Dragon Pattern Roll Set
Chapter 124 [The cat tricks the mouse]
At this time, in the prison of Dali Temple.
Bao Yan and Bao Fu stared at the dishes in front of them, a bowl of rice, two steamed buns and a pot of wine in a daze.
Bao Fu poked the sweet and sour fish, it was cooked fresh!
"what!"
Just as Bao Yan picked up the chopsticks, Bao Fu suddenly yelled in surprise, Bao Yan dropped his chopsticks, and looked at him with wide eyes, "Why are you?"
"I know, Master!" Bao Fu said with a sad face, "Didn't they say that the meal before death is the best, is it because we have contradicted the military master just now and will be beheaded? What should we do, Master, why don't we tell them Master is... um."
Before Bao Fu finished speaking, Bao Yan rushed over and covered his mouth.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Bao Yan knocked on his forehead, "Kaifeng's law and order is under the jurisdiction of Kaifeng Prefecture, and Dali Temple is in charge of criminal prisons. The trials are basically supervised. They have to be tried together with the Ministry of Criminal Justice. All the cases it judges have to be reviewed by the prime minister. .”
Bao Fu rubbed his forehead and tilted his head, "And then..."
Bao Yan glared at him and pinched his ears, "You forgot who the Prime Minister is? You little idiot!"
Bao Fu was stunned, scratched his head, "That's right!"
Bao Yan put a chopstick dish into his bowl, "Hurry up and eat!"
With that said, both of them started to eat.After all, they are not very old, and the two and a half children started to discuss the taste of the food after eating!Especially the sweet and sour fish cooked so like Taibaiju?As everyone knows, it was bought from Taibaiju.
Pang Yu leaned on the haystack and looked at the two of them, feeling amused, what's going on?Are you two idiots?
Bao Yan chewed and patted the cucumber, saw Pang Yu lying on the haystack looking at them, and asked, "Do you want to eat it?"
Pang Yu shrugged, "I'm not hungry, I'll eat later."
"Oh." Bao Yan nodded, he was taught by his mother since he was a child, he could not eat or sleep, so he continued to eat obediently.
"What did you two do?" Pang Yu was curious. Those who can enter Dali Temple are basically repeat offenders. What kind of bad things can these two teenagers do?And it's a little strange to be locked up with myself.
"I don't know." Bao Yan shook his head depressedly, and put down his job, "On the way, I saw two men and horses fighting outside the city. I just argued with a military master before I was arrested."
Pang Yu was even more puzzled, "I was locked up after a few words with someone? What's your name?"
"My name is Bao Yan, and he is Bao Fu. What about you?" Bao Yan asked, "How did you get in?"
Pang Yu sighed, "My name is Pang Yu, and I didn't do anything, but I will be accused of treason and murder, and I will be executed in a month's time."
Bao Yan was surprised - because Pang Yu looked like a playboy, but he didn't look like he could kill someone?
Bao Fu hurriedly grabbed his young master, that means - murderer!be careful.
Bao Yan thought for a while, then suddenly frowned and looked at Pang Yu, "Wait a minute, your name is Pang Yu? That father-in-law just called you Young Master..."
Speaking of this, Bao Yan suddenly took a deep breath, "Are you a little crab?!"
The corner of Pang Yu's mouth twitched, then he turned around and continued to sleep, with his butt facing Bao Yan.
Bao Yan blinked, and Xiao Bao Fu tugged at his sleeve, "Young master, why do you call people nicknames as soon as you meet?"
Bao Yan also felt that it was a bit impolite to call it out directly - although outsiders said so, there was a treacherous minister in the dynasty who was Grand Master Pang Ji, and his son An Lehou Pang Yu was a little crab with no knowledge and skills.
Still the same sentence, Bao Yan is a polite and good boy. He thinks that they are all rumors after all, and he has never seen it with his own eyes.This Dali Temple seems to be unreliable!
So, Bao Yan picked up a few dishes with chopsticks, held the rice bowl and took the chopsticks to sit down beside Pang Yu, and asked him, "Why did they wrong you?"
Pang Yu glanced at him, helplessly, "Why are you asking?"
"If you have been wronged, I will redress your grievance!" Bao Yan picked out the fish bone, "Have you gone to Kaifeng Mansion to redress your injustice?"
When Pang Yu heard about Kaifeng Mansion, he seemed to be in a better mood, "I said that I will try my case after Mr. Bao comes back...but he doesn't deal with my father, who knows if he will help me..."
Pang Yu said something casually, but Bao Yan narrowed his eyes, "Master Bao is of course fair and honest!" After finishing speaking, he didn't even eat, and put down his job, "Tell me, why did they wrong you? ?!"
