"I don't think you thought of it, did you? He's the most cunning one! Zhang Bao said.

"There are only two things I want to know!" Shi Min looked at Zhang Bao and said, "At this point, you should be able to tell a few words of truth." ”

Zhang Bao smiled bitterly and said, "Say it, what's the matter!" ”

"Regarding the death of the first emperor, did you spread the rumor?" Shi Min asked.

"It's not!" Zhang Bao replied decisively.

Shi Min naturally didn't believe Zhang Bao easily, Zhang Bao saw Shi Min staring at him, with a look of disbelief, so he said: "Believe it or not!" ”

"Second question! Does the man in black on Wolong Mountain have anything to do with you? ”

"Shi Min! You should ask Shi Jian these two questions, not me Zhang! If what I expected is correct, the ultimate beneficiary of all these conspiracy is the Thaning Palace! Zhang Bao said.

Shi Min didn't dare to believe Zhang Bao's words easily, and there was some doubt in his eyes.

"Sooner or later, you'll understand why I've come to this point!" Zhang Bao said, glanced up at Shi Min, and said, "I have something unclear and want to ask you!" ”

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"What means did you use to make Wen Cang work for you?"

Shi Min frowned slightly and said, "If I tell you that I don't know anything about Wen Cang, believe it or not!" ”

"Faith!" Shi Min said.

"That's good!" Zhang Bao smiled, groped his right hand in his sleeve, and didn't know what he was digging for, Shi Min couldn't help but be vigilant.

"Don't worry! It's not a secret weapon! Zhang Bao said, took out a small porcelain bottle, lit up in Shi Min's eyes, and then raised his head and poured the contents of the small porcelain bottle into his mouth.

"Zhang Bao!" Shi Min hurriedly got up, even a fool knew that what he swallowed at this time would definitely not be a good thing.

But Zhang Bao's behavior was completely beyond Shi Min's expectations, and it was too late to stop it. Shi Min snatched the porcelain vase from Zhang Bao's hand, but found that he had devoured the contents cleanly, and an indescribable smile appeared on his face.

"What did you eat?" Shi Min asked.

"I, Zhang Bao I, am smart and very high-spirited, and I know that if I fall into such a field today, there will be no way to live, and it is better to die clean than to be humiliated!" Zhang Bao said.

"Your merits and demerits cannot be solved by this little bottle of poison! You have to make it clear and show the world! Shi Min said, dragging Zhang Bao up from the ground.

"It's too late...... Zhang Bao smiled hard, and a mouthful of blood suddenly gushed out of his mouth.

"Zhang Bao!" Shi Min knew that things were not good.

"Shi Min!" Zhang Bao suddenly grabbed Shi Min's clothes and said, "I have something to trust, can you agree?" ”

Shi Min originally hated Zhang Bao to the core, but at this time, he actually nodded.

"In my life, there are two people who have not seen through, and that is the noble and Shijian! You must be careful of Ning Wangfu! Find out the ins and outs, and then go to my grave to tell you! So that I can die blindly! Zhang Bao said with difficulty.

Shi Min thought that Zhang Bao was going to entrust him with something else, but he didn't expect that in the end, he couldn't give up this request.

"Good!"

Zhang Bao grabbed Shi Min's hand tightly, and suddenly fell, and the prime minister of Zhao State died.

Shi Min put him on the ground, covered him with a straw mat that had already been tattered on the ground, and then left in a hurry and hurried back to the palace gate.

When Shi Min arrived, Wang Chong and the others had already killed all of Zhang Bao's men, but there was only one person, that was the old Wang Tou, and he actually chased after him.

At this time, the old king's head was covered in injuries, Wang Chong and the others were almost exhausted, although Shi Jian was also embarrassed, but the sword in his hand was never put down, and it seemed that he was not injured.

"General! What about Zhang Bao? Did you catch it? Wang Chong asked.

"Dead!" Shi Min said.

Hearing the news of Zhang Bao's death, the old king couldn't help but kneel on the ground, his eyes full of sadness and anger.

"You killed it with your own hands?" Shi Jian asked.

"Suicide by poisoning!" Shi Min glanced at Shi Jian.

"Cut the grass and eradicate the roots, this person is stubborn, so there is no need to keep it!" Shi Jian pointed to the old king's head and said.

