Extended data:
Bao Zheng was especially praised for its justice and integrity in law enforcement. In Tianchang County, Bao Zheng met a difficult case. One day, a farmer came to the county government and accused the gangster of cutting off the tongue of his cow, demanding to catch the criminal.
It was unprofitable to cut off the ox tongue. Bao Zheng decided that it must be revenge of his enemy, so he ordered the farmer to kill the cow and sell the meat to attract criminals. In the Song Dynasty, it was illegal to slaughter cattle. As Bao Zheng expected, the person who cut the cow's tongue saw the owner kill the cow and wanted to aggravate his crime. Sure enough, he went to the county government to report that he was trapped and the mystery was solved.
