Ji Xian's doubts are not unreasonable. Even if Li Ran suspects that there is a spy among the guards, how can he prove that the spy was sent by Shu Niu?
Li Ran heard the sound, thought for a moment, and finally turned his attention to Ji Le.
In the other courtyard, when Li Ran asked Sun Wu and Owl Wings to monitor the cow, Ji Le had doubted this. Now this question still needs Ji Le to answer.
"Dad..."
Sacrifice music seems a bit difficult.
After all, he is her eldest brother, and it is related to the family honor of the Ji clan. Once some things are completely revealed, it will be an unbearable shame.
"Tell me, now that things have happened, what else can I do to cover up for him?"
At this time, Ji Xian's face looked extremely calm, probably because he was extremely disappointed.
As the saying goes, there is no greater sorrow than heartbreak. What this bull has done has already been revealed, so what else can make him more disappointed?
"After the poisoner was silenced, my husband asked Sun Wu and Owl Yi to secretly monitor Brother Meng."
"In the past few days of the government's ban, Brother Meng went to the Feng family's residence more than once at night."
"A few days ago, after my father announced at home that your husband would go to the palace to lobby, my daughter ordered her maid to follow her quietly. As expected, Brother Meng immediately rushed to Dr. Sihei's residence..."
These are all things Ji Le saw and heard with his own eyes, and they are definitely not fabricated to deliberately frame Brother Meng.
And by this point, everything is already clear.
If Shu Niu hadn't colluded with Feng Duan and Si Hei, how could he have gone to Feng Duan and Si Hei's houses several times?
And the reason why the poisoner captured by Li Ransheng was killed for no reason. If not Shu Niu, who could be the instigator?
"Obviously, Dr. Boshi and Dr. Zixi secretly colluded in order to stir up the whole Zhengyi and cause panic, thereby shaking Dr. Zichan's foundation as the ruling minister."
"When the disease started to rise, my son-in-law made it clear that I should support Dr. Zichan's banning policy. But Brother Meng strongly opposed it at that time. In the end, he wanted to instigate his father-in-law to have discord with Zichan. So,
Or perhaps from that time on, my son-in-law thought that he was already in cahoots with Feng Duan, Si Hei and the others."
"So when Zheng Yi's situation improved, he suddenly strongly opposed lifting the ban, in order to take advantage of this last opportunity to create further trouble for them."
"As long as Dr. Zichan falls, there is no doubt that Feng Duan, as the oldest 'Gongsun' among the six ministers, can naturally succeed him as the ruling minister. At that time, Brother Meng wants to deal with his son-in-law again, or even
It is easy for them to control the entire Ji clan."
In fact, there is another point. Li Ran did not explain it to Ji Xian, but told a little lie.
That is when did Shu Niu conspire with Feng Duan and Si Hei Hang?
Although he said it started with the poisoning incident, in fact, they probably colluded with each other much earlier than that.
After experiencing the incident of "disaster relief food being diverted", Li Ran has been thinking about this issue.
If it is said that Shan Niu launched this conspiracy just to frame himself and Ji Zong and Ji Xun, it does not seem to make sense logically.
After all, what is involved in this is naturally the entire Ji clan. As the eldest son of the Ji clan, if he is really pursued, he himself will not be spared.
If a person commits evil, can he be involved in it too? It seems untenable both emotionally and rationally.
However, if we connect this matter with the conflict between Zichan and Fengduan, it seems to be much more logical.
At that time, if Wei Guo is really held accountable, then Zichan, as the ruling minister, will definitely not escape the responsibility for dereliction of duty. And there will be an irreparable scar between Jishi and Zichan.
This is naturally the situation that Zichan's political opponents most want to see.
Therefore, all this has to make people wonder whether there will also be internal agents who stand up in the temples of the Zheng Kingdom? Or, perhaps, the stand-up cow itself is an internal agent placed by others to worship the clan?
Therefore, after connecting the whole incident, it is not difficult to find that there is only one ultimate goal behind it: Zichan's position as the ruling minister.
Of course, Shu Niu's main purpose in planning the food subcontracting may really be to covet the position of the leader of the Ji clan. But there is a premise, that is, he must have been guaranteed by others.
Naturally, this mole who was hiding in the ranks of Zheng Guo Shangqing to protect him also hoped to use this incident to bring down Zi Chan. So both parties took what they needed and did the most dangerous job of raising a cow.
There are also people covering for him.
So much so that after the Dongchuang Incident occurred about the food exchange, the government did not urge the Ji family to deal with the matter internally.
Of course, there must be a reason why family sacrifice is very important in Zheng State.
However, even if there is such a reason, since the matter is serious, Zi Chan did not pursue it, it was for the sake of Ji Xian.
But what about others?
Why didn't they continue to investigate?
Could it be that selling sacrifices comes first to save face?
Obviously not.
The only thing that can be explained is that this matter is caused by the collusion between Shu Niu and the people in the temple. If something happens to Shu Niu, they will also be found out. And keeping Shu Niu is equivalent to saving
themselves, so naturally they will not delve into this matter further.
As a result, this matter that was originally enough to affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries was reduced to a major matter and a trivial matter. No one even stood up to ask a question.
It is precisely for this reason that when the malaria outbreak began, his first thought was to monitor Shu Niu.
On the one hand, it was to confirm his suspicions, and on the other hand, he also hoped to follow the clues and determine who was responsible for the malaria incident.
Sure enough, after the plague broke out, Li Ran saw everything Shu Niu did secretly.
But this time, Li Ran did not choose to hide it from Ji Xian.
"Hahahaha..."
I don’t know whether Ji was extremely sad and happy at first, or whether he couldn’t hide the self-mockery in his heart and actually laughed out loud for a while.
But his smile was very bitter.
"I didn't expect...I would raise such a bastard...what a big joke..."
"Dad..."
Ji Le was about to step forward to comfort Ji Xian, but Ji Xian waved her hand and stopped her.
I saw Ji Xian rubbing his forehead with one hand and tapping on the table with the other, looking haggard.
"Since you have noticed these things for a long time, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
After a while, Ji Xian suddenly sighed.
"Brother Meng plays a very important role within the Ji family. If we are not absolutely sure, how can our son-in-law dare to talk nonsense?"
Li Ran's answer was very concise.
Ji Xian nodded slightly when he heard the sound, then turned his eyes, and his face suddenly became stern.
"Then what do you think should be done with him this time?"
What I said before is all nonsense, this last sentence is the key point.
In fact, when all the questions are solved, this is the only question that needs to be answered.
