Goodbye Master Lingshan calmed Gongsun Ce's restless heart a little.He is not afraid of death, but he is not willing to let too many people.His father, mother, and Bao Zheng, Zhanzhao now have the words of Master Linglone, he seems to have found a backer, he has more confidence in his heart, and he is more sure of the future.As long as you stay in this temple for a month, you can have no worries.Tired?
A sudden, very familiar low voice rang in my ears.Gongsun Ce opened his eyes and looked at Bao Zheng who was looking down at him, and bent the corners of his mouth, okay.Bao Zheng stared, his eyes couldn't help but soften, then go back to the wing room to rest, don't sleep here, it's not good to catch a cold.Well.Gongsun Ce nodded, got up, walked behind Bao Zheng, and walked towards the prepared wing.When he arrived at the door of the wing, Bao Zheng stopped, looked at Gongsun Ce, who was one step behind him, and said solemnly, I will go down the mountain now, you can recuperate here, tomorrow I will call Zhao Zhao to come and see you, in the future, every day I will call someone to come up and send you something, you are fine, you are not allowed to run out of the temple.Gongsun Ce was stunned, and subconsciously blurted out and asked, don't you accompany me?
As soon as these words came out, there was a little more ambiguity.Gongsun Ce didn't realize it yet, but Bao Zheng was keenly aware of it, but he didn't change his smile, but his smile was more gentle, I will come to see you, the master said, I can't disturb your recuperation.So, I can't stay too long.Gongsun Ce was a little disappointed in his heart, but he smiled lightly, then you have to come more.It's natural.Sent Bao Zheng away, turned back to the wing, sat cross-legged on the bed, and was in a daze, at this moment he suddenly realized that since he was reborn, he never seemed to be separated from Bao Zheng.The two will meet every day, talk about poetry and Taoism, and investigate the case together, but now, it is the first time that they are separated from Bao Zheng.It's strange that in his previous life, he was also separated from Bao Zheng, and he was separated for three years, but he never felt so lost and lonely.Gongsun Ce thought about it, maybe it was because although he had been separated from Bao Zheng for three years in his previous life, he had lived together for more than 20 years.So, now, not used to it?
After Gongsun Ce came to this conclusion, he smiled, shook his head, put it aside, closed his eyes, slowly settled his thoughts, and began to silently recite the scriptures given to him by Master Lingshan.Besides, Bao Zheng left Lingguang Temple, got into the carriage, and headed towards the Bai family's small restaurant.But after entering the city gate, Bao Zheng got out of the carriage.Bao Gongzi, aren't you sitting?
The honest coachman asked, puzzled.Bao Zheng smiled slightly, no, I want to look around.Although the coachman was puzzled, he still smiled honestly and reminded in a low voice, Bao Gongzi, you should be more careful, there are officials everywhere in the capital.I know, thank you for the reminder.Bao Zheng said very politely.The coachman was a little at a loss, smiled honestly, and said goodbye to Bao Zheng.Bao Zhengmu sent the coachman away, and then walked slowly.Knowing that Gongsun Ce would be fine in a month, Bao Zheng's heart put down a big stone.Thinking about the matter of Qianli Lake, although it was only seen in Gongsun Ce's dream, Bao Zheng believed in Gongsun Ce, since Gongsun Ce dreamed, it would definitely happen, it was better to take advantage of the time now to walk around, first, to understand the situation in the capital, and second, to investigate first.As for the exam, to be honest, after knowing that Gongsun Ce could not take the exam, Bao Zheng was a little disappointed in his heart, but it was his wish for many years to take the exam in the capital, and it was also his aunt's wish, so he would take it anyway.As for what he and Gongsun Ce should do after the exam?
He hadn't thought about this yet, but subconsciously he had already affirmed one thing, leaving Gongsun Ce by his side!
