Zhan Zhao, don't worry! [Comprehensive]

Zhan Zhao looked at the daughter-in-law who was standing there smiling beautifully at him, feeling like he couldn't vomit old blood in his heart.

Although the daughter-in-law didn't say it clearly, he knew what his daughter-in-law was referring to.

It's just that even if he avoids this kind of thing again and again, and is more careful, accidents will still happen.Thinking that ever since the news of his restraining daughter's physique spread to the capital, even when he went to the pharmacy to grab some herbs for Mr. Gongsun, the shopkeeper Bai of the Bai family pharmacy would not let his daughter come to the front, Zhan Zhao felt his head was full of shame. black line.

What he knew was that he had the physique to restrain women, but what he didn't know thought that there was another little prince Chai in the capital.

What's more, some people were unlucky, and Ben Tete came to him to ask for compensation.The reason is that he took people on a routine street tour in Kaifeng Mansion.

Could it be that he will omit even the job of patrolling the streets of Kaifeng Mansion in the future?

In fact, in Zhan Zhao's view, compared with patrolling the streets, he should cut down on the monthly shift work in the palace.Although he also entered the palace in the previous dynasty, there were more women in the palace after all.

I'm really worried that one day, someone will put the matter of the emperor's lack of heirs on him.

╯ (╯ ▽ ╰) ╭

"Zhan Zhao, I'm actually quite surprised that you can live strong in the world of mortals." Said it was an accident, Mo Chou was even more thankful, but luckily you didn't have the idea of ​​becoming a monk.

Zhan Zhao looked at Mo Chou, who looked concerned, but was actually full of schadenfreude, and laughed angrily at her, "Then I have to thank you, madam." It was you who appeared in time.

The corners of Mo Chou's mouth turned up, and then she smiled and narrowed her eyes. "Zhan Zhao, you must have saved the entire human race in your previous life, otherwise, how could God have given you such a good daughter-in-law."

Zhan Zhao shook his head and chuckled, but didn't speak.

She is willing to think so, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Zhan Zhao has a good temper and doesn't quarrel with Mo Chou, and Mo Chou loses the interest in arguing after saying a few words.Because they knew that Mr. Bao was going to open the hall soon, so the two of them didn't stay at the gate of the yamen, and walked inside.

As soon as he entered the gate of the county government office, walked through the open space in the middle, and looked up at the room where the court was located. Hei Bao and the others were obediently kneeling in the middle of the court.

Mr. Bao went in to change his uniform, but he hadn't come out yet.Li Chengnan is not here either, he must have gone to change his official uniform.Mr. Gongsun and others are ready to open the class.

Seeing this, Zhan Zhao nodded to Mo Chou, raised his sword, and walked in directly.Standing on the side of the table in the courtroom, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the black panther with a bit of coldness.

No matter how magnanimous a man is, he will not have a good attitude when he sees a hooligan who wants to tease his woman.It was Zhan Zhao's good manners that he didn't kick the panther on the spot until his parents didn't know him.

Seeing this, Mo Chou smiled and walked around from the side corridor to the back.Then he re-entered the courtroom from behind.However, she only stopped behind the screen wall in front of the courtroom.

In front of the screen wall is the court, and the moon gates on both sides of the screen wall are for Mr. Bao to go to the court on one side, and Gongsun Ce is sitting at the gate on the other side.Mo Chou walked over to Gongsun Ce, greeted Gongsun Ce lightly, and asked Lv Yi to bring her a chair.

In today's trial of Black Panther, she, the plaintiff, does not need to appear in court, but she has to pay attention to this case.

When I was young, Li Chengnan came over first.Seeing Mo Chou sitting behind the screen wall, he was taken aback for a moment, then gestured to Mo Chou with his hands clasped, and then walked into the lobby.

Master Bao is here, and the presiding judge's position in the court will naturally be vacated.So after Li Chengnan entered the lobby, he sat directly on the chair specially prepared for him at the side of the case.

Li Chengnan was only at the seventh rank, but Mo Chou had the order of the fourth rank, so it was natural for Mo Chou to accept Li Chengnan's gift.

