When everyone came to the hall, Bai Yutang had been waiting for quite a while.Seeing Zhan Zhao walking behind Mr. Gongsun, he frowned, thinking on his knees, he knew that the cat would definitely follow!Forget it, it's better to be under his nose than to run out by himself.

As soon as Bao Zheng came in, all his attention was attracted by the white-clothed young man who was around Bai Yutang's age, and before he could ask, he saw that man fell down and bowed: "Caomin Bai Yunsheng has seen Master Bao."

Bai Yunsheng... surnamed Bai?Could it be Bai Yishi's relatives, how could he come here.

"Master Bai, please stand up." Lord Bao walked slowly to the first seat, waved his hand, and said gently, "Let's all sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Mr. Bao." Everyone took their seats one after another.Bai Yutang and Mr. Gongsun stood side by side, pulling Zhan Zhao, who was shaking his head and smiling wryly, to sit on Bao Zheng's lower chair, and Bai Yutang carefully fetched a cushion and put it on the backrest.

"Cat, be careful." He said lightly, and the man smiled and patted the back of his hand.

Bai Yunsheng looked curiously at his second uncle busy, and also took the opportunity to take a closer look at this long-famous "Royal Cat" Mr. Zhan who had never had the chance to meet.Elegant and elegant, gentle as jade, and inadvertently revealing a trace of arrogance, Zhan Zhao really deserves his reputation... However, his face seems a little pale.

"Guard White," Master Bao cleared his throat and asked, "What's going on here?"

"Your Excellency, please forgive me." Bai Yutang presented the note in his arms to Master Bao, and spoke slowly, telling the whole story of the trip:

The owner of Deyuelou, Shao An, had left the teahouse three days ago. Before he left, he asked his partner Bai Yunsheng to take care of the business of the teahouse.Bai Yutang checked it, and the man seemed to have been tortured and fell asleep in a drowsy state.The shopkeeper and the waiter of the servants in the building don't know the origin of this person, they only know that this person suddenly appeared in the building one day, and Shao An ordered to take good care of him.

"Oh? Where is this person now?" Mr. Bao stroked his beard, turned his face slightly, and saw Bai Yunsheng sitting upright, with a very calm expression, as if he didn't know anything about it.

"I've already brought him back, and now he's placed in the side room." Bai Yutang said, but he was wondering if he should follow someone up and tell him.

"There are Laobai guards." Master Bao said, his eyes slid past Mr. Gongsun's face, and the latter got up knowingly and left the hall.

"When did Mr. Bai come to Bianjing?" After watching Gongsun Ce leave, Bao Zheng turned to the young man in white on the left.Bai Yunsheng got up to return the gift, and after sitting down, he talked about the matter of taking part in the ceremony examination in Bianjing in the future.

Bao Zheng seemed to be in a good mood to test the young man's studies, and nodded approvingly: "Mr. Bai has such knowledge at a young age, and his future is limitless."

"Predecessors praised me, but my late students are ashamed. My lord called me 'Yunsheng'." Bai Yunsheng stood up and bowed.

"Why do you need to be humble, Yunsheng. The Ministry of Rites examination is approaching, so don't be careless. You have to prepare well." Bao Zheng glanced at Bai Yutang not far away, and then said, "I heard that you settled down in Juxian Tower. Not very appropriate. If it is convenient, it is better to stay in Kaifeng Mansion for the time being, and have a family relationship with the white guard."

Bai Yunsheng smiled and said, "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. Yunsheng wrote about Mr. Bao."

"Guard Bai..." Bao Zheng nodded to Bai Yutang, the man got up and cupped his hands, and went out with Bai Yunsheng, presumably to arrange a resting place for him.Before leaving, he narrowed his eyes and whispered a warning to his family, Lord Yumao, not to mess around, and wait for him to come back to pick him up.

Here, Zhan Zhao also smiled wryly.

"My lord, if you keep Yun Sheng, are you worried that he will be implicated in this matter?" Zhan Zhao asked the thoughtful Master Bao.

"Well," Bao Zheng opened the note and carefully identified the direction of the strokes, "it's about the princess, we have to be careful."

At this time, Gongsun Ce walked in while wiping his hands.

"How is it?" Bao Zheng raised his head and asked.

