Chapter 52 Zhou You, what do you think?
After entering the city, Zhou Youcai even bowed his hands to Hu Jinghui and apologized: "General Hu, I have offended you so much just now, don't blame me, don't blame me!"
"Hey, it's okay. This call of 'Brother Tiger' is very affectionate. From now on, just call me Brother Tiger," Hu Jinghui waved his hand and said with a smile.
Di Renjie, who was walking in front, also pointed not far away and said with a smile: "There is a tea shed over there. Come on, let's go there and have a rest!"
In the tea shed, after the four people sat down, they looked at Hu Jinghui. Li Yuanfang couldn't help but laugh again. The laughter made Hu Jinghui feel a little dazed, and he subconsciously looked at himself: "What's wrong?"
"Haha, Brother Tiger, he is laughing at you!" Zhou You also laughed, and Li Yuanfang then laughed and said: "General Tiger is truly the leader of the Royal Guard, and he is so majestic as a general."
Di Renjie also said to Hu Jinghui: "You, this is not the capital, and you are not the general of Qianniu Guard. You are just the son of a doctor. Why are you staring so hard and so powerful? How can you let me lose everything?" A few taels of silver."
"Haha, sir, General Tiger is much more majestic than you, the imperial envoy," Li Yuanfang also said with a smile.
"Yuanfang! Shhh..." Upon hearing this, Di Renjie made a silent gesture to Li Yuanfang, and Zhou You also looked at the tea shed sitting with his back to them. Hearing Li Yuanfang mention the words "Imperial Envoy", he suddenly raised his eyebrows. The man started, but then hurriedly lowered his head, then smiled at Hu Jinghui and said, "Brother Hu is probably used to staying in the capital, and he really can't adapt to being an ordinary person for a while!"
Hu Jinghui also shook his head and smiled: "I was also very angry for a while!"
"Don't forget, I am not an imperial envoy, and you are not a general. We are just ordinary civilians now," Di Renjie even reminded.
After some joking, Di Renjie took a tea break and said: "Zhou You, Yuan Fang, Jing Hui, I think we should find an inn to stay first!"
As he spoke, Di Renjie suddenly noticed a few people hanging not far away. Among them was an old man who shouted for water. However, a soldier guarding beside him not only poured a bowl of water on the ground in front of the old man, but also Hu Jinghui couldn't help but cursed "bastard" after slapping the old man.
Di Renjie was so angry that he slammed the table, but considering that he came to Youzhou to investigate the case secretly, it was hard for them to take care of these things.
However, when leaving, Zhou You frowned and glanced at the old man who was being hung up by the officers and soldiers. However, Zhou You noticed that the man who was sitting outside the tea shed with his back to them and wearing a bamboo hat quietly followed them.
"The Jili Khan of the Turks? Now that we know Di Renjie's identity as an imperial envoy, he will probably come to our door tonight, right?" Zhou You secretly thought.
In the inn, after settling down, Li Yuanfang took a teapot and poured a cup of tea for Di Renjie, Hu Jinghui and Zhou You respectively. He couldn't help but frowned and said: "Sir, I still don't understand why we have to go there. Coming from Youzhou?”
"Zhou You, what do you think?" Di Renjie smiled and then asked Zhou You beside him.
Di Renjie's words made Zhou You slightly stunned, and Hu Jinghui looked at Zhou You in surprise. Li Yuanfang also put down the teapot, turned around and said with a smile: "I also want to hear Brother Zhou's opinion!"
"I can't talk about Gao Jian, but I remember that your Excellency seemed to have said that when we were in Jiangzhang, the fake imperial envoy who delivered the decree had a Youzhou accent, and the person who induced General Li... Yuanfang to go to Jiangzhang was also from Youzhou.
Accent. Also, Liu Jin in the Tuyao was also captured in Youzhou. These seemingly inconspicuous details are all related to Youzhou. I think this is the reason why the adults transferred to Youzhou, right?
