The two looked at each other, Zhang Bao did not immediately say what was the matter, but Shi Jian was full of expectation, gradually, Shi Jian's smiling face disappeared, he looked at Zhang Bao's appearance, and seemed to realize that things were not simple, so he pretended to be a little nervous, and asked, "My lord, what happened?" It's so mysterious. ”

"Prime Minister Gao will be released from Dali Temple in a few days! According to the exact news of Xia Guan, it should be the morning after tomorrow! Zhang Bao still has a smiling face, but his eyes are a little gloomy.

Shi Jian was stunned for a moment, and immediately patted his leg and said, "I thought something was going on!" Mr. Zhang scared me! ”

Zhang Bao looked at Shi Jian with straight eyes, wanting to see what Shi Jian's reaction was.

"Lord Zhang, is this really what you're here for?" Shi Jian asked tentatively.

Zhang Bao smiled and asked rhetorically, "Otherwise, what does His Highness think is the matter?" ”

"Xiao Wang thinks that His Majesty has some reward for Ning Wangfu!" Shi Jian smiled and said, "But this news from my lord is good news for Prime Minister Gao who is in prison!" For Ning Wangfu, there was no impact. ”

"Prime Minister Gao?" Zhang Bao frowned slightly.

"Hehehehe, Xiao Wang made a mistake!" Shi Jian waved his hand, deliberately lowered his voice, and asked, "Xiao Wang has heard that Lord Zhang is about to replace Gao Shangzhi and become the new prime minister!" In this case, presumably the noble one must have been cut down from his post for the people! ”

"Where did you hear all this news from Your Highness?" There was an imperceptible smugness on Zhang Bao's face.

"It's all over the outside!" Shi Jian squinted his eyes slightly and asked, "My lord, Xiao Wang guessed right, right?" ”

"Hehehehe......" Zhang Bao smiled and did not answer Shi Jian directly.

"Congratulations, Lord Zhang!" Shi Jian arched his hand and said: "In the future, above this court, I am afraid that everyone will only look at the head of the adults and horses!" Master Zhang, you can give Xiao Wang a hand or two! ”

"His Royal Highness King Ning is polite! You are the prince of the dynasty, the younger brother of His Majesty, how can you talk about the word "carry up" in front of you? Zhang Bao looked at Shi Jian unhurriedly and asked, "But Gao Shangzhi can be safe and sound this time, it is really Your Majesty's grace!" In this way, His Highness is finally relieved, right? ”

"Me?" Shi Jian didn't seem to understand what Zhang Bao meant.

"Exactly." Zhang Bao said with a smile.

Shi Jian thought about it, rolled his eyes up, unconsciously looked at the top of his head, his eyes straightened, and said slowly: "If you want to say that you don't care about this at all, I'm afraid it is self-deception." ”

"Oh? Your Highness has a personal relationship with the noble? It seems that His Royal Highness has a good relationship with Gao Shangzhi in private? Zhang Bao asked deliberately.

Shi Jian glanced at Zhang Bao and said, "Naturally, there are some personal friends. ”

Zhang Bao's eyes changed slightly, and he asked with a smile: "Your Highness used to live in a simple place, how could he have a personal relationship with Gao Shangzhi?" ”

Shi Jian couldn't help but gasp, frowned, and then asked Zhang Bao, "Master Zhang, why do I think you are tempting me today?" ”

"Temptation? How so? Zhang Bao naturally denied it and explained: "Xia Guan just asked casually!" After all, you and him, Your Majesty are all meritorious, Dali Temple rescued, it was the two of you who worked together to save Your Majesty! ”

"Stop! Master Zhang! Shi Jian suddenly stretched out his hand, patted the table, and said, "The person who saved His Majesty is you, Lord Zhang!" The credit is also you, Lord Zhang, and it has nothing to do with me and the noble! ”

"How can it not be related to the two of you? After all, before the first emperor returned, it was His Royal Highness King Ning who gave His Majesty and his subordinates a place to stay. Zhang Bao explained.

