Gao Yan couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "How can I listen to this plan not like I'm testing Zhang Shumo, but like I'm testing His Second Highness?" ”

Fan Yao smiled: "Don't worry, general, I'm killing two birds with one stone, you can listen to me finish speaking." After Xu Xuan handed over to Zhang Shumo, I will arrange for His Royal Highness to hand over the details of this case with Zhang Shumo, during this period, I will remove everyone in Jing Zhaoyin, and let Zhang Shumo take his people to interrogate Xu Xuan and create an opportunity for His Royal Highness. Zhang Shumo is a smart person, after he learns this news, he will definitely design a trap, either to prevent the Second Highness from saving people, or to directly get rid of the Second Highness, in short, it depends on his choice. However, no matter what he chooses, I will arrange for someone to keep an eye on them, and I will not let His Royal Highness make a difference. ”

Gao Yan couldn't help but admire after hearing this: "Okay! In that case, what does Fan Xiangke need me to do? ”

"The general just pretends to support Zhang Shumo, whether he wants you to borrow someone or inquire about the news, the general just needs to support it with all his might!"

Gao Yan nodded: "Okay, I understand!" But how am I going to explain to Zhang Shumo now? I made a package ticket yesterday and said that I would get you to agree not to kill Xu Xuan. ”

Fan Yao smiled slightly: "The general told Zhang Shumo that I agreed, and I was very satisfied with his thoughts." ”

After a while, Gao Yan left the Prime Minister's Mansion without any delay, and then walked directly in the direction of the post house.

Knowing that Gao Yan had come to the post house, Zhang Shumo hurriedly took the people of the mission out to greet him. Gao Yan was not ambiguous, and directly proposed to talk to Zhang Shumo alone.

"The general is from the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Zhang Shumo immediately asked.

Gao Yan nodded and showed a hint of a smile: "Fan Xiang has agreed with your idea, and he is very satisfied with your idea!" ”

When Zhang Shumo heard this, he immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted Gao Yan: "Thank you, General, so that Shumo can rest assured." ”

Gao Yan patted Zhang Shumo's shoulder: "Don't be in a hurry to be happy, didn't you say that your subordinates didn't agree to let Xu Xuan go?" Think about how to talk to your subordinates! Okay, I'll go first, and I'll leave the rest to you, if you have any difficulties, just come to me! ”

Waiting for Gao Yan to leave, Zhang Shumo immediately excitedly told the news to the other members of the mission.

"Mr. Chen's method is really powerful, Gao Yan immediately believed it as soon as Ma Fan Yao came out!" Zhang Shumo said happily.

Chen Lin also breathed a sigh of relief: "With Fan Yao's trust, the peace negotiation will be successful, and then we just need to follow the steps!" ”

On the second day, above the imperial palace.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you need to discuss today?" Gongsun Zeduan sat on the dragon chair and asked the hundred officials.

Fan Yao had been waiting for a long time, so he was the first to stand up: "Your Majesty, the case of the assassination of the post house has been completely investigated. This Xu Xuan was an assassin of Zheng Guo, and he infiltrated the Qi Palace's mansion in order to find an opportunity to assassinate the envoys of Huaiguo. Although the case had been clarified, one Assassin was still at large, and he felt that he could use Xu Xuan to lure another Assassin into taking the bait. ”

Gongsun Xue nodded: "Okay, this case is related to the face of my Yan Kingdom, and I can't let the Huaiguo Mission leave a handle, it must be thoroughly investigated!" ”

At this time, without waiting for Fan Yao to speak, Deng Fei preemptively said: "Your Majesty, if the other assassin doesn't take the bait, won't it be impossible to close the case?" ”

Fan Yao listened and continued: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this case can be handed over to Zhang Shumo to host at this time, and whether he can catch another assassin or not, it is his own doing, and it has nothing to do with my Yan Kingdom, and the Huaiguo delegation naturally can't leave it behind." ”

When the hundred officials heard this, they immediately agreed, and Gongsun Xue was very happy after hearing it: "This method is very wonderful, so let's implement it according to Fan Xiang's method!" ”

Soon, the hundred officials retreated, but Fan Yao stopped Gongsun Zhi.

Gongsun Zhi couldn't help but be a little apprehensive: "Fan Xiang deliberately left this palace and don't know what happened?" ”

"That's the case, since the post house assassination case is going to be transferred to Zhang Shumo, then all the details and clues of this case should be told to Zhang Shumo. Otherwise, he will fall into his hands. His Royal Highness had been in charge of this case before, so I wanted His Royal Highness to explain the details and clues of this case with Zhang Shumo with me. Fan Yao said.

When Gongsun Zhi heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "Okay, this palace will fully cooperate with Fan Xiang!" ”

Back in the palace, Gongsun Zhi couldn't sleep well. If Xu Xuan dies, Zheng Guo's side will inevitably poke out the matter of combining himself with him, and he will definitely not be able to get the crown prince at that time, so this Xu Xuan must be saved. Fortunately, the case was handed over to Zhang Shumo, although Fan Yao would still stare at the case, but Zhang Shumo was not as old as Fan Yao, and he could use this opportunity to rescue Xu Xuan.

On the other side, Sun Kang, the prince of Qi, returned to the mansion with the same sad face. Seeing this, Gongsun Yang asked curiously: "Why is my father worried, and can the child solve problems for my father?" ”

Gongsun Kang smiled with relief: "Your Majesty wants to kill Xu Xuan to lure another assassin!" ”

When Gongsun Yang heard this, he immediately became nervous: "Xu Fei is Xu Xuan's own brother, if he knew the news, he would definitely be desperate to save Xu Xuan, and when the time comes, it will only make both of them captured." ”

"That's right! But Xu Xuan is still saved, presumably His Royal Highness is more worried than you and me! ”

As soon as Gongsun Kang's words fell, the housekeeper of the palace hurriedly came to report: "Tell King Qi and His Royal Highness the Prince that the Second Highness has come down." ”

"Hurry up, please!"

Soon, Gongsun Zhi came to the living room, and Gongsun Kang and his son hurriedly came out to greet him.

"Second brother, just now my father told me about rescuing Xu Xuan, but I didn't expect the second brother to come just as I was talking!"

As soon as Gongsun Yang finished speaking, Gongsun Zhi quickly put his index finger to his mouth and made a silent gesture.

Gongsun Kang hurriedly said: "Second Highness, rest assured, it is very safe here, and you can say anything directly." ”

Gongsun Zhi said at this time: "Xu Xuan must be saved, I don't know if my uncle has a plan?" ”

"There is no plan yet, and although this matter is sponsored by Zhang Shumo, Fan Yao will definitely send someone to keep an eye on it, it is not easy to do!" Gongsun Kang said.

"Father, second brother, can we play Your Majesty and spare Xu Xuan's life? After all, Xu Xuan is Zheng Guo's person, so he said that the time is not yet ripe to turn against Zheng Guo. Gongsun Yang proposed.

Gongsun Kang shook his head: "Since Your Majesty has already planned to negotiate peace with Huai Guo, then you have already turned your face with Zheng Guo, and I am afraid that this reason will not persuade Your Majesty." The only thing that can be done now is to find a flaw, take the opportunity to rescue Xu Xuan, and let Xu Fei and Xu Xuan go away! ”。

"The truth is naturally like this, but will Fan Yao's actions make you and me catch a flaw?" Gongsun Zhi asked slightly unpleasantly.

Gongsun Kang smiled: "Fan Yao won't have flaws, but Zhang Shumo will!" He's just a foreign minister, and he is not familiar with life in this generation of Beijing, and it's normal to have some flaws! ”
