I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 277 It Can't Be A Coincidence

If Qing Feng had thought more about it at the time, perhaps he would not have ended up leaving for Lu.

He has been in power for many years, and the military and political power of Qi is in his hands.So as long as he wants to stabilize the situation through normal means, no matter how much Lu Pukui and Wang He make trouble, the government and the opposition will not agree.

After all, neither the Marquis of Qi nor the courtiers wanted to be liquidated by Qingfeng in the future because of Lu Pukui and Wang He.

Therefore, as long as Qing Feng can wait for a while, not so anxious to rebel, and even put the label of "committing chaos" on the opponent's head, then the final outcome will definitely be different.

However, the fact is that such a twists and turns.

Not only was Qing Feng eager to rebel, but he hadn't fought yet.

Before he could even use all the power at his disposal, he was defeated.

Isn't this questionable?
"If you rebel, it is equivalent to driving yourself to a dead end."

Li Ran summed up his wrong behavior in one sentence.

After Qing Feng heard this, he immediately showed surprise, looked at Li Ran and said:
"You mean, Lu Pumao reminded me to rebel, but they did it on purpose?"

Who knows Li Ran said:
"To be precise, the reason why you chose to make trouble is because someone arranged for Lu Pumao to induce you to do so."

"Because, only if you rebel and completely cut yourself off from the court of Qi State, the power in your hands will become invalid. Then the people hiding behind you will have a chance to defeat you in one fell swoop."

"But if you have not rebelled, then although Lu Pukui and Wang He killed the son, their behavior is already a naked rebellion. There should be many ways you can respond, after all, you are Qi Xiang! "

Therefore, forcing Qing Feng to stand on the opposite side of Qi Guochaotang is the key to this plan.

It's a pity that Qing Feng didn't see this clearly at the time.

"Lu Pumao...why did he do this?"

"He was on the same boat as the old man at that time, wouldn't it be tantamount to putting himself to death if he did this?"

Qing Feng still couldn't figure it out.

Regarding this question, Li Ran actually had no clue at the moment, after all, there was something wrong with the Lu family from the beginning to the end.

But one thing is certain.At this time, Li Ran continued to speak:
"Judging from their final fate of being exiled to the Yan Kingdom, they didn't know why the people behind the scenes wanted them to do this. Therefore, whether it is Lu Pukui or Lu Pumao, they should have been used by others."

"And the real purpose of these people is to drive you out of Qi."

"As for the so-called surprise soldiers, have you ever thought about it, Qihou was very quiet during this whole thing, as quiet as if he had never appeared at all, don't you think this is also very strange? "

Indeed, the Marquis of Qi and the courtiers of the Qi State were very quiet during the Qingfeng Rebellion, which is indeed very strange.

Especially Qi Hou, as the king of a country, Qing Feng is his Qi Xiang.Qi Xiang rebelled, but the monarch did not move, is this justified?

"You mean, that surprise soldier was probably arranged by Marquis Qi?"

Qing Feng asked tentatively.

Li Ran shook his head, but did not give a clear answer, only said:
"Even if it's not Marquis Qi, it must have been secretly acquiesced by Marquis Qi, and it is destined to be inseparable from him."

"So, the conspiracy to expel you from the Qi State was a conspiracy from the very beginning, and it was not just the personal actions of Lu Pukui and Wang He."

"And those who are able to organize such a large plan and participate in it will expel all the key figures without exception. Apart from the dark walkers, who else do you think has this ability?"

The topic finally returned to the "Dark Walking Crowd".

From the beginning to the end of the Qingfeng Rebellion, everyone who participated in it either died or was expelled, and the whole country of Qi was so quiet that it didn't look like a court at all, but more like a spectator.

And who can make the entire court of Qi Kingdom act as spectators, except for the dark walkers, who else can it be?

The only possibility behind this incident is that the dark walkers are manipulating it!
"But why would they do that?"

Hearing Li Ran's guess, Qing Feng couldn't figure it out even more.

After all, at that time he was still one of the principals of the Dark Walkers.Even if it needs to be replaced, there is no need to use such a method, right?
The method adopted by the dark walkers is more like wanting to change the power of Qi State, not just to expel him.

"Then why did you choose to flee to the country of Lu next?"

Li Ran didn't answer him, but asked rhetorically.

Qing Feng was stunned when he heard the sound, and it took him a while to react:
"Aside from the Lu country, did the old man have any other options at that time?"

Yes, besides Lu Guo, he really had no other choice at that time.

It is impossible for him to go to Yan Country, there is no possibility for him to recover in that place.

And the state of Jin has always been at odds with the state of Qi. He ran to the state of Jin as a rebellious official of the state of Qi. Hospitality from the state of Jin.

Therefore, the only place he could go to was the Lu country, and Ji Sunsu, who was in the Lu country at that time, was one of the secret agents he knew.

So he has no other choice at all.

"Then why did you go to Wu country in the end?"

Li Ran continued to ask.

Qing Feng heard the sound and recalled again:

"It was really just a coincidence that he went to Wu. At that time, Ji Sunsu was fighting openly and secretly with Duke Lu Xiang. Since Lu Xianggong returned to Lu State from Chu, he insisted on building the Chu Palace, and Ji Sunsu was quite disgusted by this. There were also many disputes in the hall. After Duke Xiang of Lu was completely enraged, he disregarded Ji Sunsu's objection and forcibly issued an order to build the palace."

"As for us in the dark, we have always regarded Chu as a great enemy. Whether it is because of his dominance or the threat it poses to our Central Plains. After all, a strong and unified Chu State is very important to us. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a scourge for officials who rely on the separation of powers."

"Ji Sunsu felt the danger because of this, and at this time, the state of Wu just happened to send an envoy to visit the state of Lu, so I followed the envoy of the state of Wu to the state of Wu to negotiate, hoping to use Wu to control Chu."

In fact, even Qing Feng himself could feel that someone was behind the scenes, but he didn't know who this person was.

Therefore, he can only call this incident a coincidence for the time being.

Because everything happened so suddenly, especially the envoy from Wu Kingdom, who seemed to appear out of thin air, without any warning signs at all.

And Ji Sunsu's arrangement was also very abrupt, he directly asked Qing Feng to go to Wu with Wu's envoy.He didn't say a word at that time.

"In other words, if someone arranged this matter, then whether it is Ji Sunsu or Wu Guo, they are actually under their control, right?"
