In fact, Wang Ziwei knew very well that tonight Zhao Wu came to visit in person to rescue Shu Sunbao. After talking to him for so long, it seemed that he was still thinking about the interests of their Chu country, but in fact? Wouldn't it be more beneficial to the Jin State to rescue Shusun Bao?
And there were a lot of strange things going on tonight, and it seemed more like a trap, and they were deeply involved in it.
How could they have no feeling at all about this? Therefore, Wu Ju bowed and replied:
"Zhou thought that first an unidentified person attacked the camp, and then Le Wang Yu, and Li Ran and others suddenly appeared in the camp where Shusun Bao was being held. Then Zhao Wu came to visit in person just now. If Ju's prediction is true, tonight Li Ran, Zhao Wu and others should have discussed this matter long ago!"
"What Li Ran said just now must make Yin understand. Although he is thinking about our country of Chu both inside and outside, in fact, he is still just trying to save Uncle Sunbao."
"When Shusun Bao returns to Lu, small countries like Ju will no longer trust me as the leader of Chu. And Lu, who has received the favor of Jin this time, will be more consistent with Jin. , or even block our Chu country’s northward path for hegemony!”.CoM
"His wolfish ambitions are so obvious that your Majesty Yin must be on guard!"
Just now, the reason why Wu Ju didn't say these words in front of Zhao Wu and Li Ran was because with Zhao Wu's experience and Li Ran's extensive knowledge, once he said these words in front of their faces, it would definitely He was severely refuted by these two people.
By then, his remarks will not only question Zhao Wu and Li Ran, but will also cause them to throw dirty water on them again.
Furthermore, the overall situation of the world is constantly changing, and what Wu Ju said is just a guess and cannot be regarded as solid evidence.
Therefore, he could only tell the princes in private about these words.
Of course, Wang Ziwei also understood that, after all, he was not stupid enough to completely believe that Zhao Wu and Li Ran had the vital interests of Chu State in mind.
The polite remarks made out of face are ignored. If they are taken seriously, I am afraid they will make people laugh.
"This Li Ran is brave and resourceful, knowledgeable, sophistical, and eloquent. Moreover, he is extremely resourceful. If he continues to side with the Jin Kingdom, he may become our great enemy in the future... …”
In the end, Wu Ju specially took out Li Ran and emphasized it again.
The kings of Chu State have always traveled north to the Central Plains and drank from the Yellow River as their long-cherished wish. The first country that stood in the way of Chu State's northward march was Zheng State.
Now that Li Ran is in the state of Zheng and is so close to the state of Jin, you can imagine how difficult it will be for the state of Chu to advance northward.
The prince listened around, thought for a while, and then nodded and said:
"Well, Wu Qing will make arrangements for me. Your Majesty will go to visit Li Ran in person tomorrow."
In fact, as early as when Ziwei met Li Ran for the first time, at the Jishi Manor outside Zheng Guocheng, he had already intended to recruit Li Ran.
However, he had a more important mission at that time, and he really didn't take Li Ran too seriously at that time. So, I missed it.
Now that the alliance has ended, there is no need to be too anxious about returning to Chu State. Therefore, recruiting Li Ran will naturally be put on the agenda.
Wu Ju also knew that Li Ran was very talented and it would be best if he could be used by Chu State.
Of course, "if you can't get it, destroy it" is actually another way. However, that is a story for later.
Therefore, Wu Ju immediately followed the order and left. Since he was recruiting Li Ran, etiquette was indispensable.
After the prince surrounded Wu Ju and left, he turned his attention to Zheng Guo's camp again.
"Li Ran... what a Li Ran... I didn't expect it to be a true prophecy..."
The only heroes in the world are Ziming and Weier.
This sentence was originally just a compliment from Wang Ziwei, or a threat.
However, now it seems that this sentence is about to come true.
…
Guo, the residence of the State of Zheng.
After Li Ran and Shusun Bao returned together, Han Hu was very surprised to see them. He did not expect that Li Ran actually rescued Shusun Bao!
After some greetings, the three of them took their seats. Han Hu immediately asked:
"Did any of the princes gather any clues about what happened tonight?"
What he asked was naturally about Li Ran's night attack on Chu camp.

