"Zhang Aiqing, are you ...... What are you talking about," the first person to speak was Empress Dowager Li, and although the others did not speak, they also looked at Zhang Fan with a surprised expression, as if he had said something big.

And Zhang Fan, who is the focus at the moment, is very calm on his face, he understands very well in his heart, and knows what he said, so that the people present will have such a big reaction, and obviously, Zhang Fan is not worried about this.

The reason for the surprise is very simple, it is because of the last sentence that Zhang Fan said, the sentence "When those people recruited Zhang Siwei to do it", that day, that is, the day after the incident, Zhang Fan and Feng Bao talked about this matter in front of hundreds of officials, and when they talked about this matter in front of hundreds of officials, they did not say this, nor did they mention anything related to Zhang Siwei, and now when he said this, it was obvious that he was saying that he had known it before, but he did not say it, if this is really investigated, it can be regarded as the crime of bullying the king.

And Feng Bao didn't have the slightest worry about Zhang Fan saying this, after all, Zhang Fan's words were very clear just now, Feng Bao was also present at the time, that is to say, Feng Bao also knew about this matter, so Zhang Fan said that there was no news at that time, but Feng Bao was silent, obviously he and Zhang Fan were both offenders, but now Feng Bao is not worried about this.

"Queen Mother," Zhang Fan said with a calm face and without panic, "At that time, Weichen did ask Zhang Siwei's name from the mouths of those people, but, firstly, when Weichen asked them if they had evidence, they said no, since there is no evidence, then they can't talk nonsense, and secondly, it is impossible for Weichen to say this matter so arbitrarily just by relying on these words and half-words, and there is no evidence, not to mention how Zhang Siwei is a person, although he is recuperating at home at the moment, But he is indeed a court official, if he is punished just by relying on these rumors, or if he is investigated, it will inevitably hurt the hearts of other officials in the court, the reason why Wechen postponed and did not report is not because of favoritism, but really wants to figure things out, and then make a decision, so as to show fairness, now, Feng Gonggong has taken out evidence, but it is different from what those people said at that time, so Wechen has to ask to understand,"

Empress Dowager Li is not an arbitrary person, after listening to Zhang Fan's explanation, the shock at the beginning slowly subsided, and was replaced by a kind of calm thinking, she was thinking carefully, what Zhang Fan said just now, should be investigated, or should be appropriate.

And Zhang Juzheng, who already knew why on the side, didn't say anything, but Ge Shouli had already heard something, it stands to reason that Zhang Fan would not do this, even if he was a good person, even if he had morality in his heart, even if he still had a lot of righteousness when he was in the world, but in the final analysis, he was also the commander of Jinyiwei.

What Zhang Fan said, if it is placed on an ordinary minister, or a minister like him, it can make sense, but on the body of Zhang Fan, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, it makes no sense at all, the Jinyi Guard, in the final analysis, it is the emperor's personal guard, and their task, although there is no explicit provision, is actually to eliminate any threat that may arise to the emperor.

In this way, there is no definite and uncertain problem for Jinyiwei, as long as there is any possibility of chasing the wind and catching shadows, they will definitely investigate it clearly, but in this matter, Zhang Fan did this, which clearly shows that there is a problem here, and only by thinking about it can we explain why Zhang Fan would not ask, and only by thinking about it like this can we explain why not only Zhang Fan, but even Feng Bao did not make any moves.

Ge Shouli thought of this, but his lack of understanding of many things made him unable to figure out what happened to make the two of them like this, but no matter what it was, this is finally a good thing, Zhang Fan did not immediately investigate Zhang Siwei, maybe because he understood something, but Feng Bao did not move, so it was definitely because of Zhang Fan.

Anyway, Ge Shouli could also see that Feng Bao wanted to investigate this matter very much, after all, there were many people in the court who knew about the matter between him and Zhang Siwei, but Feng Bao was also dragged on by Zhang Fan for so many days, so he was naturally grateful to Zhang Fan.

It's just that now that this matter has been said, Ge Shouli, who heard this matter, naturally thought of a question in front of him, why, after such an awkward quarrel between Feng Bao and Zhang Siwei for such a short time, such an incident happened, and everything was precisely directed at Zhang Siwei, which was not clear if it gave Feng Bao an excellent chance to get off the phone.

