Chapter 36 [27 Linyi Chenxiang]
After this eventful night, when Di Renjie returned to his residence from Yuchi's real gold bedroom, the clapper on the third watch had already been knocked for a long time.
Di Renjie pushed the wooden door lightly, and then quickly entered the room.Unexpectedly, he stood still, only a cold light flashed in the unlit room, a sword was already placed on his neck, and the sword energy penetrated into his neck.
Both the enemy and us in the room did not move. After a long silence, Di Renjie spoke first: "Is it the wronged soul captured by my gossip mirror?"
The sharp sword around his neck didn't move a single bit, but the sword-wielder took out an object half the size of a palm from his lapel and threw it to Di Renjie, then said: "Take back your scrap metal!"
Di Renjie laughed and said, "It's not a loss-making deal to get such a good jade like you by throwing a piece of rotten iron."
"Slick tongue and thick face."
"Your Excellency's familiarity with foreign classics really impresses Di."
After Di Renjie finished speaking, the two of them fell into silence again. It wasn't until the blade on Di Renjie's neck pressed into his flesh again that they asked in a deep voice, "How do you know?"
Di Renjie secretly backed away from the deadly sword, and said, "Chen Xiang." The two words were thrown on the ground, but there was no response for a long time.
"Tr?mH??ng (Agarwood)..." the visitor murmured in a low voice, and suddenly put the sword back into its sheath.
Di Renjie sweated secretly, stepped aside and said: "The visitor is a guest, not to mention an honored guest like Your Excellency, why not allow Di to have some thin tea and then sit down and talk in detail?"
The man walked a few steps forward in the dark, snorted coldly: "Put away your official words. Since you are capable of finding Chen Xiang, I guess you already know the whole story."
"I don't know if your Excellency knew about the investigation by Di, and I don't know if it was by Di if you knew it. I don't dare to jump to conclusions, so as not to be ridiculous. If your Excellency is willing to say, Di is willing to hear the details."
"Joke, I'm not related to you, and I don't need to explain the reason to you."
Di Renjie said again: "Then Di is even more puzzled. Why didn't you kill Di for a hundred years? Now you come to Dali Temple with the gossip that Di put down?"
The visitor was silent for a moment, and then said: "I came tonight to inquire about someone."
Di Renjie smiled and said, "Are you an enemy or a friend?"
"I am neither enemy nor friend. But I know the past, and I would like to exchange what I know for yours."
Di Renjie narrowed his eyes slightly, and quickly asked, "Do you know who Fang Jian colluded with to steal the tribute?"
"I don't know who it is, I just know it's not a small background."
"People from the Ministry of Rites?"
"I don't know, that scumbag will have a strange whereabouts one day a month, and it is difficult for others to track."
Di Renjie paused, and asked again: "Who are you? What is your relationship with the main envoy of the Suzaku case?"
"No comment." The visitor was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Di Renjie, you have too many questions. It's my turn to say a few words, right?"
"Di is impolite, please tell me, Your Excellency."
"I want you to help me find out about Cui Qianpei."
"Market envoy?" Di Renjie had a thought, and said, "Why investigate him?"
"Don't ask too much, if you ask you to check it, you can check it."
"I am an official in the Tang court, so you and I can check it if we want?"
The man snorted coldly and said, "Don't say I didn't remind you, bartering is now the upper hand for me. If you do what I want, I have plenty of ways to keep you from finding me. When the time comes If there is no case, your status in Dali Temple will be difficult to protect."
"Presumptuous! Brave thief, dare to threaten my imperial court official?!" Suddenly there was a curse, and the two wooden doors were blown open by a gust of wind, and a shadow flashed in from the darkness. Unstoppable.
Yuchi Zhenjin made a move to capture, the move was to capture the unexpected guest alive.Unexpectedly, he has first-rate skills in avoiding, neither attacking nor hurting people with back arrows.
Di Renjie never expected that Yuchi Zhenjin would come in suddenly, let alone how much Yuchi heard outside.If the time hadn't come, he would have already taken this person down.But at this time it is the most inappropriate to rush to catch the net, one can only calm down and wait for the big fish to take the bait, and the uninvited guest tonight is the fishing stick, this stick cannot be broken by Yuchi Zhenjin!
"My lord!" Di Renjie saw the right moment, and rushed forward to fight Yuchi Zhenjin for a few strokes, and the uninvited guest took advantage of the opportunity to slip away, his legs and feet were astonishingly nimble.
Yuchi Zhenjin saw that the fat duck in his hand flew away like this, and wished to punch Di Renjie a few times to vent his anger.But even if Di Renjie was willing to let him punch his fist to vent his anger, it would not help. After all, the one who ran away could not be chased back, and now he could only search for something from Di Renjie.Yuchi Zhenjin clenched his fists to calm himself down, and then took out a torch from his arms and placed it between them.
The flickering fire illuminated Di Renjie's sad face, and let Di Renjie see Yuchi Zhenjin who was full of anger.
"Di! Ren! Jie!" Yuchi Zhenjin said angrily, "How many things are you hiding from me?"
Di Renjie looked away calmly and said: "Don't worry, my lord. I wanted to tell my lord about this matter, but when I rushed to find you, the city would be in such a mess, so I have no chance to tell my lord."
"A bunch of excuses!" Yuchi Zhenjin took a few steps away, lit the candlestick in Di Renjie's room and took it in his hand before walking in front of Di Renjie again, "Since you don't want to speak, I will force you to speak. It's not about timing." Isn't it right? Now the timing is just right, it is better to hit the sun than to choose the day, you will go back to the room with me now, and I will definitely listen to you in detail."
When Di Renjie heard this, he couldn't help frowning: "Your Excellency was injured just now, and needs rest."
"In the face of a great disaster, a small injury is nothing to worry about." After Yuchi Zhenjin finished speaking, he turned around and walked out. I will go back to my room. Tonight you, Di Renjie, will know everything you want to say. If you are tired, you can rest at my place. I won’t believe it, and I won’t be able to pry your mouth open!"
Yuchi let out a cold snort and walked away.
"Is it because I am not cautious enough, or is it because your kung fu is too high?" Di Renjie sighed, "I didn't want you to get involved, but you are in this position, you really can't help yourself!" After speaking, he shook his head and sighed It's all about worry and self-blame.But it was futile to think about it any more, so he closed the door and hurried away following Yuchi Zhenjin's footsteps.
