On the trail southwest of Juyong Pass, more than ten official horsemen escorted Di Renjie and marched towards the mountain, led by Yuan Hui.

Riding on the horse, without bothering his old legs, Di Renjie was obviously much more relaxed, and looked at Yuan Hui beside him: "General Yuan, you don't have to be like this, the old man can be guarded by Jinghui!" ”

Hearing this, Yuan Hui smiled: "My lord is now the governor of Youzhou, promoted to the military and political affairs of Youzhou, and bears the trust of His Majesty the Emperor, and his safety is more important than Mount Tai." If you don't know your identity, you will have to keep you safe! ”

"Moreover, the undercurrent in Youzhou is surging, and safety cannot be relaxed. In the end, you will have to be escorted to Jixian County to rest assured. Yuan Hui said solemnly.

Seeing Yuan Hui's "sincerity" performance, Di Renjie didn't say much.

Hu Jinghui rode his horse and followed closely by Di Renjie's side, his expression was serious, his face was full of vigilance, and he didn't know what he was guarding against. Yuan Hui noticed it, but felt a little funny, the sword spirit of the snake spirit, the killer pit viper, an important role in the rebels in Youzhou, this loyal and brave attitude, it was not pretended.

"The last general has a question in his mind?"

"Are you trying to ask, why don't I go directly to Jicheng, but instead go to this mountain......" Di Renjie looked at Yuan Hui.

"My lord is really as wise as a torch......," Yuan Hui arched.

Lick Master Di at the right time to show your admiration. Yuan Hui is not embarrassed, but after thinking about it, he will not evolve to the "licking spirit" Zeng Tai......

Naturally, he wouldn't notice what Yuan Hui was thinking, and Di Renjie couldn't help but think of the figure of "Li Er", the middle-aged man with a highly poisonous body, giving him a very strange feeling. His instincts told him not to miss out!

"I don't know if Dayou boiled it according to the medicine to stabilize his condition and relieve his poisonous disease?" Whisper.

Hearing Di Renjie's muttering, Yuan Hui looked puzzled, but in his heart he immediately thought of the fallen Khan, and sure enough, that "Li Er" was really saved by Di Renjie.

He could guess that Di Fatpang turned to the mountain village, most likely for this person, or those villagers. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart at the treatment of the "protagonist", and easily met the key person in this case......

Xiaolianzi Village, a dilapidated village in the mountains, has broken its tranquility again. Yuan Hui was the first time to visit this village, and he looked at the scene in the village, and it was as poor as other villages.

"Something is wrong?" Descending from the hill, at the entrance of the village, Di Ren said prominently.

"What's wrong, sir?" Hu Jinghui asked.

After a few glances at the village, Di Renjie explained: "Do you remember that when we first came to the village the day before yesterday, there were a few old people at the entrance of this village to enjoy the cool weather, and now, there is no popularity around?" ”

"Is something wrong?"

"Let's go! Go to Dayoujia! Di Renjie's face was slightly gloomy, urging the horses to go first.

At this time, at the home of Lu Dayou, a villager where Di and Hu were staying, a lot of people gathered, and most of the few old and weak women and children in the village arrived.

More than a dozen high-headed officials and horsemen appeared, and suddenly there was a wave of shock, and all the villagers looked at Di Renjie and his party in fear.

"Looks like something happened!"

Dismounted and walked into the small courtyard, Di Renjie looked at an old man. The man's body shook and shrank back. Di Renjie couldn't help but say gently: "Old man, don't be afraid, it's me!" ”

After widening his old eyes and looking at Di Renjie for a while, the old man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It turned out to be an old gentleman!" ”

"What's going on? What about it? Pointing to the villagers gathered at Lu Dayou's house, Di Renjie asked.

Hearing this, the old man sighed heavily: "Before noon, a team of officers and soldiers broke into the village, saying that they were harboring rebellion, they were thieves, and they should be killed!" If you didn't accept it, you were beaten up and arrested! ”

"Pity his sister, who was insulted by those officers and soldiers, also committed suicide...... O iniquity! He was very sympathetic, and looked at Yuanhui's cavalry.

