Zhao Yang sighed:
"So, this is another key point. If we don't take action in advance, I'm afraid that the Handan Zhao family will stand with the Fan family and the Zhonghang family sooner or later. But... if we take action in advance..."
"Although it is said that the one who strikes first is stronger and the one who strikes later suffers, after all, 'the one who causes trouble dies'. If someone else is like a mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind. They come to me to settle the accounts with the Queen of Zhao, what will happen then? "
When Li Ran heard this question, he couldn't help stroking his beard:
"So, first of all, the general needs to get the 'inner palace', so that the Marquis of Jin can stand firmly on the side of the general! As long as the Marquis of Jin can speak, the general will have the protection of public opinion! Secondly, it will It’s time to see how the Handan Zhao family will act! The general might as well set up a game first to frighten the enemy and make Handan Zhao Wu lose his composure first, so that he might be able to solve it easily!"
Zhao Yang nodded slowly.
"The first thing is certainly not difficult to do. But the second thing... I wonder what your advice is, sir?"
Although Li Ran said this, it was impossible for him to have a more detailed countermeasure at this time.
However, now that the strategy has been clarified, other matters can be discussed later. Anyway, at this time, Li Ran had actually made up his mind to assist Zhao Yang and work together with him on major events!
"Haha, although there is no good solution yet, we don't have to rush this matter! After all, the most dangerous thing for Zhao now is still Zhao's own strength!"
"Now the battle between the Zhao, Han, and Wei families and the Fan, Zhongxing, and Handan Zhao families is about to begin. And because the Fan family has a marriage with the Zhou royal family, and the Zhonghang family also has an intermarriage with the Liu family of the Zhou family, there will be a lot of complications. Once this happens, they will definitely try their best to find foreign aid everywhere to form an anti-Zhao alliance with Jindong as its stronghold!"
"At that time, the Zhao family was in the most danger! And the so-called military strategy is just to use the right combination to win by surprise! Although the general has a strange plan now, he still needs to combine it with his own strength! Otherwise, All the strange conspiracies are just hanging in the air."
"Therefore, I would like to ask the general to cultivate his political integrity internally, to be harmonious to the ruler and the people externally, and to accumulate a lot of experience, so as to be fully prepared for the final decision in the future!"
When Zhao Yang heard this, he couldn't help but nodded in approval and said:
"What you said is true!"
At this time, Zhao Yang suddenly stood up from his seat and bowed deeply towards Li Ran:
"Sir, you are indeed a great talent. I hope that you will condescend to go to the Zhao family. With your help, Yang Yang will feel at ease!"
Li Ran smiled slightly and showed off the last moment:
"Li Ran has already given me all my advice on this strategy, so I have nothing to complain about. Now that I have made it clear, there is no need for me to go to the Jin Kingdom, right?"
When Zhao Yang heard this, he couldn't help but look a little anxious. He immediately stood up and knelt down towards Li Ran:
"Please sir, please don't refuse. The purpose of Yang Yang's coming here is to ask Mr. Yang to come out. Mr. Yang's remarks really enlightened Yang Yang! Yang only hopes that he can often listen to Mr. Yang's teachings in the future. If Yang wants to To conquer the world, if you don’t have a teacher to help you, I’m afraid you will inevitably go astray in the future! If Yang Yang can stay true to his original intention and persevere, he will definitely need his guidance!”
When Li Ran saw this, he didn't dare to be rude and quickly reached out to support him.
"What the general said is really shocking!"
Zhao Yang said sincerely:
"Martin Yang is not talented, he is young and has little wisdom. Otherwise, Yang Yang would not have fallen into such a big trap as Fan Yang when he was young! Although he has made amends afterwards, some big mistakes cannot be changed once they are made. !”
"Now Zhao Yang can be said to be 'trembling with fear, as if facing an abyss, as if walking on thin ice'! The mistakes Zhao Yang made before cannot be made up for. If he makes a big mistake again in the future, won't my Zhao family be in danger?!"
"Although Yan Yu and Yang Hu are both resourceful and resourceful people, their strategies are not the way of a king's assistant. Yang Yang knows that he has little talent and little knowledge and is not familiar with the king's affairs, so in the future, I hope you can always give me some guidance!"
Li Ran shook his head again, but his eyes were evasive:
"Hey...it's just that Li Ran really doesn't want to make the same mistake again!"
"As the saying goes, the way of heaven is constant, but people's hearts are changeable... I, Li Ran, am nearly half a century old, but how many 'Ming Masters' have I not encountered? The general's words today are spoken from the heart, but in the future..."
