Chapter 177: The Tent General Meets for the First Time

In the Jianghu County Pavilion, a slightly obese old man was reading documents under the lamp. His brow furrowed, as if he had read something incomprehensible.

"The Turkic Peace Mission was killed in the desert of Gannan Province, but Chang'an Zhong ushered in another team of "Peace Missions"......

"The guards of Li Qingxia, the lord of Yiyang, were killed on the street......

"Of the 127 members of the Turkic Peace Mission, only 126 bodies were found, and Li Yuanfang is missing from the convoy......

"Therefore, the imperial court judged him to be the murderer of the Turkic mission, listed him as the No. 1 wanted criminal in Tianzi, and issued a sea arrest document......

"But just the day before yesterday, he appeared in Lingzhou City again, killed a gang of gangsters, and escaped from the encirclement of the people in the official mansion......

"Weird, weird, weird!"

The old man wrote three strange words on the paper in a row, and continued to fall into deep thought, not even realizing that the little servant in the family walked into the room and replaced the tea that had cooled on his table.

It wasn't until he made a slight noise when he left that he woke him up.

"Oh, it's Di Chun."

"Master, you see that I am so short-sighted, and I pick you to come in when you are thinking." Di Chun smiled a little embarrassedly.

This old man is the head of Di Chun's family, and Di Renjie is also. At this time, he received the secret order of the imperial court, and rushed to Chang'an from Pengze County, which had been degraded before, and rested in Jiangjiao County on the way.

In addition to being an excellent prime minister, Di Renjie is also an unborn detective, who does not give up thinking even when he is resting, and it is precisely because of this that Wu Zetian handed over the case to him for investigation.

"No, you're here at the right time." Di Renjie smiled and chatted with Di Chun.

"What would you do if you killed the Turkic Mission?"

"The little ones don't dare to kill the Turkic mission."

"I'm talking about ifs." Di Renjie smiled helplessly.

"That...... Then I'll find a place to hide first, so that the court can't find me." Di Chun thought for a moment and said.

"That's right, generally speaking, people like him who commit a great sin against the heavens often have to hide it in the first place. But he suddenly appeared in Lingzhou, and he was chivalrous and killed a gang of gangsters—let him be treated as chivalrous and righteous."

"Yes, sir, what the hell is going on?" Di Chun thought about it, it seemed to be such a reason.

"Or, it's this Li Yuanfang who is bold and wants to openly provoke the imperial court. Or, what reason does he have to show up in Lingzhou?" Di Renjie said firmly.

"Or on his own initiative, he's going to find someone or something there; Either passively, forced by someone to go there."

Di Chun said with a smile: "The master is really good at laughing, isn't Li Yuanfang the main culprit in this mission murder case, can anyone force him to go to Lingzhou City?"

"Why can't it? Di Chun, Li Yuanfang will definitely not be the main culprit in this case."

"Why is that?"

"If he were the main culprit, he would never have let his name appear on the list, let alone be the only one out of the hundred and twenty-seven. Someone who can do such a big case would not be so stupid."

"This ......"

"Forget it, you go down first. We don't know what the truth of the matter is, but in short."

Seeing Di Chun's bewildered look, Di Renjie was noncommittal, anyway, he just needed an audience to help him clear his mind, and he didn't expect Di Chun to give any useful reasoning.

Di Chun agreed to exit the door and reached out to close the door. Di Renjie pondered, pacing around the room.

In front of the post house, a gust of wind blew, blowing up the fallen leaves on the ground. A black shadow flickered on the wall of the post house, and at the same time, the lights in Di Renjie's house suddenly went out with a "flutter", and the room became pitch black.

Di Renjie looked around, but didn't find anything unusual, so he walked to the door and wanted to go out.

Who knows, behind him, the lamp turned on again, and he turned to look, on the chair in front of the table, it turned out

Out of thin air, there was an extra young man.

「…… Who are you?" Di Renjie was stunned for a moment, and asked without any change in his expression.

"I've long heard that Di Gong's reasoning is like a god, and he can often judge people's identities by his temperament and clothing, and Xiao Ke is just trying to see and understand."

Di Renjie looked at the young man and said, "I think you came to visit at night, you shouldn't know to play this kind of guessing game with me."

The young man said, "I just want to prove whether Di Gong is really that godly, as others say, whether he is a star in the sky or a wasted name."

Di Renjie smiled indifferently: "I have long passed the age of competitiveness, and often some people attach things that they can't understand to ghosts and gods. It's just that what others think of me is nothing but something outside of my body. Besides, whether I, Di Huaiying, have real talent and real learning, I'm afraid it won't be your turn to comment on a word from a young man."

"Still, in order not to waste time, I'm going to try."

The young man smiled and said, "Please."

Di Renjie looked at him and said slowly, "The waist is straight, the legs are slightly parted, and the hands are on the case, which is typical of the sitting posture of a junior officer of the Guard. The complexion is ruddy, the eyes are shining, the body is in good shape, and you are in the best martial arts—I have seen many people with your eyes."

"When you meet me in this way so late at night, you probably don't want to be discovered. Then, an officer, strong in martial arts, able to kill a lot of killers, and mysterious in his whereabouts - I can't think of a second candidate other than Li Yuanfang."

The young man was stunned for a long time before he said, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. Yes, I am Li Yuanfang."

Di Renjie nodded: "When you come to see me in this case, I don't think I'm here to say hello. I ask you, why did you kill the Turkic mission?"

Li Yuanfang said, "This is a long story, but I dare to guarantee that the Turkic mission was not killed by me. I don't know if Di Gong would like to hear what I have to say."

Di Renjie said, "What you say, it's your business. Whether you believe it or not is my business."

Li Yuanfang nodded, and as if Di Renjie had acquiesced to listening to him, he opened his mouth to speak.

"We set out on the 12th, walked for half a month, and arrived in the desert of Gannan Province. Dozens of masked killers flew out of the sand and killed them all in less than a quarter of an hour."

"He was in charge of protecting Shibi Khan from the siege, but he met a man wearing a bronze mask and a black robe, who was holding a black and purple sword with a strange pattern, and took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands before he started - usually those who have this kind of quirk, and their kung fu is not weak."

"The lowly job fought with him, regardless of victory or defeat, but he was separated from the Shibi Khan, and the lowly duty went around in the desert for a few days, and came to the nearby prefectures and counties, but found that he had become the No. 1 wanted criminal in Tianzi, and had no choice but to hide everywhere, but there have been public officials in the court and people in the rivers and lakes who have been chasing and killing."

"Until that day, I was walking in the desert, and I was seriously injured, and I had not eaten water for two days, and I was about to die in the desert. At this moment, a huge golden stone tower suddenly appeared in front of my eyes......
