Under the night sky, only the sound of burning branches and leaves is left.

Fan Xi hid behind Fan Hua, trembling, even though she didn't know the royal rules, she knew that breaking the imperial gift was a serious crime of beheading.

What's more, this is not a simple gift from the imperial court, it represents the supreme power, and it can behead the faint king, and the sycophant.

Fan Xi wanted to go to Queen Mother Li, but when he saw Ma Han's face stretched longer than a horse, he couldn't help hiding behind Fan Hua.

Fan Hua didn't like Fan much more than Fan, and his face was as gray as paper.

What he originally thought was that it was just Zhao Ning's personal belongings, how could he have thought that this thing had such a big background?

He collapsed to the ground at that moment, so frightened that he couldn't say a word. As for the beautiful Zhao Ning, he didn't even dare to think about it.

Nan Xing held the separated gold and jade, turned around stiffly, and looked at Ma Han.

On Nan Xing Wannian's expressionless face, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

She thought about how she was murdered when she first entered the rivers and lakes, how she was killed by Bai Yutang when she failed to pursue Bai Yutang, and even how she was killed by Zhao Jue when she failed to get revenge. She thought about countless ways how she would die The only method I didn't think of was this one - destroying the imperial gift and sitting down to die.

Sure enough, people's imagination is limited.

The gold-encrusted white jade lock was damaged halfway, and the news was reported to Tokyo City. None of these people could escape. Whether it was the person who damaged it or the bystanders, they all had to try the Three Swords of the Kaifeng Mansion one by one.

Nan Xing's voice trembled: "Quickly call Mr. Bao over."

She didn't want to die yet, she hadn't chased Bai Yutang yet, and she died before her love, which made the hero burst into tears.

"Let him think of an idea quickly, otherwise, all of us will die here."

Ma Han ran to Bao Zheng's place.

Panting, he ran up to Bao Zheng, remembering Nan Xing's trembling voice, he couldn't help shivering, and said, "Big, big, big, big, big!"

"Something is bad!"

Bao Zheng was twirling his beard with one hand, and holding a book in the other. He was reading intently. Hearing Ma Han's panicked words, he raised his head in doubt and asked, "What's the panic? Let's just say it slowly."

Ma Han organized his words and said, "Fan Hua broke the gold-encrusted white jade lock."

Bao Zheng said in amazement: "If a lock is broken, it will be broken. Why are you so panicked?"

"grown ups."

Bao Zheng's composure without changing his expression made Ma Han calm down a lot.

Ma Han stabilized his mind, his voice became much calmer, and said: "The lock belongs to the princess."

Bao Zheng sighed, thinking that the Fan family would really cause trouble, but Fan Hua was the adopted son of the Empress Dowager Li, so he could only help to deal with the aftermath.

The Lord of Shouning County usually wears gold and silver, no matter how inconspicuous a small item is, it is worth hundreds of taels of silver, and that Lao Shizi lock is probably not cheap.

Bao Zheng nodded, his heart ached enough to bleed: "It's enough for the government to pay the Princess one."

It's a pity that he has a clean sleeve and no family property. With his salary, if he pays Zhao Ning a lock, he might have to eat dry steamed buns in Kaifeng Mansion for several years.

Bao Zheng said: "What kind of material is that lock made of? How much is it worth? Take your time, I just need someone to make another one."

Ma Han looked at Bao Zheng, and thought to himself that it was Mr. Fu Yin. Look at the calmness of the mountain collapsed and his expression unchanged, he is much better than him!

So Ma Han also calmed down, and his tone became more gentle.

Ma Han said: "Returning to my lord, the lock has no special features, but it is rather special, with jade embedded in gold..."

Bao Zheng nodded, thinking about his salary.

"As for the value, it's not up to the subordinates to estimate. After all, it was given to the Eight Worthy Kings by Emperor Taizong to beat up the emperor and punish the courtiers."

"kindness."

Bao Zheng continued to nod habitually, and continued: "Well, Emperor Taizong bestowed——"

Bao Zheng didn't continue talking, the world became quiet.

Then Ma Han saw Bao Zheng trembling, and the book he was holding fell into the fire in front of him.

The bonfire burned even hotter, burning Bao Zheng's skirt.

Bao Zheng finally came back to his senses after suffering the pain, but instead of rushing to the flames on his body, he grabbed Ma Han, and his voice was no longer the same as before: "What did you say?!"

