This year's winter seems to be colder than ever, and inadvertently, there are snowflakes in the sky.

Zhang Bao got out of the carriage, and the coachman immediately put a mink cloak on him, and the cold wind blew, Zhang Bao couldn't help but wrap the cloak tightly and shivered.

The coachman said respectfully on the side: "My lord, Shili Pavilion is on that hillside, and if the carriage can't get up, you have to work ......."

"It doesn't matter! If you've been sitting for a long time, it's good to move! Zhang Bao looked relaxed, interrupted the coachman's words, and walked straight to the Shili Pavilion in the distance.

Not far away, several carriages had arrived, Zhang Bao smiled slightly, and said to himself: "It seems that someone has arrived first!" ”

A porter followed behind Zhang Bao, swaying and carrying a burden, I don't know what to pretend, but it seems that the weight is not light.

The mountain road is not easy to walk, but Zhang Bao is not in a hurry, calmly walking up step by step, at this moment in his heart, extremely relaxed, because everything is in his plan, after today, the deepest hidden character will surface.

"Master Zhang is here!" Wu Liang greeted him first and took the initiative to help Zhang Bao.

Zhang Bao put on a cloak, shook the snowflakes on his body, glanced at everyone with a smile, and said, "I didn't expect you to come so early!" ”

"My lord is really affectionate!" Others chimed in.

Zhang Bao nodded in response one by one, and finally saw Shi Jian standing behind the crowd, he didn't look at it, and stood there stunned.

"His Royal Highness King Ning." Zhang Bao said with a smile.

"Master Zhang!" Shi Jian saluted slightly and asked, "I wonder when Elder Gao will arrive?" ”

Zhang Bao glanced back at the direction of Yecheng and said, "It should be soon!" Wait, everybody! ”

While speaking, the coachman brought by Zhang Bao had already untied the burden and took out the contents of the contents.

"Your Excellency is so thoughtful! So many things are prepared! Someone in the crowd said.

Zhang Bao stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Farewell in the cold winter, how can there be no hot wine?" Come on! Ladies and gentlemen, let's sit back and wait for the arrival of the tall man. ”

Everyone sat down around the stone table in the pavilion, Zhang Bao looked very majestic, and everyone looked at him with a trace of fear.

The fire was red, the water in the pot was sizzling, and the servant put a pot of wine in the hot water to warm it, and it didn't take long for the aroma of wine to come to the nose.

"Let's warm up with some hot wine for you first!" Zhang Bao instructed his subordinates.

"Yes......"

Wine bowls were placed in front of everyone one after another, and the people who boiled the wine lifted the wine jugs and poured them full of wine one by one.

"His Royal Highness King Ning, you don't leave the house on weekdays, and you have little contact with the lower officials, I have been an official in the court for many years, and it seems that it is the first time I have drunk with you!"

"Yes, yes, it seems to be so!"

"Come on! His Royal Highness King Ning, this bowl of wine, I will salute you together! Zhang Bao said, glancing at everyone.

Everyone raised their wine bowls and looked at Shi Shi.

Shi Shi stood up with a smile, a little at a loss, nervously holding the wine bowl, and said: "It's rare to sit at the same table with all the adults and the royal family and nobles today, Xiao Wang is terrified!" This bowl of wine should be Xiao Wang's respect to you, I will drink it first, you are free. ”

After Shi Jian finished speaking, he picked up the wine bowl and raised his head to drink, who expected that the wine was a little hot, and before Shi Jian drank it, he squirted out with a "poof".

"Oops......" Someone immediately stood up in shock, for fear that Shi Jian's saliva would get on his clothes.

Almost everyone was a little surprised by Shi Jian's performance, but Zhang Bao looked at him calmly. Shi Jian was very embarrassed, wiped his mouth in a little panic, and then saluted everyone and said, "Xiao Wang is rude, Xiao Wang is rude!" Don't be surprised, gentlemen......"

Seeing that everyone was a little disdainful, Shi Jian's face became even more ugly, and he hurriedly pulled his sleeve to wipe the wine sprayed on the table, and said to Zhang Bao: "Forgive me, Lord Zhang, I'm really embarrassed......

