But fortunately, that person had some scruples and didn't attack directly at the gate. Now, no matter how stupid Bai Yutang was, he knew that something was wrong.Hurriedly let Abi go in and report to Bao Zheng, while he continued to stay outside to avoid any irregularities from that person.

Bao Zheng was about to be promoted, but he saw Abi rushing in, and after careful questioning, he realized that today's events were quite strange.Hastily called someone to go outside to monitor the strange man with Bai Yutang.

Speaking of which, these refugees are desperate, otherwise they would not have traveled all the way to Kaifeng Mansion.They were originally from the Jinghu area, but because they couldn't bear the oppression of Wang Lun, the transshipment envoy, they came to Kaifeng mansion under the leadership of Hu Dahai, wanting to seek justice.

To say that this Wang Lun is indeed very beautiful, Rao Bao Zheng just took over his case here.There have already been many wealthy businessmen and gentry from Jinghu who have signed a letter, saying that Wang Lun is really a rare and good official.

Renzong didn't know Wang Lun's true face, but Bao Zheng knew it very well.To be able to drive so many refugees to the point where they have to go to Kaifeng Mansion to file a complaint, Wang Lun is probably not a cheap lamp.

Especially the man outside here is probably also Wang Lun's person. Bao Zheng didn't know whether to let these refugees out or stay.

Gongsun Ce saw through Bao Zheng's thoughts, leaned over and said softly: "From the student's point of view, since there is only one person outside, he must not have the intention of killing them all, let alone this is Kaifeng Mansion, once he dies There are so many refugees, even if Wang Lun wants to evade it, he can’t evade it. His target should be Hu Dahai, the leader of these refugees, as long as Hu Dahai is kept, sir, there will be no witnesses.”

It was reasonable to listen to what Gongsun Ce said, but he waved his hand and asked the victims to go back and wait for the news.It's just that Hu Dahai, who went out this time, has already turned into Zhan Zhao who was changed by A Zhu's skillful hands.

As expected by Gongsun Ce, the man took action as soon as he went out.He didn't follow the others, he just stared at "Hu Dahai" and waited until there was no one else, then drew a soft sword from his waist and killed him.

His goal is very clear, most of these refugees are very timid people, as long as this troublesome Hu Dahai is killed.The rest of the people absolutely did not have the guts to continue suing, but this time he missed one thing, that is, this "Hu Dahai" is not the original person.

Moreover, Bai Yutang on the side was impatient for a long time. With Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang teaming up, no matter how powerful the assassin was, he still had to lose.Zhan Zhao originally wanted to catch someone alive and go back, so that he could ask Bao Zheng a thing or two, but he didn't want the assassin to kill himself.

Looking at the bodies dragged back by Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, Bao Zheng's brows furrowed deeper, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Come prepare the sedan chair and enter the palace!"

If this kind of thing is not reported to Renzong again, then I don't know how long it will take.Coincidentally, today is the day when Yelu Menglong of the Liao Kingdom came to Beijing to discuss tribute matters.

Bao Zheng Road was only halfway there when he saw Lu Yijian, a majestic prime minister forced to give way by a barbarian.How can Bao Zheng, who has always been upright, tolerate others running wild on his own land?Without saying a word, he persuaded Lu Yijian to move on, and while persuading him, he ordered Gongsun Ce to "ask" someone to make way.

It's just that Yelu Menglong, who just frustrated Lu Yijian's spirit, is willing to let it go?It's just that he didn't expect that the governor of Kaifeng, who seemed to have a low official rank, would directly order someone to clear the way.

No matter how presumptuous Yelu Menglong was, he didn't dare to do anything wrong, so he had to give orders to make way.But he didn't want to see his old enemy Pang Tong when he turned around, and Pang Tong actually walked slowly through the path that Lu Yijian and Bao Zheng gave up.

This is really intolerable!You must know that Yelu Menglong's greatest enemy in this life is probably this Pang Tong, so he immediately asked: "Why do you give way to him, but not to me? Could it be that you look down on my Liao Kingdom?"

This voice happened to reach Pang Tong's ears impartially, and he said without turning his head: "This road is the road of my Great Song Dynasty, and I will only give it to people in my Great Song Dynasty. If you want them, you will also give them to you." Give way, you might as well wait for a while, after your Liao Kingdom becomes a vassal of our Great Song Dynasty, I think the two adults should give you a path as appropriate! Don't worry, I, Pang Tong, will not let you You waited too long!"

Yelu Menglong had heard this kind of Zhang (yue) crazy (flat) words on the battlefield countless times.But every time he was only choked, and this time was no exception, he could only watch Pang Tong and the other three walk away swaggeringly, and sulk by himself under the city gate.

It's just that he is not a narrow-minded person, and he knows what is important.When he came back this time, he had almost calculated everything. The only thing he didn't count was the appearance of Pang Tong. Everyone knew that Pang Tong was a well-known main fighter.And the Taishi Pang and Concubine Pang behind him are not easy to save fuel. If Pang Tong decides to take the lead in the battle, then his purpose of coming back may be half defeated.

