When everyone heard Zhang Shumo's words, they instantly became interested again, and they all looked at Zhang Shumo and waited for him to continue to explain.

Zhang Shumo paused and continued: "After I suggested that the Qi Wangfu might collude with Gongsun Luo, Gongsun Zhi guided me intentionally or unintentionally, saying that Gongsun Luo was the mastermind behind the scenes. This is clearly counterintuitive! Even if Gongsun Zhi suspects Gongsun Luo, he can investigate on his own, why should he guide me? ”

"He wants to use Gongzi's mouth to frame Gongsun Luo?" Jang Gyu asked from the side.

Zhang Shumo nodded: "That's right!" If this is brought up through Gongsun Zhi, others will suspect that Gongsun Zhi deliberately framed Gongsun Luo in order to compete with Gongsun Luo for the crown prince, so Gongsun Zhi would want to express this suspicion through my mouth. ”

"But can this alone determine that Gongsun Zhi is behind the scenes?" Cai Xun asked puzzled.

"Of course not, that's why I deliberately said that Gongsun Kang framed Gongsun Luo to test Gongsun Zhi. I didn't expect Gongsun Zhi to be really scared. A moment ago, he was still saying that Gongsun Luo might be the mastermind behind the scenes, and after I tested him, he immediately said unfounded official words to postpone the interrogation to tomorrow, obviously he didn't want me to continue the topic. In this way, nine times out of ten, Gongsun Zhi is the mastermind behind the scenes, and Gongsun Kang framed Gongsun Luo at his instigation! ”

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but nod in admiration, and then Chen Lin suddenly asked, "Childe, what do Gongsun Kang's last words mean?" Wouldn't he be implying that he framed Gongsun Luo, so that the mastermind behind the scenes could only be Gongsun Zhi. It stands to reason that he should be Gongsun Zhi's person, why did he do this? ”

Zhang Shumo also shook his head: "I haven't figured this out either, in short, this Gongsun Kang doesn't look as simple as it seems, I have to pay more attention to him in the future." ”

"And what are you going to do next?" Liu naturally put his hands behind his head and asked leisurely.

Zhang Shumo smiled slightly: "The bait has been released, and someone should be hooked soon!" ”

On the other side, after Gao Yan and Fan Yao left the yamen, the two went straight to the palace.

On the way, Gao Yan couldn't help but ask Fan Yao: "Fan Xiang, Zhang Shumo said that he already has a deduction, doesn't Fan Xiang want to hear it?" ”

Fan Yao smiled: "I really want to hear it, but I'm afraid of being used by Zhang Shumo!" General, haven't you seen it yet? Your daughter has found a wonderful husband! ”

Gao Yan scratched his head: "Isn't it just clever words?" What's the big deal? ”

"It's not just clever words, Zhang Shumo can sort out the clues in such a short period of time, and judge the real mastermind behind the scenes. After all, even His Majesty and I dare not confirm who is the real mastermind behind the scenes, His Royal Highness and Second Highness. Fan Yao said.

Gao Yan was even more puzzled when he heard this: "Since Fan Xiang is not sure, why don't you listen to Zhang Shumo's inference?" Why are you afraid of being used by him? ”

"General, don't be angry with what I said, General, I'm also for Yan Guo. After all, this chapter of Shumo is from Huaiguo, and you have to be careful before you are sure of his sincerity. This matter must be related to my candidate for the position of prince, if any prince colludes with Zhang Shumo, or Zhang Shumo wants to control our country's political affairs, this is a great opportunity! ”

Gao Yan understood Fan Yao's worries, and he was inevitably a little unhappy in his heart. If this chapter of Shumo can't be truly for Yan Guo, wouldn't his daughter marry him and jump into the fire pit?

The two chatted all the way, and the carriage had already reached the palace. When Gongsun Ze learned that the two asked to meet, he immediately met with them.

Fan Yao explained today's events to Gongsun Ze, and Gongsun Xue frowned after hearing this: "This boss and the second child are really not worry-free, and they actually make trouble in front of an outsider, isn't it a joke?" ”

After speaking, Gongsun Xue immediately realized that Gao Yan was still here, so he hurriedly said: "But this chapter of Shumo will not be an outsider soon, so let's leave it at that." This matter can't be continued to be investigated by the second child, so let's leave it to Fan Xiang to investigate. However, it is not permissible, only covertly. ”

Fan Yao hurriedly received the order, and then asked, "Your Majesty, what should I do with the Qi Palace?" No matter which of His Royal Highness's chief envoys, this Qi palace is inseparable, if it is said that His Royal Highness and the prince Gongsun Yang jointly did it, then Weichen does not dare to agree. ”

Gongsun Xue shook his lower lips: "Do you think Brother Kang must know about this?" ”

Fan Yao nodded: "That's right!" Even if His Highness is looking for the prince of King Qi, King Qi must know about this matter, otherwise he would never go to see His Highness at such a sensitive time today! ”

"Could it be that Luo'er and Qin'er did it together, after today's incident was revealed, Kang Di went to Luo'er to settle accounts, right?" Gongsun Xue still believes in his own brother, after all, during the time when he ascended the throne, Gongsun Kang also helped him.

Fan Yao shook his head resolutely: "There are only two possibilities for His Royal Highness King Qi to go to His Highness today, one is that he wants to frame His Highness and make others think that His Highness has colluded with King Qi's Mansion; The second is that His Highness is the mastermind behind the scenes, and he has to go to His Highness and tell His Highness about the matter. ”

"But what's the benefit of him doing that?"

"Naturally, it is to strive for the greatest benefit for Gongsun Yang, you must know that this matter also involves Zheng Guo!"

After Fan Yao finished speaking, Gongsun Xue fell into silence, and after a long time, Gongsun Xue said slowly: "It seems that it is time to establish the crown prince." I intend to establish the crown prince after this matter is clarified, I wonder what your opinion is? ”

Fan Yao and Gao Yan hurriedly knelt on the ground: "The minister obeys the holy will!" ”

As soon as he left the palace, Fan Yao couldn't help but sigh: "General, you, the future son-in-law, are really powerful, the position of the crown prince of our country has been hanging for so long, and he will immediately fall by making such a fuss." ”

"Who is Fan Xiang more optimistic about?" Gao Yan couldn't help but ask.

Fan Yao shook his head: "You and I don't have to speculate about the holy will, more than this, I want to know who planned the assassination of Zhang Shumo." ”

Gao Yan asked puzzledly, "Is there any difference?" determined the mastermind behind this matter, so wouldn't the other one logically ascend to the throne of the crown prince? ”

Fan Yao shook his head: "Your Majesty just said that the prince will be established after the results of this matter are investigated, but he didn't say that the mastermind behind the scenes can't be the prince." ”

"Huh? The mastermind behind the scenes must have fornicated with Zheng Guo, and His Majesty will tolerate such a thing? Gao Yan is still a little hard to believe.

Fan Yao also frowned: "It's hard to say!" Perhaps His Majesty thinks that the person who can plan this is more strategic? ”

Gao Yan couldn't help but pat his head after hearing this: It would not be good if it was the queen of the tomb who became the prince, he couldn't tolerate Zhang Shumo now, and in the future, Zhang Shumo and Ning Er became close, wouldn't Ning Er also be implicated?
