Because he failed to save Chang Hong, Guan Cong felt guilty, but despite his sadness, he did not dare to miss important events.
On the one hand, he made Chang Hong's suicide note public to the public in accordance with his instructions during his lifetime, and used the voice of scholars to put pressure on the Zhou royal family.
On the other hand, he quickly conveyed the news of Chang Hong's death to Jinyang.
…
As for Jinyang, they had received news from Jiangcheng before, saying that if Zhao Yang wants to return to Jiangcheng, he must deal with Li Ran first!
Moreover, as the so-called "culprit", Li Ran is not only the Marquis of Jin who wants to deal with him, but also the Emperor has made his "position" clear!
When Zhao Yang received the news, he couldn't help but became furious and slammed the document on the table.
"This is really unreasonable!"
Li Ran picked up the document and after taking a look at it, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows:
"Haha, I didn't expect that they were so eager to take Li's life!"
When Zhao Yang heard this, he understood it immediately. He immediately bowed and said:
"Please be at ease, sir. No matter what happens, Yang Yang will never hand your husband over to them!"
Li Ran glanced at Zhao Yang, smiled and joked:
"Oh? But if the general doesn't deal with this matter, I'm afraid it will be difficult to return to Jiangcheng?..."
But seeing Zhao Yang, he immediately raised his head and said:
"Hmph! So what? I, Zhao Yang, work alone, how can I not be so responsible? What's more, my husband is here to help me, how can I burn the bridge? There is no doubt about this matter! As for how to respond
What happened in Jiangcheng... well... Yang Yang also has his own plans!"
When Li Ran heard this, he smiled slightly, shook his head, and sighed.
In fact, Li Ran knew very well that even he couldn't come up with a countermeasure now, let alone Zhao Yang. What's more, this involved a lot, not only the Zhou royal family, but even Qi State and Wei State.
Guo, Zheng and other countries were also there watching.
After Zhao Yang retreated, Fan Li said with concern:
"Sir, what do you think of this matter? How to solve the problem?"
Li Ran said:
"This move is obviously because the secret warriors want to take my life! I thought that the seven secret warriors who are now wandering in the Jin Kingdom might be Zhong Xingyin. But I didn't expect that now they are Xun Shu!"
In fact, Li Ran had met Xun Shu several times before, and although he didn't know much about him, judging from various previous signs, Xun Shu at that time did indeed know very little about the affairs of the Dark Walkers.
.
But it is obvious that today is different from the past. Now that the Zhongxing clan and the Fan clan have been defeated, the people in the dark clan will naturally focus on Xun Shu.
However, what Li Ran never expected was that the Dark Walkers would move so quickly! In just a moment, Xun Shu was carried over.
As for Xun Shu joining the Dark Walkers, it is obviously the best thing for him to get such external help for free.
Fan Li sighed:
"It seems... something is not good about this!"
Li Ran was silent for a moment and said:
"This matter is indeed a bit difficult to handle. Let me think about it carefully..."
Fan Li said:
"General Zhao... there shouldn't be anything wrong, right?"
Li Ran smiled slightly and replied firmly:
"Young uncle, you are too worried. Zhao Zhifu is a resolute man. If the secret agents want to threaten him, they are just talking nonsense! What's more, Zhao Yang should also be very clear. If he really compromises today, he will definitely be in trouble in the future.
He will be controlled by others. How could he not know Yang Hu’s lessons learned? Therefore, Zhao Yang will definitely not do anything to me now!"
Fan Li also said:
"Well, Li feels the same way."
But when Zhao Yang returned to his mansion, he summoned Dong Anyu, Yin Duo and Yang Hu to discuss the matter.
Dong Anyu also looked at the document carefully, then randomly handed it over and said:
"My lord! It seems...if my lord doesn't find the culprit, it will be difficult for him to return to the Jin Dynasty!"
Zhao Yang sighed and said helplessly:
"Yes...but since Mr. Ziming has been kind to me, Mrs. Zhao, how can we kill him?"
Yin Duo also nodded and said:
"Mr. Ziming is not only kind to the Zhao family, but he is also very useful. My lord will also need this person to make suggestions for my lord in the future!"
