I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 349 Chapter 409 Chapter 410
Li Ran seemed to have made up his mind, and waved his hand directly to make Sun Wu retreat.

Sun Wu knew that it was not good to behave too disobediently in front of his husband, so he could only sigh secretly, and retreated.

In the next few days, Li Ran didn't see anyone, and only cared for Ji Le and his daughter, enjoying this rare and comfortable life.

Seeing such a situation, Owl Yi had no choice but to say to Sun Wu:

"Although the lord is like this, we can't be depressed together. I still have to go to Zhengyi to find out the news so that I can learn more about the situation so that the lord can make a decision in the future!"

Sun Wu sighed:

"Hey... that's all for now."

"The news from Zheng Yi's side, Owl Yi will report back in detail. If the lord regains his strength, Changqing can take advantage of his interests and report to the lord!"

"Okay! Wu wrote it down."

Sun Wu and Xiaoyi walked in front, and the groom followed behind in his carriage. Before he reached the gate of the city, he found many ordinary people appearing in groups on the street.

Sun Wu and Xiaoyi looked at each other, but they didn't understand what happened.When they arrived at the gate of the city, they saw that there were many others outside, and judging by their attire, it seemed that they were from Zheng Yi's side.

Sun Wu summoned the city gate guard, and when the guard saw that it was Sun Wu, he trotted over immediately, clasped his fists and asked:
"What instructions does Ye Gong have?"

Sun Wu is still the county magistrate of Ye Yi, so he is called the city lord general.

"What's wrong with these people?"

Sun Wu pointed to the ordinary people inside and outside the city, and the city guard replied:
"Go back to Lord Ye, these people are refugees who escaped from Zhengyi!"

Sun Wu was a little doubtful, but Xiaoyi suddenly realized:

"It must be that Zichan's new policy was overthrown, and these common people turned back into private slaves in a blink of an eye! After all, these people had already enjoyed the benefits of Zichan before, so how could they be willing to become the nobles' domestic slaves again?" What? Presumably, they heard the news that the lord is staying here, so they came to Ye Yi to seek refuge!"

"In this way, it can be regarded as good news!"

Sun Wu was very happy, after saying goodbye to Owl Wing, he asked some common people of Zheng Guo along the way.

Sure enough, they came here to seek refuge after hearing that Li Ran had come to Ye Yi, and they also hoped that Ye Yi could take them in.

After Sun Wu confirmed, he rushed back immediately and told Li Ran the news with great interest.

However, after Li Ran heard the news, he still turned a deaf ear to it and just coaxed the daughter in his arms blindly.

Seeing such a situation, Sun Wu was also a little stunned, knowing that he could not count on Li Ran at all right now.But these refugees can't be ignored, they must be properly settled.

Therefore, Sun Wu found Ye Xu, who was a Wu man who was discovered by Sun Wu in the Battle of Chaoyi and survived.

At that time, this Ye Xu was only about ten years old, and he dared not do it because he was afraid of committing suicide. It happened that this scene was discovered by Sun Wu.

And Sun Tzu feels somewhat guilty about this war.But when he saw Ye Xu, he suddenly felt compassion, so he took it with him to keep it.

Later, Sun Wu conferred the title of Ye Gong, and Ye Xu arranged for Ye Yi at this time, and named it "Ye Xu" with the land as his family.

And Ye Xu has grown rapidly in these years in Ye Yi, and during the time when Sun Wu was not in Ye Yi, Ye Xu relied on his own ability to forcibly survive the chaotic situation of Chu State, and guard Ye Yi. One side's peace down.

From this, Sun Wu also felt that this son was indeed a man to be made, so he directly promoted him to be the governor of Ye Yi, and he had full power to handle Ye Yi's political affairs during his absence.

And Ye Xu lived up to his trust and managed Ye Yi in an orderly manner.This also made Sun Wu very satisfied.

After Ye Xu heard Sun Wu's words, he couldn't help muttering:
"Ye Gong, I have three strategies, the top, the middle and the bottom, and I ask Ye Gong to decide!"

Sun Wu nodded.

"Well, let's talk about it!"

