Chapter 718: Tell the Truth
"This ...... Master Taifu. Don't blame the subordinate for asking many times. It's just that it's really curious. I don't know if Master Taifu can tell me one or two. It is also good to solve the doubts in the hearts of the lower officials. "The man who questioned at the beginning. Seeing Zhang Fan frowning. But I don't want to say much. I couldn't help but ask.
Let's talk about it. It's really boring. After all. Officials who can stand here. At the very least, he is also a third-rank official of the imperial court. And it's also a Beijing official. It is also possible to enter the palace every morning. Officials who participated in the early dynasties. As such an officer. Don't talk about every day. But it's also very busy. Of course. Naturally, they also have free time. In his spare time. Not to mention women. Even these men. I also gossip occasionally. Say something that doesn't concern you, etc.
Merely. These people are even more leisure. I won't have the leisure to ask someone else's subordinates. Other words. The question this person is asking. It's a little too brainless. It can only be said that he is a meritorious person. But it was not well thought out. The question is so straightforward. Now Zhang Fan doesn't need to check it at all. It's all understood. Feng Bao had already begun to have doubts about the fact that he had sent Liang Chao. And through a few words from this person. Zhang Fan found more than that.
This person would ask. Illustrate a little. Feng Bao had great doubts about Zhang Fan's intention to let Liang Chao go out. That's why these people came here to find out the news. But about this. Zhang Fan also had some things in his heart that he couldn't understand. This time, Feng Bao's style of action was different from the past. If it was before. Not to mention at this sensitive time when the atmosphere is extremely tense. Even if it's not very important. If Feng Bao heard something. I don't bother to ask that much. Or send someone to find out what is true or whatever. It's just for people to check it out.
But this time. The situation is very different. Since Feng Bao sent these people. Asked such a brainless question. Then obviously. There was no movement on Feng Bao's side at all.
This naturally made Zhang Fan very curious. After all, the current Feng Bao is bent on bringing down Zhang Siwei. And judging from his series of actions. It's also very "positive". But now. He didn't send someone out to investigate. It's about letting people come here to find out what is true and false. It's really against his previous style.
Of course. Nor will Feng Bao be sent here to release a smoke screen. made Zhang Fan feel that he hadn't sent anyone out yet. First of all, I have to come to him to find out the truth. However, this idea didn't exist in Zhang Fan's mind for long before he threw it away. Feng Bao wouldn't be that stupid. If so. It's not tantamount to reminding Zhang Fan. Did he already have doubts about it?
In that case. Whether Zhang Fan believes it or not. He sent someone to help Liang Chao. The possibility of blocking Feng Bao's people is very high. Feng Bao wouldn't be that stupid.
Zhang Fan's mind turned. But I didn't come up with any good explanation. But nowadays. It's not the time to think about that yet. And. Feng Bao did this. It is undoubtedly a good thing for Zhang Fan. Since Feng Bao wants to play with such a complicated thing. Zhang Fan will naturally be fully accompanied. It's best to be able to go around a few more times. Let him get dizzy.
Come to think of it. Zhang Fan already knew what to say. He looked up at the sky. I found that it was still some time before the drum of the corner tower sounded. It's made up.
face. Not only did the sad look of that face not change. On the contrary, it is more profound. It looks like it's hard to speak. Hesitant for a long time. That's when he said, "Originally." There is a way. The ugliness of the family should not be publicized. I really don't want to talk about it. It's just actually. I'm struggling myself. Let him go out is also a last resort. Yesterday I didn't sleep well all night because of this. Now a few adults have asked. Then I'll talk to a few people. Now that this thing has come out. I don't want to ask for any good way to change it. I just hope to see if a few of you can find a way to relieve the worries in my heart. ”
"Lord Fu is polite. But it doesn't hurt to say that. If there is any way for the lower officials and the others. It should be a confession. Another said.
And. A few of the rest. The look in his eyes is not ordinary sparkle. Apparently. These people were originally from Feng Bao's side. Or maybe they guessed something for themselves. Now I hear Zhang Fan's ambiguous words. In an instant, I just wanted to be crooked. I thought I had found some secret envoy. It's going to be used by Feng Bao.
Merely. These people are really limited in intelligence. They don't want to think about it either. If it was as simple as they thought. Feng Bao won't be so bothered.
