He Ran stopped and turned around to look at Hong Wan and said: "People's temperaments are all kinds of weird, and there are all kinds of weirdos. Maybe what you said is right. The old man just deliberately doesn't want his granddaughter to leave him."
A proud look appeared on Hong'an's face, and she said to Xi Qun: "Did you hear that? Maybe my guess is right!"
"But people should not be too biased in their opinions. The possibility you mentioned is extremely small. As a person, be careful not to be self-righteous. When you have an idea about something, you should repeatedly ask yourself whether what you are thinking is reasonable and whether there are other possibilities."
"Oh." Hong'an's pride disappeared, and the military advisor's words were like denying his guess.
He Ran glanced at Xi Qun, who immediately lowered his head. He had no clue at all. If the military advisor asked questions, he would be embarrassed in front of Hong An.
"My guess is that this Cholang Bow is a shield." He Ran said and turned around.
"Shield? Shield?" Hong An looked at Xi Qun with doubtful eyes.
Xi Qun didn't dare to answer, only curled his lips.
Hong An lowered his head and thought as he walked, and after a while he sighed helplessly.
"Maybe there are two Cholang Bows." Seeing that they couldn't think of anything, He Ran gave some advice.
"Ah?!" Hong An stopped again.
Xi Qun took advantage of Hong'an's absence and whispered anxiously: "What's going on? The military advisor should tell me quickly."
He Ran smiled and scolded: "Go put your head in the pond to calm down. You are really lazy and don't want to use your brain at all. You are much worse than Hong An in this regard."
Xi Qun grinned and said, "I really can't think of it. The more I think about it, the more confused I become."
"That's because you don't want to calm down and think about it!"
"Hey, I can't calm down. I don't dare to think deeply about this guard military advisor who can't see in all directions and hear in all directions."
He Ran could appreciate his loyalty and whispered: "If my guess is correct, there are two Choi Lang Bows. When Master Yuan Yin or the little granddaughter are dissatisfied with the visitor, they will take out the one and no one can pull it.
When you are satisfied with the visitor, you will take out a bow that is easy to draw, do you understand?"
"Oh! Hey, it's that simple?!" Xi Qun suddenly realized.
“It’s so simple that you can’t even guess it!”
"Hehe, if the military advisor points it out, it will be nothing. If I had to guess it myself, I wouldn't be able to figure it out in ten days and a half."
"This is just a guess. Only Master Yuanyin knows the actual situation."
"The military advisor's guess will never be wrong. The more I think about it, the more correct it becomes. I dare to guarantee this with my life!" Xi Qun was extremely impressed.
He Ran lectured: "What did I just say? As a person, you must not be self-righteous. Before the facts are known, no speculation can be believed."
"Yes, I remember." Xi Qun said, turning to wave to Hong An, who was still standing not far away and thinking hard, with a proud look on his face.
Arriving at the palace, He Ran explained his arrangements for Dongfang Ao to Chen Min. Chen Min said politely: "This... is not a day or two away. To be honest with the military advisor, I have arranged everything down below, General Dongfang Ao."
It’s Wu Kui.”
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I'd better leave this Wu Kui to the people under my control. Your Majesty, there is no need to be polite."
Chen Min was very grateful to He Ran for doing this and thanked him repeatedly.
After making arrangements for Dongfang Ao, he went out of the palace to see Hongkong'er, the envoy of King Fan. It happened that the little princess was also here. When the little princess saw him, she said anxiously: "Can mother and brother Wang come? I want to see him.
They, you promised me."
He Ran had a headache and advised: "Don't you already know everything? The road is not stable, so you should wait patiently."
"No! You must keep your promise to me. If they can't come, then I will go to the prairie with you!" the little princess said with an extremely firm expression.
Hongkong'er and others also tried to persuade her, but the little princess refused to listen. In the end, she said with tears in her eyes: "Please take me into custody, otherwise I must go!"
