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

Outside the Prince of Wei's mansion, Li Cunxi saw Di Chun who came to pick him up.

"Master, here, here."

Di Chun personally drove the carriage over and asked Li Cunxi to get on the carriage and hurry back to Di Mansion.

The curfew in Chang'an is about to arrive, and they still have plenty of time to return to Di Mansion before then.

"Brother Di Chun, how did you find this place?"

Li Cunxi shrank into the carriage and couldn't help but ask.

The fact that he was brought to the Prince of Wei's mansion by the Prince of Wei happened suddenly, and Di Chun had no time to investigate before that.

"It's like this. Half an hour ago, someone came to me and said that you, young master, were taken away by the King of Wei, and asked me to pick you up at the King of Wei's mansion."

"Who went to find you?"

"That night in Jiangzhang County, one of the two men who came to see you, I think his last name was Ma."

Ma Rong?

Li Cunxi raised his eyebrows.

"It's okay, Brother Di Chun, go back."

It has been delayed for several days, so there shouldn't be anything to do next.

He performed well when he entered the palace to meet the emperor, so Wu Zetian would definitely not choose to kill him for some time afterwards.

When facing the second-in-command of the Wu family, Prince of Wei Wu Chengsi, his performance did not make the other party want to kill him.

Now all we need to do is be on guard against Liang Wang Wu Sansi and don't let this old scepter find a chance to mess with us.

As for Wu Chengye who is still in Luoyang... he is just a mad dog!

A useless guy who can only bark!

Li Cunxi didn't take it seriously.

If Wu Chengye really doesn't know how to appreciate my kindness, the worst that can happen is that I ask my big brother to assassinate Wu Chengye directly!

Dead people will never bark like dogs again.

……

Earthen kiln outside Chang'an city.

"Sir, since we have already arrived in Chang'an, why don't we go to the palace to see the emperor?"

"Of course, it's to avoid the other party's eyes and ears."

Outside the earthen kiln, the ground was littered with burnt wooden stakes. Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang, who had disappeared for a day and two nights, stood among the wooden stakes and seemed to be in the mood to chat.

"Is there an enemy spy within the court?"

"That's for sure. Otherwise, how did they find me in Jiangzhang County? And how did you meet me?"

"You are right, sir. If they hadn't tipped me off, a country bumpkin like me would never have known where you are!"

Although the two were still chatting, Di Renjie's eyes were always scanning the ground.

He hoped to find some evidence in this pile of coke.

Or some credentials.

Proves that the kiln fire was not just an ordinary incident.

Soon, Di Renjie saw something that shouldn't appear on this land!

He squatted down and dug out a handkerchief that was not completely burned from the charred wooden stake.

"Sir, this is..."

Li Yuanfang suddenly lost his words.

If he was not blind, that torn handkerchief was the same one discarded by the murderer that Ishikawakawa encountered!

Di Renjie nodded and put the handkerchief into his wide sleeves.

This one piece of evidence is enough to prove that the kiln fire was closely related to the murder of the envoys.

The one who took action!

They are from the same gang!

"Let's go and observe further."

……

Tai Chi Palace.

"Jianzhi, what's going on?"

Wu Zetian was walking in the corridor, followed by the prime minister Zhang Jianzhi and the General of the Guards Hu Jinghui.

"The Imperial Guards and the Imperial Guards did not find Lord Di."

Zhang Jianzhi's eyes were full of helplessness.

Right next to Chang'an, at the feet of the emperor.

There was actually a case of the minister in charge of the case going missing!

The Imperial Guard and the Qianniu Guard went out to search together, but they could not find any trace of the minister in charge of the case!

It's so shameful! The court is almost losing all its face!

Hu Jinghui also spoke:

"I checked all the Qianniu guards and found that no one left the capital last night. It seems that those Qianniu guards are fake."

Wu Zetian remained calm, but in fact she was in so much pain that she couldn't bear it anymore.

She pretended to be helpless and said, "It seems that Huaiying has been killed."

"I never thought that such a famous minister would die at the hands of a villain, and we can't even find any trace of him."

Zhang Jianzhi was also quite helpless.

In just half a month, four major cases occurred in succession in this dynasty!

The last incident directly caused the court to lose a capable and decisive minister in charge of the case!

just now……

Anyway, Zhang Jianzhi certainly doesn't have the ability to solve the case, so the only minister Your Majesty can rely on to handle the case is Prince Wu Chengsi of Wei who is unwilling to interfere in state affairs!

"It's all my fault for not thinking things through. I didn't expect these traitors hiding in the dark to be so cruel and mad that they dared to pretend to be the Royal Guards and secretly attack Di Huaiying."

"They even dared to pretend to be a Turkish envoy. They must be extremely daring and extremely evil. I'm afraid there is nothing that these rats in the gutter wouldn't dare to do."

Wu Zetian and Zhang Jianzhi chatted as they walked.

Right next to the two of them, Hu Jinghui's eyes had already glanced at Zhang Jianzhi.

audacious in the extreme?

A heinous crime?

A street rat?

The person involved is right in front of you!

"The funny thing is, we don't even know who our opponent is."

Wu Zetian frowned and looked at Zhang Jianzhi.

Among the old officials in the court, there are only a few who are truly capable.

As soon as Di Renjie left, Zhang Jianzhi became the only prime minister who could get things done.

As for Wu Sansi, Wu Zetian no longer counted on him!

As long as the other party does not frame his colleagues, Wu Zetian will be lucky.

Now, all we can do is ask the Qianniu Guards to move Wu Chengsi's bed to the Taiji Palace overnight...

"Your Majesty is exhausted by our incompetence."

Zhang Jianzhi lowered his head and accepted the training with peace of mind.

"The thieves are cunning and treacherous. They are in the dark while we are in the light. The situation has become so serious now, and it is not your fault!"

"It seems that we are preparing to go to war with the Turks... Jianzhi, we should strike first and take the initiative to attack. You should immediately draft an imperial decree to appoint Wang Xiaojie, the general of the Left Leopard Guard, as the commander-in-chief of the Northwest Road."

"Move the main forces of the Left and Right Guards to Liangzhou and launch an attack on the Turks before winter comes."

"We must fight quickly and decisively!"

After Wu Zetian gave the order, she felt uncomfortable all over.

This feeling of being led by the nose made her feel like a cow plowing the field.

The master hiding in the dark laughed mockingly as he forced her forward.

"Yes!" Zhang Jianzhi said, "Also, Your Majesty, should we change the date of the incense offering at Yuanjue Temple in three days?"

Wu Zetian: "As usual."

"Also, although we have to fight the war, we can't just put the case aside. Huaiying is in trouble, and the only minister I can rely on to handle the case is the King of Wei."

"Three days later, when you return to the palace after offering incense, Jinghui, you will take the Qianniu Guards to the Prince of Wei's mansion and invite the Prince of Wei to court."

Hu Jinghui lowered his head and responded.

"If Chengsi doesn't want to come, you don't have to say anything more to him."

"If he is sitting on a chair, you should carry him and the chair into the Taiji Palace."

"If he is lying on the bed, then we will tear down the bed and carry him into the palace!"

"Also, Jinghui, tomorrow you go and tell Huaiying's nephew Cunxi to accompany me to Yuanjue Temple to burn incense!"
