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

Your Majesty thought he had guessed the whole story, so naturally he was not in a good mood towards Di Renjie.

However, the person who spoke was Zhang Jianzhi, not Di Renjie, and the people standing were Hu Jinghui and Li Cunxi, not Li Qingxia.

He could not vent his resentment on the ministers who worked hard, nor on the meritorious officials who had made contributions to the country. He could only curse Di Renjie in his heart for being a bad guy.

After deciding how to exile Di Renjie, Wu Zetian said calmly:

"Di Huaiying solved such a bizarre case in just a few months. He is truly amazing!"

Zhang Jianzhi immediately climbed up the pole and said:

"What's even more valuable is that we rescued Jili Khan and helped him quell the rebellion and restore his country, which made the war disappear without a trace and made Jili Khan willing to bow down before the imperial court. It can really be said that we conquered the enemy without fighting!"

When Wu Zetian heard that old man Zhang Jianzhi was still praising Di Renjie, she felt very unhappy, but she could only endure it and not get angry.

"There is no need to verify what Di Huaiying reported. Just approve it!"

Zhang Jianzhi quickly agreed.

At this moment, the ministers in the court also felt a lot more relaxed.

The case of the murder of the envoys was over and the war no longer had to be fought. Di Renjie followed Jili Khan to fight back against the Turks. It was likely that it would take some time for him to return to Beijing.

There is no need to be afraid of being reported by Di Renjie, so cool!

I saw that Liang Wang Wu Sansi was already beaming with joy at this moment, and said:

"Your Majesty, now that our two countries are on good terms, our country has no worries about the Turks! It's all thanks to your Majesty!"

After these words were spoken, Wu Zetian's expression, which was not very good to begin with, suddenly became even uglier.

No worries about the Turks?

Unless the Turks are completely destroyed, there will be no worries about the Turks.

Otherwise, as long as the Turks exist, the war factions within the Turks will have all kinds of ideas to go to war with the Great Zhou.

Wu Chengsi, who usually did not attend court, went to court today for some unknown reason.

He had never spoken before, but this time, seeing that Wu Sansi was flattering the wrong person, the brotherhood in his heart, which had long been thin, made him take the initiative to step forward and change the subject, saying:

"Your Majesty, although you have already agreed to what Di Gong said, there is still a meritorious official under the emperor's steps who has not been rewarded."

"General Hu has not yet received his reward."

Wu Zetian collected her thoughts and looked at her great nephew again.

I'm afraid that this nephew is not interested in the wine, but cares about Li Cunxi!

"Jinghui is my favorite general. He has made great contributions to the country. I will confer him the title of First-Class Loyal and Brave Earl!"

"Your Majesty, thank you for your grace!" Hu Jinghui knelt down and kowtowed.

"Well, get up." Wu Zetian finally looked at Li Cunxi and tilted her head and said, "Cunxi, you have made great contributions in this case. What kind of reward do you hope to get?"

Li Cunxi felt a lump in his throat. Let me choose for myself?

Without time to think, Li Cunxi fell to his knees with a thud.

"Your Majesty, Cunxi is the descendant of a criminal. It is his duty to contribute to the country. I dare not ask for a reward."

"Then, I will grant you the right to restore your original name. What do you think? Cunxi, are you willing to restore your original name, Li Zezhou?"

Zhang Jianzhi's expression suddenly froze.

The name Li Zezhou sounds so familiar to him!

Isn't this the name of the youngest son of Li Ai, Duke of Huang, who was implicated in the Yue King Rebellion many years ago?

The reason why he remembered this name was because Li Zezhou was the only one who disappeared during the exile.

After all, he was both a teacher and a friend, but Di Renjie only told him that Li Cunxi was the heir of the Li family, but did not tell him his real name!

"Your Majesty, I am used to this name now. As for the reward, please don't give me any. Even if I die a thousand times, I cannot repay your Majesty's grace."

Li Cunxi spoke again in a loud voice.

As for whether Li Cunxi was telling the truth or not, it doesn’t matter anymore.

All Wu Zetian wanted was an attitude.

Upon hearing this, Wu Zetian smiled, a rare smile, and said:

"If you have committed a crime, I will punish you. If you have made a contribution, I will also reward you. However, I don't know how I should reward you."

"I will think about it carefully after I leave the court. You can go back home and wait for me."

Li Cunxi breathed a sigh of relief and bowed again:

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

……

After the court session, Li Cunxi walked out with his head hung.

After walking a few steps, I heard someone shouting from behind:

"Cunxi, why are you walking so fast?"

Li Cunxi stopped and looked back.

He saw Wu Chengsi, who came out with the Minister of Rites Wu Yizong, smiling at him.

"Your Highness the Prince of Wei!" Li Cunxi came back and bowed.

"Emperor Yizong, I want to talk to my disciple. We'll meet in my house another day." Wu Chengsi said casually.

"Chengsi, we are brothers. Why don't you talk to your brothers when you see your disciples?" Wu Yizong also laughed.

"My student has just made great contributions in Youzhou. He just came back and hasn't met his teacher yet. Shouldn't I get closer to him?"

Wu Chengsi said goodbye to Wu Yizong with a smile, and then patted Li Cunxi on the shoulder.

"I knew that you would be able to make good use of my golden token."

"Thank you, King Wei, for your kindness. I used the golden token in order to infiltrate the enemy. I have always carried it with me. Now I am handing it over to King Wei, and it is also returning it to its original owner."

Li Cunxi hurriedly took out the gold-lettered token from his arms and presented it with both hands.

"Take it. Although we are not teacher and student in name, we are teacher and student in reality. Who in the court doesn't know that you are my disciple, Wu Chengsi?"

"Then Cunxi thanks the teacher."

Without waiting for Wu Chengsi to say anything more, Li Cunxi put the golden token back into his arms.

It's so funny. If you don't take advantage of an opportunity, you're a bastard.

In the world of Detective Di Renjie, where martial arts and intelligence are elevated to extremely bizarre levels, the more good things like this the better.

"Then, you will accompany me for a walk."

"Thank you, Master!"

Wu Sansi, who had just walked out of the Taiji Palace, wanted to call his cousin, but he found that after Li Cunxi said "Thank you, my teacher", he actually took the initiative to support Wu Chengsi and walked out of the Taiji Palace.

"Hateful, hateful!"

"We are all members of the Wu family. If we don't kill all the descendants of the Li family, many ministers will force my aunt to pass the throne to the Li family. How can you and I stand a chance?"

"Now you are getting together with Li Cunxi, the remnant of the Li family. If one day he changes back to Li Zezhou, I wonder what you will do!"

Wu Sansi was filled with impotence and fury outside the Taiji Hall. After a while, he left in a rage and decided to continue to win over ministers and form a clique for personal gain.

Li Cunxi supported Wu Chengsi and came to the outside of Taiji Palace, only to see that the carriages of Prince Wei's Mansion and the Di Mansion were already ready.

Wu Chengsi put his hand on Li Cunxi's arm and asked:

"How about going to my house to watch a Western striptease?"

He paused for a moment, then continued, "I still have some fruit wine that you probably have never tasted. If you are not used to fruit wine, I still have some green wine."

Li Cunxi knew he couldn't refuse, so he bowed and said:

"Thanks to my teacher's kindness, I am willing to go! However, I need to go back to the Di Mansion first and wait for His Majesty's order."
