"Zhao Gao, what reward do you want?" Hu Hai Gongzi said happily.

Although Hu Hai Gongzi is a child, he is more generous, as long as you make him happy, no matter what it is, as long as it is not the love of his heart, he will reward you generously.

But Zhao Gao didn't want anything else at the moment, so he shook his head and said, "This is the slave's business, and there is no need for any reward." ”

"Forget it." Gongzi Hu Hai didn't dwell on it anymore, but he was happy and said casually: "Hello, if you think of what you want?" Tell me again. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Huhai." Zhao Gao respectfully bowed and said.

Although both of them said so, in fact, no one took it seriously at the moment, after all, Hu Hai Gongzi had what he wanted, and as long as he gave him what Zhao Gao wanted, what did it matter?

Zhao Gao is just talking on the surface, after all, he is a slave, and Hu Hai Gongzi is the master, how can any slave always refuse the master's way, not to mention that Zhao Gao feels that Hu Hai Gongzi is childish, and he is afraid that he will forget what he said in a blink of an eye.

Because of Fu Lao's praise, Hu Hai Gongzi was very happy, the smile on his face could not be hidden, and he treated the palace people very well, as long as it made Hu Hai Gongzi more happy at the moment, Hu Hai Gongzi began to reward them with things.

The palace maids and eunuchs who were rewarded by Prince Hu Hai were happy in their hearts, and they suddenly felt that since Zhao Gao came here, Prince Hu Hai often happily rewarded them with everything.

In just a few months, Prince Hu Hai's personality has obviously changed a lot, unlike before, when he was uncertain, and he used the palace people to vent his anger at every turn, making them worry all the time.

And Gonggong Zhu will not intercede for them, he will not help them at all, and if there is anything good, he must give it to Gonggong Zhu first, and the rest of the things will be distributed to them.

When everyone thought of this, it suddenly occurred to them that Zhao Gao had never cared about these things, and he was much better than Gonggong Zhu, although he was expressionless all day long and had fewer words, but he never embarrassed them.

There are many people who suddenly think in their hearts, maybe it is good for Zhao Gao to replace Zhu Gonggong's position, and everyone's lives may also change.

But they just thought about it in their hearts, after all, Gonggong Zhu has been in the palace of Prince Hu Hai for so many years, and he also has a certain amount of his own power, and they don't dare to say what they think in their hearts before the foolproof moment, so as not to offend any party, and it is themselves who can't finish eating and walking around when the time comes.

After lunch, Gongzi Hu Hai had to take a break for a while as usual, although Gonggong Zhu was still nowhere to be found, but Gongzi Hu Hai was not very angry, after all, at this moment, Gongzi Hu Hai was very happy because of what happened in the morning.

So, Gongzi Hu Hai ordered Zhao Gao to lead people to find Gonggong Zhu, and after he finished resting, let Gonggong Zhu come to meet him.

Zhao Gao received the order, and then after Hu Hai Gongzi rested, he led people to the garden.

"Which of you was the last one to see Gonggong Zhu?" Zhao Gao's expressionless eyes swept over everyone's faces, but it gave people a very dangerous feeling.

Everyone looked at each other, you look at each other, I look at you, but no one stood up and said.

"This morning, you searched all over this palace, but you still can't find Gonggong Zhu." Zhao Gao looked at the group of people in front of him, but none of them stood up and said something, so he spoke again: "Then there are only two reasons, first, Gonggong Zhu hid because he was lazy, and second, what happened yesterday made Gonggong Zhu disappear mysteriously." ”

When Zhao Gao said that Gonggong Zhu disappeared mysteriously, the expressions on everyone's faces became even more weird, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

Zhao Gao looked at the changing expressions on each of their faces, so he began to say step by step: "We all know that Grandpa Zhu is a person, he can't be lazy, so there is only the second reason, that is, Grandpa Zhu has mysteriously disappeared. ”

"It's just a person, how can it suddenly disappear mysteriously in this palace?" Finally, someone couldn't help but ask.

"That's a good question." The corners of Zhao Gao's mouth curled slightly, if no one looked carefully, no one would have noticed, Zhao Gao looked at the person who spoke and said, "How can a person disappear mysteriously?" The only understanding is that he was killed. ”

After everyone listened to Zhao Gao's words, many people's faces instantly became very pale, and a few people even began to dodge their eyes.

Zhao Gao observed their expressions from beginning to end, and from the changes in their expressions, Zhao Gao locked on several people, so he began to talk slowly.

"Let's talk about it, when was the last time you saw Gonggong Zhu yesterday?" Although Zhao Gao's tone was steady, it was very imposing, making people irresistible.

Everyone was reluctant to be the first to speak, and began to make small calculations in their hearts, and then secretly aimed at the people around them.

Zhao Gao obviously understood their little Jiujiu, so he said solemnly: "But there is one thing you need to understand, lying at this time is not a smart thing, if someone lies, then you are the biggest suspect." ”

"How do you know that Gonggong Zhu was killed? We just can't find Gonggong Zhu for the time being, if he is really killed, the body can be found in the field. Someone asked.

