Today's imperial court. Zhang Juzheng sat on the top spot. There is no need to say about status. And the only one who can compete with Zhang Juzheng a little. There is only Ge Shouli. It's just that Ge Shouli doesn't rely on those identities and powers. It's his personality charm that makes people like to talk to him so much.

Just like it is now. It's still early. It was not yet the time of the early dynasty. The ministers were waiting outside the noon gate. Gather in twos and threes to talk about something. Merely. There are two places where there are a little more people than the others. One is naturally Zhang Juzheng. There are many ministers by his side. All with smiles on their faces. is talking to Zhang Juzheng. One is Ge Shouli's side. It also gathered a lot of people. But everyone's face is different. Some are smiling. And some have serious expressions.

Zhang Fan saw such a scene. I have some thoughts in my mind. But there was nothing on the surface. After he dismounted. The footsteps only stopped slightly. walked straight to Zhang Juzheng's side. It's just that. The road he was walking also happened to pass by Ge Shouli's side.

When Zhang Fan walked to Zhang Juzheng's side. The two parties that gathered the most people immediately showed different manifestations. When he passed by Ge Shouli's side. He didn't bother to hear what they were saying. It's just like the usual greetings. Nodding. Just say a word or two of hello. And it's not just Ge Shouli. Those people beside Ge Shouli also nodded to Zhang Fan.

This can be regarded as the credit of Ge Shouli. To know. Zhang Fan's ascension was too smooth. It makes people feel that this young man is just lucky. Although it is also talented. But his talent has not yet been realized. Before he was recognized by others, he was already in such a high position. The old people who have been watching for decades in the DPRK and China cannot reach Zhang Fan's current height. This is naturally unpleasant. So jointly. Many people in the court are very unfriendly to Zhang Fan.

And now. These people gathered around Ge Shouli. This is especially true. After all, it is like like gathering. Together. The people around Ge Shouli. Most of them are characters like Ge Shouli. Although they didn't do as well as Ge Shouli. But it's definitely not bad. And especially these people. For people like Zhang Fan. That's even more true.

And now. It's also because of Ge Shouli. These people's views on Zhang Fan have also changed. Although Zhang Fan's journey as an official is indeed very smooth. But at least he is very righteous as an official. This point before. It is likely that only Ge Shouli knows best. Even Zhang Juzheng. They don't necessarily have this kind of awareness.

Now. With the "help" of Ge Shouli. These people are also aware of this. It's not like it used to be. Even if he is face-to-face with Zhang Fan, it is like a stranger. Ignore it at all. He even deliberately turned his head.

Although Zhang Fan didn't intend to thank Ge Shouli for anything at this point. Even he didn't care too much about these things. But he would rather like to see that.

In a word. This way. Zhang Fan walked past them. Pleasant greetings to each other. Zhang Fan continued to walk forward. And the same is true of those who gathered around Ge Shouli. What to say or continue. It's the same as before.

And to Zhang Juzheng's side. The situation is very different. Those who gathered around Zhang Juzheng and said something. Actually, this is not a conversation at all. Most of these people have smiles on their faces. It's just that the smile is uncomfortable. It's definitely not what nature seems. It's something that can be pretended. Moreover. When Zhang Fan walked there. I also heard some of what they were saying. It's really not very comfortable. It's just flattery.

Fortunately. Zhang Fan is still relieved. After all, Zhang Juzheng, who was surrounded in the middle. Listening to these can even be said to be marginal flattery. And be able to maintain the true nature. Zhang Juzheng had a smile on his face. But it was just plain. And there's nothing smug about it. There is even some reluctance to cope.

See these. Zhang Fan's heart didn't know how. All of a sudden, my mood was much better. It seems to be going through those things. There was some rift between him and Zhang Juzheng. But there was no break between him and Zhang Juzheng. Isn't it just that they are reconciled because of the same philosophy now? And now. Zhang Fan saw that Zhang Ju was dealing with these people who patted him on the back. But it's a plain look. Even faintly. also showed that it was obvious that he was coping. Zhang Fan's heart was naturally happy.

And now. The difference between the group of people gathered here and the group of people gathered over there became apparent.

