Chapter 966: God forbid
There are so-called black sheep. Of course. That sounds a little too urbane. It makes people feel that it is too gentle for those who let the whole group suffer for personal reasons. Thereupon. And so came the more ugly words. It's called "a grain of rat." Broken pot of soup". Of course. Some places are not called rats. But now is not the time to discuss such issues.
Zhang Fan is looking for such a person now. It's just that his intentions are not as sinister as he thought. He is simply going to use this man. Just make yourself look a little more hateful. As for what heinous things you really want to do. Not yet. It's just a very ordinary need.
And this. It is also something that Zhang Fan has been preparing for a long time. When the capital was not on the road. He had already begun to prepare. Of course. If you still want to ask why Zhang Fan dares to be so sure. There must be such a person here. The truth is simple. Because everywhere there will be disagreements. Everywhere there will be people with different hearts. This is not that Zhang Fan wants to be alarmist. That's what it was meant to be. Especially. The people he's targeting. It is still a special group of officials of the imperial court. This is even more true than that. There's no need to think about it or investigate at all. You can be sure of it. That's definitely the way it is.
In a word. Other words. Zhang Fan came here to find a discord. It is not possible to "share the same hatred" with those local officials. Even now, he doesn't dare to show it publicly because of Zeng Shengwu's coercion. But Zhang Fan came to the door. It is easy for him to obey Zhang Fan's orders.
Generally speaking. Such people. They are all people who have their own problems. Of course. It is not excluded that some people have not committed anything. It's just that it's easier to get nervous. Or the kind of person who has a thief's heart but no courage. But it doesn't matter which of these people. For Zhang Fan, it is not a problem. As long as the name of Jinyiwei comes out. More than sixty percent of this person is likely to give in. So come one. Zhang Fan will be able to control the emotions of those people.
Zhang Fan did so. It's not that you have to get along with Zeng Shengwu. It's just about creating an atmosphere. And for the person who was taken a fancy to by Zhang Fan. This may be a blessing. But it could also be a tragedy. If this person hasn't done anything. Or just do something that isn't too much. Zhang Fan will naturally give him a little compensation. Even. Maybe he'll get a better taste of it. But if this person has really done something that makes the following complain. I'm sorry about that.
In a word. That's the way it is.
And Zhang Fan has just ordered to go over. The people from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't wait. Here, Wang Meng and Liang Chao just walked away. So they chose two people to come. One of them is just the identity of the head of the military department. Zhang Fan didn't care too much about him. And the other person. But it's Zhang Fan's old acquaintance. When Zhang Fan was sent by Longqing to Mobei to collect medicinal materials. He was with Zhang Fan. It was Wang Xilie, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites.
Since it's an old acquaintance. This Wang Xilie naturally won't be too polite. The door has just opened. He spoke: "Master Zhang." Now we are also in Chengdu. You look at things. Didn't you do it earlier? ”
"What does Lord Wang mean." Zhang Fan didn't understand what he meant. It's just that he probably knows better than anyone else in his heart.
"Your Excellency." Wang Xilie knew that Zhang Fan was pretending to be confused. But this kind of thing. He didn't have the means to say it explicitly. can only patiently explain for Zhang Fan. "We've come this far. Didn't I come here to find out whether this conquest of the servants was a great victory or something else? If this matter can be found out sooner. We can go back sooner. ”
"I know what Lord Wang means." Zhang Fan nodded. Said. "But it doesn't always go this way. Besides. I can guess a little bit about why Lord Wang wanted to go back sooner. But. It's November. We've been here for more than a month. Wouldn't it take so long to go back? ”
"No, no, no. That's not right. "Speaking of which. Wang Xilie shook his head. Said. "It's not necessarily what the adults say. There's something hidden in it. After all. That's Liu Xian. In the past, whether he was marching and fighting, or reporting military information. All these things are obvious to all. To win is to win. Defeat is defeat. Five people died. It would never be said that there were three dead and two wounded. These things don't have to be considered at all.
Now the Queen Mother has doubts about this. But forgive me for daring. That's because the Queen Mother didn't know General Liu. If the Queen Mother knew a little about him. I don't need to be here anymore. ”
"What does Lord Wang mean ......"