Gongsun Ce walked up to Zhan Zhao, lifted the teapot to a cup of tea and drank it all in one go. After a while, he held the cup and frowned and said, "It's not good." It's beyond damaged.

"The executioner is a beast! It's a miracle that he survived until now. The reason why he is so sleepy is that someone gave him a 'sinking dream'." Gongsun Ce put down his teacup, and Zhan Zhao thoughtfully filled it up for him.

"Shen Meng? This is not a drug." Zhan Zhao said, Shen Meng medicine has the same properties as his name, it is not a drug, but a tranquilizing drug that makes people fall asleep.

"If it weren't for the effect of 'Shen Meng', that person would have died long ago." Gongsun Ce sat down and drank slowly this time, "He may know something, so he was tortured like this. Save him Seeing that he was dying, the people gave him this medicine to temporarily prolong his life. Once the medicine is removed, this person will go to the end." He looked up at Bao Zheng, who was sitting in the front seat, this person would definitely bring useful benefits Information, what should adults do?

Bao Zheng thought for a while, then asked in a deep voice: "Is he really not alive?"

Gongsun Ce spread his hands and shook his head: "Even a god can't save him. If he doesn't understand the 'Shen Meng', he still has half a month to live. If I want him to wake up, I can only make him wake up." Sober up for an hour." Gongsun Ce's medical skills are not to be underestimated, even doctors in the Tai Hospital can't compare.Of course, it's not that no one is better than him, maybe that "medical fairy" can make that person live a few more hours.

"Since that's the case, sir, please let him wake up. This person must have news about Shao An, and this is the only thing that matters to the princess." Bao Zheng stood up while supporting the round table next to him.It's not that he is cruel, this matter can't be done, and the officials can't explain it.

Zhan Zhao followed and stood up, Gongsun Ce curled his lips when he saw it, and helped the man without saying anything.

"Oh, that's right." Gongsun Ce clapped his hands, "I forgot to say that the drug used in the imperial palace and this 'Shen Meng' came from the same way." Among the few people who took medicine, only the guard woke up in a daze, and the others were still sound asleep.Does this mean that there is a relationship between the two?

In the ear chamber, under the acupoint of Mr. Gongsun's golden needle, the man covered in bruises gradually woke up.As soon as he opened his eyes, he stared at the person who gave him the needle vigilantly. Hei's thin hand, which was as thin as a chicken's claw, unexpectedly grabbed Gongsun Ce's wrist.

"Where is this place?! What did you do to my junior brother??!" He asked anxiously, with a hissing sound in his throat.

Gongsun Ce gently took his hand away, and said gently: "This is Kaifeng Mansion, I am Master Gongsun Ce, we haven't seen your junior brother, do you need our help?"

"Kaifeng Mansion?" The man took a deep breath, "Is it really Kaifeng Mansion? I want to see Master Bao! Where is Master Bao?!"

Only then did Bao Zheng turn around from behind Gongsun Ce, and said in a deep voice, "This residence is here, do you have something to say?"

With a dark and dignified face, and that uprightness that no one can pretend to be, it really is Mr. Bao who is upright, honest and selfless.There was a burst of steam in the man's eyes, and he was about to sit up as soon as he stretched the bed.

Gongsun Ce hurriedly pressed the man's shoulder lightly, and said, "Save your energy, just lie down and answer."

The man stared blankly at his hands, then suddenly smiled and said, "Mr. Gongsun, am I running out of time?" He could barely feel the pain in his body, and his spirit was surprisingly vigorous.

Gongsun Ce looked at him with pity, but didn't speak.Bao Zheng interjected: "If you have grievances, just explain to this government, and this government will find out the truth for you."

"Hehe..." The man smiled softly, and then raised his head with piercing eyes, "If that's the case, then don't waste time, Xiao Ke Dingyuan is one of the craftsmen who participated in the construction of the tomb of the late emperor. Master Bao Please sit down, I have something very important to report to the emperor."

The three people in the room were all stunned, and the man's eyes were burning, and he said word by word: "Xia Guo intends to steal the 'Book of Heaven' to endanger our Great Song Dynasty!"

When Bai Yutang found Zhan Zhao, the man followed Mr. Bao out of the ear room.

