Li Ran's timely rescue saved Ji Zong and Ji Xun from an unnecessary disaster. The two of them were grateful to Li Ran.
"Oh, thank you very much, Mr. Ziming. If it hadn't been for your help today, both of my brothers would have become prisoners of Weiguo. We don't know how to repay such kindness. Mr. Ziming, sir,
Please accept my courtesy."
Perhaps because they were so frightened that their legs were weak, the two brothers fell to their knees on the ground as they spoke, and they no longer looked like they were children of a wealthy family.
"If your husband gives you orders in the future, my two brothers will not dare to resign!"
However, as the saying goes, "Every bite you take makes you wise." The two of them suffered this catastrophe, but they also knew that someone must be secretly trying to harm them during this transportation of food.
And Li Ran was able to arrive in time, which indirectly means that Li Ran must have some knowledge of the matter. In this case, after they return, they will definitely have to rely on Li Ran to figure out who is secretly framing them. "You two young masters, you don't have to be like this. This time you came to save you all because of the entrustment of Miss Ji Le. If you two really want to thank you, you can thank your good sister properly after you go back.
”
Li Ran responded casually, although the two of them didn't have much favorable impressions.
But since these two people are now being assassinated by Zhu Niu, they can be regarded as their allies, and they will always be useful in the future.
So, after the words fell, he helped the two of them up, patted their shoulders with some comfort, and cheered them up:
"You don't have to be so depressed. When you return to Zheng Guo, I will help you find the real murderer."
"Oh? Seriously?"
After the two of them heard this, they couldn't help but feel happy.
Originally, the two of them seemed a little discouraged when they saw that Li Ran didn't care much about them and didn't dare to be demanding. After all, they had heard about Li Ran's abilities and knew that even if he was a doctor, he would have to visit him in person. This kind of face is not something ordinary people can compare with.
As for the two of them, because they had benefited from their sister, they had already been saved by Li Ran once. If they had any other thoughts, they would be a little regretful.
Therefore, how could they not be excited when they heard what Li Ran said personally that he would help them find out the mastermind behind the scenes?
"What? You two can't trust me?"
"How dare you, how dare you! Your husband's reputation is astonishing. If you can get your help from him, the two of us will be very happy!"
"Even if we reciprocate love, as for your matter, sir, please rest assured that we both know how to do it."
In the second half of his words, Ji Zeng gave Li Ran a look that looked very cunning.
Li Ran couldn't help but frown slightly when he saw this, and asked in surprise:
"Me? What's going on?"
He didn't understand the meaning of Jiyi.
Just listen to the sacrifice and say with a smile:
"Oh, sir, why do you ask questions knowingly? It's better not to pretend to be ignorant and tease us. Everyone in the clan knows what happened between you and my little sister. Even my father has already agreed to it, but he will wait until he shows off his skills.
You can become my son-in-law who rides the dragon to my family."
"Huh?"
Li Ran's eyes nearly popped out when he heard the sound.
He thought to himself: I just came to Zheng to avoid the pursuit of the Ji family, how come I want to marry you to sacrifice the family? No, no, Ji Le has never told me about this!
Damn it! Is this the legendary... arranged marriage?
In fact, he really doesn't know about this, and he actually has no plans in this regard at the moment.
Although he has a good relationship with Ji Le and has feelings for men and women, they are all out of love and not out of courtesy. He has no further thoughts. After all, he is only seventeen or eighteen years old. According to the modern social system, he is still underage, isn't he?
?
Furthermore, he wouldn't even dare to think about getting married.
Although he now has a small reputation in the vassal states, if we put it more realistically, he wants a house but no house, a car but no car, no savings, no high school, no property, just a bare man, how can he get married?
It's brain-drenched.
"Oh, sir, please stop teasing us. In the Ji clan, who doesn't know who doesn't know? If it weren't for the fact that my husband and my little sister have been privately engaged for life, why would my little sister swear that she won't marry anyone other than my husband? Now my husband is asking me
I have received a great favor from my family, and my father has no choice but to refuse to agree. Why don’t you, sir, just go with the flow and just accept it?"
As they talked, the two brothers Jiyi and Jixun both laughed out loud with "malicious intentions".
This made Li Ran's forehead covered with black lines. How could he have imagined that Ji Le had actually reported the matter to Ji Xian without telling him.
Since you want to ask whether you agree or disagree, you have to ask yourself first!
Li Ran scratched his head for a while, only to realize that this incident was really unexpected, and he must ask Ji Le clearly after returning to Zheng Yi.
Without saying much, the group finished delivering the grain and immediately set off back to Zhengyi.
Along the way, everyone in the Ji family was already frightened, so they were naturally extra vigilant along the way.
And now that we had no food and no goods, we were traveling very fast. In just a few days, we had reached the outskirts of Zhengyi.
Li Ran, Sun Wu and Chu Tang were sitting in the same car. While chatting, Sun Wu heard that Chu Tang said that this time on his way to Weiguo, he also encountered a group of warriors who intercepted him on the way. He was immediately startled and asked hurriedly.
for details.
After Li Ran told him, he also expressed his guess:
"If Shu Niu and the Ji family colluded in private, it would not be difficult to understand. But now, Qi people have also gotten involved, so that now there is no clue about the matter again. It seems that the matter is becoming more and more complicated.
."
Whether it was Shu Niu's collusion with the Qi people or Shu Niu's collusion with the Ji family, he could actually understand it. After all, Shu Niu was the eldest son of Zheng Guo's Ji family.
Dealing with people is a common thing.
However, this time Shu Niu colluded with the Ji family, deliberately assassinated himself, and even summoned the forces of Qi people to deal with him. This obviously went far beyond the scope of "seeking personal gain". It is not difficult to see that the two are closely related to Shu Niu.
What Niu is planning is by no means as simple as money.
Li Ran knew the reason why Ji wanted to kill him very well, but what about Shu Niu? Why did he have to put himself to death? Just to give Ji a certificate so that he could do more business in the future?
If it is really a business, then the price must be equal. Jishi is not short of money, and he really helped Ji do such a dirty thing. Could it be that Ji could be thousands of miles away and help him ascend to Jiji?
The position of the sect leader? That’s completely impossible!
So, what effect will his death have on Shu Niu? What different benefits will it bring to him?
He has never figured this out.
In addition, he did think about it, could it be because of the festival music?
Ever since he heard that Ji Le had obtained Ji Xian's consent and insisted on marrying him, he had been wondering whether it was because of this that Shu Niu was afraid of him and even wanted to kill him.
Fast.
After all, his existence has probably threatened Shu Niu's plan to compete for the head of the Ji clan. Ji Le, who was originally excluded from the plan, once she gets married, she will not be considered a member of the Ji family at all. But now, Ji Le
If Le finds a son-in-law, he will naturally become a force that cannot be underestimated in the clan.
But when he thought about it again, ever since he first visited Jishi and saw Shu Niu, Shu Niu had shown such murderous intent towards him, and at that time, Ji Le had not yet interacted with Ji Xian.
When it comes to marriage, otherwise, Ji Xian shouldn't have the kind of noncommittal reaction at that time.
Therefore, this should not be the reason why the cow stands up.
"What does that mean, sir..."
Sun Wu was also confused and couldn't think of a reason for the moment.
Just listen to Li Ran say:
"This time, the four kingdoms of Qi, Jin, Zheng and Lu are getting together. There must be some unknown secrets hidden behind this. We must be more careful when we return to Zhengyi this time."
"Changqing, you will leave the team soon and return to Zhengyi, and then..."
Faced with unknown traps, he must be prepared step by step.
