" I can't sleep…" Sitting on the bed, Hu Jinghui looked at Di Renjie."We've been in Youzhou Province for a few days, but we haven't made any progress in the diplomatic mission case. I, sigh…"
Looking at Hu Jinghui's sigh, Di Renjie smiled instead.""It's not that we haven't made any progress. At least, I've confirmed that the mastermind is hiding in Youzhou Province!”
Di Renjie's tone was very certain, but Hu Jinghui couldn't help but sigh.""However, all of this is ultimately just your speculation and judgment, and there is no evidence to support it. If my lord is wrong, then wouldn't we have wasted so much time?”
Previously, he had a feeling that he would not be happy if he did not say it. With this said out, Hu Jinghui's heart seemed to feel much more comfortable. Seeing Di Renjie's thoughtful look, he quickly stood up and cupped his hands to apologize."I was too quick with my words, please forgive me!”
"Jinghui is innocent! You have such scruples, but you are loyal to your duty and your performance of being loyal to the orders of the higher-ups. How can I blame you!”
Di Renjie was still smiling. I do have the possibility of making mistakes!”
Seeing Di Renjie's response, Hu Jinghui heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.
"These days, I've observed that Youzhou Province is facing a very serious problem! Even if I investigate the diplomatic mission case wrongly, I can take the opportunity to resolve the chaos in Youzhou and secure the border of Hebei Province!”Di Renjie said lightly.
"If the diplomatic mission case cannot be solved, the Great Zhou and the Turks will definitely start a war again. Aren't you worried about this situation?”Hu Jinghui couldn't help but ask.
"That's right! If it really came to that, a great battle would be inevitable, and they could only fight. If peace cannot be achieved, how can our Great Zhou fear the Turks?”Di Renjie's expression changed. His eyes were cold and resolute as he said solemnly,""Avoiding battle doesn't mean that we are afraid of battle!”
" It's just a pity that they were taken advantage of by the evildoers. Now that I think about it, the purpose of their assassination of the diplomatic mission might be to provoke a war between the two countries..." Speaking of this, Di Renjie's eyes lit up. It seemed to make sense.
After pondering for a while, Di Renjie revealed a sly smile.""Besides, my guess might not be wrong! Do you remember what I explained to you and Yuan Fang when we first arrived at Youzhou Province? Now, that feeling was even stronger!”
Hearing this, Hu Jinghui nodded and looked at Di Renjie, whose expression had eased.""Daren must have gained a lot from Li Hao, right?”
"Don't you think that this little general has told us a lot of useful information?”Di Renjie asked.
" That's right…" Hu Jinghui's expression was calm."Milord, could it be that his assassination was the work of the rebels hidden in the dark? But what was their purpose? Could it be the Ji Prefecture?"
"I've thought about this too!" " That's why I've told you that the water in Youzhou Province is unfathomable!" Di Renjie smiled faintly.”
"I believe that with your wisdom, you will definitely be able to find out the bottom of Youzhou!”Hu Jinghui seemed to be very confident in Di Renjie, but the meaning revealed in his slightly lowered eyes was somewhat insincere.
"The event in Youzhou Province has just begun!”Di Renjie didn't notice the strange look in Hu Jinghui's eyes. He rubbed his feet in the basin and stepped on the edge of the basin.
Seeing this, Hu Jinghui got up and took the towel on the wooden shelf to wipe Di Renjie's feet. Since Di Renjie had stopped him, he should do it himself.
After wiping his feet, Di Renjie asked Hu Jinghui,""Jinghui, what do you think of Li Hao? I feel that you seem to be very against him!”
"This general has also fought his way out of the battlefield. I can feel that this person has definitely experienced war! Just look at the defense of Jizhou, its ability to command troops, the ability to govern the army, can not be underestimated!”
From the first time Hu Jinghui looked at Li Hao, he had an unexplainable sense of malice in his heart and was somewhat fearful, but his evaluation of him wasn't considered low. He didn't want to belittle Li Hao, especially in front of Di Renjie.
"Yes, in recent years, the surrounding areas have been in turmoil. There are Tubo in the west, the Turks in the north, and the Khitans in the east. Like Li Hao, if he had more experience, he could become a border general!”Di Renjie whispered.
Fatty Di was obviously not confident when he said this. Most of the generals sent by the Empress were only related to Li Hao. He wondered if Li Hao's status would be acceptable!
Di Renjie did not know that Li Hao was still a member of Li Tang's royal family. On the surface, Li Hao was just a civilian who had joined the army and had made great contributions.
Di Renjie was also worried that the empress would not hire such a person because of his identity as a commoner.
"As for the rejection towards him, it's probably because he's so young and yet he's already the governor of Ji Prefecture. He's unconvinced and jealous." At this moment, Hu Jinghui's lips curled into a smile as he found an excuse."I joined the army and fought for more than ten years. Yuan Fang had also joined the army at a young age. With a saber and a sword, she had fought her way up to become a guerrilla general.”
Looking at Hu Jinghui calmly saying his thoughts, Di Renjie could roughly understand his feelings. There were indeed many things in this world that seemed unfair. At least Li Hao was talented and had made contributions.
Looking at the court, there were many untalented and untalented Wu Kings who were given official titles and held power because of their surname, Wu.
Di Renjie could not help but praise Hu Jinghui's attitude.""Jinghui is able to face the jealousy in his heart and speak it out calmly. With this bearing, few people in the world can compare to him!”
Hu Jinghui smiled,"Milord, you flatter me."
He retracted his smile and raised his head. Hu Jinghui asked curiously,""What plans do you have next, sir? Should we continue to visit incognito?"
"No!" At the mention of this matter, Di Renjie's expression turned solemn and he sneered,""It's time to meet that provincial governor Fang Qian!”
Hu Jinghui's eyes lit up.”
"The Commander-in-Chief's Guards are about to reach Youzhou, and Yuan Fang is about to lead the villagers of the Willow Tree to the prefecture capital!”Di Renjie nodded and said,"
"Tomorrow, we will return to Little Lianzi Village.”
"Why?" Hu Jinghui's heart tightened.
"I can't say, I can't say!" Fatty Di could not help but act cool.
Seeing this, Hu Jinghui's eyes flashed. He could guess that Di Renjie was thinking about Li Er.
After exiting Di Renjie's room, Hu Jinghui looked toward the mountains in the southwest direction. Lan should have already heard about the news of Li Er, but he didn't know if she had sent someone to deal with it.
It was rare for Hu Jinghui to be so worried. After all, it was the first time he, Viper, had lost his hand on " Li Er "!
