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

Chapter 98: The brave Ma Rong and Long Feng return to Taiyuan

Long Feng came to Youzhou, and Ma Rong came back early in the morning the day after Li Qingxia was killed.

The case is already very clear.

The people who were killed in the cave of Li Qingxia and Xiaolianzi Mountain were definitely the work of Ma Rong and Long Feng.

"Are you the legendary leader of the Nineteen Thieves in Baihelin?" Li Cunxi asked with a frown.

"It was me. It was also me who gathered those people, intercepted the officials and family members of the Lizhou governor in Baihelin, and killed more than 1200 people. I kept it secret and dared not tell anyone because I was afraid that the young master would not dare to accept me." Ma Rong said frankly.

"Then why do you dare to speak now?"

"My Lord has been very kind to me, and I did not get your consent for this action, so if you ask, I will not hide anything."

"Why should you do this? She is my cousin. I have already made an agreement with her. I have to save her." Li Cunxi pretended to be displeased.

Ma Rong lowered his eyes and talked about what Long Feng heard in the house where Li Qingxia was hiding in Youzhou City that night.

In particular, Ma Rong repeated Li Qingxia's insults to Li Cunxi.

As for Li Qingxia's idea of ​​affecting the entire body by just one move, not a single word was left out.

Even the scene where the enemy was at the gates of the city and forced Hu Jinghui to help was told without any deletions or changes.

Li Cunxi took a deep breath and finally could only comment:

"My cousin is giving up her life and actually seeking the illusory position of female emperor. I am speechless. She has killed many people and made the people of Youzhou live in misery. I chose to save her, which was the most righteous thing. But she actually pretended to agree and then tried to rebel and establish herself. She really brought this upon herself and deserves to die!"

Li Cunxi sighed and asked:

"However, why are you and Long Feng so bold that you dare to face hundreds of people with just the strength of the two of you?"

"It's just the terrain advantage. If we were in an open area, we would never dare to do this. The narrow terrain is in our favor." Ma Rong explained.

"Well, well, no matter who you mention this to in the future, you must grit your teeth and say that you don't know who the thieves in Baihelin are, and you are not a thief in Baihelin. Do you understand?"

"Thank you for not killing me, sir. I understand. I won't tell anyone who asks me!"

"Okay, we'll go to Taiyuan tomorrow. You tell Long Feng that we'll see you in Taiyuan City."

"Yes, son!"

Soon, a figure walked out from the shadows outside the Governor's Mansion.

He walked slowly on the bluestone road, his body swaying with his eyes closed, a sarcastic expression on his face.

"Amazing, awesome, really awesome."

……

Three days later, outside Taiyuan city!

This is a city with a long history.

It also has another name, Bingzhou!

However, Taiyuan is Bingzhou, but Bingzhou is not entirely Taiyuan.

There is also a Jinyang County in a county not far away, which will be incorporated into Taiyuan in later generations.

However, the county remains the economic center of Bingzhou to this day.

Taiyuan County, as the political center, has many powerful families, but its economic development is not as good as that over there.

In other words, there are too many powerful families, which leads to the economy here being far inferior to that of the neighboring Jinyang County.

Returning to this county with special significance, Li Cunxi couldn't help but sigh:

"When I was a refugee, my uncle saved me and sent me to Taiyuan to be raised for seven years. This is my hometown!"

"Then you can be considered to be going home." said Hu Jinghui.

The two men rode tall horses side by side, and the magistrate of Taiyuan County was in front, leading the horse for Hu Jinghui.

"Master Zhou, you are a fifth-rank official. Wouldn't it be a disgrace to you to lead the stirrups with me?"

While enjoying the inexplicable pleasure brought by the county magistrate leading the horse, Hu Jinghui lowered his head and asked the county magistrate.

It was not easy for this county magistrate to become the county magistrate of Taiyuan County. County magistrates in such special areas are all officials of the fifth rank or above. There are many opportunities for them to curry favor with their superiors, so they would curry favor with anyone they see.

It's not an exaggeration to say that it's a dog.

"It is my honor to hold the stirrups for your Excellency. I wonder if this young man needs me to hold his horse as well?" County Magistrate Zhou looked at Li Cunxi with a shy smile.

"No need for that. I can't bear such kindness from the county magistrate." Li Cunxi laughed awkwardly and refused.

"Except for Jinyang County, all the county magistrates in Taiyuan Prefecture are of the sixth rank. It is not easy for you, County Magistrate Zhou, to climb to such a position. I'm afraid you must have accepted a lot of bribes on a daily basis, right?" Hu Jinghui suddenly asked.

"I dare not, I dare not!" County Magistrate Zhou's expression tensed and he ran to the side, knelt down and kowtowed.

"What is this, Magistrate Zhou? I was just asking casually. If you didn't accept bribes, then you didn't accept them. It has nothing to do with me."

Hu Jinghui raised his head and laughed, then waved his whip.

"drive!"

There was naturally laughter and joy along the way.

However, the closer they got to Di Mansion, the less smile appeared on Li Cunxi's face.

Just as he was about to arrive, Li Cunxi's smile completely disappeared.

"What's wrong, Cunxi?" Hu Jinghui asked with concern.

"This is a problem I have to deal with... not a small problem."

Li Cunxi pursed his lips and rode his horse forward.

As soon as I turned the corner, I saw the entrance of the Di Mansion, which was bustling with people.

Di Renxian and several housekeepers of the Di Mansion were waiting here. Di Chun, who had returned to the Di Mansion in advance to notify, also showed an honest smile.

County Magistrate Zhou led the way, holding the horse under Hu Jinghui's crotch, and finally arrived at the gate of Di's mansion.

Li Cunxi turned over and dismounted, avoiding someone's heated gaze, bowed to Di Renxian, and said:

"Uncle, I'm back."

Di Renxian smiled with relief: "It's good that you came back alive, without any broken arms or legs. Well, today I will hold a welcoming banquet for you. Now that you are home, you can eat, drink and sleep as usual. There won't be so many rules anymore."

"Uncle, this is General Hu, the commander of the Qianniu Guards."

"I, a humble commoner, pay my respects to General Hu." There was a difference between officials and civilians, so Di Renxian bowed immediately.

"Mr. Di, you don't have to be so polite. Mr. Di treats me like a son, and I regard Mr. Di as a father. Mr. Di is also my uncle. How can an uncle bow to his nephew?"

Hu Jinghui supported Di Renxian, and his eyes then fell on a woman who was watching.

With his keen sense, he naturally discovered that the woman was only 28 years old and her eyes had never left Li Cunxi from the beginning.

It is often heard that Li Cunxi had a childhood sweetheart in Taiyuan, a daughter of the Wang family.

But looking at this girl's luxurious clothes and unusual temperament, she doesn't look like a girl from an ordinary family.

"It seems that this is the young lady of Wang family in Taiyuan." Hu Jinghui thought to himself, and also wanted to watch the show.

It is naturally impossible for a woman from one of the Five Surnames and Seven Noble Families to become a concubine of someone, especially a vagrant like Li Cunxi.

Not to mention, Li Cunxi still has Xiaomei's jade pendant hanging around his neck. Judging from Li Cunxi's usual behavior, he would naturally not let Xiaomei be his concubine.

So……

The show is about to begin!

Hu Jinghui's gossip soul is burning!

There were quite a few people watching this scene secretly!

Li Cunxi finally turned to the woman and said with difficulty: "Long time no see, Miss Wang."
