Dragon Pattern Roll Set

In the beautiful season when the apricot blossoms are first blooming and the willows are hanging down the embankment, the people of Kaifeng Mansion, who have been in the ice and snow in the north for too long, finally returned to Kaifeng City.

Although Zhao Zhen wrote in his letter that it was extremely urgent, and everyone traveled in a hurry this time, Kaifeng Mansion is still the lively and peaceful Kaifeng Mansion.At least the people in Kaifeng City are living a very comfortable life. This day just happened to be in time for the market, and the streets are full of people.

At noon, the north gate of Kaifeng City suddenly opened wide, and the sound of gongs beating to clear the way came from outside.

A sharp-eyed person saw the "Justice and Integrity" sign, and began to shout, "Master Bao is back!"

So, the people of Kaifeng who hadn't seen Mr. Bao for a while lined the road to welcome him. Of course, the most clearly heard were the big girls and daughters-in-law waving the incense scarves in their hands and shouting, "Master Zhan! Ahhhhh! "The voice resounded through the sky.

Logically speaking, Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao are on par in the popularity of Kaifeng Mansion, but Bai Wuye felt that he should change his name to "Niyutang" after rushing these days. The servant went straight to Baifu, took a shower and changed clothes.

The patrol team from Kaifeng Mansion was followed by Zhao Pu's soldiers and horses, so the screams of the girls in front were replaced by the roars of a group of strong men, and a large group of old men were heard waving their dirty sweat towels and mourning. "Lord Nine! Awwhhhhhh"

This movement shocked Xiao Wu so much that he was ashamed to recognize himself as a tiger.

The corners of Zhao Pu's mouth twitched, angrily, why are those who call Zhan Zhao girls, and those who call Lao Tzu are men? !

However, it wasn't Zhan Zhao or Zhao Pu who made the loudest calls. In the carriage behind Zhao Pu, the curtain was raised, and the fourth son poked his head out to take a look...

"Yahahahahah!"

The men, women and children on both sides of the road were boiling instantly, and everyone shouted together, "Little Si! Yay!"

Both Zhan Zhao and Zhao Pu raised their eyelids subconsciously, and Gongsun rubbed his chin, "The fourth son is even more popular than Zhan Zhao and Zhao Pu!"

When the fourth son heard someone calling him, he smiled and showed two dimples, and waved his chubby hands to the uncles and aunts on the street, and instantly... the crowd was raging.

Mr. Bao stroked the beard on his chin and nodded, "Oh, the younger generation is awesome!"

In the carriage, Taishi Pang, who suffered from motion sickness, was lying flat, Bao Yan fanned him, and Pang Yu rubbed his chest.

In the early years, Bao Yan never thought that he would be a fan of this world-famous corrupt official.

"I'm talking about Old Bao. You don't tell me what the case is, but you know that you are rushing with all your might. Half of my life will be buried in your hands, old man!"

Master Bao glanced at him, "Don't you want to go to the palace to see Xiangxiang?"

Master Bao said the words, and saw Grand Master Pang suddenly became agitated.

Bao Yan hurriedly fanned him, and said to Bao Zheng, "Father, don't provoke him."

The grand master asked Pang Yu excitedly, "How far is it? Enter the palace! Ah... my granddaughter! Grandpa is here!"

Master Bao shook his head.

After the carriages reached the north-south main street, they began to diverge. Some returned to Jiuwang Mansion, some returned to Kaifeng Mansion, and the remaining few carriages went straight to the imperial palace.

At the gate of the city, everyone got off the carriage.

Zhan Zhao stood outside the line and looked into the distance, thinking that Bai Yutang was so slow!It doesn't take that long to take a shower!A mouse with only money is particular about it!

Lin Yehuo stretched, yawned and got out of the carriage, rubbed his shoulders, looked around, and was taken aback, "What about the fat monk?"

Everyone was speechless.

In other words, Lin Yehuo may have eaten a lot of big fish and meat with the people of Kaifeng Mansion a while ago, so he weighed it a few days ago, and he actually gained three catties.Zhan Zhao was so envious, Lin Yehuo was going crazy, he jumped up and asked if Kaifeng Mansion was not Qingshui Yamen, and why the food was so good? !

Everyone subconsciously looked at Bai Yutang - he got used to feeding cats.

But Zou Liang said coldly, "If you don't tell me, you will be fat and no one else will be fat."

So, Lin Yehuo decided to lose weight out of embarrassment and indignation!

Huofeng counted the days and found that it would take about three days to reach Kaifeng Mansion, so he retreated, huddled in the carriage and did not go out, eating cabbage tofu every day to lose weight.

