(5) Teasing and counter teasing

Bao Zheng raised his hand to Bai Yutang and made a gesture of invitation in the direction of the Yamen, "Come into the Yamen and talk."

Bai Yutang thought for a while and finally walked into the Yamen.

Dao Xingfeng looked at Bao Zheng, "Master Bao claims to be fair and honest, but he seems to be partial..."

Bao Zheng waved his hand, "I don't need you to teach me how to handle a case. Today you made a rude statement and made trouble. I think you are a first-time offender. I won't argue with you. YOU won't do it again!" After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and returned to the Yamen.

Pang Ji curled his lips, thinking that seeing Heizi's demeanor, he turned around and went into the Yamen. He was also a little curious about Bai Yutang.

Dao Xingfeng thought for a while at the door and felt that the situation had changed. He did not expect that Bao Zheng would suddenly come here on patrol. He asked his men to go back to the inn to settle down first and make long-term plans.

Soon, even the pedestrians left. Gongsun was still standing near the inn, holding the fourth son in his arms.

"Dad." The fourth son held the reins of the donkey and asked Gongsun, "When are we going back?"

"Hmm..." Gongsun felt that it was necessary to tell Bao Zheng what had just happened. After all, he had some friendship with Bai Yutang, and there was no reason for him to suffer injustice and not reveal any clues he had.

After thinking about it, Gongsun ran to the Yamen Gate with his little fourth son in his arms.

In front of the door, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu stood.

When Zhang Long saw Gongsun arriving at the door, he asked politely, "Sir, what's the matter?"

"Uh..." Before Gongsun could speak, someone said, "It's okay, let them in."

While he was talking, Zhan Zhao ran out and reached out to take the fourth child from Gongsun's arms, "I almost forgot about you. Come in and sit down. Master Bao said he would treat you to some sweets."

The fourth son pursed his lips, put his arms around Zhan Zhao's neck and asked him to carry him into the yamen. Gongsun was helpless - the fourth son really didn't want to part with Zhan Zhao, and he was cheated after they only met him twice.

Entering the yamen guest room, Bao Zheng and Pang Ji were sitting in the main seats. Bai Yutang was sitting in the guest seat. The maid in the yamen was staring at Bai Yutang while delivering tea. When she went out, she bumped into Zhan Zhao who ran in with his little fourth son in his arms. , turned around to stare at the young and old, and when she turned around she saw a beautiful scholar running in... The little maid felt dizzy and couldn't get over all the beauties!

Seeing that everyone seemed to be talking about serious matters, Gongsun wanted to take the fourth son to avoid them, but Bao Zheng asked him to sit down, "Mr. Gongsun, please sit down."

Gongsun was a little restrained, but he still sat down.

Zhan Zhao ran around in the yard holding his little fourth son, who made him giggle. Gongsun glanced outside, then at Bao Zheng, and saw him sizing up Bai Yutang while drinking tea, with a natural and easy-going expression.

Gongsun's understanding of Bao Qingtian became a little deeper, and he was not so unkind.

"Bai Shaoxia, where were you on the night of the incident?" Bao Zheng asked Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang put down his tea cup and said without any nonsense, "When was the night of the crime?"

"About a month ago."
