"Oh?" Renzong looked at Bao Qing in disbelief.

"If the minister solves this case, please forgive your majesty for the minister's sins." Bao Qing said.

"Your sin? What are you guilty of? Good! Good! I promise you! Renzong said.

The court meeting didn't end until noon, Bao Qing was really tired, and was about to leave, but was stopped by Fan Zhongyan.

"Slow down, the official family still has something to ask you! In Wende Temple, you follow me! Fan Zhongyan said.

Then Bao Qing followed Fan Zhongyan all the way, and after a while, Fan Zhongyan finally couldn't help but ask: "I don't understand, why do you like to cause trouble?" ”

"What do you mean?"

"Today, Wang Su made a statement to the official family, so that the official family will not be beautiful, why don't you agree? Do you know? This is a clear discussion, and it is also for the good of the official family! I couldn't agree more! Now that you are being admonished alone, I am afraid that you have become a sinner in the Qing discussion, and I think you will be poked in the backbone in the officialdom in the future! Fan Zhongyan said to Bao Qing earnestly.

"Oh? When did it happen? ”

"What? What do you do yourself that you don't know about? ”

"It's not! I was napping at that moment! ”

Fan Zhongyan realized at this time, it turned out that Bao Qing, the kid, was sleeping on the pillar, no wonder the big guys moved a step to both sides, but he didn't move, he dared to fall asleep at that time.

"Then why did you take the initiative to take the initiative to put up the case just now? Do you know? The ancestor of the Cao family was the general Cao Bin, who was famous. Even the official family is usually very accommodating to him, not to mention that this Cao Yun often goes in and out of the palace. Do you think Cheng Lin is stupid? Whoever gets involved in this is endless. Are you so sure you'll be able to solve the case in another day? If you can't catch that thief, the Cao family will definitely pester you. ”

"Hehe, I'm the best at solving cases! Rest assured, I already know who the thief is. ”

"Oh?" Fan Zhongyan looked skeptical.

"Bao Qing, do you know what the official family is looking for you? I have already told the official family about the experience of Changchang County, and the official family is very shocked. That's what you're supposed to do this time around. Fan Zhongyan continued.

Bao Qing didn't say anything, followed Fan Zhongyan all the time, and finally arrived at the Wende Palace.

"Bao Qing, I came to you this time, I don't want to listen to you go around in circles, your performance today is good, so I got hundreds of thousands of dollars for nothing. But what I care more about is the truth about the robbery of the official bank? Renzong asked directly.

"Your Majesty wants to hear what the minister has found so far? Or is it the truth of what the whole thing thinks it is? Bao Qing asked.

"Is there a difference? Okay, let's talk about what you found? Say what you think is the truth. ”

"Your Majesty, what the minister has found now is that the two robberies of official silver before and after were all committed by the Li family in Changchang County. And Li Jiujin, the head of the Li family, once said everything personally, and Li Hai, the servant of the household, knew all his things, and this Lord Fan also knew. ”

Fan Zhongyan nodded when he heard this, and it was true that Li Jiujin said so at that time.

"Also, in this case, there is a killer organization called the Plum Blossom Gang."

"Your Majesty, this Plum Blossom Gang is the killer of the assassination of the emperor many years ago. I thought it had been wiped out by the Nine Princes. I didn't expect it to be resurrected again. Fan Zhongyan said.

"The assassin who assassinated me when I ascended the throne? I remember that I was still young, but I clearly remember that the plum blossoms struck people with fragrant blood, and the flowers bloomed and twisted the world. After Renzong finished speaking, he pondered.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, this Plum Blossom Gang is actually not terrible, what is terrible is the person who controls this Plum Blossom Gang behind this." Bao Qing said and looked at Renzong, who was deep in thought.

Renzong nodded and asked, "Tell me what you think is the truth." ”

Bao Qing knew that it was up to him whether he could get rid of Li Hai now, he straightened out his thoughts, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, then Li Jiujin robbed the official silver, a total of two times before and after, this is for sure, because the second child of the Li family has made all the moves." And Li Jiujin committed suicide in fear of crime after learning that all the money was fished out of the river by the ministers. The key is to involve one person, that is, Li Hai, the waiter of the Ministry of Works. When Bao Qing said this, he paused slightly, and glanced at Renzong secretly.

"You go on."

According to the confession of the culprit leader Li Jiujin, Li Hai should have known about this. And the minister thinks that the big man behind the plum blossom gang is at least an important minister like Li Hai. Bao Qing paused again and looked at Renzong, if Renzong asked him to continue reading, he would directly say that Li Hai was dead, make up some evidence, and at the same time throw out the account book of the hundred officials who paid bribes.

But it's a pity, Renzong shook his hand and said, "We'll discuss it tomorrow morning." ”

Bao Qing was a little unwilling, and then said: "Your Majesty, the Li family has hidden the five million yuan and never used it, but why? ”

"Alright, you guys stand down." Renzong said.

Bao Qing wanted to say more, but Fan Zhongyan hurriedly pulled Bao Qing out of the hall.