"First, although Ye Yi is not a big place, it is also an important town for communication between the north and the south! Since the lord is quite prestigious among these refugees, it should be all included! Allocate them with acres of land and let them settle in Ye Yi Anzai."

"Ye Yi can also be expanded. From then on, Ye Yi will rely on the Chu State and look north to the Central Plains. He will become a vassal and can dominate one side! This is the best policy!"

Thinking of Li Ran's state, Sun Wu couldn't help but wryly smiled in his heart, and asked calmly:

"So what about the middle policy and the bad policy?"

"The middle strategy is to entangle these refugees, together with Ye Yi's soldiers, taking advantage of Zheng's internal turmoil, in the name of the Qing emperor's side, to take Zheng Yi by himself, so that the wealth can be eliminated, and the sacrifice of the family can be avenged! It's just that The danger is not small, but also a little hasty!"

"The worst strategy is to persuade these refugees to return, wait for orders, face Zheng and make peace with Chu, but this can only win temporary peace! It won't last long, and it will also lose people's hearts. This is really the worst strategy."

Sun Tzu thought carefully, and said:

"It's difficult to choose between the best policy and the middle policy for a while, but this bad policy is really not worth considering!"

Ye Xu only knew that his wife was in a coma, but he didn't know that Li Ran was depressed, so he said:
"Then let the lord decide!"

When Sun Wu was feeling embarrassed, someone outside the door reported:
"Gong Ye, Mr. Yizai, Madam is awake!"

When Sun Wu and Ye Xu heard this, they stood up together, and Sun Wu even smiled, thinking:
"Since Ma'am has woken up, Mister will regroup, as usual!"

So, the two rushed to Ji Le's room immediately, only to see Li Ran hugging Ji Le together.

However, Ji Le still had his hands down, and although his eyes were as bright as before, they were dull and not as bright as before.

It turned out that although Ji Le woke up, her body was still very weak.And, worst of all, Ji Le actually lost his memory!
Facing Li Ran, Ji Le only felt kind, but she couldn't remember who he was!Therefore, although he didn't feel conflicted about his hug, he didn't respond.

And she didn't even have any impression of Sun Wu, she looked at Sun Wu and Ye Xu quite curiously.

"Who are you?"

Ye Xu was not familiar with Jiyue at first, but Sun Wu was different. He had been following Li Ran all along, so he should be very familiar with Jiyue.

Sun Wu was a little dazed, and stepped forward to salute:
"Ma'am, this is Sun Wu! Sun Changqing!"

Obviously, the festival music has no effect on this, Li Ran said in a low voice:

"Le'er, it's okay, you'll remember it slowly."

Ji Le frowned, and then looked around:
"Where's the child? Where's my child?"

Although Ji Le has amnesia, she still misses her newborn child.Li Ran hurriedly asked his servants to bring her daughter, and when Li Ran took it over, she showed Ji Le a closer look.

Seeing her daughter, Ji Le hurriedly wanted to hug her, but her hands were weak, so she had to move her cheek close to her daughter's face, and a smile appeared on her face.

Li Ran saw Jiyue like this, felt relieved, and tentatively asked about the Ji clan.As for the massacre, she seemed to have no memory at all.

Even his father and elder brother have no impression at all.

Li Ran secretly said:

"It's a good thing that she can forget the past. If she can remember everything clearly, she will inevitably be heartbroken again..."

Ji Le now has two dimples full of sorrow, tears in his eyes, every move is like a weak willow supporting the wind, which makes people feel pitiful.

Chapter 410_ What is a real man

Li Ran is very distressed about the current situation of Ji Le, and feels even more guilty.So he has been by Ji Le's side and never leaves.

Although Ji Le doesn't remember what happened in the past, fortunately she still remembers that she has such a daughter.

Remembering her daughter, she naturally knew that she should have a husband, and the moment she saw Li Ran, she couldn't help feeling an inexplicable intimacy, so she didn't reject it.

Li Ran didn't care about those troublesome things.And because of his amnesia, Ji Le would not urge him to do anything.Li Ran was by Ji Le's side, and when she got better, she would often drive a carriage and go out to the countryside to relax.

