I originally wanted to suppress this person’s arrogance, but I didn't expect that one slip would lead to eternal regret!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Bao Zheng’s words, Gongsun Ce also felt a bit ashamed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about the betel nut and cigarettes?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Gongsun Ce, Bao Zheng also wanted to try the feeling of betel nut plus cigarettes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Guard Zhan has already gone to get them! Recently, the two of us have been consuming a bit much, but these two things are indeed able to refresh the mind!

My good-for-nothing foster son actually offended the Empress Dowager...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Zhang Erhe was explaining, Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce, who was to the side, were both stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because how could Zhang Erhe have a foster son? Didn't he only have one biological son, Zhang Dingding?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Zhang Dingding was also a playboy, compared to the \"stubborn\" Pang Yu, he could be considered kind!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Yu: I’ll say it again, I didn't move the treasury!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Ji: You wicked son, still arguing, go, whip dipped in wine...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Imperial Consort Pang: Brother, just confess!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Vice Minister Zhang says so, could it be that you have obtained the Emperor’s message?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Zhang Erhe curiously, Bao Zheng was confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had originally imprisoned Zhang Cheng because he was afraid that this \"ignorant\" young man would encounter danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now it seemed his background wasn't weak either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Censor-in-Chief and Vice Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices, this was a second-rank official!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Dingding: My father is Zhang Erhe!

Hahahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Laughing proudly, Zhang Erhe couldn't help but feel excited about his own calculation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because just when everyone didn't know whether they should abandon their sons, Zhang Erhe’s foster son had already appeared!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if Zhang Cheng had a conflict with the princess, wasn't that just a small problem between husband and wife?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, even if husband and wife quarreled, wasn't that just a matter of the bed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Kaifeng Prefecture prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Erhe followed Bao Zheng, Zhan Zhao, and the others inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after seeing Zhang Cheng in the cell, everyone couldn't help but twitch their mouths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because at this moment, Zhang Cheng was holding a limited edition \"Illustrated Guide\" and carefully pondering it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Bai Yutang, who was to the side, she was excitedly hugging the Juque Sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also the main reason she hadn't come to disturb Zhang Cheng!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Foster son, you are here, how have you been!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Zhang Cheng, Zhang Erhe hurriedly asked with concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Foster son?
