[comprehensive] superior skills

It was night, in the study room of the government office in Kaifeng.

After working hard for half a day, Bao Zheng, who had changed into casual clothes, was still full of melancholy, holding a golden pill and sighing to the moon.

Seeing his ugly face, the chief secretary, who had been with him all the year round and had a tacit understanding, hesitated for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Did your lord commit the crime of exchanging the civet cat for the crown prince?"

Hearing this, Bao Zheng couldn't help but sighed: "Based on our government's experience in solving cases over the years, Concubine Li's words are clear and upright, and she really doesn't look like someone who is talking nonsense and slandering for nothing."

"Since this is the case, why did your lord deny this case in the daytime, but there is something worth investigating?" Gongsun Ce wondered.

Bao Zheng slowly shook his head and said: "Sir, I don't know something, and this government has no choice but to use excuses to speak to appease the wronged Concubine Li."

Compared to someone fabricating and slandering the current queen mother out of thin air, I'm afraid that the matter is indeed suspicious.

Gongsun Ce saw that the superior was holding the golden pill in his hand all the time, and said clearly: "Student understands that your lord is concerned about the 20-year mother-child relationship between the Queen Mother and the Emperor, and I am afraid that His Majesty will be angry and refuse to believe such absurd things. .”

It is also true that anyone who suddenly hears this kind of joke will think that someone is making fun of himself.

He thought he had hit Shangguan's mind, but Bao Zheng shook his head again, "Up to now, the government has only confessed everything to Mr. Liao envoy came to court that day..."

Under the master's unbelievable eyes, Bao Zheng told about all the incidents that happened in the Zichen Palace, including the emperor's strict order that everyone present not to reveal the princess's miraculousness afterwards. .

Gongsun Ce was so shocked that he could not speak for a long time. After a while, he sighed in his heart: "There are such strange things in the world! Only then did the students know the reason for the helpless behavior that the adults said. The adults are really worried about the community. If your majesty learns the truth in the future, he will certainly understand your loyalty and patriotism."

Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both. If you have to choose between welcoming the mother back and preserving the continuation of the Zhao family dynasty, I believe the emperor has the answer in his heart.

Xu Shi felt that he could hardly escape the blame, and Bao Zheng said with a troubled expression: "This government is ashamed of the Holy Majesty, and I am ashamed of my empress. Today, facing the voice of the empress and all kinds of grievances, I turned a blind eye and avoided talking about it. Maybe my government even After all, self-proclaimed nobleness is nothing but a secular person who follows the trend and dare not challenge the destiny."

Seeing that Shangguan was always depressed, the master thought about it for a while, and then turned to the square table to make a cup of tea.

"As the saying goes: to untie the bell, one must tie the bell. Since the princess is responsible for all the hidden worries of the adults, why not tell the princess about the old case 20 years ago, and let her determine the truth? If the princess is really a gift from the Song Dynasty How can the person who is the patron of the country disregard the righteousness of the country for personal grievances?" Gongsun Ce persuaded slowly.

"Mr. really deserves to be the think tank of this government. It is really a word that awakens the dreamer!"

Hearing these words, Bao Zheng felt his eyes light up, "When the sun rises tomorrow, I will go to the princess' mansion to explain the civet cat's exchange for the prince, and see what the princess will do."

At that time, no matter what Tianyou Diji prefers, the Kaifeng mansion will be able to respond to all changes without change, which is better than him contemplating in the mansion alone.

"Since that's the case, my lord might as well bring Zhan's guards with me, I'm afraid there will be unexpected gains." Gongsun Ce offered the tea bowl with both hands while speaking.

Bao Zheng looked at the clear clear water in the bowl, which was different from the heavy tea soup, and said in a daze, "Mr. means..."

Unexpectedly, faced with the Shangguan's question, Gongsun Ce, who has always been meticulous about everything, just smiled and said nothing, just raised his hand and ordered the jade box full of fragrant tea on the table.

Following his movements, Bao Zheng couldn't help thinking of the shy look on the day when Ri Zhan's guards brought the tea, "Okay, just as Mr. said."

In the early morning of the next day, all the people in Kaifeng Mansion who were waiting for the call in front of the gate of the Princess Mansion stood solemnly.

