Chapter 220: The Raider Begins
In front of the door of Liu Shan's mansion, a car stopped, and Zhang Fan was the first to come out, followed by Luo Ling'er, and Liu Shan stood in front of the door and waited, although Zhang Fan did not say that he was coming today, according to common etiquette, he did not have to come today, but Liu Shan was still waiting in front of the door, or he really had a good heart, knowing that Zhang Fan would come to the door today; The most important door is through what special channel I know about Zhang Fan's itinerary today.
"Master Zhang...... Hey, look at our mouth, I can't change it," Liu Shan said this, quickly stopped, and wanted to hit his mouth, but his face kept smiling, and said, "Yuande, you're here,"
"It stands to reason today that the younger brother should have come to the eldest brother's residence, and I think Ling'er will like her too," Zhang Fan also threw out polite words, and many of the words were even nonsense with his eyes open.
"It's good to come, it's good to come, let's go into the house quickly," Liu Shan didn't care whether Zhang Fan was telling a lie or the truth at all, anyway, he warmly invited Zhang Fan into the house.
Zhang Fan also followed Liu Shan's meaning, and walked to the gate of Liu's Mansion with Liu Shan talking and laughing along the way, and Luo Ling'er on the side followed behind Zhang Fan, silently, and always kept a smile on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.
Today, there were only two people who came to act as guards with Zhang Fan, Wang Meng and Li Yang, and when they saw Zhang Fan walking into the gate of Liu's mansion, they didn't say anything.
When Zhang Fan was about to walk into the gate of Liu's mansion, he seemed to suddenly remember something, turned his mind and said to the two people next to the car: "Wang Meng, don't follow the two of you, while disturbing the peace of my eldest brother, when it's almost time at night, you are waiting for me," the meaning of these words is that Zhang Fan told Liu Shan that he planned to stay here until dinner before leaving, which was also what Zhang Fan deliberately told Liu Shan, saying that he had a lot of things to talk about with Liu Shan, At the same time, it also shows that Zhang Fan and Liu Shan are really in the same boat now, and now is the time to plan the future in detail.
Sure enough, when Liu Shan heard Zhang Fan say this, a smile appeared on his face.
"But, my lord, this time I am here to protect my lord," Wang Meng did not leave immediately, but said, this is also the most basic thing to be a guard, for the safety of his boss, sometimes he has to ask, even if it will anger others, "If the lowly person leaves, and if something happens here, how good is it?"
"Don't worry about this kind of thing, it won't happen," Zhang Fan showed an indifferent look and said, "Not to mention, now is the peaceful and prosperous era, where there will be small people to make trouble, not to mention, today I am here with my eldest brother, where will that kind of thing happen, you go quickly, don't spoil the scenery here," Zhang Fan said back, and even had an impatient expression on his face, and secretly glanced at Liu Shan twice, as if he was afraid that he would laugh at him and not even control his subordinates.
Zhang Fan's action seems to be secretive, but in fact he is very knowledgeable, which can not only make Liu Shan find that he is peeking at his face, but also make a feeling that he is actually sneaky, to be honest, this is still a little difficult, Zhang Fan has contacted himself many times, but he is still afraid that Liu Shan will see something, but this time he personally went into battle, he felt that he was doing a good job.
Sure enough, Liu Shan looked like he had been deceived by Zhang Fan, and he did have the kind of thought that Zhang Fan wanted in his heart, the most obvious thing was that the smile on his face was even worse, like a flower, with his already handsome and extraordinary delicate face, it was really a bit beautiful, but Zhang Fan didn't think so, as long as he thought of Liu Shan's identity, but he still had to make such a look, he felt a disgust in his heart, in his opinion, the person who was a eunuch had nothing to laugh at, if it wasn't for the situation being stronger than people, Who wants to be a eunuch, but a eunuch must have the consciousness of a eunuch, or be natural, don't deliberately do anything, this is better, just like Feng Bao, Zhang Fan at least doesn't hate Feng Bao too much.
Below, Wang Meng heard Zhang Fan's answer, his face showed a helpless look, shook his head, greeted Liyang on the side, and the two of them set up the car and left.
When the two of them walked away, Liu Shan suddenly said to Zhang Fan: "Yuande, why are you acting like this?"
"What is the eldest brother referring to," Zhang Fan asked as he looked at Liu Shan with a pretended puzzlement.