"The wine is a little hot, Your Highness drink it slowly, don't be in a hurry to ......" Zhang Bao smiled and ordered: "Re-pour wine for His Royal Highness King Ning." ”

"Yes......"

"Thank you...... Thank you......" Shi Jian almost didn't dare to look up at everyone again.

Looking at Shi Jian's embarrassed appearance, many people were disdainful, but because of Zhang Bao's face, they didn't say anything, and at this moment, in a pile of rocks a hundred steps away from the Shili Pavilion, there was a pair of eyes staring at Zhang Bao and everyone, and what he was thinking about was what Zhang Bao said before.

At this time, a fast horse "Da Da Da" went straight to Shili Pavilion, and a sharp-eyed person saw it and hurriedly said to Zhang Bao: "Lord Zhang, it seems that someone is coming this way." ”

Zhang Bao didn't get up, and said with a smile: "It should be Master Gao who is here, right?" ”

The man frowned slightly and said, "It doesn't look like it!" That man came on horseback, and the tall man is old, so he shouldn't be riding a horse here, right? ”

Wu Liang was the first to stand up, took a few steps forward, squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, and found that something seemed wrong, so he turned his head and said to Zhang Bao: "It seems that it is indeed not a tall man, but it is coming towards us, could it be that you are looking for someone present?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, all of them at a loss, and Zhang Bao calmly ordered: "Maybe!" Don't worry, just sit and wait! ”

Although Zhang Bao said this, in fact, he couldn't let go of his heart, so he gave Wu Liang a look, Wu Liang understood and did not sit down, but stood there and watched the movement of the person who came on horseback.

Taking this opportunity, Zhang Bao paid attention to everyone's words and deeds, Shi Jian still looked like he was afraid of being blamed for doing something wrong, he lowered his head timidly, did not speak, and there was no difference in his eyes, it seemed that whether he came or did not come was noble, and it had nothing to do with him.

Looking at the other people, they were also talking about something in private, and for a while, Zhang Bao didn't notice anything unusual at all.

I saw that the man got off the horse, and he didn't even tie the reins of the horse, jumped off the horse and went straight here, and when he ran closer, Wu Liang recognized it at a glance, it was a person from Dali Temple.

"My lord, it seems to be someone from Dali Temple!"

"People from Dali Temple?" Zhang Bao felt that something was wrong, so he immediately stood up and walked towards the outside of the pavilion.

When everyone saw it, they couldn't sit still, so they got up one after another and followed.

"Your Excellency!" The jailer shouted and ran towards the Ten Mile Pavilion.

Wu Liang was the first to run over, and the jailer ran panting in front of him, his legs were weak, and he knelt down directly, saying, "My lord, no...... Oh no......"

"Something happened! Say it! Wu Liang asked.

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Bao had already walked over and asked with a gloomy face, "What's the matter?" What about tall adults? ”

"Lord Hui, Lord Gao, he ...... He's dead......"

"Dead?" Everyone immediately exploded, and Zhang Bao was also very surprised.

"How did you die? Wasn't it okay yesterday? Wu Liang scolded angrily: "What are you doing to eat!" ”

The jailer looked at Zhang Bao and Wu Liang with some horror, and said: "The villain doesn't know, yesterday Wan Cell Boss also drank a few glasses with Lord Gao, Lord Gao looked a little sluggish, and there seemed to be nothing unusual, when Wan Tou went to call Lord Gao up this morning, he found that Lord Gao had lost his breath......

"Bastard!" Zhang Bao was annoyed and angry, kicked the jailer away, and couldn't care about the people behind him, so he went down the mountain directly.

"Your Excellency!" Wu Liang hurriedly chased after him.

The others were also confused for a while, and they all discussed: "What's going on? ”

"That's right! How can you say that death is death? ”

"Let's go! Let's check it out too! ”

"That's right! Let's go! ”

Everyone didn't care about 3721, they all went down the mountain one after another and followed Zhang Bao. Shi Jian walked at the end, looking at Zhang Bao's back as he left in a hurry, he couldn't help but clench his fists, and his face became gloomy. At this time, the man in black who was hiding in the pile of rubbles also quietly left.
