The Mid-Autumn Festival is getting closer and closer. In addition to the people in the palace who are busy with Concubine Zhang's birthday, ordinary people in the capital are also busy with their family reunions.

At this time, in every brothel, "Water Tune Getou" is being played and sung

When will the bright moon come? Ask the blue sky for wine. I don’t know the palace in the sky. What year is it?

Turning to Zhuge, low and beautiful households, no sleep in the light, there should be no hatred, what is long and farewell, people have sorrows and joys, and the moon has cloudy and sunny waxes and wanes.

It seems that since Hwarang chanted this poem, this poem will be sung non-stop every Mid-Autumn Festival.

Occasionally walking on the street, I can hear many people humming softly.

This feeling is very refreshing, but Hwarang can't feel it, because he didn't really write the lyrics, so how others sing it has nothing to do with him. Hwarang would really feel happy if he relished the story of how Hwarang solved the case back then.

Because the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, even though he might have to go to the palace that day, Bao Zheng still asked Wang Chao and Ma Han to buy some food. He thought so. Wait, I always have to go there, Sikong Tu will exchange with those people behind the scenes at night, the Mid-Autumn Festival is not a good time, so they decided to have a good time on the night of August [-]th, which is tomorrow night.

I haven't seen friends for many years, if I don't get drunk, it's really unreasonable.

But things are not as simple as Bao Zheng imagined.

Dynasty Mahan was sent out, but when they came back, they did not bring back any food, not even a moon cake, they only brought back a crying woman.

The woman looked normal, crying hoarsely. After Chao Mahan took her back to the government office, he immediately went to report to Bao Zheng, saying that someone was coming to report the case.

Since Bao Zheng is the prefect of Kaifeng, whenever someone reports the crime, he must follow up. Therefore, Bao Zheng announced his promotion.

After being promoted to the hall, the woman cried and told the whole story. It turned out that there was a beautiful jade hairpin in the woman's home. It was said that it was a treasure handed down from the Tang Palace. His younger brother Zhang Bu wanted to buy the jade hairpin by force on the pretext of choosing a gift for his sister's birthday. The woman and her husband were not evenly matched. Seeing that the couple refused to sell it, Zhang Bu suddenly reached out to grab it. , and beat the woman's husband to death. The woman knew that she was in a weak position and had no one to turn to. After hearing the woman's narration, the two were very angry, and regardless of Zhang Bu's unusual status, Zhang Kai said that Mr. Bao would definitely stand out for her, so they led her into the Kaifeng government office.

After the woman finished telling the whole story, she was crying again, Bao Zheng frowned slightly, although he felt that the matter was a little troublesome, he felt that the cloth was too disgusting, so he immediately ordered: "Chao Mahan, you two Hurry up to investigate, make sure to investigate this matter clearly, Zhang Long Zhao Hu, you go and capture that piece of cloth."

After Bao Zheng finished speaking, Dynasty Ma Han, Zhang Long, and Zhao Hu were ordered to go. At this time, Zhan Zhao suddenly stood up and said, "My lord, that Zhang Bu's status is not ordinary. I'm afraid he will be arrested. I think it's better to be a subordinate." Go down and go."

Bao Zheng nodded: "Okay, let the Zhan guards go, and bring the Shangfang sword of our house. If Zhang Bu is arrested, he will be beheaded on the spot."

Zhan Zhao took the order and went down immediately.

Hua Lang looked at these and couldn't help sighing, Bao Zheng is really courageous, doesn't he know that if he killed Concubine Zhang's younger brother, Concubine Zhang would be at odds with him.

But if Bao Zheng wasn't so bold, how could he have the reputation of Qingtian.

Therefore, even though Hwarang knew that this matter was a bit troublesome, he still didn't worry too much about Bao Zheng, because he believed that the current emperor would not be so confused as to be indiscriminate.

Chao Ma and Han went there for about a stick of incense, and then investigated the matter clearly. The matter was indeed as the woman said, and they even found a few people to verify it.

Originally, no one dared to testify against Zhang Bu, but when they heard that they were going to Kaifeng Mansion, the common people stood up one after another. Why, because they knew that Bao Zheng enforced the law impartially, he would definitely be able to return the deceased to innocence. And protect them well.

Mr. Bao is not afraid of causing such troubles, so why should they be afraid of such small people, if they refuse to testify because of fear, how can Bao Zheng trust the people, and how can he avenge the people's grievances.

This is how people communicate with each other.

However, after these witnesses arrived, Zhan Zhao and the others had already escorted Zhang Bu, but when they were escorted, Zhang Bu ordered his subordinates to report to his sister in the palace immediately, asking her to beg the emperor to spare him.

Many villains often do this, but the more they do it, the more tense things become, and in the end it just gave Bao Zheng a good reputation of not being afraid of power.

This time, I think it will be no exception.

Zhang Bu was brought to the court. At first he refused to admit it, but under the testimony of so many witnesses, his denial seemed feeble. Although he pleaded guilty, he threatened Bao Zheng, saying that if Bao Zheng dared to touch him, his sister would definitely not let him go.

Bao Zheng snorted coldly, and angrily said: "If your sister is not married to the emperor, she is just an ordinary woman. Since you have pleaded guilty, the government is still afraid that you will fail, so come and execute."

As soon as Bao Zheng gave the order, the yamen servant immediately wanted to pull Zhang Bu under the tiger's head, but at this moment, an eunuch rushed to announce the decree, saying that the emperor had already issued a decree to pardon Zhang Bu's death crime.

Bao Zheng knelt down to receive the decree, but after receiving the decree, he still shouted: Execution.

The eunuch was dumbfounded, and came to intercept him again and again: "Master Bao, the emperor's decree is for this, you...you dare to ignore the decree."

Bao Zheng snorted coldly: "This government did not ignore the imperial decree. This government is only helping the emperor. If this person kills people in the street, if he is not punished, what is the law of our Song Dynasty? Let me ask, who will follow the laws of our Song Dynasty again? The mansion is saving me, Da Song, come and execute the sentence."

The eunuch wanted to say something more, but the yamen over there had already pushed Zhang Bu under the tiger's head, Zhang Bu kept threatening, and finally saw that the threats were useless, so he begged for mercy loudly, but in the end, what he got in return was Bao Zheng's cry: guillotine.
