The laws of the Song Dynasty were relatively perfect, and when he was alive, many cases that were wrongly judged were retried or there were some corrupt officials or something, and Bao Zheng also dealt with them strictly. To put it simply, Bao Zheng is a person who starts from the perspective of the people and serves the people wholeheartedly, so he has handled so many cases for so many years and must have made a lot of enemies.
Some people say that after Bao Zheng's death, Zhan Zhao was still a sword-carrying bodyguard in front of the imperial court, continuing to punish adultery and eliminate evil and safeguard the interests of the people. However, some people say that this seems unlikely, because after Bao Zheng's death, Zhan Zhao and his party did not have much power, and it was very likely that they were hunted down and killed by the former enemies and fled.
At that time, Zhan Zhao was the imperial four pins with swords, Lu Fang, Xu Qing, and Jiang Ping were the lieutenants of the six pins, and after Bao Zheng's death, without Bao Zheng's protection, he would definitely be retaliated against by the enemy family, so retiring to the jianghu was the best way for them to seek perfection. It is a pity that the legend of the three heroes and five righteousness has ended, and there is no heroic deed in the world to see the uneven and draw the sword to help each other.
In fact, Zhan Zhao himself is also a person with a strong sense of justice, as a jianghu Haojie, he is willing to serve as an official in the DPRK only out of respect for Bao Gong, Bao Zheng is for the sake of the officials to be clean and honest for the sake of the people, which deeply touches Zhan Zhao, but he also knows the dangers of the officialdom, and if he wants to be a clean official, he naturally cannot avoid offending many powerful people with big backgrounds, and Bao Zheng's death is not only a great sorrow for Zhan Zhao, but also a great blow to the ordinary people of Li.