He was worried that once the prince found out about this matter, the soldiers of Chu State would probably target Zheng Yi tomorrow. Therefore, as a leader, he was naturally extremely nervous.
Li Ran cupped his hands and replied:
"Back in the country, there were many twists and turns tonight, but fortunately Zhao Zhongjun came to help in time. It's really a blessing."
"Furthermore, the arrangements have already been made properly, and there will never be any clues left."
It turned out that a group of guards led by Sun Wu had already escaped from Guo Di after finishing their work, and dispersed and returned to Zheng State. This was actually arranged by Li Ran early in the morning.
The purpose is to prevent the prince from finding out their origins.
"Well, that's good. Our country, Zheng, is the key point for the Chu Kingdom to advance northward. At this moment, we must not leave any clues for him."
It goes without saying that Han Hu's only concern is the safety of Zheng.
Uncle Sunbao on the side also hurriedly thanked him when he heard the voice:
"Bao Bao is grateful to Zi Pi and Zi Ming for saving him. This kindness will be unforgettable by Bao Bao!"
"Whenever there is a need in the future, Leopard and the Shusun family will do their best to help!"
In fact, he said these two sentences to Li Ran.
However, since Han Hu was also present, he naturally had to be taken along with him.
"Why did Dr. Shusun say this? Now you and I, Lu and Zheng, are in the same spirit. Saving you means saving me, and helping Lu means helping Zheng. Why do we need such a great gift?"
Han Hu personally stepped forward and helped Shusun Bao up, his words full of respect.
After all, they are now both members of the Jin Dynasty with the surname Ji. It is not a problem to say that they are one family.
At this time, Li Ran turned to look at Shu Sunbao and asked:
"The Ji family is vicious. This time, I framed the doctor and almost made him want to live in Chu country. But I don't know what countermeasures the doctor can think of?"
He brought Shusun Bao to Zheng Guo's residence in order to discuss this matter.
After all, if he was stationed in the Lu State, he couldn't be sure whether there would be Ji's eyes and ears among them.
Therefore, what we said in Zheng Camp at this time can be relatively comprehensive.
"What does Ziming mean?..."
Of course Shusun Bao had some ideas, but he still wanted to hear Li Ran's opinion first.
"But I thought that the Ji family was causing harm to the country, and that the brothers would kill each other like this, and that they would not end well in the future!"
"And this time after the doctor returns, he may be able to strike first!"
It's time to move Ji's family.
The purpose of this visit was to shake things up and see what kind of power was hidden behind the Ji family.
Secondly, it was also to test the Shu Niu who was far away in Lu State.
However, he naturally couldn't tell Shusun Bao about this second purpose.
When Shusun Bao heard the sound, he couldn't help but frown and said:
"Having said that, if we take action forcefully, I'm afraid..."
What he was worried about was that if the Ji family became ruthless, Lu would suffer serious internal injuries.
After all, Ji's tree has big roots and deep roots. If it needs to be cleared away, the Lu State will definitely suffer a lot.
"It doesn't matter. After the doctor returns home, he can pretend to be sick all the way and order people to work hard to report the matter to the Marquis of Lu. The Marquis of Lu will definitely send people all the way to express condolences. At this time, the doctor can make the matter public. Moreover, in the suburbs of Qufu He deliberately stopped and just said that he was a guilty person and had no face to face the Marquis of Lu. In this way, everyone in the Lu Kingdom would blame the Ji family and kiss their uncle and Sun family. At that time, the Marquis of Lu could go along with the situation and punish the Ji family!"
Li Ran came up with a plan to help his uncle Sunbao return to Lu and then attack him again, dragging down the Ji family as well.
Li Ran's plan was very thorough, but he didn't intend to destroy the Ji family in one go. Because that is almost impossible. But if he doesn't take revenge, how can he endure it?
When Han Hu and Shu Sunbao heard this plan, they couldn't help but nod, obviously agreeing with Li Ran's move.
"In addition, the doctor should pay more attention to the Qi people lurking in Qufu. Especially the businessmen of Qi!"
"From them, the doctor may be able to find some more clues. However, since these people are hiding behind the Ji family, it must not be that simple!"
