chivalrous cat and righteous mouse

Ben was used by others, and once his use value was lost, he would definitely be killed by those people. "

Bai Yutang looked at his profile and was silent for a while, then walked deep into the woods holding a torch, and said to Zhan Zhao as he walked, "That's it, then wait until you find him and protect him well. Grandpa Bai is tired from standing , go over there and have a look, if you finish nagging, come over to Grandpa Bai."

Zhan Zhao raised his head, looking at Bai Yutang's sash fluttering in the darkness, a gratified smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.The so-called confidant is nothing more than that.

Uchioni

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang followed the aura of the mysterious person out of the secret road and walked into a forest. The two of them wandered around the forest for more than half a circle. It was almost dawn and they didn't find any clues. I had no choice but to leave for the time being, go back to sleep, and report to the adults after dawn.

When the two of them arrived at the gate of the county government office, it was past five o'clock. Zhan Zhao originally wanted to take Bai Yutang back to the county government office for another night of reconciliation, but he saw a boy in his teens waiting outside the door. The two of them quickly bowed to greet them, "Bai Fu has seen Master Wu and Lord Zhan."

Bai Yutang glanced at Bai Fu, didn't speak, walked around him while yawning.Seeing this, Zhan Zhao who was behind him hurriedly gave him a hand, and asked, "It's so dark and frosty this night, why are you standing here alone? Beware of the cold, your fifth master has no one to take care of you."

Bai Fu responded with a grin, "Hey, thank you Master Zhan for your concern. The villain is in good health, so it's okay! Alas, the villain has to go after my master, so farewell!" He went after Bai Yutang.

Zhan Zhao saw his master and servant, one in front of the other, gradually receding, and then he turned around and entered the gate of the county government office, and went back to sleep.

After a nap, when I woke up, it was already high in the sun.Bai Yutang called Bai Fu, who was waiting outside the door, to come in and help him take a bath and change clothes.After everything was packed, it was already noon, Bai Yutang looked through the window at the opposite restaurant, guessing in his heart that Zhan Zhao hadn't eaten yet, so he sent Bai Fu to find Zhan Zhao, and told him that he was waiting in the private room of Fengyi Building. He lifted his foot by himself and passed by first.

Bai Yutang walked lazily, and as soon as he walked to the front of Fengyi Building, the clerk at the door saw him coming, and immediately greeted him enthusiastically, "Master, you are here! Please come inside!"

The guy smiled all over his face, put the rag on his arm, and stretched out his other hand in the direction of the restaurant, making a gesture of invitation.Bai Yutang walked inside with strides, saying, "Give me a private room." The store clerk quickly agreed, and led Bai Yutang to the private room on the second floor.

After entering the private room, Bai Yutang sat down in front of the window so that he could see the scene on the street downstairs.The clerk brought him a pot of tea, a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and a small plate of melon seeds, and placed them in front of him, then bowed to Bai Yutang, and asked, "What would you like to eat?"

Bai Yutang generously took out a piece of silver from his pocket and threw it to the clerk, and said casually, "A pot of pear blossoms is white, you can look at the dishes." Stopping, he glanced at the bowls and chopsticks on the table, and then said to the waiter, "Add another pair of bowls and chopsticks."

The clerk was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood, he replied with a smile, "So I'm going to entertain friends!" Bai Yutang didn't say a word, just looked out the window with his chin on his hands, his eyes were on the people coming and going downstairs. He glanced around, hoping to see the man in the blue shirt.

Seeing Bai Yutang staring out the window without making a sound, the man thought that he was a quiet master, so he rubbed his nose and went downstairs resentfully.

***

Zhan Zhao lay down on the bed, feeling that it was already dawn after not sleeping for a while. He rubbed his swollen head and felt that he seemed to be short of sleep recently. Then he thought about it, when he practiced martial arts with his master back then, he spent the whole night He didn't sleep all night, but he wasn't as tired as he is now. It seemed that he was a little lazy recently.

He got up and ordered his servants to bring in the wooden barrel for bathing and scoop up the water for him.Zhan Zhao went over to test the temperature of the water with his hands, and felt that it was just right, so he blocked the screen, took off his clothes and entered the water.

He leaned against the wall of the barrel, resting his head casually on the edge of the barrel, closing his eyes, allowing his whole body to relax.After soaking for a while, he felt that the water temperature was a little cold, so he came out of the bucket, took a set of clean middle clothes and outer clothes from the cabinet next to him, and put them on. His hair was still wet, so he used a tie to loosen it. A bundle.After he finished dressing, he asked someone to carry the barrel out, while he lifted the giant que and ran to the study to meet Bao Zheng.

After being informed by his servants, Zhan Zhao entered the study and saw Bao Zheng, Gongsun Ce, Yao Ping, and Tian Biao all among them.Zhan Zhao greeted Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce first, and then Yao Ping and Tian Biao also bowed to call for Mr. Zhan. Zhan Zhao waved his hand to avoid their false courtesy, and then stood sideways beside Bao Zheng.Then Bao Zheng continued, "Tian Biao, keep talking."

