Li Ran actually really hopes that Ji Sun Yiru can attend this meeting in Guodi.
At that time, Ji Ye, the former crown prince of Lu State, was killed for no reason, which also led to the death of Sun Su outside Qufu City, and the endless pursuit on the road to Zhengyi. Li Ranke remembered this account clearly and clearly.
of.
Sun Wu may have been a little too hasty about revenge, but for Li Ran,
Why not?
Just as he was thinking about it, the convoy suddenly stopped. Then, Han Hu's order came from the carriage in front, calling Li Ran to come for discussion.
Li Ran glanced at Sun Wu and asked him to be more alert, then jumped off the carriage and caught up on foot.
When I came closer, I saw that Hanhu was looking at the vast wilderness in front of him.
He couldn't help but asked:
"Ziming, do you know how many days it will take to get to Guodi?"
"It will take at least ten days to report back to the country, if the journey goes smoothly."
The last time Li Ran and Zichan went to the Jin Kingdom, it only lasted a few days, but this time they rushed to Guodi in a leisurely manner, which lasted almost ten days.
"Have you noticed it too?"
Han Hu waved his hand to him, motioning him to get in the carriage, and then asked.
After Li Ran sat down, he and Han Hu looked at the field ahead, frowned and said:
"If the Chu people want to march north into the Central Plains, the first country they have to face is our state of Zheng."
"This Guo Di Alliance meeting was organized by a prince. If he wants to take action against our envoy, then blame others, and then attack me on the grounds that Zheng State does not abide by the Song Alliance, the consequences will be disastrous.
"
When Li Ran saw this wilderness, he thought of going to the same place as Han Hu.
"yes."
"I also have such worries in my heart.
It was a little too peaceful along the way."
It has been three days since they left Zhengyi, and they are about to enter the territory of Weiguo. But along the way,
It went so smoothly that it was a bit abnormal.
Even if the Chu people don't take action, what about Feng Duan and Si Hei in Zheng Yi City?
Are they willing to watch the rare tiger reach Guodi?
"Doctor, there is no need to worry too much. We have already arranged manpower before and after this mission. Even if something really happens, we can guarantee that they will not be able to hurt the doctor even a hair."
"It's just that if we, Zheng Ren, are ourselves..."
Li Ran said this, but did not continue, with a rather embarrassed look on his face.
Han Hu also understood after hearing the sound. He saw his eyes sweeping around the guards around the chariot, and a little sarcasm could not help but appear in the corners of his eyes.
"Feng Duan and Si Hei, one is already a high minister, and the other is a high official, but they are still trying to push their limits! Alas... these two are really the black sheep of our Zheng Kingdom!
"
How could he not know what Li Ran meant by what he just said?
Although Han Hu personally selected these people in this mission of more than a thousand people, no one could protect them all. Are there any spies from Feng Duan and Si Hei among them?
Once these spies suddenly attack on the way, it will really catch people off guard.
"Um,
What the doctor said is absolutely true."
"I thought,
Since the illness, these two people should be dealt with properly. As time goes by, these two people will eventually become a problem for Zheng Guo."
Hearing that Han Hu was going to deal with Feng Duan and Si Hei, Li Ran immediately took advantage of the situation.
After all, their existence itself is the biggest obstacle to Zheng Guo's New Deal. If they can be eliminated, Zichan can successfully implement the New Deal, and Zheng Guo's resurgence will be just around the corner.
…
After another seven days of journey, the Zheng State delegation finally arrived in Guodi as scheduled.
It went smoothly, very smoothly, so smoothly that Li Ran almost couldn't believe it.
He originally thought that neither the Ji family of Lu, nor the Qi people, nor Feng Duan, Si Hei and others would miss this opportunity.
But who knew that this journey would be so smooth and without any troubles.
But precisely because of this, Li Ran vaguely had some bad premonitions about this meeting in Guodi.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster behind it, and it must not be that simple.
After arriving in Guodi, the Zheng delegation, led by the Chu people, arrived at the camping place that had been arranged for them in advance.
However, before Li Ran and Han Hu settled down, news suddenly came from the camp where Jin was staying.
It's just that many people are gathering in front of Zhao Wu's camp to petition.
"What happened?"
Han Hu asked about Li Ran. But Li Ran was also new here, so naturally he knew nothing about it, so he immediately said:
"I don't know, I have to go find out more about this matter."
So, Li Ran came to the Jin camp under the escort of Sun Wu and Chu Dang.
In front of the camp where Zhao Wu was located, the ministers from several other countries were lined up and waiting there. It was the end of summer and the sun was scorching, but none of these people were willing to do so.
Retreating.
"Excuse me, what happened to Zhao Zhongjun of Jin State?"
Li Ran saw that something was not going well, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"Hey, you Lu people have just arrived. I'm afraid you don't know yet, right? I heard that during this alliance meeting, Zhao Zhongjun will give up the position of presiding over the alliance meeting to Chu State Ling Yin! Is this okay?"
"Yes! Zhao Zhongjun has not been involved in political affairs for many years, but now he comes like this and asks us to wait, how should we deal with it?"
"Yes, yes, it's fine that Zhao Zhongjun wants to benefit Chu State in vain this time, but by acting like this, isn't it unfair to me?"
Several ministers from the princely states finally made this matter clear with your words and my words.
That's what happened.
Li Ran quickly informed Yu Hanhu of this matter. Hanhu changed his face when he heard this, and was about to go and admonish Zhao Wu, but unexpectedly, a familiar figure suddenly came out from the crowd.
"Ziming!"
"Doctor Shusun!"
"Ah ah ah, long time no see, long time no see! I heard that Zi Ming has done a lot of great things in Zheng State, and Bao Bao is also sincerely happy for you! By the way, it is said that Zi Ming recently married Ji Le? What a joy.
Congratulations, what a joy and congratulations!"
As expected, it was Shusun Bao who was sent by the State of Lu to attend the meeting.
Uncle Sunbao was overjoyed to reunite with Li Ran after a long absence. And seeing that Li Ran was accompanied by Han Hu, the chief minister of the Zheng State, to attend the alliance, he also had some concerns in his heart.
Similarly, when Li Ran met Shusun Bao, he could also predict that the Shusun family must be as safe as Mount Tai in the Lu State. Since the Shusun family is as safe as Mount Tai, it is natural that the official office will be the same.
There is a guarantee.
After the two reminisced about old times, the topic finally returned to the current issue.
"What Zhao Zhongjun did is really puzzling. Doctor Shusun has been here a long time ago, what do you think?"
After Han Hu and Uncle Sun Bao saw the ceremony, they asked worriedly.
Li Ran also turned his attention to him.
Uncle Sunbao sighed when he heard the sound, then took a deep breath and said:
"In Bao Bao's humble opinion, the position of leader of the alliance must never be given up to Chu. This is the bottom line for us and other Xia."
"You two are willing to go with Leopard to advise me?"