Naturally appearing here, accepting the greetings naturally, and Gongsun Ce arranging the utensils on his desk without noticing, such a situation made Li Chengnan a little inexplicable.

Li Chengnan didn't expect Mo Chou to appear there, but then he thought that he had done them a big favor in the morning, so it's not good for people to avoid him now.Moreover, during today's autopsy, Mr. Bao and his party did not express any objection to Mo Chou's words or showed that they were being contemptuous. Although they were puzzled, they did not say anything.

After Mochou brought the snacks prepared by the green clothes, Mr. Bao finally changed his clothes and came over.

Handing the snack plate to Lv Yi, Mo Chou got up to show respect, Master Bao stretched out his hand and pressed on Mo Chou, signaling her to sit down.

But Mo Chou still waited until Lord Bao walked into the courtroom from the screen wall before sitting down.

After the majestic opening of the hall came from behind the screen wall and the sound of Mr. Bao slapping the gavel, Mo Chou, who was still a little sleepy, suddenly became energetic.

"Black Leopard, I want to ask you, are you convicted?" Mr. Bao had already learned about the relationship between Zhou Wu and Hu Xiba through Li Chengnan on the way back. After meeting this Black Panther, he heard that he was Hu Xiba. Pa's apprentice.So as soon as he came up, he was ready to frighten the panther.

I heard Zhou Qingsong say before that he originally wanted to go to Kaifeng Mansion in person, but because of the appearance of Bauhinia Island, he stayed at home and waited honestly.

But this black panther led people to find Zhou Qingsong.Not only smashed Zhou Qingsong's house to pieces, but also threatened Zhou Qingsong with words.

If he dares to go to Kaifeng mansion, he will be killed.

Because Mr. Bao only arrived in Lianjiang County yesterday, the investigation of Zhou Wu and Hu Xiba has not yet started. Today, after finding clues on Zhou Qingbai and hearing Zhou Qingsong mentioning this matter, Mr. Bao thought Let's see if it can be extended from today's attempted molestation case.

After Mr. Bao's stern voice came out, Hei Bao didn't dare to quibble. In his opinion, even if he was wronged, but the officials protect each other, since the woman dared to send him to court, she would order him no matter what. sin.

Instead of "beating him into a trick" in the end, he might as well admit it in pain now, so as to avoid the pain of flesh and blood.

"Grass, the grass people are guilty." Damn it, if he had known that Lianjiang County had organized a group of big shots, he would have knelt down and kowtowed to that woman just now instead of being a hero.

Kneeling in the lobby, looking at the unfamiliar faces in the yamen, because he knew they were from Kaifeng Mansion, while Hei Bao was scared, he also wondered why the people from Kaifeng Mansion wanted this little Lianjiang County.

Thinking back to Zhou Qingsong who just met outside the yamen, Hei Bao felt a little timid in his heart.

While Black Panther pleaded guilty, his mind had already wandered off somewhere.

When Master Bao saw Hei Bao pleaded guilty, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and patted the gavel again, "Hei Panther, bring the crime you committed to the truth."

The panther was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but look up at Mr. Bao.

Also, do you still use tricks?

Isn't it already operating in a dark box?

"Bold black panther, don't hesitate to recruit."

Black Panther, who thought he understood, despised the formality and style of bureaucracy in his heart, knelt there and said honestly, "The grassroots have eyes that don't know Mount Tai, and offended the nobleman. Please forgive the boy this time." .”

Hearing what Black Panther said, everyone in front of and behind the hall was embarrassed by him.

After all, the meaning in his words has the taste of doubting Lord Bao's impartial law enforcement and resignation to fate.

Mrs. Bao was angry, and shouted to the left and right, "Bold and unruly, how dare you despise the court. Come here, put him down and hit the [-]th board hard before you come for questioning."

"Ah?" Hei Panther was dumbfounded upon hearing this.

He pleaded guilty, so why beat him?

I thought it was just a trial of the death of the Black Panther, and the source of Nian Nujiao's population again, but unexpectedly, he pulled out the carrot and brought out the mud, which directly solved Zhou Qingbai's case.

