Speaking of Li Yuanfang, her life before she followed Di Renjie was really bitter.
He was originally a prefecture soldier, but after many years of bloody battles, he finally became a guerrilla general of the Gan Nan Road from the fifth rank.
Although this position was not big, it was already a big achievement for Li Yuanfang, who was only twenty-four years old and had no background.
Of course, compared to Zhang Dingguo, who was the martial arts champion, he was still inferior!
Perhaps it was because Li Yuan Fang's talent was valued, or perhaps it was simply because he could speak Turkic, but the result was that he was appointed as the guard captain of the Turkic diplomatic mission.
Logically speaking, this was a good job for nothing. As long as they could safely send the Turkic diplomatic mission to Luoyang, it would be a great merit.
Unfortunately, when Li Yuan Fang led his team to stay overnight at Stone River River, they were ambushed by a large group of killers, so that everyone except him was killed.
If the others were dead, then there was still room for turning the situation around. However, the problem was that with the death of Shibi Khagan, even if Li Yuan Fang was not framed, she would still be severely punished for dereliction of duty!
At that time, losing his official position would be a small matter, and he might even be sentenced to death by the Emperor, thus giving an explanation to the Khan of Haojili.
But since things had come to this, Li Yuan Fang could only accept it. He prepared to rush to the nearest city so that he could report the major incident at Stone River to his superiors.
However, every time Li Yuan Fang approached the city, he would be attacked by unknown evildoers. It was the same time and time again. At one point, he thought that the people who raided the diplomatic mission had come to kill him again. In order to avoid the pursuit of these people, Li Yuan Fang hid in the wild for several days.
When Li Yuan Fang finally managed to shake off the people chasing after him and escape into a county city, he found his own arrest warrant!
As a result, he couldn't report the Stone River to the local officials.
After all, the local officials were not familiar with him. The first thing they would do when they saw him was to arrest him and escort him to Luoyang to receive his reward. Why would they listen to his explanation? Once they were escorted to Fairy's Capital, they would definitely be locked up in the imperial prison and interrogated by the internal guards…
Just thinking about it made him shudder!
Therefore, Li Yuan Fang wanted to find a place with no one to hide first. After the news died down, he would go to the former officer to explain the whole story.
After all, the old officer was an acquaintance. At the very least, he would give Li Yuanfang a chance to defend herself, which meant that she would have a chance to clear her name.
However, what Li Yuan Fang did not understand was that he seemed to have been stared at by a pair of eyes. No matter where he went, there were people coming to arrest him for the reward.
If it was just ordinary people from the martial world who came to provoke him, then killing them was no big deal. However, the problem was that there were people from the public sects who came to arrest him from time to time! Li Yuan Fang couldn't afford to offend these people, because once they killed someone from the public sect, it would be a crime on top of a crime.
It was a serious crime to begin with, and it was hard to say if he could be exonerated. If he committed a new serious crime again, he would probably have to run for his life!
Just like that, Li Yuan Fang actually suffered dozens of waves of attacks in the few days he was hiding. After these fierce battles, even though he had won all of them, he had also suffered serious injuries all over his body. He was almost at the point where he was about to run out of oil.
As a last resort, he could only take the risk and sneak into the Spiritual State to recuperate.
Then, under Yu Feng's persuasion, he came to Tiger Cage Pass to look for Di Renjie…
In the Tiger Cage Pass courier station, Di Renjie and Zhang Dingguo gathered together to continue discussing the case because they could not sleep.
"Dingguo, let me ask you a question. If you were this Li Yuan Fang, what would you do after killing the Turkic envoy?”
Di Renjie relied on his intuition over the years to analyze the four key points of the case through the limited information that Zhang Dingguo had given him.
1. The only survivor of the True Turkic diplomatic mission, Li Yuanfang; Second, how did the fake Turkic diplomatic mission suddenly disappear under the escort of five thousand soldiers? Third, why was Princess Yiyang killed on the day before the fake diplomatic mission set off, and why was the fake diplomatic mission kidnapped? Fourth, what was going on with the fire in the earthen kiln?
However, due to the lack of clues and the fact that he had received official documents about Li Yuanfang's murder of more than ten constables in Lingzhou when he arrived at Tiger Cage Pass in the evening, Di Renjie wanted to discuss Li Yuanfang's illogical behavior with Zhang Dingguo.
"If I were Li Yuanfang, I would definitely find a place to hide or simply escape abroad. In any case, I wouldn't give others the chance to exchange my head for the bounty.”Zhang Dingguo would definitely not dare to say that he did not dare to do it like Di Chun did. Instead, he directly said what a normal person would do.
"Yes, that's right. This is the logical way to do things! But for some reason, not only did Li Yuanfang not hide, he even went to the Spiritual State to commit a major crime, as if he was afraid that the government would not know of his existence?”Di Renjie was puzzled.
When Zhang Dingguo saw that it was about time, he deliberately deduced,""Maybe someone didn't want him to hide?”
"Who is it?" After being reminded by Zhang Dingguo, Di Renjie suddenly felt enlightened!
"If there really is someone, it can only be the real mastermind behind this case.
If Li Yuan Fang was in cahoots with them, then it meant that they wanted to silence Li Yuan Fang, but in the end, they did not succeed. Instead, Li Yuan Fang escaped.
If they weren't in cahoots, then they were either trying to silence him or frame him, right?”
In order to prevent Di Renjie from noticing anything unusual, Zhang Dingguo used an uncertain tone and told Li Yuanfang the truth.
" That makes sense. I didn't expect Dingguo to be so skilled at settling cases. But I feel that it's not that simple..."
Speaking of the devil, Zhang Dingguo suddenly heard faint footsteps outside the window.
There was no need to think too much. That must be Li Yuanfang!
Then, the candle in the room suddenly went out.
Although Zhang Dingguo had guessed that it was Li Yuanfang, he still pulled out the Dragon Spring Sword that he carried with him and pointed in Li Yuanfang's direction. He whispered to Di Renjie,""Elder, be careful. Please stand behind me!”
At this moment, Li Yuan Fang saw that she had been discovered, so she could only light the candle again and reveal her figure. She said somewhat respectfully,"As expected of a famous scholar. General Zhang is indeed worthy of being the new martial arts scholar. He sensed my existence in an instant.”
"You flatter me. If it weren't for your heavy injuries, your footsteps, and unstable aura, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to discover your existence so easily.”Zhang Dingguo deliberately said in a cold tone...