Walking in the capital, casually looking at the roadside stalls, occasionally squatting down to take a look, and also bought a few interesting gadgets for Gongsun Ce, thinking that he would definitely be very boring to live alone in the temple, although Gongsun Ce would definitely smile and say that he could read a book or something.Bao Zheng sighed lightly in his heart, no matter what he does or where he is now, he will always think of him inadvertently.This is the thought.Just as he was about to move forward further, he saw that in the study in front of him, someone was rudely pushing a scholar out.Even your broken painting wants to sell for two hundred taels!
Hum!
Who do you think you are?!
Why can't I!
My paintings are exactly the same as those of the saint today, why can the paintings of the saints be sold for 2,000 taels, I can't!
The scholar seemed unconvinced.Haha what a!
When your painting is also stamped with the seal of the current saint, you can sell it for 2,000 taels!
Haha, the onlookers around also began to laugh, the book was so angry that his face turned red, he wanted to theorize, but he seemed to be unable to theorize, and he looked down sullenly and picked up the calligraphy and painting thrown out by the man.There happened to be a scroll of paintings that rolled to Bao Zheng's feet, Bao Zheng squatted down, picked up the painting, got up and walked to the scholar, this brother, your painting.The scholar looked very embarrassed at this time, looked up at Bao Zheng, grabbed it a little angrily, and said sullenly, thank you.Bao Zheng didn't care, turned around and wanted to leave, after thinking about it, he turned around and whispered to the scholar, if you really want to learn painting, it's better not to copy today's saints.When the scholar heard this, he seemed to be angry, and looked at Bao Zheng coldly, you said that the painting of the saint today is not good?!
Bao Zheng saw that the scholar was angry, and he just smiled indifferently, today's Shengshang's paintings can only be regarded as craftsmen's paintings, and the traces are too heavy, and they have fallen to the lower level.If you want to learn to draw, it's better to find some paintings with aura to copy.Bao Zheng said that, and turned to leave.Therefore, Bao Zheng didn't see the scholar staring at Bao Zheng thoughtfully.Bao Zheng walked slowly all the way, came to a teahouse, walked in, asked for a pot of tea and a plate of peanuts, and poured himself a drink, but his ears were listening to the discussions of the people in the teahouse.Hey, did you hear that?
There are female ghosts in Qianli Lake again!
Really fake!?
Of course it's true, hey, it's really pitiful to say that Yunshang.Oh, I heard that Yunshang is not only beautiful, but also a talented girl!
It's not just a talented girl, that Miss Yunshang knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but it was popular in the entire capital back then.is such a beauty, but she has no choice but to live in the green building.Hey, it's all a love word!
Huh, how do you say?
That Miss Yunshang has both talent and appearance, and she appeared suddenly, is she from an ordinary family?
Besides, Miss Yunshang was very arrogant when she didn't sell her body back then, how could she throw herself into the lake for no reason?
And if you want to say that there must be only one love word that can make such a beautiful woman act like this.Hey, it makes sense!
But what does this have to do with the haunting of the Thousand Miles Lake that we're going to talk about now?
Ahem, it's not that you interrupted me, I don't even know where to go.Oops, you just said that Thousand Miles Lake was haunted last night!
Say, say, what's going on?
I heard that the scholar who took the exam went to guess the poem last night, but he saw a white shadow floating on the Qianli Lake, and the sound of someone stroking the qin.I've also heard that someone has already gone to ask for a mage master!
Hehe, do you think this is really Yunshang's ghost?
Hey, it's hard to say, that Yunshang was trapped by love, and she actually committed suicide by jumping into the lake, and it is difficult to ensure that her resentment will not be dispersed.Come on!
Don't say any more, old man!
When you say that, I get chills.Haha boy, why are you so guts Bao Zheng sat on the side, listening, but the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.Ghosts?
