Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng

And when Bao Zheng, Gongsun Ce, Zhan Zhao and others were arrested in the cell, in Songshan Academy at night...

In the courtyard where Dean Ying lived, a black shadow suddenly rushed into the courtyard.

The candlelight was dim, and although the moonlight was seductive, it could only vaguely reflect that the black shadow was a man with his face covered.

Seeing that the man rushed into the yard, he went straight to the study. When he came to the study, he looked around and walked quickly towards the shelf where the antique vases were placed. The man carefully looked at the vases one by one. It seemed that he was looking for something. After rummaging through all the things on the shelf, the man turned around bitterly. It seemed that the things on the shelf were not what the man wanted, and the man seemed to be quite unwilling, and shook his hand vigorously. , actually almost dropped a vase on the shelf, although the man picked it up very dexterously, the sound also attracted the attention of outsiders:

"Who!?" As the voice sounded, there were hurried footsteps coming, the man turned around immediately, jumped out towards the open window on one side, and after the man jumped out, Lu rushed into the study. Yun and a few police officers.

Lu Yun looked at the empty study room, frowned in confusion, and murmured, "Strange, I heard the voice!"

"Lutou, I think it should be a wild cat or mouse."

Lu Yun frowned and didn't answer, but secretly thought that he had to tell Bao Zheng about this!

The next day, Zhan Zhao was comparing moves in the cell with a serious expression on his face. Gongsun Ce sat aside and watched Zhan Zhao's moves with a smile. Zhan Zhao's hard work in martial arts, such a boring practice of every move and style, takes two or three hours a day.

Gongsun Ce looked at Zhan Zhao's focused and serious expression, and sighed inwardly, he was obviously still a childish boy.

Gongsun Ce sighed secretly, turned his eyes to Bao Zheng beside him, saw that Bao Zheng was still contemplating, no need to ask, he must be thinking about the case, so he asked in a low voice, "Do you have any clues?"

Hearing this, Bao Zheng came back to his senses, looked at Gongsun Ce, and said in a low voice, "I guess there is."

When Gongsun Ce heard this, he couldn't help being a little happy, "Oh, let's hear it."

"First, the Yi family. Second, Chang Yu Meng Fang, and third, the wine bottle."

When Gongsun Ce heard it, his heart was shocked. It was nothing more than the Yi clan, and the wine bottle was also understandable, but Chang Yu Meng Fang? !Gongsun Ce stared at Bao Zheng closely. Why did Bao Zheng mention Chang Yumengfang? !Could it be... Bao Zheng already knew? !No!How can it be? !Gongsun Ce took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and asked in a low voice, "Why Chang Yu and Meng Fang?"

Bao Zheng looked at Gongsun Ce with a calm tone, "First, there are spices sold by Chang Yu in Dean Ying's study, and second, both Chang Yu and Meng Fang have a common smell of spices."

Gongsun Ce was taken aback when he heard the words, just because of this? "Bao Zheng, isn't this a little...far-fetched?"

Bao Zheng stared at Gongsun Ce, and said slowly, "Also, the last reason, a year ago, you said something to Teacher Meng Fang—"

Gongsun Ce's heart trembled, a year ago?

"A year ago, you said that letting go is the greatest salvation."

Gongsun Ce's complexion changed, turning pale. It turned out that Bao Zheng already knew about that story and words to Teacher Meng Fang a year ago? !

Seeing Gongsun Ce's face turned pale, with fear in his brows and eyes, Bao Zheng couldn't help feeling a little nervous, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to hold Gongsun Ce's hand tightly, and said slowly, "I know, you must I had a dream a year ago, that's why I said those words to Teacher Meng Fang, but you didn't tell me, so I didn't say it, but, now, Zhan Jun is dead, Academician Ying is dead, dead A blind man, Gongsun Ce... It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it now. I don't want you to say it, but I will say it if you ask me." Bao Zheng spoke slowly, looking at Gongsun Ce's pale face. The complexion, and the hesitation still hidden in those eyes, Bao Zheng felt bitter, Gongsun Ce... Is it true that I am so unworthy of your trust?

Gongsun Ce slowly lowered his eyes. One year ago, by accident, he finally had the opportunity to say those words to Meng Fang, so he made up a story:

"There was a family who rescued a Jiangyang thief on a rainy night. Who knows, the Jiangyang thief killed them all and took away their property. The mother of that family hid her son and daughter in the last emergency. After the son and daughter grew up, they finally found the thief. Unexpectedly, the thief had changed into a businessman, and he was a businessman with a good reputation. He had done many good deeds. The son and daughter killed The whole family of the robber was hunted down by the court, brought to justice, and beheaded for public display...Teacher, tell me, is this pair of children wrong?"