Seeing that Bao Yan was so excited, Pang Yu wondered, "Why are you so excited? By the way, your surname is also Bao, so you can't be..." Then, Pang Yu laughed, "Haha, it's impossible!"
Bao Yan frowned, "What's impossible?"
"Oh... How could Mr. Bao have a son as white as you?" Pang Yu said, with a snort, "But Lao Bao's wife should also be quite dark, her son must be a small briquette... oops!"
Pang Yu was enjoying himself, when suddenly Bao Yan jumped up and strangled him, "How dare you say I'm a little coal ball, you little crab!"
"Where did I mention you, I was talking about Lord Bao's son!" Pang Yu felt puzzled, why is this scholar so irritable?
But Bao Yan became even more angry, "You were the one who hit you, you little crab, my mother is so stupid! Telling you to talk nonsense!"
After being beaten for a long time, Pang Yu suddenly scratched his head and asked, "What did you just say? Are you really Master Bao's son?!"
Bao Yan squinted at Pang Yu, but he was not afraid that Pang Yu would misunderstand that he had inherited his father's shadow, because no one could compare to Pang Yu in terms of his father's big job!
"Aren't you the young master?" Bao Yan beat Pang Yu up to the head, feeling that Pang Yu had no combat power at all, and was puzzled, "Who framed you?"
Pang Yu sat up and looked at Bao Yan who picked up his job and continued to eat, "Do you believe that I was wronged?"
"I don't believe you." Bao Yan swallowed the food in his mouth, and added, "It's a chance for you to redress your grievances!"
The corner of Pang Yu's mouth twitched, and he asked Bao Yan, "Is there any food left?"
"There are also steamed buns and vegetables." Bao Fu was packing up his things after eating, when he saw that Pang Yu wanted to eat, he brought the dishes over.
Pang Yu ate steamed buns with chopsticks and vinegar, and told Bao Yan what happened that day and the strange behavior of the Fang family afterwards.
After Bao Yan heard this, he was also a little puzzled - what is the Fang family planning?If I really want to seek justice for Fang Jun, it should be done impartially. Otherwise, killing the wrong person will not let the murderer go free?In this way, it seems that he only wants Pang Yu to die...
Zhan Zhao ran to Dali Temple and asked the Minister of Dali Temple what crime the young man in the cell had committed and why he was locked up with Pang Yu.
Seeing that it was Zhan Zhao, the Minister of Dali Temple did not hide anything, and told the story of the Eighth Prince.
As soon as Zhan Zhao heard it, he understood that the Eighth Prince was in trouble again, but this was still a solution.
So Zhan Zhao asked the Minister of Dali Temple to take care of Bao Yan more, and left.
Dali Siqing was at a loss - is that Master Bao's son?so white!
Zhan Zhao had already come to Dali Temple, so naturally he would not miss this opportunity, so he and Bai Yutang secretly sneaked into the courtyard of Tingshi.
Fang Jun's body was kept in the underground ice cellar of Dali Temple, and it was not easy to enter it.
Zhan Zhao squatted in the dark to observe the terrain, frowned, and asked Bai Yutang next to him, "How to get in?"
Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows, "It's best if my second brother is here, dig a tunnel to get in!"
Zhan Zhao rubbed his chin, "It seems a bit difficult..."
"There are guards all around." Bai Yutang reminded Zhan Zhao, and his style didn't look like the guards of the imperial city.
Zhan Zhao frowned, "Why does Fang Ba want to usurp the throne? Does he really have the confidence? Are you afraid that Zhao Pu will chop him up?"
Bai Yutang laughed dryly, "Is there a ghost general here? I don't think I'm afraid."
The exhibition is full of hope.
At this time, the sky gradually darkened.
Zhan Zhao poked Bai Yutang, "Find a way to get in! You have so many tricks!"
Bai Yutang was flattered, "Who has more ideas?"
"You're a mouse!" Zhan Zhao looked serious, and then seemed to think of something, "A mouse..."
Seeing Zhan Zhao squinting his eyes with his chin resting on his face, Bai Yutang asked, "Have you figured out a solution?"
Zhan Zhao hooked his fingers at him, motioning him to bow his head and whisper.
Bai Yutang was helpless, "It's just the two of us..."
Zhan Zhao continued to hook his fingers.
Bai Yutang had no choice but to move his ear closer.
"Go and catch some mice!" Zhan Zhao said seriously.
Bai Yutang frowned, looked at him, then shook his head.
"Go." Zhan Zhao pushed him, "Aren't you a Chinchilla?"