When Zhang Fan walked over. It happened to be seen by Zhang Juzheng. I don't know if I was really happy to see Zhang Fan. Or is Zhang Juzheng also tired of the words and deeds of these people around him. took the initiative to greet Zhang Fan: "Yuande." You're here. ”

Heard Zhang Juzheng's words. The people around him also turned their heads at the sound. I saw Zhang Fan. But these people don't know how. Is there a ghost in my heart or something else? After seeing Zhang Fan. Naturally, I greeted him with a smiling face. But then. These people all showed that they had something else going on. Or they don't want to disturb the conversation between Zhang Fan and Zhang Juzheng. And found a reason to leave. And. The reasons these people come up with are bizarre. There's everything. There are even some reasons that make people want to laugh at all.

Maybe it's the large number of people here. Many people come up with the same reasons. Even if it is clear that he wants to leave. But it is clear that the same reasons are not to be repeated repeatedly. Some people say they have friends over there. Others say they are not feeling well. Moreover. It's so cool. There was not a hint of hot morning. He waved his sleeves. I wiped the beads of sweat that didn't exist on my face. Say it's too hot. It's too hot for so many people to get together. And with a smiling face, he turned to leave.

See these people like this. It's not just Zhang Fan. Even Zhang Juzheng's eyes showed a smile.

Merely. Zhang Fan's smile didn't last long before it faded. The reason is simple. Again, that's the same sentence. Birds of a feather flock together. Together. The people on Ge Shouli's side. Although not all of them are as honest and honest as Ge Shouli. Flawless. But at least they're doing a good job.

And the people on Zhang Juzheng's side. But they all have other ideas in their hearts. A lot of people are here. It is obvious that he is looking at Zhang Juzheng in a high position. I want to him.

Let's talk about it. Why is there such a person around Zhang Juzheng? After all, it's not his own problem.

If it is Zhang Juzheng, he will also lead by example. Be unbiased and unbiased. Even if it's a small gesture. Think carefully. People with that kind of mind would never dare to come around. Other words. The reason why these people with strange thoughts dare to approach Zhang Juzheng. Or because of Zhang Juzheng himself. Otherwise. How could there be no such person in Ge Shouli's place? Ge Shouli may be upright. But even in the face of corrupt officials. Ge Shouli never made any radical words and deeds. I won't scold. I don't know how to fight.

And that's it. There is still no such person to go to Ge Shouli's side.

But Zhang Juzheng's side is different. There were a lot of people. The reason is what Zhang Juzheng did in the previous few things. Let these people see. It turned out that Zhang Juzheng, who had always been good, also did this. It's also a "fellow believer". And now. Zhang Juzheng stood at the highest point of civil officials. Let these people. Before, these were just trying to get as much out of it as possible. It's better to be able to get promoted again. But for that position, it's basically hopeless. My heart is burning again.

Since Zhang Juzheng. So many small gestures like this. The hands and feet are not clean. also mixed with a eunuch. Even this can go up. Then they are not unavoidable.

So. These people are now so desperate to get close to Zhang Juzheng. And. Even if you can't sit in a position as high as Zhang Juzheng in the future. may also be able to rely on Zhang Juzheng. Maybe I'll be able to move up a little bit.

So. Zhang Fan saw such a scene at this time.

And those people. saw Zhang Fan's arrival. Naturally, there is a need to panic. After all. Zhang Fan's personality and work. For the way of officials. It's all for all to see. Now it is under the influence of Ge Shouli that the world understands it even more. Plus. What's more. He's a brocade guard. What does Jinyiwei do? Specialized in supervising ministers. And which of these people has nothing to do with them? If Zhang Fan wants to. There is no need to report anything at all. Just find a reason to arrest them.

In that case. No one would say anything.

I thought that this would happen to me. Where can these people stay here? If it weren't for this, it would have to happen. I'm afraid they definitely want to stay away from Zhang Fan. It's better to be in a place where you can't even see.

This is the case. The decision between the two parties. This made Zhang Fan think about it.

And Zhang Juzheng is not stupid. The eyesight is also very good. This is the case. Coupled with the change in the expression on Zhang Fan's face. How could he not see it?

But. See it at the same time. He already understood what Zhang Fan was thinking. But about this. Zhang Juzheng was helpless. I can't do anything at all. can only show a wry smile. Who is to blame for all this? Isn't he to blame?

"Teacher." I don't know what Zhang Juzheng thinks. Zhang Fan came to him. Say hello to him.
