Uncle Detective Di Renjie, I build a crime-solving team

Chapter 784 Rare leisure

After a great battle, the two men no longer cared about the Changchun Gate being breached and the Neiwei Palace being burned, so they hurried to rest.

However, it was almost midnight, and judging from the emperor's exposure in the middle of the night, although there would be no court meeting today, there was no guarantee that the emperor would not send someone to invite everyone to court.

Small court meetings are held every three days, and large court meetings are held every five days. The court meeting time is always 7:00 a.m. Only emergency court meetings require one to be on standby at all times.

Li Cunxi fell into a deep sleep. In his dream, he was extremely hungry, so he started to eat the fruit in front of him.

When he woke up again, it was already 23:30 in the morning. Xiao Mei wanted to cry but had no tears. She said:

"Why are you like a baby? Can you bite this?"

Li Cunxi knew nothing, so he could only scratch his head and comfort Xiao Mei for a while before getting dressed and getting out of bed.

On the bed, Xiao Mei was bitten badly and said:

"How come the teeth are so good, hiss."

Li Cunxi had already arrived at the second hall, but before he entered, he saw Xuguzi watching a striptease.

He coughed twice and stood at the door to give Xuguzi some face.

"Your Majesty?"

Xuguzi was frightened and wanted to say something, but suddenly he looked up and saw Li Cunxi standing outside. He quickly asked the dancers to go down and do their own things.

After sending away all the dancers, Xuguzi finally came running over happily.

"Your Majesty, are you up so early?"

Li Cunxi chuckled: "As soon as we met, you old man teased me. It's already this late, and you still say I got up early."

"Hehe, Your Majesty, I just couldn't help but peek for a moment, please don't mind me, hahaha."

"I really don't care." Li Cunxi changed the subject, "I heard that you discovered that Changchun Gate was attacked and the Inner Guard House was on fire last night?"

Xuguzi knew this was a question and quickly said, "I climbed up the roof and discovered it. The Inner Guard House was burned down last night. I was very worried about you, Your Highness."

"Okay, that's all you need to say. I need to go to the palace. Is Ma Rong up yet?"

"Old Ma went out early in the morning to get information and hasn't come back yet."

At this time, in the yard, Qiao Tai was walking and eating a roast chicken.

Li Cunxi looked at this familiar scene and hooked his finger at Qiao Tai.

"Atai, come here."

"What's wrong, my lord? Is there anything I can do for you?"

Qiao Tai stuck out his tongue and licked both chicken legs before walking towards the two of them.

"It's okay, you can go." Li Cunxi said helplessly.

He originally wanted to recreate the scene of snatching Qiao Tai's chicken leg during the Youzhou case to have some fun, but he didn't expect to be seen through by Qiao Tai, so he had to give up.

Judging from the current situation today, it is probably that Prince Wu Sansi of Liang has not been found yet, and the emperor is still waiting for news, otherwise he should let them enter the palace to discuss countermeasures.

After breakfast, Li Cunxi played with his eldest nephew Li Qingfei for a while before going out to look for Wu Yanhao.

Wu Yanhao was still in the Prince of Wei's mansion. When he heard that Li Cunxi had arrived, he left his beloved Cui Luo and followed Li Cunxi out to find a place to play.

The two of them walked around and finally arrived at Di's house, where they found Lu Dayou who was accompanying his wife.

Lu Dayou, a man who was immersed in reading, was obviously in the wrong place for romance. When the two arrived at Lu Dayou's private courtyard, this burly man was reading in front of his wife Qi Ke.

Qi Ke's pregnancy is still not showing, and the fetus in her belly has not yet formed, so Lu Dayou's fetal education is probably not going to be successful.

As for Qi Ke, she was not a book lover when she was waiting to be married. After listening to Lu Dayou reading for an hour, she could no longer sit still. When she saw Li Cunxi and Wu Yanhao appearing outside the yard, she immediately looked at them for help.

"Ah, Your Highness the Prince of Qin, Your Highness the Duke of Liang, you are here."

Qi Ke stood up slowly and bowed to the two of them from a distance.

"You're too polite, sister-in-law."

After exchanging some pleasantries, the two men pushed open the door of the courtyard and walked in one after the other.

Lu Dayou was still a little confused about the arrival of the two people. He didn't quite understand what they were planning to do.

"I say, what's going on today? Are you guys not investigating the case anymore? Why are you bothering to come to me?"

"It seems you all know how busy I have been these past few days, but you obviously don't know another thing. That is, Wu Sansi was rescued last night, and the army is trying to catch him, so we have been free."

As Li Cunxi spoke, he walked to Lu Dayou's left.

At the same time, Wu Yanhao came to Lu Dayou's right side, took Lu Dayou's book and put it on the stone table.

"Sister-in-law, we'll requisition Brother Dayou for a day. Don't mind. We'll send him back in the evening."

Wu Yanhao smiled as he lifted Lu Dayou up.

"That's right, don't worry, we will definitely not take Brother Dayou to places he shouldn't go, haha."

Li Cunxi also grabbed Lu Dayou, shouted something, and then he and Wu Yanhao carried Lu Dayou away.

Qi Ke waved towards the three people who were walking away and said, "Your Highnesses, there's no need to rush to send him back. Have fun outside."

Lu Dayou was anxious: "Madam, Madam, I still have to teach my children Madam, Madam!"

Hearing this, Qi Ke said again: "Husband, I can't hear you. Have fun outside. There's no need to rush back!"

If they were a little further away, Lu Dayou's voice would no longer be audible, so Qi Ke put the book away and took it into the study.

"Finally, I don't have to listen to this Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine anymore. It's too hard to understand."

"It has to be the Book of Songs. How romantic."

Qi Ke took out a copy of the Book of Songs and began to read it slowly.

Outside the Di Mansion, Li Cunxi pulled Lu Dayou into his luxurious carriage. Qiao Tai, who was driving, already knew the destination and just waited for Wu Yanhao to get in before driving away.

The direction the three of them were heading was Jiayu Residence.

Last year, the owner of Jiayu Ju fell seriously ill and died. Before his death, he handed over Jiayu Ju to his son.

This was the first time the three of them went to Jiayu Ju after the change of owner.

In the carriage, Wu Yanhao skillfully took out a jar of fine wine and poured a glass for each person.

"I say, Brother Dayou, you don't love your wife in this way."

"My sister-in-law is a lady from a wealthy family. You expect her to listen to you reading the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine. Isn't that like a cow playing the lute to a human?"

Lu Dayou was in a bad mood, but suddenly he came to his senses.

"You call me a cow?"

Li Cunxi took a peek and after seeing the other person's physique, he couldn't help but say:

"What's the difference between your physique and that of a cow?"

Lu Dayou saw that the two brothers were only about twenty years old, while he was almost forty.

I won’t bother with the two brothers.

"Well, they say I'm a cow, that's what I am. When I married my wife, everyone said I was almost 20 years older than her and that I was an old cow eating young grass."

"I ate it, so what? They wanted to eat it but couldn't."

Lu Dayou seemed to be mocking himself as he took the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
