Beijing.

"It seems that the Simon catcher doesn't know much about everyone present. Let me introduce the Simon catcher one by one." Lord Shangshu on the left stood up and said to Bingying with a smile.

Bingying was so eager that she got up and arched her hand and said, "I'm going to do this, so there will be Lord Shangshu." She can't learn from their 'lower officials', 'officials' and so on. It's not because she is arrogant, but because she will only be a catcher in the future. Her duty is to arrest the imperial court for Jiangyang thieves. She really has nothing to do with these officials. She can't offend them easily, but she can't afford to them.

"Oh? How did the Simmon catcher know that this official was He Xi, the minister of this dynasty? He Xi asked knowingly, but someone had called him, and Ximen Bingying must have heard it. But when he deliberately asked this, he also indirectly introduced his identity and name.

Bingying smiled and said, "The name of Lord Shangshu is like thunder. How can I not know?"

"I dare not be the head of the Ximen catcher, who is the big red man in front of the emperor and Mr. Dongliu's beloved daughter. I really dare not be the official." He Xi modestly introduced the officials to her one by one: "This is Lord Wei Zhengsiwei, this is Lord Zhao Hong'an, this is Lord Zhao, and this is Beijing..."

Bingying listened carefully, remembered them one by one, and kept nodding and smiling at them. He Xi introduced quickly, and she didn't want her to be too familiar with others, so she didn't have a chance to greet other officials. However, He Xi is the head of the six departments, and no one dares to express their dissatisfaction with him.

After the introduction, Bingying invited He Xi to take a seat, and then said an official saying: "My Ximen Bingying was originally a grass native, and as a woman, I was not allowed to meet you here. Fortunately, I was favored by the emperor and ordered me to take the post of arresting quickly, so that I was really honored to meet you. Ximen Bingying can only repay the emperor with his loyalty; to all the lords, she only has a glass of wine to express her gratitude.

She picked up a full glass of wine and stood up: "My lords, I'll do it first!" After saying that, she looked up and drank the glass of wine and showed the bottom of the glass to everyone.

"The Ximen catcher is so brave, and he is really a woman! OK, I will also have a drink to the head of Ximen!" After saying that, He Xi also drank all the wine in the glass. On the surface, he looked very admiring the female catcher very much. In fact, only he knew how disdainful he was to her. In his opinion, this Ximen Bingying will be accepted as a concubine by the emperor sooner or later. Isn't Ning, who is now in power, also a female official at the beginning?

Bingying did not miss the trace of disdain in his eyes when he was drinking, and she suddenly had a different look at Lord He. On the contrary, the Taifu has been looking at her and doesn't know what the intention is. Maybe they were instructed by the emperor, or maybe other forces were doing it, but it was none of her business. She was just a catcher and did not participate in the struggle of the court.

In a word, after this headache official ceremony, she will stay away from the temple and be her 'police' at ease. So no matter what they are thinking, she can't let them succeed. Bingying continued to be a virtual snake with the officials, but she thought to herself.
