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

Chapter 64 Li Cunxi: Entering the Governor's Mansion and Killing Di Renjie

Youzhou Governor's Mansion.

Di Renjie and Hu Jinghui were still chatting.

The two of them were already discussing why Zhang Laosi suddenly turned against them in court that day.

Regarding this issue, Hu Jinghui pretended to be a good citizen who knew nothing about it, but Di Renjie no longer cared about it.

It's just that someone threatened them.

As to whether the person who threatened them was Li Yuanfang, that remains to be discussed.

As they were walking, Lu Dayou, who had been taking care of Li Er in the back hall, ran out in a hurry and said anxiously:

"My lord, it's bad, Li Er's poison has taken effect again!"

The three of them hurried to the back hall, only to see Li Er lying on the bed with blood gushing out of all his seven orifices, with no signs of life.

After taking Li Er's pulse, Di Renjie immediately asked the guards to fetch the snow toad given to him by Wu Zetian and let Li Er put it in his mouth for a while.

On the other side, from the Wucheng Bingmasi, Qi Hu, holding the Imperial Sword, brought out Zhang Yong and his two companions with ten Qianniu Guards and a hundred Imperial Guards.

Pan Yue held an iron rod in each hand, stood beside Qi Hu, and escorted Qi Hu majestically.

In secret, Fang Qian's men, who had been keeping an eye on the Wucheng Bingmasi, quickly rode towards the governor's mansion to report the matter to Fang Qian.

In the Governor's Mansion, Di Renjie sat down beside the bed in the back hall.

Looking at Li Er, who had a snow toad in his mouth, silver needles on his body but was still bleeding from all seven orifices, he sighed helplessly.

"Hopeless."

"Although it is an extremely cold substance and has the effect of removing toxins and removing blood stasis, it is not a magical medicine that can bring the dead back to life. This time, even if Li Er is a god, it will be difficult to save him!"

Di Renjie, a smart man, lived in the Governor's Mansion, without Li Cunxi by his side.

Seeing Li Er being poisoned again, he once again identified two suspects in his mind.

The first one is Li Yuanfang; the second one is Lu Dayou!

That’s right, it’s Lu Dayou who takes care of Li Er!

Although this man looks extremely plain, it is not impossible that he is the murderer who caused Li Er to be poisoned!

There is no need to talk about Li Yuanfang, let’s just talk about that night in Daliushu Village.

There is heavy rain outside the window, medicine residue in the bowl, poisonous snake in the house, and Yuan Fang in front of the door!

He took advantage of the opportunity to drug the snake and went out with it!

Not to mention, Zhang Laosi openly overturned the verdict in the court yesterday. Di Renjie would never believe that it was not the work of Li Yuanfang, who had been with them day and night.

However, Di Renjie did not see it, and Hu Jinghui quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

"What on earth is going on? Why did the poison suddenly take effect?" Di Renjie said to himself.

Lu Dayou, who had been taking good care of Li Er, was also puzzled and asked, "Yeah, he was fine in the morning, so why is he bleeding from all seven orifices in the evening?"

Di Renjie glanced at Lu Dayou, sighed, stood up and walked out.

Hu Jinghui followed him out, and seeing that Di Renjie was still worried, he consoled him, "Sir, you have done your best."

"I tried my best." Di Renjie said helplessly, "It's really a bad fate. I don't know who this Li Er is."

As I was walking out, I saw Li Yuanfang walking in with big strides.

As soon as he saw Di Renjie, Li Yuanfang immediately smiled and bowed, saying:

"Sir, the young master has a brilliant plan. Zhao Chuanchen is waiting in the East Flower Hall!"

……

In the Youzhou Governor's Mansion, Li Cunxi was sitting cross-legged on the bed. Qiao Tai was still eating roast chicken with gusto, licking his fingers from time to time.

"It smells so good, sir. If I follow you, I will have meat to eat."

"Be more restrained. I have something else to do later. Remember, when Fang Qian and Wu Yizhi come to look for me, you must leave immediately, go back and take out the things you packed, and wait for me outside the governor's mansion."

"I understand, sir. Although I am stupid, I will never forget what you have told me."

"Idiot, I'm just worried that you might make a mistake in a hurry."

"Yes, son."

As they were talking, there was a sudden noisy sound outside.

Soon, there was a knock on the door.

Fang Qian was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He knocked on the door and asked:

"Sir, can we go in, sir?"

Li Cunxi closed the "Spring and Autumn Annals" in his hand, exhaled, winked at Qiao Tai, and walked down from the bed.

"come in."

Fang Qian and Wu Yizi came in hurriedly, not daring to hesitate, and immediately told Zhao Chuanchen how they had failed to assassinate him and that Zhao Chuanchen had gone to the Youzhou Governor's Mansion with the Qianniu Guards.

Li Cunxi glanced at Qiao Tai calmly and said:

"Go back now. It's not convenient for you to hear what's happening here."

Qiao Tai gathered up the oil paper on the table, wrapped the bones, and quickly left the room.

Li Cunxi also put down the "Spring and Autumn Annals" in his hand and looked at Fang Qian, who was still impatient, with a frown.

"I say, Lord Fang, I'm afraid that what you came to tell me should be far more than just this news, right? At this point, do you still want me to come up with a strategy for you to deal with every matter?"

"I dare not. Sir, there is one more thing. The three guerrilla generals involved in the North Gate incident, Zhang Yong, Hu Jinbao and Fang Hongliang, have all been captured by the Qianniu Guards and taken to the Youzhou Governor's Mansion!"

"I had expected this. That night, you, a fool, acted smartly. I intended to look for you later, but who knew you would act in advance and order those three brainless idiots to pretend to be villagers to rob the execution ground. Not only that, you even left horseshoe prints at the scene and disrupted my plan!" Li Cunxi's voice was cold, as if he was suppressing his anger.

"Master, there is no point in saying these things now. You have to resolve this matter even if you have to beat or scold me, right?" Wu Yizi had no other choice but to pin his hopes on this Master Li.

"Well, you two have no choice but to raise your army in advance. Only by leading your army into the Governor's Mansion and killing Di Renjie will you have a chance of survival."

"Sir, kill Di Renjie? If we really do that, wouldn't it be equivalent to telling the emperor that we are in Youzhou?"

"Do you think the emperor doesn't know? She's just not sure who it is! Otherwise, why didn't she let Di Renjie be the governor of Bingzhou?"

"Young Master, what you said is absolutely right!" Fang Qian no longer had any doubts and was ready to raise an army immediately.

Wu Yizhi, the dog-headed military advisor, quickly grabbed Fang Qian and persuaded him, "Sir, without the order from the higher-ups, we cannot start a war on our own..."

Wu Yizheng swallowed the rest of his words halfway through.

Li Cunxi still looked calm and composed. He opened the "Spring and Autumn Annals" in his hand, turned two pages, and read the content he had not finished reading before.

He found it very strange that at such a life-and-death moment, this young man from the capital's Snake Spirit leader's command could still read so calmly.

It's just too weird.

Li Cunxi turned another page and said calmly, "Master Wu, are you trying to say that if you raise an army without authorization and Jin Mulan blames you, your lives will be in danger?"

"Haha, you don't really think that those three losers can keep from confessing in front of Di Renjie, do you?"

"When Di Renjie sends the eight military leaders to bring the Imperial Sword, I can just leave in style holding the golden token."

"And what will become of you? Who will save you?"
