When Fan Yang heard Zichan ask this, he sighed as if nothing had happened:
"Martinez came to Zheng State this time. Firstly, he came to pay homage to the new king of Zheng State. Since Zheng Bo succeeded to the throne, my country has not sent anyone to congratulate him. After all, this is inconsistent with etiquette. Secondly, he came to pay homage to the new king of Zheng State. The State of Jin has come especially to express its condolences to Si Zishang and Feng Boshi. Of course, these three visits are to see you, the only remaining official Gongsun among the Mu tribe in Zheng State." (Si Dai, Zi Zishang)
After Zheng Boning came to the throne, Feng Duan began to make trouble, and the Zheng Dynasty entered a period of disputes and chaos. The Jin Dynasty only sent an envoy to congratulate him, and no heavyweights came.
Therefore, Fan Yang's visit this time is in line with the etiquette of a great country.
The Si family and the Feng family were the six ministers of the Zheng State. When they suddenly passed away, it was natural for the Jin State to send a high minister to express their condolences.
As for coming to visit Zichan, to put it bluntly, it was just to check on Zichan's physical condition.
It can be said that Zichan's health is closely related to the safety of Zheng State, and it is the top priority of Zheng State!
Zichan smiled calmly and said:
"Qiao is already dying, and there is actually nothing to see."
Fan Yang was startled for a moment, but he didn't expect Zichan to say it so straightforwardly, which made him not know what to say.
"The doctor's words are serious. Just rest peacefully and your body will recover..."
After Fan Yang said this, he seemed quite cold. At this time, he could only think quickly and asked:
"That's right! Regarding the death of Si clan leader and Dr. Boshi, Yang Yang actually has always had a question."
"I think Uncle Liang has actually seen Yang Yang before. I never thought that after death, he would turn into a ghost and come to seek his life. Are there really ghosts in this world?"
Fan Yang's question actually had something else in mind, which was to ask in a sideways manner: Has Zheng Guo been stabilized now?
Obviously, if Zheng Guo is stable, then he will not dare to act rashly again. However, if Zheng Guo reveals even half of the discord between the Qing clan, then there is still an opportunity to take advantage of it!
By then, it would be relatively easy for Fan Yang to control Zheng Guo!
"Haha, of course there are ghosts in this world! When a person is born, he first changes into a physical form, and the spirit that exists dependent on the body is called soul! Soul belongs to yin, and the soul that relies on yang energy is called soul. If a person occupies a high position, he will enjoy the things There are many species, and the soul is strong. Even if a man or a woman has little support, his soul will still be with him after a violent death. He can still depend on the human body and do harm to others for his lust. He has been your minister for three generations and enjoyed the support of animals. It’s very grand. If he was killed without any disease, wouldn’t it be natural for him to become a powerful ghost?!”
"Haha, I think I have been supported and received a very high position throughout my life! Therefore, after I leave, I think I should be able to turn into a ghost to protect my country, Zheng."
Zichan's words were also very obvious in their intention to fight back.
In fact, how could Zichan himself believe in these theories about strange powers and deranged gods? At that time, he defied all opinions and refused to take the jade to "bribe" Bi Zao, the "prophet" who had issued an early warning of the "Four Kingdoms Fire".
After the great fire in Zhengyi, there were rumors that the "dragon" appeared in Weiyuan, so the people of Zheng wanted to sacrifice the "dragon" again, but they were all rejected by Zi Duan.
Precisely because of his "disbelief in evil", he was later used by Feng Duan and others, and became a sharp weapon for them to attack Zichan's political failure!
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Zichan to believe in the ghosts and gods of this world!
However, now he is still talking about the metaphysics of ghosts and gods to an outsider "against his will". Why is this?
In fact, the reason is very simple.
The subtext of Zichan’s remarks is nothing more than:
Since Bo You can turn into a ghost and kill the enemy, then if the Jin State is unfavorable to the Zheng State in the future, then can't his son Zi Chan turn into a ghost and let the enemy's head disappear?
Of course Fan Yang could also hear the intimidation in Zichan's words.
"Haha, I'm afraid Dr. Zichan is different from me, right? Bo Youna died a sudden death and still had plenty of energy, but Dr. Zichan is now..."
Fan Yang didn't say what he said next, but his meaning was very obvious, that is, Zichan died at the end of his life and should not be included in this category. In other words, even if your Zichan is dead, then he is dead, no. It is said that existence can also turn into a vicious ghost.