Black Panther is a real villain, when encountering troubles, he pushes on Hu Xiba.In order to better get rid of the crime, he even falsely accused Hu Xiba of being the murderer who killed Zhou Qingbai.

Well, it's not a false accusation in Black Panther's eyes.

Because in Black Panther's view, only his master Hu Xiba could kill Zhou Qingbai without seeing any traces.

Sitting behind the screen wall, Mo Chou heard Hei Bao mention Hu Xiba and Zhou Wu, and saw Mr. Bao asked Zhou Wu and Hu Xi Ba to go to court. call over.

The person she arranged to act as the blacksmith was already in place last night, so Mo Chou dared to send someone directly to call at this time.

It is said that all efforts are the easiest to succeed.Close the case early to avoid long nights and dreams.

Lvyi was obedient, and went all the way to the blacksmith's shop, whispering a few words, the blacksmith put down the guy and followed Lvyi to the county government.

At this time, if someone who knows kungfu saw the two walking side by side, he would be able to see that both of them are masters of the world with internal strength.

The difference is nothing more than the difference between having a small stove and not having a small stove.

As soon as the blacksmith arrived, the rhythm in the courtroom changed.

Later, under the identification of the fake blacksmith, he peeled off the cocoons step by step. When the truth was revealed to everyone, the black panther had already begun to despair of women when he was sent to the army.

It turns out that the more beautiful and soft a woman looks, the more ruthless she is.

Because of the involvement of Bauhinia Island in this case, except Zhou Wu who murdered her husband was sentenced to death, Black Panther and his domineering master were all sent into exile.

From Mo Chou's point of view, she actually liked this way of exile.

If you have the ability to use strength against ordinary people, then you should also have the ability to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.

If she can make the decision, this kind of prisoner who has not committed any capital crimes and is inescapable should be sent to exile.

The place of exile was set at the border between Da Song and neighboring countries.

With this layer of buffer, it may also be used as a defensive barrier.

Thinking of this, Mochou raised her eyebrows, maybe she can really decide this matter.

After all, the emperor died, but she wanted to enter the palace to escort him.

......

At the end of the trial of this case, the case that Zhang Yinhua committed many years ago was not exposed. Zhang Yinhua was very relieved.

While Zhang Yinhua breathed a sigh of relief, Mochou breathed a sigh of relief because of Master Bao and Mr. Gongsun's questions.

"The blacksmith is probably not the original blacksmith, right?" On this day, the second day after the case was over, in the study room that the county government had temporarily arranged for Mr. Bao, Mr. Bao suddenly asked Mo Chou such a question.

Mochou ate the watermelon, looked up at Mr. Bao, tilted his head, and looked innocent, "Is Mr. Bao asking me?"

Master Bao smiled, turned to look at Gongsun Ce, Gongsun Ce took a step forward, and told Mo Chou their speculation.

"Ordinary blacksmiths have fire blisters and burn scars on their hands, calluses are thick, and bone knots are hypertrophy. But the one who came to testify yesterday, although he also has calluses on his hands, is not the hands that blacksmiths would have. In addition, before Mrs. Zhan came today, the students asked Zhanwei some tricks to change his face in the Jianghu. The 'blacksmith' yesterday happened to have some marks on his hair and cheeks. Therefore, Mr. Bao and the students concluded that the blacksmith yesterday was not A real blacksmith, I just don't know if Mrs. Zhan arranged for this person."

Lying on the grass, did the ancients all go out with a magnifying glass, so that such a small flaw was seen by them?

and also,

Zhan Zhao, you prodigal man with elbows out, do you cheat your wife like this?

Sighing secretly in the bottom of her heart, Mo Chou took out her handkerchief, wiped her hands, and then affirmed Mr. Gongsun's words with a calm face and a tone that hurts her eggs.

"The blacksmith who testified against the Zhou Wu family yesterday was indeed arranged by Mo Chou."

Master Bao and Gongsun Ce exchanged glances, and then Master Bao asked Mo Chou, "Why did Mrs. Zhan make such arrangements?"

Why?

