Li Ran saw that Lu Li finally remembered himself, so he naturally gave Lu Li a hug enthusiastically.

Xiao Man watched the two brothers hugging each other, and his mind was full of doubts, and he didn't know who this Li Ran was and how he knew Lu Li.

Lu Li looked at Xiao Man and introduced it to her.

"Xiaoman is my childhood friend, his name is Li Ran."

Li Ran patted Lu Li's shoulder.

"What's the matter with you kid, I came to Beijing and wanted to come to see you, but I didn't expect your wife to tell me that you have passed away, isn't this tricking me, why are you alive again?"

Lu Li shrugged, and at this time, he couldn't explain clearly for a while.

"All in all, I just encountered some things, so I could only cheat to death in the capital, and now I am carrying a human-skin-mask-mask to move outside, serving as the secretary of the criminal department, named Su Shuo, don't say it."

Li Ran nodded, since Lu Li said so, he naturally knew the importance of this matter.

Xiao Man looked at these two people, since Lu Li believed in him so much, it would not be too much to come to Su Xiaoman to inquire about what Li Ran was doing in Beijing again.

"Li Ran, what are you doing in Beijing?"

Now that he saw his friend Lu Li, Li Ran no longer had to hide anything, so Li Ran said to Lu Li with a frown.

"Lu Li, do you remember that many years ago, your father asked me to do something?"

Lu Li nodded to know that they were only teenagers at that time, and his father never mentioned this matter to him after that, and he still wondered if his father sent Li Ran to do some dangerous things, Li Ran was already separated from him at this time, but he didn't expect to see Li Ran again after so many years.

"Does this matter have anything to do with my father, what did your father want you to do back then?"

Li Ran took a breath and said to Lu Li.

"Lu Li, what kind of person do you think Lord Zhang Yu is?"

Lu Li thought about it and didn't know why Li Ran mentioned Master Zhang Yu who went to the study, so he felt a little strange.

To say that Lord Zhang Yu is also a veteran figure in the court, he is a person who has followed the emperor to fight the world, and he does not favor any party in the court, but he is like a good official who is honest and honest.

Hearing Lu Li say this, Li Ran's expression became even more disappointed, and Lu Li felt that something was wrong, could it be that his father took Li Ran away back then, and there are so many killers chasing him when Li Ran returned to Beijing today, is it all related to Zhang Yu?

What the hell is Li Ran doing that makes your expression so serious.

Li Ran slowly explained to Lu Li.

Lu Li, you don't know, because Zhang Yu made a lot of contributions, so the emperor gave Yuzhou to Zhang Yu as a fief, but although it is Zhang Yu's fief, the jurisdiction of Yuzhou is still handed over to the prefect of Yuzhou.

"The prefect of Yuzhou used to be your father's old friend, he was chased and killed by a killer many years ago, so he sent a letter to your father at that time, your father was in the military camp at that time, so he asked me to go to Yuzhou to support, but I didn't expect that when I arrived in Yuzhou, the magistrate of Yuzhou had been killed!"

Hearing this Li Ran suddenly mention the incident of a few years ago, Lu Li frowned suddenly.

"What, killed, why on earth did this kill the prefect? And why did you come to Beijing to report this matter until today, shouldn't you have said it back then? ”

Li Ran's brows were furrowed together, and when he thought of this, he felt his scalp tingle.

"Don't you know that at that time, I went to Yuzhou, the prefect was dead, at that time Yuzhou was in chaos, and the people who killed the prefect were the people of the Zhang family, because this fief belonged to Zhang Yu, and the people of the Zhang family were tricky in the local area, seizing the mountain as the king, and asking all the people in Yuzhou to listen to their Zhang family, not to listen to the court, but fortunately, the people of the Zhang family were not aligned, so when they fought for the position of the head of the Zhang family, they killed each other, I took advantage of their civil strife, and immediately got the official seal of the prefect, So I pretended to be the new prefect sent by the imperial court, and I have been dealing with them in Yuzhou. ”

Hearing Li Ran say this, Xiao Man's whole mouth was so frightened that he couldn't close it, you have to know how to fake such a thing as a court official, I didn't expect this Li Ran to be too bold, without the emperor's letter, he dared to be a fake prefect in Yuzhou for so many years.

"Li Ran, even if you get the official seal of the prefect, then you can't pretend to be the prefect so casually."

Li Ran shook his head.

Xiaoman, you don't know the situation at that time, at that time, Yuzhou was already in dire straits. If it weren't for me pretending to be the prefect, they would definitely cooperate with Master Zhang and find a puppet to be the prefect of Yuzhou, and then Yuzhou will really be the world of their Zhang family, so I really have no way to replace the prefect of Yuzhou for so many years.

Lu Li nodded and said, Li Ran also had no choice but to do this, if it was himself, I am afraid he would choose this way, after all, the most important thing is to stabilize the situation at that time.

