Li Ran actually 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 all these accounts 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. Later, Han Hu's order came from the carriage in front, calling Li Ran to go and discuss.
Li Ran glanced at Sun Wu and told him to be on guard, then jumped off the carriage and caught up on foot.
When I came closer, I saw that Han Hu was looking at the vast wilderness in front of him, and couldn't help but ask:
"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 at full speed. 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 people of Chu 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 mission, he will 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. This journey has been too peaceful."
It had been three days since they left Zheng Yi, and they were about to enter Weiguo territory. But the journey was so smooth that it was abnormally smooth.
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.
And Han Hu also understood after hearing the sound. I saw his eyes sweeping around the guards around the carriage, and a little sarcasm could not help but show in the corners of his eyes.
"Feng Duan and Si Hei, one has already been ranked as a high minister, and the other has been ranked as a high official, but they are still trying to make an extravagant move! 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 for the mission of more than a thousand people, no one could guarantee it. 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.
"Yes, what the doctor said is absolutely true."
"However, I think that 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' 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 no matter whether it was the Ji family of Lu State, the Qi people, or 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 had some bad premonitions about this meeting in Guodi.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. There must be something behind it that is not 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 located.
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 still need to find out more about this matter."
So, Li Ran came to the Jin camp under the escort of Sun Wu and Chu Dang.
I saw that in front of the camp where Zhao Wu was located, ministers from several other countries were lined up and waiting there. It was now the end of summer, and the sun was scorching, but none of these people were willing to retreat.
"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 Zhao Zhongjun is going to give up the position of presiding over the alliance meeting to the Chu Kingdom 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 take advantage of Chu State this time, but by acting like this, doesn't it mean it's unfair to me?"
Several ministers from the princely states finally made this matter clear with your words and my words.
So that's what happened.
Li Ran quickly informed Yu Hanhu about this. Hanhu changed his face when he heard this, and was about to go and admonish Zhao Wu, but unexpectedly, a familiar figure suddenly appeared among the crowd.
"Ziming!"
"Doctor Shusun!"
"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!"
Sure enough, it was Shusun Bao who was sent by the State of Lu to attend the meeting.
When Uncle Sunbao and Li Ran reunited after a long absence, they were overjoyed. Seeing that Li Ran now came to participate in the alliance with Han Hu, the chief minister of the Zheng Kingdom, he also had some concerns in his heart.
Similarly, when Li Ran met Shusun Bao, he could also predict that Shusun's family must be at peace in Lu State now. Since the Shusun family is as safe as Mount Tai, it is natural that the official office will be protected.
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 Bao to give advice?"
