Chapter 668: Calm down
Zhang Fan wanted to punish these people, some of them really wanted to help Xiangmei get justice, and in addition, he just wanted to make Feng Bao uncomfortable, but Zhang Fan also understood that Feng Bao would not watch this kind of thing happen.
Sure enough, on the torture instrument, at the moment when he was about to start the execution, the man shouted to stop and said that he was willing to speak out, and Feng Bao also took advantage of this time to stop.
"Father-in-law's meaning Zhang Fan understood," in the face of Feng Bao's stop, Zhang Fan did not show any surprise or dissatisfaction, but turned his head and said to Feng Bao in a persuasive way, "Zhang Fan also knows that the queen mother in the palace is waiting for news, but I am just afraid, so I stopped in such a hurry, and if I didn't give them some color to see, I think they still think that we don't dare to do anything to them, and what Zhang Fan is worried about is not these, but afraid that these people will make some false news to fool us,"
"Well," nodded, Feng Bao said that he understood what Zhang Fan meant, but obviously, he didn't plan to stop there, "Our family also understands what Lord Zhang means, but now, these people have been caught by us, and they can't escape, let's listen to what they can say first, in case there is really any news, it will be good, and even if it is found out in the future, what they said is false, then it is not too late for us to come and greet them,"
Speaking of this, Feng Bao saw that Zhang Fan seemed to want to say something, but he ignored it, but turned his head to look at the eight people opposite, and said: "Wait for our family to hear clearly, if you have anything to say, quickly say it to our family, but if you let our family find out that you are deliberately deceiving, don't say that our family, even Lord Zhang can't let you go, when the time comes, hum ......"
"Yes, the villain understands," said the man, with a pale countenance.
The others on the side, his accomplices, all looked unconvinced, some shouted that he couldn't speak, and some scolded angrily.
"Shut up other people's mouths for our family," Feng Bao said with a look of unbearable expression, and then turned to the man and said, "As long as you say it, if our family thinks it is reliable, let you go, and let you enjoy the delicious food and drink, I think you haven't eaten all day, but if you let our family find out something deceitful, hmph, don't complain about the ruthlessness of our subordinates,"
"Yes, yes, the villain understands," the man hurriedly made a clear appearance, "The villain swears to the sky, what he said is true, and there is absolutely no deception,"
"Hmm," nodded as Feng Bao spoke, "Say it,"
"Yes," the man took a breath, and then he spoke, "I waited for a few people to come here to make trouble, and it was indeed as the two adults said, someone asked us to do this," this person is also a good plan, or said that he is well prepared, but at this time, he still pretends not to know Feng Bao, obviously the eunuch's clothes are so obvious, and Feng Bao calls himself "our family", but he still pretends not to know Feng Bao at all.
"Sure enough," Feng Bao heard him say this, and he looked like he was really like this, and asked, "Tell me quickly, who is it?"
"Yes...... It's the servant of the Ministry of Officials, Zhang Siwei who is in charge of Zhan Shifu, Lord Zhang," the man said with a look of great determination, with a somewhat stumbling look.
"What are you talking about," Feng Bao, who heard this, made an incredulous look, "You said Zhang Siwei,"
"That's right, it's Lord Zhang Siwei," the man nodded, expressing affirmation, "Actually, I've already told the adult about these things, and this Master Zhang's subordinate next to him,"
"Lord Zhang, what's going on," Hearing this, Feng Bao immediately turned his head to look at Zhang Fan, with shock in his eyes, but more suspicion, "Since Lord Zhang already knows, why didn't he tell our family?"
When Zhang Fan heard this, he couldn't help but curse in his heart, but he had been thinking about a solution because he had been pressed by the matter before, but he didn't think of this stubble, Zhang Siwei's matter, these people had already told him, and now they told Feng Bao that they already knew, isn't this tantamount to telling Feng Bao that it is very likely that he already knows his plan and wants to destroy it.
But even at this time, Zhang Fan still had no intention of giving up: "Father-in-law, the matter is not what the father-in-law thinks, and it is not that Zhang Fan has any other thoughts and deliberately conceals it,"
"Then ......" Feng Bao was also a little puzzled when he heard Zhang Fan say this, and couldn't help asking.
