Chapter 217: Concern
"Xianggong, but what's on your mind," Luo Ling'er looked at Zhang Fan, who was sitting there thinking about something, and stepped forward with great concern and asked, "Xianggong is worried about Liu Shan's account books,"
Originally, she didn't plan to hide anything from Luo Ling'er, but now that she saw it, Zhang Fan naturally wouldn't deny anything.
"Yes, it is for this matter," Zhang Fan sighed and said, "The news I got from you, I have already determined that Liu Shan is on the surface, that is, the account books that you let you please watch are fake, and now I am thinking about how to get Liu Shan to take out those real account books, so that this whole thing can be understood, this matter has dragged on for too long,"
Listening to Zhang Fan's somewhat helpless tone, although Luo Linger couldn't fully understand the depression in his heart, he could also hear something, indeed, Zhang Fan spent too much time on this matter, counting, since he went south from the capital and came to Yangzhou, it had already begun, but now, two months have passed, and the matter is still not understood.
However, this matter has dragged on for a long time, and for Luo Ling'er, there are two very opposite views.
For her, it is precisely because of such a long time that Zhang Fan got to know her, and even had such a marriage with her, which made Luo Linger feel the happiest, and now she is very grateful for this situation in some ways.
But on the other hand, for Zhang Fan, it is certainly not a good thing to do a thing for so long but it has not been done well, Luo Linger loves Zhang Fan deeply, and naturally cares about everything about him, because of his distress and distress, he understands that Zhang Fan must have a lot of things waiting for him to do in the capital, and now he is being dragged because the matter here has not been finished for a long time, even if Luo Linger can't understand what Zhang Fan is thinking, she also wants to share a part of it for him, so that he can be easier, and even, she knows, Zhang Fan must also be in his heart for his wife in Beijing, as well as his unborn child, even if a man he loves is thinking about another woman, even if Luo Linger doesn't like this feeling, but as long as Zhang Fan is troubled, she wants to share a part.
Luo Linger knew that her deep love for Zhang Fan might one day harm herself, and it would be extremely painful, but she made up her mind in her heart that no matter what she would give, she would keep her hard-won love, even if she was in a situation from which she could not recover.
"Xianggong, why do you need to be so obsessed with those account books," Luo Ling'er tried to enlighten Zhang Fan, although she understood and wanted to abide by the "virtue" of women not doing men's foreign affairs, but she really couldn't bear to see Zhang Fan so troubled, "Now Xianggong has mastered the evidence that Liu Shan is the head of the corrupt officials in these three provinces, and he just sent someone to arrest him, so why bother himself,"
"Hey, Ling'er, there are some things you don't know," Zhang Fan sighed and said to her, "If you can't get those account books, then you can't find out which officials are involved in this matter, this is only one thing, and the second is that if I don't have those account books, how can I track down the dirty silver that was embezzled by Liu Shan and his gang, but the matter about silver is not a big deal, if you can't find it, you can't find it, forget it, the officials who have always thoroughly investigated corruption have not known how much dirty silver they can't find, But there's nothing to cling to.
"But this time it's different, this time I'm here, not because of the official document issued by the imperial court ordering me to come to investigate thoroughly, but the emperor himself said to me, I understand the emperor's meaning very well, in addition to rewarding me for what I did in Mobei at the beginning of the year, the most important point is that the emperor is short of money, why, does it sound strange, as the emperor of the current day, he will be short of money, Ling'er, the emperor is not able to do whatever he wants, and even many times, being the emperor is very uncomfortable, of course, The emperor can also ignore nothing and only care about his own enjoyment, but if that happens, the world will immediately become chaotic.
"I'm here to talk to you about the room, Your Majesty, this ...... It's a little weird, Your Majesty, he wants to be a Ming Jun from the bottom of his heart, but he is also a little ...... This one...... Greedy for enjoyment, on weekdays, the use of the palace is also quite extraordinary, Your Majesty's inner treasury can not support such expenses, if Your Majesty he opens his mouth to ask the household for silver, I think the ministers will be very dissatisfied, but the minister may not be able to resist the emperor, but now His Majesty He wants to be a sage and a wise man, but he will not just reach out to the household to ask for money, so, this idea of making money, naturally falls on the investigation of corrupt officials, so I have to get Liu Shan's account books, Recover the money, so that when I return, I will have the money to pay to your majesty.
