Chapter 1054: Continuing the Investigation
Before. Because Zhang Fan couldn't sleep at night and saw things by chance. Make them aware of it. Now it's not a simple problem. This looks like it is very vast in the Shu Palace. Now there are so many people gathered. And these people. It also comes from different forces. And come here. It's all purposeful.
That's it. This is where things get complicated. In today's Shu Palace. You can do the math. First of all. Nature is the master of this place. That is, a group of people led by Zhu Xuanqi, the king of Shu. This is considered a side of the force.
And secondly. It's just a few Zhang Fan's officials from the capital. Although Zhang Fan is a gang. There are two factions. After all, only Zhang Fan and a few people want to deal with Zhu Xuanqi. Others. For example, Wang Xilie's group of people. Although they also knew what Zhang Fan's purpose was here. But they have the attitude of watching the fire from the other side. Don't help Zhang Fan. will not help Zhu Xuanqi. Fight with them. How to end up in the end. It has nothing to do with them. In a word. That's what these people are.
And in addition to these two parties. There are other forces as well. Say. Zhang Fan had already learned about it from Yu'er who came to the door after he arrived in Sichuan. The Five Poisons Sect also sent eyeliner in the palace. Although Yu'er promised. This eyeliner will provide Zhang Fan with news. But until now. Zhang Fan hadn't seen the slightest sign that this person was going to help him. Maybe it's because the other party is in a more troublesome situation now. Or maybe the Five Poisons Sect has some new ideas.
But. Leave that aside. All in all. Even if the other party only has such a person in the Shu King's Mansion. But this person still represents a force.
And originally. There should be such a tripartite force in the palace of the King of Shu. But when Zhang Fan learned something that night. He understood. It turned out to be in the dark. There is another force hidden. That. Naturally, it is represented by this Zhao Zijie. Of course. At first, Zhang Fan and the others were not sure that he was a person. Or is there someone else behind it. However, through the investigation of the past two days. Zhang Fan: They didn't find out anything. But even nothing was found. For Zhang Fan, they said. This is already a good signal to them. Explain the back of this Zhao Zijie. There must still be somebody. Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible for him alone to hide his past so perfectly.
All in all. Now. That's it, the four forces. Gather in this Shu King's Mansion. In this way. It always makes people feel. Although this Shu Wangfu is large. However, it may not be able to tolerate such four forces trembling with each other. Maybe. I don't know when. It's going to be destroyed.
Zhang Fan now. There is nothing that can be done. Originally. Before they came. I thought about it a lot, though. But after all, I didn't see it. So there's no way to plan it in detail. So. Before coming to Sichuan. Even before they had contact with the Shu Palace. where they are plotted. It's all about how to get in touch with the Shu Palace. And take the initiative in the idea. But after contact. How can we accomplish this mission? To be honest, they don't have any ideas.
Don't blame them. Although it is said that this matter starts with planning. It's been months now. But at that time. Until I met Zhu Xuanqi's face. All of this stuff. Zhang Fan: They don't know anything about it. Something that is not understood. There are just too many variables. They had no way of predicting it. Maybe I finally figured out a solution. But in the end, it was because the reality was different from what they expected. Something that is quite possible to plan. It simply can't be used at all. So. Before, Zhang Fan and the others gave up the preparation for doing this kind of useless work. Instead, he turned to solve the problem at hand.
Right now. The question is in front of us. Although because of unpreparedness. Let Zhang Fan and them are tired of coping now. Every step of the way is hard. But about this. Zhang Fan didn't have any regrets in his heart. Merely. Even if you don't regret it. It can't just be done. There has to be a breakthrough. Otherwise. Empress Dowager Li won't give him good fruit to eat.
But. This kind of thing is easier said than done. It's hard to do. After all. Where exactly should we find a breakthrough? To be honest, Zhang Fan really didn't have too many thoughts. Since living in the Shu Palace. It's been a few days now. Although this time. He and Zhu Xuanqi would meet almost every day. Talk or something. But. Zhang Fan was still able to obtain very few things.
The reason is not that Zhang Fan does not work hard. It's not that he can't play Zhu Xuanqi by means. It's because of that. In fact, he and Zhu Xuanqi both have the same purpose. Both of them want to find each other's flaws. to plan for their own benefit. If you really talk about it. In fact, both of them are working hard for their own safety.
