win the hairpin

Chapter 26

The King of Jin trusted Xie Chuan, and Xie Chuan was able to get close to the King of Jin easily, and he was easy to control with his family.

While thinking, he rolled the list into a cylinder and tapped it in the palm of his hand.

trust?

After the great change ten years ago, people around him rebelled on the way to escape. How much trust can King Jin have in the people around him?

At that time, he took the opportunity of getting off the boat to buy things, and even got rid of Xie's family, and only brought a young girl who didn't understand anything.

"If Plague Monkey hadn't died, he could have entered the palace alone and killed King Jin," Zhang Xuzhang lay on his back in the chair, looked at the gorgeous algae well above his head, and complained unabashedly, "A few years ago, I and My aunt said that we should get rid of King Jin as soon as possible while he is still fledgling, and my aunt would not listen to me for fear of losing the emperor's heart."

Now that King Jin can't get in the water, it will be even more difficult to do business again.

Zhan Shizhao said in a low voice: "The king of Jin is the son of a dragon after all. Although the emperor doesn't ask, he still remembers it in his heart. He hastily assassinated him. If it succeeds, the emperor will be suspicious of us. If it fails, we will leave traces. The imperial concubine and empress will also It's very difficult, above the court, it's always a matter of pulling one hair and moving the whole body."

After speaking, he saw that Zhang Xutang didn't take it seriously, and added: "The emperor is not limited to these two sons."

Although the Zhang family controls the government, this world is the emperor's world, not their Zhang family's world.

There are not only their Zhang family in the world, but also other courtiers.

Zhang Xutang said with a smile: "Then the only one left in the emperor is our Lord Yan."

Zhan Shizhao made him tremble with fright, and wanted to go up and cover his mouth: "Second Master, be careful!"

"What are you afraid of?" Zhang Xutang seemed to want to scare Zhan Shizhao deliberately, and opened his mouth to confide in his heart, "Which dynasty or generation's throne was not killed in this way, and the remaining ones will be kings."

However, some snipe and clam fight each other for the fisherman's benefit, and they are afraid that they will kill others and end up taking advantage of others.

Zhan Shizhao didn't dare to answer, and kept silent, thinking that the winner would be king, and he couldn't make a conclusion on who would win until the end.

Zhang Xutang laughed at him: "No wonder Dad asked you to follow me. It turns out that you are timid and can neutralize me."

He took back the truth that he had uncovered—the unscrupulous words, and no longer provoked Zhan Shizhao, lest the matter of poisoning King Jin was not done well, and Zhan Shizhao would be scared to death first.

"Compared to Xie Chuan, I think King Jin trusts Huang Ting more. It's a pity that Huang Ting has nothing to worry about, and he follows King Jin without showing his face. He is also an impenetrable character."

Zhan Shizhao nodded: "So this subordinate thinks that Xie Chuan should be used. After the matter is completed, Xie Chuan will apologize with death, which has nothing to do with us."

Zhang Xutang shook his head, threw away the booklet, put both hands under the desk, buckled it firmly, pushed out the hidden compartment, and took out a white porcelain bottle from inside.

Under the light, the porcelain bottle had a soft and delicate yellow luster, and a red string was tied to the cork. Zhang Xutang put his fingers in the red string and swung the porcelain bottle around.

"Second Master, be careful!" Zhan Shizhao turned pale with shock, rushed up and hugged the porcelain bottle with both hands, took it off and put it on the case.

Zhang Xutang smiled and said, "Why are you nervous, I won't smash such a rare poison."

Zhan Shizhao thought it was hard to say.

Zhang Xutang stared at the porcelain vase with dim eyes: "Both Huang Ting and Xie Chuan think highly of King Jin, but have you ever thought about who is most important to King Jin? Who gave him the things?" , he will eat it unprepared?"

After finishing speaking, he turned his gaze to Zhan Shizhao: "You have to know that my aunt doesn't take a sip of the water outside, and there are several people who test her poison, people who come out of the palace..."

