When Zhang Liang raised his head suddenly, he saw Guo Jia standing behind with a smile on his face, it was the teasing look in his eyes that made Zhang Liang at a loss for what to do.

Although Zhang Liang is not as thick-skinned as Guo Jia, it is better to skip this topic, "Would you like Feng Xiao to come too, but he came so late, I don't know why?"

"No need, Jia..."

Guo Jia was at a loss for words for a while, it was Zhang Liang who should have been embarrassed just now, why did he suddenly come back to him now.

To be precise, Guo Jia came to steal a drink. He did not expect to encounter such a scene. From Zhang Liang's slightly red ears, Guo Jia knew that he was not as calm as he appeared on the surface.

Anyway, he already knew about Zhang Liang's arrogant side, so there was no need to pursue it any further. Maybe Zhang Liang would figure out the reason for his coming here.

Guo Jia took it upon himself to find someone to make a mistake, but Zhang Liang still wouldn't expose him, and by the way, he could confuse his own intentions.

After coughing lightly, he opened his mouth and said: "Jia heard from Wen Zhicai that Shaofu was in a state of health and could not receive the sacrificial offerings, so he came here to take a look in person because he was not at ease. Accept it, I think it is because Zhicai is still around, to avoid Yinjia's mistake, let Zhicai be misunderstood, and only send to the Shaofu, not Zhicai."

Maybe there is indeed this part of the reason, but whether there are any mistakes in it, Zhang Liang can't expose Guo Jia.

Guo Jia, who thought he had won this round, waited for Zhang Liang to have nothing to say.

However, Zhang Liang just squinted at Guo Jia, who was evasive, and wanted to fool him with a ghost in his heart, "I heard that if Xun Wen is good at incense, as a friend, he will give gifts according to his preferences. Xiao is a bit perfunctory!"

The taste of white candles is not bad, these are just a formality before and after, and the rest of the ghosts will not use this to give gifts, because of family etiquette, Zhang Liang can't get it.

This was originally an idea that Guo Jia had in his mind to get rid of Zhang Liang when he was in a hurry to cover up that he went to drink and then wandered into the flower building, and was finally caught on the spot.

The sacrificial offerings follow the etiquette, and the gifts follow the preferences of the host family. Now that Zhang Liang is still alive, there seems to be nothing wrong with following his preferences.

But whenever Guo Jia thought about Zhang Liang's set of procedures just now, it seemed that eating was a big thing, and he felt a headache.

Guo Jia silently complained about Zhang Liang in his heart, obviously he was always honest in his heart.

At the same time, he hinted at Zhang Liang almost crazily, "Jia must be able to find a lot of novelties when he is away these few days. The Shaofu thinks that the sacrificial offerings are also rituals. We can reciprocate gifts. Does the Shaofu also send something to Jia?" .”

"Feng Xiao came here tonight just for wine?"

Before that, he really believed in Guo Jia's high-sounding reasons, and the courtesies were reciprocated according to his own preferences. Everyone knows what Guo Jia likes.

Sure enough, after Zhang Liang finished asking, Guo Jia's voice disappeared, as if he was wondering why Zhang Liang didn't follow the routine at all.

Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai can also be regarded as Zhang Liang's only two friends in this era, but they both died young.

"Silver is kept in one place all the time. Those who are in Fengxiao can do whatever they want, but drinking will hurt their health. If Fengxiao listens to Liang's advice, please spare your life if you don't believe in fate. Don't waste the painstaking efforts of those who care about you."

Zhicai, Guo Jia heard that Xi Zhicai was involved in Zhang Liang's other words this time.

Guo Jia is soft but not hard. Before he knew Xi Zhicai's situation, but all kinds of heresies that rejected others, now it is Guo Jia himself, and he can better understand Zhang Liang's painstaking efforts.

With Guo Jia's silence, Zhang Liang's embarrassment was resolved, and at the same time, Guo Jia, who had tried every means to exchange wine, returned empty-handed again.

It wasn't until Guo Jia walked back and fell asleep in a daze that Xi Zhi asked his dream to analyze the matter, and Guo Jia realized that he had lost again.

Obviously, as long as he catches Zhang Liang's embarrassing things and uses a little bit of tricks, everything is still there, and he overturns on Zhang Liang every time, which is very depressing.

On the second day, Zhang Liang went to the court meeting early in the morning, and while waiting, he could hear the discussions of some officials from time to time.

"Yuxi was dropped. I heard that His Majesty has lost his temper for several days. He should send someone to investigate the case today."

"The jade seal is for the imperial use, and the responsibility for this matter may still rest with that young man."

"The matter is of great importance, and His Majesty cannot be selfish and biased in this matter. Even if this case is found out, his high hat will not be worn for long."

Zhang Liang turned his eyes away from a group of officials who were discussing, and began to think about the whole story of this matter, who benefited from the transfer of Yuxi, and for what purpose.

Zhang Liang, who was still caught in his own thoughts, suddenly heard a summons, "Go to court!"

Zhang Liang followed the crowd into the hall, and after paying his respects, he looked up at Liu Xie's gaze, which contained many complicated emotions.

Cai Yong was on the left hand of Liu Xie. When Zhang Liang looked at him, he kept gesticulating with his cobra. Just when Zhang Liang wanted to investigate carefully, Liu Xie glanced over.

