Chapter 221: The Conflict of Interests (I)
"By the way, Ling'er, you got married the day before yesterday, but you were in a bit of a hurry," Liu Shan suddenly said to Luo Ling'er, "I haven't said goodbye to the people in the mansion yet, especially that Xing'er, who used to stick to you the most, let's go quickly,"
Luo Ling'er heard Liu Shan's words, looked at Zhang Fan, and saw that Zhang Fan nodded, so he said, "Brother, sister is going now," After speaking, she looked at Zhang Fan again, and turned to leave.
Until Luo Ling'er left, Liu Shan laughed again and said to Zhang Fan: "Yuande, you have a good family discipline, a family discipline, hehehe,"
"Big brother smiled," Zhang Fan replied casually, and then began to concentrate, and let Luo Ling'er go, Liu Shan must have something important to say to himself, which made Zhang Fan a little strange, after all, everything between the two had never been hidden from Luo Ling'er, but now Liu Shan wanted to break Luo Ling'er, how could this not make Zhang Fan curious.
"Yuande should be able to see that our family has something to say to you," Liu Shan said straight to the point.
"If the eldest brother has anything to say, please say it," Zhang Fan said.
"That's the case, I heard that there is some gap between you and Gao Gong, the capital of the cabinet of the current dynasty," Liu Shan deliberately lowered his voice and asked in a low voice.
"Uh...... Is this, between my little brother and Gao Gong, there is no direct stake, but there are indeed some stories in it," Zhang Fan doesn't know what Liu Shan means by asking, could it be that this matter has nothing to do with Gao Gong, considering this, he said that the contradiction between Gao Gong and Gao Gong is ambiguous and dispensable, so as to talk about Liu Shan's true meaning, "Speaking of which, when Gao Gong and I first met, there was still some good feeling between the two of us, but now it is not good, some time ago, presumably my father-in-law also knew, Because of the old Xu Ge who has now retired, there is some friction between me and Gao Gong, although during this time, the two of us are thousands of miles apart and have never met, but this contradiction is finally some,"
"Well, that's right," Liu Shan listened to Zhang Fan's words, pondered for a while, and said, "That is to say, between Yuande and the high arch now, there are still mustards, but there are some dispensable,"
Zhang Fan heard Liu Shan say this, his heart was a little confused, he could see that Liu Shan was asking whether the relationship between him and Gao Gong was good or bad, and then decided whether to say something to him, although he didn't know what Gao Gong was going to say, but Zhang Fan's purpose now was to win Liu Shan's trust, it seemed that he had to make a choice now.
It stands to reason that there is a relationship of interest between Meng Chong, the eunuch in the palace, and Liu Shan, and Meng Chong snatched his current position from Feng Bao because of Gao Gong's recommendation.
First of all, some time ago, many people here knew about his fight with Gao Gong, and Liu Shan also knew about it, since this was the case, Liu Shan still asked him so, which couldn't help but make Zhang Fan feel a little drumming in his heart, and he didn't know what choice he should make now.
Thinking about it, he didn't know what was going on, and suddenly thought of the sentence he had heard in his previous life, "How many times can life fight", now is the time to work hard, let go of those chaotic thoughts in his heart, Zhang Fan is ready to gamble.
"Between me and the high arch, it seems that there is nothing to do now, but in fact, it will inevitably be the opposite in the future," Zhang Fan said, he knows a truth, the best lie is based on the truth, and what he said is the real situation between him and Gao Gong, although he is temporarily sending back the people sent by Gao Gong to find trouble with Xu Jie, but Gao Gong is already iron-hearted, and he has to kill Xu Jie to be happy, so when the time comes, Zhang Fan still has something to happen between Gao Gong, but, Zhang Fan is more confident now.
"Oh, there is still some mystery in this matter," Liu Shan seemed to be aroused by Zhang Fan's words, and asked.
When Zhang Fan heard it, he secretly called trouble, originally, it should be okay to say this sentence by himself, after all, it is more wrong to say more, in case he made a mistake, what he said just now is not without a way out, but now, Liu Shan has turned around to get to the bottom of it, which makes Zhang Fan how good, he knows that his explanation is to confirm the irreconcilable contradiction between himself and Gao Gong.
Zhang Fan didn't speak for a long time, but Liu Shan didn't let him go, just waiting, Zhang Fan saw that he didn't say no, thought about it, and had to explain.
"That's the case, there were some different political opinions between me and Xu Ge Lao before, and they used to be-for-tat, and they were also inextricably linked," Zhang Fan said, "But now, the old man and I have all the previous suspicions, and what Gao Gong did this time is really a bit too downhill, and the old man is a little bit ignorant, after all, he is my teacher's teacher's teacher, for the sake of the teacher's face, I also want to help the old man, not to mention that the old man has done anything wrong."