Under Li Ran's careful care, Ji Le's condition is also getting better day by day, but because of the excessive blood loss before, her face still looks a little thin and pale.

But Li Ran's relaxed and happy appearance made Sun Wu anxious.

It turned out that Xiaoyi had received another message from Zheng Yi, saying that the crisis in Zheng State had become more and more serious, and that Mr. Zheng Guoxin had been provoked by Feng Duan, and Dr. Zichan had been banned by his order.

As for the Ji Clan, because of the fire, almost all the ancestors were extinct, and their power was not as good as before, and they were completely controlled by Shu Niu.

As those clan elders who were not used to Shu Niu also passed away one after another, Shu Niu can be said to cover the sky with one hand in the Ji Clan.

At the same time, Shu Niu also helped Feng Duan use the Ziqian capital of the sacrifice family to forcibly apportion the high-profit Ziqian, and plunder Zheng Guo's private assets in a disguised form.For a while, the commerce that Zheng Guo was once proud of was also severely damaged.

Feng Duan, on the other hand, is like performing a double reed with Shu Niu, using this almost terrifying method to control the ruling and opposition parties.

Not only directly banned the previous non-governmental sub-money lending, but even openly drove away merchants and suppressed all commercial activities in Zheng's country.And the cauldron of "people's livelihood is declining" is directly buckled on the businessmen.

Among them, Shu Niu not only colluded with him, but also filled his own pockets.And still acted as a vanguard, rushing to the forefront.

As a result, Dr. Zichan's reform policy was almost completely rejected, and Zheng Guo was a desolate man.

Sun Wu knew that the situation was urgent, and he didn't care about the difference between master and servant. He directly grabbed Li Ran's hand and said anxiously:

"Sir! The current chaos in Zheng Guo can only be resolved by the gentleman! How can the gentleman watch the fire from the other side like this? Do you have to wait until the fire burns around you before you know how to worry?"

Li Ran still looked very indifferent.

"The affairs of the world should be in the hands of the Son of Heaven and the feudal lords. I, Li Ran, are only a young man, so what should I do? Li Ran's intention to retire has been decided, so there is no need for Changqing to say anything."

"Sir! How can a man be able to grow old under Linquan when he possesses extraordinary talents in the world? Sir, he was once a person with the world in his heart, how can he be so depressed today? Have you really forgotten the oath you made back then? "

Li Ran also trembled slightly, but recovered quickly.

"Changqing, the so-called ambition is either a dream in the mirror or a flash in the pan, why should we be persistent? Brother, I just want to cherish the people in front of me now, and I don't want to take care of other things anymore! Changqing, your talent is ten times better than that of a foolish brother. The material of the world. If you have the heart, you can just do it according to your own ideas!"

When Sun Wu heard this, he withdrew his hands and backed away, but changed his tone and said loudly:
"My lord! If Wu You does something wrong, and then he will be burned, Ye Yi may not have a place to stand for the lord!"

Li Ran heard the words, but still didn't care, just smiled slightly:
"Hehe, it is said that the land of Shu is a blessed land, a paradise of idyllic beauty, but I will leave tomorrow, so I won't bother Changqing anymore!"

When Sun Wu heard the words, he stomped his feet anxiously, but there was nothing he could do.Li Ran didn't care, and walked into the house with only Ji Le's hand.

Ji Le didn't have her own judgment on why Sun Wu was in a hurry. She didn't remember Sun Wu now, nor did she know what Sun Wu meant, so she didn't say a word from the beginning to the end.

After walking away from Li Ran, he opened his mouth and said:

"This man speaks so eagerly, why does my husband insist on not allowing it?"

"Ma'am, tomorrow we will leave here and go back to the land of Shu. Don't think about anything else. Let's just live our own lives with our children and stop thinking about those troublesome things, okay?"

During this period of time, because Li Ran has been by Ji Le's side, Ji Le also has a little dependence on Li Ran. Hearing what Li Ran said at this time, he nodded naturally:
"Okay! Everything is according to my husband."