Knowing the reason, Di Renjie shouted: "Kill!" ”

Di Fat was furious, that was to "change the color of heaven and earth", hearing his angry reprimand, the old man who answered was startled, staggered back two steps, and collapsed to the ground.

With a cold face, Di Renjie went to Lu Dayou's house and looked at it, it was a mess, the footsteps were messy, and a lot of altars and jars were broken. Hu Jinghui and Yuan Hui followed the door one after another, but neither spoke.

Di Renjie stared at a female corpse lying on the ground, shabby and disheveled, her hair was messy, and there was an extremely obvious bruise mark on her neck, which was hanged, her expression was slightly hideous, and she must have experienced abnormal pain before she died.

Yuan Hui looked at this woman, she looked quite ordinary, not very old, dressed simply, with rough skin, a woman from a poor family. Thinking that he died of the humiliation of officers and soldiers, he still felt a sense of kinship in his heart.

Although when he was fighting, he also committed adultery and plunder, but after all, it was external......

Di Renjie stared at the female corpse, and couldn't help but be stunned, he felt very uncomfortable. Early yesterday morning, this is still a hard-working and simple village girl, cooking for them, and returning again one day, but this is difficult.

"My lord......" Seeing Di Renjie's expression, Hu Jinghui's face was also a little ugly, and he called softly.

Without speaking, Di Renjie turned around and walked towards the West House, glancing at Hu Jinghui, and Yuan Hui hurriedly followed.

Lifting the gray curtain, the scene in the small space of the West House is in full view, the patient who was supposed to be lying on the earthen bed is gone, a bowl has fallen from the bed, and there is a little medicine residue left in the bowl, and on the side, there is a broken medicine jar.

It can be surmised that when the official army broke in, Lu Dayou was feeding medicine to that person.

Turning around and leaving the house, in the small courtyard, the villagers who watched the excitement stood quietly and timidly, and they didn't dare to take a breath of the atmosphere. Seeing this scene, Di Renjie felt a trace of sadness in his heart, the officers and soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty were supposed to protect the land and protect the people, but now, the people are afraid of the jackals......

Di Renjie went straight to the old man and asked, "How long have those officers and soldiers been gone?" ”

"Back to the old man, it's been almost an hour!" The old man replied by feeling.

Sighing, Di Renjie took out a few taels of silver from his arms and handed them to the old man: "Trouble the old man and the villagers, just restrain the poor dead girl......

"The great family has suffered, and this is as it should be! But we can't take this money! Glancing at the money in Di Renjie's hand, the old man lingered a few times and shook his head again and again.

"Take it!" Di Renjie didn't care, and forced the silver money to the old man.

Taking a deep breath, Di Renjie waved his hand: "Let's go!" ”

When he was discharged from the hospital, he stepped on the stirrup saddle very quickly, this fat old man, it is rare for his movements to be so neat...... Yuan Hui did not hesitate, beckoned his subordinates, and followed.

Looking at Di Renjie's back, Yuan Hui could feel that Di Gong at this time must be full of anger.

"Senior Brother..... Yun Gu also followed, and couldn't help but whisper.

"Keep up!" Yuan Hui shook his head, raised his horsewhip, urged the war horse, and followed Di Ren's outstanding village.

The mountain roads are difficult to navigate, and even if you ride a horse, you can't go fast.

"My lord, are we going to the state city now?" Finally found a road that could accommodate two horses in parallel, Hu Jinghui asked.

Controlling the horses, Di Renjie nodded, his expression had returned to normal, and he seemed to be thinking about something.

"Are you still thinking about a big change in your family?"

"There are two brothers and sisters, but they are just the most ordinary people in the mountains, why do the officers and soldiers directly break into the village to take people?" Di Renjie said lightly: "Harboring rebellion, who is rebellious?" ”

"You're talking about, the poisoned man?" Hu Jinghui frowned and said.

"Officers and soldiers, it's obvious that they went to that person, and there are many brothers and sisters who just suffered from the disaster of the pond fish!" Di Renjie sighed: "The identity of the poisoned person is not simple!" ”
