Waving his hand, Di Renjie chuckled and said,""It's fine. This captain is loyal to his duty. I admire him very much!”

"Apologize to Mister!" Li Hao scolded Li Jian with a deliberately cold face.

Without any hesitation, Li Jian bowed to Di Renjie.

Standing at the side, Hu Jinghui quietly sized up Li Hao. From the moment he learned that Li Hao was assassinated, he realized that this was the Thunder Pavilion's move.

It was inevitable that he was surprised. One should know that the assassins of the Thunder Pavilion were numerous and their martial arts were excellent. This person was actually able to escape unscathed from the attack of the assassins of the Thunder Pavilion. Interesting.

He personally welcomed Di and Hu into the hall and instructed Ling 'er, who was waiting,"Bring tea for the two of you!"

After taking a seat, Li Haofang said to Di Renjie,""Why did the two of you come to Ji Province? What about the other one?"

Facing Li Hao's curiosity, Di Renjie explained,""The two of us wandered here and entered the city. However, something happened in the city and caused the city guards to be suspicious.”

"It seems that I have some fate with you! "If not for that, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to see you." Li Hao chuckled.

Di Renjie joined in the joke." General, you're a strict soldier. The quality of your soldiers is so strong that I'm amazed. The two of us are in a sorry state.”

"Please!" Ling 'er served tea and obediently waited at the side. This surprised Di Renjie. Such a heroic and beautiful girl was a female servant?

"I was in a hurry last time. May I know your name?”They raised their glasses in response.

Di Renjie replied softly,"My surname is Huai, my name is Ying, and I'm from Bingzhou!"”

"Huaiying?" Seeing this, Li Hao pretended to be surprised. He stared at Fatty Di's eyes and 'cautiously' probed,"As far as I know, the soon-to-be Governor of Youzhou, Prime Minister Di Gong, is called Huaiying!”

"General Li is indeed sharp. I am Di Renjie!”Di Renjie straightened his body and stroked his beard.

Hearing this, Li Hao put on an excited expression and got up to kowtow to Fatty Di.""Greetings, Viceroy! I'm not a good general. Please forgive me, Governor!”

"General Li, please excuse me!" Di Renjie kindly helped Li Hao up and pointed at Hu Jinghui, introducing him,""This is the emperor's trusted aide, Lieutenant General of the Thousand Bull Guard, Hu Jinghui. He has been ordered to assist me in investigating the 'diplomatic mission case'!”

"Greetings, General Hu!" Turning around, he cupped his hands towards Hu Jinghui.

Hu Jinghui still maintained his arrogance and only returned the bow lightly. Li Hao didn't mind. It was normal for the Sword Spirit to behave like this.

"As for the other person, he is Li Yuanfang, a former guerrilla general of the Ganliang Sect. Because the Turkic diplomatic mission was intercepted and killed, he failed to protect it, so he survived alone. However, I've assigned him to another mission, so he's not with me!”

Li Hao pretended to be enlightened. He still had some impression of Yuan Fang's matter.

"The news of the ambush of the Turkic diplomatic mission has already spread throughout the world.”Di Renjie glanced at Li Hao and said lightly.

"But…" Li Hao nodded and looked at Di Renjie in confusion."Your Excellency wants to investigate the diplomatic mission case. Why didn't you go to Gan Liang?”

"Jinghui asked me this question three days ago!”Di Renjie smiled and looked at Hu Jinghui.

"I'm just looking for some clues to Youzhou!”Di Renjie looked thoughtful as he looked at Li Hao.""General, since you're in Youzhou, you must have noticed something strange!”

"What do you mean?" Hearing Di Renjie's probing intent, Li Hao's expression was indifferent.

"Tell me about this Youzhou Provincial Governor Fang Qian!”

"Milord might not know, but this spring, he was transferred to Jizhou as governor to guard against the Turks. And that governor Fang Qian, originally should not have too much intersection.”

Hearing this, Li Hao rolled his eyes and said,""As far as I know, this provincial governor Fang Qian has been in office for more than three years and has great influence in the state. It's hard for me to judge him. However, I've seen that the commoners of Youzhou Province don't live well under his rule…"

"A few days ago, when you were in the city, you should have heard about the villagers 'riots. I heard that it was caused by the officials' greed for the court's consolation funds, the occupation of household fields, and oppression. However, I am not clear about the details of this matter. After all, I'm only the governor of Ji Prefecture. It's not good for me to say anything about the governor's governance!”

"But…"

Di Renjie listened carefully to Li Hao's story. It was a very simple story. He had heard about the customs these days and had some understanding of them.

"But what?" Di Renjie asked when he saw Li Hao's hesitation.

"Provincial Governor Fang Qian seems to have crossed the line. The soldiers, guards, and garrisons of Youzhou seem to have connections with him. This general doesn't know the situation of the troops stationed in other places, but this general knows very well that there are many spies in the Ji Prefecture!”

" When I first arrived, I felt that such an important place was too closely connected to the state city. I was afraid that something would go wrong," Li Hao replied. Therefore, the army was greatly reorganized and strictly disciplined. However, after that, Hu Rong, the county lieutenant, repeatedly opposed the generals. Hu Rong was the cousin of Hu Jinbao, the guerrilla general of the state city. Hu Jinbao had a close relationship with the governor. From this, I have to suspect that this person is under the command of the governor to restrain me.”

"In these past few months, Ji Province had two batches of military supplies, but they were unable to be supplied. He sent someone to ask about the matter, but was detained by the state capital's warehouse secretary. The last time I went to visit Ji County, I went to make a fuss and argued with him in the hall.”

"However, in the end, it was still perfunctory. "The original reserves in the pass are already insufficient. If a war breaks out now…" Li Hao sighed.

"Humph! This provincial governor is really bold!" Di Renjie slammed the small table hard, and his impression of Fang Qian worsened.

He listened very seriously. Wen Fangqian's forces had actually infiltrated the army. This could not help but shock him.

Frowning, he digested the news that Li Hao had brought him. The situation in Youzhou was indeed as complicated as he had expected.

"Youzhou is an upper province of the imperial court. The provincial governor is in charge of a region and has a high position. Although you are the governor of Jizhou and are very important, he has no right to dismiss you. However, you, a little general, dare to argue with him.”Di Renjie narrowed his eyes and sized up Li Hao.

"This general only knows how to march, fight, and serve the Imperial Court. As for offending my superior, this general doesn't think too much about it.”

"I see. If our Great Zhou had more people like General Li, we wouldn't have to worry about the Great Zhou's instability!”Fatty Di nodded in satisfaction.
