After some thought, the wrinkles on Di Renjie's forehead formed.
He kept stroking his beard, and that old beard was about to fall off.
Three knocks on the door made Di Renjie come back to his senses. He raised his head and asked,""Who is it?"
" Milord, it's me, Jinghui…" Hu Jinghui's deep voice came from outside the door.
"Come in!" Di Renjie said.
The door was not locked, Hu Jinghui pushed the door open and entered.
He was holding a small basin of steaming water in his hand.
"Sir, the water is cold, right? I'll refill it for you.”
"How can I trouble you, a dignified Lieutenant General of the Thousand Bull Guard, to add water to my bath!”
Seeing Hu Jinghui step forward,
Di Renjie's eyes revealed a touch of emotion as he smiled.
Shaking his head, Hu Jinghui's face did not have the sharpness he had in front of others."
"I treat Daren like a father, so this is nothing. I saw a servant bringing water, so I brought it over!”
"Sit!" Di Renjie gestured for Hu Jinghui to sit down and looked at him kindly."
"It's so late, why aren't you sleeping? What's the matter?”
" I can't sleep…" Sitting on the bed, Hu Jinghui looked at Di Renjie.
"We've been in Youzhou Province for a few days.
There was no progress at all in the diplomatic mission case. I, sigh…"
Looking at Hu Jinghui's sigh, Di Renjie smiled instead."
"It's not that there's no progress at all. At least I'm sure now.
The mastermind was 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 we'll be poles apart."
Wouldn't he have wasted so much time?”
Previously, he had a feeling that he would not be happy if he did not say it. Now that he said it,
Hu Jinghui felt much better.
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 this scruple, but you are faithful to your duty,
How can I blame you for your sincerity!”Di Renjie was still smiling."
"Moreover, what you said is not without reason.
I do have the possibility of making mistakes!”
Seeing Di Renjie's response, Hu Jinghui heaved a sigh of relief.
He gave a silly smile.
"These days, I've observed that Youzhou Province is facing a very serious problem!
Even if I investigated the diplomatic mission case wrongly,
He could also take the opportunity to resolve the chaos in Youzhou and stabilize the important province in the north!”Di Renjie said lightly.
"If the diplomatic mission case cannot be solved, the Great Zhou and the Turks will definitely fight 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 war would be inevitable.
Then 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 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...
Maybe he wants to start a war between the two countries…"
At this point, 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."
"Milord must have gained a lot from Yuan Ji!”
"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 Juyong Pass?"
"I've thought about this too!" Di Renjie smiled faintly."
"Therefore, I've told you that the water in Youzhou Province is unfathomable!”
"I believe that with your wisdom, you will definitely be able to find out the bottom of Youzhou!”
Hu Jinghui seemed very confident in Di Renjie.
However, 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.
They rubbed their feet in the basin and stepped on the edge of the basin.
Seeing this, Hu Jinghui stood up and took the towel on the wooden shelf.
He wanted 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 Yuan Ji? I feel that you seem to be very against him!”
"I won't hide it from you, sir!" Facing Di Renjie's gaze, Hu Jinghui said lightly,"
"I don't think much of a descendant of a noble family like Yuan Ji.
However, Yuan Ji wasn't an ordinary profligate son.”
"This general has also fought on the battlefield. I can feel it.
This person had definitely experienced war! I go to Juyong Pass to watch the defense,
His ability to command the army and his ability to govern the army cannot be underestimated!”
Hu Jinghui had a bad feeling from the first time he looked at Yuan Ji.
Although he was wary of him, his evaluation of him was not low.
He disdained to belittle Yuan Ji, especially in front of Di Renjie.