And Zhang Juzheng, who heard Zhang Fan say this. At first, I was a little confused. I don't know what Zhang Fan plans to do. But the next moment, he figured out Zhang Fan's plan. This time. Zhang Ju couldn't hold back and didn't come up with it. Although he didn't know what Zhang Fan planned to do. However, these people in front of them are destined to return in vain.
"This matter has to start with that Liang Chao." Zhang Fan said. "I said it earlier. His family has been working in the brocade guard for generations. His father also died for the sake of the imperial court. He is a son who inherits his father's business. This Liang Chao is also doing things very well. And I can complete the tasks I have been told. That's why I value him very much. He was promoted to a thousand households.
"He's a little younger than me, though. But it's not too big. Now it's also the age of getting married. I heard that his mother is also worried about this matter now. So that day I asked him if he wanted to. I'm going to tell him a family affair. Although the other party is not an official eunuch. But it also has some origins. If only he could get married. It will also be very helpful to him in the future. ”
"Master Taifu really cares about his subordinates. So worry about your subordinates. One of them took advantage of the situation and said. However, Xia Guan listened to Taifu's tone. Obviously, this Liang Chao didn't agree. This is a bit too unscrupulous. ”
"That's right. When I heard him say he didn't want to. I was amazed. But I'm also a little curious. That's a great thing. What would he not want to do? Zhang Fan said. But after I heard his reasoning. I was relieved. Really. Love in this world is very difficult. I've been married for a while. But I still can't figure out these things. Liang Chao said that he already had a favorite woman. If only that were the case. I'm not the kind of person who goes back and forces my subordinates for something like this. Opposite. I'm still happy for him. After all, it's more than a blind date. If only he could find a woman he loved. It's also a beautiful thing. It's just that when I asked who the other person was. He also doesn't say it.
"That's weird to me. If you don't say this kind of thing. There are only two possibilities. Either the other party is a family member who does not want to. Either that's the right door. But he shook his head. I asked again and again. He just said it. It turned out that the other party was a woman in a green house. ”
"This ......" Several people heard Zhang Fan's words. I couldn't help but look at each other. I don't know if I was surprised by what Zhang Fan said about the Qinglou woman. I'm still wondering how Zhang Fan talked about this matter in a good manner.
But Zhang Fan looked like he didn't know anything. Go on. "If you want to talk about the Qinglou woman. I don't think so. Not to mention the woman he was talking about. Although he is in the green building. But it's still a clear man. But she's in the dust after all. It's okay to say that you are redeemed and become a concubine. But this Liang Chao also has no wife. plus his deep affection for the woman. Obviously, he wants to marry home and be a wife. Frankly. I don't bother to ask about it. But this is really unacceptable. ”
"This ......" those people didn't know what to say now.
"But he's also a good talker. I guess it moved me. Zhang Fan had an expression that he didn't see them at all. Go on. "And. He had other things he wanted me to help with. He actually asked me to help him cheat on his mother. said that the woman was from a serious family. You say. It's all about it.
"In the end, I couldn't do anything. And Liang Chao is really useful under me. I thought about it. This kind of thing doesn't waste me anything. It's just two words. And so it goes. You can also get back a loyal subordinate. This kind of business is just too cost-effective. I have no reason to refuse.
So I helped him put on a play in front of his mother. Fortunately, his mother has a lot of trust in the court. In addition, it was his son's Shangguan who came forward. She said yes right away. So. That's what makes this a good thing.
"It's just not enough. His mother insisted on seeing her in-laws. I can't. I had to give him an idea. Let him take the woman out for a few days. said that he was going to see his future father-in-law. Let them stay outside a little longer.
"Ladies and gentlemen. Tell me about it. What is going on? "After that. Zhang Fan's brows furrowed even deeper.
“……”
Those people can't say a word now. Look at me. I'll look at you. There was a sigh at the end. Some are pretending to have something to do. They all found a reason to step aside.
And Zhang Juzheng, who watched the whole process on the side, always looked smiling. It's just actually. He was already smiling in his heart. He really didn't expect it. Zhang Fan would actually make up such a story to fool these people.
Merely. What Zhang Juzheng didn't know was. Some of what Zhang Fan said was false. But it's mostly true.
Just as the two looked at each other and smiled. The drums of the noon gate tower sounded.
