Chapter 630: The Hour Is Wrong

Zhang Fan has now made up his mind.

This time. He had to go to Ge Shouli's house himself. Clarify the facts of the matter. Then offer to ask him to help. And. This time. It must be Zhang Fan to go. With something from the last time. Although Zhang Fan has never heard what is going on from Ge Shouli or Zhang Juzheng's mouth. But from the look and tone of voice between the two. and what Zhang Fan found out from Zhang Juzheng's mouth. It was already so that he could guess what it was like at that time. And actually. Zhang Fan's guess is also ** is not far from ten.

All in all. Zhang Juzheng couldn't go this time. If he goes again. Maybe even if it is done, it is still such a good thing. But his attitude and the things he did to Ge Shouli. It is also very likely that Ge Shouli will know that things are a good thing. But they won't buy his account anymore. It's not that Zhang Fan has any opinions about Ge Shouli. It's really Zhang Juzheng's thing that is too inauthentic. That is, Ge Shouli can endure it like this. If only it were a different person. It's been a long time coming.

But although Zhang Fan has already made up his mind now. But there is no hurry. After all, nowadays. The flooding has only just appeared. And. Pan Jitao and the other water control people have just set off for Henan and Nanzhili today. Although the matter of flooding is very important. As the chief officer, the two of them naturally had to seize the time and go all out. But something. No matter how anxious you are, you can't rush it. After all, it's something that needs to be well planned.

As it has been. Although Pan Jitao is in a hurry now. But road traffic in this era was not well developed. Although Henan is not far from Beijing. But it's hundreds of miles away. Pan Jitao is also a literati. Naturally, they don't go on horseback. By car. It takes a day anyway.

And. Even if Pan Ji got there. Don't take care of your own exertion. Without eating or drinking, he immediately began to count the disaster. Prepare to report how much silver the court should use. But it's not that simple. Although there are two floods. Pan Jitao managed nothing more than Henan. But there is not only one place in Henan where the embankment has been broken. At that time, Pan Jitao will inevitably have to visit many places to be able to grasp the detailed disaster situation. Only then can you understand how much silver you should use. After all, for such a thing as silver. The imperial court has always been cautious. Pan Jitao has controlled water many times in the past. Nature understands this. Although it is impossible to report as much as you should. Not a penny. After all, it is necessary to report more. It is used to deal with all kinds of unexpected situations that may arise. But there is a limit to this. You can't ask for it indiscriminately.

And. Pan Jitao has always been cautious about water control. Maybe when he gets there, he will immediately organize people to govern it. But for the statistics should be how much money should cost the above thing. It's not troublesome, but it's also wrong. It is impossible for Pan Jitao to make a hasty decision just based on the situation reported by the officials below. Then it is very likely that some people will take advantage of the loophole. He must have gone in person. See for yourself. That's when a decision can be made.

That's a lot of stuff. But it's not too much. In addition, Pan Jitao is a person who deeply understands this way. When you look at it, you can see why. But. It's no matter how simple it is. But it also takes time. Maybe one day. Or maybe two days. Although the floods are still there. But the water also comes and goes quickly. It's not as fierce as it was a few days ago. But this is the time of the day or two. For Zhang Fan. But it's already a lot.

Plus. Pan Jitao also asked someone to send the report back. Even if it is expedited with 800 miles. But it also takes half a day to get to the capital.

So now Zhang Fan is not too anxious to talk to Ge Shouli about this matter. At first, things are not imminent. Second, Zhang Juzheng went to find Ge Shouli yesterday after all. It was Ge Shouli who agreed to his request uncomfortably. And now. It's not even a day. Zhang Fan came to the door again.

And so it goes. No matter how sincere Zhang Fan is. But it may not be able to work out. Rather than doing something so uncertain. It's better to wait until the right time. It's good to break with one blow. During this time, Ge Shouli was first calmed down.

Come to think of it. Zhang Fan also had to think of Zhang Juzheng. Maybe Zhang Juzheng is in the mood now. It's also quite complicated. Today's Zhang Juzheng. It's a mixed bag.

Naturally, there is no need to say much about the happy things. Although he made Ge Shouli unhappy. But after all, he successfully "convinced" Ge Shouli to help him lobby the officials in the court. Don't let them oppose the implementation of the Examination Law. And nowadays. It was another incident that encountered the Huanghuai flood. This incident happened to give Zhang Juzheng an opportunity. Let him have a chance to try whether the things he and Zhang Fan have spent nearly half a year trying to make work will work.

