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

The night ends and the day dawns.

Li Cunxi turned over and got up. Having not slept well the night before, he quickly put on his clothes, stretched his muscles, and walked out of the room.

Ma Rong and Qiao Tai had already gotten up and were practicing boxing in the yard.

Lu Dayou, who was sitting next to the stone table, was holding a book in his hand, reading the contents eagerly.

"You guys got up really early." Li Cunxi said, brushing away the loose hair on his forehead.

"We villagers just want to get up early." Lu Dayou put down the book and said with a smile.

"Sir, please sit down for a moment. After we finish practicing this set of boxing, we will go buy you some snacks."

Ma Rong and Qiao Tai performed a set of punches with great vigor and finished the training quickly.

Qiao Tai packed up and went out to buy some snacks.

Li Cunxi washed up and sat sideways at the stone table.

Huzhou in late autumn was still the same as usual, but Jiangzhou became more lively because of the emperor's arrival.

The emperor's headquarters was in the central area of ​​Huzhou. The only extra after-dinner activity in this not-so-big city after the emperor's arrival was to run to the north gate to see him off and kowtow to him for half an hour.

After resting in Huzhou for only one day, Wu Zetian followed Wu Chengsi's advice and decided to return to Chang'an.

The court is not calm as water now, but is actually turbulent in secret.

Although Wu Sansi and Zhang Jianzhi were in charge of the court, Wu Sansi was an expert at forming cliques, and the handling of government affairs still depended on Zhang Jianzhi and others.

If he was away from Chang'an for too long and no one warned Wu Sansi against doing anything, that idiot might start a fight with Zhang Jianzhi, and who knows what chaos the court would be in.

In addition, Wu Zetian brought with her the Qianniu Guards and the commander-in-chief of the Internal Guards on this trip. All the people in the court who can intimidate the crown prince and all the officials are here. Who knows, those scions loyal to Li Tang might do something unspeakable.

After weighing the pros and cons, Wu Zetian decided to return to Beijing immediately.

The news soon reached the headquarters of the deposed envoy. Di Renjie brought Li Cunxi, Li Yuanfang and others to the north gate of Huzhou to see Wu Zetian off to return to the court.

The ceremonial guard and the escort guards protected the dragon chariot and the King of Wei's luxurious carriage and left here smoothly.

Xiao Qingfang led the internal security team to go ahead and take protective measures on all sides.

In less than half an hour, the strongest force of the defense team, consisting of Snake Spirit leader Xiao Qingfang, Snake Spirit First Hall Master Huan Bin, and Sword Spirit Hu Jinghui, the third of the six Snake Spirit leaders, escorted the emperor away.

Li Cunxi knelt on the ground, racking his brains but still couldn't figure it out. If the emperor and Wu Chengsi returned to Chang'an smoothly, then this snake spirit would be a Ninja Turtle per capita.

With this kind of lineup, it would be easy to kill Wu Zetian and Wu Chengsi.

"Cunxi, let's go back to the camp."

Di Renjie had already stood up and said to Li Cunxi.

"Oh, okay uncle, let's go back now."

Li Cunxi came back to his senses, responded with a few words, stood up, straightened his clothes, and followed Di Renjie back.

Li Yuanfang, Inspector General of the Yingyang Guard, and Zeng Tai, Magistrate of Huzhou County, followed behind.

With the emperor's departure, many more stalls appeared at the north gate of Huzhou. Tea stalls, pastry shops and other stores were open to welcome customers.

The few of them passed by a pastry shop. Li Cunxi looked up and saw pastries that he was familiar with, as well as others that he had never seen before.

Retracting his gaze, Li Cunxi whispered:

"Watch your mouth, Li Zezhou. The dream is sweet. What will you do if you eat more?"

It was time for breakfast. Li Cunxi stroked his stomach and felt a little hungry.

Di Renjie, who was walking in front, seemed to be hungry as well, so he took a few people into a restaurant.

After finding a private room and sitting down, Di Renjie signaled Zeng Tai to start ordering food.

As the local official and local tyrant, and the only internal guard under Xu Shide who had not been purged, Zeng Tai felt much better after the emperor left.

He was in an unusually relaxed mood, and at the suggestion of his mentor, he ordered nine restaurant specialties in a row.

"Hey, Zeng Tai, you ordered too much."

"Teacher, this meal today is my honor to you. Since I became your disciple, I have never given you a penny. I am really ashamed. This meal today is my small token of respect. I hope you enjoy it."

"Okay, okay, then I won't be polite, Zeng Tai." Di Renjie suddenly changed the subject and asked, "But, Zeng Tai, don't you think this case is too bizarre?"

"Master, what do you mean? Isn't the Liujiazhuang matter settled?" Zeng Tai became puzzled.

"Closed? Of course not." Di Renjie smiled, "We still have many problems that have not been solved. The so-called closed case is just because the mastermind behind it has died."

Li Cunxi, who was sipping tea, was like an old monk in meditation, motionless.

The expression on his face did not change at all, as if he didn't care about these things at all and they had nothing to do with him.

Di Renjie noticed Li Cunxi from the corner of his eye, but he did not look away. Instead, he continued to narrate calmly:

"First of all, there are still several doubts in this case."

"First, about Liu Chali's death, Yingyu told me that Liu Chali died after she cut his throat with a knife. Before that, Liu Chali and Liu Chuanlin went mountain climbing and fell down the mountain and died."

"According to what Master Liu Chuanlin said about the place where he fell off the cliff, I also checked it carefully once. That place is definitely not where you can fall down by slipping, because it is extremely wide."

"Then, Master Liu Chuanlin gave me a letter."

Di Renjie took out an envelope from his arms.

He placed the envelope on the table and flicked his finger, letting the envelope slide in front of Li Cunxi.

"Cunxi, do you want to guess what this letter says?"

Faced with Di Renjie's repeated test, Li Cunxi just raised his eyebrows, opened the envelope and took out the letter inside.

Di Renjie had obviously read this letter, and it was the one that Li Cunxi asked Ma Rong to give to Liu Chuanlin before the Huzhou case.

However, all of this was within Li Cunxi's plan, which was to make it impossible for Di Renjie to confirm the murderer in his mind.

Spreading out the letter, Li Cunxi raised his eyebrows and read:

"Brother Chuan Lin, I have admired you for a long time. You are a man of great talent and knowledge. However, you have an ambiguous relationship with Yingyu, the prostitute your father married to. Your father is not a wise man. If he knew that you and Yingyu were husband and wife, he would definitely make up his mind to kill you. Facing the cruelty of his biological father, you are kind-hearted and will never fight with him..."

Li Cunxi read out the above content without hesitation.

Because no specific name was read out, everyone felt the news brought by the letter from Liu Chuanlin's perspective.

From the mysterious man revealing that Liu Chali and his son Liu Chuanlin slept with the same brothel girl, to the inference that Liu Chali was murdering Liu Chuanlin, and even guessing that Liu Chali would push Liu Chuanlin off the mountain while climbing.

In the end, Liu Chuanlin deliberately dodged after learning the truth, and Liu Chali fell off the cliff!

Everything is under the reasoning of this mysterious man.