Bai Yutang looked disgusted, "You are still a royal cat, catching mice is your job!"
Zhan Zhao had no choice but to say, "Then you wait for me here." After speaking, he disappeared in a flash.
Bai Yutang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but at the same time he was a little curious, why did Zhan Zhao catch mice?
After a while, Zhan Zhao came back, carrying a black cloth bag in his hand, and heard a lot of noise inside.
Bai Yutang moved aside subconsciously.
Zhan Zhao narrowed his eyes and beckoned to him—come here!
Bai Yutang hesitated for a while, then moved slightly towards him, looking at the bag vigilantly.
Zhan Zhao gave him the bag, "Grab it!"
Bai Yutang opened his eyes wider than ever before, staring at Zhan Zhao in horror, his eyes seemed to say—never!Not to die!
Zhan Zhao was speechless, Bai Yutang was good at everything, but this problem of cleanliness was beyond cure.
"Just help me for a while!" Zhan Zhao seemed to reach out for something else.
Bai Yutang said calmly, "What do you want to take? I'll help you! Hold on to the bag!"
Zhan Zhaowangtian, "It's in my pocket."
Bai Yutang stretched out his hand to open Zhan Zhao's pocket, looked up at Zhan Zhao with some puzzlement, and saw a greased paper bag in Zhan Zhao's pocket, with steamed buns smeared with lard inside... a greasy smell.
Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao depressedly, "What do you want to do?"
Zhan Zhao smiled slightly, "You'll know in a while."
Bai Yutang was even more speechless.
At this moment, the front yard of Dali Temple suddenly became lively. After a while, a large group of maidservants came in and began to sweep the dust.
Soon, several guards landed in front of them.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, they were the ones arranged by Fang Ba, right?
"What are you doing?" Several guards asked the women with rags and brooms in puzzlement.
"We are sweeping the dust." One of the older, particularly domineering, fat aunts came up, "Recently Kaifeng has had a lot of rats, and we have cleaned and released medicines in all the government offices, including the Wangfu and Kaifeng. Now it's Dali Temple's turn!"
Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao in confusion, "Who are they? You found them?"
"That's it!" Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows, "That fat aunt is Aunt Wang who sells fish in the Kaifeng vegetable market, and the others are all the help of the Kitchen Knife Gang she hired to help!"
The corner of Bai Yutang's mouth twitched, "Chopper Gang?"
"That's it, don't you understand?" Zhan Zhao smiled, "There are also the Fire Stick Sect and the Rolling Pin Pie."
Bai Yutang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You are the leader, right?"
Zhan Zhao kept shaking his head, "Of course the boss is the kitchen lady! I'm the favorite, do you want to invest money to be the big boss?"
Bai Yutang suddenly wanted to put lard on Zhanzhao's face, wondering if he would be like a cat, licking his paws and washing his face...to return his favor...
"Rat trouble?" Several soldiers didn't seem to believe it.
"Hey, I say little brother!" Aunt Wang was quite aggressive, glaring at a few guards, "We are ordered by the emperor to spread medicine and sweep the dust. Why is it harder for you to enter Dali Temple than Kaifeng Mansion and Eight Princes Mansion?"
Several guards frowned.
At this time, Zhan Zhao saw that it was almost done, so he quietly threw the small pieces of steamed buns into the yard... Then he shook the bag and put the mice in...
"oops!"
At this time, a lady sweeping the floor pointed her eyes sharply, "Look! Rat!"
"Hurry up!" Aunt Wang and another fat aunt pushed away the guards, "Your Dali Temple, like Kaifeng Mansion, has a place to hoard corpses, and that place attracts the most rats! There is no one in Kaifeng Mansion these days. The day before yesterday we While cleaning, the two corpses in the morgue were gnawed to death by rats!"
The guards were startled, and they looked at each other... They also knew that Fang Ba's most taboo thing was what happened to Fang Jun's corpse.If the corpses carried out of the cellar were eaten by rats in a few days, they would surely die.
"Hurry up and spread the medicine!" Several guards ordered to do it quickly.
The women started cleaning and spraying.
The guards opened the door of the cellar, and some women drove them away with a feather duster, "Oh, you who are in the way, get out of the way, be careful of getting rat poison!"
A few guards stepped aside helplessly... The courtyard was in a mess.
Several guards were dizzy for a while, and saw Aunt Wang and another fat aunt were about to go down to the cellar, so they told them, "Hurry up!"
"Got it!" The two aunts went down to the cellar and looked again... Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang had already entered the cellar.
