Chapter 54 The Cunning Bao Qing

When Bao Qing saw Zhan Zhao's face change drastically, he was shocked and suspicious. Is it so exaggerated? But when Zhan Zhao seemed to have something to say, he seemed willing to reveal it in front of everyone. So Bao Qing waved his hand and signaled everyone to disperse, leaving only Zhan Zhao and Jin Wandao.

The three of them looked at each other for a moment, and Zhan Zhao threw the letter to Jin Wandao. After seeing it, Jin Wandao's face changed drastically.

Bao Qing couldn't help it anymore, and now he was in the dark, so he said, "Zhan Zhao, tell me!"

Upon hearing this, Zhan Zhao hurriedly said, "Sir, this matter is a big deal. Our decree to exempt you from crime has not yet been released, but it is better to cause less trouble!"

Jin Wandao also said bluntly: "Don't put such a secret matter into practice. We'd better pretend that we don't know, otherwise it's not good if we cause trouble!"

What big thing can be said about a letter? Bao Qing was depressed and couldn't help but shouted: "Okay! Jin Wandao, let me talk about it first, what exactly is the so-called thing in this letter?"

Jin Wandao was stunned for a moment, looked at Bao Qing in confusion and said, "Sir, don't know anything about the court? This letter was a reply letter written by Prime Minister Lu of the dynasty to someone in the court, but the letter did not state who it was, and there was no envelope. The letter stated in the letter was a matter of destruction and establishment, and there was also Lu Yijian's seal on it."

Bao Qing was shocked after hearing this. What? Do you want to be Huo Guang? Is this Lu surname so capable? In history, Emperor Renzong seemed to have been doing it until he was old. It is estimated that there is no chance for Lu Yijian to have a decision. Bao Qing had already decided in his mind, that is, if he didn't see it in front of him, otherwise he would really cause trouble. However, Lu Yijian's seal was fun and twisting and strange.

"Since that's the case, we won't get involved. I said, it turns out that we want to rebel. No wonder we make the seal twisted and twisted."

"What? Rebellion? Sir, have you read it carefully? And the seal is like this, it is in seal script!" Zhan Zhao asked.

Jin Wandao was also confused and said, "Sir, if you look carefully, it is not a rebellion, but a desire to abolish the current Queen Guo and make Shang Meiren the queen!"

After hearing what Jin Wandao said, Bao Qing understood that illiteracy is really terrible. However, this time, when Lu Yijian solved the case, he sent Hu Ping to make trouble, completely ignoring his life and death. Could it be that he is really a chess piece at his mercy?

Since this letter has fallen into my hands, I don’t have to be polite to him. I will collect it. It may be of great use in the future. I just don’t know who this person is who colluded with Lu Yijian. By the way, in a few days, I will find some time to ask Fan Zhongyan, the origin of the beauty of Empress Guo, and the affairs in the court.

"Oh, I looked at it roughly. Isn't it just a decree and a queen? Zhan Zhao, you don't have to change your face so much, which makes me think it's a big deal. We don't need to get involved in this secret battle in the court. I'll put away this letter first and talk about it later."

After the two left, Bao Qing took all the money with the big bull, and the big bull was filled with joy.

"Brother Bao, my father wants to invite you to see the crossbow arrow he made!" Zhu Daniu said.

"Okay, by the way, I haven't eaten the noodles cooked by your mother for a long time. I'll cut some beef tonight and take it back to your meal!" Bao Qing said.

When Bao Qing arrived at Zhu Daniu's residence, he happened to meet Mrs. Zhu.

"Scholar Bao is here? It's been a long time since we met! Come in quickly, look, your uncle Zhu doesn't hunt anymore, he is fiddling with his things every day, and he doesn't know how to do some serious business. The family is almost out of trouble!" Mrs. Zhu complained.

Bao Qing was slightly stunned when he heard this, looking at Zhu Daniu in surprise and asked, "What's going on? Aren't we having too much money? Why can't we get rid of the blame?"

Zhu Daniu glared at Mrs. Zhu in anger and said, "Mom, Brother Bao is now an official, the largest official in our Changyuan County, why is he still called a scholar?"

Bao Qing was displeased and said, "You know, your mother is calling this, this is a shame. We are all our family members. Mrs. Zhu is your mother and I, Bao Qing. Besides, you can tell me, what does it mean to be unable to get rid of the blame in this family?"

"This." Zhu Daniu was a little hesitant.

When Mrs. Zhu saw that Zhu Daniu didn't say anything, she said, "Bao Qing is not an outsider. If you don't say anything, I'll say. Bao Qing, although this big nugget and your uncle Zhu have nothing to do, they can be considered as working in the yamen with you. At first I was very happy, but finally someone in our family had a public meal. If you don't have to eat a meal in the future, you are worried about the next meal. Never thought that your uncle Zhu was fascinated by his broken things recently, just bows and arrows, fiddling there every day. The monthly routines collected in the yamen were spent on those broken things. Now, if you don't come today, I'm still worried about how to eat."

Bao Qing felt guilty when he heard this. The Zhu Xiong family was the only relative who came to the Song Dynasty. He had been busy with these bullshit things, but forgot to care about his relatives. It was really not.

