As for how Shusun Bao should take advantage of the situation after returning to the Lu Kingdom, the Ji family decided to make a plan. After the three people discussed it, Li Ran asked Han Hu to send someone to send Shusun Bao back to the Lu camp.
However, Han Hu found it very strange:
"By sending someone to send Dr. Shusun back like this, isn't it telling Ji's ears and eyes that Dr. Shusun has already discussed and made a decision with you?"
After all, Li Ran brought Shusun Bao to Zheng Guo's residence in order to prevent Ji's eyes and ears from knowing what they were discussing.
At this time, if Zheng Guo was to blatantly send his uncle Sun Bao back, it would inevitably lead to people not thinking about it. Will there be any unexpected effect then?
"Haha, this is a plan to avert the enemy's attention!"
"If we don't let them know, how can they take action?"
"Now that Ji Sun Yiru is in charge of the Ji family, he has little knowledge and his plans will be full of flaws! Wouldn't it be better for Dr. Shusun if he could get more clues?"
If you want to deal with Ji Sun Yiru, you must first make Ji Sun Yiru move.
Only in this way can we find the flaw and hit it with one strike!
This is actually part of his plan. Of course, if Ji Sun Yiru can really keep his composure, or if Ji Sun Yiru can see a little further than before after being pointed out by Shu Niu, then what will happen next
Development, I'm afraid it's hard to say.
Of course, Han Hu knew that Li Ran was thoughtful and had every plan. However, he was still a little worried. And what he was worried about was still the safety of his country, Zheng:
"It is said that behind the Shu Niu, there are also people from Qi who support him. If the Ji family has colluded with the Qi people, and there is a Shu Niu, how will we deal with it?"
Yes, what he was worried about was not the Ji family, but the Qi people.
Although Qi has not had much movement in recent years, and only occasionally rubbed fists with Jin, but in the eyes of Zheng Guo, Qi can still be called a great country.
Just like the last time Qi State's grain truck was robbed, Qi State Tian Ruju came to ask for someone, and the whole Zheng State could only take the "suspect" Li Ran away honestly.
After all, the gap in hard power is there, and neither Hanhu nor Zichan can turn a blind eye to it.
"If you are in charge of the country, please relax, there will be no problem in the future. Now there is Dr. Yan Ying in Qi to assist the Marquis of Qi. Even if the young people in the country want to take action, I am afraid it will be difficult for them to do so for a while."
"And the State of Lu is the key to the game between the State of Qi and the State of Jin, so as long as the State of Lu can obtain Antai, then our State of Zheng will be fine."
The wonderful thing about the Spring and Autumn Period is that the struggle of any small country is likely to affect the situation of the entire world.
Even though the internal strife in the Lu Kingdom may seem like a minor matter, once it escalates to the point where Qi and Jin are competing against each other, it becomes a major issue.
This is just like the internal fighting in the Zheng Kingdom. Similarly, it often reflects the ebb and flow of the Jin and Chu countries.
Therefore, Zheng's assistance to Lu at this time can be said to be of great benefit to stabilizing the current international situation and helping Jin to check and balance Qi and Chu.
…
Let’s go back to Prince Chu’s side.
The next day, Wang Ziwei arrived at Zheng Guo's residence with the betrothal gift. (At that time, the betrothal gift was not only used for marriage proposals)
As it happened, Han Hu went to Zhao Wu's place to say goodbye. Therefore, Li Ran and Chu Dang stayed in their tents to rest in Zheng Guo's camp.
When Chu Dang heard that the prince was coming, he thought that the prince was here to arrest Li Ran, so he immediately picked up the guy and walked out. But Li Ran hurriedly stopped him.
"gentlemen?"
Chu Dang still looked at him doubtfully.
Li Ran immediately said angrily:
"Don't copy someone if you don't agree with them. You don't even know what they are doing, so you are ready to take action. Wouldn't it be rude?"
"Today I'll teach you a lesson. If something can be solved with words, it's best not to do anything. If you use knives and guns all day long, what should you do if you hurt yourself? Even if you can't hurt yourself, what if you hurt these flowers and plants? Okay."
"God has the virtue of good life..."
"..."
Li Ran hadn't finished learning Boss Tang's words, but Chu Dang was almost asleep over there.
At this time, Wang Ziwei and everyone were already waiting outside Zheng Guo's camp.
Li Ran hurried out of the camp to greet him, and after greeting him, he politely invited him into the tent.
"I don't know what the reason for your visit today is."
"Come on, lift it up."
