"What did you say?" Wang Meng's words. made Zhang Fan's eyes widen suddenly. "You said that there was a guard surnamed Zhao in the palace who was expelled. It was twenty years ago. "It doesn't matter if it's the Chinese New Year's Eve or not. But Wang Meng said that it has only been 20 years since this year. This made Zhang Fan a little puzzled. After all. Zhao Zijie told him. It must have been twenty-two years ago.

"Not bad. That's 20 years since then. Wang Meng said. And. There are some things that are different from what adults say. Wang Meng was obviously able to foresee Zhang Fan's surprise after hearing his words. Don't care at all. Go on. "The guard surnamed Zhao. That is, Zhao Zijie's father. In fact, he was not expelled from the palace. More precisely, missing. After hearing that something had happened. He did not return to the palace. ”

That is to say. Zhao Zijie's father at the beginning. After taking Zhu Xuanqi out to play. Only Zhu Xuanqi returned to the palace alone. And his whereabouts are unknown. Zhang Fan said.

"Not bad. That's exactly what happened. Wang Meng nodded. Said. "Still. Now it seems. Zhao Zijie is probably not this person's child. Either that or he lied about his age. If he is the son of this man. I should be less than twenty years old now. Lying about age. I can think of it. The palace is looking for a guard. There aren't too many rules, though. As long as you have the skills, it's good. But you have to be at least 18 years old. If he wants to enter the palace. Two years of false reporting is nothing.

"But. If Zhao Zijie did not lie about his age. Then he is not the son of the guard surnamed Zhao. According to what the man said. At that time, the guard surnamed Zhao. He didn't have a wife. Not to mention the son. ”

"If Zhao Zijie is not his son. So what ...... his identity is?" Zhang Fan was a little confused. "That's right, Wang Meng. The man said nothing. What the hell was going on at that time. ”

"Things at the time. Not much is known about this man. Wang Meng said. He's a guy in the house after all. On weekdays, he rarely walks around the palace. Most of the information I know is from others. Not to mention. It was the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve. It was the busiest day in the room. He didn't have any free time all day. Even this thing. I heard him say that it was also night. He doesn't know anything else. I didn't even know that the prince had gone out. I only know that the guard surnamed Zhao is missing. It seems that something else is going on in the house. King Kang was very angry. Also fell ill. ”

"King Kang would actually fall ill. It's really not a small thing. Zhang Fan said. Now we have to figure it out. What the hell happened at that time? Although we already know. Zhu Xuanqi was after going out at that time. What happened. But these are all hearsay. And Zhu Xuanqi himself will not tell us what happened at that time. Now. Trying to figure it out. You'll have to check it again. Wang Meng. This news can be found out. It really helped. But we have to keep looking. Let's see if there's anyone there. Knowing what was going on. It's best to figure it out. ”

"Don't worry, sir. The lowly position has been investigated. Wang Meng said. But now these have been found. Although we don't know exactly what happened at that time. But this Zhao Zijie. There must be a problem. ”

"You're right. Zhao Zijie is indeed a big problem. Zhang Fan said. If he is really the son of the guard surnamed Zhao. And now he does. I am afraid that it was because of what Zhu Xuanqi did at that time that caused what happened to his father later. He came to take revenge, but he could figure it out. But if Zhao Zijie is not that person's son. He only came to Zhu Xuanqi for revenge now. What's going on again. What reason does he have to seek revenge on Zhu Xuanqi? ”

"If you say. If you think so...... "Wang Meng suggested a possibility. "Zhao Zijie is really not the biological son of the guard surnamed Zhao. But it was the child he adopted later. If you think about it that way. Whether it is Zhao Zijie's current age. Or is it the reason why he wants to find the prince for revenge. Aren't they all there? ”

"Hmm. If that's how things go. It works. Zhang Fan said. Although I don't know what exactly happened at that time. But the guard surnamed Zhao. Even if it's missing. But it should also be that there is no death. That's it. If he adopts a child. That is, today's Zhao Zijie. Teach him martial arts. Good words to him. Wait until Zhao Zijie grows up. It is natural to want to avenge my father. Seemingly. It doesn't matter what really happened at the time. Thinking about it, Zhu Xuanqi also did very excessive things. But then again. At that time, Zhu Xuanqi was only ten years old. What can you do to make people hate it so much? ”

"Your Excellency." Liang Chao, who had not spoken all the time beside him. Now he has spoken. "I thought of another possibility."

