296. Mess
In order to be cautious, Gao Ran and Dong Tianyi agreed that the two would act separately: Dong Tianyi continued to act according to the original plan, but kept a close eye on the movements between those sects, while Gao Ran asked one of the two Heavenly Pavilion guards who had followed her all the way to this day and was sent by Gao Xi to secretly protect her, to contact Gao Xi on her behalf, and let Gao Xi use the intelligence network of the Heavenly Pavilion to spread Gao Liwen's true deeds in the Jiao Country to the streets and alleys - not only to make Gao Liwen famous in the Jiao Kingdom, but also to let Gao Liwen be far away in the Yunxiang Kingdom. The Fu family and the Yun royal family can hear a thing or two!
Gao Ran thought about it, since she is in the game at the moment, it is difficult to really see the truth of the matter, and it is easy to be misled, so it is better to take advantage of the strength she still has at the moment and pull in more "helpers" as soon as possible. And even if these "helpers" are likely to have different plans and different interests, they can suddenly turn the situation into chaos in a short period of time. - And that's what she wants.
- Especially if a force like her doesn't take sides, it is easier to see the most likely calculations in their hearts in this chaos, and through their most real reactions in this chaos, to snoop: How much do Gao Liwen and Fu know about Gao Liwen, and what are their most likely calculations?
Gao Ran wanted to know that when she was temporarily staying at Zhao Feng's house, Gao Liwen would come to see her in person, was this really what she wanted, or was she actually fooled by him and didn't know it?
And what she was most afraid of was that from the moment she saw Gao Liwen again, everything she did after that was actually expected by him, and she actually fulfilled him!
Gao Ran knew that in terms of scheming, she would definitely not be as good as Gao Liwen. It is not surprising that he will be used. But since she can see Dong Tianyi here, it has already been explained: at least, the information she currently shares with the Dong family has also been verified to be true after being checked by the Dong family......
But even so, her heart was still uneasy, and this uneasiness always lingered.
Therefore, in order to be foolproof, even if it is extremely risky to do so, Gao Ran has to artificially promote the chaos that will come sooner or later in advance in order to seek peace of mind.
It's just that, in this way, the chaos will no longer only affect a few small countries in and around Yunxiang Kingdom, but will be chaotic from the Banana Country and Yunxiang Country, and then implicate and affect each other......
"It turns out that this is what Gao Liwen wants!"
After Gao Ran watched the Heavenly Pavilion guard fly away with her instructions, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration: if Gao Liwen really used her, then he would naturally expect that she would eventually take this step in order to prevent being used by him. Then he used the Heavenly Pavilion to spread information, so that the Yun clan, the Gao clan, and the Fu clan were suddenly magnified because of the hidden worries they were most concerned about, and they had to take action as soon as possible.
- If this is really what Gao Liwen wants, then Gao Ran is likely to have done what he wants.
"If that's the case, then he's too insidious. I was able to get to this point—even if I thought of his most likely purpose, I still had to do what he wanted me to do in order to save myself......
"I said, how could he have come to see me in person so easily?
"It now seems that it was a decoy he deliberately threw at me to lure me in, and from then on every step I took after that would be in his calculations. And the reason why he has not changed at all is because I have not yet done anything that he did not expect......
"Could it be that he had already seen me through?
Gao Ran thought about it and denied many of her assumptions, but in the end she still thought of a possibility that even if it hurt her self-esteem, she did make sense:
Perhaps long before she planned that series of plans, she had already stepped into the framework that Gao Liwen had already set for her, and once she stepped into it, once the relationship with everyone in the bureau was determined, then her choices would no longer be at her disposal.
She will be forced by the situation more and more often, affected and entangled by various relationships in the bureau, and become more and more involuntarily - just like now: even if she has thought that if she chooses to artificially cause chaos to come early, it is likely to help Gao Liwen just a hand, but for the sake of self-preservation for the time being, even if she foresees that she is likely to put herself in a more dangerous situation in the future because of her actions today, Gao Ran still has to do so. - Otherwise, she may not even be able to get through the current difficulties, so where does the "future" come from?
