Chapter 2: Return (7)

As soon as Mr. Du's words fell, Li Tianran immediately took the case, and said angrily: "It's just nonsense, can Ah Langan do such a thing?" To say something that shouldn't be said, like Yang Zhao, he does a lot of evil on weekdays, if Ah Lang has the heart to deal with it, and kills him at most with his temperament, how can he slaughter him! ”

After hearing this, Mr. Du hurriedly waved his hand to signal him to whisper. Li Tianran also felt that he was a little out of shape at this point, and hurriedly sat back in his seat, and continued: "Mr. Du, this matter is definitely not Ah Lang's doing, last night, Ah Lang was drunk, and my brother and I stayed outside Ah Lang's door all night, Ah Lang did not leave an inch, we can testify!" ”

Mr. Du shook his head lightly and sighed, "Don't I know what Brother Taibai is like?" I don't need you two to prove it, I also believe it, but... Will the right minister above the court believe it? This case is handed over to Dali Temple for trial, which must be more than lucky! ”

At this moment, Li Boyu on the side suddenly clutched his chest and coughed, and Li Tianran hurriedly asked with concern: "Brother, is the injury just now not healed?" ”

Li Boyu breathed a sigh of relief and replied softly: "It's okay, but I didn't expect this guy to be so powerful, and he could beat me like this with one move." ”

After hearing this, Mr. Du hurriedly looked at Li Boyu and asked, "Mingyue slave, you are also injured?" Who did it? ”

Li Boyu glanced at Mr. Du and replied, "I don't know, it's just... A master. ”

Seeing this, Li Tianran hurriedly took over the words, and roughly told him what happened to him, and when he talked about the white shadow that suddenly broke in, Li Tianran hurriedly turned his head to Li Boyu, and asked: "Brother, I was in a hurry just now, I forgot to ask, have you ever seen that person's face?" ”

Li Boyu tried to recall for a moment, then shook his head and replied, "That person... Wearing a very strange mask, even the hair is tightly wrapped, I... I didn't see it clearly, and the man's speed was strange, and he quickly turned around and left after a blow... ”

"Strange masks?" Mr. Du couldn't help but mutter.

Li Boyu nodded and replied, "That mask is indeed weird, it's all white, and there is nothing, except that there are two small round holes left in the eyes above the mask. ”

Mr. Du gasped unconsciously, and said slowly: "It is indeed not an idle person to be able to injure you in an instant, so in your opinion, how does this person's martial arts compare with Brother Taibai?" ”

Li Boyu lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then replied: "Don't hide it from Mr. Du, I have never seen Ah Lang really do it before, ordinary people compete with Ah Lang, generally no more than two or three rounds have been defeated, until today Ah Lang and that... General Gao fights, I can see his true strength, but... Judging from the situation between the two of them and the man who hit me today... It seems that martial arts are even higher than Ah Lang! ”

"What!!" Mr. Du was shocked, the teacup in his hand almost fell to the ground, he took a deep breath, tried to calm his emotions, and slowed down for a while, before he said again: "There are still people in this world whose martial arts are above Ru Ah Lang, that... Who could it be? In the event that this person is either friend or foe, then ... But how is it good? ”

When Mr. Du asked, Li Boyu didn't know how to answer, and Li Tianran answered: "I am also present today, in my opinion, that person's goal does not seem to be aimed at us, just to save the little beggar, otherwise with his skills, killing my two brothers should be... It's not hard! ”

"Hope... So be it! Mr. Du sighed helplessly, he glanced at Li Tianran, and continued to speak: "You said that the little beggar caused you to get into the prison car, and finally saved you with a trick, so you can only see it, why is this?" ”

Li Tianran thought for a moment, and then replied: "The specific junior is not clear, but the goal of that little beggar should be clear, that is, to steal the treasure on Yang De's mansion, but at present, we don't know what the treasure is." As for saving me, it should be that I let her go before and felt pity. ”

Mr. Du stroked his beard and did not reply again, probably agreeing with Li Tianran's judgment. Li Tianran saw that Mr. Du did not answer, so he took the lead in speaking: "Mr. Du, I am also guilty now, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to clear up my grievances before the real murderer is caught, so I want you to do a favor, I don't know if I will agree?" ”

Mr. Du looked at Li Tianran and replied affirmatively: "But it doesn't hurt to say it, as long as Du can do it, there is no ambiguity!" ”

After Li Tianran was affirmed, he replied: "I want to go to Yang Zhao's mansion to investigate the case of the slaughter of Manmen and clear up the grievances of my father!" ”

"This... I'm afraid it's a bit tricky! Mr. Du couldn't help but look embarrassed.

Li Tianran suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly said: "This is the only way to clear Ah Lang's grievances, and I hope Mr. Du will help!" ”

Mr. Du shook his head lightly and responded: "The little nephew misunderstood, it's not that Du is unwilling to help, it's just that this Dali Temple is under the jurisdiction of the right minister, and besides, you are also guilty, how can you easily enter the investigation of the case?" Unless... ”

"Unless what?" Li Tianran asked anxiously.