It turned out that Zhan Zhao's purpose was to create chaos.He and Bai Yutang are both very good at lightness kung fu, as long as there is a mess in the yard, and they take advantage of the opportunity to enter the cellar, no one will find out.
The aunt winked at Zhan Zhao, and signaled—Hurry up, I'll watch over you, and as she spoke, she took the remaining half bag of mice from Zhan Zhao's hand.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang hurried to the ice coffin where Fang Jun's body was stored.
Fang Jun's body lay peacefully in the ice coffin.
Zhan Zhao glanced at it - no wonder Fang Ba was so distressed, Fang Jun was indeed a handsome man, and he was tall and mighty, whoever raised his son would love him to death!
Bai Yutang inspected the corpse and found that there was nothing wrong with it on the surface, so he looked at Zhan Zhao, that means - if he had known that he had brought Gongsun, even bringing the fourth son would have helped.
Zhan Zhao signaled that he had a trick, and pulled out a small bamboo tube about the length of chopsticks from his back.
Opening the bamboo tube, Zhan Zhao pulled out a thin and long silver needle from inside. It was given to him by Gongsun before he left, so that he could insert the needle into Fang Jun's body if he had a chance to see Fang Jun's body. liver.
Zhan Zhao roughly found the location, inserted the silver needle... and then pulled it out, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other—the silver needle turned into a sunspot color!
This silver needle was tempered by Gongsun with herbs, and it can test poison.If the silver needle pierces the liver, if it does not change color, it means that the deceased is not poisoned. If it changes color, it must be poisoned!And what kind of poison is in it depends on the color of the silver needle, which is also a matter for Gongsun to judge.
Zhan Zhao put the silver needle back into the bamboo tube, put it away, and nodded to the two aunts who were guarding the door.
The two put the rats in the bag, and chased them out, shouting, "Oh! Sure enough, there are rats, and they are going to bite the corpse!"
"What?!" The guards were shocked and rushed in...
At this time, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were sticking to the top of the cellar, passing over the head of the guards, and followed the two fat aunts out of the cave.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang used lightness skills to cover themselves with the plump bodies of the two aunts... A gust of wind passed by, and they ran away without a trace.
The two guards went to the cellar to check Fang Jun's body carefully, and they were relieved when they found nothing wrong. When they got on the ground, they saw that the rat poison had been sprinkled, and the women were babbling and preparing to go to the second house.
The guard locked the entrance to the cellar, and raised his head to ask the guards in charge of monitoring.
Those few shook their heads to show that there was nothing unusual, so everyone was relieved and continued to guard.
……
After leaving Dali Temple, Bai Yutang couldn't help reaching out to pat Zhan Zhao's shoulder, "Mao'er, you're really clever! You can think of such a trick."
Zhan Zhao nodded with a smile on his face, "It's too much of an award, can you remind me of the mouse?"
At this time, a figure fell near the two of them.
Zhan Zhao recognized that it was Doro who arrived later than them.
"How's the investigation?" Duo Luo asked Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang as soon as he arrived.
Zhan Zhao told him the result, Doro nodded and replied to the Eighth Prince.
Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao, "What next? Where shall we go?"
Zhan Zhao thought for a while, "I'm still a little curious about Fang Ba."
"What a coincidence." Bai Yutang smiled slightly, "I have it too."
"Then go and meet the King of the Golden Sword." Zhan Zhao said, and was about to leave the city gate.
"How do you see?" Bai Yutang pulled Zhan Zhao back.
"Oh, so honest." Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand and tugged at Bai Yutang's sleeve, "I am an official of Kaifeng Mansion. His son died in Kaifeng, so I naturally want to investigate! Let's go and see if the old man is really dead. The son is confused, and there is still something else to hide."
Bao Yan and Bao Fu stared at the dishes in front of them, a bowl of rice, two steamed buns and a pot of wine in a daze.
Bao Fu poked the sweet and sour fish, it was cooked fresh!
"what!"
Just as Bao Yan picked up the chopsticks, Bao Fu suddenly yelled in surprise, Bao Yan dropped his chopsticks, and looked at him with wide eyes, "Why are you?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Bao Yan knocked on his forehead, "Kaifeng's law and order is under the jurisdiction of Kaifeng Prefecture, and Dali Temple is in charge of criminal prisons. The trials are basically supervised. They have to be tried together with the Ministry of Criminal Justice. All the cases it judges have to be reviewed by the prime minister. .”
Bao Fu rubbed his forehead and tilted his head, "And then..."
Bao Yan glared at him and pinched his ears, "You forgot who the Prime Minister is? You little idiot!"
Bao Fu was stunned, scratched his head, "That's right!"