Bao Qing glared at Zhu Daniu and said, "Do you have the heart to let your parents starve? My money is your money." After Bao Qing finished speaking, he turned to Mrs. Zhu and said, "Sister Zhu, if you don't have money in the future, you can ask Xiaowen directly. We have too much money now and will never spend it all in several lifetimes. If you are embarrassed to ask for it, you will say that I, Bao Qing, asked you to get it."

After saying that, Bao Qing followed Zhu Daniu to Zhu Xiong's house where he was fiddling with crossbows. Bao Qing looked at it, hehe, it turned out that Zhu Xiong had opened a blacksmith shop here, including hammers, fire tongs, and wind furnaces.

"Hey, Lord Bao is here?" Zhu Xiong then realized that Bao Qing was here, and was quite surprised.

"Uncle Zhu, you should call me Bao Qing, Bao Xiucai is fine. Why, your crossbow box is ready?" Bao Qing asked.

Zhu Xiong was indeed excited when he heard this. He hurriedly pulled Bao Qing to see him and said, "Don't say anything, Bao Qing, your idea is so good. I really made it happen. Come and take a look." Then Zhu Xiong took out a short crossbow and handed it to Bao Qing.

Bao Qing looked at it and saw that the crossbow was finely crafted and had strong bowstrings. The handle on the lower head of the short crossbow was hollow, and there were three short crossbow arrows installed with a clamping spring.

"You made the arrow box into a holder? And this clamping spring, how did you do it?" Bao Qing was very surprised. Unexpectedly, Zhu Xiong was really surprised by these proficiencies.

"Haha, what do you think? I need to improve it. It is best to install five short arrows and make some slightly larger long crossbows." Zhu Xiong said proudly.

Zhu Daniu complained when he heard this, would there be a life in the future?

"Okay!" Bao Qing said excitedly, "Uncle Zhu, you study hard, I don't have anything else. Now I just have a lot of money. I will allocate you 50,000 jin, and you will get thirty short crossbows equipped with five short arrows for me!"

Zhu Xiong was shocked when he heard this and said, "Ah! 50,000 jin? Isn't it too much?"

"Not much, not much, look at how much you can control the production cost of a short crossbow in the end? Just treat the remaining money as your reward!"

Zhu Daniu, who was standing beside him, felt very painful when he saw Bao Qing allocating 50,000 ounces of money to his father. He couldn't help but complain, Brother Bao was throwing the money into this stove?

Just as Bao Qing was wandering around boredly, the court of the Song Dynasty was full of debate.

"Your Majesty, do you know who is around Bao Qing? Your Majesty actually issued an order to pardon all the criminals? Then Zhan Zhao is a complete horse, killing people and robbing people, or the evil thief who killed my nephew back then. Your Majesty, you personally appointed Zhan Zhao as the criminals." Grand Master Pang cried.

The Minister of Works Li Hai also came forward and said, "Your Majesty, there is another person named Qian, beside Bao Qing. It is said that he is the master of the Bagua Hall, who is the fish that escaped the net from the Meihua Gang many years ago. The Nine Wise Kings know the most about this. How can such evil people be forgiven?"

Fan Zhongyan was furious when he heard this and said bluntly: "Li Hai, you may not be able to protect yourself. When Bao Qing submits the evidence of the case, I see what else you have to say. Li Jiujin of the Li family has taken everything. In front of all the officials in Changyuan County, you know everything."

Fan Zhongyan then bowed to Emperor Renzong and said, "Your Majesty, Bao Qing first asked for an imperial edict, and then he received the imperial edict and handled the case. His Majesty made it clear in his previous decree that all the people who made contributions to finding the official silver robbed can be forgiven. What's more, Bao Qing found not only the stolen two million stolen stolen stolen stolen, but also cracked the robbery of military pay many years ago and recovered three million stolen stolen stolen money."

After Fan Zhongyan finished speaking, Ouyang Xiu hurriedly stepped forward to agree. Although the two of them were helping Bao Qing talk in the court, they scolded Bao Qing's whole family in their hearts.

This cunning Bao Qing is really hateful. He asked him to ask His Majesty for his decree to forgive his guilt, but he had already planned to do it. At first, he thought that Bao Qing only asked His Majesty for the purpose of helping Bao Hong get rid of his crime. He also made it clear in the memorial that Bao Hong is actually Bao Qing's future father-in-law. Renzong was determined to solve the case in order to relieve Bao Qing of his worries, so he issued an order to exempt him from his crime. But he knew that Bao Qing had plotted against him and the official family. It turned out that those who were with Bao Qing were all criminals. Bao Qing started by trying to help these people get rid of their crimes, and helping Bao Hong was a cover. Now, he had to rely on his shame to help him!

"Your Majesty, you can't break your promise. Bao Qing is a hero of the Song Dynasty!" Xia Shu thought Bao Qing was good. He helped the Song Dynasty get back so much money, and the key was to have three million pounds of military pay. He, as the Minister of War, had a much better life.

Renzong thought Bao Qing was good and helped him a lot. He really made contributions to the country. If he didn't give him any rewards, he still held the other person's previous braid and kept holding on to his previous braid, which seemed unreasonable. So he thought of Lu Yijian again.