In desperation, he had no choice but to go to the post house to rest first, and make plans after his spies in Song Dynasty replied to him.Speaking of which, Pang Tong's entry into Beijing this time was really a helpless move. Pang Yu was arrested, and the battle on the border suddenly became tense for some reason, as if someone already knew about their deployment of troops.

All of this forced him to go back to Beijing to find out.Although Renzong was weak by nature, he must not be bullied.When Pang Tong said that the border deployment may have been known to the enemy, and that something went wrong in Beijing, Longyan couldn't help being furious.Hastily announced the two old men who were waiting outside. This one is the governor of Kaifeng, and the other is the prime minister of the dynasty. Now there is an incident of spies from the Liao Kingdom in Kaifeng city. The two of them cannot get away with it. .

Don't say it's Renzong, let's just talk about Bao Zheng, who has always had a top-notch psychological quality.After hearing this, I couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.Hastily knelt down and said: "Calm down the anger of the officials, I will definitely try my best to find out the spies in the city, and please rest assured the officials."

Renzong heard this and said angrily: "Bao Zheng's matter is related to the safety of the country. You must find him out as soon as possible, and you must find him out before the Liao envoys leave! Otherwise, you, the governor of Kaifeng, and Lu Yijian Get your guillotines ready!"

After Renzong lost his temper, the three of them were finally able to come out of the imperial study room. Pang Tong, who had obtained Renzong's special permission, immediately went to visit his own sister.Bao Zheng, on the other hand, was walking with Lu Yijian to discuss countermeasures.

There are so many people in Kaifeng City that it is very difficult to find that spy among these people.Lu Yijian couldn't help crying and said, "There are so many people here, where can we find them? What's the difference between this and finding a needle in a haystack?"

Bao Zheng was inspired immediately after hearing this, and hurriedly said: "My lord, when you said you were looking for a needle in a haystack, I remembered something. On the night when Empress Dowager Liu died, the entire Kaifeng city was in chaos. Many officials were assassinated. Could it be that the needles were among those who were fished out?"

After hearing this, Lu Yijian understood, and said eagerly: "After you said that, the old man also remembered. I remember that the officials didn't seem to care about the deaths of those officials at all. And I also heard It is said that those people are the empress dowager Liu, who removed the cancer for the officials, and it is very likely that they secretly negotiated with the Liao state to withdraw money when they were alive. We might as well start with these people first, maybe we can get some clues."

It has to be said that among these people, there are not many people who have access to top-secret documents, and Qin Peng, the Minister of the Ministry of War, is the most suspected one among these people.It's just that his family has already become a mess, and it's not easy to find out.

Speaking of Qin Peng's behind-the-scenes events, it is so complicated that a book could be written.His continued wife and the daughter born to his first spouse had a big fight less than three days after his death.They live in separate mansions, and now it is his continuation who lives in the original Qin family mansion, while her daughter lives in another house in the city.There was a lot of excitement about this matter, so Bao Zheng knew a thing or two about it.

It is said that Qin Bingji, Qin Peng's daughter, brought a lot of letters, calligraphy and paintings when she left the Qin Mansion.Bao Zheng pointed the finger at Qin Bingji, and immediately ordered Bai Yutang and Abi to go to Qin Bingji's mansion to inquire.

It is no coincidence that today is the annual Lantern Festival in Kaifeng City.Linglong, the cousin of the Qin family, saw that her cousin was depressed all the time, so she advised her to go to the lantern festival to watch it, so as to improve her mood.

Bai Yutang, who was rejected by the door, immediately said: "Abi, why don't we go to the Lantern Festival? If this Qin Peng is really not a good person, this Qin Bingji will definitely become the one who must fight for the Liao Kingdom. If the Lantern Festival comes If something goes wrong, we can also help one or two!"

Abi was also intrigued by what Bai Yutang said, and immediately followed Bai Yutang to the Lantern Festival.But he didn't want to happen to meet Zhang Hongzu, a virtuoso scholar, to perform on stage. Bai Yutang, who has always admired Zhang Hongzu's calligraphy, couldn't help dragging Abi to join in the fun.

Looking at the four characters "serving the country with loyalty" written by Zhang Hongzu, even Abi, who was not very proficient in calligraphy, couldn't help but praise the good characters.These four characters are so strong and powerful that Bai Yutang couldn't help but want to spend money to buy them immediately.But he didn't expect someone to walk up to the stage directly, when Bai Yutang heard that the other party called himself "Yelu Menglong".I couldn't help feeling annoyed in my heart, and secretly slandered: I don't care if you are a dream dragon or a sleeping dragon, I will decide on this picture, my master!

However, before Bai Yutang bid a high price to buy the painting, Zhang Hongzu was the first to speak: "I'm sorry, but the Chinese character in Zhongtang refers to my Great Song Dynasty!"

However, Yelu Menglong was not a person who gave up easily, so he smiled immediately: "Song and Liao are friendly neighbors, why not sell this central hall to me?"

