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

After leaving Taiji Palace and parting with Di Renjie, Li Cunxi got into the carriage anxiously.

In the carriage of the Prince of Wei in front, the driver Lao Hei drove the carriage towards the Prince of Wei's palace, and Li Cunxi's carriage followed behind.

The Chinese New Year is coming, and every household has pasted up the Chinese character "喜" (happiness) and couplets, and big red lanterns are hung high. Several intellectuals are still writing Spring Festival couplets on the stalls. The festive atmosphere of the Chinese New Year is everywhere, and children are jumping around in new clothes, stepping into the snow and rolling in it.

Even though the residents of the capital Chang'an were not rich, they were still much wealthier than the same type of residents in other regions. Li Cunxi lifted the curtain and looked outside, but saw that everyone coming and going had a smile on their face.

"The New Year atmosphere is still so strong." Li Cunxi couldn't help but sigh.

The flavor of the New Year in later generations is incredibly bland. Since firecrackers were banned in most areas, it was rare to hear the sound of firecrackers in Li Cunxi's hometown. During the New Year, no household watched the Spring Festival Gala. The family simply sat in front of the table and played cards.

What Li Cunxi remembered most clearly in later generations was offering incense to his ancestors. This activity also existed in this era, but Li Cunxi was no longer alive. He had no father or mother. His only relative, Li Wenzhong, now called Kui Wenzhong, was still hiding in Dayang Mountain.

He didn't have a house, and didn't have time to build a ancestral hall to commemorate his deceased parents and elders who had passed away long ago, and now no one cared about them.

After wandering in the sky all the way, the carriage finally stopped steadily outside the Prince of Wei's palace.

Qiao Tai lifted the curtain of the carriage and said, "Sir, we have arrived at the Prince of Wei's mansion."

Li Cunxi came back to his senses, uttered an "oh", and was helped down by Qiao Tai.

The front and facade of the Prince of Wei's mansion have been greatly changed. At a glance, it is filled with red light, with big red wedding characters, big red lanterns and big red couplets lined up. The servants, slaves, maids, guests, guards and even the old doorman who come in and out are all wearing new clothes, and everyone has a happy face.

Wu Chengsi and Wu Yanhao got off the carriage and took Li Cunxi into the Prince of Wei's Mansion. Qiao Tai was also welcomed in by the doorman to have some wine to warm himself up.

Arriving at the main hall, Li Cunxi bowed to Wu Chengye, Prince of Changshan, whom he had met before, and then sat down as Wu Chengsi instructed.

"Did you know about the matter of Xue Aocao and Xue Nanze in advance?" Wu Chengsi asked straight to the point.

"I don't know... I just know he is not dead." Li Cunxi said.

"Your Majesty wants to summon Huaiyi to the palace to serve him day and night. He was the one who took the initiative to tell Your Majesty that Xue Aocao was not dead." Wu Chengsi frowned, "I'm afraid it's not a good thing for Huaiyi to enter the palace."

"Master, do you want to get rid of him as soon as possible?"

"That's right. This person will definitely come to the palace to defile the court. Your Majesty, please listen to him..."

As a female emperor, Wu Zetian was very easy to be influenced by.

According to the original history, the deaths of Li Chongrun and his sister and brother-in-law were caused by Wu Zetian listening to Zhang Yizhi's nonsense, which turned a deaf ear to her, so she decided to beat the three of them to death with sticks.

If it is said that Wu Zetian was credulous, Li Cunxi definitely believed it, and Huaiyi was indeed not a good person.

This guy has done a lot of evil things. Last year, when a woman went to the White Horse Temple to burn incense, he secretly took the woman into his side yard and locked her up in the underground palace. He originally wanted to wait until the woman's family was quiet and then enjoy her slowly, but the woman later hit her head and died. Until her death, Huaiyi never succeeded.

If you want to know why Li Cunxi knew about this, it must be because he had sent Ma Rong and Qiao Tai to monitor it.

"Master, rest assured. Cunxi will definitely get rid of this villain. But there is one thing I have to say. You have to find a way to get Huaiyi back to his White Horse Temple." Li Cunxi said confidently.

"Do you really have a plan?" Wu Chengsi frowned slightly, then relaxed his brows in an instant. "Okay, you are a thoughtful person. I am confident that you have a plan. Within ten days, I will make Huaiyi get out of Chang'an and return to his White Horse Temple."

……

When we returned to Di's house, it was already the end of breakfast time.

But everyone was still waiting for Li Cunxi to come back, so they all sat in the main hall and chatted.

There were five people having dinner together. Besides Di Renjie, Li Yuanfang and Li Cunxi, there were Lu Dayou and Lu Xiaofeng, brother and sister.

After the Youzhou case was over, Lu Xiaofeng had been living in the Di Mansion, being taught etiquette by the old ladies, and he had been learning for several months.

Li Cunxi greeted everyone and sat next to Li Yuanfang.

"Haha, I haven't seen you for a long time. Sister Xiaofeng looks like a lady from a wealthy family."

"You are joking, young master." Lu Xiaofeng covered his face and chuckled.

"Your smile and frown really have that flavor." Di Renjie joked, "Now that you're back, let's have dinner. Today is New Year's Eve. After today, you kids will be one year older."

"My Lord, I am no longer a child." Li Yuanfang laughed and raised his glass, "I offer a toast to you, my Lord."

"My nephew also offers a toast to my uncle."

"Brother and sister, we would also like to offer a toast to you, my Lord."

……

Tiger House.

There were only Hu Jinghui and the housekeeper at the huge dining table. The table was filled with chicken, duck, fish, meat and various vegetables, and there was also a large copper pot in the middle.

The door of the main hall was quickly closed. The butler took off his mustache, turned his back to Hu Jinghui, untied his bra, put on his underwear, and revealed his original appearance.

"Now we can temporarily enjoy this feeling of being together."

"Well, would you like a drink?"

"Of course...Pour me a glass."

"it is good."

The butler took out a jar of green wine, opened the mud seal, and a clear aroma of wine immediately rushed into the butler's nose.

She came to the table with a jar of wine and poured a full bowl of wine for Hu Jinghui, who hadn't drunk for a long time.

Hu Jinghui tore off a piece of roast chicken leg, took a bite, drank a large bowl of wine, and continued to eat the chicken leg.

The butler was sitting next to him, watching him finish his drink, then stood up and refilled his glass.

"You bastard, you only know how to order me around." The butler snorted in dissatisfaction.

"Please sit down and eat. I'm so happy. This is the first time we sit together to have New Year's dinner." Hu Jinghui said, and pulled the butler to sit down with his greasy hands.

The butler sat down, picked up the chopsticks, sat upright, slowly picked up the chopsticks, picked up the meat, put it into his mouth and chewed it slowly.

"Hey, Jinghui, you said that night when Li Cunxi came to give you money... I always feel uneasy. Has he found out?"

The housekeeper suddenly became worried and felt uncomfortable.

"He should have known. His follower, the one called Ma Rong, went straight to Youzhou on the third day. He should have opened the coffin and found it was empty."

"This……"

"What are you afraid of? The body is gone, there is no evidence... Who told them not to check carefully? How could there be a human skin mask on Princess Yiyang's face?"

"What if I meet him in the future?"

"It's okay, whatever happens, you're not Princess Yiyang anymore anyway, so the right thing to do is to give me a son as soon as possible."