Therefore, Li Ran ordered people to start packing their luggage, and in the early morning of the next day, he and Ji Le took their children and prepared to leave.

However, the news of Li Ran's departure had already spread like wildfire, especially those refugees who came all the way from Zhengyi, they all spontaneously knelt on both sides of the road, begging Li Ran not to leave Yeyi.

Yes, Zheng Guo can no longer go back.They can only place their hopes on the savior who once brought them "freedom" and "dignity".

They really don't want to go back and serve as cows and horses for those nobles.They really don't want to go on living in such a life without storage of rocks and hunger and cold.

Therefore, they also knew very well that as soon as Li Ran left Ye Yi, the miserable days like before would befall them again sooner or later.

Li Ran saw the carriage stopped, and there was a lot of noise outside, so he had no choice but to step out of the carriage.And when he saw the scene in front of him, his eyes were a little moist.

He was also a little shaken at first, but when he looked back through the car curtain, he saw the figure of the Jiyue monster holding the child, and the breeze blew by, revealing her expression that seemed to be frowning, her eyes that seemed to be crying but not crying, and she suddenly appeared again. I feel that even if I have failed the people of the world, I can no longer bear the festival music!
So, Li Ran bowed his hands to everyone, and said loudly:

"Everyone, everyone, please listen to what Li Ran has to say!"

Li Ran opened his mouth to speak, and the scene immediately fell silent.

"I, Li Ran, have been wrongly loved by all of you, but these years, I have traveled all over the world, restless, and toiled endlessly. That's all, but it is true that I have neglected my wife. Since Li got married, my wife has been indifferent every day. Worried, there is no day without worry, and there is no day of peace."

"Nowadays, many of my wives are killed, so Li can no longer stay here. I just want to spend the rest of my life with my wives, and we will be in love with each other from now on. I also hope that all the fathers and villagers will be happy!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone whispered and whispered, not knowing what to do.

Sun Wu came to Li Ran's side and said in grief and indignation:
"Is my lord determined to leave?"

Li Ran glanced at the car curtain again.

"Well, Changqing, Ye Yi and these common people will be entrusted to you!"

Li Ran acted like he had made up his mind and had nothing else to think about, causing Sun Wu's brain to turn sharply, thinking about how to keep him here. At this moment, only one person in the crowd burst out laughing. .

"Hahaha! A man stands between heaven and earth, doing nothing but doing nothing different from grass and trees? Li Ran! You have really wasted your reputation! The world calls you 'Lord of Seasons', unexpectedly But it’s such a misnomer! It seems that they are just trying to gain fame and reputation, and they don’t know right from wrong!”

Li Ran and Sun Wu both followed the prestige, but found that it was Ye Xu who said this.

Seeing Ye Xu stepping out of the crowd with his head held high, it can be said that he didn't give Li Ran any face at all.

Li Ran took a deep breath and asked calmly:
"Li just wants to fade out of the world's disputes, so why is there 'no distinction between right and wrong'?"

"Hmph! See more than evil! Do ten times more evil!"

This extremely eloquent sentence can be said to hit Li Ran's heart directly.

That's right, this was what Sun Wu said back then. When Sun Wu said this to Li Ran, Li Ran was also deeply sorry for Sun Wu's idea of ​​"taking the life and death of the people of other countries as his own responsibility, and not taking the power of the country as his own." I am moved by the mind that produces prejudice".

However, today is not what it used to be. Back then Li Ran was moved when he heard it, but today he only felt extremely ashamed and indignant, and could not help scolding:

"Hmph! It's just a short-sighted person! It's not worth mentioning!"

Who knew that Ye Xu had no intention of backing down at all!
"The so-called 'A woman's benevolence cannot be tolerated by love; the courage of a man cannot be tolerated by anger, both of them can make great plans!" With such a virtuous name, how can you not understand such a simple truth? Don't you know that in this world, everyone Righteousness should be the greatest! How can a small love and a small love make a big conspiracy?! The protagonist has the ability to save the world, but he does not do anything. If he walks away like this, he will sink into the pot all day long. Ignoring the life and death of the common people, isn't this the most evil thing?!"
