I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 86 Don't take the blame, take care of yourself
What Tian Rangju didn't expect was that the young man in front of him, who was only a weak crown, was so courageous. He was not only neither humble nor overbearing in the face of his own prestige, but even wandered around in the courtyard, as if he hadn't heard it.

Although there are many strange people in the world, he has also seen quite a few of them, but this is only one case like him.

Although he didn't know why Li Ran was looking for an opportunity to talk to him alone, he could feel that Li Ran's move must have some intentions.

So, he only paused for a moment, and immediately agreed with a slight nod.He turned around and came to an inner room.

Li Ran was also going to follow him in, and before leaving, he didn't forget to turn his head to look at Zichan, offering sacrifices to the two of them.He nodded to them to reassure them.

When all the envoys outside the house saw this, they all talked about it, and they didn't know what Li Ran was trying to trick.

"There is no one around, can we talk now?"

Tian Rangju stood in the room, with a seven-foot body and an extremely burly body, with a pair of copper bell-like eagle eyes that were extremely sharp.

However, Li Ran remained unmoved.

After he glanced at Tian Rangju, he lowered his head, sat down very slowly, and said slowly:

"Did the doctor ever suspect that this matter may be done by you Qi people?"

Regarding the robbery of the Qi State grain truck, in fact, everyone will have a basic understanding in their minds, that is, it is absolutely impossible for the people of Qi to do it themselves.

The reason is also very simple, why did the people of Qi want to rob their grain carts?Could it be that those ordinary people who can't eat gather together to rob food?Even so, where did the weapons in their hands come from?
What's more, Qi's guards responsible for transporting grain this time had at least one or two thousand elite soldiers.To be able to carry out looting under the eyes of such elites, not to mention just fallen savages, even if the surrounding barbarian nations have intentions, they may not be able to retreat unscathed.

In other words, there was almost no doubt that this matter must have been done by the officials of the other party.

So, the only question is, which side did this thing?And all the evidence now points to Yang Tongue who is far away in Jin State, and Li Ran who is in Zheng State.

However, Tian Rangju is Yan Ying's confidant.Sincerely following Yan Ying's instructions, he naturally has some thoughts about it.It's just not mature yet, and I don't have the slightest clue.Hearing Li Ran's words at this moment, his expression was slightly startled, and there was a little surprise in his eyes.

"Oh? You mean, I, Qiren, did this myself, and then turned the blame on you? This idea is very new, so I would like to hear more about it."

Obviously, Tian Rangju suddenly became interested in this rhetoric.Then Li Ran continued to explain.

"However, there are currently two conjectures. One is that the people of Qi did it unintentionally, and then they want to shift the attention of this matter to me, Li Ran. The other is that it is intentional, that there are bad people hiding in Qi The country, after getting the news from the Qi country that the grain was about to be transported, and then robbed the grain, it was intentional to use this to blame me. But no matter what the possibility is, there must be people from Qi as the internal response. This should not be the case Without a doubt."

"So even if the people of Qi didn't do it personally, there must be someone secretly cooperating with them. What do you think?"

In fact, there is one thing that Li Ran hasn't fully figured out yet, so he didn't tell Tian Rangju all his guesses until he figured it out.

But the two guesses he said right now are enough to make Tian Rangju think deeply.

Information such as the route of Qi State grain trucks, the date of escort, and the number of guards should be classified as confidential in Qi State.On the one hand, it was out of safety considerations, on the other hand, after all, this matter was facilitated by Jin.The state of Qi is too fanciful to run errands under the imperial edict, so it is inevitable that this face is a little bit embarrassing.

In fact, this is indeed the case. It is reasonable that only a very small number of people know the route of the Qi State grain truck escort and the pick-up date of each post station.

Even Zheng Guoji, who was well-informed before, had to send people to secretly inquire again and again in order to know their approximate itinerary and location.

If you want to rely only on these pieces of information to plan the food robbery, it will be more difficult than reaching the sky.

