Just as Guan Cong said, even if Li Ran knew everything Guan Cong said tonight, what would he do? What can be changed?
King Chu's self-aggrandizement has now reached a peak. Not to mention Li Ran, even Wu Ju's advice turned a deaf ear to him.
Therefore, even if Li Ran told the truth about what happened tonight, King Chu would probably just say "haha" after hearing it.
Guan Cong grasped the current situation very accurately. He knew that no one could stop him from completing all this now, so he chose to come and tell Li Ran all this in a seemingly "rash" way.
From this point of view, this person's mind is really not thoughtful.
Li Ran didn't talk. In fact, he had nothing to say. After all, as Guan Cong said, he really couldn't do anything at this moment.
When Guan Cong saw this, his eyes turned slightly, and he bowed towards Li Ran again and said:
"Young Pavilion Master is about to leave for a long distance. I never dare to leave you alone, so I came here to see you off. I wish Young Pavilion Master a safe return to Zheng."
"in addition……"
After saying this, Guan Cong paused slightly.
Li Ran raised his hand to signal him to continue.
Just listen to Guan Congshi continue to say:
"Since I got to know the Young Pavilion Master, I have offended many times. This is really unavoidable, so I hope the Young Pavilion Master will not mind. Tonight's conversation is the first time that the two of us can be so honest with each other. That's it. , I will no longer hide it.”
"To be honest, I actually have a merciless request."
When Li Ran heard that Guan Cong suddenly complimented him like this, he couldn't help but be startled, and then listened to Guan Cong continue to speak:
"Although I want to support the fourth prince to the throne, I also hope to take this opportunity to take revenge. However, the fourth prince is narrow-minded, jealous of talents, and insidious. After I help him to the throne, I'm afraid Nor will it be tolerated.”
"Therefore, I have to find a new place for myself in advance."
"Young Pavilion Master is reckless and unparalleled in his wisdom. What he will do in the future will surely be passed down through the ages. I have many admirations for you, and I sincerely ask Young Pavilion Master to take him in in the future!"
After saying this, Guan Cong bowed and worshiped again, the look of respect on his face was beyond words for a moment.
It turns out that this is the real purpose of today’s meditation.
As his grand plan came to an end, Guan Cong knew that he would soon be liquidated by Prince Qiji. Therefore, finding a stable place for himself in advance has become the most urgent thing for him.
Looking at the whole world, it is obvious that Li Ran is the most suitable one.
In addition, Li Ran was originally the master of the Daoji Pavilion. If Guan Cong didn't follow him, who else could he follow?
"The doctor said this, which makes me very frightened."
"How could he be so virtuous that he could have a genius like the doctor accompanying him..."
Li Ran smiled bitterly and waved his hand, neither refusing directly nor directly agreeing.
Li Ran still has to be wary of such people.
Before, he always thought that Guan Cong was with King Ding Chu. After all, on the surface, the relationship between the two of them was so close. Unexpectedly, Guan Cong turned out to be a hook in the end! And it’s also the hook of Prince Qiji’s men!
With such a scheming mind and such a cunning and feminine character, how could he calmly recruit such a person under his command?
Upon hearing this, Kuan Cong immediately said:
"Young Pavilion Master's words are serious. Everyone in the world knows about Young Pavilion Master's abilities. If you are lucky enough to be able to follow Young Pavilion Master, you are truly lucky."
"When the work here is over, I will make a copy of all the books in the collection room operating in Chu State and send them to Zheng State at that time. One is as a meeting gift for serving the Young Pavilion Master, and the other is to be prepared. I thought the Young Pavilion Master might need it from time to time."
As mentioned earlier, the Chu State Collection Room is an extremely large intelligence organization. The basis for the Chu State's southern and northern wars was largely due to these top-secret files collected in the collection room.
This shows the effectiveness of these collections.
If Gu Cong can really make a copy of all the books in the collection room and hand them over to Li Ran, it will definitely be of great benefit to Li Ran and others in making decisions in the future.
Even Li Ran couldn't help but feel slightly moved.
But when his heart moved, fear suddenly emerged in his heart.
Before Guan Cong, he had never seen such a cunning and scheming person. Whether it was Ji Sun Yiru, Shu Niu or Prince Qiji he met in the Chu Kingdom. Compared with Guan Cong, these people were simply incredible. It's a small witch that looks like a big witch, and it's not worth mentioning.
Guan Cong is not only thoughtful, but also extremely smooth in his work. The layout is so deep that no one can see any flaws at all.
If Guan Cong hadn't taken the initiative to reveal his identity tonight, Li Ran would never have thought of this.
And how could he not feel afraid that such a terrifying person would take the initiative to surrender to him now?
So in the end, he did not give a positive answer.
After Guan Cong said everything he wanted to say, he said goodbye and left.
…
The next day, Li Ran handed over all the treasury of the official residence to the housekeeper and left a letter on his eucalyptus. Afterwards, he and Ji Le, as well as Sun Wu, Chu Dang and Zheng Guo personally accompanied hundreds of people and set off back to Zheng Guo early in the morning.
Now that he has decided to leave, there is nothing to miss. Even if the Chu country has beautiful scenery, it is already a passing thing for Li Ran.
Since he no longer places his hopes on this land, he will naturally not place his hopes on the King of Chu.
But along the way, Li Ran was always a little depressed.
On the one hand, it was because of Guan Cong's words that night that Li Ran developed a feeling of compassion for the King of Chu.
On the other hand, it is also because of everything happening in Chu State. After all, all of this was more or less created by him, Li Ran. As Guan Cong said, the first half of the Chu Kingdom's game was decided by him, Li Ran, and now that he is about to leave, seeing that everything he has created will eventually come to nothing, the loss in his heart is inevitable. .
And Ji Le, who was already pregnant, couldn't bear the bumps, so the journey was very slow.
It was precisely because of this slow pace that Ji Le had time to chat alone with Li Ran.
Ji Le looked at the depressed Li Ran and seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Why does Le'er feel that the relationship between her husband and the King of Chu now feels like the relationship between Le'er and her husband?"
Ji Le tilted his little head and stared at Li Ran with a pair of big watery eyes.
Hearing the sound, Li Ran, who was thinking, was stunned for a moment, and it took him a long time to react and asked:
"Oh? Where did you start talking about this?"
Ji Le said half-jokingly:
"Is that what my husband often uses to make fun of Leer? 'Women are difficult to raise. If you are close, you will feel inferior, and if you are far away, you will resent'."
Yes, isn't this a true portrayal of Li Ran's current relationship with King Chu?
This kind of relationship that is constantly being sorted out and messed up has always been lingering in Li Ran's mind, making it difficult for him to completely let go.
