The more he came into contact with Fan Hongdao, the more Shen Shixing felt that Fan Hongdao had a strong mysticism. Pen ร fun ร Pavilion www. ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ ใ info He didn't want to ask Fan Hongdao why he knew that there were stones under the imperial tomb, even if he was terrifying, he could still be shocked by the original prediction of Zhang Siwei's death?
There are often plots such as ghosts and gods dreaming in the romance of words, and it turns out that Shen Shoufu scoffs at this. But after getting to know Fan Hongdao, Shen Shoufu felt that there were no wonders in the world, and maybe there would really be such a thing.
And Fan Hongdao's cleverness lies in the fact that he will not show this mystery everywhere, and he will not let this mystery be known to everyone. Fan Hongdao only shows in front of a limited number of key figures, and it is enough to mainly shock the key figures.
Shen Shoufu thought about it, made a look of indifference and said, "There are stones under the underground palace, this is not necessarily a bad omen." โ
Fan Hongdao replied: "It doesn't matter if it's a bad omen or not, but it's always an abnormal thing, and in the eyes of those who have a heart, it's okay to interpret it as a bad omen."
As one of the decision-makers in choosing a location, if you are caught off guard and someone catches you attacked, you will inevitably suffer a big loss. After all, it's easier to do things than bad things, and it's easier to think about bad things than to do things. โ
Shen Shoufu said again: "According to you, this matter is already a dead end, and it can't be resolved in advance?" The only way is to wait for the incident to happen and then try to distinguish it?"
As long as the construction of the imperial tomb begins, the construction of the underground palace will inevitably dig up stones. Whether Shen Shoufu knew it in advance or not, it would definitely cause a storm at that time.
And what's worse is that even if you know it in advance, it's not easy to remedy. It is where the imperial mausoleum will be built in the future, not Shen Shixing's own vegetable garden, and if he wants to go to the imperial mausoleum to secretly do something, he will be easily charged with ill-intentioned and rebellious crimes.
"Of course there is a way. Fan Hongdao said, and then smiled without saying a word,
Shen Shoufu frowned and said, "You don't want to say it?"
Fan Hongdao got up and said, "It's getting late today, so I'm going to say goodbye." โ
Why do you want to say goodbye when you are talking? Shen Shixing was slightly surprised, and then reacted, this is in exchange for benefits.
With Shen Shixing's concept, he really can't appreciate people like Fan Hongdao, and he can't even get close to Fan Hongdao. He acknowledges Fan Hongdao's talent, but he doesn't like Fan Hongdao's character.
Although he was mentally prepared not to compete with Fan Hongdao in advance, at this time Shen Shoufu couldn't help but say: "How can you be tricky and forget the foundation of loyalty!"
Fan Hongdao sighed: "In these years, the world is becoming less and less popular, since Chenghua Hongzhi, the simple and heavy atmosphere is gone, and now it has become even worse, loyal and honest gentlemen are not popular, and people are good and are bullied." So when honest people suffer too much, I don't want to give people the impression that they are easy to talk to. โ
Shen Shoufu was stunned, he originally thought that Fan Hongdao was the kind of young and frivolous who didn't know the world, and he was bold when he got some talent by chance. But I didn't expect that Fan Hongdao, a young man, was not ignorant of the world, but that he had seen the world so thoroughly.
But I can't help but admit that what Fan Hongdao said is reasonable, from the temple to Shilin, there is indeed an impetuous and scathing atmosphere.
Suddenly, Shen Shoufu wanted to hear Fan Hongdao's "nonsense", not to discuss such a major event as the imperial mausoleum, but to talk about some small topics first, such as commenting on the ministers of the imperial court.
"How much do you know about the princes of the temple?" asked Shen Shixing quietly.
Fan Hongdao was about to leave, but when he heard the old man Shoufu ask him without a beginning or a tail, he was very surprised for a while, and he couldn't understand why the stable old Shoufu suddenly jumped so much.
Fan Hongdao replied cautiously: "I know a little." โ
Shen Shoufu asked, "What do you think, what do you think of Li Zhi, Jiang Dongzhi, Yang Keli and others?"
Fan Hongdao replied disdainfully: "Mu monkey and crown, dry bones in the mound, although it can be rampant for a while due to fate, but it will definitely not last long, and it will soon be blown away by the wind and rain." โ
This answer was not expected by Shen Shixing, but he was slightly surprised by Fan Hongdao's affirmative tone. He then asked, "How is the second assistant Xu Guo?"
Fan Hongdao replied without interest: "There is no opinion at all, a mediocre person, there is nothing worth talking about." โ
Shen Shixing was noncommittal, and continued to ask, "How is Wang Taicang?"
Wang Taicang is the old Wang Xijue, and according to the original historical progress, he will also be the first assistant in the future. This person is not very good to evaluate, Fan Hongdao thought about it and replied slightly disparagemently: "The person who can only fool things, when he can't fool around, that's when he leaves." โ
Shen Shixing thought for a while, and then asked casually: "How is Wu Zongxian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate?"
Fan Hongdao said without thinking: "Although he made meritorious contributions in the early years, it is a pity that the late festival is not guaranteed, and now Wu Zongxian is afraid that there is only the word drill camp left in his mind, and there is no discipline at all." To go further, he can throw himself at anyone. โ
"How is Shen Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites?" Shen Shoufu asked one by one, and asked Shen Li, who was very famous in the imperial court.
Anyone who is familiar with history knows that there was a Donglin Party at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and Shen Li was the leader of the Donglin Party in its embryonic period, and the cusp of the party struggle in the middle of Wanli. The famous Donglin Sanjun Gu Xiancheng, Zhao Nanxing, and Zou Yuanbiao are all small characters in front of Shen Li.
Fan Hongdao pondered for a moment and decisively commented: "Shen Li, this person, is known as Geng Jieqing, and he is used to selling his reputation and reputation. What is even more worrying is that if the court has no peace in the future, the source will be this person. โ
Shen Shixing was very surprised by this evaluation, because Shen Li was a well-known righteous gentleman in the imperial court, and his reputation was very loud, and Fan Hongdao even used a derogatory tone to evaluate Shen Li.
So Shen Shoufu asked again: "In your eyes, Shen Shangshu is such a person?"
Fan Hongdao said affirmatively: "Although I am not talented in the next place, I am confident that I will not be wrong!"
Shen Shixing asked again, "Have you said these words to others?"
Fan Hongdao replied: "You only told the boss in the next place, if the boss spreads it, he will never admit it." โ
Shen Shixing knew very well that if he preached Fan Hongdao to others, then others would have to believe it. His dazzling status is here, no matter what he says, others will think that it is his own meaning, and will only wonder what he thinks.
I have to say that this is indeed where Fan Hongdao is smart. That's why he tried his best to rub the light of the Shen Mansion, but he didn't bother to find another mountain that was less difficult to make friends.
Speaking of this, Shen Shoufu finally felt that although he didn't like Fan Hongdao, it was still necessary to keep in touch with Fan Hongdao.
In Vanity Fair, there are too many things like that. There are many examples of people who don't like each other but have to cooperate, but most of these compromises happen to two people who are equal to each other.
For example, Shen Shoufu does not appreciate Wang Xijue in the same cabinet, but he still deliberately befriended Wang Xijue for the sake of the overall situation. But the previous Shen Shoufu would never have imagined that he would have such a compromise with a small prisoner.
