In the Jingzhao Yin Yamen, Fan Yao, Gao Yan and Zhang Shumo talked about the time from the time to the time in the lobby, and then Zhang Shumo was sent back to the post house.

Waiting for Zhang Shumo to leave, Gao Yan immediately asked Fan Yao, "Do you believe Zhang Shumo's words?" ”

Fan Yao squinted his eyes and looked at the night sky outside the house: "Believe it or not, it's all about this, besides, Your Majesty has already informed me not to continue to investigate!" ”

Who knew that Gao Yan shook his head: "It's different!" Whether Zhang Shumo's words are true or false may not have an impact on this case, but it will affect my daughter for the rest of her life, and I can only decide whether to marry Ning'er to him if he is reliable or not! ”

Fan Yao looked at Gao Yan and sighed helplessly: "How can you judge whether a person is reliable or not based on just a few words?" Let's keep walking! ”

In the Qi Palace, the moonlight shone through the window in the study, reflecting the dark shadow on the chair. Gongsun Kang's harmless face slowly stretched out, revealing a strange smile.

There was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps in the quiet courtyard, and Gongsun Kang slowly got up and came to the door of the study.

Not far away, Gongsun Yang was walking in a hurry, and when he saw his father appear at the door, Gongsun Yang hurriedly said, "Father, it's as you expected!" ”

Gongsun Kang put his fingers to his mouth and made a silent gesture. Gongsun Yang hurriedly closed his mouth and accompanied Gongsun Kang into the study.

After closing the door, Gongsun Yang couldn't wait to say to Gongsun Kang: "Father, Fan Yao really interrogated Zhang Shumo again, it seems that His Royal Highness's plan has succeeded!" ”

Gongsun Kang smiled: "Don't worry, Your Majesty will never let His Second Highness succeed!" It's almost time to put an end to this farce! ”

Gongsun Yang asked a little puzzled, "Why?" Doesn't Your Majesty want to know who is behind all this? Or can His Majesty turn a blind eye to the blatant arson and murder in Daijing? ”

Gongsun Kang let out a long breath: "My brother, I know better than you. Don't look at the fact that His Royal Highness and His Second Highness have such a good time, all this is under His Majesty's control. Now that someone wants to jump out of His Majesty's control, do you think His Majesty will agree? ”

"That's why Your Majesty should find out who is going to jump out of his control, and then punish him?"

Hearing Gongsun Yang's words, Gongsun Kang asked with ulterior motives: "So do you think that if you continue to investigate like this, it must be His Highness who will suffer?" ”

Gongsun Yang nodded: "The plans of the Second Highness have been implemented, if it is not successful, why did Fan Yao interrogate Zhang Shumo again?" ”

"What is the plan of the Second Highness?"

Gongsun Yang shook his head: "I don't know, but the Second Highness's methods are by no means weaker than Fan Yao, otherwise Fan Yao will not be turned around by the Second Highness these days!" ”

Gongsun Kang sighed helplessly: "Do you think Fan Yao can be fooled so easily? Compared with Fan Yao, Gongsun Zhi is still a little tender! ”

Gongsun Yang frowned after hearing this: "Father thinks that Fan Yao will definitely be able to see through the plan of the Second Highness?" ”

Gongsun Kang nodded silently.

Gongsun Yang was even more puzzled when he saw it: "In that case, why does my father want the child to remind His Royal Highness and let him frame His Royal Highness and Zhang Shumo?" ”

Gongsun Kang took a deep breath and looked at Gongsun Yang for a long time, and then said seriously: "Everything I do is for you!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Gongsun Yang was even more surprised, and he asked puzzledly: "But the father knew that it would be such a consequence, and asked the child to remind the Second Highness, isn't this harming the Second Highness?" Now that the child has returned to the second highness's disciples, what good can he do to the child in this way? ”

Gongsun Kang shook his head: "Your mistake is that you surrendered to His Second Highness in advance, so my father had to make this decision!" ”

Seeing that Gongsun Yang was still puzzled, Gongsun Kang continued: "You are the prince of the King of Qi, no matter which His Royal Highness ascends the throne in the future, you will be an important minister of my Yan Kingdom." But you just submitted to the Second Highness in advance, what should you do if His Highness ascends the throne in the future? ”

"If His Royal Highness ascends the throne, the child will naturally be excluded, and he will not even be able to gain a foothold in the Yan Kingdom. But His Royal Highness and Second Highness must have tried to find out far from the means and scheming, how could His Highness be the opponent of His Second Highness? Gongsun Yang said.

Gongsun Kang sighed helplessly: "Qin'er, what is important in choosing the prince is not necessarily the means and scheming!" Do you think that compared to your father and your majesty, who has more scheming and means? ”

When Gongsun Yang heard this, he immediately said: "Although my father does not participate in political affairs, in the child's heart, my father's strategy is no worse than Your Majesty, and even higher than Your Majesty!" ”

"So until the last moment, no one knows who will spend the crown prince!"

Gongsun Yang was a little confused after hearing this, so he continued to ask: "But no matter what, what good is it for us to harm His Royal Highness like this?" ”

Gongsun Kang suddenly laughed, and he looked at Gongsun Yang kindly: "Yang'er, you may not understand what your father is doing now, but you have to understand that your father is all for your good!" Whether it is to frame Gongsun Luo or Gongsun Zhi, it is to reduce the majesty of the royal family among the hundred officials. The lower the majesty of the two Highnesses, the more they need our support, so your position will rise! Father is just balancing your relationship with the two Highnesses! ”

Gongsun Yang was still frowning after hearing this, but he still knelt on the ground respectfully: "The child understands!" ”

Gongsun Kang looked at Gongsun Yang's humble appearance, and couldn't help but hate iron and steel. He originally wanted to vigorously support Gongsun Yang to become an important minister of the court who was not inferior to Fan Yao in Yan State. But Gongsun Yang is relatively wooden, and he is not suitable for this intriguing officialdom at all, and he can only do his best to obey the destiny of heaven.

On the morning of the second day, Fan Yao wanted Gongsun to report on the investigation of the arson case in Jingzhao Yin's prison in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.

"Your Majesty, through the investigation of the ministers, this arson case was committed by Zheng Guo's spies! And those two thieves and scholars are Zheng Guo's spies planted in Yan Kingdom. Zheng Guo saw that Xu Xuan's assassination of Zhang Shumo failed, so he planned this case, one is to kill Xu Xuan, and the other is to frame Zhang Shumo and his party to achieve the destruction of the peace between Yan and Huai! Fan Yao said in the court.

When the officials of Yan Guo heard this investigation, they were filled with indignation. Gao Yan took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, I didn't expect Zheng Guozhi's disciples to be so rampant and dare to commit crimes in my Dayan Kyoto, this is completely ignoring my Dayan!" According to the minister's humble opinion, our country should promote peace with Huaiguo as soon as possible, and then join forces to resist Zheng and let them know how powerful my Dayan is! ”

Gongsun Zhi on the side was completely dumbfounded, and he couldn't help but look at Fan Yao and Gao Yan: What are these two people going to do?