Hehe, that's a lot of fun.Chapter 54 Raising Prestige in Front of the Palace (8) Bao Zheng put down the copper coin and was about to get up, when suddenly two figures came to him.Bao Zheng frowned and looked at the two people in front of him, he knew these two people.Bao Gongzi, my master is invited.One of them said respectfully.Bao Zheng nodded slightly, but his brows were furrowed, the master of these two people's mouths, he knew, but, why did he invite him so suddenly?
Originally, after the Luzhou case ended, he, a little scholar, should have nothing to do with the prince of the current dynasty and the royal nobles.Why do you invite yourself again?
Although, this is indeed a virtuous king, and he is amiable and does not put on a show, but Bao Zheng went to Beijing this time, but he didn't want to have anything to do with such a big official.And now, when he thinks of the case, he will think of Gongsun Ce, who is now recuperating in Lingguang Temple, and his heart will be inexplicably sour.Bao Zheng thought calmly, and silently followed the two people to the box on the second floor of the teahouse.When he entered the box, he saw the gentle and elegant Eight Sages King smiling at him.Bao Zheng's expression remained unchanged, he made a bow calmly and calmly, and said in a low voice, Bao Zheng, a grass people, greeted the Eight Sages King!
Hehe, Bao Zheng doesn't need to be polite, sit down.The Eight Sages King said very kindly, pointing to the seat next to him and motioning for Bao Zheng to sit down.Bao Zheng respectfully thanked him before sitting down beside the Eight Sages King.It seems that Bao Zheng, you are confident about this exam.After taking a closer look at Bao Zheng, the Eight Sages King smiled abruptly and spoke.Bao Zheng replied very calmly, the prince has won the award.Bao Zheng is just doing his best to obey the fate of heaven.Oh, what a sentence, do your best to obey the destiny of heaven!
The Eight Sages King exclaimed, and said very hatefully, if those scholars who rushed to Qianli Lake to die had such an idea as you, how could they die innocently!
When Bao Zheng heard this, he was stunned, and his expression changed slightly and looked at the Eight Sages King, Lord Wang, what do you mean by this?
Someone died?
The Eight Sages King sighed deeply, turned his head and asked solemnly, Bao Zheng, do you believe that there are ghosts and gods in this world?
Bao Zheng was stunned, and then said lightly, the ghost and god said, Bao Zheng only knows one sentence, if you believe it, you have it, and if you don't believe it, you don't have it.The Eight Sages King raised his eyebrows, this sentence is ambiguous, but now there is no time to discuss the ghosts and gods, so the Eight Sages King said solemnly, Bao Zheng, what this king said next is a court secret, you must not talk about it to the outside world.Bao Zheng's heart froze, his expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice, Bao Zheng understands, please speak.The Eight Sages King took a deep breath and said in a low voice, five days ago, the scholars who took the examination in the capital disappeared one after another, and three days ago, the bodies of these missing scholars were found near Qianli Lake, and so far, fifteen corpses have been found, and these corpses have been confirmed to be suffocated to death after an autopsy.Bao Zheng's heart was shocked, fifteen corpses?
Fifteen people have died?!
The Eight Sages King sighed in a low voice, Bao Zheng, this matter made the Holy Lord very angry, and the Holy Lord strictly ordered that this matter must be thoroughly investigated.Be sure to bring the murderer to justice!
Bao Zheng nodded solemnly, Lord Wang, Bao Zheng understood.After a pause, he looked up at the Eight Sages King and asked, It's just that since fifteen corpses have been found, why haven't these people heard rumors?
And fifteen scholars who took the exam were missing?
The Eight Sages King smiled bitterly and said, how could there be no rumors, but they were all suppressed by the imperial court, besides, the fifteen candidates who disappeared were all candidates who had no reputation, and the inn where they lived was also relatively remote, and some of the candidates in it were staying in other people's homes, that is, they had no reputation and no money?