Stepping out of the official sedan chair, Bao Zheng raised his head to look at the hanging plaque, and sighed to the red-clothed guard who was also worried: "Guard Zhan, do you know why we are here?"

The dignified Nan Xia is such a dull person. He knew in his heart that the reason why the Lord came to meet the princess specially before he could report to the Holy Majesty was because his wife, who had never been married, had a great relationship with the old case 20 years ago.

Thinking about this, Zhan Zhao lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Although Zhan has guesses in his heart, he dare not speak out."

Bao Zheng looked straight at his confidant and beloved general, even though he had a thousand words to say, he didn't know how to express his heart.

At the moment when the two were speechless, Eunuch Liu, who went out to welcome the guests on behalf of the master, slowly stepped across the threshold, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Master Bao, guard Zhan, please come in immediately with our house, the princess has been waiting for a long time."

Although he greeted him with a smile on his face, Bao Zheng didn't dare to be negligent, and he also replied: "Thank you, Father."

The four guards were assigned by Mr. Gongsun. Under the leadership of Mr. Liu, Bao Zheng and Zhan Zhao walked through the Flower Pavilion and went straight to the hall where they met the Queen Mother last time.

When Bao Zheng saw Tianyou Emperor Ji, who was wearing a long gold dress with large sleeves and a crown of nine scorpions and four phoenixes, who had already sat on the throne, Bao Zheng's heart sank, and he immediately bowed down and kowtowed: "My minister pays homage to the princess." Your Highness."

Zhan Zhao, who followed closely behind, was about to kneel down on one knee, but was stopped by the person above him, "Why are you two gentlemen so courteous, Eunuch Liu, sit down."

Liu Yan saw that Princess Fang gave Bao Heizi a badass as soon as he entered the door, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Master Bao, please take a seat!"

Although he knew that the banquet was not a good one, Bao Zheng still slightly bowed his hands in greeting, "Thank you, Princess, thank you, Eunuch."

After a while, the palace people who filed in filed in and offered a pot of good tea to Bao Zheng and Zhan Zhao who had just taken their seats, and placed several plates of fresh and exquisite candied fruits on the square coffee table.

Liu Yan, who still had to wait on Song Cichao, waved his hand and said, "Let's step back first, Eunuch Liu, guard the door for my palace. I have something to discuss with Mr. Bao in detail."

"The maidservant complies with the order." Liu Yan bowed and retreated until he closed the door of the living room.

"Master Bao, the idler has gone, you can talk now." Song Ci leaned back slightly, and said to Bao Heizi who was clearly restless.

Since everyone is impatient to procrastinate and test, it is better to get straight to the point.

You might as well ask this question, Bao Zheng frowned and said solemnly: "Princess knew that I was coming?"

If Tianyou Diji had known her reason for coming, wouldn't Concubine Li hiding in the suburbs also be unable to escape her eyes?

Song Ci smiled lightly when he heard the words: "There is nothing in this world that can be hidden from Ben Gong's eyes, so Ben Gong is here to advise Mr. Bao, instead of trying to hide the truth, it is better to tell the truth freely. "

She didn't expect that now that she and the cheap mother are in this position, they would dare to come to ask questions, and they are rare loyal people.

Seeing that he dared to offend even the gods, the hatred of beheading the son-in-law in the previous life was wiped out. Anyway, the Kaifeng mansion had already given Zhao Youyi a better husband.

The spacious hall was silent for a while, seeing the conversation between the Shangguan and the princess that seemed ordinary but implied the meaning of gold and steel, Zhan Zhao urged in a low voice while anxious: "My lord..."

When Bao Zheng heard this, he regained his composure and said, "Guard Zhan, don't be impatient. This mansion will make it clear."

As he spoke, he took out a brocade box that was only the size of an adult man's fist from his pocket, and placed it on the table, "Does the princess know what this is?"

These words also have the meaning of probing, if that day You Diji had already known about the existence of Jinwan, he would not take any chances about Concubine Li.

"Huh? Mr. Bao is going to fail if he wants to teach me," Song Ci said with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, "Then you and I already know what's in it, so why bother talking about it."

