Chapter 398: The Drunkard's Intention Is Not in Wine (1)

In the general's mansion, Gao Ning'er ordered someone to bring Lin Xiruo over, and Zhang Shumo thanked Gao Ning'er again.

Gao Ning'er pouted: "I've done you such a big favor, you're done with a thank you?" ”

Zhang Shumo was a little embarrassed, so he had to ask, "How does Miss Gao want me to express my gratitude?" ”

Gao Ning'er thought for a long time, and then said: "There is a Shunde Building in Daijing City, and the dishes there are good, why don't you invite me to dinner another day?" ”

When Zhang Shumo heard this, he immediately agreed: "Okay, you can just choose a date!" ”

Gao Ning'er smiled slightly: "Then it's better tomorrow, I'll go to Rong'er later, let's go together!" ”

The two agreed on the time, and Zhang Shumo took Lin Xiruo and Liu naturally to leave the General's Mansion. When the three of them arrived at the door, they happened to bump into Gao Yan, who was going home.

Gao Yan suddenly remembered Fan Yao's worry when he saw Zhang Shumo, so he tentatively asked him: "Who do you think is going to frame you this time?" ”

Zhang Shumo paused, and said truthfully: "I think it's His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness has found some evidence to prove that His Royal Highness planned the assassination of the post house." ”

Gao Yan's heart tightened after hearing this, Fan Yao was worried that Zhang Shumo deliberately planned the arson case, the purpose was to frame Gongsun Zhi, but now that Zhang Shumo is openly saying these things to himself, could it be that he deliberately led himself to suspect Gongsun Zhi?

Thinking of this, Gao Yanzhang Shumo beckoned, asked him to get closer, and then said in a low voice: "I know what Ning'er said to His Highness, that is to say, you have not completely cleared the suspicion of arson, I advise you to be more restrained, don't get involved in the affairs between His Highness and His Second Highness, otherwise I will never help you again if something happens in the future!" ”

Zhang Shumo was stunned, and immediately began to analyze the meaning of Gao Yan saying these words to himself. Obviously, Gao Yan still had some doubts about himself, but he was more inclined to believe in himself, so he didn't debunk the perjury that His Highness had done for him. It's just that why did he remind himself not to get involved in the affairs between His Highness and His Second Highness? You don't think you've ever been involved in anything like this, huh?

Thinking of this, Zhang Shumo felt that Gao Yan was still trustworthy, so he said unabashedly: "Please forgive the general for being stupid, it seems that he has never been involved in the affairs between the two highnesses, why did the general remind him?" ”

Gao Yan looked around, and the others immediately stayed away so that the two could talk. Then Gao Yancai continued to lower his voice and said, "You tell me the truth, did you plan the arson case this time?" ”

Zhang Shumo shook his head resolutely: "General, after I met the Holy Lord that day, the matter of peace negotiation has basically become a foregone conclusion, and I don't need to kill Xu Xuan at all!" ”

Gao Yan raised his eyebrows and continued to ask, "Then do you know why Fan Xiang asked you to take over Xu Xuan's affairs?" ”

Zhang Shumo looked at Gao Yan, struggled in his heart, and decided to tell the truth: "Fan Xiang has looked for him, and he said that he wants to test it!" ”

Gao Yan knew Fan Yao's plan, so he continued to ask, "Then do you know how Fan Xiang plans to test you?" ”

Zhang Shumo nodded: "I think that Fan Xiangming wants to test how to deal with Xu Xuan on the surface, but he actually wants to test how he will deal with His Second Highness." In the post house assassination case, after catching Xu Xuan, Zai Xia began to suspect His Royal Highness. Fan Xiang deliberately removed Jing Zhaoyin's guards and asked me to take over Xu Xuan, it should be deliberately to create an opportunity for His Royal Highness to rob Xu Xuan, and then see how I will deal with it! ”

Gao Yan's brows were twisted together, and then he looked at Zhang Shumo in surprise: "How do you know this?" ”

"Mr. Chen Lin, who is next to him, is good at figuring out people's hearts, and these are all guesses we have based on the information we have obtained."

After hearing this, Gao Yan couldn't help but sigh that Zhang Shumo's subordinates were also capable, but the more Zhang Shumo knew Fan Yao's intentions, the more likely he was to use this to frame Gongsun Zhi.

Thinking of this, Gao Yan couldn't help but continue to ask, "Then how are you going to deal with it?" ”

"Take strict precautions, try not to let His Royal Highness rob Xu Xuan away!" Zhang Shumo replied truthfully.

Gao Yan was a little skeptical after hearing this, what is the difference between Zhang Shumo's answer and no measures? With the wisdom of Zhang Shumo, can't he think of a way to deal with it?

Looking at Gao Yan's expression, a trace of uneasiness suddenly rose in Zhang Shumo's heart: Gao Yan seemed to be worried about something? What was he worried about?

Zhang Shumo's mind quickly thought: judging from Gao Yan's expression, he was obviously speculating about the truth of what he said, could it be that he was doubting himself? If he tells the truth what he thinks in his heart, what will he doubt himself? Could it be that he was suspicious that he would take the initiative......

Thinking of this, Zhang Shumo suddenly had a flash of inspiration, so he immediately lowered his voice and asked Gao Yan: "Could it be that the general is suspecting why Zai Xia prevented His Royal Highness from kidnapping Xu Xuan, so he took the initiative to attack and directed this prison arson case?" ”

Gao Yan narrowed his eyes when he heard Zhang Shumo's words, but he was even more puzzled in his heart: If Zhang Shumo didn't think so in his heart, could he guess these things so quickly just by relying on his own prompts?

Seeing Gao Yan's performance, Zhang Shumo immediately understood that he had guessed correctly, so he hurriedly explained: "General, there is no need to take such a big risk to burn Xu Xuan to death, even if His Royal Highness robs Xu Xuan, it will not cause me any loss, so I didn't deliberately arrange countermeasures, just strengthen my defense and do my best." ”

Gao Yan twisted his mouth, and then asked, "Don't you hate the Second Highness for assassinating you?" ”

"Although I have some grudges in my heart, I don't hate them so much." Zhang Shumo hurriedly said. But seeing that Gao Yan was still a little suspicious, Zhang Shumo continued ruthlessly: "Besides, Second Highness is Ning'er's cousin, even if I think about Ning'er, I won't do such a thing!" ”

When Gao Yan heard this, his expression gradually relaxed: "It's best if you think like this, the reason why I remind you is that I am worried that you are secretly manipulating the candidate for the crown prince of our country." The second highness's mind is more delicate than that of the eldest highness, I am worried that you will deliberately frame the second highest, so as to fulfill the boss. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Shumo suddenly realized that he couldn't smile bitterly. Fan Yao suspects that he is probably also because of this, it seems that Fan Yao and Gao Yan really think too highly of themselves, and they don't know if this is a good thing.

So Zhang Shumo assured Gao Yan: "Please rest assured, the general will never participate in the political affairs of Yan State!" ”

Gao Yan nodded: "Okay, go back quickly, what the old man told you today, you must not say it, and neither can your subordinates!" ”

Zhang Shumo hurriedly agreed, and then bowed deeply to Gao Yan, Gao Yan nodded in response, and then turned around and entered the mansion with his subordinates.

Liu naturally hurriedly leaned over and asked Zhang Shumo, "What did you two mysteriously say?" ”

Zhang Shumo narrowed his eyes: "Very important things, I promised Gao Yan not to say it, but I seem to have thought of something." ”