Bao Yan put a chopstick dish into his bowl, "Hurry up and eat!"
With that said, both of them started to eat.After all, they are not very old, and the two and a half children started to discuss the taste of the food after eating!Especially the sweet and sour fish cooked so like Taibaiju?As everyone knows, it was bought from Taibaiju.
Pang Yu leaned on the haystack and looked at the two of them, feeling amused, what's going on?Are you two idiots?
Bao Yan chewed and patted the cucumber, saw Pang Yu lying on the haystack looking at them, and asked, "Do you want to eat it?"
Pang Yu shrugged, "I'm not hungry, I'll eat later."

Several guards were dizzy for a while, and saw Aunt Wang and another fat aunt were about to go down to the cellar, so they told them, "Hurry up!"
"Got it!" The two aunts went down to the cellar and looked again... Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang had already entered the cellar.
It turned out that Zhan Zhao's purpose was to create chaos.He and Bai Yutang are both very good at lightness kung fu, as long as there is a mess in the yard, and they take advantage of the opportunity to enter the cellar, no one will find out.
The aunt winked at Zhan Zhao, and signaled—Hurry up, I'll watch over you, and as she spoke, she took the remaining half bag of mice from Zhan Zhao's hand.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang hurried to the ice coffin where Fang Jun's body was stored.
Fang Jun's body lay peacefully in the ice coffin.
Zhan Zhao glanced at it - no wonder Fang Ba was so distressed, Fang Jun was indeed a handsome man, and he was tall and mighty, whoever raised his son would love him to death!
Bai Yutang inspected the corpse and found that there was nothing wrong with it on the surface, so he looked at Zhan Zhao, that means - if he had known that he had brought Gongsun, even bringing the fourth son would have helped.
Zhan Zhao signaled that he had a trick, and pulled out a small bamboo tube about the length of chopsticks from his back.
Opening the bamboo tube, Zhan Zhao pulled out a thin and long silver needle from inside. It was given to him by Gongsun before he left, so that he could insert the needle into Fang Jun's body if he had a chance to see Fang Jun's body. liver.
Zhan Zhao roughly found the location, inserted the silver needle... and then pulled it out, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other—the silver needle turned into a sunspot color!
This silver needle was tempered by Gongsun with herbs, and it can test poison.If the silver needle pierces the liver, if it does not change color, it means that the deceased is not poisoned. If it changes color, it must be poisoned!And what kind of poison is in it depends on the color of the silver needle, which is also a matter for Gongsun to judge.
Zhan Zhao put the silver needle back into the bamboo tube, put it away, and nodded to the two aunts who were guarding the door.
The two put the rats in the bag, and chased them out, shouting, "Oh! Sure enough, there are rats, and they are going to bite the corpse!"
"What?!" The guards were shocked and rushed in...
At this time, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were sticking to the top of the cellar, passing over the head of the guards, and followed the two fat aunts out of the cave.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang used lightness skills to cover themselves with the plump bodies of the two aunts... A gust of wind passed by, and they ran away without a trace.
The two guards went to the cellar to check Fang Jun's body carefully, and they were relieved when they found nothing wrong. When they got on the ground, they saw that the rat poison had been sprinkled, and the women were babbling and preparing to go to the second house.
The guard locked the entrance to the cellar, and raised his head to ask the guards in charge of monitoring.
Those few shook their heads to show that there was nothing unusual, so everyone was relieved and continued to guard.
……
After leaving Dali Temple, Bai Yutang couldn't help reaching out to pat Zhan Zhao's shoulder, "Mao'er, you're really clever! You can think of such a trick."
Zhan Zhao nodded with a smile on his face, "It's too much of an award, can you remind me of the mouse?"
At this time, a figure fell near the two of them.
Zhan Zhao recognized that it was Doro who arrived later than them.
"How's the investigation?" Duo Luo asked Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang as soon as he arrived.
Zhan Zhao told him the result, Doro nodded and replied to the Eighth Prince.
Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao, "What next? Where shall we go?"
Zhan Zhao thought for a while, "I'm still a little curious about Fang Ba."
"What a coincidence." Bai Yutang smiled slightly, "I have it too."
"Then go and meet the King of the Golden Sword." Zhan Zhao said, and was about to leave the city gate.
"How do you see?" Bai Yutang pulled Zhan Zhao back.
"Oh, so honest." Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand and tugged at Bai Yutang's sleeve, "I am an official of Kaifeng Mansion. His son died in Kaifeng, so I naturally want to investigate! Let's go and see if the old man is really dead. The son is confused, and there is still something else to hide."