"And then, and then what happened?"

Li Ran glanced at Lu Li and said slowly.

"Then don't you know, I heard the news that you have returned to Donglan Kingdom, I have always wanted to come to Shangjing to find you, but I have never had a chance, my fake prefect has not been discovered, but the reason why I am back in Shangjing now is because I can't control the situation anymore."

This makes it strange to say that Li Ran and the Zhang family have been fighting in Yuzhou for so many years, how could they suddenly lose control of the situation.

"What will happen to Li Ran, didn't you say that the Zhang family is in the midst of infighting, they can't swallow the entire Yuzhou for the time being, how can they suddenly get out of your control."

Li Ran sighed.

"Don't you know that a new character has appeared in the Zhang family, over there is the grandson of Lord Zhang Yu, named Zhang An, this Zhang An has been pretending to be a playboy before, cynical, soaking in the fireworks restaurant all day long, I don't know that in recent years, probably watching the Zhang family gradually go into decline, he took on the position of the head of the Zhang family, and those squirts before were just pretended by him, in fact, he was ruthless, and in just one month, he subdued all the people who disobeyed him in the Zhang family, The current Zhang family is very ambitious under his leadership, and he is determined to take the land of Yuzhou, and Zhang Yu is too smart, so his conspiracy does not stop there..."

At this time, the door of Xiaoman's room suddenly opened, and when Xiaoman saw Liniang standing at the door, he knew that Liniang should have passed by and heard their conversation.

Li Ran saw that Li Niang was vigilant all of a sudden, and immediately took out the dagger he was carrying, thinking that if Li Niang was an outsider, then kill her immediately to prevent the news from leaking.

Seeing Li Ran's reaction so quickly, Lu Li hurriedly stopped him Li Ran.

'Don't move, it's your own person. ’

Xiaoman was quite surprised to see Liniang's performance, so he asked.

"Senior Liniang, what's wrong with you? Why are you so nervous all of a sudden?"

Li Niang's eyes were all focused on Li Ran's body, and she asked Li Ran.

"What did you just say that person's name?"

Li Ran was stunned and repeated.

"Zhang An."

At this time, Li Niang's lips were no longer bloody.

"What, it's him."

Xiaoman saw that the diuresis seemed to know Zhang An, so he asked Liniang.

Senior Liniang, do you know this Zhang An?

I only saw Liniang say slowly.

"Xiaoman, didn't I mention it to you before, the three smartest people in the world have always had the title of the three wisdoms in the world, and two of the three wisdoms you have already seen, that is, me and Princess Bamboo Dye, and the last one is this Zhang An."

Unexpectedly, this Zhang An was so young, he actually took on the title of the world's three wisdoms, thinking that he must be unparalleled in resourcefulness, no wonder Li Ran was defeated against him.

Li Ran wanted to hear Li Niang say this, so he naturally felt very distressed, he was not only very smart, but also very vicious.

"He immediately debunked my identity as a fake prefect, and now there is no one to govern Yuzhou, there is no way I can only come to Shangjing to beg the emperor and send a new prefect to manage Yuzhou, if this is not the case, I am afraid that Yuzhou will soon fall into his world, and I received a secret report that he seems to have colluded with a princess of the previous dynasty, I think the princess of the previous dynasty must not have a simple purpose, it is they who want to endanger the entire Donglan Kingdom, then it is even more urgent."

Hearing the princess of the previous dynasty, Su Xiaoman and Lu Li glanced at each other, and knew that the person Li Ran said was not the princess of bamboo dyeing, but he didn't expect that after Princess Zhuran fled from Shangjin, she actually cooperated with the Zhang family, thinking that they were embarrassed, and it must not be a good thing.

"I hurried along the way, but I still walked for three months, there is no way that there are too many killers sent by this Zhang family, I can't kill them at all, I don't know if I can meet the emperor smoothly tomorrow, after all, I am not a serious prefect, if the emperor knows that I have pretended to be a prefect for so many years, I must also be punished, but the punishment is secondary, I hope the emperor will quickly send a powerful adult to govern Yuzhou, otherwise the people of Yuzhou will really be finished."

Lu Li nodded, and also felt that what Li Ran said was very reasonable, so he comforted Li Ran.

"Don't worry, I'll take you to meet the Holy One tomorrow."

Li Ran nodded, now it can only be like this, but the next day, Lu Li received news that the emperor was in poor health today and would not attend the early dynasty.

Hearing this, Li Ran's whole person became anxious, to say that Yuzhou was already in dire straits, how could this emperor not go to court early, and if he didn't go to court early, how could he report the news to him.

Lu Li persuaded Li Ran.

"Don't worry, the emperor doesn't go to court early, it should be because he is not feeling well, and when he gets better, I will take you directly to the study to see him."