Yang Hu also said carelessly:
"Not only that, but I also ask my lord to learn from Yang Hu. In the past, Yang Hu was ruined in the Lu country because he succumbed to Fan Yang. But now Xun Shu has come to make money for my lord. My lord must not be fooled easily!"
Dong Anyu glanced at Zhao Yang, but seeing his sad face, he couldn't help but asked with concern:
"This matter is indeed not easy...but I don't know...what does the master have in mind now?"
Zhao Yang thought hard for a while and said:
"This matter... we must find a way to achieve both ends!"
"I also ask you all to think carefully for me after you go back, and try to come up with a way..."
After everyone heard the words, they all agreed in unison, and then left each other.
…
A few more days passed like this.
Just when Zhao Yang was at his wits' end, the news of Chang Hong's suicide spread from Chengzhou to Jinyang.
After Li Ran heard this, he stood stunned on the spot, and then burst into tears!
Chang Hong's letter was also passed to Zhao Yang. When Zhao Yang saw it, he was quite moved. He knew that Li Ran was in a bad mood, so he came to comfort him.
Li Ran just cried. Although he had expected it before, he didn't expect that his master would get such a result in the end!
Moreover, the death of Master Zun was closely related to him, so how could this not make him feel guilty?
Li Ran burst into tears, while Zhao Yang stepped forward and handed over the silk handkerchief, and said comfortingly:
"Sir...please express your condolences and acquiesce..."
Li Ran wiped his tears.
"General... my master died because of me..."
Zhao Yang held Li Ran's hands and said sincerely:
"No! This is all because of me... If sir had not made suggestions for Martingale, how could the commander have suffered such a disaster?"
When Li Ran heard these words, although he was still extremely sad, he couldn't help but feel a warmth flowing in his heart.
"General..."
Zhao Yang gritted his teeth and said:
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Sir, Martingale will definitely avenge you. Xunsong should be the culprit in this matter. If he hadn't been a hindrance, how could there have been so many things?"
?”
Although Li Ran was sad, he still remained awake at this time.
He wiped away his tears and immediately raised his hands and said:
"General, no! Xun Shu is still useful... and now is not the time to fall out with him!"
When Zhao Yang saw this, he clenched his fists, and immediately returned the gesture with cupped fists:
"No! Yang Jin will obey your words! But please rest assured, Mr. Zhao Yang's revenge is Zhao Yang's revenge! In the future, Yang Yang will avenge you for Mr. Zhao Yang!"
Later, Zhao Yang also built a mourning hall in Jinyang to pay homage to Li Ran's revered master.
Li Ran knelt in front of the spiritual tablet, recalling the experience of praying with Chang Hong when he was young, and couldn't help crying. As long as Li Ran can remember, his father has disappeared. He studied with Chang Hong, like his father and teacher.
Every time Li Ran thought about this, he felt heartbroken and had no intention of thinking about the current situation.
But on the other hand, Dong An seemed to have found a way to break the situation with Chang Hong's death!
That night, Dong An found Zhao Yang directly.
Zhao Yang couldn't help being surprised when he saw Dong An visiting late at night:
"Why do you come here so late at night?"
When Dong An saw Zhao Yang, he opened his mouth and said:
"Just because I thought of a way to help my lord overcome this difficulty!"
Zhao Yang asked in surprise:
"Oh? What's your idea?"
At this time, Dong Anyu handed over his hand again, and analyzed with Zhao Yang:
"My lord, Mr. Chang's death is unfortunate for Mr. Ziming! But for the general, it is a way to break the situation!"
"Mr. Chang was a highly respected person, and his last words were almost intended to exonerate Mr. Ziming. Now that this book has been known to everyone in the world, Mr. Ziming will definitely win the sympathy of the world! From this, Mr. Ziming has nothing to worry about!
"
"It's just that we cannot turn a blind eye to the new laws of the Jin Kingdom, otherwise my lord will have no faith in the world! If Xun Shuo brings up the old issues again in the future, I'm afraid my lord will also have difficulty coping with it!"
"So, now we only need to find one more person to take the responsibility of being the 'primary culprit', and then the Lord's return to Jiangcheng will be just around the corner!"
Zhao Yang couldn't help but sigh:
"Having said that...but who can take the blame?"
At this time, Dong An suddenly knelt down and bowed to the ground, bowing his head and saying:
