listened to Ding Guangyou's words. Zhang Fan naturally knew what he meant. It seems that Ding Guangyou doesn't want to go around the bush like this. But when you think about it, too. After Ding Guangyou went through those things. He already had too many things in his mind to think about. Now play this game here with Zhang Fan. It's really not as big as he hoped. But it wasn't something he could handle. So. Ding Guangyou's request now is. Something to say. Don't beat around the bush.

And Zhang Fan naturally understood. However, he did not answer Ding Guangyou immediately. Instead, he picked up the flask in front of him. Pour yourself a glass of wine without hurrying. I didn't even look at Ding Guangyou. said: "Lord Ding." As the same party just said. You have been an official until now. It's been more than ten years. A matter of officialdom. Even if you're not proficient. But it's definitely not unfamiliar. Something. Naturally, it is good to have a straight talk. But something. It's too straightforward. Instead, it can be bad. ”

Listen to what Zhang Fan said. Such a posture is clearly threatening him. Ding Guangyou's face did not change color. He didn't care about those things anymore anyway. Merely. Zhang Fan said. Go and make him feel too. It looks like there's something involved. It wasn't as simple as he had thought. It's not that Ding Guangyou is afraid that this will bring him any trouble. Now he is not afraid of trouble. He just didn't want trouble to get in the way of what he was about to do. Even if that thing has happened until now. He didn't even decide whether to do it or not. But in case he says he wants to do that. He wanted to make sure that nothing or anyone stood in his way.

So. When he heard Zhang Fan say this. He had the idea of retreating. No. Nor should it be said to be a retreat. It's just that he doesn't want to get involved in this matter anymore.

"But." However. didn't wait for Ding Guangyou to make up his mind to leave here. Zhang Fan spoke again. "Lord Ding. It's a different story for you. I think you should know that too. I've come to you. Then I'll investigate your affairs clearly. Even those things are not recorded in the dossier. But you should want to get. I'm definitely looking for it all on my side.

"And come to think of it. What the hell is Lord Ding going to do when I come to you this time? Even if I don't understand it in my heart. But you should be able to guess it. ”

Heard Zhang Fan say these words. Ding Guangyou dispelled the idea of leaving. Sit back down. I poured myself a glass of wine.

Didn't speak, though. However, Ding Guangyou's action is already very obvious. He wanted to hear what Zhang Fan could say.

"Just as I said. Something about Lord Ding. Zhang knows everything clearly. It's really a human tragedy. Zhang Fan said. But don't get me wrong. You don't have to show this picture. Zhang Fan is not sympathizing with you. Or to put it another way. Even if Zhang really sympathizes with Lord Ding. Say it at this point. Presumably, Lord Ding won't believe it.

"Since you say it, Lord Ding doesn't believe it. Then Zhang doesn't have to spend his lips and tongue anymore. Let's talk about something practical. ”

Really. Heard Zhang Fan say this. The strange look on Ding Guangyou's face disappeared. He drank a glass of wine with his head down. It seems to be thinking about something. I didn't speak for a long time. Until the glass of wine in his hand was cleaned by him in such small sips. That's when he looked up. looked at Zhang Fan and asked, "So." Please also speak up. What do you want to say when you come to the next official? ”

"It's actually very simple." Zhang Fan saw Ding Guangyou like this. A smile appeared on his face. Said. "Let's not talk about feelings. Nor does it talk about sympathy. Not to mention the others who don't. Let's just talk about mutual use.

"That's it. Wouldn't it be a lot easier? I need help with some things. And Lord Ding also seems to need me to help with some things. We can only say that we use each other. Of course. Mr. Ding and I are not old friends. You and I don't know each other. Lord Ding's business for me. You may have heard of it. But I haven't seen it with my own eyes. I don't think I'm gullible; And I'm right to Lord Ding. Even if I know about Lord Ding. But what about a person exactly. It's not going to be written explicitly on the dossier. So. Between the two of us. It can be said that it is evenly matched. ”

"What Master Zhang said is true." Ding Guangyou nodded with a serious face. Said. "To know what a person is really like. It's not just a matter of looking at the black and white letters. ”

"So here it goes. It's easy for us to talk to each other. Zhang Fan also nodded. Said. "After all, we didn't know each other before. There's no need to worry about anything when you talk. ”

"Not bad." Ding Guangyou nodded again. Said. "So. Case. Zhang Daren is in a high position. Time is also precious. In the opinion of the following officials. Let's not be verbose. What the hell does Master Zhang want to say? Please speak up. Otherwise, the lower officials will not understand. If it breaks Lord Zhang's affairs, it's not good.

"And. What Mr. Zhang just said. The two of us also use each other. But Xia Guan really didn't know. There is something else that Master Zhang can't do. It needs to be used in the place of the lower officials. ”

"Lord Ding. You'd be wrong. Zhang Fan's complexion did not change. Said. Although there is something wrong with that. But it's still the same sentence. 'Hades, good see. It's hard to get rid of the little ghosts'. That's not the case with me today. Whether it's Hades or a little ghost, it's very difficult. What happened to me here in Sichuan. I don't think I need to say more. Master Ding also understood. That's what I need help with Master Ding. ”

"This matter ......" Listening to Zhang Fan, he finally said what he was thinking. Ding Guangyou was not surprised. After all, Zhang Fan came to him for this matter. Maybe he thought about it too. Now Zhang Fan admits it. He didn't need to be surprised. "Don't hide it from Lord Zhang. Xia Guan also thought about this matter. Xia Guan didn't know why Lord Zhang took a fancy to Xia Guan to solve this matter. But it doesn't matter anymore. Xia Guan just wanted to know. How does Master Zhang plan to deal with them? ”

"Them. It's our common enemy. Zhang Fan said. Although I want to deal with them. They hadn't figured out what they were going to do with them. ”

"It's hard to do. Master Zhang wants to ......" although Zhang Fan's words were so ambiguous. But today's Ding Guangyou. The position he was in. I always take things for granted in the direction I have considered. So Zhang Fan is saying so now. He immediately thought of a possibility. "Nope. I can't say yes to that. Although they ...... But I ...... I can't get them all to answer for this. ”

Listen to what Ding Guangyou said. Zhang Fan was a little surprised. What he just said. The purpose is to try to see what Ding Guangyou's so-called bottom line of revenge is. Originally, in Zhang Fan's view. Even Ding Guangyou didn't have the determination to kill people. But it won't be too soft-hearted. After all, what he went through. He lost two loved ones. One of them is his beloved wife for ten years. And. Although he also has some responsibilities in it. But after all, that side still accounts for most of the fault.

Originally, Zhang Fan thought that he would say this. Even Ding Guangyou won't agree right away. But you should never say it right away. In the plot that Zhang Fan expected. Ding Guangyou should be hesitant about this. When he finally made his decision. Zhang Fan was able to identify. Do you want to find Ding Guangyou to do this matter.

But now. What Zhang Fan didn't expect was. He's just brought it up. Ding Guangyou vetoed it.

"Lord Ding, what's wrong?" Zhang Fan looked puzzled. Asked. "I'm not going to do anything terrible. I didn't think about killing them all. Although they did sin against me. But I, Zhang Fan, are not so flawed that they must be reported to such an extent. Up to the most. It's just a loss of office. I can't hurt their lives.

"What's more. Didn't they have a grudge against Lord Ding? Or rather. The hatred that Lord Ding carried. But it's not as good as those false official titles. ”

"Nope. That's not how it is. Ding Guangyou shook his head. Said. "Although I do resent them for doing something wrong. But those things. I'm also responsible. But I'm not beating myself up. But I didn't get so mad that I wanted to implicate thousands of people in Sichuan because of myself. He had a very high opinion of himself. Look down on people. But he was also a good officer. It can bring a good life to the people of Sichuan. He was appointed governor of Sichuan for only two years. But for the past two years. I'm also seeing the changes here. He is here to be the governor. For Sichuan. It's a good thing. I can't ruin it just because of my own business. ”

"But. Lord Ding. What about your hatred. Listen to what Ding Guangyou said. Zhang Fan sighed a little in his heart. But he didn't show it. It's still the same tone as before. Said. "It's hard to say. Lord Ding's blood feud. That's it. Besides. Even if he had saved me. He is not the only good official in this world. How could Lord Ding think. The person who succeeds him must be a bad person. ”

"Indeed." Ding Guangyou said. "But. Mr. Zhang may not be sure. The person who succeeds him must be a good person. But if you don't move him. Then he had saved me. At least what I see now. He's a good officer. Lower officials. Reluctant to take that risk.

"If Lord Zhang is looking for the next official for this matter. Then I have to forgive the officials for being rude. ”

Let's talk about it. Ding Guangyou stood up. Turn around and leave.

"Lord Ding, please stay. Zhang still has something to say. Zhang Fan spoke. stopped Ding Guangyou, who was about to leave.
