Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng

After Bao Zheng left, Gongsun Ce wanted to read a book, but he couldn't calm down. All kinds of pictures about Pang Feiyan in his past life and present life flashed across his mind one by one.

Gongsun Ce was upset and irritable. He pressed his forehead and felt his head hurt again...

****

Besides, Bao Zheng, after striding away, did not go back to Baijia Tavern, but came to Qianli Lake, maybe it was a kind of intuition, maybe it was because all the clues now pointed to the No.1 prostitute who was famous in the capital three years ago—— cloud frost.

Standing in front of the stele of Qianli Lake, Bao Zheng stared at the poem on the stele, and suddenly thought of a question, when was the stele erected?Who established it?

Yunshuang left a lot of posthumous works, some of which are admirable poems, why did he choose this one?

Is there something hidden in this poem?

When Bao Zheng was contemplating, someone patted his shoulder suddenly. Bao Zheng came back to his senses, turned his head to look, and saw that it was Cui Mingchong. .”

Cui Mingchong frowned slightly, and said in a displeased voice, "Bao Zheng, I just went back home, Madam said that I saw you in Lingguang Temple."

When Bao Zheng heard this, his heart sank. Is it Pang Qiuyan?Thinking of Pang Qiuyan's arrogant disdain in Lingguang Temple, Bao Zheng lowered his eyes and said coldly, "Lord Cui must have known about it."

Cui Mingchong saw that Bao Zheng's expression was cold and distant, and he seemed to be showing a trace of coldness, so he couldn't help but smiled wryly and said, "Bao Zheng, don't get me wrong, I believe that there is no selfish relationship between your friend Gongsun Ce and Feiyan, and Feiyan I also admitted that Gongsun Ce did not exceed the rules with her. I just think that sometimes there are many ways to deal with things..." There is no need to make the situation so rigid.Whether it's Qiuyan or Feiyan, they are all the heart and soul of Grand Master Pang, father-in-law. If the relationship becomes stiff, you, Bao Zheng, will have a lot of trouble when you become an official in the future...

The most important thing is, for my father-in-law, the only reason why my family dislikes outsiders has always been the reason why you, Gongsun Ce, have no reason to dislike your own daughter? !

Bao Zheng stared at Cui Mingchong, there are many ways to deal with things?Does it mean that he and Gongsun Ce are too rude?

Bao Zheng nodded lightly, and said, "Bao Zheng understands what Master Cui said, but some things can be smooth, but some things must be cut off as soon as possible! For example, when it comes to poetry and painting, the last thing you should do is to be sloppy and ambiguous. "Bao Zheng's words were rather tactful, but as clever as Cui Mingchong, he naturally understood the meaning of the words.

Cui Mingchong's face froze.

When Bao Zheng saw it, he didn't think much about it, he just waved his hands and said goodbye, then turned around and strode away.

Cui Mingchong looked at Bao Zheng's leaving back with a complicated expression. For example, the worst thing about poetry and painting is muddy and ambiguous?That is to say, in terms of relationship, shouldn't it be ambiguous and ambiguous?Cui Mingchong stared at the stele with a difficult heart, but in the end he closed his eyes in pain. If he had known this, he shouldn't have...

But in this world, no one knew this before...

After Bao Zheng left Qianli Lake, he immediately went to the Kaifeng government office. When he came to the government office, he wanted to find Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, but he didn't expect that the two little devils had already left.Bao Zheng thought that after they left, based on their temperament, they would go to Lingguang Temple to visit Gongsun Ce, and he was not in a hurry. He asked someone to help him at the official archives of the government office, and finally found out the household registration booklet.

The clerk of the public library looked at the pile of things on the table in some confusion, and asked in a friendly voice, "Dare to ask Mr. Bao, do you need my help?"

Bao Zheng smiled slightly, nodded and said, "This will trouble my lord."

"Hehe... Mr. Bao is being polite." The clerk smiled very good-naturedly.

It is not an easy task to manage the official document library. The household registration information here takes up three big boxes and three shelves, as well as the official documents for the registration to and from the capital.If you don't have a patient and gentle temper, it's not easy to do this job, but such a patient and gentle temper also has a disadvantage, that is——

"Mr. Bao, are you looking for the household registration information of the surname Jia? Oh, Mr. Bao, this thing is hard to find. By the way, Mr. Bao, is there any progress in the case you are investigating now? There have been a lot of rumors outside recently. , A lot of people came to inquire about me... Hey... Mr. Bao, what you have is the candidate information for XX year!"

Bao Zheng glanced at the notebook in his hand, and smiled slightly, what a coincidence!This is exactly what he was looking for!

*****

Pang Mansion at this time.

Pang Qiuyan frowned and looked at Pang Feiyan, who was sitting next to her, covering her face and weeping in a low voice. She endured it, and finally couldn't help scolding in a low voice, "You are the third lady of the Pang family! Why bother to torment yourself like this for such a poor scholar!" What's wrong with Gongsun Ce!It's worth my sister being so worried and heartbroken!

Pang Feiyan just choked up in a low voice, what should she say?She just likes Gongsun Ce!I just like it!As soon as I saw it, I fell in love with it!

"Okay, okay! Don't cry! If you continue to behave like this, you will lose your temper again when Daddy comes!" Pang Qiuyan coaxed softly in a very helpless voice.

