In fact, the matter is not complicated. As for the Ji family, Shu Niu secretly changed the grain in the Ji family's grain truck and replaced it with firewood and stones, and almost killed Ji Zeng and Ji Xun. It almost turned Wei Guo and Zheng Guo into enemies.
If Shu Niu was handed over, Zheng Guoguan's family would probably not be lenient.
But it was obviously impossible for Ji Xian to hand over the vertical cow to the court, and Li Ran also knew that Ji Xian could not let this matter rise to such a high level of hostility between the two countries.
So he was sure that Ji Xian would handle the matter privately.
"You two go back first. My father has something to say to Zi Ming."
The dark clouds on Ji Xian's face surged for a while, but finally dissipated.
At least in front of his two legitimate sons, he still had to act calmly and keep his emotions and anger in check, which is how an old father should behave.
Jiyi and Jixun looked at each other, then at Li Ran, and saw Li Ran nodded slightly before leaving.
At this time, Ji Le came forward, looked at her father with a very unclear look and said:
"Dad? You just let Brother Zhong and Uncle go back like this? What if..."
"fun…"
Before she could finish her words, Matsushita's deep voice interrupted her.
Just listen to him continue to say:
"Since you and Ziming discovered this matter, you should know the whole story. Even if Shu Niu is brave enough, he would not dare to do such a thing. Someone else must be inciting him behind his back!"
Hearing the sound, even Li Ran and Ji Le couldn't help but be stunned.
Does this mean that there will be no further investigation?
Is this the case?
What the hell is this!
Li Ran also thought that Ji Xian would protect Shu Niu, but he didn't expect that Ji Xian would protect him to this extent!
This time the cow was raised, it almost caused the conflict between Zheng and Wei!
You know, what Zheng Guo needs most urgently now is a stable environment in neighboring countries. This is the essence summarized from hundreds of years of blood and tears.
So what a big deal this is! How can it be settled so easily?
"Dad...Brother Meng, he..."
"Ziming, what do you think?"
Ji Xian did not give Ji Le a chance. Instead, he looked at Li Ran and asked what he meant.
If you say that Matsushita is an old fox, that would be absolutely correct.
He opened his mouth and said "Zi Ming" and closed his mouth, "Zi Ming". With such closeness, it was obvious that he wanted to treat Li Ran as one of his own.
And since Li Ran is already a member of his own family, how can he not give up his reputation as an elder? In this case, how could Li Ran be cruel to Shu Niu again?
Besides, why did he ask Li Ran what he meant? Because among Zheng Yi, the only one who could be cruel to Shu Niu, and the only one who could use this incident to deal with Shu Niu, was Li Ran.
Considering the relationship between Li Ran and Zichan, how could Ji Xian not know this?
Therefore, his pretentious inquiry was not so much an inquiry as a hint to Li Ran: let this matter go and don't pursue it any further.
This short sentence fully demonstrated his nature as an old fox. Even Li Ran couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
So Li Ran thought for a while, and then finally smiled and said:
"Well, since the old sect master has already spoken, how can Li Ran continue to mess around? Everything is left to the old sect master's disposal."
"Brother Ziming..."
"Miss Sacrifice, what your Majesty just said is indeed true. There must be an evil person behind this matter. We only need to find out who is the one who bewitched Brother Shu Niu. As for Shu Niu himself, there is no need to continue to delve deeper. .”
Standing tall, he can give up the pursuit temporarily.
But Li Ran would never let go of the person behind the bull.
Ji first heard the sound, nodded immediately, and said in a deep voice:
"Well, Zheng Yi is not a small person. It's not easy to find these people."
"In this way, I will arrange some manpower for you tomorrow. You must investigate this matter thoroughly and find out the person behind it!"
Hearing that Li Ran no longer held the responsibility for erecting the ox, Ji Xian naturally walked down the steps. By the way, I gave Li Ran some benefits, which was also a kind of comfort to Li Ran.
After all, Li Ran contributed both money and effort to this matter, and even went to Weiguo to rescue his two sons. As the head of the family, he always has to express himself.
"Then I would like to thank the old sect master."
"Oh, by the way, this time it was thanks to Miss Ji's quick wits that we were able to save thousands of gold and keep Ji's family safe. If not, even if Li Ran had great ability, it would be impossible to raise so much food and vehicles. Completely helpless.”
That day Ji Le came to the other courtyard with a full car full of her fine jewelry. Even the dowry her mother left for her was later delivered by the servant she arranged.
But what he didn't expect was that when Dang Ji first heard about this, he was startled, and then looked at Ji Le with great distress.
"What? Le'er! Those are your future dowry! Did you sell them all?"
Money is not a trivial matter. The main thing is that these things were left by her mother. They are not only a kind of commemoration, but also a kind of inheritance.
Moreover, if Ji Le hadn't come up with a quick idea this time, Ji Shi would have been in huge trouble this time, and Ji Xian would certainly feel distressed.
"Dad, these are all external things. My daughter doesn't feel sorry for me. Why do you feel sorry for me..."
Ji Le was still a little resentful about Ji Xian's request not to hold the cow-erector accountable just now, but she also knew that Ji Xian had said something and Jiu Niu couldn't be pulled back, so she could only sulk on her own.
Seeing this, Ji Xian also knew that his handling was biased, and immediately sighed:
"Hey...it's my father's fault, it's my father's fault!...It's because my father doesn't care enough about you on weekdays...Don't worry, my father will definitely make it up to you."
"Ziming, how are you considering your marriage to Le'er?"
Before, he planned to let Li Ran start a career in Zheng Yi before he planned to let Li Ran marry Ji Le.
However, after this incident, he finally understood that Li Ran had no intention of dealing with Jishi, and thanks to Li Ran's help this time, Jishi would have been in much trouble otherwise.
Li Ran's ability was also reflected in this matter. This man definitely did not gain fame in vain. Uncle Sunbao's statement that "this son is pure in nature, good at planning and judgment, and getting him is like getting a unicorn" was not an exaggeration on purpose.
If Jishi can get Li Ran, he will finally be able to take off in the future!
So, he opened his mouth and stopped hiding it.
When Ji Le heard the sound, Xiu's face turned as red as an apple, and she turned around and hid behind Ji Xian.
Li Ran was also startled. He didn't expect Ji Xian to ask him this in front of Ji Le.
"This... everything is left to the arrangement of the old sect leader."
However, the matter has come to this, and in line with the conscience of heaven and earth, he still agreed.
Because he really likes festival music.
In the vast sea of people, it is really not easy to meet someone you like and like yourself. Being able to be with him and get the approval of his parents is a great blessing in life.
Although he was suspected of being a softie when he married Ji Le, because after all, he was marrying into Ji's family.
But in life, we eat too much hard food, and it doesn't seem to be a big deal to have a few bites of soft rice now and then.
When Ji Le heard that Li Ran agreed directly, he immediately blushed and ran out of the courtyard quickly. However, everyone could see from the way she was jumping up and down that she was really happy.