"Forget it!" Shi Jian shook his head and said, "Merit? Does Lord Zhang think that this Ning Wangfu seems to have any credit to speak of? Today's Ning Wangfu is no different from when the first emperor was there. ”

Zhang Bao looked around, as if he didn't understand what Shi Jian meant, and asked, "What does Your Highness mean?" ”

Shi Jian sighed, sneered, waved his hand and said, "That's it!" That's it! This king doesn't want to talk about that! ”

"Your Highness, this is ......" Zhang Bao frowned slightly and asked, "Your Highness thinks Your Majesty is unfair?" ”

"Huh! Master Zhang! I didn't say that! Shi Jian said.

"Huh...... The lower officials acted as if they hadn't heard anything. ”

"But, then again, it's good that the noble ones are fine! If he is executed, then I really doubt how to understand the credit in Zhang Da's mouth. Shi Jian smacked his lips and said, "I just think it's a pity!" ”

Zhang Bao looked at Shi Jian while carefully pondering all his performances just now, trying to find a flaw in order to determine what kind of connection he had with Gao Shangzhi.

"Xia Guan also thinks so, so he also said a few good words in front of His Majesty, and finally His Majesty was kind and gave the noble one a way to live!"

"In this way, Gao Shangzhi owes you a great favor to Lord Zhang!"

"Hehe, I don't dare to say it, Xia Guan has no grievances with him, if you can pull him, you can make a little effort." Zhang Bao said, got up slowly, and said, "Okay, the lower officials will not disturb His Highness!" Leave! ”

"Gone so soon?" Shi Jian hurriedly got up.

"The lower officials still have some things to do, come and visit His Highness another day!" Zhang Bao saluted and said.

"Okay! That big man walks slowly, I won't send it! Shi Jian said.

Zhang Bao glanced back at Shi Jian, smiled slightly, and then brushed his sleeves away.

After Zhang Bao left, Shi Jian, who was originally smiling, instantly turned gloomy, he knew that Zhang Bao came over today to test him and see how deep the water in King Ning's Mansion was.

Shi Jian's couldn't help but clench his fists, his brows tightened, because the situation in front of him began to become more and more severe. Although he knew that the closer he got to the final goal, the more difficult the road would be, but he had to admit that the current situation was more difficult than he expected. Zhang Bao's existence is the biggest threat to Shi Jian at present, and this is also a link that was not considered before, he did not expect that Zhang Bao would be so wary of him.

But what Shi Jian couldn't understand the most was what Zhang Bao did this for.

"Your Highness, do you want to get rid of Zhang Leopard?" A voice came from the doorway.

Shi Jian glanced up at him and said, "It's not too difficult to take his life, but in this way, it will be completely exposed, and this king's plan will be disrupted." ”

"But Your Highness, Zhang Bao, an old fox, is really shrewd, and his subordinates are worried, if it goes on like this, it is tantamount to sitting still."

Shi Jian nodded slightly and said, "This king knows!" It's just that Zhang Bao's threat was something that neither this king nor the adults expected! Maybe the plans should have changed. ”

Shi Jian pondered for a moment, and suddenly ordered: "Zhang Bao just came to give this king a message, the adult is about to be released from prison, and arrange for someone to pick up the adult." ”

"Your Highness, rest assured, my subordinates will personally take the two brothers to pick up the adults and return home."

"No!" Shi Jian said firmly: "What this king wants is not to make a big show, but to hide people's eyes!" ”

"Hide people's eyes? Your subordinates don't understand what you mean, Your Highness......"

Shi Jian glanced at him, his eyes showed a little murderous aura, and he said slowly and gloomily: "According to this king, Zhang Bao will definitely make some fuss about this matter, I am afraid that this time the adults will leave Dali Temple, it will be more difficult than when they entered the temple." ”

"Zhang Bao, this old fox, do you have to harm adults?"

Shi Jian shook his head and said, "Zhang Bao's real target is not an adult, but this king. ”

"You?"

"Humph! To be precise, it is Zhang Bao who doubts the king! This time, he will definitely use the adults to lure this king out! Shi Jian pursed his lips and said, "It's just that this king doesn't know what kind of way he will use!" ”
