There are many honest and honest officials in history, and the story of Bao Zheng has been passed down to this day, and has been adapted into various film and television works, which appear in front of us and make us admire him even more. In many film and television dramas, Bao Zheng's side is also followed by several characters, who can write and fight, and help Bao Zheng solve many difficult cases.
So after Bao Zheng's death, where did Gongsun Ce and others around him go? The ending is heartbreaking.
Just don't be
Bao Zheng was born in 999 AD, at the age of 28, he entered the imperial government as an official, but in order to take care of the logging, he simply resigned from the official and returned to his hometown, and later his parents died, he kept filial piety for his family for three years, and his fellow villagers repeatedly persuaded him to enter the dynasty in 1037 AD to accept the emperor's arrangement.
First of all, he went to the Anhui region to hold an official position, and when he was an official in Anhui, he did not associate with the local corrupt officials and was also excluded. In 1041 AD, he went to Duanzhou as the prefect, which was rich in Yantai, and other officials would take advantage of their positions to embezzle the famous Yantai.
However, Bao Zheng was also unable to take the Fang Yantai home after his term of office expired. In 1056 he came to Kaifeng as an official here, where he handled many difficult cases, rectified the bureaucracy, and reformed the litigation system. In order not to let the common people be oppressed by the officials of the government again.
It was simply ordered that the gates of Kaifeng Province be opened, and the complainants could directly enter the court and present the complaint to the officials to state their grievances. Kaifeng, as a lot of imperial relatives and relatives in Tokyo, colluded with each other, and the common people were often bullied, and after Bao Zheng arrived here, he was not afraid of the strict law enforcement of the powerful and did not favoritism.
Bao Zheng's fame also grew, and as a result, many literary works about him appeared. In 1062, bao Zheng died of illness at the age of 64, and after his death, the emperor personally mourned him.
Zhan Zhao
During the period when Bao Zheng was in charge of Kaifeng Province, there were also many people around him, and Zhan Zhao, who was highly skilled in martial arts, always accompanied him to help him severely punish corrupt officials, it is said that this person is a native of Changzhou Prefecture, full of heroism, qi YuXuan, he began to learn martial arts at a young age, martial arts are strong, especially good at light skills, but also swordplay.
He is humble and courteous, very warm-hearted, and very respected. When he came to Bao Zheng's side, he was in his 20s, when he was about to enter Beijing to take the exam, he encountered a case at the Golden Dragon Temple, Zhan Zhao saw it and helped him, saved the other party's life, and later repelled the robbers in the Tulonggang area. Many achievements have been made.
Later, he was elected to the emperor, who saw him as handsome and strong in martial arts, and made him a four-pin guard with a sword, after which he served in Kaifeng Province. This martial artist originally walked in the rivers and lakes, but finally stood behind Bao Zheng to help him deal with the case and capture the criminal.
Zhan Zhao is strong in martial arts, chivalrous and courageous, and has a high reputation both in the official arena and in the jianghu. But after The death of Mr. Bao, the news about him gradually disappeared. Later generations have speculated that he is likely to be hidden in the jianghu, after all, he is just a person with high martial arts, although he has an official position, but his position is not very high.
At that time, the court was rampant, and during the period of following the adults, they also offended many powerful people. After Bao Zheng's death, there was no one to help them, and the best choice was to go back to the hidden rivers and lakes and stay away from the court, so as to save his life. Including the dynasty Mahan Zhang Long Zhao Hu at that time, several people were most likely also retired to the jianghu.
Gongsun Ce
At Bao Zheng's side there was also a figure who could be called a strategist, who was resourceful and knowledgeable, and served as a master in Kaifeng Province, this person was Gongsun Ce, who also designed three swords and knew medical skills. When he went to Chen prefecture with Bao Zheng, he was made the main book by Emperor Renzong, which is what we often call the master.
Later, he was awarded the official position of Liupin for his meritorious service in the process of making water. In many film and television works, he is a talented and knowledgeable person, he has a calm and humble personality, and often calls himself a student to adults. When following the other party out to find clues, he often dresses himself up as a fortune teller.
When he tried the case in Kaifeng Province, he also created a torture device Pear Blossom Rain. It is said that Bao Zheng once arrested a female thief, who turned out to be the biological daughter of Bao Gongsun Ce for many years, and he wanted to shield his daughter after learning the news, but in the end the two were still captured and wanted to die to apologize.
During the execution, he was dissuaded by Zhan Zhao, and later gave up his desire to die. After Bao Zheng's death, Gongsun Ce's ending was not very good, he also offended many people during his period of following the adults, and the final ending is not recorded in detail, but we guess that it is nothing more than two.
One is to be victimized by adulterers, and the other is to simply quit the court, away from the elite, and live the life of an ordinary person.
epilogue
When Bao Zheng was alive, he led the people around him to uphold justice in Kaifeng Province, did not fear the powerful, and single-mindedly served the people, but after his death, these righteous people did not have a good ending, whether it was retreat to the countryside or death, this was not the end they deserved, and it also made future generations very sad.