"That thing was given to the Eight Sage Kings by Emperor Taizong?!"

Bao Zheng's voice suddenly rose, Ma Han scratched his head and said, "Yes."

Ma Han comforted Bao Zheng, he didn't understand why he went crazy when he was so calm just now.

Ma Han said: "Didn't you say, just make another one?"

Ma Han has not been in the officialdom for a long time, and he still doesn't have a thorough understanding of some of the rules in the officialdom.

What's more, he was a man in the rivers and lakes before.

People in Jianghu have little respect for imperial power. His first panic was because of Nan Xing's trembling voice, but after Bao Zheng's calm words, he felt that this was not a big deal, so he also Calm down.

Unexpectedly, after he calmed down, Bao Zheng became restless again.

The change of Bao Zheng's attitude made Ma Han very puzzled.

Ma Han extinguished the sparks on Bao Zheng's body, and Bao Zheng's face was as black as ink that could not be melted away.

Bao Zheng has been an official for many years, because of his outspokenness and daring to speak out, he offended the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty completely. The political opponents have no skills beside them. A few times.

The more times, Bao Zheng got used to it.

Bao Zheng took a deep breath and slowly calmed down, but no matter how indifferent he was to life and death, he still couldn't help his eyelids twitching when he saw people walking on the road and pots falling from the sky.

Bao Zheng said: "Please come over, Mr. Gongsun and the princess."

"In addition, the perpetrators will be strictly monitored, and they are not allowed to move around without the order of the government!"

He didn't just mention the names, but the perpetrators. Ma Han knew that this was a business-like attitude.

Ma Han wanted to leave at the sound, but Bao Zheng held him back, holding on to the last hope, and asked: "How many people know about this matter?"

If not many people know about it, it would be a good thing to make it small. Princess Shouning is very talkative, and she will not intentionally make things difficult for others in this matter.

Ma Han had a bit of embarrassment on his tough face, and said, "My lord, you know that my subordinates have a relatively high voice."

"It's full of mountains and plains, but anyone who can understand people's language probably knows it."

Bao Zheng let go of Ma Han's arm, waved it weakly, and groped for the stool with his fat palm and sat down.

Ma Han turned his head and glanced at Bao Zheng, feeling a little guilty in his heart, Bao Zheng's figure looked very sad.

Gongsun Ce came very quickly. When he saw Bao Zheng, he didn't bother to call himself a student, so he said, "The lock?"

Bao Zheng answered very simply: "It's broken."

After all, they have been working together for many years, Gongsun Ce heard a trace of frustration in his crisp voice.

Nan Xing sent a lock that was divided into two, and Zhao Ning arrived belatedly accompanied by Zhan Zhao.

Gongsun Ce looked at the soft and weak Zhao Ning calmly. The imperial gift was handed over to Zhao Ning by the Baxian King to carry it with him. So stupid, why do you have to break ground on Tai Sui?

Is it bad to live?

Bao Zheng thought about Zhao Ning's kind heart and gentle temperament, and was about to say a few soft words when he saw Zhao Ning's eyes were red.

Zhao Ning took the lock from Nan Xing, tears were like broken beads, and his voice was hoarse, which made people feel soft-hearted for no reason.

Zhao Ning said: "How can this be good?"

"Back then, my father swore in front of Emperor Taizong that as long as he was there, the lock and the golden mace would be there. He is locked, and if the lock is not there, he will not live alone."

"Now that he is still alive, the lock will be destroyed first. Could it be that he had an accident in Tokyo?"

After Zhao Ning finished speaking, he burst into tears.

These words completely cut off Bao Zheng's desire to ask for love.

It is the most taboo thing for the royal family to make a prophecy come true.

Bao Zheng couldn't tell Zhao Ning, Princess, the eight virtuous kings in this house have a full heaven and a round earth pavilion, which is a sign of great wealth and longevity, and they must not die because of this lock.

This is what warlocks and Qin Tianjian should do, not something he can say as a governor.

What's more, it is not a small crime to store the imperial gifts improperly and cause them to be damaged.

What's more, this is not an ordinary imperial gift.

Bao Zheng felt that he had never been so physically and mentally exhausted against Qin Xianglian and Chen Shimei.

Gongsun Ce has always been the most intelligent and rational among the crowd, and this time was no exception. After thinking for a while, he winked at Zhan Zhao and asked him to coax Zhao Ning.