"Unless there is the will of a saint or ... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is willing to come forward to deal with this matter, otherwise it should be almost impossible! Mr. Du replied.

"Saints? Prince? Li Tianran was suddenly deflated, what a high-ranking figure this is, he is a little bad person, let alone begging him to deal with it, even the two of them have never had a chance to see each other! Li Tianran immediately slowly sat back in his seat, looking depressed.

Mr. Du pondered for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly turned to Li Boyu and Li Tianran and said, "There is one person, maybe you can give it a try!" ”

Li Tianran suddenly felt hopeful when he heard the words, so he said in unison with his brother: "Who is it?" Please Mr. Du speak quickly! ”

"Wait for Zhao Hanlin, Li Yu, a subordinate official of the East Palace!" Mr. Du said affirmatively.

"Li Mi?" Li Tianran couldn't help but look dazed, and continued to ask: "He... Would you like to help? This matter is aimed at the right minister! ”

Mr. Du stroked his beard and responded: "If Du's expectations are good, he will definitely help!" This person has been smart since he was a child, full of poetry and books, Brother Taibai is the spiritual leader of the Tang Dynasty, all erudite people have admiration for Brother Taibai, I expect that he will not be an exception. Besides, Li Mi is jealous and hateful, and he has long been suspicious of the right minister, so he should not let it go! ”

"But... Can he convince the prince alone? This is His Majesty's will, will His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be willing to mediate this matter? Li Tianran still asked with some hesitation.

Mr. Du nodded lightly and replied confidently: "Don't worry, little nephew, this matter should not be wrong!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely calculate the pros and cons, killing Brother Taibai on the right is to be the enemy of the world's scholars, and if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saves Brother Taibai, he will be with the world's scholars, when this big position is fighting, even if we don't ask the prince, in order to recruit the world's scholars, he will definitely take action! ”

Mr. Du's words made Li Tianranmao suddenly, he is proficient in criminal investigations, but when it comes to politics, he does have some shortcomings, after Mr. Du's little touch, he has the bottom in his chest, but after thinking about it, he can't help but look embarrassed: "Mr. Du, but... This Li Mi, the little nephew has never known it! ”

Mr. Du smiled lightly and responded: "Don't worry, little nephew, Du still has some friendship with him in poetry and writing, so I will repair a letter and ask him to help in this matter!" With that, Mr. Du picked up the pen and paper on the desk and began to revise the book.

A moment later, the letter was finished, and Mr. Du handed it over to Li Boyu, entrusting: "It is inconvenient for you to come forward, this matter can only be handed over to you, it is urgent, remember that this letter must be presented to Master Li Mi in person, and must not be entrusted to others!" ”

Li Boyu carefully put away the letter, answered, and got up and pushed the door out of the cottage!

A moment later, Li Boyu followed the route explained by Mr. Du and came to the door of Li Yu's mansion.

The door of the Li Mansion was closed, and Li Boyu was about to step forward and knock on the door, but as soon as he walked to the door, it happened that a small blue-gray sedan chair stopped in front of the door of the mansion behind him, and the curtain was lifted, and a person about thirty years old and handsome appeared from the sedan chair. When he saw Li Boyu, he couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately asked, "Who are you?" What is the matter with going to Wu Li's house? ”

Li Boyu looked at Li Mi carefully, and his appearance was indeed not bad as Mr. Du's description, so he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to Li Mi and replied, "Dare to ask Your Excellency, but it is Li... Secretion-sama? ”

Li Yu also looked at Li Boyu, and then replied: "It's down here, what's the matter with you?" ”

When Li Boyu saw that the person who came was Li Mi, he immediately knelt on his knees and replied: "Master Li, the grass people are entrusted by Mr. Du, and they have something to ask for!" ”

Li Boyu's kneeling caught Li Yu off guard, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Dare to ask which Mr. Du it is?" ”

"Du... Fu, Du... Mr! Li Boyu replied.

Li Mi was taken aback and muttered, "Mr. Du Fu? Who are you? ”

"I am Li Boyu, my father Li Bai, entrusted by Mr. Du Fu, to find Lord Li Mi, this is Mr. Du's letter." As he spoke, he carefully took out the letter from his bosom and handed it over.

Li Mi hurriedly stretched out his hand to take the letter, opened it and read it. After reading, Li Mi hurriedly picked up Li Boyu in front of him, and said softly: "I have learned that you should quickly return to Mr. Du and inform Mr. Du that he should do his best to help in this matter!" ”

After hearing this, Li Boyu's eyes immediately became hot, and he wanted to kneel on the ground again, and read in his mouth: "Grass people, thank you, Lord Li Yu!" ”

Seeing this, Li Yu hurriedly stretched out his hand and grabbed Li Boyu, and said softly: "There are many people here, you leave quickly, just wait for my news." After that, he returned to the blue-gray sedan chair and whispered to the arrogant outside: "Let's go, go to the East Palace!" ”

Although the voice was small, Li Boyu could hear it clearly, and immediately had some bottom in his heart, seeing Xiao Jiao slowly walking away, he was a little relieved, and turned around to return to Mr. Du's thatched cottage.
