Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 265
Beicheng is the largest city gate in Shiguo. Turkic people, Khitan people, Han people and other camel horse caravans are constantly flowing, shouts and reprimands are heard intermittently, and various languages ​​intersect here to form a unique set of music.

A team of horses drove slowly through the north gate, all of them were dressed in the clothes of Turkic merchants, with white masks.

The leader opened the mask, it was Di Renjie, and he looked around.

Behind them, Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang urged their horses to approach.

Li Yuanfang said softly: "My lord, this is Jili Khan's West Court—Shi Kingdom."

Di Renjie nodded and said with a smile: "It's such a bustling scene. Although it's not as good as Chang'an and Luoyang, it's still like a capital of a country!"

Wang Mang looked at the city curiously, and sighed: "I didn't expect to come to Shi Country one day, it looks pretty good!"

Ruyan snorted softly: "I think it's not as good as Chongzhou."

Di Renjie, Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang looked at each other and smiled.

Li Yuanfang said: "My lord, let's find an inn to stay in first, and then decide what to do next."

As soon as the words fell, suddenly, there was a commotion ahead, and a group of Turkic cavalry came galloping.

Wang Mang, Di Renjie and others hurriedly covered their cheeks with white scarves.

It turned out that a team of Turkic cavalry galloped past.

Di Renjie breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly: "Now the border between the two countries is tight, we have to avoid the eyes and ears of Chongzhou's opponents and turn to Turkic. We must act with heart, otherwise the success will fall short."

Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang nodded, and the group walked along the street.

Suddenly, Wang Mang saw a star in front of an alley.

Wang Mang's eyes lit up, and he said to Di Renjie behind him, "My lord, why don't we go to the inn ahead!"

Di Renjie glanced at Wang Mang thoughtfully, then nodded, "Well, let's go to the inn ahead!"

Ruyan asked strangely: "Master Hou, have you ever been to Shi Country?"

Wang Mang smiled: "I have never been here before, this is the first time I have come, but I heard that there are two pheasant feathers hanging in front of the inn here."

Ruyan nodded: "I see!"

Li Yuanfang said with a smile: "Jing Yang is really an expert.",

Wang Mang waved his hand: "I just read a few more books, I can't be considered an expert!"

A few people turned into this narrow alley while talking.

There is a remote inn in the alley, and there are two pheasant feathers hanging in front of the door, which serve as signs.

Di Renjie and his party came to the door of the inn. Wang Mang couldn't speak Turkic, so he looked at Li Yuanfang.

Without further ado, Li Yuanfang got off his horse and shouted in Turkic, "Is anyone there?"

Soon, a clerk ran out: "Here you are, guest, do you want to stay at the hotel?"

Li Yuanfang nodded: "How many rooms does your inn have?"

The guy said, "About twenty or so rooms."

Li Yuanfang said: "I've taken care of everything, don't accept other guests."

The man hesitated and said, "This, this is not easy."

Li Yuanfang took out a sapphire from his pocket and handed it over: "Is this enough?"

The guy was startled, took it quickly, looked at it again and again, and then said with a smile on his face: "That's enough, that's enough, please come in!"

Li Yuanfang nodded, waved his hands behind him, and everyone quickly got off their horses, then lifted off the baskets of goods carried by the other two horses, and walked towards the inn.

Di Renjie, Wang Mang, Li Yuanfang, and Ruyan walked into the room.

Suddenly, a suffocating musty smell came to the nostrils. Ruyan blew her nose vigorously and said, "It smells really bad, uncle, let's change."

When Wang Mang heard this, he looked at Di Renjie.

Di Renjie glanced at Wang Mang, and said with a smile, "Ruyan, it's secluded here, and it's not easy to be noticed by others, so just make do with it and stay for a few days, ah."

Ruyan said aggrievedly: "That's fine."

Di Renjie said to Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang: "Let's set off immediately and go to Yazhang to meet Ji Li Khan."

Ruyan asked: "Then, can I go with you?"

Di Renjie said, "Of course."

Wang Mang glanced at Di Renjie and thought about it.

