Shaking his head lightly, Li Hao revealed a handsome smile and slowly walked to Lu Dayou who was still lying on the ground, helping him up. He pulled out the long saber from his waist and handed it to him.
Li Hao's meaning was obvious. He wanted Lu Dayou to kill his enemy.
Seeing this, Hu Jinghui put away his saber and moved aside. Di Renjie looked at Li Hao's performance and couldn't help but label him as a " chivalrous man."
Li Hao's actions were a little casual. He had this thought in his heart, so he did it.
He did not have much sympathy for Lu Dayou. In this world, there were many people who were more miserable than him, but he was not lucky enough to meet Di Renjie…
Of course, Fatty Di and Hu Jinghui had been acting tough in the Second Hall of the State Yamen. How could Li Hao continue to be a spectator? He had to stir up some trouble to make his presence known.
Lu Dayou was just an honest farmer. It was fine for him to kill chickens and pigs, but killing people was a little difficult for him.
However, hatred could always give people courage. Li Hao's saber was not light, and his hands were trembling as he held the hilt.
However, Lu Dayou then took the knife and slashed at the enemy. The enemy had no room to dodge and was stabbed through the abdomen.
Fresh blood flowed out and stained the solemn hall. Most of the people present held their breaths as they watched the captain who had been released fall into a pool of blood. He twitched a few times and slowly breathed his last.
Lu Dayou was stunned for a while. Hu Jinghui stepped forward and patted his shoulder lightly.
The steel knife in his hand fell, making a heavy collision sound. Only then did he completely regain his senses. Lu Dayou picked up the knife and handed it back to Li Hao with both hands. His eyes flashed with gratitude.
The matter came to an end. Di Renjie glanced at everyone in the hall and said seriously,""From now on, any Youzhou officials or soldiers who commit crimes, bully the good will be punished by this thief!”
"Hang the head of this thief in the north gate as a warning to the entire Youzhou!”
"Yes, sir!" Fang Qian was already completely stunned and did not dare to have any objections at all.
After a moment of silence, Di Renjie pointed at Li Er who was lying on the stretcher and asked,""What crime has this person committed? You call me a traitor?"
Seeing Di Renjie ask, Fang Qian quickly replied,""This person's name is Li Er. He killed an official and escaped from prison.”
"Jailbreak? What crime did he commit before he escaped?" Li Hao suddenly added.
Di Renjie smiled and looked at Fang Qian. This was what he wanted to ask.
Fang Qian's expression tightened, and he subconsciously replied,""This person is a Turkic spy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Sima Wu Yizhi's expression changed. Hu Jinghui glared at Fang Qian. Li Hao looked at Fang Qian as if he was watching a show.
"A Turkic spy…" Di Renjie muttered and looked down at Li Er."There is one thing I don't understand. This Li Er is extremely poisonous and was rescued by the villagers of Little Lianzi Village. Little Lianzi Village is far away in the mountains. Lord Fang is in Ji County, the capital of the prefecture. How did he know of his whereabouts and send people to capture him?”
" This..." Forced by Di Renjie to ask this question, Fang Qian was completely unable to respond and stuttered.
"Why? Is there anything inconvenient about this?”Di Renjie asked.
Fang Qian's expression was constantly changing. He frowned and racked his brains to think of a response. Unable to withstand the pressure of Di Renjie's gaze, he explained,"A 'righteous citizen' reported this to me!”
"Yimin?" Di Renjie was even more curious. Rushing dozens of miles to report him? How did he know that Li Er was a wanted criminal in the mountains? Where are the righteous people you speak of?”
After being questioned by Di Renjie several times, Fang Qian sat on his seat. It was probably because of the hot weather. The sweat on his forehead could not stop flowing, or it was because of his kidney deficiency...
After hesitating for a while, Fang Qian answered with a twinkle in his eyes,"I don't know…"
Di Renjie laughed out loud.
He did not make things difficult for Fang Qian anymore. The effect of today's "surprise attack" on the state government was very good. He had shaken the mountain and shocked the tiger, and his gains were not small. Pointing at Li Er, Di Renjie said lightly,""This person will be temporarily detained in my place. When he recovers and wakes up, I will personally interrogate him. If it is as you said, this person has committed a heinous crime, it will not be too late to execute him!”
" But..." Fang Qian obviously wanted to say something but was interrupted by Di Renjie.
His sharp gaze made Fang Qian feel guilty."Lord Fang, is there any other problem?”
"No…no, I'll leave everything to you, sir!”
The Provincial Governor's Office regained its peace, but most of the people who had seen the "storm of the two halls" could not calm down.
The news that Di Renjie had arrived at Youzhou Province spread quickly in the middle of the night.
Soon, the officials of Youzhou Province realized that Fang Qian was not the most important person in Youzhou Province in the future…
"How could Di Renjie have arrived at Youzhou Province?”In his room, Fang Qian muttered in a daze.
"Milord, how could you connect 'Li Er' with the Turkic spy just now?”Wu Yizhi's tone was a little anxious." What kind of person is Di Gong? If we let him follow this line to the bottom, it will ruin the big deal!"”
Fang Qian did not blame Wu Yizhi's tone and said weakly,""Di Renjie's sudden arrival has thrown the state into chaos.”
"There is no false reputation! Di Renjie was really not easy to deal with!”
Wu Yizhi sighed." First, we'll create a diversion. We'll go to Beidu in the open and sneak into Youzhou. Then, he used another trick. The Viceroy's Guards were still at the border of Youzhou, but he was already at the state capital. We were completely caught off guard!”
Fang Qian sat on the chair, holding the hot tea that the servant had served him. However, he felt that it was not good to drink it, and his fingers were slightly trembling.
"Why would Di Renjie appear in the mountains and be related to Li Er?”Fang Qian's tone was full of doubt and even more panic,""Did he suspect Li Er's identity just now?”
Thinking of his answer in the hall that was full of mistakes, Fang Qian could not help but reveal a bitter expression.
At the mention of "Li Er", Wu Yizhi's face was solemn. He said to Fang Qian,"Sir, now that Li Er is in Di Renjie's hands, if he wakes up, the situation will be in danger!”
"I know!" Fang Qian's face was as dark as water. He suppressed his voice and spat out three words.
He was still stunned. He didn't know how to deal with the current situation. Di Renjie's sudden appearance had completely disrupted their rhythm!
"The higher-ups just reminded us to be careful and act cautiously, and now such a big mistake has happened!”Wu Yizhi sighed heavily.
