I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Li Ran was delighted to hear that Zhao Yang was so confident, but also worried.

"But I don't know how sure the Marquis of Jin is able to overcome all opinions and facilitate this matter?"

Zhao Yang was about to answer the question when the door of the inner room of the house they were in was suddenly pushed open with a creaking sound.

Li Ran couldn't help looking into the room, but saw Dong Anyu came out directly, and said quite firmly:
"Hehe, there is nothing wrong with it. It's just that now that a widowed monarch is newly established, how dare the Fan family make too much trouble? My country of Jin has always been the lord of the world, and it is only natural to uphold justice for other countries. Regarding this point, what's the matter?" Could it be that Fan Yang can stand up to it? All you need is for the widow to finalize the matter of Marquis Lu at the court, and before Fan Yang reacts, it will be done by then, Marquis Lu will return directly to the country, and everything will fall into dust deal!"

While listening, Li Ran took a closer look.But Dong Anyu's clothes were actually covered with white ash.

It turned out that there is actually an inner road in this house, which leads directly to Zhao's residence.And Dong Anyu came here through this passage again.

Dong Anyu shook off the plaster on his body, and then stepped forward to bow to Li Ran again.

"It turned out to be Mr. Yan Yu."

(Yu Yu: Dong Anyu, word Yan Yu)
While Li Ran returned the gift, he still replied worriedly:

"It's just that Fan Yang is also very scheming, so is it true that he won't be on guard against this?"

After Jinhou Wu listened, he also solemnly said:
"Well, this matter has been known to the world. When the first king was around, he often discussed this matter. Although Ji Sun Yiru had no intentions at that time, he did not return to the country as Marquis of Lu these days. It is really wrong. Our country is Jin As the uncle of the world, he should help the righteous way, and now I am planning to start this matter..."

To say that this matter would take such a turnaround, Kong Qiu never expected it.

Although Jin Houwu had never met Li Ran before, he had already heard of his name. When he saw him coming, he smiled and said:

Afterwards, Zilu escorted Li Ran back to the post house. When Kong Qiu saw them coming back, he hurriedly welcomed them into the house and asked:
"How's it going?"

Marquis Wu of Jin was also well prepared, and deliberately made a puzzled expression:

"Your Majesty! Today Li Ziming, the Taishi of Luoyi, also came to our Jin Kingdom on a special trip to deal with Lu Hou, and he is standing in the court at this moment..."

When parting, Zhao Yang bowed deeply to Li Ran again:
"Mr. Ziming, after Marquis Lu returned to the country, did you really not consider helping Yang?"

"Before, it was only because there were princes in Wang Ji that the dynasty was in chaos, so these days were delayed. Now that the emperor has succeeded to the throne, it is time to put this matter on the agenda!"

Li Ran explained the situation to Kong Qiu in detail, and Kong Qiu couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words.

Kong Qiu also had a look of joy on his face. In fact, he had been working on Luhou's affairs all these years, and at this moment he finally saw a glimmer of light.

Actually it's not difficult
After all, everyone knows that the current Marquis of Lu is desperate, and the only way to come to lobby Jin is to have a glimmer of hope.

Fan Yang was present in the hall, and seeing Li Ran coming again, his eyes narrowed involuntarily.

When the Marquis of Jin saw Zhao Yang at noon, he tacitly said in his slightly immature voice:
"Oh? What's the matter? Zhao Qing, please speak clearly."

"I've heard Mr. Ziming's name for a long time, and when I saw him today, he really has an extraordinary bearing. Please hurry up!"

No wonder Zhao Wenzi cared so much about this person back then.

Everyone performed the ceremonies of a monarch and his ministers. After some cumbersome etiquette, they saw Fan Yang was about to go out, but Zhao Yang rushed ahead of Fan Yang and came out and said:
"My lord, I have something to report!"

"Just because Ji Sun Yiru was not at fault..."

When he learned that Li Ran had gone to Yunyi and brought his private soldiers with him, he already guessed that Li Ran's next move would be to visit Jin.

The hall is spacious, and Li Ran is standing at the end, so Jin Houwu didn't see it, so he asked this question.

In the early morning of the next day, a carriage stopped directly at the gate of the post house, and it turned out that it was sent by Zhao Yang.

"It's already been decided. Zhao Shangjun will take me into the palace to meet the Marquis of Jin tomorrow. According to what they said, the Marquis of Jin has actually wanted to intervene in this matter for a long time. It's just that there was no suitable opportunity before. And tomorrow, treat me as a Speaking of this matter in front of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, the Marquis of Jin will issue an edict on the spot!"

Zhao Yang sighed again in disappointment, and after Li Ran had put on his clothes and hat, the two of them bid farewell.Zhao Yang and Dong An left through the secret passage again, while Li Ran came out of the house and saw Zilu waiting not far away.

