"Sir, you can tell us now.
Why did he abandon Gan Liang and go to Youzhou?”
Find an inn in the city and settle down.
Li Yuan Fang no longer suppressed the curiosity in her heart.
"After all, we're investigating the diplomatic mission case.
However, it went in the opposite direction to Youzhou thousands of miles away!”
"This general and Yuan Fang have been thinking hard for a long time, but still can't understand?”
At the side, Hu Jinghui also looked confused.
The curiosity in his eyes was not fake.
Ever since he followed Di Renjie to Beidu and Youzhou in secret,
He knew that Di Renjie was suspicious of Youzhou.
He sighed at his keen observation skills and was very curious.
Where did they go wrong for Di Renjie to find the right place?
"The mysterious killers in Jiangzhang County who forged the imperial edict.
They all had Youzhou accents.
There was also Liu Jin, the mysterious rebel who was rescued from the earthen kiln and brought out of Chang 'an.
He was also captured in Youzhou. All of this seemed to be related to Youzhou Province!”
Di Renjie explained simply.
" Sir, this…" Li Yuan Fang said.
He attracted Di Renjie's attention and was stared at by Fatty Di.
"Isn't this too far-fetched…"
"That's right!" Di Renjie didn't blame Yuan Fang for the "doubt" in her tone.
"The previous judgment was not very convincing.
However, I've been solving cases for many years, and I've developed an intuition that there's something wrong with Youzhou.
I can guarantee that even if we go to Gan Liang's location, we won't be able to find anything.
People like Viper, an organization with connections to the world…
After such a long time, there won't be any flaws left for us!”
When Di Renjie mentioned Viper,
Hu Jinghui's heart skipped a beat.
"It has been quite some time since the incident of the diplomatic mission.
Seeing that the two countries were about to fight. Once the war started, the people would be plunged into misery.
The Great Zhou had finally been stable for two years after the emperor ascended the throne.
The country is gradually recovering. There was the threat of Tubo in the west. If the situation was bad and a war broke out, the Great Zhou would still be at a disadvantage!”
"With the power of the country, I can only come to Youzhou Province to take a gamble!”
Di Renjie's tone was firm, and his eyes shone with divine light.
"But after I arrived at Youzhou, I was certain that my judgment was correct!
Here, we will have unexpected gains!”
After listening to Di Renjie's explanation, Li Yuanfang was still a little stunned.
He exchanged glances with Hu Jinghui.
However, he was influenced by Fatty Di's confidence and immediately cupped his fists."
"I will definitely do my best to assist you in solving this case!”
Hu Jinghui didn't know what to think.
He seemed to have the ability of ghosts and gods, and his actions were really unpredictable…
Seeing this, Di Renjie chuckled.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Li and Hu immediately became alert. It was the waiter in the inn who brought water.
"Let me ask you, what happened in Youzhou?
Why is the security so tight?" Di Renjie asked the waiter with a smile.
He looked at Di Renjie in confusion and explained,"
"Last night, the villagers of Great Willow Village rioted.
They broke through the prison at the North Gate and took away more than ten prisoners who were imprisoned by the Provincial Governor!”
"Do you know why?" Di Renjie was surprised.”
"Why else? The government forced him!" The waiter looked sympathetic."
"Esteemed guest, do you see those old and weak people tied up at the north gate?
The young and strong villagers had all fled into the mountains and forests, and the government troops could not chase them in time.
He could only vent his anger on these old and weak people. The yamen had already issued an announcement.
If the villagers did not surrender, they would kill all the elderly and women!”
"Preposterous!" Di Renjie said angrily.
The waiter was shaking his head when he saw Di Renjie's expression. His expression changed drastically and he said with a sad face,"
"Esteemed guest, this lowly one has spoken too much!
Don't spread it out. Otherwise, I can't bear the crime of criticizing the government!”
Seeing the waiter's terrified face, Di Renjie immediately comforted him gently,"
"Don't worry, these words are from your mouth and into my ears.”
As he spoke, he gave Li Yuan Fang a look. Yuan Fang understood.
He took out a dozen copper coins from his waist and handed them to the waiter.
"Take it, this is a gift from Mister!"
With a happy expression, the waiter bowed respectfully and left the room, closing the door behind him.
"It seems that under Fang Qian's rule, the people of Youzhou have become more and more powerful.
Life isn't good!" After a long time, Di Renjie sighed heavily.
"Sir, we are here for the diplomatic mission.
Let's put it aside for now!" Seeing Di Renjie's anger,
Hu Jinghui could not help but open his mouth to persuade,"
"The rioters attacked the city and hijacked the state prison. They are rebelling and should be executed.
The Provincial Governor of Youzhou Province might be too ruthless, but it's understandable…"
Hearing this, Di Renjie's eyes were like lightning as he looked at Hu Jinghui very seriously."
"The people's livelihood is more important than Mount Tai.
Even a Jianghu ranger would not stand by and watch, let alone now that I am the Governor of Youzhou.”
"Have you ever considered why the villagers would gather to riot?
If ordinary people could farm steadily, why would they risk their lives to do such a rebellious act?
And the government's punishment was so cruel. One had to know that tyranny was fiercer than a tiger!”
Hu Jinghui knew that he had misspoken and immediately cupped his hands to apologize,"
"Jinghui is ignorant, please forgive me!"
"Forget it! You are in the army and guard the king, not in the court.
It's not your fault that you can't understand the truth.
Tomorrow, let's go to the surrounding villages.
Youzhou is so important to the Upper Province. How has Fang Qian governed Youzhou?”
"Yes, sir!"
In the quiet of the night, in the guest room.
Di Renjie was sleeping soundly. Suddenly, a black shadow flashed past.
It was the fugitive "Li Er" lying on the floor.
He looked around and then shifted his gaze to Di Renjie, who was lying on the couch.
He let out a sigh of relief and crept closer to Di Renjie.
Just as he was about to stretch out his hand, he saw Li Yuanfang and Hu Jinghui break the window and enter.
Li Er's expression changed. He immediately wanted to dodge, but his path was blocked by the two of them.
Li Yuanfang unsheathed her chain knife and slashed at Li Er.
Li Er's martial arts skills were obviously not low.
However, he was definitely not a match for either Li or Hu.
Not to mention the joint attack of two experts.
In just a few breaths, he was in danger.
Seeing that he was about to be struck by Li Yuanfang, Di Renjie, who had woken up, suddenly said,"
"Yuan Fang, spare her!"
Li Yuanfang tilted her blade, wanting to capture him alive.
Taking advantage of this fleeting opportunity, Li Er tried his best.
His entire body was knocked out of the window, and he deftly climbed over the wall, disappearing into the darkness.