To put it bluntly, no matter how powerful Dr. Zichan is, he will no longer be able to influence the affairs of the world after his death.
Zichan couldn't help but laugh, breathed out, and coughed a few times:
"Haha, although Qiao is poor, he is devoted to serving the country, so his resentment is not small."
"In addition, I, the successor of Zheng Guo, will treat Qiao Qiao as usual in the future. As long as Qiao Guo's support continues, if Zheng Guo is in trouble in the future, hehe, Qiao Guo will show his talent!"
Zichan's words were quite clear. In fact, to put it bluntly, he believed that with the support of You Ji, Yin Duan, Li Ran and others, Zheng Guo could regain its glory.
Therefore, Zheng Guo is definitely not someone to be trifled with.
When Fan Yang saw Zichan's answer, he was quick-thinking, clear-minded and impeccable, and he also knew that Zheng Guo's energy was not exhausted.
So, he couldn't help but laugh, and used this to hide his true intention.
"What the doctor said is absolutely true. It seems that Zheng Guo has a successor, so there is no need to worry about Martingale."
"Haha, if Fan Zhongjun can maintain peace with Zheng State in the future, it will naturally benefit the people of both countries!"
"Don't worry, doctor, Martingale has learned a lesson!"
Fan Yang finally got an answer. Naturally, he clearly understood Zichan's warning.
Afterwards, Fan Yang said goodbye thoughtfully and left, while Zichan told You Ji and Li Ran a few words before letting them all go back.
You Ji and Li Ran walked out of Zichan's mansion and looked at each other. You Ji sighed:
"Ziming, I'm afraid the doctor's time is really running out, and it's hard for Ji to be stubborn about some of his words. But Ji really doesn't agree with his harsh treatment of the people! Zichan... is he really confused? "
When Li Ran heard this, he bowed respectfully and replied:
"Doctor Zichan, he used water and fire as a metaphor, which is actually very reasonable. Doctor Cai also saw that Zheng State is currently experiencing internal and external troubles. Today Fan Yangtuo came here in the name of condolences. It was called a visit, but it was actually a test. This is evident from this!”
"If Dr. Zichan is here, he can stabilize the situation internally and externally. But once he dies, if the doctor doesn't use thunderous means, he will probably plunge the Zheng Kingdom into chaos! It will be a big mistake by then, but the doctor can't help but I regret it!”
You Ji frowned and thought for a long time.
"Well, this Fan Yang has come sooner or later, but he has chosen this time. His coming to our country of Zheng this time is definitely not as simple as he said, and he does have ulterior motives!"
"Yes, it is not easy for the doctor to calm the people and support the clan at home, neither to be humble nor to be arrogant to the outside world, so that Zheng Guo can handle the diplomacy of various countries with ease. Now that he is persuading him with good words, this is all for Zheng Guoer. I hope that the doctor You must pay attention to this statement in the future and never take it lightly!”
Youji walked a few more steps and suddenly stopped:
"Hey... I hope God can protect Dr. Zichan's safety. Let's not talk about this. In the future, Ji will make his own decision!"
Afterwards, Li Ran bowed his head and watched You Ji go away.
…
Li Ran returned to the Ji Mansion and went to the backyard. He saw Ji Le holding her daughter. The eyes she looked at her daughter were still so gentle. If she remembered the tragedy yesterday, the anger in her heart was obvious. Yes, but with a husband and a daughter, she gradually became more relaxed.
Li Ran came to Ji Le. When Ji Le saw Li Ran, scenes from the past came to his mind. He looked at the daughter in his arms and smiled sweetly.
"Li Ran, you're back!"
Li Ran took his daughter from Ji Le's arms.
"Let's move to the manor in the suburbs tomorrow. It's quiet there and we can stay away from the noise. It's also good for the children!"
Ji Le nodded obediently.
"Everything depends on your husband's arrangement."
Early the next morning, Li Ran and Ji Le held their daughters in their arms and, escorted by Sun Wu and Fan Li, headed to the suburban manor. They passed by the rural school where Li Ran and Ji Le met each other.
The two people on the carriage looked at each other and smiled. At this moment, Ji Le felt sweet in his heart.
The first thing that caught their eyes was the golf course. They also recalled every bit of the past at the same time. They were all in a happy mood. There was also a blush on Jiele's face, which was losing blood.
