Chapter 543
Zhang Bao walked out of King Ning's mansion, and couldn't help but glance back, this ordinary mansion caused him to think hard.
"Did I guess wrong?" Zhang Bao carefully recalled all the performances of Shi Jian just now, and didn't seem to find any flaws, and couldn't help but wonder a little.
When the coachman saw Zhang Bao standing there stunned, he reminded: "My lord, please get in the car, it's cold outside!" ”
Zhang Bao came back to his senses, glanced at the coachman, and then turned over and climbed into the carriage.
The coachman closed the curtain and asked, "My lord, are you going home or where are you going?" ”
Zhang Bao thought for a while and said, "Don't go home, go to Lord Wu!" ”
"Yes."
The horseman waved his whip and shouted "hey", and a thin horse pulled a carriage and left Ningwang's mansion with a "creak".
Zhang Bao sat in the rickety carriage, his eyes slightly closed, quietly contemplative, he thought about the whole thing over and over again.
From beginning to end, Shi Jian didn't realize that Zhang Bao would become a stumbling block for himself, and Zhang Bao also didn't think that Shi Jian would be an unpredictable person for him.
What kind of connection is between Shi Jian and Gao Shangzhi, Zhang Bao has no clue at all, even if Shi Jian really has some secrets, then what is his purpose? Is it a usurpation?
All of this has plunged Zhang Bao into an endless mystery, although he suspects Shi Jian, but so far, he has not caught any of his handles, even if he observes words and looks and secretly monitors, he has never found anything unusual about Shi Jian. But this seemingly dull King Ning gave Zhang Bao a feeling of unease, he thought that this was a manifestation of great wisdom and foolishness, and King Ning was either a good-for-nothing fool or a hidden capable person. Zhang Bao secretly swore that he must figure out these things, because such a deep scheming has to be said to be a great threat, in his heart, as long as it is his stumbling block, anyone can be sacrificed.
Before I knew it, the carriage stopped, and the coachman said outside, "My lord, it's here!" ”
Zhang Bao opened his eyes slightly and ordered, "Go and report it." ”
"Yes......"
Zhang Bao slowly adjusted his sitting posture and pulled out a holy decree from his sleeve, he slowly opened it to see that what was written on the holy decree was a forgiveness of the noble. Before leaving Yongchang Pavilion, Shi Shi had already handed over the pardon to Zhang Bao, but he was not in a hurry to announce the decree, because he had not yet figured out how to announce this holy decree.
After two glances, Zhang Bao put away the holy decree again, and it didn't take long for Wu Liang's voice to come from outside the car: "The adults have arrived, and the lower officials have lost their distance!" Please forgive me! ”
Zhang Bao lifted the curtain, glanced at Wu Liang, who was standing outside respectfully, smiled slightly, and said, "Lord Wu, this official came to you to eat!" ”
Wu Liang was confused, and hurriedly responded: "Thanks to the adults, the lower officials will order someone to arrange it, my lord, please move to the cold house!" Wait a minute! ”
Zhang Bao got off the carriage, and the coachman followed behind him with one of his fur furs, Wu Liang saw this, took the fur fur, and immediately draped Zhang Bao on his body.
"The weather is cold, adults still have to pay attention to keep warm, don't get cold!" Wu Liang said respectfully.
Zhang Bao smiled slightly and glanced at Wu Liang with satisfaction.
When I came to the front hall of Wu Liang's mansion, the charcoal basin had been prepared, and as soon as I entered the house, it was a warm feeling, which made people feel comfortable. Wu Liang stepped forward to take off the fur fur for Zhang Bao and said, "My lord, the food will be there soon, you wait!" ”
Zhang Bao walked around the front hall with his hands behind his back, ignoring Wu Liang, which made him a little confused, he didn't know what Zhang Bao was thinking, he could only obediently follow Zhang Bao and listen to his orders.
Suddenly, Zhang Bao opened his mouth and said, "Lord Wu, your official residence is much more magnificent than Naning Wangfu!" It seems that you have been in politics for many years, and you have not lost any benefits? ”
When Wu Liang heard this, he couldn't help but shudder, not knowing what Zhang Bao meant.
"My lord, everything about the lower officials is given by you! Other people's, without the approval of adults, the lower officials do not dare to ask for it. Zhang Bao bowed his head and said.
"Hehe, you're very sensible!" Zhang Bao smiled slightly.
"Your Excellency came here today, there must be something going on, right?" Wu Liang asked tentatively.