Zhou You, who shook his head lightly, said in deep thought, and then asked: "Do you think, sir, that we can find a breakthrough in the case when we go to Youzhou?"
"That's it!" Seeing Di Renjie stroking his beard and nodding with a smile, Li Yuanfang suddenly said with his eyes brightening.
Hu Jinghui was a little puzzled: "Since our destination is Youzhou, why does the imperial decree require us to go to Taiyuan to offer sacrifices?"
Zhou You was speechless. Hu Jinghui was pretending to be a rough guy a little too much, right? If the dignified Qianniu Guards Commander-in-Chief could not even understand this matter, how could the emperor trust his own safety?
What for such a brainless fool?
"Jinghui, don't underestimate our opponents. They have vast hands and eyes, and many ears and eyes. All our actions are under their surveillance. The so-called Taiyuan Sacrifice Sweep is just to divert their attention and catch them off guard.
," Di Renjie explained.
Li Yuanfang on the side couldn't help but asked: "Sir, what should we do now?"
"Zhou You, what do you think?" Di Renjie looked at Zhou You with a smile.
"Sir, I just followed you here to join in the fun, what can I say? How to investigate the case requires your presence!" Zhou Youyou shook his head and smiled, and continued: "However, today we are all together
When we entered the city, we encountered some strange things!"
A strange thing? Hu Jinghui and Li Yuanfang were a little surprised and confused after hearing this. Passengers were strictly checked at the city gate. It shouldn't be considered a strange thing, right?
"Tell me about it!" Di Renjie looked at Zhou Youlian with interest and said with a smile.
Zhou You also continued: "First of all, the sergeants strictly checked the passers-by, indicating that something must have happened in Youzhou City. Sir, do you still remember those people hanging in the city gate? If they are some gangsters, there is one among them.
Old man, what kind of heinous person could such an old man be? Isn’t it a bit strange to hang some old, weak, women and children in public?”
Hu Jinghui and Li Yuanfang nodded subconsciously. Just when Di Renjie was about to speak with a smile on his face, there was a knock on the door. Zhou You couldn't help but smile and said, "Here comes the person who can solve our doubts."
"Come in!" Li Yuanfang shouted, and the waiter outside the door also pushed the door in with a basin of hot water: "Gentlemen, you have been working hard on the journey, wash your faces and boil your feet to relieve your fatigue!"
After Li Yuanfang came forward to take the water and put it on the basin stand, Di Renjie said to the waiter: "Waiter, there's something I want to ask you. What happened in this city? I need to be on guard.
So strict?"
"Why, sir, haven't you heard?" The waiter seemed a little surprised, while Zhou You said angrily: "We have just entered the city, if we knew, do we still need to ask you? You waiter, ask you
To put it bluntly, why are you still asking us?"
Di Renjie smiled and waved his hand to Zhou You. The waiter also smiled awkwardly and said, "Gentlemen, it's like this. Last night, the rioters in Daliushu Village broke into the prison and robbed more than a dozen death row prisoners."
Upon hearing what the waiter said, Hu Jinghui and Li Yuanfang both looked surprised, while Zhou You raised his brows slightly with amusement on his face.
"When I entered the city just now, I saw many old people and women tied up on the execution platform at the north gate. What was going on?" Di Renjie then asked.
"Hey, don't mention it! After the mob broke into the prison, they all fled into the mountains. The officers and soldiers didn't catch any of them. The governor was so angry that he arrested all the old people and women in Daliushu Village who couldn't run away and tied them up.
Go to the execution platform and put up a notice saying that if these mobs don't surrender within three days, these old people and women will be killed!" the waiter sighed.
When Di Renjie heard this, he slapped the table angrily: "This is really unreasonable!"
"How can this be the governor of a state? Acting like this, kidnapping people for blackmail and threatening them, is simply a reckless way of doing things!" Zhou You also sneered. If you like movies and TV shows, please save them: (https://www.bajiewx.com) Movies and TV