And there are a lot of worries. One is that although he succeeded in convincing Ge Shouli to help. But the methods he used were really not very good. Now, although Ge Shouli has agreed to help him. At the same time, it is also a belly of resentment. Although it is said that Ge Shouli is a general person. Understand the order of events. But he's not a good guy for no reason. Zhang Ju humiliated him again and again. that he may deceive him. No one will be happy if they change. Ge Shouli was able to help him this time. Not necessarily next time.

And the second thing that made Zhang Juzheng feel sad was. The timing of this flood is a little too embarrassing. On the one hand. It happened quite timely. So that Zhang Juzheng can now have the opportunity to verify the effect of the "Examination Law". If something goes wrong. There's still a lot of time to fix it later.

But on the other hand. The timing of this flood is too coincidental. Almost at the same time that Zhang Juzheng went to Ge Shouli yesterday to "apologize" and ask for his help. The embankment in Henan broke there. This era without developed means of communication. It is impossible for Zhang Ju to know things right away. If it had happened earlier. If he could have known before he went to the Ge Shouli Mansion yesterday. It's a lot easier. He must have told the story along with it. Then let Ge Shouli help him together.

And now. He had already done that to Ge Shouli. He understands too. Ge Shouli now promised to help him. But the heart must be unhappy. Now let him go to Ge Shouli and ask him to help. Let's not say whether Ge Shouli will agree. I'm afraid that even Zhang Juzheng himself may not be able to take the step of going out to Gefu.

Originally. This matter is even if Zhang Juzheng asked Zhang Fan to go. It's not impossible to help him talk or something. And if he says so. Zhang Fan will never refuse. But Zhang Juzheng didn't know what was going on. Maybe it's a bad thing. I feel like there's a ghost in my heart. Or maybe it was after rejecting Zhang Fan's kindness yesterday. He really didn't want to regret it. All in all. This morning, actually. Zhang Ju wanted to talk to Zhang Fan about it more than once. But he never opened his mouth.

Or or. Zhang Juzheng is not because of these reasons at all. He's really thoughtful. I think Zhang Fan is also extremely concerned about this matter. In addition, he had already told Zhang Fan all his plans. Zhang Fan, who is also extremely concerned about this matter, cannot help but think about it.

Maybe. Zhang Juzheng had already expected it. Zhang Fan didn't have to say anything by himself. That's what comes to mind. So he took the initiative to go to Ge Shouli. helped him convince Ge Shouli to help again.

Of course. These things. No one can say. What did Zhang Juzheng think in his heart? No one knows.

But now. It doesn't matter how things really are. But it's irrelevant. Important: Zhang Fan has already made up his mind. I'm going to go to Ge Shouli to help Zhang Juzheng this time.

Now that the purpose has been achieved. Then pass. Or how Zhang Juzheng thinks about it, don't care anymore.

And how did Zhang Fan think in his heart? I'm afraid that even Zhang Fan himself may not be able to figure it out.

Liang Chao and others escorted Zhang Fan to Jinyiwei's yamen. It's not a long distance. But it's not short. But in the midst of this. But so many things happened silently. But it really made these parties a little emotional.

The horses turned a street. Not far ahead. Zhang Fan can already see the yamen. It doesn't look glamorous there. But there is no dark appearance at all. There was no decoration in front of the door. There are no signboards of the yamen. If it weren't for the fact that there were four guards standing in front of the door day and night. It is impossible for ordinary people to regard this place as a yamen. It looks like the courtyard of an ordinary large family. Unremarkable. But it doesn't make people feel shabby.

Of course. Even so. Those ordinary people really can't imagine it. This is a yamen of the famous Jinyi Guard.

Turned around this street corner. The destination of Zhang Fan and the others is about to arrive. And it was at this time. Liang Chao on the side also spoke again.

"Your Excellency."

"What's wrong?" Zhang Fan looked at Liang Chao a little strangely. His tone was a little impatient. It was as if something he had been holding in his heart had erupted. Of course. And so it is.

"I thought about it along the way." Liang Chao said. "Originally, I was humble and saw that adults had something in their hearts. So I'm not going to say it right now. But. I can't help it. ”