Good steel is used on the blade, and Zhan Zhao's fourth-rank guards with swords in front of the imperial court coaxing a super-rank princess is not considered inferior.

Although Zhan Zhao is a member of the Jianghu, he does not have much awe of the imperial power, but on the way with Zhao Ning, after being told the meaning of the gold-encrusted white jade lock, he is more or less sympathetic to the unmasked The lock has a little understanding.

Zhan Zhao didn't shy away from their relationship, coaxing Zhao Ning softly.

Facing the whimpering Zhao Ning, Bao Zheng felt a little guilty in his heart. He was still trying to make a big problem into a small one just now, so I really feel sorry for Zhao Ning.

Bao Zheng coughed lightly, and said: "Princess, the government has captured the perpetrator."

Zhao Ning responded softly, tears streaming down his face, very pitiful.

"You see?"

"Although I am a princess, I don't know much about the law. How to deal with it should be judged by an adult."

Zhao Ning supported Nan Xing's hand, and when the night wind blew, her thin figure was crumbling.

With Zhao Ning's words, Bao Zheng kicked the ball to deal with the Fan Hua brothers and sisters.

While Bao Zheng was thinking, he heard Empress Dowager Li's anxious voice.

Empress Dowager Li came over with the help of the little maid, hurriedly said: "If you want to kill my son, kill me first."

Hearing Queen Mother Li's voice, Zhao Ning trembled slightly.

Her eyes were red again, as frightened as a frightened little rabbit.

Zhan Zhao frowned, and pulled her behind.

In the wide sleeves, Zhan Zhao held Zhao Ning's soft hand, leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

The hot air exhaled by Zhan Zhao sprinkled on Zhao Ning's neck, where the hot air went, Zhao Ning's skin turned pink little by little.

Zhao Ning's eyes flickered, and he blushed and gave a compliment, then held Zhan Zhao's broad palm instead.

His fingers were very hot, and due to years of martial arts practice, there were some thin calluses on his fingertips.

Zhao Ning hooked his fingers, and his soft fingers seemed to draw the calluses on Zhan Zhao's hands unconsciously, causing Zhan Zhao to catch his breath and lower his head to look at her.

There were still tears on Zhao Ning's face, and he looked ignorant and sad.

Zhan Zhao withdrew his gaze, took a deep breath, and adjusted his breath.

Empress Dowager Li was blind and couldn't see this scene. Nan Xing stood behind Zhao Ning, and she was no stranger to it.

Covered by loose clothes, Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce couldn't notice that they were holding hands privately, they only saw the two standing very close together, Zhan Zhao bowed his head and said something to Zhao Ning, Zhao Ning's tears gradually stopped , and the panic on his face faded a bit.

Young is so good.

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce recited these words silently several times in their hearts, just pretending that they were also blind and couldn't see anything.

Empress Dowager Li didn't know that the lock was given by Emperor Taizong at that time, and she was still beating the ground with a walking stick, repeating: "If you want to kill my son, kill me first!"

Once Nan Xing got angry, he didn't care if she was Bao Zheng's mother or anyone else's mother. He sneered and said, "Grandmother, don't worry, all of us are going to die, and no one can run away. .”

Nan Xing's words were rather blunt, Empress Dowager Li said: "What is your identity? Your master hasn't spoken yet, how can you interrupt here?"

Nan Xing clasped his arms around his chest, swayed his sword tassel, and said, "I am Di Niangniang's adopted daughter."

Empress Dowager Li laughed and said: "What kind of righteous daughter is not a righteous daughter, just a servant."

Nan Xing was taken aback, and immediately retorted: "The queen mother granted me the position of a fourth-rank female bodyguard. Your son is only a third-rank, but only half a rank older than me. He can stand here and talk, why can't I stand here and talk?"

Bao Zheng from Sanpin: "..."

The royal princesses and princesses all have secret guards and so on, and some are set up as female guards because of the inconvenience of men. They are granted the official position of guards and serve the princesses and princesses with them.

However, this kind of official position is different from the courtiers, and is usually set up privately by the queen mother or the emperor.

Empress Dowager Li's status among the people has changed from a pretty widow to an old woman who is no longer young. The rumors she has received are enough to make her mouth hardened.