Now that Bao Heizi has made up his mind to stand on Concubine Li's side, don't blame her for taking pleasure in bullying others.

"The princess really knows?"

Bao Zheng shouted in a low voice and stood up abruptly holding a golden pill in his hand, "The princess must have known about the old case of the civet cat changing the prince?!"

He originally thought that if he explained the reason in detail and tried his best to persuade him, even if Emperor Ji Tianyou refused to hand over Empress Dowager Liu to the Kaifeng Mansion for interrogation, he would give the wronged Concubine Li a chance to reunite with her mother and child. Now it seems that everything is just him It's just wishful thinking!

"My lord, calm down!"

The red-clothed guard who was in a dilemma had no choice but to take a step between the two, "The princess hasn't spoken out about her feelings yet, so why should my lord rush to make a statement?"

Song Ci looked at the expectant and anxious expression on Zhan Zhao's face, and his heart inevitably softened, "What a cat that makes people feel pity and love. Even if you used to face swords and swords in the past, you didn't back down at all. Today, it's not that you were taken by your fiancée." The son touched the heart."

Thinking of the ill-fated Tianyou Emperor Ji Zhao Youyi, she couldn't help sighing again, "If the two can be matched as a pair in the previous life, why not make it a good story."

Thinking about this, Song Ci got up slowly and said: "Master Bao has asked this question, and this palace has something to say, so I ask the Qing family to clarify their doubts!"

"Princess, please, if I know this, I will know everything!" Bao Zheng said seriously.

Although his face was normal, he had already decided in his heart that if the princess wanted to argue for Empress Dowager Liu, she would tell the emperor to tell the emperor what happened back then and leave everything to the royal family to decide on their own, so that the guards would not follow him into a dilemma.

Ignoring Bao Zheng who was secretly determined to break the boat, Song Ci turned his attention to his fiancé who was a few steps away, "Master Bao, let me ask you, since there are princesses reincarnated from gods, why can't there be princes reincarnated from civet cats? "

As soon as these words came out, not only Bao Zheng was startled, his complexion changed drastically and he fell back and sat on the back chair, even Zhan Zhao, who had been paying attention silently, couldn't help being stunned.

Facing Yumao's terrified eyes, Song Ci flipped his hand and conjured up the flying sword that was flying in the sky that day, and said aggressively: "Master Bao, why didn't you answer my question?"

"Wei Chen..."

Bao Zheng opened his mouth several times but still couldn't utter a complete sentence, "I don't know how to answer."

"Oh? I don't know or can't?"

Song Ci approached step by step with a saber in his hand, "When you tried to question this palace and the current queen mother because of that crazy woman in the market, why didn't you expect such a possibility? Also, isn't your master in Kaifeng Mansion a resourceful man?" Wushuang, how can it be considered that there will be such a situation?"

The shocked Bao Zheng put the golden pills back into the box with trembling hands, knelt down and said tremblingly: "This minister is guilty! This minister should not listen to one-sided words and humiliate the princess and queen mother!"

I wanted to make the princess afraid by showing the guards, but who would have expected that she would reveal the matter so easily, and in a few words, she would describe the prince born by Concubine Li as a reincarnated evildoer.

With the current status of the national teacher, who would doubt her words?

While regretting that he shouldn't have startled the snake, Bao Zheng couldn't help looking at Tianyou Emperor Ji who was always smiling sweetly, and said in amazement: "What a clever idea, what a poisonous idea. If this person is not used by my Song Dynasty , it will be a disaster in the future!"

"Why did Master Bao knelt down again? If the news spread, wouldn't it make others say that I am bullying others?"

Song Ci calmly sat back on the seat, and said to Yumao who was still standing on the spot: "My son-in-law, what are you still doing? Why don't you hurry up and help Bao Qing's family up."

Zhan Zhao, who was full of thoughts, was startled when he heard these words, and then quickly grabbed Shangguan's arms, "My lord, princess, please get up and answer."

Earlier, when he saw Shangguan hesitating to speak repeatedly, he knew it must be because of a major event that should not be taken lightly.He didn't know that his wife was the mysterious person who summoned Kunpeng a few days ago until the princess revealed it personally.

