Ran Qiu, in history, is a very capable person in governance, he was the leader of the Ji family of Lu State, reformed Tian Fu, and repaired armor soldiers, so that Ji's power soon became the boss of the three Huan, and later in the battle with Qi State, as the commander of the left division, led Fan Chi and others to kill the Qi army crying father and mother.

It is precisely because of this that Lu Di recommended him to Qi Jinggong as the first person to pilot local political reform.

Because of this, Jimo has become a big city from a small coastal town.

It's just that after Chen Heng assisted the government, Chen Heng wanted to rein in Ran Qiu, but Ran Qiu didn't comply, so Ran Qiu was taken down by Chen Heng and imprisoned in Donglai Prison.

This is also the reason why everyone came to join Lu Di that day, but only Ran Qiu did not come.

After Lu Di learned that Ran Qiu was seriously ill, he immediately asked Ji Xian to go to Donglai in person, and now that it has been two months, there must have been results, so Lu Di asked.

When Wu Zixu heard this, his face was a little bitter and said: "The Great Divine Witch of Ji Xian has already returned, saying that although Ran Chengling's body has almost recovered, he is just afraid that the root of the disease left behind will be difficult to eradicate."

"The root of the disease, difficult to eradicate?" Lu Di's eyebrows instantly became Sichuan characters, Ran Qiu is the "great pioneer of tax reform" he has booked, if he has a physical problem, what about his own reform?

Thinking of this, Lu Di said in a deep voice: "Go, Xiangguo, you tell Ji Xian, no matter how much it costs, you must cure Ran Qiu's disease, the widow needs Ran Qiu, and a healthy person can serve Ran Qiu for another thirty years!" ”

"Nuo" Wu Zixu heard Lu Di's very domineering and rude words, but he was not a little unhappy, but obviously sobbed with emotion.

Lu Di was silent for a while, and then remembered something related to his grand strategy, and couldn't help but look at Wu Zixu again and said, "Have you sent the letter from the widow to the virtuous people in the opposition from all countries?" ”

Wu Zixu said: "Some of the ones that are close have been delivered, and they have been replied, such as the toad of the Qi country, Yi Qiu of the Lu country, Wai Xiao him, Yan Qi and others, they have expressed their willingness to go to the Lixia School Palace to help, but they do not accept the lord of the great country of Qi who was given the title by the king."

Lixia School Palace is Wu Zixu's name for the place where Confucius studied and learned, because the scale of the pavilion and corridor houses built by Lu Di and others in Lixia is not much smaller than that of Linzi Palace, so it is called a palace, which is not a boast.

Lu Di smiled after hearing this: "If they don't accept it, then go as they wish, but since they have come to the Qi country, they are the VIPs of the Qi country, and their etiquette and treatment should be the same standard as the doctor of the Qi country." ”

Wu Zixu promised when he heard this.

The two talked about something as they walked, and before leaving, Lu Di saw that Wu Zixu's face was a little hesitant, knowing that he must be indecided, he felt strange, and asked, "Xiangguo has something unspeakable?" ”

When Wu Zixu heard this, he sighed: "Your Majesty, Du Yan Lao Xiangguo, maybe just these few days, he asked someone to tell me yesterday that he wants to say that he is sorry for you, sorry for the first monarch!" ”

Although Du Yan is a person who loves power and is jealous of his ability, he is honest and honest as an official, which makes Wu Zixu admire him very much, so Wu Zixu's attitude towards him is still respectful.

Du Hu?

"Your Majesty, please arrest one person."

"I heard that Xia Wei was so extravagant and frivolous, so he took the whole country to become extravagant and frivolous, and then these two countries perished. Now that Zong Zhu is actually advocating extravagance and frivolity above the court of my Qi country, doesn't he want you to learn from Xia Wei and Shang to cause trouble in the world? Therefore, please order the arrest of Zong Zhu and impose a heavy sentence on him as an example! ”

"Your Majesty, the rooster that crows never lays eggs, and the rooster that lays eggs will be considered a monster and be killed, and if the hen does not concentrate on laying eggs but learns that the rooster crows every day, she will also be killed, because it is a loss of duty and a bad omen. Today's prince is not a son-in-law, not the eldest son, and he can't appear at such a grand court meeting as Guan'an, and he is on the right seat of the king, and his subordinates are afraid."

"Who are you to dare to talk to Tu Tu like this?"

"I am the Great Admonition"

"Oh, you're a big 'cheap' person, Du Yan!"

Poof, Du Hu spit out a mouthful of old blood.

The scenes of Du Yan's past in the court kept flashing in Lu Di's mind at this time.

Du Yan, after Linzi was taken down by Lu Di, as one of the "Chen Heng's rebellious companions", he was immediately arrested.

The scholars thought that Lü Di would destroy his clan in revenge, but Lü Di did not do so, and just imprisoned him in his mansion.

Wu Zixu bowed down to say goodbye when he saw Lu Di's appearance, and after he just walked two or three steps, Lu Di's voice came from behind him: "Xiangguo, arrange it, the widow wants to meet Du Yan." ”

Wu Zixu's body trembled when he heard this, and then said sonorously: "No."

"Grab it, catch it... I'm going to cut it! As soon as Lu Di sent Wu Zixu away, he heard the noisy voice of his beloved son Lu Qu.

Lu Di turned his head to look, only to see his beloved son holding a short sword on the small dirt mountain not far away, chasing a little wild boar with his teeth and claws, his pioneer was four round puppies, and the rear army was two sweaty guards of the fine willow battalion, and it was impossible to tell whether the guards were sweating, frightened, or tired.

Seeing this, Lu Di's muscles trembled, this broken baby can still make noise than when he was young!

The next morning, the sun was red.

Lu Di took the improved version of the No. 1 carriage of Qi State, and came to Du Yan's mansion under the protection of the elite people selected by the Xiliu Battalion and the Tiger Guard Battalion.

As soon as Lu Di stepped into the mansion, he saw a terminally ill old man kneeling in the middle of the courtyard, and behind him were two rows of men and women kneeling.

Lu Di knew that these people were Du Yan's family, and only then did he focus his eyes on the old man kneeling in the middle of the courtyard.

Full of sparse white hair, patches of age spots, shriveled body, and moaning with difficulty in exhaling and inhaling......

But at this time there was a strange flush on his face, a flush that could only be seen on the face of a newborn baby.

Lu Di knew that this was a return to the light, and Du Yan was going to die today.

"Du Xiang, get up!" Lu Di stepped forward to help Du Hu.

When Du Yan heard Lu Di call him Du Xiang, he burst into tears on the spot, a pair of pine bark hands, trembling as if he had been shocked, and he howled: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for the ancestors!" ”

Lu Di comforted Du Yan for a while, which stopped Du Yan's crying, and then he supported Du Yan in the fence garden on his house and walked slowly.

The scene is like a son walking in the park with his elderly father.

On the path in the fence garden, the protrusion of the soft cobblestone makes people extremely comfortable to step on.

Du Yan was helped by Lu Di to finish this part of the road.

After this journey, Du Yan gathered his family to say something, and soon died happily in tears.
