Shuniu, who had exhausted all his tricks, was naturally unwilling to fail, and finally punched out the last punch.
"Sir, what you mean is that the Qi State grain truck was robbed, also to frame the blame on you?"
Sun Wu heard what Li Ran said so much, so he took it for granted.
"Well, that's exactly it."
This is actually not difficult to understand, because if Shu Niu's most wanted goal in this whole matter is to get rid of Li Ran, then seeing that the previous plan has gone bankrupt and failed, he can naturally only use this to
The opportunity comes to give it a last try.
And it was his move that allowed Li Ran to completely confirm some kind of internal connection between Shu Niu and Qi State.
"At the beginning, I asked Dr. Shuxiang about his plan. Logically, only Dr. Shuxiang and I should know about this matter. Even Dr. Shusun of Lu State had no idea about it. Therefore, the only person who could leak this matter was
It’s from Qi State.”
"If Shu Niu hadn't colluded with Qi, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to find out such a secret. You must know that Qi's aid to Weiguo in food was the result of secret negotiations between Jin and Qi. Jin didn't want to lose its hegemony.
Because of his status, he sent his uncle Xiang Dafu to join Qi Dynasty and secretly persuaded the Marquis of Qi."
"But for some unknown reason, this matter was actually found out by Shu Niu who was far away in Zheng State. This further proves that there are also his minions in Qi State. Or...this Shu Niu itself was placed in Zheng State.
Minions!"
"And when this series of plans end in bankruptcy, then the only way Shu Niu can frame me is to manipulate Qi's grain trucks."
In fact, Li Ran once thought whether it was his uncle who leaked the news?
However, based on his understanding of Shu Xiang and his usual style, it is definitely not something he can do.
Therefore, the final suspect can only be the vertical bull.
"Qi's grain truck?..."
He was naturally able to think about the information Owl Wing found out immediately.
"If he wants to do this, it is indeed very possible. However, there is still a question here. That is, if he acts like this, how can he put the blame on your husband? After all, it is tens of thousands of stones of food.
, who is not jealous? Why is it that Mr. is the only one who is subject to this suspicion?"
"Well, Owl Yi asked a good question, but we still don't know who was responsible for the robbery of the Qi State grain truck this time, but..."
"I think this person coming in from the outside will be able to give us an answer."
After Li Ran finished speaking, he led everyone back to the courtyard to wait, as if he was waiting for someone...
When Sun Wu, Chu Dang, and Ou Yi saw this, they didn't know why, so they just followed Li Ran and waited.
As expected, not long after, the attendants in the courtyard came to report in a hurry, saying that the old sect leader and Dr. Zichan came to visit.
"Haha, look, isn't this coming?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Xian and Zi Chan were seen walking side by side. Both of them had a look of worry on their faces. Apparently they had also received the news that Qi Guo's grain truck had been robbed.
When the two of them entered the courtyard, Li Ran was about to see the ceremony, but unexpectedly Ji Xian waved his sleeves and said:
"No need."
It can be seen that Ji Xian is a little angry, and his eyebrows are filled with sullen expression.
"Doctor Zichan?"
"Oh, Zi Ming, did you hear any news?"
Zichan was still very polite and asked after sitting down.
Li Ran nodded and didn't say much.
Seeing that Li Ran already knew, Zichan went straight to the point and said:
"The State of Qi has sent envoys here to ask us, the State of Zheng, to hand you over to them. But I think there must be something fishy about this matter, so I came here to ask the reason and to ask you what will happen next.
What’s your plan?”
His tone sounded very calm, without any disturbance.
But after he finished speaking, Sun Wudun, who was standing beside him, was so anxious that he couldn't help but said anxiously:
"Doctor Zichan..."
"I am now questioning your master!"
No one expected that Zichan, who had always been gentle and gentle, would suddenly become angry.
As soon as Sun Wu's words came out of his mouth, Zichan looked at him sharply and blocked the second half of Sun Wu's words.
It seemed that this matter was really serious, so serious that even his son had to personally deal with it.
Because it is obvious that if this matter is not handled properly, Zheng Guo will fall into another crisis.
Zichan probably never dreamed that he was doing a righteous deed with a benevolent heart, but now he would cause so much trouble for no reason.
"What the doctor is referring to is the robbery of Qi's grain truck?"
In the huge courtyard, Li Ran still maintained his usual calm demeanor, and did not change in any way from the angry expression of his parents and the sullen expression of the ancestors.
He is like an outsider, always facing it with the calmest attitude.
"Exactly."
"The State of Qi has now obtained evidence. The warriors who robbed the grain carts were wearing armor and the weapons in their hands were engraved with the word 'sheep's tongue'. Moreover, according to several soldiers who were lucky enough to escape back to Qi State, the warriors who robbed the grain carts were
The leader is called 'Master Li'."
"You said earlier that you were responsible for transporting grain from the State of Qi to help the country. Now that the grain trucks of the State of Qi have been hijacked, the evidence is so conclusive. Now the envoys from the State of Qi have arrived in Zhengyi, asking us to give them the goods of the State of Qi.
An explanation."
As Zichan spoke, he calmed down again and told Li Ran all the information he already knew without reservation.
The priest on the side heard the sound first and looked at him intently, the sullen look on his eyebrows gradually turning into worry.
In fact, whether it was to sacrifice Xian or Zichan, they all understood that Li Ran could not rob Qi's grain truck. This incident was obviously deliberately framed by someone behind the scenes.
It's just that what Zichan needs to consider is the relationship between Zheng and Qi, and what Ji needs to consider first is the honor and disgrace of the entire Ji clan.
Therefore, they cannot give Li Ran more help in this matter. Li Ran needs to explain everything by himself.
What Zichan said just now is not so much a confrontation with Li Ran, but rather telling Li Ran all the details of the matter, and then letting Li Ran find a way to find out the flaws on his own.
The engravings on the soldiers' armor and the names the warriors gave to their leaders are all solid testimony. Qi brought this set of things to Zheng to ask for Li Ran. What could Zheng do? In the end, it still depends on how Li Ran behaves.
Played.
"By the way, let me tell you one more thing. The State of Qi has also sent people to the State of Jin. Doctor Sheeptongue has flatly denied the matter. Naturally, the State of Qi has nothing to do with him, so..."
"So Qi can only vent its anger on Ran."
Li Ran spread his hands and smiled.
Yes, when the State of Qi had nothing to do with the sheep's tongue, they could only vent their anger on Li Ran.
The grain truck was robbed and tens of thousands of stones of grain were missing. No matter who leaked the news or who did it, there had to be someone to take the blame, and there had to be someone to let the entire Qi State vent their anger.<
/p>
This person is Li Ran right now.
And this is exactly what Li Ran didn't mention just now, why "he" was framed and not anyone else.