Of course, this cannot be ruled out as a coincidence, this kind of thing is not only in history, but only in the Ming Dynasty, which was founded for more than 100 years, and has encountered many more coincidental things than this, but many people do not believe in the existence of such a coincidence, in the eyes of these people, there must be an inevitability behind the coincidence.

Ge Shouli is the one who stands in the middle of the two parties, he understands the importance of necessity, but he does not object to the factors that will be brought about by coincidence, but now this matter in front of him is really a bit too much coincidence, this Feng Bao and Zhang Siwei just had a trouble, and then this flood came, and then this Zhang Siwei stood in such a disadvantageous position now, not to mention inevitable, in Ge Shouli's view, there should be something hidden.

And what makes Ge Shouli think even more is that he understands Zhang Siwei's personality, and not only him, but also many people in the court understand that although Zhang Siwei is not an official now, his reputation for being honest and honest is also well-known in the court.

However, the problem is that even those officials with bad deeds, when they do this kind of thing, they will not hit the people with their ideas, and they are these people who have just had an accident, and besides, the riots of the people are in the capital, which is no different from rebellion, let alone Zhang Siwei, and other people will not do it.

And this is exactly what it is, although Ge Shouli will suspect that Feng Bao is behind this whole thing, but he can't confirm it, he thinks that Feng Bao will not do this, inciting the people to rebel and achieve his own method of clearing away political enemies, which is really the most effective way.

If it is done, and it is not known to others, it is easy to say, but if this matter is pierced, it will be more than worth the loss, not to mention that you can't bring down others, even if you are knocked down, that person will be saved because of this matter, not to mention, you yourself have to bear the name of committing trouble, and it is normal to lose your life.

In Ge Shouli's opinion, Feng Bao shouldn't be so crazy, but all he has is this wishful thinking, he hasn't seen what Feng Bao is like yet, and in fact, even Zhang Fan and Zhang Juzheng, who know a lot about Feng Bao now, didn't believe that Feng Bao would do such a thing at first, but when they found out that Feng Bao did it, they didn't feel too surprised.

"This ...... The mourning family understood," Empress Dowager Li thought for a long time after listening to Zhang Fan's words, and then she said, "Although it is indeed inappropriate to say that it is not appropriate to do this, but this kind of news is too shocking at first sound, even if you don't believe it, it's nothing, it's not bad for Zhang Qing's family to do this, if Zhang Siwei is checked just on the basis of this matter, and the problem has not been found, I am afraid that the people of the court will be panicked,"

"Thank you, Queen Mother," Zhang Fan said.

"However," Empress Dowager Li continued, "now that there is evidence, whether it is true or not, we can't sit idly by,"

"What the Queen Mother said, Weichen understands," Zhang Fan said, and then looked at Feng Bao on the side, "Because of this, Weichen just wants to ask his father-in-law, what is going on, obviously it was said at that time, this letter should have been burned, why is it found now,"

"This matter does sound a little incredible, but it is very simple to explain," in the face of Zhang Fan's question, Feng Bao was not a little flustered, and said, "Lord Zhang, please think about it, if you stand in the position of those eight people and look at this kind of thing, will you burn that letter?"

"Naturally not," Zhang Fan didn't think about it, and said directly, "If it's me, if I want to do this kind of thing against the imperial court, and it must be a capital crime, I must have to think of a way out, if it's like now, these people are caught by the imperial court, and if they refuse to confess, they will definitely fall to the ground, so keep this letter and explain who the culprit is, maybe it will be impossible to let them out, at least they can save their lives,"

"Yes, that's exactly what reason," Feng Bao nodded, and said, "After those people confessed Zhang Siwei's name before, I ordered someone to ask again, and I asked for this letter, it turned out that they said that it was burned, just because they were not tortured at that time, and now as long as they use a little means, they will also recruit it, this letter has been hidden by them, and now it has been found,"

When everyone heard this, they all looked like this.

And Zhang Fan's concern is not these, but ......

"Execution," Zhang Fan suddenly asked, "Father-in-law has tortured those people,"