Before the words were finished, but the meaning was exhausted, he laughed twice.

"The urgent matter must be postponed. We have just arrived, and the King of Jin must be on guard against the wind. If we rashly employ people, we will overwhelm the enemy, and it will be even more difficult to do so in the future."

Zhan Shizhao responded: "The subordinates will investigate more."

"Yes, dig three feet to check."

Zhang Xutang picked up another tabloid and read it over and over again: "These two people fought for the head of the cow, and their heads were smashed. They all said that the people are more valuable than the king, but in fact people are not as valuable as cattle. I am a pariah and a pariah. deceive me."

Looking at the tabloids on August [-]th, Zhang Xutang almost looked cross-eyed.

Unfortunately nothing.

Mid-Autumn night, the middle of the third autumn, the silver moon is full of brilliance, and the golden wind and jade dew meet, which is just the time to play.

Zhang Xuzhang led the young son, an idler, and occupied the Tianxing Pavilion early, climbed up to look far, and leaned on the railing to enjoy the moon.

The streets are crowded with each other, and the night market doesn't close until five o'clock. No matter rich or poor, everyone tries their best to celebrate the festival.

Zhang Xutang was pointing in the attic, forgetting his sexuality, and when he was happy, he suddenly heard a loud noise from below.

Zhan Shizhao went down and took a look, it turned out that a few vicious teenagers and idlers were holding the Tianxing Pavilion, and no one else was allowed to come up.

If it was normal, the common people would not dare to fight against the Zhang family for Shangtianxing Pavilion, but today is different, the three-year tribute examination, all the prefectures and transportation departments of all roads will be released today, and the two tribute houses on Jingnan South Road are both in Tanzhou , today is the first day of the test.

The people who went to take the test came as bee pupae, and the relatives and friends who sent for the exam also came here. They came to Tianxing Pavilion specially to pay homage to the two gods, Wenchang Emperor and Kuixing, and pray for a prosperous literary fortune.

Unexpectedly, Tianxing Pavilion let Zhang Jiaba.

"Why are you not allowed to enter? Are you the emperor or the state officials! Or is this pavilion built by your family!"

"Even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu is here, there is no reason why people are not allowed to worship God!"

"We want to go in, can you still beat us to death?"

Zhang Xutang listened with relish, and said to the people around him: "These people are really pitiful, they are incompetent, and they bark like mad dogs."

The teenagers laughed out loud and took the dispute as a joke.

Listening, Zhan Shizhao suddenly approached Zhang Xutang, and said in a low voice, "Second Lord, something is wrong, listen."

"With a father who is in charge, can he occupy all the gods? No wonder the court is also occupied."

"If you stop us from worshiping God today, you will stop us from being named on the gold list in the future! Who doesn't know that you hate Teacher Lu!"

"That is, in the future, how can the students of our Yuelu Academy stand out in the hands of Master Zhang!"

"King Jin has been here for ten years, and he hasn't occupied a single plant or tree. Today, he is still sending out the 'Huangjiatoukui Chicken' outside the tribute courtyard, so that everyone can take a good omen!"

"The Zhang family covers the sky with only one hand, and I will be nominated on the gold list in the future, and I will never vote for him!"

Zhang Xutang's expression changed, and the others also looked at each other in blank dismay.

How come, these words have changed?

"I'm going out, you guys go home," Zhang Xutang hurriedly went downstairs, and turned to Zhan Shizhao again, "find the people who talked."

At the front of the steps, Zhang Xutang inserted the folding fan, and made a deep bow to everyone: "My folks misunderstood, I, Zhang, dare not occupy the Tianxing Pavilion, it's because Xiao has something on his mind, and it's hard to say it in front of everyone. Come secretly to make a wish during the Mid-Autumn Festival."

After he finished speaking, he beckoned the villain to come over and confessed his mistake.