Merely. So it seems. Zhang Fan is indeed unfavorable. After all, there were many uncertainties before. So what exactly should be done now. Zhang Fan didn't think much about it.
But Zhu Xuanqi is different. Although he didn't know what Empress Dowager Li planned to do to him. Who the hell are you going to send over to trouble him? It was enough to imply that he only needed to know that he was going to be in trouble. Zhu Xuanqi, who knew this. It will be able to do so according to this situation. I did a variety of responses. Speaking of which. He also has a bit of a taste of adapting to change.
In a word. Zhang Fan is making no progress now. So. He had to look for another remedy. And what was discovered that night. Let Zhang Fan realize. This Zhao Zijie. Maybe it's a good breakthrough. After all, he served as a guard in the palace. And not just in the inner courtyard of the palace. I can often see Zhu Xuanqi. And Zhu Xuanqi still trusts him very much. And he often asks him to run errands on weekdays. What's more. He had been in the palace for three years.
Three years. It's so close to Zhu Xuanqi. This Zhao Zijie must have mastered a lot of things. And. Although it is not known what method he used. But it's obvious. The third princess was now completely obedient to him. In this way. There is one more pillow person of Zhu Xuanqi to provide him with news. This is something that Zhao Zijie can master. It is definitely what Zhang Fan needs most at the moment.
If Zhang Fan can win him over. That's naturally the best. Of course. This seems impossible now. After all, it's a little clearer now. There must be someone behind this Zhao Zijie. In this way, it is no longer possible to win him over. But. Even if you don't woo him. Just be able to know what he knows. This is for Zhang Fan. That's enough.
But. Right now. They can't even do that. After all. They didn't know anything about Zhao Zijie at all. This Zhao Zijie doesn't seem to exist in the world before. But when the palace was looking for a guard. It just popped up like this.
"Still. Don't you think this thing makes people feel suspicious? Zhang Fan said. Not bad. It doesn't matter if it's him or the people behind him. All in all. They did a great job. It was perfect too. All the previous news of Zhao Zijie is hidden seamlessly. Even we can't find anything.
"But then again. We can't find out. Will he be able to find out if the King of Shu can find out? Not necessarily. But. If even Zhu Xuanqi doesn't know. Just ask. He is a prince. Dare to casually recruit someone who has no idea of his past background to be his own bodyguard. And is it still in the inner courtyard of the palace? ”
"It's really weird." Wang Meng said. "Don't say it's the palace. Even if it's an ordinary, large family. Hire a nursing home or something. That's all about knowing the details and origin of the other party. Where to learn and so on. It's impossible to ask nothing. Let a man of unknown origin live in his own home. ”
"yes." Zhang Fan nodded. Said. "This Zhao Zijie can be in the palace. It's a strange thing in itself. But. About this matter. You're not very easy to investigate. I'm afraid of things in here. Only the people in the palace can know. So be it. I'll do that. ”
"My lord, I'll do it. Isn't it a little too dangerous? Liang Chao did not agree with Zhang Fan's decision.
"Nope. If it is otherwise. It's really dangerous. Zhang Fan shook his head. Said. "But this Zhao Zijie is the guard of the inner courtyard of the palace. And now I live in the inner courtyard of the palace. Even if you don't talk on weekdays. But I always see him once or twice a day. See him next time. I'll talk to him about it for a while. Probe his mouth.
"Still. Something. I'm afraid he won't be able to tell me. Someone else needs to be asked about the rest of the palace. Let's see if there's anything else going on. Merely. But I don't know who is doing it. Though you will be able to enter and leave the king's house. But if you talk to someone casually. I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion. ”
"Otherwise. My lord. Let's go ask the Five Poisons Sect. Wang Meng said suddenly. Since this third princess is not a member of the Five Poisons Sect. I'm afraid that the Five Poisons Sect has already arranged people in the palace. That's it. They may know something. ”
"Hmm. That's a good idea. Zhang Fan said. They don't even want to tell me who the eyeliner is. But this favor may not be refused. But we can't just count on that. You also need to find someone in the palace who understands the situation and ask for clarification. All in all. Although it is impossible to enter the palace. But somebody has to come out. When the time comes. Go and follow me. It's better to be able to ask something. ”
