Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 86

Chapter 088

Ran Ming and Ran Jingwen were talking, but Ran Ming glanced at Mrs. Li from the corner of his eye.After these days of self-cultivation, Li Shi's face turned ruddy from a disheveled face, but under the illumination of the lights, her beauty did not diminish a little, and she added a bit of pitiful taste, which aroused Ran Ming's heart itching.

Li Shi seemed to notice that Ran Ming was looking at him, and felt even more uneasy.

People with low self-esteem are easy to be sensitive, the key is that in front of Ran Ming, Li Shi can't be confident at all.

Seeing Ran Ming's exhausted face, Mrs. Li stroked Ran Jingwen's head and said, "Jingwen, be good, let Daddy rest!"

Ran Jingwen said obediently: "Oh... Got it!"

Ran Ming stroked his belly and said, "Is there anything to eat? I'm hungry!"

While putting on her shoes, Ran Jingwen said, "Wait a minute, Dad, I'll go get the food, Weng Weng in the dining room will give me an extra piece of meat every time!"

Ran Ming, the prince, is nominally his palace because of his military service. Unfortunately, the maids and eunuchs equipped in the Changping Palace have already been dismissed by Ran Min in order to reduce expenses.

Now Ruoda’s Changping Palace actually only has three women, Ran Jingwen, Ran Juan, and Li Shi, and there is nothing like a kitchen.

Ran Ming wondered if he wanted to move the palace out of the palace.

Ran Ming was thinking about things in his heart, but he never thought that Mrs. Li was also preoccupied.Before he knew it, Ran Ming bumped into Mrs. Li.

Feeling Ran Ming's breath blowing towards her face, Li's heart was shaken, and she found that Ran Ming was looking at him fascinated, and her heart was a little confused.

At this moment, Ran Juan came in with a basin of washing water, looked at Ran Ming and Li Shi affectionately, couldn't help laughing and said: "Pfft... I was dumbfounded again!"

"Oh." Ran Ming just came back to his senses, and asked Li Shi pretending to be serious: "How are these days?"

"En." Li Shi only felt his face was slightly hot, and replied softly.

Ran Juan felt that it was a little redundant to be here at this time, so she put the water basin on the basin stand heavily, then turned and left.When she was about to reach the entrance, Ran Juan said: "You guys discuss things, I'll go to the gate of the moon to watch..."

At this moment, Ran Ming saw Li Shi wearing a Dairu embroidered skirt and a light yellow apron around her waist. Pingting looked over gracefully and sat down with her on the bed next to the desk.Mrs. Li told Ran Ming in detail what happened after Ran Ming left the mountain village.

Ran Ming asked unexpectedly: "Liu Shi and Lin Shi haven't come back since then?"

Mrs. Li nodded and said, "It's so chaotic outside, I don't know what accident happened to them!"

Ran Ming sighed and said: "No matter what, they are kind to me. I will arrange a part of the staff later to find them!"

Mrs. Li nodded, and asked again: "What are your plans?"

Ran Ming sighed and said, "I'm already 14 years old. According to the regulations, I shouldn't stay in the palace. Later, I will ask my father to allow me to open the mansion, and I will move out of the palace!"

Li Shi said lightly: "It's good to move out!"

Ran Ming heard the hidden meaning in Li Shi's words, it seems that they are not living well in the palace these days.

In fact, Ran Ming just didn't put himself in his shoes and think about it carefully. The imperial palace is a arena for power and status, and the maids and eunuchs inside are all good at observing words and deeds, and pushing high and low.

Ran Juan was just one of Ran Ming's bodyguards, and Ran Jingwen was just Ran Ming's adopted daughter, and when Li Shi just arrived in Yecheng, she had no appearance, no figure, and the key was that she was nine years older than Ran Ming. .

Therefore, Gong'e and the eunuchs are not optimistic about the future of Li Shi and Ran Ming, so naturally they are not fake.

……

"Daddy, save the child!" Jiang Ju knelt in front of Jiang Gan, howling with snot and tears.

Jiang Gan was also very angry. What happened to his son would make him feel bad as a father.Jiang Gan asked Shen Jing to be taken down for treatment.Just after Shen Jing left, Jiang Ju stopped crying, and there was an unnoticed gleam in his eyes!
Jiang Ju lowered his head and said, "His Royal Highness King Chu's subordinates are very powerful. We have employed more than 100 people, but there are more than [-] of them who don't even have a skinny guy."

Although Jiang Ju pretended to be relaxed, Ran Ming's kick was too hard. At this time, the indescribable thing was swollen like a carrot, and the pain penetrated into the bone marrow.

Jiang Gan glanced at his son. This son is his pride. Although he usually behaves in Yecheng and bullies men and women, he has always been very measured and has never killed anyone. Even the women he snatched from the street are good housed their families.

Just like Ran Ming's guess, Jiang Ju has been using this method to smear his father's name and dispel Ran Min's vigilance.

In fact, this is also the case. In this era of war and chaos, most people cannot survive.A piece of bread can be exchanged for a big girl with yellow flowers, Jiang Ju actually doesn't need to rob people's daughters by force.

You can't just look at the surface of anything.

