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

In this era, pedophilia refers to teenagers and boys who have that kind of relationship with men.

In a similar way, there were also bookboys in this era. Although bookboys were all men, as long as the young master had any request in that aspect, they not only had to agree, but also had to serve the young master happily.

Ji Nu is simpler, just an ordinary little girl.

However, these days, if a young girl is bought into a wealthy family, her fate is nothing more than becoming a toy for others to play with at will.

There is a small door between the back hall and the second hall, and a small path is also specially opened here. This is where the male prostitutes and the young girls live. It is obvious what this place is used for.

Wu Sansi stepped forward and pushed open the door to the second hall.

The dim second hall suddenly became bright under the light, and the gorgeous decoration inside almost blinded Li Cunxi's eyes... This is not a second hall at all, it is clearly a room, with three exquisite beds covered with thick cushions, and all kinds of ancient toys neatly arranged, which is an eye-opener.

Li Cunxi frowned and left the second hall first. He couldn't bear to look at this incredible thing.

"What's wrong, Cunxi?"

Wu Chengsi followed out and asked with a smile on his face.

In fact, with his connections, it was quite easy for him to know the internal layout of the Xue Mansion, but he still wanted to tease the young Li Cunxi. After all, Li Cunxi should be completely indifferent to this kind of thing, which did not belong to this era.

In this era, keeping some male paramours, male pets, maids, etc. is a virtue and also a way of playing among dignitaries.

For example, Wu Chengsi, although he had no servants, no male prostitutes, and no concubines, he had some maids in his house, such as those Western dancers, and there were more than a dozen of them in his house. Among them were not only strippers, but also beauties of various Western dance styles.

Perhaps Wu Chengsi himself did not show the perverted hobby of playing with male favorites, maids, and pedophiles, but in that era, such a hobby was not something that could not be revealed.

"Master, I think this kind of thing... I probably can't do it."

"Remember Li Chengqian, the eldest son of Emperor Taizong who died in exile? I don't think I should add a bad reputation to myself that may be remembered forever, based on my behavior and the ministers' likes and dislikes."

Li Cunxi tried to suppress his nausea and said seriously. But when he thought that those tools were used to play with boys, he couldn't help but feel nauseous.

"That's fine. I can tolerate my students falling in love with the dancers in my house, but they can't have that kind of relationship with men."

Wu Chengsi suppressed his smile, and felt more and more that Li Cunxi was quite good, and that they could develop a further relationship. However, it seemed that Li Cunxi already had several good choices... and sometimes he liked to pretend too much.

The first time the two met was in the Ganlu Hall of the Taiji Palace, which was the emperor's bedroom. After he learned the news, he wanted to find an excuse to pay homage to Wu Zetian at night, but his good brother Wu Sansi came to him and gave him a chance to meet Li Cunxi openly.

From that day on, he tried every means to meet Li Cunxi. He showed up every time when Di Gong went to Yuanjue Temple to pay homage or went to the northern capital.

The last time Li Cunxi went to Huzhou, if he had not been in Huzhou, given his personality, he would definitely not have gone.

It was his great help time and time again that allowed two people who liked to pretend to be together to form an alliance. Come to think of it, it was really a strange yet fear-inspiring combination.

"Let's go back to the main hall. I'm sure His Majesty and the ministers will be here soon."

Wu Chengsi laughed three times, pulled Li Cunxi through the small door in the back hall, and returned to the front hall.

Chen Ya finally saw them and hurried over, clasping his fists and saying:

"Your Highness, Prince of Wei, Lord Li, we just found Xue Aocao's head in a side room next door. The head and body were separated, and it was extremely tragic."

Wu Chengsi easily accepted Xue Aocao's ending. After all, Xue Aocao's brother died in the main hall. It would be very interesting if Xue Aocao could survive.

Following Chen Ya, Li Cunxi also saw the body of the sports teacher on the roof, as well as the head. The face on the head was the one he had seen yesterday.

One night separates the two of us.

"Can you confirm that the headless body is his?" Li Cunxi pointed at the body on the ground.

"We have to test it first. After all..." Chen Ya showed an embarrassed expression, "After all, he is your Majesty's male favorite. If we don't test it, I'm afraid it will be difficult to report to your Majesty."

The emperor had an unpredictable temper. When he heard that Xue Aocao was dead, he must have been so angry that one of his souls left his body and the other went to heaven.

By then, Wu Zetian would be a runaway active volcano that would explode directly if touched by anything. Xue Aocao's body could not become the culprit that detonated this active volcano.

"Let someone go and check it out." Wu Chengsi nodded his chin.

"Yes."

Chen Ya wiped the non-existent beads of sweat from his forehead, turned around and ordered the coroner who had just arrived to perform an autopsy.

Li Cunxi suddenly felt bored. The autopsy process would not be short, but it would definitely not be long. Wu Zetian had not arrived yet, and there were no clues at the scene.

"Why are you in a daze? Are you hungry?" Wu Chengsi tilted his head and looked.

"Well, some." Li Cunxi said.

"I'm hungry too, but judging from the current situation, the tragedy at the Xue Mansion happened after you left. His Majesty is bound to be furious. I'm afraid we have to investigate the case with full authority." Wu Chengsi retracted his gaze and turned to Xue Nanze, whose throat was cut in the main hall. "The tragic death of the Xue brothers and the execution of the entire Xue Mansion, I'm afraid you and I have fallen into a scam."

"Master, could it be that you have noticed something?"

"Of course... When His Majesty comes later, you should tell me the truth. This will probably be the first time that you and I will take the initiative to cooperate. I am more interested in this than the last trip to Huzhou."

"I am also looking forward to our investigation together, Master, but I always feel that His Majesty will definitely let my uncle join the investigation."

"That would be even better. Let's bring together that old man Di Renjie... oh no, the old prime minister. The wisdom of the three of us combined is enough to reconstruct all the events that happened at that time."

Wu Chengsi has always recognized Di Renjie's wisdom.

Ten years ago, when Wu Chengsi was still harming the Li clan, he and Di Renjie were rivals.

Ten years later, the two of them are actually investigating the case together. It is really... an interesting thing... I just don’t know how Di Renjie would deal with it if the case is also linked to the descendants of the Li family.

"Your Majesty is here!"

Outside Xue's mansion, the eunuch Zhu Liren shouted.

Wu Chengsi turned to Li Cunxi and said, "Follow me to see His Majesty."

The two of them took Chen Ya, Ma Rong, Lao Hei, and more than ten yamen runners out of Xue's mansion.

Wu Zetian was still sitting upright on the dragon chariot outside, but her face was filled with ferocity and anxiety.

"Your Majesty, your servant Wu Chengsi pays respect to you!"

"Your Majesty, I, Li Cunxi, greet you!"