"Sister...why did you want to marry brother-in-law in the first place?" Pang Feiyan wiped away the tears from her face, raised her head and asked in a low voice.

Pang Qiuyan was taken aback for a moment, and then said with some embarrassment, "Why else...Of course it's because I like it."

"Sister, all I know is that I like Gongsun Ce, just like you liked your brother-in-law back then, so even if he doesn't like me, I still have to like him. There's no way around that, isn't there?" Pang Feiyan said in a low voice.

When Pang Qiuyan heard it, she was stunned, and wanted to say something, but found that saying something was so powerless, because she was like this at the beginning, knowing that Cui Mingchong was hesitating at that time, knowing that Cui Mingchong was a little alienated at that time, but If you like it, there is no reason, so like a moth to a flame, you would rather burn it clean than wait in pain.

But, that's it, so what?

I got the person I want to miss, but what has Cui Mingchong done to me in the past three years?

Pang Qiuyan's heart was full of bitterness.

Seeing Pang Feiyan's sad appearance, Pang Qiuyan said in a low voice, with a difficult voice, "Feiyan, listen to my sister, since Gongsun Ce doesn't like it, forget about him."

When Pang Feiyan heard this, she pursed her lips and remained silent. After a while, she said in a low voice, "Sister, I will forget him, but I must see him!"

*****

Bao Zheng stared at the notebook in his hand and remained silent.

The notebook contained the birthplace information of the student who took the exam three years ago. At this time, on the page he turned over, it was written impressively:

Cui Mingchong, Yunzhou.

Perhaps a native place can't explain anything... But Bao Zheng sighed in his heart, that stone tablet.

The poem on the stele explained many things.

Mandarin Ducks on the Water Emeralds in the Clouds

Worry and goodness go with the wind and rain without regret

The metaphor of mountains and rivers refers to the sun and the moon

Life is the same lapel, death is the same hole

Bao Zheng slowly put down the notebook in his hand, closed his eyes, and silently recited the poem on the stone tablet in his heart, but after thinking about it for a while, he couldn't make up his mind, so he looked at the notebook on the right hand side. The three-character book "Zhulu Yinchu" lay quietly.

Bao Zheng picked up the "Road Guide Book", which was also a guide book from XX, and flipped through it page by page, and finally saw a very familiar name:

Cui Mingchong, XX, Yunzhou.

Turn another page, another page, and then, see: Yunshuang, XX, Yunzhou.

In the same year, Cui Mingchong and Yunshuang came to the capital. They both came from Yunzhou.

Then, no matter what the facts are, he must check it out carefully.

But at this time, suddenly there was a familiar shout from outside, and then a bald head rushed in. Bao Zheng, who was thinking about something, couldn't help being startled. After seeing that the little bald head with a panicked face was Zhan Zhao, Bao Zheng Sighing in his heart, why did he become so irritable after spending so much time with Bai Yutang?

Bao Zheng got up, looked at Zhan Zhao who was smiling with a guilty conscience, and asked calmly, "Tell me! What happened!"

Zhan Zhao looked around, and when he saw the clerk in the innermost place who was busy arranging things, he winked at Bao Zheng and pouted.

Bao Zheng glanced at the clerk who seemed to be very focused on arranging things, and said, "Master clerk, I have something to do, so I will take my leave first."

The clerk raised his head, responded blankly, and continued to tidy up with his head down.

Bao Zheng glanced at the clerk, then turned around and walked out of the official library with Zhan Zhao. As soon as he got out of the official library, Zhan Zhao said in a serious voice, "Brother Bao, Brother Gongsun let me tell you, he said Qianli Lake The poem is related to the names of two people."

Bao Zheng was taken aback when he heard the words, the poem of Qianli Lake is related to the names of two people?

Immediately afterwards, Bao Zheng's anger soared!How could that person know? !Surely it was a foreknowledge again? !How could that person not love himself so much? !

Thinking that that person would suffer from a headache, fever, and sickness because of the prediction again, Bao Zheng felt pain and irritability in his heart. Taking a deep breath, Bao Zheng said in a deep voice, "What else?"

"Brother Gongsun asked Yutang to go to Yunzhou."

Bao Zheng nodded slightly. The thing that guy foresaw must be related to Yunshuang. Originally, he wanted to let Zhan Zhao or Bai Yutang go to Yunzhou, but he didn't expect to be preempted...

Zhan Zhao secretly looked at Bao Zheng's face. Seeing that Bao Zheng's face was livid and dark, he couldn't help but feel uneasy. Although Brother Gongsun said it was fine, Brother Bao would definitely not scold him, but...Brother Bao's face was really scary Ah, already a dark enough person...

Zhan Zhao's scrutinizing eyes were dark, but Bao Zheng caught him.

"What? Is there something else?" Bao Zheng asked indifferently, his tone was very calm, but it was cold and displeased.

Zhan Zhao smiled mischievously, and said hesitantly, "That...Brother Gongsun said, don't worry, he guessed the poem of Qianli Lake by himself, he didn't see it in a dream."

Bao Zheng was startled when he heard the words, guessed it?Is that a... poetry riddle? !

Bao Zheng nodded slightly, patted Zhan Zhao's shoulder, his face finally eased a bit, "Zhan Zhao, Brother Bao has a task for you now..."
