"Are you sure it's really okay here." Zhang Fan thought about Liang Chao, who was standing on the side, and asked.

"Your Excellency. There's really nothing going on here. Liang Chao replied. Now the merchant ships returning to the sea are protected by the warships of the imperial court. In addition, there is an order that if you find a Japanese coward, you can attack. Not a single merchant ship returning to sea has ever been successfully attacked by pirates. ”

"That's good." Zhang Fan listened to him. Very satisfied. "In a few days, we will go back to Yangzhou. I'm just trying to make sure there's anything else I need to be aware of here. Because Yangzhou is not far from here. But it's not close. In case something happens again. I don't want to make another trip back. ”

"Don't worry, sir. I don't know if anything will happen in the future. But now it's nothing. Liang Chao replied. He felt as if he and Zhang Fan were saying something tongue twister. But Liang Chao was originally a slippery head. This is not only because he has served in the brocade guard for many years. Of course. There are also some family roots in it. And now his way of speaking directly is not because of anything else. It's because he's a slippery head. He knew how to talk to whomever he saw. And Zhang Fan is exactly the kind of person who likes to speak directly. And so. Today's Liang Chao uses his slippery head to dress himself up as a rectum person.

Although Liang Chao didn't say anything nice. But this way of telling the truth really likes Zhang Fan. He even felt that Liang Chao was such a slippery person before. And now he has become "honest and loyal" because of his charisma, which has changed Liang Chao.

"It's just my lord. There is a matter of ignorance in the lowly position. Liang Chao asked. Seeing Zhang Fan nodded. He continued. "At the beginning, the adults came to Fujian in the name of inspecting coastal defense. It's not because the adults heard what was going on here. What do you think is a ...... Breakthrough. Now the adults don't get anything. Are you going back? ”

"No, no, no. I didn't get anything here, though. But I also know a lot of things. Zhang Fan smiled and shook his head and said. First. I'm afraid I won't be able to use my name of inspecting coastal defense. He Kuan, the governor of Fujian, was an honest and honest official, and governed the army well. The soldiers under his command are also well-trained and mighty. This is not official words. It's true. And even now there are still many Japanese pirates on the sea who covet those returning merchant ships. But now a solution has been found to this problem. The Japanese could no longer harass ships at sea. And I don't have any reason to stay here anymore.

"Second. The original purpose of our trip to Fujian. Not for nothing. As the saying goes. 'Shoot the man before the horse. Capture the thief and capture the king first'. Didn't we know where the source of everything was this time? Although there must have been someone else above that person who was directing him. But that's enough. There is no need to fall into the trap. The dog jumped over the wall when he was in a hurry. "Speaking of which. Zhang Fan was very happy.

"Your Excellency is really wise." Liang Chao slapped Zhang Fan slightly. "Just staring at these small fish and shrimp will end up with no results. And now we know who's behind it. As long as you can get the evidence. My lord's trip to Jiangnan was a complete success. When the time comes, I will return to Beijing. Your Majesty will certainly think more highly of important people. And the adults have no match for their strategy. Use the woman who is dead to the adult to carry out the counter-plot. It will inevitably lead to success. It doesn't take much time to ......."

Liang Chao said. The voice grew quieter. The reason is simple. He found himself a little overexcited. That's a bit too much. And Zhang Fan's face gradually became happy when he listened to his words from the beginning. Until the end, it was completely cold. Liang Chao hurriedly stopped. I was extremely remorseful in my heart, and at the same time, I knew that I had slapped the horse's leg with this sycophant. Liang Chao almost wanted to immediately open a bow to himself left and right, dozens of big mouths. Secretly sigh how he is so carried away. Forgot about Luo Ling'er's stubble. But what I said was a little frowning.

looked at Zhang Fan's very unhappy face. Liang Chao had palpitations. There is still a slight uncertainty in my heart. Maybe it's because I've been in contact with these superiors since I was a child. He didn't understand why, though. But he never understood. To today's Zhang Fan. Zhang Fan, who has status, money and power. The world is big. What kind of woman is not at his mercy. And why make it so emotional like now. It's just like ...... Just like those amorous women. Of course. He could only think about these words in his heart. Let him speak up. That's impossible.

"That's right. My lord. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, there seems to be something wrong with him lately. Liang Chao hurriedly thought of a way to change the topic. Although His Highness, he is still the same as before. Go out early and return late every day to play. However, when the humble position has occasionally seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recently. I found that His Highness was a little different from what he used to be. ”

"Different." Zhang Fan was really attracted by this topic. Hurriedly asked. "Your Highness, how is he different from the past." After all, Longqing handed over Zhu Yijun to himself. If something happens. I can't afford that responsibility.

"Don't worry, sir. There are many brothers who protect His Highness both openly and secretly. There are no surprises. Liang Chao knew that Zhang Fan had misunderstood. Hurry up and say. "It's just that His Highness's whereabouts in the past few days are a little abnormal."

