After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 76 The Mighty Uncle Wang

Guoyuan, who was almost killed by the mouth of the black eagle, could not help but scold Tian Qi and his son for causing harm to others when he learned that it was because of Tian Rangju's death that he suffered such a disaster.

"It is true that the Guo and Gao clans are afraid of the Tian family's growth and repeated suppression. However, Tian Rangju, who was removed from the position of Da Sima, is no longer a threat. Why should the Guo and Gao go to the trouble again? Tian Rangju was on guard but was still poisoned. Now It must be the work of an insider!"

Hearing this, Wang Bo, who had white beard and eyebrows, turned around abruptly, looking furious.

"The old servant was originally a giant bandit in the East China Sea, and was subdued by his master to follow him. As soon as the news of the master's sudden death reached Langya, the old servant sneaked back to Linzi in spite of the ban. After some investigation, he found out about the poisoning of the master. Now you only What are the intentions of speculating and slandering people wantonly?"

Meng Di and Su'er looked at each other, and the latter persuasively persuaded: "Uncle Wang, what the young master said coincides with your husband. Tian Chang has been looking for her husband many times, and bought her husband with two thousand acres of salt fields as bait. Take one shot."

Uncle Wang was thoughtful, "Master, do you know who Tian Chang is going to deal with?"

After knowing that Uncle Wang and Su'er have the friendship of master and servant, Meng Di began to recruit, and naturally he would not hide anything.

"Tian Chang said that he had an enemy who stole a batch of goods and wanted to use the power of the caravan to get them back."

Uncle Wang smiled coldly, "The Tian family is a big family in the Qi State, so they can't solve any enemies, and need the assistance of a small caravan."

Guo Yuan felt that Meng Di had saved his life, so he was naturally willing to help him along the way.

"The huge price of two thousand acres of salt fields is definitely beyond the reach of a mere son-in-law. This matter must involve a lot, so we can only find someone who has nothing to do with the power of Qi in Tian Chang's personal name."

Uncle Wang realized something when he heard the words, and glanced at Guoyuan meaningfully.

"From my uncle's words, Tian Chang's words are incomplete and untrue, and may involve the conflict of interests of several big families. I think my uncle's caravan is not simple, and the advances and retreats between actions are well-founded. If I guess correctly, it should be an army in disguise. of."

Hearing that Uncle Wang revealed Mengdi's identity in front of Guoyuan, Su'er, who didn't know it, couldn't help covering her mouth and exclaiming.

"Uncle Wang has seen my caravan?"

Meng Di was calm on the surface, but in his heart he screamed badly: even Uncle Wang, a giant bandit from the East China Sea, saw the flaw, how could Tian Qi not see it?

"Tian Chang told me that because Langya's Tian family's distant branch suddenly rebelled against the family, the previously agreed matter had to be abandoned, but the promised business route was still carried out. No meritorious deeds will be rewarded, and now it seems that there must be something strange in it."

Guoyuan focused his eyes, "Can he tell you where the trade route is going?"

In fact, the production of salt among the princes is not unique to Qi, but only the salt produced from seawater in Qi has a high output and good quality.Therefore, salt has become the main resource of Qi State, and it has always been a popular item in various countries.
Because the weather at sea is unpredictable and the risk is too great, in order to ensure the safety of transportation, in addition to the sea route, Qi State also opened up several commercial routes on land for salt transportation.

If Tian begs to give a gift with the trade route of salt transportation, it will be tantamount to mobilizing the interests of several major clans, and Guoyuan naturally cannot pretend to turn a deaf ear to it.

"Han wants to sell horses in the country of Yan. Now that the relationship between Qi and Yan is at odds, not to mention transporting horses, it is a problem to return safely. Tian often offered him a trade route to the country of Yan. Han really couldn't refuse. I just had to go."

The second half of Meng Di's words are for Uncle Wang, who is an old man in Tian Rangju's house, and Meng Di doesn't want him to have a rift with Su'er because of himself.

"After Jin's defeat, he sent people to assassinate many times, but the old servant resolved them one by one. Tian Qi is coveting his master's book of war, and wants to use it to flatter Gao Zhang as the foundation of his career."

After learning that Tian Qi also wanted to get rid of Uncle Wang to seize the "Sima Law", Guoyuan secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time felt jealous of Tian Qi and his son.

What Meng Di was thinking at this moment was something else: Tian often gave him the trade route to the country of Yan. If he used this route to transport horses, in case of an accident, it would be the country of Yan who would be the last one to blame. .

"Tian Qi wants to use Han's hand to eradicate Tian Rangju's servants, and then send people to pretend to be Yan State bandits to rob and kill us on the commercial road. This plan of killing two birds with one stone is really ingenious!"

If a caravan is wiped out on the trade route to Yan, it will not cause too much disturbance.However, Uncle Wang had previously stated that the caravan led by Mengdi was disguised by the army, so things became more complicated.

"Just now I heard from Wang Boyan that the caravan led by General Ming Meng is a disguised army. I wonder which country's army you are leading?"

Before Meng Di could speak, Su'er responded first, "My husband is a doctor of the Lu State, and he is leading the army of the Lu State!"

Guoyuan heard that the moat of Qufu, the capital of the State of Lu, was formed by diverting Zhushui. The majestic city walls made of rammed earth and bricks are patrolled by armed men from time to time. It is a prosperous place in the Central Plains.

Because of the stupidity of Tian Qi and his son, they almost provoked a potential enemy for Qi. Once Lu used this as an excuse to form an alliance with Yan, Guo Yuan broke into a cold sweat thinking of the possible serious consequences.

"I heard that Gongshan Buxuan defeated Feiyi, and the strange situation in which the three Huan ruled Lu and the accompanying ministers specialized in Sanhuan collapsed. I wonder if there is such a thing?"

Yanghu and Gongshan Buxuan join forces to expel Jisunsi's confidant Zhong Lianghuai, and put the young master Jisunsi under house arrest to win the family power.According to the prior agreement, Yang Hu controls the government, and Gongshan does not manage Feiyi.

Now Guoyuan in Qi State already knew about Gongshan Buxuan's defeat of Feiyi, and even tried to test Mengdi, which made him have to be careful.

"Three Huans were originally all prosperous and all lost. Even if a retainer like Yang Hu was quick, it would be difficult to overthrow the situation of Sanhuan and Lu in a hurry. The defeat of Feiyi by Gongshan Buxuan is the best proof .”

Thinking of the dangerous situation he and Su'er faced in Qi State, Meng Di simply raised the tiger skin as a banner, so that the big clans of Qi State would not dare to despise him as a doctor of Lu State.

"General Meng took the official position as a doctor at a young age. I don't know which family of Sanhuan he is worshiping?"

We all know that the current state of Lu is either Sanhuan's or Yanghu's retainers, but it will not be Luhou's.

If Mengdi regards Luhou as the most respected, Guoyuan will not offend Tian Qi and his son for him even if he is blessed by an old man like Wang Bo.

"Yanghu and Gongshan did not fight each other just to help my husband capture Feiyi. So it should be self-evident which family my husband worships under Sanhuan?"

Faced with Su'er's rhetorical question, Guoyuan was shocked, he didn't expect Mengdi's status in Lu State to be comparable to that of Yang Hu.

Now that Mengdi is still being assisted by Tian Rangju's descendants, it seems that no matter whether it is his father or Tian Qi's father and son, it is hopeless to win the "Sima Law".