The shock in my heart at this moment has already surpassed the hidden worries of hearing about the civet cat changing the emperor that day. Since the princess said that the civet cat was originally born by Concubine Li, and the adults have not found circumstantial evidence that Empress Dowager Liu caused trouble in the palace, it should be the truth of the matter.

Unless, Tianyou deliberately deceived himself...

But with the current status of the princess, why is this so?

For a while, his thoughts changed, and Zhan Zhao couldn't help being a little undecided.

Looking at the constantly changing expressions of the two officials of the Kaifeng Mansion, Song Ci analyzed again kindly: "I think the elder brother who has never met in this palace just lost his mana and was unable to maintain his life, so he was executed as a monster."

"Poor Concubine Li Chen finally gave birth to a half-demon son, but was buried by someone who didn't know her. Probably this is the reason why she lost her mind and looked forward to her son as a son all day long."

After finishing speaking, she gently blew away the floating leaves and took a sip of fragrant tea to moisten her throat, "Master Bao, now that the matter has been found out, how do you plan to deal with that crazy woman who slandered the mother of the country and pretended to be the emperor's relative?"

Now that Concubine Li Chen is already shirtless and wants to fight to the death with her mother and daughter, why should she pretend to be virtuous and pick up the integrity that was left behind 800 years ago.

What's more, they all took the initiative to join in the fight, even if she wanted to let the counterattack female partner off for Mao'er's sake, the resentment of the original owner would definitely not let it go.

"Weichen," Bao Zheng's complexion changed again and again, and finally he cupped his hands and said, "Princess, please forgive me for the sake of Concubine Li's madness and unconsciousness!"

Things have come to this, since Concubine Li's innocence cannot be found, then keeping her for the rest of her life is the only thing Kaifeng Mansion can do.

Song Ci sneered and knocked the tea bowl on the table, "Lord Bao, what do you mean, let me pretend that I haven't heard of this matter, and let that crazy woman continue to ruin the Queen Mother's reputation outside?"

"Wei Chen has no such intention!"

Seeing that the princess refused to tolerate others, Bao Zheng couldn't help being slightly annoyed and said, "I don't know what the princess thinks, how should I deal with Concubine Li?"

He would like to see if Tianyou Diji would dare to act like a ruthless shrew in front of Zhan Huwei.

If this is the case, even if she can't be made to be a stalker, it can prevent Zhanwei from being deceived and unknowingly becoming an accomplice of the queen mother and daughter.

"Why should Bao Qing's family be so impatient? I didn't say that I wanted to take the life of that crazy woman."

Song Ci looked at Bao Zheng and Zhan Zhao and laughed, "I just feel that it is too pitiful for Concubine Li to continue living in a dream. Since she has been looking forward to it for 20 years, why not give her a clear vision of reality?" What about the chance?"

"What does the princess want?"

Hearing these words suddenly, Bao Zheng frowned fiercely, and there was a faint ominous omen in his heart.

And Zhan Zhao, who was waiting at the side, also looked over with burning eyes.

Facing the expectant or suspicious gazes from the audience, Song Ci stood up in awe, and said righteously: "My palace will personally enter the palace to report the case of the civet cat for the prince to the imperial brother and the mother, and I implore you." The empress mother confronted that Concubine Li Chen face to face, and tested the marriage with blood!"

"Master Bao can also take this opportunity to visit the old man in the palace, then it will not be difficult to know who is the real slanderer!"

The author has something to say:

Song Ci: The princess has dropped her vest, and Zhan has a dazed face.

The following is the happy little theater

An emotional forum, an anonymous communication area.

Zhan Zhao: "What does it feel like to marry a magic stick as a wife? Is there any senior willing to chat with Zhan?"

Xu Xian: "Accidentally married a delicate man with a snake spirit and is inexplicably powerless. Wait for my second brother."

Niulang: "Marrying a fairy is not much better, the lady is so busy all day long, she only relies on WeChat to communicate with each other on weekdays, and her face is numb all the time.

Jade Emperor: "...I'd better stop talking about it, I really can't stand the maiden's Mengmeng punch.
