Zhan Zhao and others entered the palace to investigate, and their moods were also ups and downs. They thought that the mat and the wooden fish would be clues, but they found nothing.

Just when everyone was disappointed, Eunuch Chen, who served the emperors of three dynasties, said that this wooden fish was not an ordinary wooden fish.

Everyone looked at Eunuch Chen and replied together, "Because it's copper?"

Eunuch Chen smiled helplessly. He looked around and seemed to be quite secret.

Zhao Zhen used a color to Nangong.

Nangong Ping retreated from the guards.

There were only a few people left in the garden, sitting around the table, looking at Eunuch Chen.

Eunuch Chen whispered, “This thing is medicinal.”

Everyone stared at Eunuch Chen and blinked their eyes - medicinal use?

Eunuch Chen nodded, "The first generation of the first emperors who served by the old slave had a stubborn headache, and in severe cases it would be so painful that it could not sleep all night. At that time, an envoy from the Western Regions paid tribute to such a copper wood fish, which cured the headache of the Emperor. After that, every time the Emperor had a headache, as long as he tapped the wooden fish and recited a passage of scripture, it would improve. Therefore, the Emperor was very fond of this thing. This matter was circulated in the Western Regions, so the same style of copper wood fish was made to pay tribute. It was also to meet his preferences. This custom continued to the second generation of the Emperor, that is, the emperor's father. The one given to Liu Hou should be one of the imitations. The only one that can truly treat headaches is the earliest one..."

Zhao Zhen felt it was amazing and asked, "What about the earliest one? I have a headache occasionally. If it is so magical, I want to try it."

"The wooden fish is buried with you." Eunuch Chen replied.

"Oh..." Zhao Zhen seemed to feel a little regretful, just try it.

But after Eunuch Chen finished speaking, he still looked a little uncomfortable, as if he wanted to speak but stopped.

"Dadfather-in-law, what else do you think is suspicious?" Zhan Zhao asked carefully.

"Well... this is a little idea that belongs to Lao Nu... there is no evidence." Eunuch Chen has always been cautious in his words and actions. Even if many people asked him to say this at this time, he still subconsciously went to see Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen smiled slightly and signaled to him but said it was okay.

Eunuch Chen said very cautiously, "I think the earliest wooden fish is not a very auspicious thing."

"Auspicious?" Everyone began to think about the word.

"Muyu is also a magic weapon, it should be a very auspicious thing." Zhao Pu wondered.

"According to Lao Nu's observation, the headache was indeed relieved when the emperor used this wooden fish, but he used this wooden fish more and more frequently later. This shows that the emperor's headache was not only not improved, but it aggravated."

Everyone followed the old man's idea and thought about it, it was true!

"And, after using this wooden fish for a while, the emperor was in a daze and distracted manner, and often felt tired... and he would have nightmares from time to time at night."

"So my father-in-law thinks that wooden fish is an evil thing?" Zhao Pu asked, "The person who paid the tribute was not at ease?"

"I feel this way...but I passed away shortly after the First Emperor, so there is no way to verify it."

Everyone was thinking about Eunuch Chen's words. Since the old man has been an eunuch for so many years, he should have a very accurate intuition...

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen smiled slightly, poked Eunuch Chen, and asked him, "Dadfather, has my appetite increased or decreased recently?"

Eunuch Chen looked at Zhao Zhen helplessly, "Returning to the emperor, it's not much or less than last year."

"Oh?" Zhao Zhen pointed at him with his chin, "Tell the truth!"

My father-in-law sighed and could only answer honestly, "Growth year by year."

Zhao Zhen blinked and asked, "What about comparison with the two emperors?"

Eunuch Chen gave Zhao Zhen a thumbs up, "The two emperors combined are not as good as the emperor!"

Zhao Zhen poked his daughter's belly and was depressed. Zhao Pu and Nangong shook their heads - I was so happy as a meal?

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao—and there was still no progress.

Zhan Zhao grinded his teeth, looked at Zhao Pu, and signaled him to ask him what happened to Lord Wei.

Zhao Pu looked at Lin Yehuo and Bai Yutang, and both of them looked at the sky.

Zhao Pu had no choice. Seeing that Zhao Zhen was in a good mood, he pulled Eunuch Chen over and asked, "Dude-in-law, do you think of Mr. Wei?"

Eunuch Chen thought for a while, "That Wei?"

"Wei or Wei can do it." Zhao Pu said.

"There shouldn't be too many people with this surname. Isn't the Privy Councilor just Wei's surname... Wei's words..."

Before Eunuch Chen could finish his words, Zhao Zhen looked over quietly, "Oh?"

Zhan Zhao and others all knew something was wrong.

Sure enough, Zhao Zhen curled his lips, "I just lost a Grand Marshal last month. You have focused on Privy Councilor this month, right?"

Zhao Pu waved his hand, "Oh, this is nothing, let's ask."

"Hmph." Zhao Zhen's words "dislike" were almost written on his face, and he turned around and continued to poke his daughter.

