When Bao Zheng died, Zhan Zhao, the first four products of the imperial family, of course, the status will not be low, and there are countless heroes and good men on the rivers and lakes who are his friends, if he chooses to continue to serve as an official in the dynasty, then with his high martial arts, the treatment must still be good; if he chooses to return to the jianghu to find his brothers, it is not to mention, he can definitely eat everywhere, which is the confidence and charm that a powerful person should have.