Before Li Ran could finish speaking, Zhao Yang unsheathed his sword immediately!
This time, even Li Ran was shocked!
I saw Zhao Yang raising his sword to the sky, holding his head high and saying:
"Master Yang has already understood what he is worried about! Today, I, Zhao Yang, swear an oath to the heavens! If I, Zhao Yang, have my husband come out to help me, if I dare to disobey my husband's orders in the future, or bring disaster to the world, I will definitely do it." He must die a good death, his head is in a different place, his body is in Fenshui, and his head is in Zhang!"
After Zhao Yang made the oath, he made a decisive decision and directly chopped down the table with his big sword.
And the desk in Li Ran's house was also split into two pieces!
Zhao Yang sheathed his sword and knelt down on one knee again.
Li Ran was shocked on the spot, but seeing that he was swearing such a poisonous oath, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and helped him up:
"You don't have to do this General!"
Zhao Yang continued:
"Luan Yu has also told me about the affairs of King Chu Ling, Wang Zichao, and Duke Zhao of Lu. Therefore, sir, please rest assured, I, Zhao Yang, will not let your hard work go in vain!"
Li Ran was silent for a while, and then he spoke again:
"To be honest, General, although I have been wandering for half my life and my hair is turning gray, my determination to help the world has never diminished at all. However, I have been struggling to find a wise king, so I have been hesitant about coming out of the mountain! "
"Although the appearance of the general rekindled Li Ran's confidence,... the general had similarities with King Chu Ling, Wang Zichao and even Lu Zhaogong before. The ambition of King Chu Ling, the gentleness of Wang Zichao, and Lu Zhaogong Duke Zhao’s etiquette seems to be embodied in the general’s body!”
"It is precisely because of this that King Chu Ling's stubbornness, Wang Zichao's great achievements, and Lu Zhaogong's Confucianism made Li Ran's heart pierce even more!"
"However, what I'm worried about is not the immediate situation, but whether the general will change his original intention, so that the great cause of helping the world will still fall short in the end!"
When Zhao Yang heard this, he immediately raised his hands and said:
"Zhao Yang doesn't dare! Now that I've sworn an oath, how dare I break it?!"
Li Ran smiled:
"In that case, after one day, I am willing to go to Jiangcheng with the general!"
Zhao Yang was overjoyed when he heard this, but immediately became worried about the long nights and endless dreams.
"Why don't you leave early tomorrow morning..."
Li Ran waved his hand:
"Please forgive me, general. Li Ran still has some matters that need to be dealt with urgently. Since he is the Taishi of Zhouyi, he can't leave without saying goodbye, right? In addition, I also have some family affairs that need to be taken care of."
At this time, Zhao Yang reacted very quickly and immediately thought of another thing!
I saw him suddenly slap his head and say:
"Oh! Yang Yang once heard that General Yan said that my husband is about to renew his marriage! How about... how about you come with me to Jiangcheng to take care of things?"
Li Ran smiled bitterly:
"It's not in a hurry...and there may be some changes in this matter...!"
Zhao Yang Ziran didn't know much about this, but he couldn't ask in detail, so he had to agree.
Since Li Ran had decided to leave the mountain, he talked with Zhao Yang all night long by candlelight. It was not until dawn broke that Zhao Yang reluctantly said goodbye to him. They also agreed to go to Jiangcheng together one day later.
As for Guan Cong, he had been waiting outside the house, as if he hadn't slept all night. After Zhao Yang left, he happily came in to meet Li Ran.
Li Ran saw his happy expression and couldn't help but smile slightly:
"Ziyu, why did you stay up so late?"
Guan Cong said jokingly:
"Haha, watching the sky at night..."
Li Ran coughed dryly and interrupted Guan Cong's nonsense:
"Okay, okay, how do you think about it, am I still not clear about it?"
Guan Cong also smiled slightly.
"When Guan Cong saw Zhao Yang coming to look for his lord, he held a candle and talked for several hours at night. Although he didn't know what he and his lord were talking about, Guan Cong was so excited that he couldn't sleep!"
When Li Ran heard this, he couldn't help but sneer, but then he immediately spoke seriously to Guan Cong:
"It's just... Ziyu, I still can't take you with me this time! You still have to stay in Chengzhou. In addition to guarding the post of Taishi for me, you also have to shoulder the responsibility of protecting my son Liguang and Miss Yue. comprehensive!"
Guan Cong smiled and said:
"Haha, please don't worry, my lord! My lord only has to do important things. He will not only take good care of my lord. Moreover, if my lord is in need, he can just send someone to write a letter! Watch the big net set by Cong. It’s been a long time since I’ve moved!”