When Nan Xing mentioned the person pretending to be her Queen Mother, Queen Mother Li became even more furious, saying: "Women's participation in politics is not a blessing for the country. It's fine if you don't dissuade them. Instead, you are complacent. It shows that you are not a good person either!"

"Fourth-rank female guard? Coax others, others are trustworthy, but they can't coax me, an old woman, what kind of female guard, but a domestic slave!"

Empress Dowager Li criticized Nan Xing's background, Zhao Ning couldn't understand, frowned slightly, and said: "Ma'am, Nan Xing is the only daughter of Uncle Zhao Jue, King of Xiangyang."

Although Ba Xian Wang accepted Nan Xing according to Zhu Yeqing's words, he never hid her identity because he was afraid that she would be wronged. Therefore, the Empress Dowager Liu, Princess Liu, and the emperor knew her identity, even Pang Yu, the Marquis of Anle, knew her identity. identity.

Otherwise, with his bullying personality, when Nan Xing stopped him from looking for Zhao Ning, he would have rolled up his sleeves and started a fight with Nan Xing.

"Nan Xing's mother died young, Uncle Wang didn't want to remarry, fearing that no one would educate Nan Xing, so he sent her to my concubine's knee."

Zhao Jue was over forty years old and had never married a wife. After a long time, there were rumors that the person he loved had died, and his heart was ashamed, and he vowed never to marry again.

Empress Dowager Li also knew about this rumor. Zhao Ning spoke vaguely, and Nan Xing never used honorifics when speaking with anyone around her, and her attitude was extremely arrogant. She was more like a princess than Zhao Ning, so Empress Dowager Li Believe it halfway.

After Zhao Ning finished speaking, Nan Xing was slightly startled, and hugged the sword even tighter in his arms. After a while, he said viciously: "Yes! My father is Zhao Jue!"

"Wearing more than a thousand armors, having more than ten thousand soldiers, and countless capable men and strangers under his command, Zhao Jue, the king of Xiangyang with the most powerful troops in the dynasty!"

Empress Dowager Li's fingers holding the cane trembled.

Bao Zheng's eyes were wide open, he always felt that Nan Xing had a special status, he was definitely not an ordinary person, Niangniang Di had a special status, how could she accept a righteous daughter for no reason?What's more, although there are many guards, there are not many guards who can come and go freely in front of the princess and queen mother without using respectful words.

Bao Zheng finally realized who Nan Xing's immobile and expressionless face looked like.

Zhao Jue, who congratulates him every three years, has a jade-like face, but his face is gloomy, and there is always a hint of sarcasm in the corners of his slightly squinted eyes. His expression and appearance are [-]% like Nan Xing's!

Gongsun Ce is calm, he is better at observing people's faces than Bao Zheng.

When he saw Nan Xing and Zhao Ning for the first time, he felt that they were somewhat alike, and after observing Nan Xing's behavior, he immediately felt that she might be the illegitimate daughter of a certain prince, so it was not easy to take care of her. She went back to the house to raise her, so she gave it to the Eight Sage Kings as a righteous daughter.

Of course, if it wasn't for the fact that the Baxian King was afraid that his wife would become famous, Gongsun Ce would have guessed about the Baxian King.

So Gongsun Ce pulled Bao Zheng to pay respects to Nan Xing, Nan Xing gave way, but did not accept the bow, then looked up at Empress Dowager Li, and said, "Do mother-in-law think I have the right to speak here?"

Empress Dowager Li's hand shook again.

In her opinion, Baxian King has a good temper and is weak and deceitful, while Xiangyang King Zhao Jue, who was born in a military camp, has a gloomy temper and is not easy to be contaminated.

So Empress Dowager Li thought for a while, and apologized simply: "The old lady doesn't know your identity, so you are being abrupt."

After saying this, without waiting for Nan Xing to answer, she uncovered the chapter and asked Bao Zheng directly: "What crime did my son commit? Are you going to yell at him?"

Nan Xing was so annoyed by her perfunctory attitude that she jumped up and down, Zhao Ning pulled her and gave her a wink, indicating that the next stage was to play.

Nan Xing has been with Zhao Ning for many years, and he should know what she is thinking, so he suppressed his impatience and looked at Bao Zheng.

Bao Zheng cupped his hands and said, "It's not that Bao Zheng killed Fan Hua, but that he broke the imperial gift."