All the ministers were still discussing about Yuxi. It seemed that everyone's knives had been sharpened and pointed at Zhang Liang, with Liu Xie's dissatisfaction mixed in.

Generally speaking, Zhang Liang himself can be said to be a lonely minister, and he can only rely on the emperor, but after he wins over Lu Bu, Cao Cao flatters the emperor, making Liu Xie aware of the sense of crisis again, and the loss of Yuxi may not only mean some courtiers.

"The jade seal is where His Majesty's majesty lies. Now that it has been handed over to the imperial court for failure of responsibility, the people and princes of the world dare to trust His Majesty. I implore Your Majesty to issue an order to severely punish the servants of the Shaofu who are in charge of the imperial possessions."

Situ Wangyun also walked out and stood aside, showing that he was not selfish at all. After bowing solemnly to Liu Xie, he said righteously: "I also implore your majesty to order someone to investigate the case of Yuxi as soon as possible to prove that your majesty majesty."

The surroundings were still noisy, Zhang Liang seemed to be out of tune with these people, and only after these people had finished arguing, did he come out slowly and express his attitude.

"I petitioned to find out the case of Yuxi being dropped. This is a dereliction of duty. Your Majesty's punishment will be fully borne by me."

The leader of all criticism, the position of Shaofu is easy to come by, the officialdom is a gray area, but Liu Xie insists on putting a half black and half white chess piece in it, there should be someone behind Liu Xie, but I don't know it is Liu Hong or something else.

It seemed as if Zhang Liang had come to appease the anger, and when all the anger had exploded, it would be another matter to persuade them to fight.

"Fang Shaofu, since I have already agreed, I will wait for the facts of the case to be clarified, but Fang Shaofu's dereliction of duty must be punished first, but I don't know how long it will take?"

"Five days."

But Wang Yun immediately interjected, "What if we can't find out?"

"Punishment according to the law."

Chao Hui dispersed, Zhang Liang walked in front, Sima Fang fell a few steps behind, frowning unknowingly, looking at the figure in front of him.

This case is a dead end. He is not behind the scenes but Liu Xie. No one dares to question the emperor.

Under the Son of Heaven, their Sima family was the criminal's client, and Liu Xie could only be pushed out if Liu Xie was not questioned. This had to make Sima Fang anxious.

It doesn't matter if Zhang Liang has no relatives or reasons, but the Sima family is a felony for punishing the nine clans.

When there was a knock on the door, Guo Jia originally thought that Zhang Liang had come back, but he shouldn't be very busy recently, and after opening the door, he was a little surprised at Xun You's arrival.

"Gongda, do you know that Jia has recently come to reminisce about the past with the help of Fang Shaofu's residence?"

However, Xun You, who looked worried, could hear Guo Jia's jokes for a while, and asked Zhang Liang's whereabouts straight to the point, "Have you come back from Fang Shaofu?"

"I went out today, and after the court meeting, I never came back."

Guo Jia vaguely sensed that something big was about to happen, but for some reason, a small yellow gate would be involved.

"The Shaofu didn't go back to the house and was not in the Shaofu prison, so where would he go? Isn't he in a hurry for such a big matter?"

Xun You talked to himself for a while, he was good at observing words and expressions, but he had never understood Zhang Liang's thoughts after working together for so long.

There is no intention of power at all, but it is caught in the hands of the emperor who holds power. This is simply a target.

Xun You didn't want to care about these things, and he also had a way out, but a letter from Dongjun made him have to assist Zhang Liang from the side, as if this person seemed to be very important.

Although this place is secluded, Guo Jia still feels uncomfortable in the dark, "Go into the house and talk! He should be back in Fang Shaofu soon."

Following him into the mansion, Xun You happened to ask Guo Jia about something, how could Xun You suddenly speak for Zhang Liang.

Walking all the way in, Xun You also looked around the mansion. If one word could be used to describe it, it would be incorruptible. There were not a few servants, and there was no smell of fireworks. In the end, even the tea was made by Guo Jia.

After Zhang Liang came out, he went to Sima's mansion. Sima Yi must still have the jade carving tools in his hands at this time. He did not want to catch them directly this time, but did it symbolically.

In Liu Xie's view, with Zhang Liang's intelligence, it is impossible not to guess the twists and turns behind this, and who did it.

Zhang Liang's sudden rise to power before was to endanger the officials and break the balance of power among the Hanchens. However, after some incidents, Zhang Liangming's face turned slightly outward, which made people puzzled.

Sima Fang was ordered by Liu Xie, and Sima Yi and Si Yi were more than happy to see Bao Yuxi lost. Stealing all the arrangements behind Yuxi was completely effortless.

This is also the reason why He Jin, He Miao, etc. did not know about it, or they were also involved, and the only ones who were directly calculated were only a group of courtiers from the Shaofu Supervisor.

When Zhang Liang brought Cao Cao in to intervene in this game, some people should have realized the danger. The weak ministers and the strong emperor are puppets, and when the strong and the strong are facing each other, the merits are superior.

If it can't be broken or built, how can it be put to death and reborn? With the strength of the Han Dynasty itself, it can't suppress the separatist princes at all.