Jiang Gan sighed and said: "Can it not be powerful? If it is not powerful, it can beat Murong Ke's 14 troops, but the entire army was wiped out. In addition to leaving more than 1 surrendered soldiers, more than 1 prisoners were also sent to Qingzhou by His Royal Highness Chu to do hard labor. , Tens of thousands of people, kill as soon as they say, they are more decisive and ruthless than His Majesty! Father, how will this matter end?"

Jiang Gandao: "Find a scapegoat and push the matter to Shen Jing. Although everyone knows it well, I won't hold you accountable for my sake. His Royal Highness, you must not provoke him in the future. He is very serious." Shrewd, if you let him see the flaw, all the hard work for your father will be in vain!"

Jiang Gan's tone was very blunt, but revealed a trace of domineering, this is the majesty of a superior.Jiang Ju thought for a while, and finally opened his mouth with difficulty: "Father, do you know if you should say something or not?"

"You and I, father and son, is it necessary to be so divided?" Jiang Gan said with a faint smile: "Ju'er, what did you think of?"

"This time His Highness the King of Chu returned to Yecheng, does it mean that His Majesty is afraid of the King of Chu?" Jiang Ju said, "Is it possible that His Majesty felt that His Highness the King of Chu's power had grown so much that he suppressed him before he was fully fledged?"

"Aren't you stupid!" Jiang Gan narrowed his eyes slightly, then sneered and said, "His Royal Highness Chu has done a very good job in Qingzhou. His subordinates include Canglang, Huxiao, Sujie, Blast, Back Cub, and Huben. The Sixth Army has been expanded again. Among them, the Huben Camp has 5000 soldiers and horses, and each of the other armies has 100 people. Moreover, he also held an imperial examination in Qingzhou, and selected more than [-] officials from poor families for his use. Lord Lu Chen's fourth son, Lu Yan, is also serving under the King of Chu, and the young man is eager for quick success, which naturally aroused His Majesty's suspicion. That's why he used the Queen's mouth to invite His Highness the King of Chu back to Beijing!"

In fact, Jiang Gan's guess was not complete. Ran Ming not only recruited the Sixth Army on the surface, but also secretly recruited the Seventh Army from the Northern Mansion. In this way, Ran Ming's army strength will reach more than [-] in one year.

"So it's really like this!" Jiang Ju said a little annoyed: "In this case, why don't we..."

Jiang Gan nodded in satisfaction, "That's right, it's really good. This idea is very good. It can confuse the audience and divert other people's attention. You can arrange it and don't show any flaws!"

……

After the reunion of Ran Ming's family, there was a moment of tenderness.After breakfast, Ran Ming found a brush and ink. Although he occasionally practiced calligraphy in later generations, it was just a hobby. Asking him to write great works with a brush would cost Ran Ming his life.

Fortunately, Li's calligraphy is good, dictated by Ran Ming, and entered by Li. Ran Ming has no foundation in classical Chinese, so he still follows the habits of later generations when he writes. The basic format is divided into four parts. The harm of Wei State, pointing out the consequences of appeasement and indulgence.The second is the necessity to deal with the elites of the gentry, and the third is the detailed plan.The last is to record the possible consequences and preventive measures.

The full text of this manuscript is more than 45 words, written in [-] sheets.

After Ran Ming dried the ink, he quickly took the plan to find Ran Min.

While Ran Min was reading the plan in detail, Ran Ming quietly told Empress Dong that he was too old and lived in the palace, which was inconvenient. After all, he had Li Shi, Ran Jingwen, Ran Juan, and Liu Wei.

Empress Dong thought that this was indeed the case, so she nodded and agreed to Ran Ming's request.

After waiting for half an hour, Ran Min finally finished reading Ran Ming's plan, and sighed, "This is just a temporary solution, not the root cause..."

Ran Ming said with a smile: "Father, now our Great Wei is in crisis, it is really not easy to find violent conflicts with the nobles, otherwise Yan Guo will wake up laughing from a dream!"

Ran Min nodded and said, "I'll be content with just venting my anger. I'll settle accounts with them slowly in the future."

Ran Min suddenly said: "Where is Tongshi Sheren?"

Tong Shisheren bowed and said, "The minister is here!"

Ran Min said: "The king of Chu has made great contributions to the country. I am the decree of Yecheng. The reward is five hundred, one thousand pieces of silk, one hundred each for the maid and one hundred servants! Let's draw up an order!"

Tong Shisheren bowed and said: "I obey the order!"

At this time, Empress Dong asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, Ming'er has grown up now, and it is a bit inappropriate to live in the palace again. Your Majesty will reward Ming'er with a house? Allow him to build a mansion?"

Ran Min thought about it, so he said generously: "Qili Ronghuafang, the former Wuxing Duke's mansion, since he moved into this palace for his father, that house has been vacant, and now I reward you!"

Duke Wu Xing, this is Ran Min's title when he was a general in Later Zhao.

"Thank you for your reward!" Ran Ming said, "My son, thank you for your reward."

Ran Min pondered: "You are allowed to open the mansion, but remember to visit your mother often in the palace!"

Ran Ming bowed and said, "The child understands!"