"How can there be a mistake? How can there be a mistake to avenge your parents?"

"But the students thought, they were wrong."

"Oh, where did they go wrong?"

"They are not filial."

"Unfilial? How can you be unfilial to avenge your parents?"

"Teacher, when their mothers tried their best to save them, could it be that they wanted to avenge them? From the students' point of view, their mothers tried their best to save them, but they just wanted their children to live well. But their I have lived in hatred all my life, and ended up like that in the end, how can I be filial?"

"...In your opinion, do you just ignore your parents' hatred?"

"Students think that there are many ways to take revenge...they don't necessarily have to use this method. In fact, the students have always felt that if they could report to the government after they escaped and let the government arrest the murderer, then the robber would not be able to live so freely! "

"Hehe...Gongsun Ce, your eloquence is pretty good."

"Where... In fact, the students have always believed that letting go is the greatest salvation."

……

"...Bao Zheng, I..." Gongsun Ce looked up at Bao Zheng, and smiled helplessly, "I...I can't say."

He can't say it, once he says it, he will be out of his wits...

Bao Zheng looked at Gongsun Ce's face of embarrassment and helplessness, as well as the unspeakable embarrassment between his brows and eyes, smiled slightly, held Gongsun Ce's hand tightly, and said softly, "It's okay, I'm just afraid that you will take it to heart. It's hard to be alone."

Hearing this, Gongsun Ce stared blankly at Bao Zheng, whose eyes were soft and soft, but his eyes hurt a little. He didn't know why the pain suddenly swelled up in his heart, and it was full of warmth. He lowered his head, and Gongsun Ce looked Looking at the hand tightly held by Bao Zheng, he said in a low voice, "You are here, I don't feel bad."

For a long time, no matter in his previous life or now, no matter how big the wind and rain, he has never been afraid, no matter how big the grievance is, the pain and sorrow, he has never retreated half a step - because, there is this person in front of him.

Yes, there is this person in front of him, this person who holds his hand tightly and gives him support and warmth.

Bao Zheng stared at Gongsun Ce who lowered his head, the original bitterness and suffocation in his heart dissipated with the sentence "You are here, I don't feel bad", the corners of his mouth slowly curled up, showing a faint satisfied smile.

And this scene naturally fell into the eyes of Zhan Zhao, who had already finished his work. Zhan Zhao looked at it with his head tilted, blinked, and suddenly felt envious. When...he can be like Brother Bao and Brother Gongsun, with What about a good brother?

**********

The sudden sound of footsteps brought Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce back to their senses, and they looked at each other. Could it be that something happened to such hurried footsteps?

When the sound of footsteps came to the door of the cell, Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng got up, and the hands they clasped couldn't help but let go. Bao Zheng scratched subconsciously, but quickly put his hands on his back, feeling a little embarrassed, thinking , Gongsun Ce's hand is really slender and moist... It's really comfortable for him to hold.

Seeing the person coming, Gongsun Ce was a little surprised, "Captain Lu?"

Lu Yun hurriedly said excitedly, "The Eight Wise Kings are here!! Bao Zheng, son, you can come out now!"

Zhan Zhao jumped over, with a curious and puzzled look on his face, "Eight Wise Kings?"

Gongsun Ce was surprised, and turned to look at Bao Zheng, "The person you are talking about is the Eight Sage Kings?"

Bao Zheng nodded slightly, and said with a serious expression, "Actually... just a while ago, the Eighth Wise King wrote to me asking me something."

"what's up?"

Bao Zheng said slowly, "Mountains up to mountains, white mountains embrace thousands of emerald greens; waters in water, black waters embrace thousands of reds"

Gongsun Ce was startled, "What?"

"Someone wrote a letter to the Eight Sage Kings, and that's what it said in the letter." Bao Zheng walked out of the cell first, and then pulled out the dazed Gongsun Ce, and said with a smile, "Why? Surprised?"

Gongsun Ce nodded, it's really different... The Eight Sage Kings were also involved? !Frowning again, who is it?Could it be that he is still being released...?But, why did Meng Fang do this?

"I didn't understand the letter at the time, but the Eighth Sage King said that the letter was sent from Luzhou. Later, when I saw the altar of the Yi people, I understood..." Bao Zheng continued, with eyes in his eyes. There was a trace of sharpness, "Someone wants to make things bigger!"