Didn't he just come out of customs, Lin Yehuo pinched his arms and waist, and felt relieved that he had lost weight back to his previous appearance.

Not far away, Xiao Liangzi asked Su Qing in a low voice, "If the turkey knows that Zou Liang mixes chicken soup, fish soup, and sea cucumber soup with his cabbage tofu every day, I wonder if he will go crazy."

Su Qing was also helpless, "Don't let him know, just say he lost weight!"

Everyone nodded tacitly, and Zou Liang looked at the clouds in the sky - fatter is easier to touch.

For this reason, Bai Yutang squinted at Zhan Zhao, that means - as a foodie, you are ashamed to eat and not get fat!People gained three catties after drinking soup!

Zhan Zhao glanced up, down, left, and right at Bai Yutang's waistline that would never change, that means - you have the nerve to call me.

The fourth son pinched his own belly and looked at his father's waist, which was not as wide as a palm, and pouted - if only it could be evened out!

When Lin Yehuo got off the car, he couldn't find his master Wusha... Where did the great monk go?He left with Tianzun, Yin Hou and Lu Tianhan.

The four old men were on their way along with the crowd, but they left mysteriously because they had something to do. As for where they were going, no one knew.But everyone is not worried, after all, these four people walked together, who can touch them?

Nangong Ji came out from the palace with a group of guards, everyone went in, but Zhan Zhao was at the end with his feet upright and kept looking, Bai Yutang was so slow, so slow!

He was depressed, when he heard someone behind him say, "Aren't you going yet? I got lost again in a while!"

Zhan Zhao narrowed his eyes and turned his head... Sure enough, the man was dressed in white, standing handsomely behind him, probably because he was always traveling in a carriage these days, Bai Yutang became more and more beautiful and fair.

Zhan Zhao frowned—this beautiful mouse!

Seeing that everyone was about to leave, Bai Yutang dragged Zhan Zhao to follow.

At this time, Zhao Zhen was waiting for them in the Imperial Garden in casual clothes. He probably knew that the grand master was in a hurry to see his grandson, so he simply brought Xiangxiang here.

I haven't seen her for more than two months. Xiangxiang has obviously grown up a bit, and she is even cuter. She looks like a little beauty!She was chubby in a white dress, and Concubine Pang raised her well.

Xiangxiang obviously still remembered Taishi and Pang Yu, she opened her hands and babbled, and Taishi didn't care about the etiquette of monarchs and ministers, so she rushed forward and kissed.

Zhao Zhen simply gave him his daughter, and went to the other side to greet Bao Zheng and the others to sit down and discuss in detail.

As soon as they met, Zhao Zhen thanked everyone for their hard work. Everyone on this trip to the north can be said to have worked hard. Hearing that the old people did not come, Zhao Zhen felt very sorry, and wanted to thank them.

"Your Majesty." Bao Zheng cupped his hands to Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen nodded and said, "I am in a hurry to call Bao Xiang back, not because I am anxious, but because I think Bao Xiang should be in a hurry."

Bao Zheng nodded, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion! The old minister is indeed in a hurry!"

Zhao Zhen smiled, "I will ask Nangong to take you to Kaifeng Mansion later, Aiqing will go back and investigate the case slowly, but tonight I will hold a banquet to clean up the dust for you."

"Your Majesty..." Bao Zheng seemed to want to refuse, thinking that eating, drinking and drinking should be another day, it's important to be serious!

Zhan Zhao and the others were all curious - why is Mr. Bao in such a hurry?Even Grand Master Pang seldom saw Bao Zheng's situation, so he couldn't help being curious.

Zhao Zhen actually laughed, and patted Bao Zheng, "Aiqing, if I don't let you in, the Queen Mother will definitely miss me, so you can show me some sympathy."

Bao Zheng said repeatedly, "Don't dare."

Zhao Zhen was still cheerful and friendly, stretched out his hand to hold the fourth son and Xiao Liang, and went to the harem with the grand master to see Concubine Pang and the queen mother.

Gongsun hadn't been in the palace for a long time, and said he was going to see how Pang Fei and the queen mother were doing. Before leaving, the queen mother was taking the rheumatic medicine prescribed by Gongsun, so she didn't know what was going on.

As his own family, Zhao Pu also followed, while Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang, and Lin Yehuo, who was completely idle, followed Bao Zheng back to Kaifeng.

The other generals of the Zhao family army, Long Qiaoguang returned to the northwest first, and Ouyang Shaozheng brought his troops back to the palace after entering the city. Zou Liang was arranged by Zhao Pu to go to Kaifeng with Mr. Bao and the others to find out what was going on and talk to him when he returned. talk.