Ruyan jumped up excitedly: "Great, let's go then!"

Di Renjie nodded, and the four of them walked out of the room.

……

In front of the gate of Jili Khan's tooth tent, there is a long side street, and the opposite side is crowded with shops, which is very lively.

Di Renjie and Wang Mang came slowly, Li Yuanfang pouted at the gate not far away, and said softly: "My lord, that is the tooth tent."

Wang Mang also followed Li Yuanfang's gaze to carefully look at the so-called tooth tent, saying that it was a tent, but it was actually a building similar to a palace.

In front of the gate, Turkic guards guarded it closely.

Di Renjie nodded, looked around, and said, "Find a place to sit down first."

Wang Mang, Li Yuanfang and Ru Yan nodded, and soon, they walked to a grocery store opposite.

Li Yuanfang said in Turkic: "Shopkeeper, we are passing by. We are thirsty and ask for a bowl of water."

Said, handed over a bead.

When the boss saw Zhuzi, he smiled immediately: "Okay, okay, please sit down."

While talking, he put some tables in front of the door, and Di Renjie and Wang Mang sat down.

The boss brought out water, and several people brought up bowls to drink water. Wang Mang's eyes kept searching around, and the surroundings were very peaceful.

At this time, Di Renjie put down the water bowl in his hand and winked at Li Yuanfang.

Li Yuanfang understood, stood up, and walked quickly to the gate of the dental tent.

Di Renjie pouted at Wang Mang and Ruyan again, Ruyan was taken aback, Di Renjie and Wang Mang had already got up and walked into the grocery store, Ruyan hurried to follow.

……

At this time, Ji Li Khan was staring at the marching map on the wall in the dental tent.

After a while, he let out a long sigh and turned around.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, and a guard walked in quickly: "Khan!"

Ji Li raised his head: "What's the matter?"

The guard handed over a cloth bag in his hand: "Someone just gave this thing to the villain, and asked me to give it to Your Majesty."

Ji Li took the cloth bag and opened it. He was stunned. There was the Tiger Head Flying Eagle ring in it!

Ji Li Khan was overjoyed and asked, "Where is the man?"

The guard said, "It's just outside the door."

Ji Li happily said: "Let's go!"

……

Di Renjie and Wang Mang, covered in white scarves, were waiting at the gate of the dental tent.

Suddenly, there was a rapid neighing of horses at the end of the street, a troop of pumas came galloping, and in a blink of an eye they came in front of the four of them, the leader shouted, and a dozen horses immediately surrounded the four of them, and the four of them were startled and retreated again and again.

The leader whistled, and amidst the dust and smoke, a large net fell from the sky, trapping the four people in the net.

The leader shouted loudly, the horse team stopped turning, turned their horses' heads and ran towards the way they came. The four of them were dragged into the net and let the horses drag them forward.

After a while, Ji Li Khan came out with guards, but there was nothing in front of the gate, where was Di Renjie's shadow?
Ji Li was stunned for a moment, and turned around to ask the guard, "Where's the person?"

The guard wondered, "You were still here just now!"

As he spoke, he walked quickly to the door and asked the guard standing guard, "Where is that person?"

The guard on guard said: "After you go in, I saw that man walk into the grocery store opposite, and call out three more people from the store, and the four of them stood in front of the door and waited together, but just now a horse team came from the east, After the horse team passed by, the four disappeared."

Ji Li Khan was taken aback: "Cavalry, what cavalry?"

The guard said: "I don't know the little one. There were about a dozen horses. After passing by, those four people disappeared!"

Ji Li stomped her feet fiercely: "Not good!"

He said to the guard who reported the message: "You lead a team of guards to chase immediately, and you must save those four people!"

The guard responded loudly and ran down.

Ji Li wiped the cold sweat off his brow, suddenly he seemed to remember something, took out the cloth bag from his arms, opened it, took out the ring, and then looked over and over again at the piece of red cloth wrapped with the ring.

His hand stopped suddenly: there was a line of regular characters written on the back of the red cloth!
