Chapter 717: Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals
"Yuande, you're here," seeing Zhang Fan, Zhang Juzheng still greeted him cordially as usual, but Zhang Fan felt that Zhang Juzheng today was much more enthusiastic than before, but to be honest, even if this was just Zhang Fan's own random speculation, but the situation at the scene was indeed like this, I didn't see that Zhang Juzheng was surrounded by so many "irrelevant" people, and Zhang Juzheng also looked a little unbearable, obviously, even Zhang Juzheng is a very sleek person, I can't stand this kind of scene anymore.
Besides, these are Feng Bao's people after all, although Zhang Juzheng doesn't understand what Feng Bao is planning, but he obviously has a useful intention in sending these people, and the most likely thing is to inquire about something, of course, what is the specific thing, Zhang Juzheng doesn't know, but it is precisely because he doesn't know, so Zhang Juzheng can't offend these people, and although these people are forced to join the Feng Bao Group due to the situation, and Feng Bao doesn't attach great importance to these people, but even so, Zhang Juzheng can't offend these people, after all, the reason why Feng Bao sent these people is that he doesn't want to make people too vigilant, if he offends these people because of this, who knows if these people will talk nonsense in front of Feng Bao.
Although these people are insignificant in the eyes of both Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, no one dares to guarantee whether Feng Bao will believe these people now, in case, it will be troublesome.
After all, now, whether it is Zhang Juzheng or Zhang Fan, they all need Feng Bao's "help".
Needless to say, Zhang Juzheng is now in several places to control water, and his test method is being tested, although it has already begun, but he still needs Feng Bao's help, if Feng Bao secretly does something from it, Zhang Juzheng is the last thing he wants to see that kind of situation.
And Zhang Fan's side is the same, and even compared to it, compared to Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Fan now doesn't want to arouse Feng Bao's idea, after all, Liang Chao is outside, and he is still carrying Hong'er, which is very dangerous, and if the four-dimensional thing allows Feng Bao to succeed, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Master Taifu," the group heard Zhang Juzheng's words, turned their heads and saw Zhang Fan, and hurriedly bowed down to salute, and their attitude was extremely respectful.
Zhang Fan also hurriedly made a smile and returned the salute.
In fact, from this point it can be seen what kind of people these people are, Zhang Fan was promoted to the title of Taifu, although he has this strength and this merit, but his qualifications are too few after all, but people in the court understand that Zhang Fan gets this official title, it is inevitable, after all, at that time, the new emperor Zhu Yijun had just ascended the throne, and it would be strange if he did not seal one or two of the most trusted people as his right and left hands, and Zhu Yijun was young, which made more sense, children are children, No matter how smart he is, he still can't get rid of the child's heart, and always wants to find someone to rely on.
Zhu Yijun is this type, in the past, he relied on his father, Emperor Longqing, not because of Emperor Longqing's blind love for Zhu Yijun, but also because Zhu Yijun himself did a good job, of course, to say that Zhu Yijun also has a mother of the Queen Mother, and a Queen Mother Chen who loves him as his own, but there is too much sternness in the love of the Empress Dowager Li, maybe Zhu Yijun still can't fully understand it at a young age, but he is also a little afraid, inadvertently, the distance between mother and son is a little estranged, and no matter how much Empress Dowager Chen loves, they are not biological mothers and sons.
Moreover, the death of Emperor Longqing made Zhu Yijun lose his father, and although Zhang Fan didn't say it, Zhu Yijun didn't say it, but the death of Emperor Longqing inadvertently made Zhang Fan also faintly replace the existence of that father.
All in all, Zhang Fan was able to get the title of Taifu, which is definitely justified in the eyes of people in the court.
And since Zhang Fan got the title of Taifu, the reactions in the court have been different, some people who think that Zhang Fan is a person who should be stammered, they are just some clowns, and the kind of people who feel that Zhang Fan's reputation is not justified and extremely unacceptable, but they are also the kind of narrow-minded people, and there is no need to ask.
However, most people are very able to see this, after all, they also understand what kind of reason there is, and they can think about it, naturally they will not have too much jealousy, not to mention, although the official title of Taifu is extremely glorious, but in the final analysis, it is just a false title, except for the appearance of the accident, and there is nothing essentially internal, which Zhang Fan sees very clearly, and those people also see it very clearly.
