After the third class of officials in the lobby was listed, the county magistrate walked out of the back hall and walked up to his seat to prepare for the trial. ＥＴ

"Master Bao, why are you here? As he spoke, he came to the hall and saluted Lord Bao.

"It turned out to be Master Gu, I didn't expect you to be here. Master Bao replied.

This person has seen Lord Bao a few times when he was in the capital, this person's official reputation is not bad, and he can be regarded as a man in the court, and Lord Bao does not dislike him.

"What's going on, the next reply is that it is to catch the person who committed the crime, how can it be ......" Master Gu said inexplicably.

"This government is also wondering, this government is going to carry out a special mission by the secret decree of the Holy Lord, so I don't want to pass by here today, but I was stopped by an official messenger to bring us here. "Bao still doesn't understand what's going on.

"Who did it, didn't you have long eyes?" Lord Gu turned around and scolded angrily.

"Adults are small, but they are ......," said the official who locked the man in fear.

"Just what?" Lord Gu turned around and scolded.

"Look, my lord. As he spoke, he handed the paper in his hand to Master Gu.

Master Gu took the paper and looked down, "Isn't this what I want you to find that criminal? ”

"My lord, the villain is just going to arrest people, the prisoner on this painting is exactly the same as Lord Bao's companion, and the little one brought Lord Bao and others back. The official said aggrievedly.

Master Gu lowered his head to look at the portrait carefully, then looked up at Zhanzhao again, and sure enough, it was the same person, and it was exactly the same.

"Your Excellency forgives your insolence, what is the relationship between this and your lordship. He pointed his finger at him.

"He is the four-rank guard of this mansion, Nanxia Zhanzhao. Master Bao introduced to Master Gu.

"Oh, it turned out to be Zhan Guard, my lord's ..... about this" Master Gu looked at Master Bao in embarrassment.

"Lord Gu, please tell me clearly what happened. "Master Bao must know that there must be something strange about this.

"Lord Bao, here's the thing, we have a Zhao Yuanwai here, and he has a daughter who is also as beautiful as a flower. Last night, on the third watch, there was actually a flower thief who attacked her, although Miss Zhao resisted desperately, she still couldn't escape. Miss Zhao tore off his veil in the resistance, and saw the man's appearance clearly. Afterwards, the man jumped out of the window. Miss Zhao came to report the case accompanied by her family. This portrait was also painted by Miss Zhao, but I didn't expect it to be so similar to Zhan Guard. As he spoke, he handed the portrait to Master Bao.

Master Bao took the portrait and looked at it carefully, and sure enough, the person in the portrait was exactly the same as Zhanzhao. Bao Zheng handed the portrait to Zhan Zhao, and Zhan Zhao took the portrait and looked at it carefully, almost dying of anger. This is clearly a frame-up.

"My lord, this fact is not the work of my subordinates, please be aware of it. Zhan Zhao pleaded.

"Zhan Guard, can this county ask you a few questions?" Master Gu interjected.

"Of course, please ask, my lord. Zhan Zhao replied.

"Okay, this county asks you, where were you on the third watch last night? Who were you with? Who can testify for you that you were not at the scene of the crime at that time? The more Master Gu asked, the more anxious he became, and finally he seemed to be interrogating.

"My lord, last night Zhanzhao was chasing an assassin and was with a friend in the next place, and now that friend has left, Zhanzhao doesn't know where she is, as for the witness, there is a mountain Langzhong in the mountains west of the town who can testify for me. Zhan Zhao said unhurriedly.

"In that case, quickly bring that Langzhong for questioning. Lord Gu said that he would send a sign to detain that Lang Zhong, and Lord Bao glanced at Zhang Long behind him, Zhang Long nodded slightly and turned around and followed the officer.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside, and the following back and forth said that the plaintiff heard that the prisoner had been caught, and the Zhao Mansion came up and down to avenge his grievances.

At this time, Gu Xianling returned to his seat and ordered someone to sit under the hall for Lord Bao, and Zhan Zhao stood behind Lord Bao.

I saw that the Zhao father and daughter helped each other to the lobby, and when the Zhao lady saw Zhanzhao standing in the lobby, she rushed up like crazy, "You thief, I'll kill you @#¥%" while scolding and beating Zhanzhao.

Zhan Zhao looked at this woman helplessly, he couldn't fight with her, he couldn't scold her, and he didn't listen to her explanation.

"Slap" Master Gu slapped the stunned wood, "Enough, Zhao, you calm down, when the county is trying the case, don't make a noise, your grievances will be decided by the county for you, let me ask you, do you have any evidence that you said he was the flower thief?"

"My lord, the folk girl is really angry, she will be so gaffe, please forgive me, I have evidence, the evidence is in the thief, when we were beating him with my fingernails, my lord does not believe that he can be examined. Miss Zhao said confidently.

Zhan Zhao was stunned for a moment, his left shoulder was indeed scratched by his fingernail, but it was injured by the assassin, and he really couldn't wash it by jumping into the Yellow River.

"Zhan Guard, would you like to inspect it in front of the court?" asked Master Gu.

"My lord, there is no need to examine the injury, Zhanzhao's left shoulder was indeed scratched by his fingernail, but it was done by the assassin, not by Miss Zhao. Zhan Zhao argued.

"Hehe, Zhan Guard, do you believe this?" Lord Gu asked.

"Master Gu, you can ask Miss Zhao a word. Master Bao saw that things were not good, and interjected.

"My lord, please speak. Master Gu stood up and saluted. "This Miss Zhao family, since you took off the mask of the thief, why didn't he harm you. You must know that doing this kind of thing generally does not leave a living mouth, what you are afraid of is the bitter lord reporting the case, not to mention that you have seen his true face, and it is impossible for him to let you go, which is unreasonable. "Master Bao suddenly grasped the key to the case.

"My lord, how does the little woman know what the gangster thinks, if the adult must want to know, you might as well interrogate this thief, and he will not dare not recruit under the punishment. Saying that, he pointed at Zhanzhao with his finger, this Miss Zhao had a sharp mouth, and Master Bao made her speechless for a while.

Immediately, Master Bao said to Gu Zhixian: "Zhan Guard just said that there is a Lang Zhong on the mountain who can testify against him, so it is better to wait for the witness to arrive and then conduct the trial." ”

Master Gu thought about it for a while, "It's okay, but Zhanzhao is a suspect, and the lower officials have to put him in prison." Someone came, put Zhanzhao in prison, listened to the trial, and withdrew from the court. Master Bao had no choice but to retreat, and now he had to save Zhanzhao's life before anything else.

In the county Yahou Hall, Lord Gu and Lord Bao were discussing the case, "My lord, the little one is back." "The official who went to find Lang Zhong came to the back hall and replied to Lord Gu.

"Did Lang Zhong bring it back?" Lord Gu asked anxiously.

"Back to the adults, the small one went to look for the address said by the Zhan guard, there is no Langzhong there at all, not even a thatched hut, and the small one has visited the people outside the town, everyone...... Everyone says there is no such thing here. At that time, Zhang Long and Lord Zhang of Kaifeng Mansion were also there. I saw Zhang Long come to Master Bao and nodded in embarrassment.

"Lord Bao, look at this......" Lord Gu said embarrassedly. "Lord Gu, this government asks you to postpone the case for a few days, and this government will personally investigate the case. Master Bao had to intercede.

"Okay, this county will give the adults three days, and it can't be too late, otherwise the Zhao family will make trouble, and the county will be difficult to deal with. Master Gu reluctantly agreed.

"I understand. Master Bao replied.
