Chapter 589
The next morning, Li Ran opened his sleepy eyes.
Last night, because of Gongeryue's incident, he tossed and turned and stayed up all night, so that he was a little out of spirits.
After Li Ran got up, he first took a ladle of water, wiped it with cold water, and then straightened his clothes a little.As soon as he went out, he found that Chu Dang and Fan Li were already waiting outside.
Seeing Li Ran, Fan Li immediately took a step forward.
"Sir, we have to go meet Lord Siko!"
Li Ran nodded, Li Guang hadn't gotten up yet, and last night was actually a farewell.
Li Ran, Fan Li and Chu Dang stepped out of the mansion together. When they got into the carriage, Li Ran found that Gong Eryue was looking at him at the gate.
Li Ran waved to her, and got into the car anyway, Fan Li followed, and Chu Dang drove.
Li Ran lifted the car curtain and looked at Gong Eryue in a daze.
Seeing this, Fan Li couldn't help laughing and said:
"Since that's the case, sir, why don't you say a few words to Miss Yue?"
Hearing this, Li Ran slowly lowered the car curtain:
"Everything that should be warned yesterday has already been told, and it is speechless to say more."
Fan Li actually covered his mouth and laughed, Li Ran couldn't help but wondered when he saw his appearance:
"Huh? Why is Shaobo making fun of you?"
Fan Li stopped laughing and said:
"After coming back this time, Mr. and Miss Yue will get closer. It's a great joy for everyone in the Li family, and Guang'er must be very happy."
At that moment, Li Ran suddenly remembered the painting that Li Guang had graffitied last time.
And that painting depicts the scene when he and Gong Eryue went to the church to get married.He originally thought it was absurd, but he never thought that he would be poked by Guang'er's drawing.
Between the words, the two came to the Confucian mansion.
At this time, Confucius also had the edict issued by the monarch.Sanhuan's motorcade also gathered in front of the Confucian mansion.
A group of people, surrounded by soldiers, went out of the city gate.
Seeing that the three armies of the State of Lu were lined up outside the city and ready to go, waiting for the arrival of Confucius and other adults.
Afterwards, after Confucius took the stage and read out some oaths, he gave an order, and the three armies officially set off, heading towards Chengyi in a mighty manner.
After traveling like this for five days, they arrived only fifty miles away from Chengyi. Confucius ordered to set up camp on the spot.
At this time, Meng Sunheji finally received a private message from Gong Lianyang.
In the letter, Gong Lianyang really showed his true intentions.
In his letter, he actually stated his opinion directly, explaining the reasons why Chengyi could not fall:
First, Chengyi is a large border city in the north of Lu State, which plays a decisive role in preventing Qi State from invading.So if it is demolished, the Qi people will have no barrier to defend when they invade Lu.
Secondly, Cheng Yi is the guarantee of the Meng family. Without Cheng Yi, the Meng family will cease to exist in the future.
Thirdly, it was Li Ran who was the instigator of the Three Capitals incident, and Li Ran openly expressed his dissatisfaction with Ji Pingzi and even Sanhuan after drinking at night not long ago.This person has suspicious intentions, so at this juncture, we have to be on guard against this person.
When Mengsun Heji saw this, he threw the brocade and silk secret book directly into the brazier. He watched the letter ignite a cluster of flames, but he still hesitated...
Confucius and Li Ran didn't know yet, so they first sent people into the city to inform them of the monarch's edict.
Gong Lianyang, on the other hand, did not make things difficult and just replied calmly:
"Although it is the king's order, the act of becoming a city is not in line with etiquette, let alone morality, so please forgive Yang for not agreeing!"
Hearing what Gong Lianyang said, the emissary who came into the city seemed to be prepared, and immediately asked:
"The main city of Sanhuan, its organizational system even exceeds that of the capital city. Is this in line with the etiquette system? What's more, this is the order of the emperor. Why does Lord Gonglian want to learn from the marquis? Gongshan is not evil?"
After hearing this, Gong Lianyang couldn't help but snorted coldly:
"Hmph! Your Majesty has been bewitched by someone, and Fei Yi and Li Yi have already been forced to rebel against him. Are you going to make the same mistakes again and again?! My lord, Lianyang, will never tear down the city wall of Cheng Yi!"
The envoy couldn't help being startled when he heard the words, and then said:
"My lord, please think again. Now our three armies of the Lu Kingdom are arrayed outside the city!"
Gong Lianyang couldn't help laughing when he heard the sound:
"You... Are you threatening me?"
The messenger said:
"How dare a villain threaten the lord, but if the lord refuses to obey the order, even Dr. Mengsun, I'm afraid... can't protect you!"
Gong Lianyang got up angrily, and waved again:
"Come on! See off!"
Then, when two soldiers came in, the messenger stood up directly with one hand and one hand.
Just listen to Gong Lianyang and continue to say:
"Hmph! Everything I do is for Chengyi, for my Meng family! No matter what, my father-in-law Lian will defend Chengyi for the lord! If you have the guts, just let your horses come here!"
"I, Gong Lianyang, reversed!"
The envoy was carried out of Chengyi and then returned to the military camp.
He told all the things that happened in Chengyi in detail.
Kong Qiu, San Huan, Li Ran and Fan Li present all looked at each other in blank dismay.
Confucius was the first to speak:
"It seems... what we were worried about before finally happened! Master Mengsun, do you have any reply to your letter to Gong Lianyang?"
Meng Sun Heji was a little flustered, but shook his head resolutely:
"I haven't received any reply yet!"
Li Ran saw that Mengsun Heji's brows seemed to tremble slightly, and felt that he seemed to be hiding something.
Kong Qiu, on the other hand, only snorted:
"Since that's the case, then no wonder I waited and prepared to attack the city!"
As a "non-staff" personnel, Li Ran is inconvenient to say more, but Meng Sun Heji said:
"Master, wait a minute!"
When Confucius heard this, he looked at Mengsun Heji strangely.
Mengsun Heji sighed again:
"Chengyi is the main town of the Meng family after all. Although Gong Lianyang wants to seize the city and rebel against Lu, I still hope that I can invite Gong Lianyang to talk face to face."
When Confucius heard this, he could not help but narrow his eyes:
"He Ji, the matter has reached this point, and there is no point in talking anymore. Why do you want to meet him?"
Seeing that Mengsun Heji seemed to defend the delay, Ji Sunsi couldn't help but stood up and said:
"That's right! This city is sure to fall, so what's the use of talking to it?"
Mengsun Heji sighed again, and replied:
"Feiyi and Qiyi brought such war disasters to our country of Lu, and Chengyi is doing the same now. I'm afraid that if this war disaster comes together, it will be a disaster for our country... I, Mengsun Heji, although I am not talented, but I am also a If we want to resolve this matter peacefully, wouldn't it be better if we could luckily avoid the disaster of war?"
"As for the meeting, I will go alone and invite him to come down to meet me outside the city gate. I will not drag you down."
Ji Sunsi listened, but still curled his lips in disdain:
"Do you think Gong Lianyang can still listen to you? How did Yanghu treat us back then? Have you forgotten all about it?"
Shusun Zhouqiu also said from the side:
"That's right, it's better not to waste any more time here. Mr. Ziming is in the camp now, and he must have a clever plan. Mr. Ziming, I don't know if it is or not?"
Shusun Zhouchou changed the topic in time, and everyone looked at Li Ran in unison.
Li Ran actually wanted to play by ear at this time.
Hearing that Uncle Sun Zhouqiu mentioned himself suddenly, he said:
"You can encircle Chengyi first, but don't attack. Let's see how Gong Lianyang will deal with it. It's not too late to make a fuss!"
