From the analysis of Wu Liang's words, all his guesses are indeed reasonable, and most of Zhang Bao's doubts before seem to be able to be easily solved. （）

"Is there really any secret in the Xihuahou Mansion?" Zhang Bao frowned and muttered to himself.

"There must be some secret in the Xihua Hou Mansion, although the lower officials don't know what it is, but ......"

"But what?" Zhang Bao asked again.

"It seems that there is no other way but to explain it this way!"

Zhang Bao shook his head slightly and said: "But there is one more point, don't forget, Shi Zhan died in the hands of the Xianbei people in order to cover the retreat of the first emperor!" If he had the intention to seek power and usurp the throne, how could he take his own life! ”

Zhang Bao's question seemed to make Wu Liang unable to refute, he pondered for a moment, and then said to Zhang Bao: "When Shi Zhan died, he didn't know that Shi Zun would rebel, as far as the situation at that time is concerned, the current throne should be sat by Shi Zun, and Shi Zhan and Shi Zun have always been at odds, once Shi Zun sits in the world, the Xihua Marquis Mansion will suffer!" Xia Guan thinks that Shi Zhan's death may be an accident, he originally just wanted to gamble, but he lost the bet, if he doesn't die, then this expedition, except for the first emperor, the first credit must be his. ”

"No...... Zhang Bao took a deep breath, frowned, squinted his eyes and said, "There is still a problem with this matter!" ”

"Xia Guan thinks that the speculation of Xia Guan just now is completely possible!" Wu Liang calmly said to Zhang Bao: "My lord, think about it! Before the expedition, the first emperor asked Shi Zhan to send troops, but Shi Zhan said that his men and horses had been fighting for many years and needed to rest. Can Xia Guan believe that Shi Zhan did this to preserve his strength? He calculated everything, but he didn't expect to die. ”

"But when Shi Zhan died, who told the Xianbei people the location of the first emperor's camp?"

"Didn't you hear that Shi Zun did that thing?" Wu Liang was a little puzzled.

"At first, I thought so, because Shi Zun had the ability and motivation to do this! But Shi Min didn't believe it! He suspected that someone else was the mastermind of the incident. ”

Wu Liang was stunned for a moment and asked, "My lord, what clues does Shi Min have?" ”

Zhang Bao shook his head and said, "Shi Min doesn't have any clues at hand!" But his suspicions should not be groundless! Perhaps this is also the reason why he believes in the noble words. ”

"But what a mysterious man the noble man is talking about, it is purely his own words! No one knows, no one sees! My lord, you've been checking for so long, don't you have no clue at all? ”

But why would Gao Shang say this? Is it for nothing? Zhang Bao asked Wu Liang rhetorically, Wu Liang was silent, and Zhang Bao said: "I never believe that noble words are nonsense!" ”

"Xia Guan thinks that the adult's suspicion of Gao Shang Zhi is very reasonable, but the Xihua Marquis Mansion may not be clean!"

Zhang Bao pondered, sat down slowly, and said, "The noble one will be released in two days!" If the noble one escapes from the world, the sea of adults in the world is vast, I'm afraid it's really hard to find him! What do I mean, you know? ”

Wu Liang nodded and said, "What the adults mean, the lower officials understand!" Since the adults suspect that Gao Shangzhi has any secrets, they must find out before Gao Shangzhi leaves Ye Cheng! ”

"That's right! Don't miss the opportunity! Zhang Bao nodded slightly, and then asked, "Then what tricks do you have?" ”

At this time, the subordinates in Wu Liang's mansion finally brought the food over, and Wu Liang hurriedly said: "My lord, eat something first, and let the officials think about it!" ”

Wu Liang poured wine for Zhang Bao, while thinking about giving advice to Zhang Bao, and Zhang Bao instructed: "I've been in a bad mood lately, drink some with me!" ”

Wu Liang hurriedly responded: "The lower official obeys the order!" ”

Zhang Bao ate a few bites of meat and said slowly: "I won't tell you, there is a person, I have always doubted him!" ”

"Who are you talking about?" Wu Liang hurriedly put down the wine bottle and asked.

"Ning Wang Shijian!"

"King Ning?" Wu Liang was a little surprised, and said: "King Ning has no ambitions and no talents, why do adults doubt him?" ”

Zhang Bao shook his head, sighed, and said, "I don't know...... I can't find the slightest evidence that he is the master of those men in black, but I have an inexplicable intuition! Our Royal Highness King Ning, I'm afraid it's not that simple. ”

"My lord, with all due respect, the lower official thinks you may be suspicious." Wu Liang said.

"Why?" Zhang Bao asked, picking up the wine bottle.

"If King Ning is the master of those black-clothed people, then he is definitely not the same person as what others see on weekdays, which shows that he has to cover himself up in front of people every day, for decades! This is not something half the people can do! Xia Guan believes that it is impossible for anyone to pretend to be a fool in front of people for decades without showing his feet. ”

Zhang Bao pursed his lips, and suddenly remembered that a few days ago, he pretended to be crazy and stupid to avoid Shi Hu's butcher's knife, but in just a few months, he pretended to almost collapse. Thinking about it carefully, it is true that it is more difficult to have two appearances for decades than to ascend to the sky, and Zhang Bao also believes that no one in the world will have such forbearance.

But what if Shi Jian really did it? Then this person's city is too deep! Thinking of this, Zhang Bao himself felt terrible.

At this time, Wu Liang on the side said again: "But if Shi Jian has really been holding back, then what he is trying to do must be not small!" ”

Zhang Bao was shocked, and couldn't help but spit out a sentence: "Could it be that he wants to usurp the throne?" ”

"Usurpation?" Wu Liang was taken aback, then laughed again, and said, "My lord, you are too worried! King Ning has no soldiers and horses, and no one in the court supports him, what will he take to seize the throne? What's more, with you as an adult, no one can set off any storms! ”

"Hey...... Maybe I'm really thinking too much......" Zhang Bao couldn't help but put down his chopsticks, rubbed his face, and then yawned.

Looking at Zhang Bao's tired appearance, Wu Liang said on the side: "My lord has really done his best for Zhao Guo!" Take care of yourself! ”

"Hehe, the food king's Lu bears the king's worries! If we don't share your Majesty's worries, who else will come? ”

"Yes, yes, yes! That's exactly what you say! Wu Liang nodded again and again.

"Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, the foundation is not stable, and those of us who are courtiers still have a lot to do!" Zhang Bao picked up the chopsticks, glanced at Wu Liang, and said with a smile: "You must always remember who you are doing things for." ”

Wu Liang comprehended, smiled mysteriously, saluted and said, "Xia Guan understands!" ”

"Tell me, do you have an idea?" Zhang Bao asked.

Wu Liang put down his chopsticks and pondered for a moment, while Zhang Bao waited for his idea while drinking.

"Come to think of it, this noble may be the only breakthrough! Since the adults are suspicious of Shi Jian, and they can't rule out the suspicion of the Xihua Hou Mansion, it is better to lure the snake out of the hole! ”

"What do you mean to lure a snake out of a hole?" Zhang Bao put down his chopsticks and ordered: "You tell me in detail!" ”

Wu Liang nodded, got up and knelt next to Zhang Bao, and muttered in his ear to tell Zhang Bao all his ideas.