Tian Biao took the order, bowed slightly and said, "As a person in the Jianghu, I have never had any contact with the government, so how could I have a relationship with Lord Chaozhong? Please be careful!"

Bao Zheng nodded, and then asked Yao Ping, "Yao magistrate, what do you think?"

When Yao Ping heard Bao Zheng calling him, he quickly replied, "My lord, I have indeed received a letter from Lord Wen, saying that Tian Biao is his nephew and ordered my subordinate to take care of me." He took out a letter and handed it to Bao Zheng.

Bao Zheng took the letter, unfolded it, read it carefully, but didn't say anything, just handed the letter to Gongsun Ce beside him.Gongsun took the letter and read it carefully, then Bao Zheng spoke up and asked, "What do you think sir?"

Gongsun Ce handed the letter paper back to Bao Zheng, thought for a moment before answering, "The students don't think this letter was written by Mr. Wen."

As soon as these words came out, Yao Ping was startled, and couldn't help blurting out, "What!"

Bao Zheng ignored Yao Ping's shock, he just stroked his beard and said, "This government thinks so too." He folded the letter paper and handed it to Bao Xing who was behind him, Bao Xing took it knowingly and returned it to the Yao Ping.

Yao Ping unfolded the letter paper, carefully read the content on the paper twice, and then raised his head again, looking at Bao Zheng and Gongsun in confusion. "My lord, I don't understand what your lord and my husband mean, so please tell me clearly."

Bao Zheng looked at Yao Ping and asked, "Magistrate Yao, take a closer look at the letter paper in your hand, is it different from the paper you usually use?"

After listening to Bao Zheng's words, Yao Ping lowered his head and looked carefully at the paper in his hand. Before he could figure it out, Zhan Zhao asked, "It seems a little thinner?"

"Not bad!" Gongsun Ce said immediately, "If this kind of paper is covered with other paper, it can reflect the text on the paper below."

"You mean! This letter was rubbed and then delivered to the county!" Yao Ping suddenly realized.

Holding the sword, Zhan Zhao secretly smiled in his heart, thinking that this idiot Yao Zhixian finally had a flash of light.

Yao Ping was angry for a moment, thought about it carefully, and felt that something was wrong, "If this letter was not written by Mr. Wen, how could it be handed over to the lower official?"

Bao Zheng smiled lightly, "Then I have to ask your subordinates!" As he said that, Bao Zheng gave Bao Xing a wink, and Bao Xing immediately shouted "Bring it up" to the outside.

As his words fell, Dynasty outside the door brought a person in, and the person immediately knelt down with a plop when he entered the room.Zhan Zhao took a closer look, isn't this the sleazy little girl I saw in Yin Hua and Tian Biao's yard before!He looked at Bao Zheng and Gongsun in confusion, not knowing what happened.

Bao Zheng didn't have the time to explain Zhan Zhao's confusion at the moment, he pointed to the girl kneeling on the ground and asked Yao Ping, "Yao Ping, do you recognize this person?"

Yao Ping looked down at the people on the ground, and he replied after a while, "This girl was bought at the gate of the city years ago by the lower officials. I gave her money and told her to bury her father well, and then left her to do things by her side. However, this girl is not smart and always clumsy in doing things, so the next official sent her to the backyard. My lord, do you suspect that she is in the county government office? Collusion between China and outsiders?"

"Last night, the students were talking to Guard Zhan and Young Master Bai in the room. Suddenly, the guard came to report that Xiaotian was missing. The situation was urgent. Guard Guard Zhan ordered the guard to go out to search and went out with Young Master Bai to assist in the search. Everyone focused on Outside, no one has noticed that someone is secretly hiding in the courtyard guarded by Zhan." Gongsun Ce told what happened last night, Zhan Zhao frowned and looked at the people on the ground, thinking that someone really took advantage of him and Isn't Bai Yutang going to make a difference?

Bao Zheng looked at the little girl on the ground and asked Wang Chao, "Wang Chao, did you find her last night?"

Dynasty replied, "Exactly."

Bao Zheng asked the girl again, "Who told you to hide there? What's your purpose?"

The little girl knelt on the ground, pressed her head down, and remained silent.Bao Zheng asked again, but she still refused to say anything.

Seeing that she was gritting her teeth and refused to speak, Yao Ping suddenly threw the letter paper in front of her and asked, "You did this too?"Bao Zheng waved his hand and asked Wang Chao to take her down and put her in prison for now.

Tian Biao saw that there seemed to be no business of his own here, so he cupped his fists and saluted, and said to Bao Zheng, "My lord, but there is no business for the villain? The villain has important affairs in the villa, and it has been delayed for a long time. If there is no villain's It's over, I don't know if I can let the villain go away?"

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce exchanged glances, and then said, "Alright, then pack up and leave." Tian Biao took the order to leave, he went out with his front feet, and Bao Xing followed with his back feet.