Just to keep you from knowing too much.God knows if the real blacksmith is here, you will bring up the old years just because of a mole between the eyebrows.

Mo Chou got up, and bowed to Master Bao, "Mo Chou was impatient, so she made such a bad plan. She didn't have malicious intentions to hide it from Master Bao. Please forgive me, Master Bao."

Master Bao nodded, looked at Mo Chou, and signaled Mo Chou to continue talking. "Mo Chou thought that when the nails were found in this case, the murderer had locked up two people. One was Zhou Wu, and the other was Zhou Wu's lover, Hu Xiba.

Among the two, Mo Chou discovered that Zhou Wu was a woman from a small county after all, with limited vision and no deep scheming.So Mo Chou used her as a breakthrough point.The murder weapon was a seven-inch iron nail, its size and shape were rare in the market, Mo Chou thought it must be custom-made by a blacksmith.So people pretended to be blacksmiths and went to the Yamen to give false testimony.

There is only one blacksmith in Lianjiang County. If it was really Zhou Wu's work, she must have found this blacksmith.The blacksmith testified that it was her custom-made iron nail, which could defraud her.Secondly, if it wasn't for her, she wouldn't take the blame for others, she would definitely reveal the real murderer. "

Because yesterday's case was tried very neatly, before Mr. Bao sent someone to find the blacksmith with nails, Mo Chou asked Lvyi to call the fake blacksmith to the court.

Of course, before the fake blacksmith went to court, he also asked some clues he knew from the real blacksmith.

The fake blacksmith was not afraid to point out that Zhou Wu was the one who ordered the order. Zhou Wu was stunned and refused to admit it at first, but the fake blacksmith insisted that it was her. Zhou Wu had a guilty conscience and had to admit her. It was the person who made the iron nails, and said that she couldn't bear Zhou Qingbai's torture before killing him by mistake.Those who came and went all pleaded guilty.

"Madam Zhan has such a clever idea. It's just that why didn't you just let the real blacksmith go to court, but why did you arrange a fake blacksmith instead?"

Mo Chou lowered her eyes and sighed, "Mo Chou originally wanted the real blacksmith to testify in court, but the real blacksmith insisted that he didn't remember too much, and only vaguely remembered that a customer disguised as a man ordered the nail. Seeing him like this, Mo Chou was afraid that he would be self-defeating even if he went to court, so he had to ask someone to pretend to be a blacksmith to defraud Zhou Wu."

After a pause, Mo Chou said again, "It's because Mo Chou was a little impatient. She always thought about going to Xiangyang as soon as the case was over, and then she took the wrong lead. Now think about it, if Mrs. Zhou had calmed down a little that time, this case would have been better. It’s unknown if there will be another storm.”

Master Bao and Gongsun Ce are smart people, they knew that Mo Chou must have other intentions this time, but they couldn't think of the answer for a while.

In addition, they really couldn't imagine that getting a fake blacksmith to go to court would have anything to do with her, so even if they knew what Mo Chou was hiding, in the eyes of Mr. Bao and Gongsun Ce, because of their inexplicable belief in Mo Chou's character, it was not a problem. Did not pursue the matter too much.

It's just that besides this matter, there are other things, Lord Bao and Gongsun Ce want to ask.

Lvyi stood outside the door, listened to the conversation inside, rolled her eyes, turned back to their yard, took out a small letterhead, and wrote two lines of small characters with a special pen and ink.

Because the characters written with this special pen and ink will not be found to be newly written, that's why Lv Yi dared to fool Lord Bao and Gongsun Ce like this.

Holding the small letter, Lv Yi deliberately ran out of Mr. Bao's study with messy steps.

"Miss, something serious happened in the capital."

Mo Chou had just finished those 'reasons' and was thinking about what to say next when she heard Lv Yi's voice, her eyes lit up, she stood up quickly, and walked to the door of the study.

"What happened? Why are you shouting so much?"

Lu Yi took a look at Mo Chou, and handed her the small envelope.Mo Chou hadn't realized what Lvyi's glance meant just now, but when she took the letterhead and saw what was inside, she realized that Lvyi had come to save her.