"In the previous game, although Gao Gong used all means, but after all, I relied on the geographical advantage and won him, but that Gao Gong really had some grudges against the old man, he was already planning to directly impeach the old man, and now the eunuch Meng Chong, the eunuch of the palm print of the palace celebrant supervisor, was recommended by Gao Gong, so that the excerpt of Gao Gong's impeachment of the old man will inevitably be taken by Meng Chong to be directly presented to the underground for viewing, I'm afraid it's a little troublesome,"
"Oh, that's what happened," After listening to Zhang Fan's explanation, Liu Shan suddenly realized, but he didn't speak.
Zhang Fan waited left and right, didn't see Liu Shan answer, thinking that he was betting in the wrong direction, different political views and standing in the wrong team are big things, if he is wrong, then the favor of Liu Shan that he just got may change quickly, but after Zhang Fan only took people first, he was tracking down the account books, if he could find it, it was okay, if he couldn't find it, he had to face Feng Bao's unhappiness.
"That's great," Liu Shan said suddenly.
"What," Zhang Fan, who had been thinking about it just now, didn't notice it for a while, and he didn't know what Liu Shan said at all, and he couldn't help but secretly say that his temperament was not calm enough, if he clearly showed the thoughts in his heart on his face like this, the situation that might have been able to be saved might be irremediable.
"It would be great if I said something like that," Liu Shan looked at Zhang Fan suspiciously, repeating his words.
Hearing this, Zhang Fan's heart also laughed, he knew that he had made the right bet and learned the lesson he had just learned, this time Zhang Fan showed a calm face, and then an inexplicable look, seeing Liu Shan is smile.
"What does the eldest brother mean by that," Zhang Fan asked, "I can guess that the eldest brother must not be happy that the younger brother is in trouble, but the younger brother really doesn't know what the eldest brother is happy about, and I hope that the eldest brother will give advice,"
"Hehe," Liu Shan laughed twice and said, "This matter, Yuande, you seem to be very complicated, you have no clue at all, in fact, it is very simple, and listen to me slowly."
"In other words, if there is any contradiction between you and Gao Gong Yuande, or if you want to make a case in the future, either you die or I live, I can't control this, and I don't want to care, it all depends on Yuande yourself, but I know that if you have a gap with Gao Gong, at least one point, that is, you will never help him,"
"Help him, what does the eldest brother mean by that," Zhang Fan asked, "Could it be that this high arch has also provoked the eldest brother, and the eldest brother plans to deal with him,"
"It's not Gao Gong," Liu Shan shook his head, "I don't have that much ability to move Gao Gong, and there is nothing wrong with him,"
"Then big brother, who do you want to deal with," Zhang Fan asked, he was even more curious now, Liu Shan went around with him in such a big circle to ask about the relationship between him and Gao Gong, and the person he had to deal with must have a great background.
"Actually, this person, Yuande was also mentioned in your words just now," Liu Shan didn't say directly, but played a dumb riddle.
When Zhang Fan heard him say this, he thought about it in his heart, and understood: "Big brother is going to deal with Meng Chong," After saying this, Zhang Fan himself felt a little incredible.
"Yes, it's Meng Chong," Liu Shan nodded and said, confirming Zhang Fan's guess.
At this moment, Zhang Fan pondered in his heart, although Liu Shan himself did not tell him about the relationship between Liu Shan and Meng Chong, but he also understood from elsewhere that Liu Shan could have today's "achievement" and do such a big deal of corruption and perversion of the law, Meng Chong must have made a lot of efforts to hide a lot of things for him, but now, Liu Shan told him that he wanted to deal with Meng Chong, how could this make Zhang Fan not confused.
"Big brother, although this Meng Chong is indeed a little mediocre, presumably, he didn't provoke the eldest brother, but why did the eldest brother do this," Zhang Fan asked.
"Yuande, let's tell you the truth," Liu Shan looked at Zhang Fan and said, "I am now on the same front as you, although I am now on the same side as you, but you and I both understand that I will be attached to you in the future, and this is also the relationship between me and Meng Chong before,"
Zhang Fan listened to his words, and his face immediately showed a very surprised expression, but he was guessing in his heart: "Could it be that there is something wrong between this guy and Meng Chong, and now he has found me as a backer, but he wants to give up Meng Chong's side, it is not an impossible thing, the relationship between him and Meng Chong is just money, and it is not very reliable, and now it seems that it is finally the East Window incident, but I don't know how serious it is between them,"
"How does the eldest brother want to deal with this Meng Chong," Zhang Fan didn't ask the reason first, but asked Liu Shan what he wanted first, so that he wouldn't seem to be anxious to know what was going on, and he could roughly understand how far things had got.
When Liu Shan heard this, his face was a little weird, and Zhang Fan couldn't tell whether he was laughing or crying, in short, it was difficult to understand.
"I want Meng Chong to shut up for me forever," Liu Shan said through gritted teeth.