After everyone arrived in Kaifeng Mansion and was busy for a while, they finally returned to the study and sat down.

After Bao Yan offered Master Bao a cup of tea, he couldn't help asking, "Father, what strange case?"

Master Bao thought for a while, sighed, and asked Bao Yan, "I told you last time, how did you think about the matter of letting you study in the Imperial Academy?"

"Okay!" Bao Yan nodded, "Don't tell me you'll go in the second half of the year?"

Master Bao stroked his beard and nodded, "Father also studied in Imperial College back then."

Everyone sat down and drank tea while listening to Bao Zheng explain in detail.

Usually, great talents from all over the world would come to Kaifeng to study at Taixue. It was a place where talented scholars and officials’ heirs gathered. There were many literary giants teaching there. Those who came out of Taixue basically had a good future in the future.

Everyone didn't understand what Mr. Bao's rush to come back had to do with Taixue.

"Speaking of which, have you ever played pen fairy, dish fairy and so on?" Master Bao asked.

Bao Yan frowned, and whispered, "Father, those are all deceitful charlatans!"

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao also nodded, but it was unexpected that Mr. Bao would believe this.

Master Bao smiled and said, "I used to think this way too, but I still think so now. I didn't believe in these weird things since I was a child, but... when I was young, I was in Taixue When I was studying, there was a strange case."

As he said that, Master Bao pulled out a scroll with a dragon pattern, placed it on the table, and said, "Actually, there are many unsolved cases in Kaifeng, and this is one of them."

Bao Yanyan opened the file with his hand, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at it curiously with their teacups in their hands, Lin Yehuo stroked his chin and read out the name of the file——The Ghost Masked Man Case of Yin Yang Temple.

Everyone looked at each other.

"Yin Yang Hall?!" Bao Yan was taken aback.

Zhan Zhao had never heard of it, so he asked curiously, "What is it?"

"Hmm..." Bao Yan frowned, "It's similar to pen immortals, dish immortals, and turntables. It's a trick that connects the worlds of yin and yang."

"How does that work?" Zou Liang asked curiously, not understanding these nagging things.

On the other hand, Suqing, after all, has a long history of family education, so she understands a little bit, so she said, "Yin Yang Palace is a game of playing Yin and Yang houses. First of all, you need to find a house that is at the junction of Yin and Yang in terms of Feng Shui. Then at midnight, sing a song Geyao, in this way, the yang house can become a yin and yang house, and together with the yin and yang hall, people can enter and ghosts can exit, which is very evil."

"How do you sing that ballad?" Bai Yutang asked.

"It seems to be the Palace of Yin and Yang... the House of Yin and Yang..." Su Qing scratched her head and couldn't figure it out.

This is, Lord Bao who had been silent all this time suddenly said, "Yin Yang Palace, Yin Yang House, Beiyin Nanyang White Candlesticks. A memorial lantern, a spiritual tablet, a handful of yellow paper and a handful of firewood. Ghost fires, ghost eyes open, ghost faces. Let me lead the way. One kneels, two lifts, three and four bury in the ground, and in a blink of an eye the corpses line up..."

Everyone's eyelids twitched when they heard it, who made this ballad, it's so scary.

"This song is also called the Song of Soul Eater, or the Ballad of People Eater." Master Bao said indifferently, "It is said that as long as you go to a mansion with feng shui, yin and yang at midnight and sing this song, the yang mansion will become a yin and yang mansion. At that time, North Yin and South Yang mean that through the north gate, living people can enter the underworld, so the north gate is the entrance. And as long as one enters, the south Yang gate will come out of a ghost from the underworld to play mischief in the world. So the south side is going out."

"Daddy..." Bao Yan couldn't help asking Bao Zheng, "Do you believe this?"

Master Bao smiled, "Of course I don't believe it, but Dad saw the crime happen with his own eyes!"

Everyone was stunned and looked at Mr. Bao.

"Back then, a classmate and friend of mine used this method because I missed his dead lover. He wanted to go to the Yinyang Temple to bring his lover back." Mr. Bao sighed, "He found the Yinyang Fengshui house, and at midnight he sang This ballad. I just watched him go in through the north gate, and since then, he disappeared. I also saw with my own eyes a man with a ghost face running out of the south gate and hiding in the dark streets. That year , Murders in Kaifeng Prefecture were frequent, and many people said that they saw a ghost-masked man acting mischievously... It took a year to stop. But the ghost-masked man was never found, and my classmate never appeared again. "