Good girl, I didn't hurt you in vain.

Mo Chou took a deep breath, then walked back to the study with the letterhead, her expression changed.

"My lord, something happened in the capital. Please take a look." Mochou said while putting the letter on Master Bao's desk.

Lord Bao lowered his head and picked up the opened letterhead, and quickly finished the two lines of small print on it.

When those two lines of small characters were read, the letter signed slipped from Mr. Bao's hand to the desk again.

Seeing this, Gongsun Ce and Zhan Zhao surrounded him.Zhan Zhao glanced at Mo Chou, while Gongsun Ce picked up the letterhead on the desk and read it out.

"On the full moon night of the prince, the Empress Dowager Liu rebelled. The emperor was assassinated and died, and Concubine Pang Guifei also passed away. Shops in the capital are not allowed to do business, and the mansion has lost nearly four floors of income this year..." Gongsun Ce finished reading, followed Like Mr. Bao, his expression also changed.

"I kept a few carrier pigeons, just for daily correspondence. I didn't expect to receive such news today." Mo Chou waited for Lord Bao and Gongsun Ce to react, and said such a sentence.

Mr. Bao and Gongsun Ce knew about raising pigeons in the humble house.They traveled all the way, and it's not like they didn't see Mo Chou receiving letters along the way.

Because the letters received by Mo Chou had been treated specially.So when Zhan Zhao or Gongsun Ce came to see it occasionally, it was just some household affairs in the capital, or something about the family's shop Zhuangzi.

After Mochou read the letter and handed it to Lv Yi for safekeeping, Lv Yi would use the code book to translate the real message to be conveyed inside.

Lord Bao couldn't care less about these trifles at this moment, he got up and walked out of the study first, knelt down towards the direction of the capital, and then called out to His Majesty.

Yan Dong walked a little further with the knife in his arms, stood still and frowned watching Master Bao and others knelt and cried there.

Staring blankly at these people in front of him, he didn't understand which song this was singing~

In Zhengzhou last month, I knelt and laughed.

In Fuzhou this month, I was kneeling and crying.

What are these officials thinking?

Thinking of this, Yan Dong felt that he was in a good position today, and if he followed his usual habits, he would probably suffer a lot.

The emperor's death, to Mr. Bao, was an extremely heart-wrenching event.Therefore, after bowing down, Mr. Bao seemed to lose his energy for a while.

"Tell people to pack their luggage, and we will set off for the capital right away." The emperor said, as a courtier, Master Bao was duty-bound to go back.

"Yes, the students will do it now." Gongsun Ce replied immediately after hearing the words.

Master Bao nodded, waved to Gongsun Ce to arrange, and then took another look at Zhan Zhao and Mo Chou, and sent them away as well.

Mo Chou glanced at Lord Bao, and then left the study together with Zhan Zhao who was also worried about Lord Bao, leaving a quiet space for Lord Bao to think about Emperor Renzong who had gone away.

"Counting the days, it has been more than a month since the emperor was assassinated. Logically speaking, the news should reach here." After leaving the study, Zhan Zhao, Mochou and Gongsun Ce happened to leave the yard together.

Mo Chou nodded, "Yes, it should be soon."

It's too late to say it's too late, when the three of Mo Chou were talking, the people from the capital finally arrived in Lianjiang County after running to the death of a few horses.

Mo Chou looked down at the dress on her body, whispered something to Zhan Zhao, and went back to her yard to change into a plain dress.

Thinking of Zhan Zhao who was still busy with Gongsun Ce, Mo Chou had to say that Zhan Zhao's bright red fourth-rank official uniform really saved a lot of trouble.

She was also dressed in red, and she needed to change it out, but Zhan Zhao didn't need it.

Where does this go?

Go back to your room and change your clothes, and ask Zhang Yinhua to come over.After all, they were going back to the capital soon, and they always had to say goodbye to Zhang Yinhua, and ask her to help prepare some dry food for the road.

Not long after, Zhang Yinhua rushed over after hearing the news.

As soon as Zhang Yinhua entered the room, she knelt down on the ground with a plop.