"That's right." Wang Xilie continued. "I don't need to look into this matter at all. Even. I don't think even adults can announce anything now. Then the reward of the court will be distributed. Nothing will happen then. Even adults don't feel at ease about this. I want to check. I can't find anything out of it. Since both horizontal and vertical are the same. So why bother making so many detours? It's good to save trouble.
"It's really November. But we came because there were so many things with us. It will take more than a month. When the time comes, let's travel lightly. It won't take half a month to go back. In this way. We can all rush back for the New Year. Why waste all your time here? ”
"Hmm. Lord Wang is right. Zhang Fan looked thoughtful. Said. "This time. Actually, I don't quite know what the Queen Mother means. After the Queen Mother let me come. I found someone to transfer General Liu's file and read it. Indeed, it is as the adults say. General Liu's personality. It's really respectable. No matter what kind of style you have on weekdays. It's better to start a war. It's all the same. It's really rare.
"Only. After all, this matter was explained by the Queen Mother. Let's say we don't do anything. I can't make any sense of this. Or...... Or Lord Wang. Look at it. Tomorrow I will go to see Governor Zeng. There is also General Liu. Then talk to them. When the time comes, the two adults will have to go together. After all, the situation along the way. I guess both of them have seen it too. There is no way to do it. When the time comes, I will ask you to talk about it.
"After that. This official face. No matter what, it's always okay to say nothing and do nothing. I mean. When the time comes, let's just find a few places to see. That's it. And then. Send the reward as soon as possible. We can go back sooner. Maybe. I can spare a few more days. You can see more. After all, the scenery here is also famous all over the world. This is probably the chance to come here once in a lifetime. Don't miss it. ”
"Since the adults have said it here. That's good, of course. Wang Xilie saw that Zhang Fan was not objecting. Naturally, it is a pleasure. After all. Zhang Fan's words. Anyway. It all made him sound very comfortable. Not to mention. He was also busy for a long time. Of course, it would be nice to have such a break.
And it's not just Wang Xilie. Even the head of the military department who came over next to him nodded along the way. Apparently he agreed, too.
"Only. My lord. It's good to do that. But there's still a little bit of trouble. Wang Xilie suddenly changed his words. Said.
"What do you mean, Lord Wang?" Zhang Fan heard him say this. It's also a puzzle. After all, what he said just now could be regarded as what Wang Xilie wanted to hear the most. Why does he still say that he is not satisfied?
"This ......" Wang Xilie looked embarrassed. In the end, I decided to say. "Your Excellency. Here's the thing. This has been a reflection of mine. I kind of have some friendship with him. Not too much, though. But it's also familiar. This man is a little stubborn. But he is not the kind of person who is unreasonable. Also all-nighters officialdom things. So let's go tomorrow. It still makes sense to talk to him.
"But...... But...... Then Liu Xian is different. Adults understand, too. This is a man who has been fighting for many years. originally had such a temper. What's more, Liu Xian is almost sixty years old now. This temper is even more outlandish. Fear...... I'm afraid he won't buy it. ”
"Lord Wang is worried about this." Zhang Fan heard him say this. Laughed. "You can rest assured of that. Although I, Zhang Fan, have not been in the company for long. But I also understand the truth in this. Rest assured. Even if General Liu is disrespectful. I'm definitely not going to say anything. Absolutely do not speak. When the time comes. It's going to bother the two adults to do more. ”
"That's easy to say. Say. The two people in front of Zhang Fan hurriedly responded.
They originally thought that the most difficult thing was to persuade Zhang Fan to agree to this matter. After all, Zhang Fan can be regarded as a young man. Now he has such an identity at a young age. Although I have also suffered a lot of grievances. But he was never said to his face. At that time, if Liu Xian really said something in front of Zhang Fan. They are afraid that it will not end well.
Although now there is Zhang Fan's reply. Say he won't say anything about it. But the two still feel a little unreliable. After all, no one knows what Liu Xian will say at that time. In case Zhang Fan is really on fire at that time. Whether to provoke Liu Xian or not is secondary. I'm afraid the two of them will have to spend the New Year here.
But. Wang Xilie believed Zhang Fan a little. After all, he is a relatively close person to Zhang Fan in the court. I still have some understanding of Zhang Fan's qi or something.
Right now. He could only hope for. At that time, Liu Xian's fiery temper. And that uncontrollable mouth. I can say a few words. Or don't say anything that particularly annoys Zhang Fan. Then he will burn high incense.