Therefore, many people don't think there is any problem with Zhang Fan, who should be regarded as the title of Taifu according to the current situation, and these people, when they see Zhang Fan, they just smile slightly, and they never show flattery or jealousy.
Now, these people in front of him are too obvious, Zhang Fan can't help frowning, this is not because Zhang Fan is worried about these people, but because he also thought of the same problem as Zhang Juzheng, this kind of person cannot be offended, especially this kind of villain.
And now, the two of them don't know at all, what Feng Bao asked these people to do, Zhang Fan also looked at Zhang Juzheng, with the meaning of inquiry in his eyes, although Zhang Juzheng couldn't say it clearly in front of these people, but the meaning in his eyes when he looked at Zhang Fan was already very obvious, obviously, Zhang Juzheng didn't know what Feng Bao asked these people to do.
At this moment, Zhang Fan and Zhang Juzheng "talked" a lot of things, but they couldn't figure out the reason, but time would not wait for the two of them to understand, Zhang Fan didn't speak, but someone spoke first.
"By the way, Master Taifu," one of them said, "We've been busy lately,"
When Zhang Fan heard him ask such a question, his heart couldn't help but become vigilant, and so did Zhang Juzheng on the side, after all, he also knew a little bit about what Zhang Fan was planning to do recently, and now this person asked this is equivalent to Feng Bao asking this, which has to make them vigilant.
"My lord said with a smile," Zhang Fan smiled very formulaically, and said, "The things in Jinyiwei, the adults are not unaware, after all, there are countless official documents to deal with every day, not to mention that there are a group of people staring, something will happen on one side, but it is just to say that he is busy, but he can't, after all, this person always has to rest, no matter how busy he is, he must have free time,"
"What Master Taifu said is," the other person hurriedly said, "like me, I don't know the trick, I only know how to be busy, but I don't know whether the direction is right or not, in the end, the strength is also out, and the person is tired, but it is not right, it is really not good,"
After that, another group of people had a discussion.
And Zhang Fan and Zhang Juzheng stood aside and just watched coldly, not saying anything, they still couldn't figure out what Feng Bao asked these people to do.
"By the way, Lord Zhang," it was still the same person who spoke before, and looking at his appearance, he seemed to have discovered some new problem, and asked Zhang Fan, "However, it is not easy for the lower officials to look at the subordinates of the adults,"
"What do you say," Zhang Fan couldn't help but become alert when he mentioned his subordinates, "My subordinates, what's wrong," but even if he became vigilant, Zhang Fan was naturally unable to show any of his feet, he still made a look of not knowing anything, a very curious look, and asked.
"This ...... It's not a thing," the man seemed to be a little hesitant, and said, "Maybe others didn't pay attention, but the lower officials did see some things, in the past, when adults came to the court, there were always two guards around them, and the others would rotate, but these two people were thunderbolts, always by the side of adults, thinking about it, these two people must be the adults' right-hand men,"
"What my lord said is good, those two people are called Wang Meng and Liang Chao, and they are indeed my most capable subordinates," Zhang Fan already understood in his heart, but he still made an ordinary appearance, and said, "Wang Meng doesn't need to say anything, since I just came to Jinyiwei to serve, Cheng Guogong put him by my side, and Wang Meng is strong in force, and he can be said to be my savior. Several adults also know, that time, if it weren't for Wang Meng's words, I'm afraid my life would be difficult to protect, and Wang Meng was also seriously injured in order to save me, and almost died outside the gate, but when I came back, I wanted to reward him, but he didn't want anything, he said that he didn't do anything worthy of praise, just doing his own work and protecting me, just ask such a person, if I don't reuse it, is there any reason for this?"
"Your Excellency is right," said the man, and with a sigh, he said, "Alas, it would be nice if the court could have a few more such figures."
"By the way, Lord Taifu, there is another one, I remember Lord Taifu just now said that it was ...... Liang Chao is not,"
"That's right," Zhang Fan's smile still didn't change, and said, "Liang Chao's family has been working in Jinyiwei for generations, and his ability is not small, but he is a little flamboyant, but there is one thing, if he meets exactly, he will definitely not have the slightest delay,"
"So, it's very good to 'work and rest,'" the man smiled and asked, "Why didn't you see Escort Liang today?"
"This ......" Zhang Fan showed a very troubled look, and said in a slurred manner, "This is really a little difficult to say,"
And Zhang Fan's expression made several people interested,