He Ran could sympathize with her mood. Seeing Hongkong and Hanako who couldn't help but gnash his teeth, this matter was really difficult. Could it be possible that she should really be put under house arrest? It would be too unpleasant to spread this news. He could see that Hongkong and the others
His expression was also shaken. If he insisted on not taking her with him because of concerns about her safety, these people would probably become suspicious.
After thinking for a long time, He Ran said helplessly: "Okay, but you have to make an oath to the great god Jian Ting to come back immediately after seeing them."
"Okay! I promise!" The little princess immediately knelt down and swore happily, with an extremely pious expression.
He Ran said to Hongkong'er and others: "You must help me when the time comes. I brought her here under the entrustment of Military Advisor Shi. Military Advisor Shi and I are brothers. We must keep our promises to our friends."
Without waiting for the little princess to translate, the interpreter brought by Hongkong'er translated He Ran's words. Prairie men value brotherhood the most. They all knew about the love between the little princess and Shi Junshi, and they all nodded after hearing this.
The little princess was happy now that her wish had been fulfilled, and she diligently interpreted on the side while He Ran was discussing with Hongkong'er.
When He Ran returned home, Zhao Long, the envoy of Zhao State who came to see him, had been waiting for a long time. He was just paying a courtesy visit, and of course he wanted to get some information. None of the kings and ministers of Zhao State expected that He Ran would come to participate in the founding of Xiang State.
At the grand ceremony, when this country was falling apart, He Ran's visit to Xiang State, which was next to Fan State, could not help but arouse Zhao Long's suspicion.
After seeing the ceremony and sitting down at the table, Zhao Long said with a smile: "The fact that the military advisor came to watch the ceremony in person has given Prince Xiang a lot of face. We didn't expect that."
He Ran sighed and said: "I never thought about coming, it's just because Qi Lan doesn't want to settle down. Our king has considered that if the two families get into trouble, the people will suffer from military disasters, so he sent me to break it down."
, I don’t know when I will be able to survive this hard life.”
Zhao Long said with a smile: "King Yi is really a benevolent monarch, and the military advisor is too wise and capable. Only the military advisor with such prestige can resolve this kind of thing with one word. I guess it must have been dealt with properly."
He Ran breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life, but I will have to work harder, sir."
"Oh? What the military advisor is referring to..." Zhao Long asked puzzledly.
"Qi Lan will establish a country in a few days. Your Excellency, please send someone to repay King Zhao. I think King Zhao will definitely let you come to watch the ceremony. Isn't this tiring your hard work?"
"Oh! Hahaha, that's it. It's gratifying that Yi State has added another vassal state. No matter how hard you work, you will be willing to do this. Yi and Zhao are as close as brothers, and the joy of Yi State is like ours.
Hi, I will send someone to report this good news to the king when I get back. I will send my congratulations to the military advisor first." Zhao Long is worthy of being a veteran minister who has been socializing for a long time. Although he is anxious and hateful in his heart, his words are very appropriate.
"Thank you very much. I, the State of Yi, can be regarded as half-master here. If you have any dissatisfaction during this period, please tell me. He Ran will personally serve you."
"Don't you dare! This is what the military advisor said about how you can be a worthy official. In this case, I can serve you longer by your side and receive more teachings from my military advisor. It's a great honor for me to serve as an official."
He Ran waved his hands with a smile and said: "I can't stand the climate here, it's so cold that my nose could freeze off. I'll go back as soon as the ceremony here is over. Qi Lan will definitely not go there. If he blames me, just blame me."
"
Zhao Long smiled knowingly and said: "Who dares to blame the military advisor? Haha, the military advisor is really a casual person. Looking at the world, there are only a few ministers who can do as they please like the military advisor. We mediocre people can only suffer this hardship.
I really envy the military advisor."
The two talked and laughed for a while, and Zhao Long stood up to leave. He was eager to send back the news about Qi Lan's founding of the country.
