Uncle Detective Di Renjie, I build a crime-solving team

Chapter 115 The Reason Why Di Renjie Went South

Li Cunxi, who wanted to eat with chopsticks in hand, put down his chopsticks after noticing this gaze.

Di Renjie smiled and asked, "Cunxi, what do you think?"

Li Cunxi said unnaturally, "I remember that before my uncle left, the Youzhou case had been over for several days, and the ministers in the court all thought that Your Majesty was old and should return the country to the Li family. My nominal superior, the censor Li Zhaode, wrote a letter, and Your Majesty found a reason to execute him."

“Well, Cunxi knew about this matter and the true situation. He must have been to the Prince of Wei’s mansion, right?”

"Uncle, that's true. After I heard that the highest official of the Censorate, the third-rank Imperial Censor Li Zhaode, was executed by His Majesty, I went to the teacher's house to ask the reason."

Li Cunxi rubbed his temple.

He didn't take this plot seriously at first, until he went to the Prince of Wei's mansion, when he suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem.

It should be noted that the execution of Li Zhaode, the Imperial Censor, had a considerable impact.

This is equivalent to killing the chicken to scare the monkey.

The monkeys to be warned were naturally the staunch defenders of the Li Tang Dynasty headed by Zhang Jianzhi.

Although Di Renjie also hoped that Wu Zetian would remain in the Li Tang royal family, Crown Prince Li Xian was too weak and incompetent. Not to mention comparing him with Wei Wang Wu Chengsi, he was far behind even Liang Wang Wu Sansi.

Therefore, Di Renjie absolutely could not jump out and write a letter to embarrass Wu Zetian.

Therefore, Di Renjie was transferred from the capital to tour the country in the south.

This not only confused Di Renjie, but also prevented the civil and military officials in the court from asking Di Renjie to write a petition together, and left the affairs of Huzhou to Di Renjie.

After all, when he was touring the south, Di Renjie would definitely stop in various prefectures and counties. If he found any clues in Huzhou at that time, he might be able to help Huzhou's internal security eliminate the hidden dangers.

Killing two birds with one stone is a kind of achievement.

After pretending to think, Li Cunxi sighed and said:

"Uncle, His Majesty has transferred you to the south for your life and property... If Lord Zhang really asks you to join him in the petition, I'm afraid you'll be caught in the middle and be in a difficult position."

Although Li Cunxi knew the current situation in Huzhou County, he could not tell Di Renjie directly.

I had no choice but to follow Di Renjie's train of thought.

As expected, Di Renjie applauded repeatedly.

"What Cunxi said is basically consistent with what I thought. It seems that Cunxi is not much worse than me."

"Great, great, Cunxi is also a talent for being a prime minister. In the future, Your Majesty will still be the crown prince. After we pass away, Cunxi will be the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty."

"That's a good idea, it will become clear soon!"

Di Renjie looked really excited and actually picked up the wine glass.

"Uncle, thank you for the compliment."

Li Cunxi quickly stood up and brought the wine glass.

"Master Cunxi is really modest. When I was in the Turkic Empire with you and Jili Khan, Jili Khan often said that if you were willing to join the Turkic Empire, he would be willing to become your sworn brother, appoint you as the state teacher, treat you as a distinguished guest, and let his son recognize you as his second father."

Li Yuanfang stood up and said while teasing.

Li Cunxi was puzzled and asked, "My uncle told me about these things before, such as brothers with different surnames and imperial masters. What is father this time?"

"He is his second father." said Li Yuanfang.

Li Cunxi was a little speechless. If he remembered correctly, the son of Jili Khan seemed to be a generation older than him.

If he became the second father of that filial son, he would probably die in the tent the next day.

"Fortunately, I didn't go to the Turks. People in my Great Zhou are more popular. I offer a toast to my uncle."

"Come on, come on."

"I offer a toast to you, young master. Although he is young, he is very capable. You are truly a man from heaven!"

After everyone finished their drinks, they sat down to eat again.

Li Cunxi saw that the time was right, so he said, "Since my uncle has come to Huzhou, we should take a good rest. As for whether the emperor will be angry with the prince because of the minister's petition, we can no longer control it."

"Yes, we have come to Huzhou, so let's wait and see what happens." Di Renjie said helplessly, "Eat, eat, this Huzhou is a nice place with outstanding people and beautiful scenery. The young master Liu I met today is very handsome, humble and polite. I like him very much."

Speaking of Liu Chuanlin, Li Cunxi immediately became interested, picked up a piece of meat and put it in the bowl, saying:

"Uncle, Brother Yuan Fang, I saw that when the new bride of Liujiazhuang came to the house, Mr. Liu made a big fuss. I think there must be a story in the Liu Mansion. I wonder if uncle noticed a very interesting detail today?"

Di Renjie quickly reviewed what happened today in his mind and asked with a smile:

"But Liu Da, the steward of the Liu Mansion, scolded the master of Liujiazhuang in front of us?"

Li Yuanfang said unhappily:

"That old man is really unreasonable. We congratulated him with good intentions and just visited his garden, but he scolded us instead. It's really infuriating! It's normal for him to be scolded by the housekeeper, and he deserves it!"

……

Inside Liujiazhuang.

The moon star is thin, and the black dragonfly flies south.

Liu Chuanlin, who had just met his ex-wife and current stepmother, returned to his room.

After picking up the teacup and taking a sip of tea, he stood there and began to ponder.

After a long time, he put down the teacup in his hand, leaned against the small table above the couch, and began to recall everything that had happened in the past week.

After putting all the fragments of memory together in his mind, he showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

"Father, father, it's fine that you remarried. I never opposed you. But the person you remarried was actually your daughter-in-law. I didn't want to believe it."

"The next step should be that my beloved wife will whisper in your ear and ask you to drive me out of Liujiazhuang, right? But His Highness Li Gui is still imprisoned there, I have to find a way to save him..."

"Well, well, father, we are father and son, but you force me to do this kind of thing. Then I can only be a filial son and a good grandson."

"Come on, you're going to ask me to go hiking, right?"

He sat on the couch and began counting down in his mind.

Before he finished counting to twenty, the butler Liu Da came in from outside and said to Liu Chuanlin:

"Sir, the master asked me to invite you over."

Liu Chuanlin smiled and asked, "Father, don't you know that a night of love is worth a thousand gold? Instead, you called me to come at this critical moment. Do you know what you are talking about?"

"Sir, I don't know. Please follow me."

"Okay, let's go over there and see what my father called me to do."

At this moment, the candlelight in the room flickered, illuminating half of Liu Chuanlin's face.

Half of his face was covered with a smile, while the other half that was not illuminated seemed covered with frost.

Liu Da thought he had seen it wrong, so he rubbed his eyes and looked again.

Liu Chuanlin walked out of the house with a smile on his face, without a trace of coldness.

"I was mistaken, sir, please."