"Oh. Tell me about it. Zhang Fan heard that Liang Chao had something to say. Asked. Liang Chao had never spoken before. Apparently thinking something. Now that he has spoken. I'm afraid I thought of something. Anyway, I know a lot of things now. But in general. Still confused. It doesn't hurt to listen to Liang Chao.

"Your Excellency has not forgotten. What did this group of people do when they came to the Shu Wangfu that night. Liang Chao said. Stealing genealogy. Naturally, there is something to do. Although we are still speculating now. But if we're right. Those people are the prince who discovered the present. There are some problems with ascending to the throne. There are others who should be more qualified to inherit the throne than the prince. So Zhao Zijie's identity. I can guess it. ”

I heard Liang Chao's words. Whether it is Zhang Fan or Wang Meng. They were all stunned. It's been a long day's work. Zhang Fancai said: "You...... You mean...... Zhao Zijie is...... Zhao Zijie is ......"

"Not bad. That's exactly what the lowly job guessed. "For the surprise of the two. Liang Chao was not surprised. After all, he himself had just thought of this possibility. I was also taken aback. Now I saw the surprised look of the two of them when they heard his words. Liang Chao didn't think there was anything wrong. "Since it's all speculation. Then it's possible to guess this. ”

"This ...... Naturally, it's ......," Zhang Fan said. "But if you think so. Zhao Zijie's age is a little incomprehensible. If he was twenty years old. That happened twenty years ago. That's it. I'm afraid at the time. Zhu Xuanqi went out with him. That's it. It's a little confusing. Just ask whether it is the palace or ordinary people. I would never let a baby who had just been born go out for a short time.

"Even if he lied about his age. Two years of words. He was only two years old at the time. Words of two years old. Even if his mother doesn't take him with her. I'll let someone else accompany me, too. But I still don't think it's likely. ”

"What if he's four years old." Liang Chao said. "If he was four years old at that time. Even at a young age. But I was already able to walk. And. The words of the prince. Although it is not loved by King Kang. But that wouldn't be the case. I can't let him get in touch with the other brothers.

"If he was four years old at the time. Now I'm only twenty-four. If you're four years apart. But it may not be seen. Not to mention. If I haven't seen you for so many years. I'm afraid no one will be able to recognize him. ”

"Your Excellency. I feel that what Liang Chao said is also somewhat reasonable. Wang Meng said. But there's one thing. I can't figure it out. If it is said. Zhao Zijie is that person's words. In this way. He lied about his age no matter what. Up to the most. It's not a shame to be five years old. And even if he lied for five years. He's only twenty-five years old now. Twenty-five years old. And not as old as the prince. That's it. How could he be more qualified to inherit the throne than the prince? ”

"...... this" was asked by Wang Meng. Liang Chao for a while. Some don't know how to answer.

"About that. I can explain it clearly. Zhang Fan said at this time. Not bad. If Zhao Zijie is that person. It is absolutely impossible for him to be older than Zhu Xuanqi. But. Have you ever thought about it? Zhu Xuanqi is a concubine. Although there is an old saying. Standing tall is not young. Older children are usually the ones who can inherit. But there is a difference between this concubine and the concubine. That's a big deal. Regardless of the children of the concubines. The years go by. But it's not as good as the toddlers.

"If you say. Zhao Zijie is the son of King Kang. All this can be figured out. It is recorded on the genealogy of the Shu king line in the court. King Kang had two sons. All of them died. If Zhao Zijie is the third son. Then he is indeed more qualified to inherit the throne than Zhu Xuanqi.

"And if things are considered that way. I'm afraid that no matter what Zhu Xuanqi did back then. It was all done on purpose. Because as long as there is anything except for Zhao Zijie. He is the biggest under King Kang's knees. The throne of the King of Shu must belong to him. A ten-year-old child can have such a mind. It's not unusual.

And if that's the case. I'm afraid that Zhao Zijie will come to Zhu Xuanqi for revenge. It's not for some of the guards surnamed Zhao. It's for his own sake. ”

"Your Excellency. Is that really the case? Although it was Liang Chao who proposed this possibility. But now he is still a little unsure.

"Now that's all we guessed. Who knows what the hell is going on. Zhang Fan said with a smile. I guess though. Zhao Zijie's trouble didn't last long. Start today. The one who was spying on him added one more. I guess it won't be long before we know the truth. ”
