Chapter 405: The Drunkard's Intention Is Not to Wine (8)
After Zhang Shumo finished speaking, Fan Yao and Gao Yan exchanged glances again.
In Gao Yan's opinion, there is no need for Zhang Shumo to lie at all, so this matter is likely to be the act of Zheng Guo's spies planted in Yan Guo.
Fan Yao, on the other hand, closed his eyes, obviously thinking about something.
After a while, Fan Yao suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Zhang Shumo: "Do you think it is possible for His Highness to do this?" ”
Zhang Shumo shook his head resolutely: "That scholar's words may prove that His Highness has no problem!" Fan Xiang and the general also knew that His Royal Highness asked Miao Feng to commit perjury for me, but he was helpless at that time. Don't hide it from the two adults, after I learned that His Royal Highness helped me, I was also very puzzled in my heart, thinking that His Highness must have other plans. ”
When the scholar said that Miao Feng asked them to come to the post house to make trouble and steal clothes, Zai Xia also suspected that His Royal Highness had acted in such a play to frame His Royal Highness. The reason why His Royal Highness helped me clear my name was to win the favor of the general who was already under him! But now the scholar suddenly changed his words and framed him, which means that the people behind the scenes have long expected this, and the purpose is to sabotage the peace. Although His Royal Highness is the main battle faction, he will not go to great lengths to sabotage the peace, and the only one who is willing to spend so much effort to destroy the peace is Zheng Guoren! ”
Fan Yao frowned: "According to what you said, there must be a Zheng Guo spy among the hundred officials of my Yan Kingdom, but my Yan Kingdom has always been strict in promoting officials, and it is impossible to easily mix in the spies, unless Zheng Guo has been planning these since decades ago!" But Zheng Guoren is not an immortal, how would they know that there will be turmoil in the current situation in a few decades? ”
After listening to Fan Yao's words, Zhang Shumo took a deep breath: "Then there is only one possibility left, this matter is done by His Royal Highness!" Killing Xu Xuan avoids the worries of His Second Highness, and at the same time blames me for this matter, and can destroy the peace and meet Zheng Guo's requirements! ”
Fan Yao narrowed his eyes, and then said lightly: "All this is based on the premise that His Royal Highness colluded with Zheng Guo and planned the assassination of the post house!" But all the people involved in the post house assassination case have died without evidence, so Zhang Gongzi's speculation can no longer be confirmed! ”
Zhang Shumo looked at Fan Yao, but he didn't expect that Fan Yao still didn't let down his guard at this time, as long as he doubted His Second Highness, Fan Yao would doubt himself. So Zhang Shumo smiled helplessly: "Fan Xiang still doesn't believe it?" ”
Fan Yao nodded: "Zhang Gongzi's analysis just now was very good, but there was only one possibility. Maybe His Royal Highness and Zhang Gongzi jointly planned this matter, Zhang Gongzi conspired, and His Royal Highness contributed to frame the Second Highness together. In this way, His Highness has no competitors, and Zhang Gongzi has also removed the biggest obstacle to peace! ”
Zhang Shumo looked at Gao Yan, then took a deep breath and said: "There is one thing that can prove that I did not collude with His Highness, when I was imprisoned in the post house, I did not ask His Highness for help, but looked for Miss Gao Ning'er, which Miss Gao Ning'er can prove!" ”
When Fan Yao heard this, he immediately looked at Gao Yan. Gao Yan glared at Zhang Shumo, and then nodded: "That's right, I also know about this!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Fan Yao shook his head helplessly: "General, how can you be so confused? Why are you hiding this from me? ”
"To be honest, in my opinion, there is no need for Zhang Shumo to go to great lengths to plan this matter to frame His Royal Highness. To put it mildly, Your Majesty is in good health, and there are at least a few decades left, and there is no need for Zhang Shumo to throw away the life-saving straw in front of him for the benefit of decades later! Gao Yan said what was in his heart.
Fan Yao sighed and looked at Zhang Shumo: "Although Miss Gao can prove that you are not united with His Highness, it does not mean that you can directly clear your suspicion!" ”
Zhang Shumo opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but Gao Yan shook his head at him, and Zhang Shumo had no choice but to close his mouth.
Fan Yao saw all this, so he continued: "What you want to say just now can be said directly, the general just doesn't want you to explain too much, so as to prevent me from deepening the misunderstanding of you!" ”
Zhang Shumo nodded and said to the two: "Actually, that scholar has already explained everything. According to the scholar's words, it was the middleman who summoned them to do things, and as a result, the middleman died tragically, and he turned himself in. Since there is an intermediary, how can he know Miao Feng's name? If this matter was done by His Royal Highness, Miao Feng would naturally be cautious, how could he easily let people know his origin? ”
After Fan interrogated the scholar for the second time, he immediately changed his words, saying that he had asked him to say so. But why did he let him frame Miao Feng? Wouldn't framing Miao Feng guide adults to find out Miao Feng's whereabouts? Wouldn't Miao Feng's perjury be found out by adults? ”
Fan Yao narrowed his eyes after hearing this: "So the person who instructed the scholar deliberately asked him to say this, just so that I could find out that Miao Feng had given you false testimony, so that I would suspect that you had colluded with His Highness?" ”
Zhang Shumo nodded excitedly, Fan Yao investigated the case, his preconceived notions were too strong, and once the object of suspicion in his heart was determined, it was difficult for him to change. And the other party took advantage of this and deliberately lured Fan Yao.
Fan Yao couldn't help but be afraid after thinking about it, if it wasn't for Zhang Shumo's reminder, I'm afraid he would have really fallen into a trap. Wronging Zhang Shumo is a small matter, and wronging His Highness will also make Yan Kingdom fall into chaos!
Gao Yan couldn't help but be afraid, the person who didn't plan this matter actually counted Fan Yao, would it still be Gongsun Zhi's doing? Has he reached this point?
Thinking of this, Gao Yan couldn't help but ask Zhang Shumo: "Then do you still think that this matter was done by His Royal Highness?" ”
Zhang Shumo thought for a while, and then said: "I thought so before, but now I don't think so!" ”
When Gao Yan and Fan Yao heard this, they immediately looked at Zhang Shumo, wanting to hear him continue.
Zhang Shumo continued: "At first glance, the focus of this matter seems to be between the Second Highness and me, but on second thought, maybe someone deliberately used the matter between me and the Second Highness to confuse everyone, thus plunging the Yan Kingdom into chaos? Like I said earlier, this is what Zheng Guo would like to see the most! So please think about it carefully, no matter how this matter is investigated, what will be the final result? ”
Fan Yao was shocked in his heart, and couldn't help but think of Gongsun Ze's words. The object of suspicion in this matter is between the two highnesses and Zhang Shumo, and there will only be two results if the investigation continues. First, this matter was done by a certain Royal Highness, the royal family of Yan Kingdom lost face, and the position of the crown prince fell on another Royal Highness; The second is what Zhang Shumo did, Yan Guo and Huai Guo failed to negotiate peace, so as to continue to wage war with Huai Guo, and finally achieve Zheng Guo's goal!