As for, how did Dong Anyu guess that Li Ran would come to Jin for help?

Li Ran stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, the King of the Lu Kingdom is in exile in Yunyi, and it is indeed a misfortune for the world to have such unreasonable things happen. Today, I only hope that the Lord can help Lu Hou return to the Lu Kingdom, so as to bring the world back to justice!"

Guided by Gong Zheng again, Li Ran finally came to the side hall.

Jin Houwu nodded slowly.

Therefore, Li Ran didn't say much anymore, and readily agreed.

It turned out that since Zhao Yang and Dong Anyu had failed to meet Li Ran last time, and since they returned to the state of Jin, Dong Anyu has been looking for opportunities.Therefore, he paid special attention to Li Ran's movements.

That being the case, will Li Ran not come?
obviously not
Hearing this, Li Ran couldn't help feeling that although Dong Anyu was young, he was also a good hand who knew how to assess the situation.Moreover, his vision is far-sighted, and he is indeed quite strategic.

"Well, after entering the palace tomorrow, I will play by ear and try my best to facilitate this matter!"

"Your Majesty! This matter is very inappropriate, and Yang thinks it's better not to act rashly!"

Most of the unnamed envoys sent by Luhou were directly intercepted and sent back by Fan Yang's men.

In the public debate between him and Li Ran yesterday, although he had taken the initiative, but seeing Li Ran again now, and it was still led by Zhao Yang, he felt somewhat guilty in his heart.

"What Zhao Qing said is true, but I don't know how to proceed with this matter?"

"Oh? Where?"

"Oh? Why did Fan Zhongjun say that? I wonder what's so difficult about this matter?"

Li Ran returned the courtesy and said:
"I've made up my mind, I'm sorry it's really hard for me to obey!"

Not long after, the Marquis of Jin went to court in the morning.I saw that Marquis Wu of Jin was dressed in plain clothes, and he and all the ministers had a salute first, and then all the ministers returned the salute, so they sat down separately.

"If this is the case, there is hope for Marquis Lu to return home!"

And the young Marquis Wu of Jin already had the ambition to revive the office, so they hit it off right away, and naturally wrote down this matter.

Under Dong Anyu's instruction, Zhao Yang also mentioned this matter to Jin Hou Wu many times, and said that if this matter is accomplished, it will be enough to establish a royal prestige for the prince, and it will also let Fan Yang and other nobles In the future, I dare not despise myself too much.

"It's just because Marquis Lu is now away and trapped in Yunyi. Lu State is a state with the same surname as Jin State, so how can we turn a deaf ear to this matter? What's more, Jin State is the uncle's lord. Kingdom, if we ignore this matter, wouldn’t it make the people of the world ridicule that our Jin Kingdom no longer has the true uncle of the past?”

Li Ran understood on the spot, and he got into the carriage alone, and when he got outside the palace gate, he saw that Zhao Yang had been waiting for him for a long time.

Hearing this, Li Ran went out, put his hands on his front, stepped forward with his head in his arms, came to Zhao Yang's side, knelt down and said loudly:
"Chen Luoyi Taishi Li Ran pays homage to the Marquis of Jin!"

Therefore, Dong Anyu began to plan to persuade Jin Houwu, who was still the prince at that time.

Obviously, Li Ran's current title of Luoyi Taishi is the only one Lu Hou can count on.

"promise!"

At this time, Fan Yang couldn't wait to come out and said:

……

It's just because the former monarch has not been buried yet, just like the prince's family back then. Although the prince can be regarded as the new monarch, he still doesn't show himself in the clothes of the monarch.

I only heard Dong Anyu say again:
"Hehe, to be honest, An Yu had planned this matter long before Mr. Ziming came to the Jin Kingdom. The Patriarch has actually been waiting for Mr. Ziming to come to our Jin Kingdom to lobby. It has been delayed until now. After all, if the head of the family directly talks to the widowed monarch about this matter, and Fan Yang is there to obstruct it, this matter will definitely fail. But now with Mr. Ziming, it will be very different."

Fan Yang's sophistry again, nothing more than saying "Ji's family is innocent, Lu Hou Chou is at fault first" and the like.

Marquis Jin couldn't help shaking his head when he heard the words.

"The Chinese army's words are wrong! In the past, Guan Zhong, the virtuous prime minister of the state of Qi, once said, 'Being a king or not a king, being a minister or not a minister, is the root of chaos. ? The widow thinks that this matter must be done!"

Obviously, what Jin Houwu said was about the affairs of the State of Lu.But how can the phrase "Being a king but not a king, and a minister not a minister" refer to this one thing only?

This sentence, uttered from Jin Houwu's mouth at this time, is quite intended to point fingers at Sang Sang and scold Huai Huai.