"Win and lose!" The old king said, with all his strength, he stood up tremblingly, and said to Shi Jian and Shi Min: "Come on! ”

Shi Min did not stop Shi Jian, because he knew that this old king was a wolf that could not be tamed, and it would indeed be a disaster to keep it. The old king's face was bloody, and he swung the iron whip in his hand with all his might, but he couldn't hurt Shi Jian at all, and Shi Jian's move was very fast and accurate, and he cut the throat of the old king's head with just one move.

The old king's left hand subconsciously covered his throat, blood splattered out, and then fell to the ground, convulsed a few times, and then stopped moving.

Shi Min looked at Shi Jian and said, "His Royal Highness King Ning is really good!" ”

Shi Jian smiled and did not speak.

"Wang Chong, are you okay? How were the brothers hurting? Shi Min asked.

"I'm fine!" Wang Chong waved his hand, panting, but there were wounds on his arms, legs, and back.

"Four brothers were badly wounded! There should be no worries about my life, but I have been bedridden for a few months! Wang Chong pointed to a few soldiers leaning against the wall and said.

"Hurry up and bandage them! Send it to Xihuahou Mansion! Shi Min commanded.

"The last general understands!" Wang Chong nodded.

After speaking, Shi Min entered the palace alone, and he wanted to know how this tragedy would end.

At this time, outside the Yongchang Pavilion, the blood flowed like a river, and the corpses were everywhere, and the scene was terrifying. When Shi Min arrived with the halberd, the battle between the two sides was nearing the end, Gao Shirong and his men and horses were all wiped out, and Wen Cang's forbidden army also suffered heavy losses.

"Commander Wenda!"

Wen Cang looked back and saw that it was Shi Min who called him.

"Your Majesty is dead! It was Zhang Bao who did it! Wen Cang said directly.

Shi Min was startled, and when the scuffle was just now, he didn't know what was going on, so Shi Min hurriedly stepped forward to check, only to see that Shi Shi was already lying on the ground with a dagger stuck in his back.

"The wound on Your Majesty's back should not have been fatal! But the dagger was stained with poison, and the throat was sealed with blood! Wen Cang said.

Shi Shi's death was not expected by Shi Min, and such a result made him not know how to explain to Shi Xin for a while.

"Master Hou! What to do? A country cannot be without a king for a day! Gotta figure it out! Wen Cang said again.

Shi Min got up slowly, glanced at Wen Cang, and then at the civil and military officials who had already been in a mess, and couldn't help but feel disdain.

"Zhang Bao has been ambushed! Whoever participates in the rebellion will be taken down! ”

"Who's in charge of the big picture?" Wen Cang asked.

"Your Majesty has died, and the son inherits his father's business! Naturally, His Majesty's eldest son will inherit the throne! Shi Jian's voice suddenly came.

Shi Min turned around, only to find that Shi Jian was already standing not far away, and the people from the patrol battalion had already poured in.

"His Royal Highness King Ning, what do you mean by this? How can the people of the patrol battalion enter the palace? I'm afraid this is not in accordance with the law! Wen Cang said.

Shi Jian glared at Wen Cang and said, "As the commander of the forbidden army, your duty is to protect Your Majesty, and you actually let Zhang Bao successfully assassinate Your Majesty under your nose!" Wen Cang, what crime should you be guilty of! ”

Wen Cang pursed his lips, unconvinced, but Shi Jian's words made him speechless.

"Wen Cang's words are not wrong! No soldiers and horses are allowed to enter the inner courtyard of the palace, King Ning, you can't do it if you want to be the second Zhang Leopard! ”

"Definitely!" Shi Jian said righteously: "I Shi Jian doesn't want to be the second Zhang Bao, but I can be the second Zhou Gongdan!" ”

"His Royal Highness King Ning has a lot of ambition!" Shi Jian scoffed.

"Huh! A country cannot be without a king for a day! The Xihua Marquis Mansion must not want to see the chaos of the Zhao Kingdom, right? Shi Jian said, turned sideways slightly, pointed to the patrol camp behind him, and said: "These people entered the palace not for anything else, just to calm down this riot as soon as possible!" Since the forbidden army under the command of Wen Da cannot take on this duty, then it is up to my patrol battalion to come! ”

"King Ning! You ......"

"You can't get out of my imperial brother's death!" Shi Jian unceremoniously pointed at Wen Cang at this moment and reprimanded.

Wen Cang dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, and stood aside stupidly.

"Someone!" Shi Jian commanded.

"Humble duty!"

"Go and invite my brother's eldest prince! Assist him on his enthronement today! Shi Jian looked at Shi Min firmly and said.
