Hearing this, Li Yuangui lowered his head and thought for a few seconds before nodding and saying: "Okay, go and invite him personally. After all, he is also the governor of Shangzhou, not to mention that we still need help from him.
My father's guess: If he really just wanted to pass by and didn't want to get involved, he probably wouldn't have taken the initiative to announce his home address. Maybe, his intention may also be related to our future events.
This person has a high reputation among the people. If we can get him to completely join forces, it will be very beneficial to us. "
Li Xu also agreed with these words. Then he followed the instructions, straightened his appearance, went out, and went to invite Di Ying back in person.
"I wonder why you are here, Huaijie?"
After Li Yuangui saw the person, he sat at the table, put one hand on the table beside him, and asked casually.
Di Ying cupped her hands to see the ceremony, then put one hand on her belly and the other on her back.
He stood there and smiled and replied: "I came from Huazhou. I wanted to go to Tongzhou to pick up a friend, and happened to pass by Xiangzhou. I missed Sutou, so I chose to stay temporarily in a ruined temple beside the road. . Unexpectedly, I met the guards of the palace.
To be able to meet the prince once is a humble job and a blessing. "
When Li Yuangui heard what Di Ying said, his eyes flashed.
Yuzhou, Huazhou, Xiangzhou, Tongzhou...
They are all the people and places where they are plotting something big this time.
Is this just a coincidence?
Or is Di Ying using this method to hint that he is really ready to earn the merit of being a dragon?
If it is true, that would be a great thing.
Di Ying had more prestige and status among the people than them.
Li Yuangui decided to seize this opportunity.
He stood up, smiled a little cordially, and raised his hand to give up his seat to Di Ying. "Huaijie, I have heard of you a long time ago, but I have never had the chance to meet you in person. Today is really a coincidence. Come on, come on, please sit down and drink a cup of hot tea and slow down your steps."
Di Ying did not sit down.
He still smiled and said a few polite words, then went straight to the topic.
"I heard that something happened on the mountain, so the servants of the prince's palace were searching everywhere. I wonder... is there any humble job that can serve the prince?"
Li Yuangui's expression darkened slightly.
Seeing that Di Ying's attitude was neither close nor distant, neither far nor close, he felt a little unhappy. Thinking that the other party is being shameless.
but……
Considering that the matter is serious and it is the first time for both parties to meet, the other party will be a little cautious and worried, which is what the question should mean.
The unhappiness disappeared, but the smile on his face disappeared.
He sat back on the chair, raised his hand, and motioned to Li Xu to help Di Ying clear up his doubts.
Li Xu is also a prince. Prince of Jiangdu County.
On the surface, he looked kind and gentle, but his attitude towards Di Ying was also polite.
Seeing his father's gesture, he politely told Di Ying the whole story.
After hearing this, Di Ying's face showed surprise.
"No wonder it's like facing a formidable enemy. It's really a big deal. If King Xujun invited Beizhi here, he must also have the intention of handing over the case to Beizhi for investigation. If that's true, then we won't gossip. Duoxu, shall we start now?”
When Li Xu heard this, he thought in his heart: Di Ying is as stubborn and forthright as the rumors in the court.
So he stopped being polite and after asking Di Ying for all the requirements he needed to investigate the case, he started making arrangements.
That is to say: arrange an empty guest house that can interrogate people, and two manpower that can cooperate with Di Ying's investigation.
The first is that it would be easier for someone from the palace to come forward; the second is to keep an eye on Di Ying's investigation process.
Li Xu himself followed Di Ying.
Firstly, he was curious about how Di Ying got his reputation as an expert in solving cases, and secondly, he wanted to take the opportunity to observe Di Ying more and see if the other person's feet were on his side.
Di Ying didn't care whether he followed or not.
Taking his own people and Luo'er with him, he went to the fruit forest in the back mountain.
While walking, Luo'er asked Luo'er to describe in detail the whole process from the time he came out of the house to Li Yuze's accident.
When Luo'er talked about going to the mountain stream to drink water, Di Ying asked particularly carefully.
Luo'er said: "In this fruit forest, the slaves often bring the eldest young master to play. The princess has an old headache, and she always gets headaches when she hears any noise.
And the eldest young master is used to being noisy. The princess dotes on the eldest young master and takes him with her whenever she goes out.
Therefore, when the princess has a headache, the slave will take the young master to hide somewhere else to play. It was the same when I came to this temple to offer incense.
So after the slave put the eldest young master in the fruit forest, he went to the mountain stream to drink water. It's just that it's not that easy to drink clean water over there, and you have to walk up the mountain stream.
The slave is a servant and is used to being rough. He can drink the water from this mountain stream. But the eldest young master can't. Even taking him close to the water is not possible.
Just because the mansion once..."
When Luo'er said this, she quickly covered her mouth.
Di Ying looked at Li Xu strangely.
Li Xu's face also flashed a look of pain under the torch.
But he was quite calm. Seeing Di Ying looking over, he replied: "When my son was one year old, he fell into the water and died."
When Di Ying heard this, his face showed surprise.
Then he regretfully cupped his hands at Li Xu and said, "It's because of my humble position that I was rude."
"No problem."
Li Xu shook his head gently, "Three years have passed. I just never thought that only three years have passed, and Yuze... still asks Master Di to do his best."
Di Ying nodded and replied: "Of course."
Then let Luo'er continue talking.
Luo'er knew that she had said the wrong thing before, so when she replied again, she was even more careful and cautious.
"Today, when we were at the foot of the mountain, the eldest young master started crying. Even when the princess was taking a nap after offering incense, she still had a headache.
The servant then took the eldest young master into the orchard. Only a few steps into the room, the eldest young master started crying again for some unknown reason.
No matter how much the servant coaxed him, he could not be coaxed. The servant was worried about disturbing the princess again, so she carried the young master on her back and walked deep into the orchard. He didn't stop until he couldn't even see the shadow of the guest house.
But the distance is farther than before. Because it was early spring, there was no scenery to enjoy in the fruit forest, but it was still clearly visible.
The slave was careless. Go to a higher mountain stream to drink water. When he came back, the young master was missing. He hurried back to report.
It's just that when I came, I walked around randomly, and when I came back, I followed the temple tip. When I came back... I was really scared and panicked, and I couldn't find the way back...
The princess endured a headache and ran around for a while...it wasn't until the princess asked people to spread around to look for her that she found...
This is it. Only then did I find the eldest young master behind this big rock.
It’s just...the eldest young master has already..."
