At the beginning, Qin Shi Huang traveled to my home

"Haha, Lord Di, you are right," Li Wu laughed awkwardly and retorted in his heart, no, no, even if he had not done anything wrong, he would still be afraid.

"Let me continue talking about you, Lord Di.

With the recommendation of Yan Liben, you, Lord Di, were promoted to the position of Chief Justice of Bingzhou Military Governor's Office.

During the Yifeng period, Lord Di was promoted to the position of Dali Temple Secretary.

You adjudicated a large number of backlog cases involving more than 17,000 people within a year, but no one protested their injustice. Later, Lord Di was transferred to the position of Imperial Censor.

It was also because of this incident that your image as a detective, Mr. Di, began to gain popularity. You handled so many backlog cases in just one year, which shows how powerful your methods are.

In 686 AD, Lord Di was sent to Ningzhou as the governor.

During your tenure, you handled ethnic relations properly and were deeply loved by the people at that time.

The people of Ningzhou also erected a monument and engraved a stone tablet for you, Lord Di, to praise your benevolent governance.

At that time, the censor Guo Han inspected Longyou and impeached a large number of county officials.

But when he arrived in Ningzhou, he kept hearing local people praising the local governor, Lord Di.

One or two common people might lie, but if so many people boasted about their knowledge of literature, they must be good officials. So Guo Han recommended you, Lord Di, to the court.

Not long after, Lord Di, you were also appointed as the Minister of Winter Palace.

Lord Di, you work for the people, and that can be seen. The people know who is a good official, and they will love and support him. "The people naturally know who is a good official and who is a bad official.

Although the highest-ranking official they came into contact with was only a county magistrate, how could they not know whether the county magistrate was doing a good job?

The ancestors in front of the sky curtain also nodded. It was true. Whether an official was loved by the people or not could definitely be seen from this what kind of official he was.

Many people in Ningzhou shouted to the sky, "Sir Di!" They said, "Sir Di is a good official, a very good official."

He also said that since Lord Di and his men came here, there have been fewer crimes. Although Lord Di had been transferred away a long time ago, there are still relatively few crimes there.

This could not help but make other people envious. The officials who managed them were not so good. They oppressed and exploited the people every day and did not treat them as human beings.

Although it has been restrained a lot now, it is not much better yet.

Because they were concerned about the sky and the barrage, and were afraid that the people would report them.

What the people are most grateful for is the barrage from the little immortal. With this, they can report it immediately.

Which of those officials is not afraid of losing their official hats?

Emperor Gaozong of Tang and Empress Wu Zetian both nodded with satisfaction and were quite satisfied with Di Renjie.

Sky

"Of course. How can the people not know who is good and who is bad?" Di Renjie laughed twice.

Bao Zheng and Song Ci didn't say anything. In fact, there are no absolutely good or bad officials. They just need to have a clear conscience.

"Yes, yes, in 688 AD, you, Lord Di, served as the governor of Jiangnan.

At that time, the area south of the Yangtze River was full of lewd temples. These lewd temples were set up by the people themselves and were not included in the sacrificial rites.

Upon seeing this phenomenon, Lord Di immediately reported it to the imperial court, and later more than 1,700 obscene temples were burned down.

Only four temples dedicated to Xia Yu, Tai Bo, Ji Zha and Wu Yuan remained.

Not long after, Lord Di was transferred to be the Right Prime Minister of Wenchang, and in the same year he was appointed as the Governor of Yuzhou.

At that time, King Li Zhen of Yue raised an army in Yuzhou and wanted to rebel against Wu Zetian.

Prime Minister Zhang Guangfu led his army to suppress the rebellion, but he allowed his subordinates to extort money on a large scale.

Lord Di, you refused to listen at all and even scolded Zhang Guangfu, saying that his crime might be even greater than Li Zhen's.

Lord Di, you are really brave. You even dared to scold the prime minister at that time. You are really not afraid of offending people." Li Wu couldn't help but give Di Renjie a thumbs up. He was really stubborn.

He is really not afraid of offending people and is very brave.

If someone else were in charge, who would dare to offend the boss? They would have to flatter and say nice things for fear of offending him.

"Isn't what I said the truth? I feel I have done nothing wrong. Zhang Guangfu condoned his generals to extort money. Can't I say anything about this matter? It's not the other party's fault in the first place," Di Renjie snorted coldly, and he was still a little angry when he said this.

It wasn't his fault in the first place. Just because the other party holds a higher official position than him, should he just pretend he didn't see it and ignore it?

This is not his style of doing things. When Di Renjie does things, he only wants to be worthy of the people and himself.

The comments on this matter have a lot to say. They all know without having to guess that Di Renjie has offended someone and will definitely be punished by the petty-minded Zhang Guangfu.

Generally, they really dare not offend their superiors, for fear that they will be retaliated against. Some superiors are really narrow-minded, and their minds are not even as small as the hole of a needle.

"Of course not. If you let it go, you wouldn't be Lord Di. I think you did the right thing. You are not afraid of power.

However, Zhang Guangfu did bear a grudge against you later on, and the first thing he did after returning to the court was naturally to impeach you, Lord Di.

They said that you were rude, did not take the prime minister seriously, and insulted the prime minister, etc., so Lord Di was demoted to the governor of Fuzhou.

It was not until 690 AD that Wu Zetian proclaimed herself emperor and changed the name of Tang to Zhou, calling it Wu Zhou.

At that time, Lord Di, you were no longer young and had reached your sixties.

At the age of 61, Lord Di, you were promoted to prime minister. Wu Zetian respected you very much and never called you by your name, but always respectfully addressed you as the state elder.

You were never allowed to perform the ritual of kneeling and bowing, and because you were old at the time, Wu Zetian also exempted you from the obligation to be on duty in the palace at night.

He also warned the officials not to disturb Lord Di unless it was an extremely important military or national matter.

However, Lord Di, you are a man of integrity and have always cared about the Li Tang Dynasty. So in 692 AD, the cruel official Lai Junchen framed you with the crime of treason.

This Lai Junchen is really bad. Countless people have died in his hands. Lord Di, aren't you demoted now?" Li Wu asked. This Lai Junchen really deserves to die.

Di Renjie nodded. He was indeed demoted. In fact, perhaps serving in the court was not suitable for him.

Wu Zetian's face looked extremely ugly in front of the sky curtain. Lai Junchen had naturally died long ago. Even if she wanted to protect him, it would be impossible. All the ministers and people demanded that Lai Junchen be killed, so she could only kill him based on public opinion.

And now there are not so many people who oppose her becoming an emperor as a woman. This is mainly thanks to the little immortal.

She also allowed women to take part in the imperial examinations. Who says women are inferior to men?

Women could also join the army and do whatever they wanted. In her dynasty, women were still very free.

At least compared to other dynasties, the policies she implemented were accepted by people more quickly.

If they can all accept a woman as emperor, what else can they not accept?

Besides, they have daughters/granddaughters who can bring honor to the family. What's wrong with that?

The faces of several Tang Dynasty emperors were as dark as the bottom of a pot, especially Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, who was so furious that he was about to explode.