"Guard Zhan, Guard Bai, our residence is going to enter the palace soon, you two will go with me." After Master Bao finished speaking, he turned around and went to his room to change into official uniforms.

Bai Yutang looked at Master Bao's back in wonder, and stretched out his hand to hold Zhan Zhao's hand: "Well, the pulse condition is fine. Mao'er, why did your lord enter the palace so late?"

Zhan Zhao gently pulled his mouse's paw away, and said solemnly, "Yutang, are you sure Yunsheng doesn't know anything about Shao An?"

"Yunsheng won't lie to me. What happened?" Bai Yutang frowned. He was always at ease with this nephew, who was only one year younger than him. Seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.However, looking at the cat's expression, it seemed that something was serious.

Zhan Zhao pursed his lips, lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Yunsheng and Shao An are partners in opening a teahouse, and Shao An is the biggest suspect in kidnapping the princess. Your Excellency is worried that Yunsheng will be involved, and the emperor will embarrass him."

"Probably not, he really doesn't know anything. If we can catch Shao An as soon as possible, Yunsheng will be fine." Bai Yutang comforted, he didn't expect Maoer and the others to care about Yunsheng so much.Just now the third brother was still yelling in the yard why Mr. Bao put his nephew under house arrest. Fortunately, Yun Sheng was sensible and didn't take it seriously, and the fourth brother explained it.

At this time Master Bao also came out wearing his official uniform, and everyone rushed to the palace in a hurry.On the way, Bai Yutang felt the feeling of being watched again.Zhan Zhao and him looked at each other, and they both raised their vigilance, but fortunately, nothing happened along the way.

In the imperial study, Bao Zheng reported the investigation results to the emperor alone.

"So, Shao An is the one who is most likely to kidnap the princess?" Zhao Zhenduan sat behind the case.

"Yes." Bao Zheng replied, "Princess Shengguo gave a note to the white guard before she descended, with the words "Deyue Tower" written on it. The patrolling guards learned that Princess Shengguo had come to visit Princess Ling that night. The princess had already rested at that time, so the two did not meet. However, the attendants of Princess Shengguo seemed to see a figure floating into Princess Ling's bedroom. The princess wanted to call the guards to search together, but the princess stopped her. Later, Princess Shengguo called the guards outside the bedroom on the grounds of sending them off. Although the guard who saw the figure that night had already married the princess to Xia Guo, but still It can be deduced that someone did infiltrate Princess Ling's palace that night, and Princess Shengguo knew the infiltrator and covered them. The person who made friends with the two princesses in Deyue Tower was the boss Shao An." Bao Zheng I deliberately skipped the matter of Bai Yunsheng.

"What a daring villain, he dared to rob the princess." Zhao Zhen patted the table again. He knew that Lingling and the boss of Deyuelou had a good relationship, but he never thought it would lead to such a result. "Where is he now?" Where?!" This bastard actually used drugs to rob Lingling while she was taking a bath, what is he so happy about? !

"It has long since fled without a trace. But I heard from the people in his shop that he went to the south."

"Since that's the case, Bao Qing, immediately issue a sea arrest document and arrest Shao An!"

Hearing this, Bao Zheng bowed and said: "The emperor calms down, I have something to report, which is also related to Shao An."

"Say!"

"Before Shao An left, he asked his subordinates to send one person to Kaifeng Mansion." Bao Zheng looked up and saw Zhao Zhen's surprised and confused eyes, "That person is a craftsman who built the mausoleum for the late emperor, and he is one of the missing people in Xiangfu County. .”

"Oh?" Zhao Zhen came out from behind the case and asked, "Why didn't Bao Qing bring him into the palace?"

"I am incompetent," Bao Zheng said sadly, "this man was severely tortured by the Xia people, and he was dying when he arrived at the Kaifeng mansion. He passed away after he finished speaking. This is his confession." He took out a bag from his bosom. Tie up the roll paper.

Zhao Zhen grabbed it and unfolded it, and after reading it at a glance, he felt a little unsteady under his feet.

"This... this..." He stretched out one hand to support the case, feeling dizzy and unable to control himself, "If that's the case, Chunni is in danger!"

"What?!" Bao Zheng looked up in astonishment, and Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao outside the door rushed in without being summoned.