The prince did not hide the gifts, and with a wave of his hand, he took out all the gifts he had brought.

sp; In the blink of an eye, three large boxes were placed in front of Li Ran.
After the guard opened it, he saw three large boxes full of rare treasures, which almost blinded Li Ran.
After all, Li Ran was in charge of the accounts of the Ji family and worked as a butler, so he only made a rough estimate of these rare treasures. These three boxes of things should be worth as much as three people in Dayi, Zheng State. Year’s taxes are due!
If compared with the Ji clan, which is the richest in the world, Wang Ziwei's casual move is equivalent to the in and out flow of the Ji clan for about half a year.
Therefore, these days, using power to make money is still more powerful than using other means to make money!
However, Li Ran is not an ignorant person. Whether it was him "before time travel" or his experience as the head of the Ji family, he has long been immune to this kind of wealth.
In the words of someone from later generations: Now he actually has no interest in "money". He is now only interested in how to "spend money".
Of course, Li Ran suddenly understood Wang Ziwei's intention of coming today.
"Ziming, there are some things that I will not say any more."
"As long as you say a word, my future glory and wealth will be all wrapped up in my body, Xiong Wei. Keeping Ziming is inexhaustible for you! How about it?"
He, who is about to become the new King of Chu, does have the confidence to say this. However, compared with the wealthy Zheng State, their Chu State wants to show off with the Zheng merchants who have been in business for decades, but they are still a little behind. mean.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Of course, it is obvious that for Chu State, this is actually quite a feat.
It can be seen that in order to recruit Li Ran, Wang Ziwei has made great efforts this time.
"Thank you very much for your kindness. However, money is not what you want."
Li Ran's answer was also very simple and clear.
If he really needed money to support his life, I'm afraid he wouldn't be just a little Zheng Guoxing now.
"Haha, it's natural, Zi Ming is righteous!"
Unexpectedly, Wang Ziwei was not angry when he heard this. Instead, he praised Li Ran. He continued:
"It's just Ziming, have you thought about it? If you only stay in the small country of Zheng, how can you use your talents?"
"Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and all people with lofty ideals would like to assist Mingjun and dominate the world. Is it possible that Ziming has never thought of this in his heart?"
"The State of Zheng is just a small country, a tiny place. From the rulers to the common people, everyone has no ambition at all. Even Zichan is like this! Therefore, if Ziming only succumbs to the State of Zheng,
, If you can’t do your best if you don’t have the talent, and if you can’t fully stretch your ambition, why bother?”
Since money is not your ambition, let’s not talk about adding more money. But having the world in mind should be your ambition, right?
Unexpectedly, Li Ran sighed again, shook his head and replied:
"Your Majesty Yin praised it, but what I have learned in my life are all Zhou rites."
"The so-called rituals educate and educate the world and discipline all living beings, and educate and educate the world and discipline all living beings. What does it mean? It is nothing more than peace in the world and all the people living in peace. The princes are related as brothers, and the ministers are surrounded by relatives and friends. There is no more
Disturbed by war, the world will be at peace."
The words were beautiful, but Li Ran knew that this was actually not his intention...c0m
In fact, he did not agree with using simple Zhou rites to govern the world, or in other words, it was not what the world understood as "Zhou rites".
The true "Zhou Li" is actually all-encompassing. Sometimes it is gentle and elegant, sometimes it is thunderous. Sometimes it is peaceful and peaceful, and sometimes it becomes dangerous. It can be strong, soft, virtuous, or solemn.
"Zhou Li" never says that this is right or that is wrong, nor does it say that it can bring order to the world. It is more like an outsider who only tells the world what kind of people should be treated under certain circumstances.
How to do it.
As the living fossil of "Zhou Li", he knows this most clearly.
What's more, if Zhou Li can really be used to rule the world, how could the world collapse to such an extent?
So, as Li Ran himself believed, since Zhou Li actually had no ability to govern the world, why did he use this as an excuse to openly reject the prince's siege?
Just because this is the most appropriate and legitimate reason at the moment.
After all, all the princes in the world are still ministers of Zhou, and Zhou rites are the foundation for maintaining the world.
Although the world's rituals and music have gradually collapsed, as the former Luoyi Shoushi Shi, he adheres to the creed of "Zhou Rites governs the world", which is his duty in the eyes of outsiders.
As soon as these words came out, Wang Ziwei's face immediately turned from sunny to gloomy, and instantly darkened.
Obviously, Li Ran's words touched his nerves. Because the Chu people, the most unreasonable and the most disadvantaged, are the so-called Zhou Rites!