"Why are you so anxious to finish Lehi?" Fan Zhongyan said.

"If he's not finished, I'll have trouble sleeping. Besides, I expect that Lehi must be the key figure in this case. ”

"Then even if it is, you should also consider the feelings of the official family, do you know, how did Li Hai sit in today's position, Li Hai's little sister is Li Guifei in the palace? If this is to deal with Lehi, the official family really can't bear it! ”

When Bao Chun heard this, he flicked his sleeves: "The kindness of a woman." ”

"You!" Fan Zhong was so angry that he had nothing to say, and hurriedly turned his head to look around, for fear that others would hear it.

Besides, after listening to what Bao Qing said today, Renzong was very unhappy, and he didn't go to Li Guiren at night. A group of chamberlains followed Renzong around.

"Ahh His Majesty is here. A young woman who spoke like a warbler singing said in surprise.

"Well, how is the beauty here? I'm hanging out so far! ”

"How did Your Majesty have time to come? The concubine heard Shang Meiren say that His Majesty has been with Concubine Li recently. I didn't think it was boring, so I invited Shang Meiren and Pang Guifei to sit down. "It was the Empress Guo of the Great Song Dynasty who spoke.

Renzong was bored anyway, so he stayed and laughed with the three women.

"There's an interesting story this morning." Renzong smiled and said, "It's the first time I've seen Master Pang being so popular. Ha ha! ”

"What? The concubine's father was bullied, and His Majesty did not punish that person, but laughed. Pang Guiren said angrily.

"That person can't be punished, he just made a great contribution. I really have to thank him. Moreover, this person is not only good at making decisions, but also very interesting. ”

"Even the Taishi dares to bully, and the concubine sees that this person should be punished. Your Majesty, some of your courtiers are very cunning. For example, Lu Xiangye is a ...... who sees the wind and makes the rudder," Empress Guo's words were interrupted by Renzong before she finished speaking.

"Let's not talk about that, there's one more thing. Cao Yun was kidnapped by thieves yesterday, and I am afraid that she was a little frightened. Early this morning, Cao Xi sued Yin Chenglin of Kaifeng Mansion. ”

"Your Majesty, but you said that the ancestor is the general Cao Bin, and her sister often comes to the palace to learn embroidery?" Shang Meiren asked.

"Yes, it's Cao Yun."

"Haha, who can kidnap her, doesn't she have a team of women's soldiers? It is said that it is extremely fierce, and men are afraid when they see it. Pang Guifei also interjected.

When Queen Guo heard this, she couldn't help but laugh: "If it's really a male thief, wouldn't it be better to capture that Cao Yun and be a lady of the village, lest she be unable to marry and spoil the old lady of the Cao family, besides, it's really strange, Cao Yun's sister hasn't married yet." ”

"Why is the queen's mouth so hurtful? After Cao Yun went home yesterday, she has been hiding in her room, her face is red, she refuses to talk to anyone, and she laughs to herself from time to time. I have sent the Imperial Doctor to check on it today, and it should not be a big deal. ”

As soon as Renzong finished speaking, the three women all laughed: "Your Majesty, this is really a disease, but the imperial doctor must not see it well, it is lovesickness." This Cao Yun Xiao Nizi is afraid that she has a sweetheart. ”

When Renzong heard this, he realized.

"You say, did that little girl like the thief who caught her?"

As soon as Shang Meiren finished speaking, Renzong and the three women laughed together.

"By the way, tomorrow we should be able to catch the thief, the courtier who was angry with the master actually said that he could solve the case in one day." Renzong continued.

"Tell him what you say, Your Majesty, hurry up and punish him." Pang Guifei said.

Just when Renzong was depressed, in a mansion near the imperial city in the east of the city of Bianjing, an old man with an official appearance was sitting motionless on a wooden chair in the living room with a gloomy face.

"Xiangye, this Lehi is too ignorant to lift, he dares to blackmail Xiangye!" The one who was talking on the side was Lu Yijian's old housekeeper Lu Fu.

"This Lehi is not terrible, the key is the person behind him! Hey, I've got the handle in Lehi's hands! However, this Lehi should not have sent something up, and the fool knows to keep something for himself. Lu Yijian said.

"Why don't you let Lu Jian go? His knife hasn't been out in a long time! ”

"The bright and dark chess pieces I put in Changchang County were all spotted by a nameless boy. The account book of the bribes of hundreds of officials was also taken away by this kid. The worst thing is the faith! ”

"Xiangye, now that the letter is in Lehi's hands, he just sent a letter to warn us!"

"He wants me Lu Yi to protect him, hey, it's not easy to say! This bag of green is not easy to get along! ”

"Xiangye, isn't this Bao Qing recommended by Zhao Heng? It can also be said that it is the person of Xiangye, why don't I go for a run? Go and talk about it? The official Lu Fu asked.

"Don't go, last time I deceived that Hu Ping to go to Changchang County, I'm afraid that I was spotted by this bag of Qing. After today's court meeting, he and Fan Zhongyan were left by the official family again! It's better not to act rashly now! ”