"What happened just now," Liu Shan hated the taste of iron and steel, "As a subordinate, he should follow the orders of the superiors, and to the subordinate of Yuande just now, he is simply arrogant to the extreme, and he dares to question your decision to be the master, this kind of subordinate, the door is arrogant, looks down on you, and does not listen to your orders; Either you have two minds, you are a little disgusted, this kind of person is not used, if it goes on like this, this person will definitely make trouble for Yuande in the future, this is a big taboo,"
"Hey, big brother, you don't know anything," Zhang Fan let out a long sigh, but his heart was very happy, because Liu Shan would say this, which proves that he really agrees with Zhang Fan at this moment, otherwise he wouldn't care about Zhang Fan or anything about this kind of thing, in this way, Zhang Fan knows that his first goal today, let Liu Shan trust that he has achieved it, which is a good start, and below, he also plans to get closer to Liu Shan.
"Oh, Yuande, is there any reason for this," Sure enough, Liu Shan followed Zhang Fan's words and asked, "I just heard Yuande call that guard called Wang Meng, could it be that this Wang Meng has some background in the court, and even Yuande is jealous of him,"
"Hey, what the eldest brother said is just the opposite, this Wang Mengcai has no power in the court," Zhang Fan said helplessly, "He was originally a son of a peasant family, his family was not rich, and he was not much poor, he served in the army in the north, fought a few battles, and then served in the Jinyi Guard, and it has been almost ten years now,"
"Oh, listening to Yuande say this, our family feels a little weird," Liu Shan's interest was immediately mobilized, "This person is a farmer's child, has no power and power, and has been a soldier in the army, this kind of person is logically speaking, although his temperament is a little stronger, but he has no background, and he is the easiest to be excluded, so there is nothing else to do,"
As they spoke, the three of them had already come to the living room and sat down, and the servants of the Free Liu Mansion served tea.
Zhang Fan picked up the cup, blew it, took a sip of tea, and then continued: "The eldest brother guessed well, the situation is exactly like this, this Wang Meng is not bad to say, at least he doesn't drag his feet when he gets things done, and he is very calm, but this person is not very good at communicating with people, after entering the Jinyi Guard, he was promoted to 100 households in the second year, but until I received the official position of the commander, I haven't moved for nine years, this is the momentum, so I am a little disdainful.
"But at that time, I had just taken power, and there were many people in Wei who disagreed with me, I investigated a little and found that there were not many people like Wang Meng in Wei, in order to quickly master these people, I immediately promoted him to a thousand households, and wanted to envelop these people, this trick really worked, those people agreed with me, and my reputation in Wei Zhong also rose a lot, but this Wang Meng did not accept my affection, and he still did this to me,"
"Hmph, this kind of person who doesn't know what to do should be eliminated as soon as possible, so as not to stay by his side, and it will be a scourge in the future," Liu Shan snorted coldly and said.
"What the eldest brother said is, it's just ......" Zhang Fan paused and said with a wry smile, "Little brother, I also have this idea, but this Wang Meng has always done things very well, and now I want to get rid of him, but there is no good reason, and I am afraid that those people will be dissatisfied because of this matter, and they will stumble on me or something,"
"Yuande, big brother is going to talk about you," Liu Shan said to Zhang Fan in a tone of a passerby, "To this kind of subordinate who is not subject to discipline, it must not be put by your side, Yuande is better to get rid of it as soon as possible, Yuande your concerns eldest brother also knows, but sometimes, you can't think about doing things so much, otherwise you can't do anything, Yuande, you are good at everything, you have wisdom, and you also have an identity in the court, but there is only one thing, your time as an official is too short, and your knowledge is too short, which is not good,"
"I still have to ask the eldest brother about this, what is the solution, I hope the eldest brother will give him advice," Zhang Fan now followed Liu Shan's words.
"Yuande, you are asking the right person, I know this kind of thing best, eldest brother," Sure enough, Liu Shan was very happy when he heard Zhang Fan asking for advice from him, "You can ignore it, take down this Wang Meng first, Yuande don't panic, I know what you want to say, big brother, I am free to counteract, after this, those people with no background will inevitably feel that they are still not very reliable in doing things under you, and there are many of them, and there will inevitably be some trouble."
"If you want to avoid this situation, it's very simple, Yuande, you just need to let people spread the news in the guard after taking down Wang Meng, saying that this Wang Meng was arrested because he committed something, but in this way, those people may not believe it, or they will make trouble, at this time, you have to promote a person from among them again, of course, this person must listen to you, so that the gang will naturally believe it, and feel that Wang Meng was indeed arrested because of his crime, in the future, You will also have a lot of respect for Yuande,"
When Zhang Fan heard this, he immediately said yes again and again.
In fact, he and Wang Meng acted in such a play just now, just to show Liu Shan, and now, the effect is also good, Liu Shan may not have found it himself, but now he has unconsciously stood on Zhang Fan's side, it is completely for Zhang Fan's sake, Zhang Fan wants this effect, but Liu Shan's words just now also made him feel that Liu Shan is not simple in the end.
It seems that although I got off to a good start today, things will not be easy in the future.