Xiangxiang hugged Xiao Sizi's arm and said, "Xiao Shizi. My father and emperor are going to drive everyone away."

The little fourth son raised his face and looked at Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen smiled and reached out and pinched his face, "Of course, except for Xiao Sizi, you must not drive away Xiao Sizi."

Bai Yutang and Lin Yehuo both urged Zhao Pu to ask quickly! After asking, he quickly retreated!

Zhan Zhao stretched out his finger and rubbed his brain Ren'er - he probably would have to go on a tour with the adults after the wedding banquet.

"Does the guard surnamed Wei have?" Zhao Pu continued to ask Eunuch Chen.

"have."

Eunuch Chen suddenly seemed to remember something and clapped his hands gently, "There is a guard named Wei! A guard of the late emperor."

"The first emperor?" Zhao Pu looked at Nangong.

Nangong shook his head, he shouldn't know him if he was too far apart.

"After the death of the Emperor, he went back to his hometown to be a local official. He worked hard for many years and was promoted to the imperial city. Now he should be working in the Privy Council." Eunuch Chen did not look at his age, but his memory was really good. "I remember that his name was Wei Xin. I didn't know what position he held in the Privy Council. But when he entered the palace with the Privy Council, I saw him."

Eunuch Chen's words made everyone's hope of being extinguished ignited again. Everyone felt that they had a way of getting along with it!

Zhao Zhen touched his chin and asked Zhan Zhao, "Is this the person?"

"It's possible!" Zhan Zhao said that he remembered the man's voice, and as long as he could hear it again, he should be able to recognize it!

Lin Yehuo asked Eunuch Chen, "This person goes back to work in his hometown... where is he from?"

"Northwest people." Eunuch Chen replied, "I live a very burly life, and the old emperor often sent him out to do business."

"The more I listen, the more I feel it is reliable." Zhan Zhao wanted to go to the Privy Council quickly.

Everyone said goodbye and wanted to withdraw. Zhao Zhen originally wanted to keep Xiao Sizi for a meal, but Zhao Pu took his son and ran away.

After everyone left, Zhao Zhen asked Eunuch Chen who was adding tea to him, "Why do you remember the guard surnamed Wei so clearly?"

Eunuch Chen smiled slightly and whispered, "Because the late emperor told me about this guard."

"Oh?" Zhao Zhen was curious, "What did he say?"

"I remember it really well. The late emperor should have sent him to do something secretly. After he finished the job, he reported it back. The late emperor praised him for his ability and gave him a reward, and he should be quite satisfied... But after Wei Xin left, the late emperor suddenly asked me, 'What do you think of this guard?'"

Zhao Zhen found it interesting. No matter which of his ancestors, the "Last Emperors" were suspicious, "So how did my father-in-law answer?"

Eunuch Chen was a little helpless, "The old slave is just a servant and cannot interrupt the serious business."

"Then don't you know the answer?" Zhao Zhen asked.

Eunuch Chen shook his head, "I say it is not possible to know or not."

Zhao Zhen nodded. Indeed, saying "knowing" became an eunuch who interfered in politics. If he said "not knowing", the late emperor might think that he had two hearts, and it was indeed difficult to accompany the king as if he was a tiger.

"How did my father-in-law answer?" Zhao Zhen and Nangong were both curious, and even Xiao Xiangxiang looked at Eunuch Chen with her face raised.

"The old slave just brought tea and water, so I can only talk about bringing tea and water." Eunuch Chen said, "So the answer at that time was that Lord Wei was always dressed neatly every time he came to report his life. He should have been drinking water and eating before coming."

When Zhao Zhen heard this, he laughed loudly, "It's interesting."

Nangong Ji was a little puzzled and asked Eunuch Chen, "What does this mean?"

Eunuch Chen said righteously, "The guards who usually come to the palace to reply are mostly dusty. Whether they are loyal or traitors, they can't catch up with water and come to the palace to meet the saint immediately. Zhong was full of only the things the emperor told him, and was eager to report. The traitors wanted to make the emperor feel that he was loyal and eager to report. There were basically no guards who came out to do something, so calmly."

Nangong thought about it and felt that this statement was reasonable, so he asked, "What does this mean?"

"This shows that this person is not loyal to me and does not want to please me." Zhao Zhen smiled clearly, "There are two possibilities for this person's identity."

Speaking of this, Zhao Zhen looked at Nangong, as if he wanted to test him, "What two possibilities do you think are?"

"Well..." Nangong thought for a while, "Who is an official?"

Zhao Zhen nodded, "This is one of them."

Nangong touched his chin and felt contradictory. Why did Wuxin become an official in the inner guard? It requires layers of selection to be a large inner guard, which is very difficult. Wouldn't it be more free and easy to be a military officer?

"Is it because of a ulterior motive? Spy?"

Zhao Zhen teased Nangong, "If it's really a spy, you should flatter and pretend."

Nangong had to shake his head--I can't think of it.

Zhao Zhen smiled, reached out and poked Xiangxiang who was eating snacks, "Do you know?"

Xiao Xiangxiang looked at his father with big eyes.
