I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 65 The Routine Is Too Deep
Although Ji Le is a daughter, how can her affection for the Ji clan be unmatched by others?

Therefore, as a member of the Jishi, it is difficult for her to keep the matter of the Jishi out of it.

"Miss Ji... What are you doing?"

Li Ran hurriedly helped him up, but his face seemed a little displeased:

"This time Li Ran was able to come to Zheng safely. If it wasn't for your father's help, I'm afraid I would have been thrown into the wilderness long ago. If I want to thank you, I should..."

"Brother Ziming, you don't need to comfort me, I understand what you mean."

Ji Le put away her past mischievousness and innocence, showing a rare stern look on her face.

She looked at Li Ran and continued:
"No matter whether Brother Meng did it intentionally or unintentionally this time, this matter is extremely inappropriate for my Jishi. Once it gets out, my Jishi might be ashamed to face the world."

"Brother Ziming stopped my father with his words, and that is my benefactor of the entire Ji family. As for my brother Meng, it is not a problem if brother Ziming has doubts. Whatever should be done, so be."

A girl who can travel around the world alone, a girl who can sneak out of Zhengyi to visit relatives in the country of Lu, once she gets serious, her intelligence and wisdom will be revealed immediately.

Others may not know it, but Ji Le spent the longest time with Li Ran in Lu State, and he already knows Li Ran's habits well.

So she knew very well that when Li Ran asked who proposed the Jishi's food sales plan just now, Li Ran had already become suspicious of the people inside the Jishi.

And as the question and answer deepened, it became obvious that the object of Li Ran's suspicion was naturally her Brother Meng——Shu Niu.

So what she just said just now was to let Li Ran not have a psychological burden. If her brother Meng really had some problems, then what to do, then what to do.There was no need to be timid because of her.

Hearing this, Li Ran immediately looked at her with admiration.

"Hehe, you little girl, did you expect to be so smart? Before I opened my mouth, your words have dispelled most of my worries. Hey, it seems that I have underestimated you before." ?”

To ease the atmosphere, Li Ran joked with her half-jokingly for a moment.

Hearing the sound of the festival music, she, who was originally serious, immediately gave a "puchi" smile, a look of pride appeared on her beautiful face, and she raised the tip of her nose and said:
"Hmph, this girl has always been so smart, okay? It's just that Brother Ziming doesn't know."

"Yes, yes, I'm afraid even your father and your uncle are not as smart as you!"

Li Ran spread his hands, and hastily admitted Ji Le's boast.And the atmosphere became lively for a while.

"But having said that, about your brother Meng... I really have some doubts."

"Oh? How do you say this?"

When it came to the topic, Ji Le immediately asked seriously.

I just heard Li Ran continue to say:
"The first time I visited your house before, your brother Meng seemed to have a faint murderous intent towards me. I have never quite understood why, but after listening to what your father said today, I have some clues."

"what?"

After listening to the festival music, I was also surprised.But when I recalled the scene at the Jijia, I felt that it was indeed as Li Ran just said.

But she couldn't understand why her brother Meng hated Li Ran so much, she couldn't help but cast a curious look at Li Ran.

"Just imagine, this disaster in Weiguo, even if you Jishi transported this batch of grain to Weiguo for sale, the profits you got would be nothing more than a drop in the bucket for you Jishi. The state of Zheng is all raising food for disaster relief. So, even if your priests transport the food to the state of Wei first, how much profit can you make?"

"Besides, it's now arranged according to the most normal time point. Even if you don't have officials to hold you back in raising food for your family, it should start after Qi State decided to raise food for disaster relief."

"After all, the disaster in Weiguo has been going on for some time. If you really want to go to Weiguo to sell food, it's too late to react."

Hearing Ji Le, he couldn't help but feel that what Li Ran said made some sense.Then, Li Ran continued:
"In other words, could this matter be aimed at me, Li Ran?"

"If this is the case, the old suzerain will suspect that I have secretly colluded with the state of Qi and deliberately dealt with Jishi. That's why your father was so angry at him before. However, your father is not sure whether it is true or not, so there is a today's visit."

"Besides, if I fail to convince the old suzerain and doctor Zichan today, it is obvious that I will not be able to stay in this country of Zheng. Do you think so?"

Ji Le thought about it again, and felt that it was true.She should have felt the deepest feelings about her father's various prejudices against Li Ran before.

As Li Ran said, if he can't persuade Jixian and Zichan today, he will be kicked out of Zhengyi within three days.

Because neither Zichan nor Jixian will allow a person who wants to deal with Jishi and Zheng Guo to stay in Zhengyi.

"Brother Ziming means... this is a trap?"

Ji Le seemed to realize something, and looked a little surprised.

I saw Li Ran nodded, a faint smile flashed between his brows, and then continued:
"It's hard to say whether it's a trap or not. But one thing is certain, that is, since the old suzerain has gradually entrusted Ji's foreign business to you, brother Meng Shuniu, it is enough to show that this person must be There are some outstanding points, otherwise, I would not have gained such trust from my father."

"However, the act of helping the country this time, no matter from all aspects, seems out of date for the priests. This is really not a good move. Moreover, it is too coincidental to be connected with the Qi State's food and disaster relief. some?…"

At this point, Li Ran's expression changed suddenly, and he stopped suddenly.

Ji Le was surprised and said:
"what happened?"

Li Ran's eyes rolled sharply, and he muttered in thought:
"Could it be that he knew in advance that the Qi Congress would transport grain?..."

After a while, Li Ran suddenly realized the source of his previous feeling.

With a few words and a few words, he assisted Yang Tongue to persuade Qi State to send food to Wei State for disaster relief. Could it be that Qi State leaked the news early in the morning?And after the news was obtained by Zheng Guo's Shu Niu, it was used to design and frame him?

But he and Shu Niu had never met each other before, so why did they treat him so cruelly?Did he not hesitate to provoke the entire Ji family to facilitate this matter?
Thinking of this, Li Ran couldn't help but feel a shudder running down his spine, and felt a slight chill hit him.If the news leaked out in Qi State, it means that this force that wanted to put him to death was far more terrifying than he thought!
"Brother Ziming?"

Looking at Li Ran who was lost in thought, Ji Le couldn't help but cried out curiously.

After hearing the sound, Li Ran came back to his senses, stared at Ji Le for a long time before saying:
"Brother Meng, standing up the cow...what does it have to do with the Ji family of Lu State?"

After all, it was Brother Meng of Jiyue, so he was a little embarrassed to be so suspicious, so this sounded very embarrassing.

But Ji Le didn't think so, instead she thought very seriously:
"I've never heard of any close connections. However, Brother Meng has been busy all these years. He is familiar with powerful officials from other countries. It should be considered normal, right?"

This is not bad, after all, it is absolutely impossible to do business these days without dealing with high-level officials from various countries.

But Li Ran muttered to himself:
"If it's really just like this, then it's okay..."

"But... I'm afraid he is more than just making friends with them."