At this moment, Gao Ran somewhat understands what kind of mood it is to "drink to quench your thirst"?
However, after the pessimism continued for a while, she finally began to slowly regain a little hope:
She then thought that even if she thought about it from the worst possibility, even if Gao Liwen could really understand the minds of each of them, once they almost came together because of their respective interests, then the changes in the situation in reality might not really be as he wished.
Because the development of the state of affairs will also have its own "will", it will not only be affected by people, but also by the environment that may change at any time, and the factors that affect its change this time are not just one or two people, but the game between the multiple forces from Yunxiang Kingdom, the Banana Country, and many small countries between these two big countries, as well as the game between the various factions within each faction......
But Gao Liwen can't be like Gao Ran, who can withdraw from it at any time at any cost, look at the whole situation with the mentality and perspective of a bystander, and change his alliance strategy at any time to save himself in time.
- For Gao Ran, it is not difficult for her to do this. Because she has more or less various relationships and connections with those forces, and what she really wants will not contradict the bottom line that those forces cannot violate, so compared to Gao Liwen, Gao Ran naturally has more possibility of always upholding neutrality. And Gao Liwen, not to mention that he doesn't have this possibility, even if he can, he will disdain to choose this path of self-preservation. Because what he wants is not to save his life, but to either take this opportunity to become the last victor and dominate the world, or to exhaust the last strength for his ideals, that is, to die, and to die as he deserves!
And his ideals are naked/naked/naked to violate the rare and only common bottom line of those forces!
But the funny thing is that even so, those forces will not unite against Gao Liwen because of his common enemy - this gives Gao Liwen a chance.
"If they are united enough, instead of harboring their own ghosts, then even if Gao Liwen still wants to dominate the world, he will never choose this way, but will be like the other side of his 'no sense of existence' extreme, quietly using the contradictions of interests between various factions within each force to slowly drag them down and corrupt them in a little bit of internal friction. - Such a 'gentle', low-key approach, as long as he is properly measured, can also make him finally reap the benefits. It's just that it might take a little longer......"
However, according to Gao Ran's understanding, the internal friction within the forces of Guangyun Xiangguo has actually deteriorated to the point that their overall "health state" is almost in the "advanced stage......
It seems that even if Gao Liwen does not take the initiative to provoke and cause war, the internal war between the two countries will come.
"It's just that because of his relationship, the war between these two countries is probably going to spread to each other, and eventually burn into one. Then, either they end up united, or they continue to exist separately. But if they exist, then they will take this opportunity to increase their control over the small countries between the two countries - the role of the 'buffer zone', after this war, I believe that both countries will keep in mind!
"It's just that in this way, those small countries are out of luck. But there is no way to do it, and who allows them to be left in a 'buffer zone'? Doomed: they cannot choose their 'enemies' or their 'friends'; if they benefit from one of the two powers, they dare not indulge so as not to offend the other; but if the two great powers quarrel with each other, then these small countries are the first to suffer. -- If the two big countries only want to 'make a small fuss' over a small contradiction, they will definitely choose to exchange fire in the 'buffer zone' rather than spread the flames of war to their own territory...... Tsk......"
The reason why Gao Ran thought of these things and analyzed them so carefully and silently was nothing more than thinking about the future, after everything settled, if she was still alive, then where should she choose to settle down?
Although on the way to Banana Country before, she had made a special detour to pass through all the small countries in the "buffer zone", and she had indeed encountered beautiful scenery and wonders that were so beautiful that she even made her linger, but after her analysis at the moment, she felt that those small countries could travel occasionally, but they were not suitable for her to settle down. She still wanted to find a quiet place where it was best to settle down without being disturbed until she died......
Although she also missed the hermitage she had Qiao'er take care of for her, for the sake of safety, she still felt that there was no only one place to return—— and the cunning rabbit still had three holes!