"But you can't even see a corpse now, can you?" Zhao Gao suddenly looked at the person who spoke with a pleasant face, and then said: "Since you ask this question first, why don't you tell me first, when was the last time you saw Gonggong Zhu yesterday?" ”20

"I'm ......" the man suddenly paused, and then stopped talking.

"What? Is there anything you can't say? Zhao Gao continued to ask.

Zhao Gao asked, but everyone stared at this person, and the person who spoke instantly became nervous, and then began to argue: "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't do anything." ”

"I didn't say you did anything wrong, so why are you so nervous?" Zhao Gao asked step by step.

All of a sudden, everyone's eyes were focused on him, whether he said it or not, the atmosphere suddenly became very weird.

"I really didn't do anything." The man looked at everyone's questioning eyes, and suddenly felt that he was isolated, suspicious, and questioned, so he nervously said: "Really, everything I said is true, I didn't do anything, you have to believe me." ”

It's just that the more he said this, the more strange everyone looked at him, and in the end, even he felt that his quibbling was very similar to the three hundred taels of silver here, and the more he quibbled, the more unclear it became.

In the questioning eyes of everyone, this person quickly couldn't stand it anymore, and his legs and feet were weak and he was paralyzed on the ground, and his face was pale with fright.

Zhao Gao saw that the effect had started, so he walked up to the person and said, "What's your name?" ”

It's just that the little eunuch who is now so frightened that his legs are limp on the ground and his face is pale, how can he answer Zhao Gao's words.

At that time, the relationship with him was quite good, and another little eunuch said: "He is Xiaobeizi." ”

"Oh? Do you know each other? Zhao Gao looked at the person who opened his mouth and asked.

"We share the same room." The man replied immediately.

"What's your name?" Zhao Gao continued to ask.

"My name is Xiao Dongzi." The little eunuch named Xiao Dongzi replied immediately.

Zhao Gao looked at the little eunuch named Xiao Dongzi who was quite clever, much better than the one sitting on the ground.

"Was he with you all the time last night?" Zhao Gao looked back and forth between Xiao Dongzi and Xiao Beizi, and suddenly asked.

"Last night, Xiaobeizi and I were in the room, but all of a sudden, he said that he had something to go out for, and he came back after a stick of incense." Xiao Dongzi replied truthfully.

"Oh?" After Zhao Gao listened, the corners of his eyebrows were slightly raised, and then he looked at Xiao Beizi lying on the ground and asked, "Where have you been during this time?" ”

When Xiao Beizi heard Zhao Gao's words, his whole face turned even paler, and he looked at Zhao Gao with a weak heart in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

Zhao Gao knew that Xiao Beizi must have done something last night, and this matter must have something to do with Gonggong Zhu, so he was so afraid.

"This is your last chance, if you don't tell the truth, I'm afraid that the disappearance of Gonggong Zhu will be borne by you, but what the consequences will be, you should know in your heart." Zhao Gao said calmly, and there were no ups and downs in his voice, but his words were full of threats.

Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Beizi heard this, the whole person was frightened, so he said everything in a panic.

"Grandpa Zhu's disappearance really has nothing to do with me, I went to Grandpa Zhu's room last night, but Grandpa Zhu was not in the room, and then I left." Xiao Beizi said everything in a panic, and also admitted that he went to Gonggong Zhu's room last night, but it was obvious that he was still hiding something.

Zhao Gao said without any emotion: "What are you going to do in Gonggong Zhu's room?" And who has seen it? ”

"I ...... I, I really didn't see Gonggong Zhu. Xiao Beizi's pale face explained.

"If you don't tell the truth, I'll have the guards take you down." Zhao Gao saw that Xiao Beizi still wanted to hide his own affairs, so he deliberately opened his mouth and threatened.

Zhao Gao's threat, Xiao Beizi was even more panicked, and he couldn't care about what he was doing, and then hurriedly said: "I said, I said, I secretly took advantage of Grandpa Zhu's absence in the room last night, and then slipped in and took my jade pendant back, but I swear that Grandpa Zhu was definitely not in the room at that time, and his disappearance has nothing to do with me." ”

"Why did your jade pendant appear in Grandpa Zhu's room?" Zhao Gao asked.

"This is the jade pendant I brought with me since I was a child, when I was a child, there was a famine in the family, everyone died, this is the only thing my mother left me, but not long ago I was seen by Zhu Gonggong, and others robbed it." Xiao Beizi pale face, while saying, and then recalling, slowly tears appeared in his eyes, and then Xiao Beizi looked at Zhao Gao and said seriously: "This is the only thing my mother left me, it is equivalent to my life, I just thought about taking advantage of Grandpa Zhu's absence, secretly stealing the jade pendant back, but I definitely didn't do anything to Grandpa Zhu." ”