That being the case, if the accident happened to the Qi State grain truck on the road this time, if it was not the fault of Yang Tong Xi and Li Ran, then who could it be?
"Hehe, if you say so, can I suspect that this matter is that you deliberately leaked the news, and then found someone to pretend to blame you, so that in turn, you can clear your suspicion?"

"You are so smart, since you can think that I, Qi Ren, leaked the secret, you can naturally think of a way to get yourself out, can't you?"

After Tian Rangju's words fell, a disdainful smile suddenly appeared on his face.

The ability of a person who can be valued so highly by Yan Ying cannot be summed up in one or two sentences.

If he was really dismissed by Li Ran with one or two so-called "guesses", then Yan Ying's "knowledge of people" would not be surprising.And this Tian Yanju is naturally not fair.

What Li Ran said just now is indeed reasonable, but no matter how reasonable it is, after all Tian Rangju is also from Qi.

Since he is from Qi, it is impossible for him to believe an outsider's doubts about himself so easily.

And he knew very well that Li Ran hadn't completely told him the truth.

"Dare to ask the doctor, why did the doctor decide that Li Ran is going to write and direct this play himself?"

Seeing this, Li Ran frowned slightly.

"Hehe, it's because of those two outside."

Tian Rangju couldn't help but sneered, and pointed to the location of the lobby with his finger.The look of disdain on his face suddenly became more serious.

His suspicion was actually not completely unreasonable.

After all, if Qi State's food cannot be transported to Wei State, then Zheng State can take the lead and become the only benefactor who successfully aids Wei State.

In the future, Zheng and Wei share the same hatred, and they are also a state with the surname of Ji, so the east of Zheng State will naturally be much more stable.

And the Ji clan can naturally enjoy the dividends of the good-neighborliness and friendship between the two countries, and seek greater benefits from it.

"Hehe, the doctor will be disappointed."

"Oh? How do you say this?"

Tian Rangju asked noncommittal again.

Li Ran gave birth outside the house as if nothing had happened, Ji took a look at it first, and then replied slowly:
"If Li had really thought about the two outsiders, he would not have told Uncle Xiang how to lobby the monarch of your country from the very beginning. If the Qi State had not transported food to the Wei State, not only would it be of no kindness to the Wei State, but on the contrary It will also offend the state of Jin, but for Zheng, wouldn't it be more beneficial?

"The Ji clan can also take this opportunity to sell grain to Weiguo. Not only can they make a lot of money, but Weiguo will only be grateful to the Zheng Guoji. The Jishi can get a name and benefit, and No worries of any kind.”

"The doctor thinks, why does Li want to look far away? Why do you want to risk such dissatisfaction in the world?"

That's right, instead of robbing Qi State's grain carts with great fanfare, if Li Ran wanted to help Zheng Guohe Jishi to make a profit, wouldn't it be better to just persuade Yang Tongxue to give up this idea as soon as possible?

Hearing this, Tian Rangju's face became serious again.

"Can Ziming tell the truth?"

He suspected so much, in fact, he just wanted to see what Li Ran was covering up.

But it is a pity that so far, he still failed to thoroughly understand Li Ran.

Even though Li Ran was standing in front of him, he still saw through it, as if Li Ran was covered with a curtain, giving people a very mysterious feeling.

Hazy, looming.

Obviously, Tian Rangju didn't like this feeling, nor did he like Li Ran's cover-up.It's just that due to the purpose of this trip, he had to find out all the truth that Li Ran knew.

"Of course, you can give the doctor a name. When the doctor returns to the state of Qi, he can use this person as a clue to conduct an open and secret investigation in private. At that time, he will be able to find out some clues. However, no matter what the result is, I also implore the doctor. Let us know at a later date."

After saying this, Li Ran's eyes couldn't help becoming sharper.

Tian Rangju was startled when he saw this, and was about to ask for more details, but unexpectedly, Li Ran directly bowed his hand, and even retreated on his own, without any intention of telling him the name.

Then, he looked at the position where Li Ran was standing just now, and saw that there were two extra characters on the ground at some point.
