As the secrets of the underground organization were gradually revealed by Qing Feng, Li Ran was really shocked.
He didn't expect that these ancients could come up with so many tricks when carrying out underground activities, and they were so mysterious and unpredictable, and the safety factor was astonishingly high.
It's too scary. They are all ancients from more than 2,000 years ago. Where did they receive any special training?
Could it be that they have explored and practiced this step by step on their own? !
At this moment, Li Ran just wanted to give the founder of Dark Walker a thumbs up and shout: Awesome!
"What did you think of?"
Seeing that Li Ran had not spoken for a long time, Qingfeng thought that Li Ran had thought of something, so he immediately asked.
Li Ran heard the sound, sighed slightly and laughed:
"Haha, Li originally thought that you were just a loose alliance of interests, but now it seems that you are looking down on you and thinking too highly of yourself."
Li Ran had to admit that this was indeed a mistake.
He now had to re-examine the situation at hand from a different angle.
Unexpectedly, his sincerity was ridiculed by Qing Feng:
"Haha... You, Li Ran, are indeed outstanding. Your unpredictable skills can even be considered to be outstanding among the others."
"But there are countless high-ranking people in the world, and there are even more people outside the world. Is it absurd to try to pry into the world from the bottom of a well?"
Never underestimate the wisdom of the ancients at any time.
This was originally considered a "good intention" from Qing Feng.
But who knew that this kind intention also aroused Li Ran's competitive spirit.
If he were to compete in boxing and kicking, he, Li Ran, might have just raised the white flag and surrendered from the beginning. After all, he had a deep and clear understanding of his own boxing and kicking.
But if it was a test of wits, then why had Li Ran ever been afraid?
I saw him replying quite disapprovingly at this time:
"Oh? The doctor said so, and Li became a little more interested."
"I, Li Ziming, have no other hobbies in my life. Fighting with wits and courage only accounts for half of it. Now I want to know what the so-called 'outsider' like you is capable of!"
"Let's get back to the subject. Since you were one of the 'Seven Lords', why don't you know who replaced you in Qi State?"
It stands to reason that when Qingfeng stepped down from his position as chief, he should know who would replace him.
However, this point was not mentioned in the information Qingfeng said before, which made Li Ran feel a little confused.
Facing this question, Qing Feng's eyes suddenly showed a trace of reminiscence.
After a long time, he finally said:
"The reason why I was reduced to running away from the Kingdom of Wu back then was a complete coincidence. To be honest, I still haven't figured out what happened at that time. And the people behind the scenes were almost from the beginning to the end. He has never shown up, and as for the person who will replace me, I have no way of knowing."
At first glance, these words sounded like clever words.
But Li Ran did not doubt the authenticity of his words.
Because he probably knew the whole process of Qingfeng being expelled from Qi State.
It’s a long story, but a long story short.
When Qingfeng was in charge of the state affairs of Qi, he had a favorite named Lu Pu'ai.
In order to befriend Qingfeng, Lu Pu'ao even went so far as to let his wife have an affair with Qingfeng.
Since Qingfeng had an affair with the wife of his retainer Lu Pu'a, he moved directly to Lu Pu'a's home for the sake of convenience. From then on, it can be said that they drank, played, and indulged in absurd and lewd ways day and night.
And his power as Prime Minister was slowly handed over to his son Qingshe.
However, the excitement and suspense of this story is that since his son Qingshe took over the power of Qi, it was Lu Pukui (Lu Pu'an's brother) who was appointed by himself, and the same person who served Qi. Wang He of Zhuang Gong was killed!
Moreover, these two people were originally runaways who fled to the State of Lu. One was recalled by his father Qingfeng, and the other was recalled by Qingshe himself.
But I never thought that it would be these two people who finally overthrew the power of the Qi Guoqing family!
Among them, the most suspicious point is that Qingshe controlled all the military and political power in the capital at that time. According to Qingshe's strength at the time, let alone two guards, even the Marquis of Qi at that time would not be able to do anything to Qingshe.
But Qing She was killed inexplicably, and after killing Qing She, the two were able to directly control the military, and even successfully prevented Qing Feng's counterattack.
In the end, Qingfeng not only lost his precious son, but also lost all power in Qi State in a short period of time, forcing him to flee Wu State.
Of course, no one would believe it if Qi Jinggong was not involved behind the scenes.
However, the thing is so strange. Li Ran has actually seen this record in several historical materials in the Luoyi Cangzhu Room. However, it clearly involves the transfer of the highest power in the Qi State, but the Marquis of Qi is not seen participating in it. records.
What made Li Ran even more confused was that Qingfeng fled to the State of Lu at first, and then went to the State of Wu.
According to the timeline, the actual person in power of the Lu State at that time was none other than Ji Sunsu, one of the seven principals of the so-called Dark Walkers.
Could it be said that the Qingfeng Rebellion was actually planned by the Dark Walkers? Is it essentially a power and personnel adjustment within the Dark Walkers?
The reason why Li Ran did not doubt the authenticity of what Qingfeng said just now was precisely because if the Qingfeng rebellion was indeed possible, it was a deliberate arrangement by the secret followers. Qingfeng himself naturally has no way of knowing who will succeed Qingfeng.
Later, Qingfeng fled the Kingdom of Wu and became the king of Zhongli. To a certain extent, it can be regarded as a fallback path left by the secret followers for Qingfeng.
As for why it was arranged for Qingfeng to become the king of Zhongli, it may involve the dispute between Wu and Chu.
Back to the topic, Li Ran did not doubt Qingfeng's words, but his suspicion about the cause of Qingfeng's rebellion did not weaken.
On the contrary, it aroused his greater curiosity.
"Do you still remember the situation when it happened?"
The reason why he asked this matter was because he needed to determine whether the Qingfeng Rebellion was planned by the secret gang.
If so, then the power of the current Dark Walkers can be seen from this.
If not, then what role does the current Qi Hou play in this? Was it the work of other ministers in Qi, or was it the personal instruction of the Marquis of Qi?
The joints involved are very critical to Li Ran's judgment of the current situation.
"Haha, young man, it's not a good thing to expose people's scars. If you do this at a young age, aren't you afraid of dying early?"
What happened back then was a great shame for Qingfeng.
Over the years, he tried his best to avoid anyone mentioning this matter, and in the entire Zhongli country, no one even dared to talk about it in private.
Now that he was a prisoner, he was brought out in such a grand manner by Li Ran. Naturally, he felt a little unhappy.
However, Li Ran's answer was even more direct:
"The number of people's lifespan is the number of days. If you die young, Li will follow suit."
In short, I have no control over what God wants to do.
But I really have to take care of the people in this world.
When Qingfeng heard this, he knew that he could not avoid this matter, so he could only sneer.
"There is not much time left for the doctor, so it would be better if the doctor makes it clear earlier."
Li Ran had to remind him once again. After all, he was patient, but that didn't mean that the spies who were hiding in the Chu camp were also patient.
At this time, Sun Wu looked outside again.
At this moment, the huge Zuojun camp was as peaceful as ever.
There was still no movement from Chu's spies, which was not good news for Li Ran.
Qingfeng also glanced out along the curtain that Sun Wu had just lifted, his eyes showing sadness and sadness for a moment.