When I heard Zhu Yijun, it was not any danger. Zhang Fan was relieved. But he was still a little curious: "Let's hear it." ”

"Your Highness, he ...... He's been always pushing the people behind him lately. Just with that Nurhachi. All day ...... Play in a play garden. Liang Chao said with a strange expression.

"Drama Garden." Zhang Fan was a little weird when he heard it. "What is he going to do there. It is impossible to listen to the play. He doesn't like to listen to plays. Zhang Fan naturally knew. Although Zhu Yijun behaved appropriately in the palace. But after all, he was only an eight-year-old child. Naturally, there is a sense of play. But drama will definitely not be what Zhu Yijun likes. In the past, in the palace. The queen recuperated all day. Can't walk around and bored. Longqing cares about the love of husband and wife. I care about her very much. Knowing that she likes to watch plays. Every once in a while, the troupe is allowed to enter the palace to perform. And Zhu Yijun is the crown prince of the dynasty. Nature is meant to be present. Zhang Fan has experienced it a few times. But every time. He found that Zhu Yijun was always lacking in interest. I don't cherish this kind of opportunity to relax. Rather, it is used to doze off. However, Zhang Fan did not plan to delve into this matter. Besides, he didn't go to a Fengyue place. Harmless. Thereupon. He added, "It's nothing. Will everybody change? What's more, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he is still a child after all. There's nothing wrong with going to the theater. ”

"That's what I thought at first. I didn't care. Liang Chao sighed. Said. "But the lowly found out. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been there for the first time. But today is the fifth day in a row. Every day is spent there for a whole day. Even when it rains heavily, it never stops. ”

"This. Child. Once there is interest. Nothing can stop it. Zhang Fan wanted to laugh a little. But it's not good to perform. I had to pick up the teacup and drink the tea to cover it up.

Liang Chao didn't think there was anything funny. He continued: "That's what I thought at first. But yesterday I was a little worried. Or call the brothers who follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Asked about the situation. It was found that ...... Found. Your Highness, he didn't go to the opera garden to listen to the play. But...... It's for a ...... A woman. ”

"Poof...... cough cough cough ......" Zhang Fan listened to Liang Chao's words. Halfway through the swallowing, all the tea squirted out. He also ignored the wet placket. Coughing violently.

"Your Excellency. My lord. You're fine. Liang Chao was shocked when he saw this. Hurriedly stepped forward and patted Zhang Fan on the back.

Half a day. Zhang Fan got better. Although there is still a slight cough. But he couldn't care about that much anymore. Hurriedly said: "What do you say." Your Highness...... He went to the garden for a woman. I misheard. Or did you say it. ”

Liang Chao looked at Zhang Fan with some grievances. It took a long time before he spoke: "My lord." Humble ...... There is nothing wrong with the lowly position. The adults didn't hear it wrong. Circumstance...... It's like an adult hears it. His Royal Highness has been going to the garden all day these days just for a woman. ”

He ...... This...... He...... He...... This...... This ......" Zhang Fan didn't know what to say for a long time. Something was muttering all the time. It sounds like I want to sing. Another long time passed. before he spoke. "What does the other party do. Drama. ”

"The woman did work in the troupe. I heard that he signed a deed of sale and the owner of the theater troupe. It's just that the appearance is very ordinary. He was about twenty-eight years old. Liang Chao replied.

"Did His Highness meet her by chance or ......," Zhang Fan continued to ask. He wanted to figure out why. Of course, the most important thing is whether this matter is aimed at Zhu Yijun or someone else.

"Naturally, it's a chance encounter." Liang Chao replied. "Your Excellency. Humble feelings. This incident is too coincidental though. But I don't want to have any conspiracy in it. If it's really someone's trick. That's too fortuitous. And no one will get such an ordinary woman to attract anyone. And. Regardless of whether there is a conspiracy or not. They should also think of it. This is a ploy for His Highness, who is still an eight-year-old child. It didn't work. ”

Zhang Fan listened to his explanation. Think about it, too: "That's right." But how did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know that woman? How could you be so ...... to such a woman who is a playmaker? How to say it. 'Fascinated'. ”

Liang Chao was also a little puzzled: "These things are unknown." According to the brethren. They followed the prince into the streets. They never let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince take half a step out of their sight. And that day. His Highness also seemed to have a sudden whim. entered the theater garden. The woman came out of nowhere. I can't say two words to His Highness. The woman actually hugged Her Highness and cried. Since then. His Highness began to go to the opera garden every day. Never stop. And every time. As long as the woman doesn't go on stage. will be around and talk to His Highness. The brothers used to go and listen. It's just a common word. ”

"It's weird." Zhang Fan was even more puzzled when he heard this. "Don't go around talking. Tell those who know not to speak nonsense. In the evening, I personally asked His Highness. What the hell is going on. ”
