Li Shimin faked his death? Then I will be powerful enough to conquer the world!

In Di Renjie's quiet residence in Wannian County, sunlight shines through the gaps between branches and leaves, casting fine shadows.

Li Yuanfang busily shuttled between the rooms, carefully packing up the necessary items one by one. Then, carrying the large and small bags, he came to Di Renjie, bowed respectfully, and said, "Brother Di, everything is packed. We can set off now!"

Di Renjie stood there with a calm expression.

He nodded slightly, his eyes slowly falling on Li Yuanfang. After a moment's silence, he said, "Yuanfang, there's something I've been wondering about for a long time, and I want to clarify it with you today."

When Li Yuanfang heard this, his body stiffened slightly and the movement of his hands unconsciously stopped.

He raised his head and met Di Renjie's all-seeing gaze. After a brief hesitation, he said calmly, "Brother Di, please tell me whatever you want. I will tell you the truth."

"Yeah." Di Renjie responded softly, his expression still as calm as water, but there was a hint of doubt in his tone.

"Yuan Fang, I just want to know, who are you serving?"

Li Yuanfang knew that from the moment he approached Di Renjie, his not-so-clever disguise would be exposed sooner or later.

His superiors didn't care about it and just asked him to do his job well.

However, he didn't expect Di Renjie to notice something unusual so quickly.

However, he quickly regained his composure, a simple smile appeared on his face, he scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and said, "Brother Di, I actually had a premonition that you would see through me."

He lowered his head slightly and continued with a sincere look in his eyes.

"Brother Di, don't worry. I, Li Yuanfang, will serve Your Majesty wholeheartedly. I have received Your Majesty's grace and am the recipient of your salary. I shall be loyal to you."

"Besides that, I really don't know anything!"

Di Renjie stared at Li Yuanfang's eyes, as if judging the truth of his words.

After a while, Di Renjie's tense expression gradually relaxed. He seemed to have put down a heavy burden in his heart. He breathed a sigh of relief, nodded in relief, and said, "If that's the case, then it couldn't be better."

"Yuan Fang, from now on, you can rest assured and stay by my side! Since you are devoted to His Majesty, I trust you."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanfang immediately showed a happy smile on his face.

During this period of time, he followed Di Renjie to work, and sincerely admired Di Renjie's wisdom and character, and deep in his heart he also longed to continue to stay by his side.

Hearing Di Renjie say this, he was deeply moved, his eyes slightly red, and he quickly said: "Brother Di, thank you for your trust!"

……

Time flies, and the three-day journey passed in a flash. Di Renjie and his party finally arrived in Luoyang.

Although Luoyang at this time was not as prosperous as Chang'an, the city was also a picture of a bustling city.

In recent years, the series of institutional reforms implemented by the imperial court have achieved remarkable results. The entire Tang Dynasty has shown a good trend of vigorous development, and the lives of the people have become increasingly stable.

Zhang Xuanwei, a street urchin, heard that they were coming to Luoyang, so he naturally didn't want to be left behind and joined in the fun with everyone.

After the carriage carrying Di Renjie and others slowly drove into Luoyang City, they were stopped by a group of efficient Jinyiwei.

These Jinyiwei said nothing, but led the carriage to a remote and quiet house on the outskirts of the city.

In the carriage, Di Renjie, Wu Meiniang, Li Yuanfang, Lin Yu, Zhang Xuanwei and others all had solemn expressions and remained silent all the way.

The Jinyiwei also had expressionless faces and just carried out the orders from their superiors.

After bringing everyone to the house, they turned around and left quickly and silently, as if they had never appeared.

The people in the carriage waited quietly for a while, and after confirming that there was no movement outside, they carefully got off the carriage one by one.

The house was empty, silent and quiet, with not a single person in sight.

Only the breeze blew gently, blowing the leaves on the branches, making a rustling sound, adding a bit of eerie and strange atmosphere.

Zhang Xuanwei still looked calm and composed, with his hands leisurely behind his back, walking forward, his eyes looking around curiously.

Li Yuanfang and Lin Yu followed Di Renjie and Wu Meiniang closely, constantly scanning the surrounding environment to prevent any emergencies.

"Huh, if someone invited us here, how come we can't even see the owner? What's going on?"

Wu Meiniang broke the silence first and asked.

Di Renjie raised the corner of his mouth slightly, curled his lips, and said softly: "Sister Wu, our status and position are not enough for the host to come out and greet us personally."

"Forget it, let's go. I believe the owner is waiting for us inside. Let's go in and pay our respects to this mysterious owner and see what he is up to."

Wu Meiniang nodded slightly to show her agreement.

So, several people walked cautiously together towards the depths of the house.

In the main hall of the house, a man in a black robe sat quietly on a chair in the middle of the hall, leisurely crossing his legs, holding a newly published novel in his hand, reading it with relish.

He wore a mask carved with a sickle, which covered his features completely, making it impossible to see his true appearance. One could only see his deep eyes through the narrow holes in the mask.

It was not until he heard the sound of footsteps and voices outside that he slowly put down the book in his hand and placed it on the table beside him. Then he slowly raised his head and stared quietly outside the door, waiting for this meeting that had been planned long ago.