Bao Zheng asked with a solemn expression.The Eight Sages nodded, that's right.Lord Wang, Bao Zheng needs to know a very detailed situation Bao Zheng asked hesitantly, this place is the capital, not Luzhou, if he investigates the case, he needs the assistance of the government.The Eight Sages King smiled, took out a token from his sleeve and handed it to Bao Zheng, holding it, this is given by the emperor, in the process of investigating the case, if someone dares to obstruct it, you will take out the token, and no one will dare to trouble you.In addition, Six Doors will assist you.Bao Zheng nodded, took the token, without any pretension and prevarication, in the eyes of the Eight Sages King, this is what makes Bao Zheng different from other scholars, and it is also what he appreciates.In two words, Bao Zheng is a real person.The two talked about the case again, and Bao Zheng got up and said goodbye.The Eight Sages King is not the one who investigates the case, and he is in a high position, no matter how familiar the situation is, he only knows a little bit of the skin, and the people below must be picking up the good aspects out of awe or flattery, and the real situation of the case has reached the Eight Sages King, but I am afraid that there are only seven or eight points of truth left.If you want to find out the facts of the case, you still have to go to Kaifeng Mansion in person, and maybe you can get around the Qianli Lake.After Bao Zheng got up to say goodbye, the Eight Sages King did not leave immediately, but continued to sit in the wing room and drink alone, and soon, the small door on one side of the wing room was opened, and a person walked out, walked straight to the side of the Eight Sages, and abruptly reached out to take the cup that the Eight Sages King was about to pour wine, and said in a low voice, Lord Wang, drinking hurts your body, and please take care of your body.The Eight Sages King raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at the comer, who was about forty or so, tall and tall, with a good face, revealing an unconcealable majesty, but the eyebrows and eyes were deep and unfathomable, no matter when, the person in front of him did not let people see through.Master Pang should say this to himself.Although this king is indispensable for socializing on weekdays, this king has always been measured, but the master is busy with official business and has a lot of entertainment, so don't get up and hurt your body.Master Pang just calmly put down the wine glass he had taken, sat down, raised his head respectfully and solemnly said, the prince's concern for the lower officials, the lower officials will definitely remember and never forget.As soon as he heard this, the Eight Sages King couldn't help but stiffen his face, what he said seemed to be right, but how did the Eight Sages feel so weird when he heard it, especially the last four words that seemed to be aggravated?
The Eight Sages King simply changed the topic and asked, why did the Taishi have to come with this king just to see Bao Zheng?
Taishi Pang's eyes just flashed slightly, and said lightly, Xia Guan wanted to take a closer look at whether that person was worthy of the prince's trust.This was said very plainly, but the Eight Sages King felt that something was not quite right, but it was just a fleeting thought.So the Eight Sages King smiled slightly, and praised Bao Zheng without hesitation, Bao Zheng is smart, and he is also honest and honest, this king believes that this case will definitely come to light soon in Bao Zheng's hands.Pang Taishi looked at the Eight Sages King, but lowered his eyes, covering up the complex obscurity that was turning in his eyes.By the way, Taishi, in this case, Ming Chong is the chief examiner, and he also needs to care about the life and death of the candidates, so it is better to let him investigate the case with Bao Zheng.The Eight Sages King thought of Cui Mingchong, that Cui Mingchong is an upright official, although he is the son-in-law of the guy in front of him who can't see through it, but he is dedicated to the court and is a talent, if this case that makes the saint angry, Cui Mingchong can solve it with Bao Zheng, it will be a chance for Cui Mingchong.Master Pang thought about it, nodded and said, Yes, Xiaguan Dai Mingchong thanked the prince for his love.The Eight Sages King waved his hand disapprovingly, since the unsolved case had been taken over by Bao Zheng, the Eight Sages King's heart had eased a little for many days, and his mood was a little more relaxed, so the Eight Sages King picked up the wine jug, filled the cup in front of Pang Taishi with wine, and said casually, Come, since you have come here, then don't mention official business today.After a pause, the Eight Sages King smiled again, I don't know if the Taishi still remembers this?