"Indeed, just as this person said, Zhang Siwei's matter, he did tell my subordinates, and I also heard about it," Zhang Fan explained, "It's just that Zhang Fan is really unsure in his heart, and he suspects that this news is likely to be false, after all, Zhang Siwei's personality is understandable to all the people, including his father-in-law, it is impossible for him to do such a thing,"
"But......" Feng Bao wanted to say something, but looking at Zhang Fan's appearance, he immediately changed his way and said, "Lord Zhang, you haven't been in the court for a day or two, and you understand the affairs of the court, especially since the death of the first emperor and the panic level, how many people in the court want to be unfavorable to our family, and I think Lord Zhang also understands,"
"This is natural," Zhang Fan said, although he said so, but in his heart he also disagreed, after all, so many people can't get along with Feng Bao, isn't it all because Feng Bao made it himself, forcing them to do that.
"In this way, presumably Master Zhang also knows about the matter between Zhang Siwei and our family," Feng Bao said, "In this way, doesn't he have a reason to deal with our family?"
"Of course I understand this in my heart," Zhang Fan said, "But, father-in-law, that Zhang Siwei does have some gaps with his father-in-law, although there are not many rumors about the previous things in the court, but they can be regarded as the whole dynasty knows everything," what Zhang Fan said was naturally Feng Bao's desire to be knighted, and Zhang Siwei tried to block it.
"But......" Zhang Fan didn't wait for Feng Bao to speak, then continued, "After that, the father-in-law didn't succeed, and it should be Zhang Siwei who should be proud, although now, others are not in the court, but it is also because of the recurrence of his old illness and his return to recuperate, which has nothing to do with his father-in-law, in this case, does this Zhang Siwei still have a reason to deal with his father-in-law like this, plus, this kind of thing, thinking about it, he Zhang Siwei is not stupid, he doesn't know how much chaos this kind of thing will happen, and Zhang Fan thinks, He is not that kind of person, so after Zhang Fan heard the news, he decided that what they said was false, and this is why he didn't tell his father-in-law."
"Hmm......" Listening to Zhang Fan's words, Feng Bao made a thoughtful look, but Zhang Fan understood that he was just pretending, he was not thinking about this question at all, but thinking about how to convince himself.
"What Lord Zhang said is good," Feng Bao said, "However, there are some things that Lord Zhang doesn't know about, so he thinks so,"
"What does my father-in-law mean," Zhang Fan asked, he also wanted to hear what Feng Bao had planned.
"After that incident......," Feng Bao said, "After that incident, although our family's wish was not fulfilled, we also knew that we were at a loss, so we no longer planned to meet that four-dimensional general, but after that, our family didn't plan to trouble him, but he took the initiative to find it,"
"Oh," Hearing Feng Bao say this, Zhang Fan was very interested, of course, this is very likely to be just something that Feng Bao himself made up randomly, but it may also be a true thing, after all, what kind of virtue Zhang Siwei is, he also knows something, so if he really does it, Zhang Fan will not feel strange.
"Our family didn't want to worry about him, but he was energetic," Feng Bao said this, his expression was slightly excited, "That Zhang Siwei doesn't know what to do, what kind of oath is not compatible with our family, our family didn't take it seriously at the beginning, but now it seems that it may not be the case,"
"This ......" Zhang Fan didn't expect Feng Bao to say such a thing, to be honest, this remark, whether it was compiled by Feng Bao or true, it is possible, after all, according to Zhang Siwei's old-fashioned personality and stubborn way of doing things, it is not surprising that he would do this.
It's just that in this way, Zhang Fan can't refute Feng Bao's words.
"But ......," Feng Bao suddenly said, "If Lord Zhang says this, our family is not sure,"
"Father-in-law, what does this mean," Zhang Fan was at once, but he didn't know what Feng Bao's idea was at all.
"Master Zhang, don't misunderstand," Feng Bao said with a smile, but with a bit of fierceness in his expression, "What our family means, he said that it was Zhang Siwei, our family believes, in our family's opinion, Zhang Siwei doesn't matter what he is like on weekdays, but if he does this kind of thing in order to deal with our family, our family will also believe it, but if it is found out in the end, if it is not Zhang Siwei who did it, our family will also believe it,"
"What does the father-in-law mean......" Zhang Fan asked, "I will have to talk to the Queen Mother later, if it wasn't for Zhang Siwei's doing, then we wouldn't be able to change our words, then wouldn't we have wronged a good person?"
"Well," Feng Bao nodded, and said, "This matter is not to worry about Lord Zhang, our family has its own opinions, when the time comes, don't mention Zhang Siwei to the Queen Mother, just say that you have a clue, and now the troubled times outside have long been calmed down, I think the Queen Mother can sleep peacefully, and then we are investigating this matter thoroughly to see who did it,"
Hearing this, Zhang Fan was also a little relieved, he turned his head, looked at the person, and said, "I believe what you said, but I still have a question to ask you,"