Zhang Bao turned around, glanced at Wu Liang, and said, "What would you do if the official told you that your wish had been fulfilled?" ”
Wu Liang was stunned for a moment, then knelt down and said: "The grace of the lord, the lower official is unforgettable!" In the future, this life of the lower official is yours! ”
"Get up!" Zhang Bao raised his hand slightly and said, "What does this official want your life to do?" Your life, you have to keep it to do things for your own officials! ”
"Yes, yes, yes! The subordinates have always only obeyed the orders of adults! Wu Liang excitedly saluted Zhang Bao again and again.
"The decree will come down in the next year, you can wait a few more days!"
Wu Liang nodded, looked at Zhang Bao's face again, and asked tentatively: "My lord seems to have something on his mind today, I don't know if there is anything that can make the lower officials serve?" ”
"The man in black has appeared in Yecheng several times, you know, right?"
Wu Liang thought for a while and said, "I know, I assassinated Your Majesty on the street a few days ago!" Fortunately, there are soldiers and horses from the forbidden army and the Xihua Hou Mansion to escort them, otherwise something would have happened! ”
Zhang Bao nodded slightly.
"Could it be that Lord Sensei is worried about this? As far as the lower officials know, His Majesty has handed over this matter to the patrol battalion to investigate, why are you worried? ”
"How can you be at ease if you have a pair of eyes that you can't see all the time staring at you?"
"This ......" Wu Liang was speechless for a while, a little confused, and asked: "Could it be that adults think that these people in black are a threat to you?" ”
"Recently, the official has begun to slowly feel that the water in this Yecheng seems to be getting deeper and deeper, so deep that the official is a little taboo!" Zhang Bao said, turned to look at Wu Liang, and said, "What is the identity of these black-clothed people, and who they obey, no one knows!" ”
"Your Excellency is in Yecheng, can't you even find out?"
Zhang Bao shook his head and said, "If it can be found out so easily, this official doesn't have to bother so much." ”
"Xia Guan once heard that those black-clothed people were so strong in martial arts that even the wolf cavalry captain of the Xihua Marquis Mansion didn't take much advantage of them! To be able to raise such a powerful assassin, I'm afraid that there are not many people in the entire Zhao Kingdom who have this ability, right? ”
Zhang Bao asked, "What is your opinion?" ”
"Xia Guan thinks that these assassins could be the people of the Xihua Marquis Mansion itself?"
"What do you mean?"
"My lord, you think, the most unpredictable thing for you right now must be what the intentions of these men in black are."
Zhang Bao nodded and said, "That's right, you go on!" ”
"Xia Guan heard that these men in black have saved His Majesty and assassinated His Majesty, which shows that this group of people does not really want to control Your Majesty to death! Otherwise, when I was in Dali Temple, there would be no need to save Your Majesty and your lordship! ”
"Listen to what you mean, this group of people is actually helping Your Majesty!"
"The lower officials are foolish, and think that it should be like this! And except for the Xihua Marquis Mansion, Xia Guan couldn't imagine who had so many masters under him. ”
Zhang Bao took a deep breath, he really had never thought in this direction, Wu Liang's short words seemed to remind him. Wu Liang chatted a few words, but what he said was also very reasonable, and for a while, Zhang Bao wanted to overturn all his previous ideas.
It's just that in this way, if things are really as Wu Liang said, then what kind of trick is the Xihua Marquis Mansion doing? Could it be that since Shi Zhan was alive, the Xihua Marquis Mansion has been planning something?
"Wu Liang."
"The lower official is here."
"In your opinion, if these black-clothed people are really the subordinates of the Xihua Hou Mansion, then what kind of heart did Shi Zhan's father and son have in the first place?"
Wu Liang thought for a while and said, "It's not easy to say, and the lower officials are not sure." ”
Zhang Bao was a little impatient, and frowned slightly: "Say whatever you want!" ”
"Yes......" Wu Liang responded: "If the following officials say, those people are from the Xihua Hou Mansion, then it can only be explained that the Xihua Hou Mansion may be plotting to rebel!" ”
"Plotting a rebellion?" Zhang Bao was startled, and his face changed instantly.
"If you think about it, when the first emperor was there, the Xihua Marquis Mansion can be said to be favored and the scenery is infinite. Shi Zhan's military achievements are outstanding, Wen Taowu is strategic, and no one among the sons of the first emperor can match him, to be honest, the lower officials admire him very much. And Shi Zhan himself must know very well that even if he has made great contributions, it is impossible for the first emperor to pass on the throne to him! Because he is Han. Therefore, Xia Guan thinks that it is impossible for Shi Zhan's heart not to have considered the matter of rebellion! ”
"What you said seems to have some truth!" Zhang Bao's face became even more ugly, and he said slowly: "These things, this official has never thought about this aspect!" ”
Zhang Bao sighed and carefully scrutinized Wu Liang's words.