Bai Yutang at the bottom couldn't stand it any longer, jumped onto the stage at once, and accused: "Since the Later Tang Dynasty invaded our Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, you Liao Kingdom have smashed, looted, burned, plundered, and committed all kinds of crimes. How dare you say that? Is it a friendly neighbor?"

Yelu Menglong was really suffocated today, and reprimanded on the spot: "Isn't it rare that you Song Dynasty killed our Liao people? Didn't Di Qing kill few Xixia people?"

"We kill people who deserve to be killed. They are all people who intend to get involved in my Great Song Dynasty. We have a clear conscience! But what about you! If you don't have the ability to farm, you will rob our people's property. According to the laws of my Great Song Dynasty, people like you Bandits who don't work hard and take other people's property by force will be executed according to the law!" At some point, Pang Tong appeared in the audience and said with righteous indignation.

"Okay!" Zhang Hongzu, who was standing on the side, also said loudly: "My book is here to inspire the hearts of the people and resist foreign enemies! My calligraphy and painting will never be sold to you robbers. General Pang, you fight for the country. Hongzu is not talented. I can only present this painting and calligraphy to the general as a token of my heart!"

Pang Tong couldn't help laughing and said: "Then Pang is very grateful. Pang Kui went to collect this nave, so as not to be polluted by someone's filth!"

Looking at the high-spirited Pang Yu, Yelu Menglong only felt that there was a fire in his heart, wishing he could kill Pang Tong quickly.It's just that the current situation is really bad for him, so he has no choice but to go back home wearily.

On the way back, Abi couldn't help laughing at Bai Yutang, who obviously failed to buy her beloved calligraphy and painting, but still looked excited.This was halfway through the joke, so she stopped it because something happened earlier.

Looking at Pang Tong who was protecting the lantern with one hand and fighting with the man in black with the other, and the woman in plain clothes behind him, Bai Yutang knew something was wrong no matter how stupid he was.Hurriedly stepped forward to help, but Abi saw the right time and took the plain-clothed woman aside.

Since this kind of thing happened in Kaifeng City, Kaifeng Mansion had no choice but to go.What's more, Pang Tong originally came out to sell lanterns for Pang Yu, a child who would never grow up. He couldn't do it if he didn't go to Kaifeng Mansion.

When Pang Tongtong saw Bao Zheng, he directly explained the identities of the men in black. Judging from their skills, they must be from the Liao Kingdom.Bao Zheng couldn't help bursting out several white hairs when he heard this, but fortunately there was something to make him happy, because this time Pang Tong was a hero to save the beauty, and the girl he saved happened to be Qin Peng's daughter— — Qin Bingji.

As soon as Bao Zheng said that her father might have colluded with the Liao State, Qin Bingji immediately shook her head and said, "Impossible, my father is devoted to the country and would never do such a thing. Master Bao, you must find out. !"

Seeing this, A'Zhu hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him and said, "Lord Bao didn't say yes either! It's just a suspicion. If Miss Qin has the heart, she might as well help Master Bao to restore your father's innocence."

Everyone understood what A'Zhu meant, since the Liao people had already attacked Bing Ji, the case of Qin Peng collaborating with the enemy might be close.It's just that if she really said it directly, Miss Bing Ji might not seriously cooperate with their investigation.

It's a pity that even if Bing Ji is willing to cooperate now, it's useless, looking at the house that has been burned to ruins.Not only was Qin Bingji disheartened, even Bao Zheng couldn't help but sighed for a while.

Qin Bingji's intelligence is by no means comparable to that of ordinary women.From the pursuit tonight and the destruction of the house, Linglong disappeared.If she can't guess something again, then she will really be ashamed of Qin Peng's teaching.

Qin Bingji, who wiped away her tears, reluctantly said: "Master Bao, I don't know what my father has done, but if there is a need, I will definitely try my best. Although the calligraphy and paintings have been destroyed, I can copy them again. You don’t have to worry, sir. I just need to trouble Master Bao to find my cousin Linglong for me. The fire is inexplicable, and Linglong’s body is not found in the ruins, please help me.”

"This is what the government should do. Miss Qin doesn't need to worry, but can you really draw all your father's calligraphy and paintings?"If it is possible to restore all Qin Peng's calligraphy and paintings, it may not be difficult to find some clues, but this person's memory is limited after all, Bao Zheng is really worried that Bing Ji will not be able to restore all the calligraphy and paintings.

But I don't think that Bing Ji's intelligence is far beyond what ordinary women can compare.Looking at the calligraphy and paintings she drew, even Pang Tong who was beside him couldn't help being stunned.From the bottom of my heart, I couldn't help feeling a little appreciation for Bing Ji.

If it is said that this can see the mystery in calligraphy and painting, I am afraid that there is really only Pang Tongyi.After all, he was the only one who knew the various deployments of the border defense the most. Unfortunately, after a whole night of tossing around, he still failed to find any clues.Qin Bingji couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but she didn't seem to stop the pen in her hand at all. Pang Tong couldn't help persuading: "You are a girl, you should rest earlier! Save yourself from being exhausted."

The author has something to say: He Zhonghua's Pang Tong has always been my favorite! ! ! !But don't worry, I'm definitely not tragic!