Empress Dowager Li smiled slightly and said, "Oh? What kind of imperial gift?"

Her son is the emperor, such a small crime is not worth mentioning at all.

Empress Dowager Li smiled disapprovingly, and was about to speak when she heard Bao Zheng's stern voice: "Emperor Taizong bestowed the eighth prince with a gold-encrusted white jade lock."

The smile on Empress Dowager Li's face slowly disappeared.

"Holding this lock, you can kill the king at the top, and punish your ministers at the bottom."

"Don't talk about Fan Hua at this time, even this manor will lose his life!"

After Bao Zheng finished speaking the last sentence, Empress Dowager Li shook her shoulders violently, and dropped the crutch in her hand.

The walking stick fell to the ground with a soft sound.

Empress Dowager Li has been a concubine for several years, so she naturally knows the meaning of this lock, and even more knows what will happen if the lock is damaged.

Empress Dowager Li's lips twitched, her voice trembling: "This... how can this be good?"

Bao Zheng said frankly: "Fan Hua disrespects Emperor Taizong, he should be executed according to the law."

"No!"

Empress Dowager Li hurriedly stepped forward. In the dark, she groped for the person in front of her, grabbed the skirt of the person in front of her, and said with tears: "I have been living among the people for 20 years, and he treated me like my own mother. If it weren't for him, I would have died long ago." He froze to death and starved to death, how could you kill him?"

Gongsun Ce picked up the walking stick and put it in the hands of Empress Dowager Li.

Bao Zheng sighed, pulled his skirt out of Empress Dowager Li's hand, and said: "The law will not show mercy."

Empress Dowager Li grabbed Bao Zheng tightly. Seeing Bao Zheng's tough attitude, she said, "Bao Zheng, do you want me to kneel down and beg you?"

Zhao Ning stood beside Zhan Zhao, watching quietly.

Nan Xing cast admiring glances at Zhao Ning, if Zhao Ning hadn't kicked the ball to Bao Zheng just now to deal with Fan Hua, Zhao Ning would have been in a dilemma at that time.

Let's spare Fan Hua, slap Emperor Taizong in the face, let's not spare Fan Hua, this old lady Li is not a fuel-efficient person, and crying is enough to cause headaches.

After handing over the decision-making power to Bao Zheng, Zhao Ning only needs to watch quietly now, what's more, he can be a good person in a while and give Bao Zheng a favor.

Sure enough, Bao Zheng looked at Zhao Ning.

Bao Zheng's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, but no matter how difficult it was, he would tell Zhao Ning that he couldn't really let the queen mother of a country kneel in front of him.

When the dynasty ruled the world with Confucianism, it paid great attention to the three principles and five constant principles. If the queen mother of a country really knelt down in front of him, the spittle of the officials could drown him, not to mention the crime of destroying the imperial gifts. He, a governor of Kaifeng, can break it.

Still need to report to Zhao Zhen, let Zhao Zhen decide.

"The county lord."

Bao Zheng said: "The matter of damage to the imperial gift is a big matter, and it cannot be decided by this government. From the point of view of this government, it is better to take Fan Hua brothers and sisters into custody first, and after returning to Beijing, the Majesty will judge .”

Zhan Zhao also looked at Zhao Ning.

Zhao Ning bit his lips lightly, with a moment of uneasiness on his face, he said: "It's all up to Mr. Bao to decide."

The effect she wanted has been achieved, and if she persists, it will damage her "kind and gentle" image.

What's more, with her temperament, she can't be the villain who ordered to kill people. It's good for someone else to do the villain. She just needs to be Zhan Zhao's obedient little princess.

Bao Zheng ordered Fan Hua and Fan Xi to be taken into custody. Empress Dowager Li was in tears, but she didn't dare to say anything.

As soon as Fan Hua was taken into custody, he was beaten up by Pang Yupang, who was also in custody.

The wailing was so loud that no one could hear it.

The wailing sounded in the sky, Zhao Ning couldn't sleep well, and in a daze, he heard Zhang Long's voice.

Zhao Ning got up and asked the tent, "Brother Zhang came late at night, is there something wrong?"

There was a clear smile in Zhang Long's voice, and he said: "If the princess has fallen asleep, it's all right, if not, he will walk with his subordinates."

Fearing that Zhao Ning would not get up, Zhang Long added: "Guard Zhan prepared something for the princess on the mountain."