"Yesterday, Wang Meng said something to me, which made me feel that I really couldn't wait, and I was going to arrest Liu Shan on the spot, anyway, I got a lot of money from him, and it is estimated that after returning to Beijing, I can use these to give an account to Your Majesty, what...... You asked me why I unscrupulously accepted the bribes given to me by those officials some time ago, hehe, there is a reason for this, I am not afraid that someone will do anything on this, and when I think of His Majesty in the future, I will impeach me or something, but I have the approval of the emperor today, and even the holy decree is there, so I am naturally not afraid.
"Speaking of which, I had already decided to arrest Liu Shan like this yesterday, but at that time, I received a letter from Beijing, and it was because of that letter that I had to get those real account books from Liu Shan, and those account books recorded some things about a person, and someone wanted to use them against that person, but they were afraid that that person's comrades would stand up and say the opposite to help him exonerate, and the account books, which are clearly written in black and white, are the best evidence, and, first, The person who asked me for help has something to do with me, not to mention that I will also ask him for help in some things in the future, so naturally I can't stiffen the relationship with him now, which is why I have the current situation,"
Luo Ling'er waited until Zhang Fan finished speaking, and listened all the time, except for a few very concerned questions and asked aloud, the others did not say a word.
Zhang Fan said these things, she actually can't help at all, she can only be a quiet listener, but, this is exactly what Zhang Fan needs, now he is very troubled, and wants someone to talk about his troubles, even if it is just to say it, it will make him feel a lot better, of course, he can find Wang Meng or Liang Chao to talk, but he didn't, I don't know why, is it to maintain his dignity in front of his subordinates or something else, Zhang Fan hadn't confided in them about these things that they already knew, and Luo Ling'er just broke in when Zhang Fan was worried.
Maybe this person can be someone else, such as Yingyue, she will also listen to Zhang Fan's words like Luo Ling'er, comfort him, and open a window for his long-term depression, and Zhang Fan will also not be stingy with her, but Luo Ling'er feels that these things don't matter, as long as Zhang Fan can be comfortable, she is very satisfied.
"Forget it, what am I talking to you about," Zhang Fan smiled a little self-deprecatingly, he seemed to think that it was really funny to tell these things to a woman, and to one of his concubines, speaking of which, if you do this, it will seem even weaker, and you have to find a weak woman to vent the dissatisfaction in your heart, the difference is that this woman belongs to him, and this weakness will only exist between them, and it will not be passed on.
"No, Xianggong, you can tell the concubine about this, and let the concubine know about the Xianggong's troubles, which shows that the Xianggong also cares about the concubine, the concubine is a woman and a child, although it can't help the Xianggong with any major things, but if you can help the Xianggong solve problems, even if it's just a little bit, the concubine is very happy in body and mind," Luo Linger seemed to be afraid that Zhang Fan would misunderstand something, and hurriedly said, "Moreover, when the concubine body is talked, it's not that she can't help Xianggong,"
"You help me, how do you want to help," Listening to Luo Ling'er's words, Zhang Fan was very surprised, I don't know how she could have such an idea of wanting to help herself, and more importantly, how can Luo Ling'er, such a weak woman, help him, but it didn't take long for Zhang Fan to figure it out, he had just come out How Luo Ling'er planned to help him, "Ling'er, you don't want to ......"
Before Zhang Fan finished speaking, Luo Linger had already nodded, at this moment, what she was thinking in her heart was the same thing as what Zhang Fan guessed.
"No, I don't agree, I won't let you do this," Zhang Fan rejected her loudly, his words were particularly intense, as if he was afraid that if he slowed down, Luo Ling'er would do something stupid, "Ling'er, I don't hear it, I don't allow you to do this, I've missed it once, fortunately, I can wake up in time last time, otherwise it will be a big mistake, but even so, I still regret it now, I've been afraid, I'm afraid that if something happens at that time, how good, now, I won't let you take risks, ”
Listening to Zhang Fan's affectionate words, Luo Linger nodded silently, saying that she would listen to him and would not do stupid things, but her eyes were a little moist, and she suddenly felt in her heart: "It turns out that someone cares about her feelings, it is so good,"
