Ma Youliang immediately understood. He pondered and recalled that he had felt this way before. He also conducted an investigation, but the result made him feel a little heartbroken.
There is no trace like this, the antelope hangs its horns, is it all God's will?
If it weren't for God's will, Dai Wang would actually have such means to play with officials, kings, and emperors in applause?
When I think about it like this, I feel a chill running down my spine.
"Your Majesty, maybe it's a coincidence that we have such a problem today? Otherwise, I really can't figure out why this is happening."
Ma Youliang had been with the King of Shu for more than ten years, and he was the mastermind. Their friendship and status were different. In addition, the King of Shu was polite to the corporal, and he was even more polite to talents. Ma Youliang thought so, so he said so.
The King of Shu was indeed not angry at Ma Youliang's words, but he shook his head: "It can't be a coincidence."
With that said, the pacing King of Shu stopped, turned around and stared at Ma Youliang, with a dark fire flashing in his eyes: "Is there any movement from the people in the Prince's Palace?"
Even though the former King Dai was already his grandson, the King of Shu did not recognize this result and refused to admit that Su Zi was his grandson. When talking to his advisers, he always addressed him as King Dai.
Ma Youliang bit his lip and shook his head: "Our people have been keeping an eye on it. There is currently no report. More detailed information will be reported to the king after the ministers have gathered it."

Ma Youliang said, stopped talking, thought for a long time, and then said: "In the past, these may have been profits for the king. It is normal for the king to be suspicious."
"But the biggest victim in this matter is probably King Dai."
"Oh? How do you say this?" King Shu was grounded by his father, and his head kept buzzing. Although he was analyzing the matter, he was actually filled with anger. He couldn't calmly think about it, but he instinctively doubted the king.
The King of Shu had not yet thought about what Ma Youliang had thought of. When he heard this, he was immediately startled, and then said: "If you have something to say, tell it quickly."
"Your Majesty, there is an issue of identity and transmission here."
Ma Youliang paced slowly under the gaze of the King of Shu: "Just think, most of the position of grandson comes from the prince, and the prince comes from the emperor. It is only natural that the son inherits his father's legacy."
"This is a famous instrument."
"Now that it has been revealed that the relationship between the crown prince and the emperor is not only unloving as a father and filial as a son, but also incompatible with each other and life and death enemies. I would like to ask - even if it is a rumor, how can the emperor safely pass the throne to his grandson?"
"Moreover, when father and son meet with swords, no matter who is right or wrong, the prince has no inheritance rights. If the prince does not, how can he have a grandson?"
Because when he got to the point, Ma Youliang even forgot to change his words and started calling Su Ziji his grandson.
"Just wait and see. Whether it's true or false, right or wrong, at least Taisun will be eliminated - isn't this a good thing?"
"Although the king is in trouble, he has actually taken a big step closer."
The King of Shu was lost in thought while listening. After a while, he turned from anger to joy: "If you think about it, it's really like this. The one who will be hurt the most is King Dai."
"King Dai is not a fool. He is a man who can trick both me and King Qi. He can coax his father into making him his grandson. How could he not have thought of this, let alone commit suicide?"
It is a matter of great importance and the lives of the whole family. Others may not have thought of it for a moment, but it is impossible for the king to not think of it. Just like myself, as the king of Shu, although it is impossible to think about all the factors, it is related to my own future.
The escape route, the safety of my life, and even the future of my wife and children, I would think about over and over again when I couldn't sleep at night.
The king must be like this too.
Besides, even if the acting king can be stupid, the acting king also has advisers. Isn't there anyone with a clear head?
The person who did this might not be the acting king.
But if it wasn’t the acting king, who could it be?
Anyway, it’s not me, not the acting king, and it’s not me. Could it be...
"Did King Qi start the rumor?" King Shu asked hesitantly.
But to be honest, King Shu didn't believe it when he said it was King Qi who did it.
He and King Qi have been fighting for decades, and they know each other well. Let’s not say whether King Qi will do this. Even if he does, King Qi doesn’t have such ability!
If it could be done, shouldn't King Qi have done it long ago?
If the King of Qi had done this earlier, maybe the person who was appointed as the crown prince first would not be the acting king, but the King of Qi!
After all, there were only two and a half princes competing for the throne at that time. The half prince has been eliminated. Now he is demoted to the Ninghe County Prince, which means that he and the King of Qi are on a par with each other. If the King of Qi then kills him,
, won’t the King of Qi ascend to the throne?
Ma Youliang also knew what the King of Shu was thinking. He hesitated and said, "Maybe it's an outsider."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he suddenly felt that it was possible. He couldn't help but said, "Who benefits the most from such rumors?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Ma Youliang's expression changed.
Obviously, he has thought of a possibility.
The King of Shu also thought of this possibility and gasped: "Could it be those remnants of the previous dynasty who are fanning the wind to light the fire?"
The two looked at each other, and King Shu's expression changed drastically. After thinking about it carefully, he was convinced.
"Nine times out of ten, that's the case. Hurry, Chuan Gu's order is to immediately cut off all contact between our government and Cao Yiyan!"
Damn it, it was actually this thief who was trying to trap him. Not only was he trying to frame his grandson, but he was also dragging himself into the water. He was trying to get his royal colleagues to fight and sneak in again!
The King of Shu thought clearly in an instant, gritted his teeth, and turned pale: "Anyone involved in the palace will be killed immediately, and no one will be left alive."
"yes!"
Taisun Mansion
Although the original palace was full of palaces, pavilions, pavilions, pavilions and corridors, and was full of greenery and greenery, it was very impressive, but after being granted the title of Empress Dowager, perhaps due to psychological effects, the whole palace and courtyard became even more dense and dense.
, shrouded in smoke.
The rules have also become stricter. At night, except for some courtyards that still have lights on, most others have turned off their lights to rest. Only the hanging lanterns sway slightly in the night wind.
"Zhengzhengzheng!"
Just as a few patrolling guards with the faint sound of armored clothes passed by, a figure passed by on the cobblestone road not far away, passed through a flower corridor, and arrived at the base of the outer wall.
This person looked like he was on patrol, and he was somewhat respectable among the guards, but strangely, he seemed a bit sneaky when he appeared in this place.
He stood under the corner of the wall, glanced to the side first, and saw that no one was nearby, then he took out a palm-sized stone from his arms and threw it out of the wall.
Plop, grunt.
The sound of stones falling to the ground came from outside the wall. The man who secretly threw the stones out did not leave immediately. Instead, he stood there and listened to the sound.
At this moment, a very subtle sound came from outside the wall. If you listen carefully, you can tell that this is someone walking softly. This is the sound of subtle footsteps!
After the man heard this voice, he breathed a sigh of relief, it’s done!
As a result, when he turned around, he saw a person standing ten meters away, which almost made him scream.
"You..." I almost shouted out, but because I was too nervous, the rest of the words got stuck in my throat.
"Zheng Huai, what are you doing?" The man walked out from under the shadow of the tree, frowning and staring.
Zheng Huai's chest was still beating wildly, but his face showed an innocent look, and he said calmly: "So it's you, Bo Yan. If it hadn't been me, if it had been someone else, I would have been frightened to death by your sudden appearance, so late at night.
...As for what I was doing, there seemed to be some movement outside just now. I was a little worried, so I hit it with a stone to see if there was a thief."
It was quite bluffing to say this. After all, what he threw was nothing but stones. It was not unreasonable to say so.
