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

Faced with Hu Jinghui's question, Li Cunxi did not answer immediately.

He was still observing Hu Jinghui's expression.

Hu Jinghui was too calm tonight, and from the moment Hu Jinghui took over the bag until now, the other party seemed to have tacitly agreed to something.

"Cunxi, thank you Brother Jinghui for speaking up and saving me in advance."

"I haven't done anything."

"Yes, you didn't do anything." Li Cunxi said calmly, "But I still want to thank you."

"I should be the one thanking you." Hu Jinghui bared his teeth.

"Goodbye." Li Cunxi finished the tea in the cup, bowed, and was about to leave the Hu Mansion.

"I'll see you off." Hu Jinghui stood up and said.

"No need, a night of spring is worth a thousand gold."

Li Cunxi sighed and left with Ma Rong.

After leaving the Tiger Mansion and seeing that no one was following him, Li Cunxi raised his head and laughed.

Ma Rong asked, "What's wrong, sir?"

Li Cunxi took Ma Rong away and then whispered, "Please excuse me. On the fifth day of December, you will leave for Youzhou to help me find something."

"what?"

"Help me dig up the grave of my cousin Princess Yiyang and see clearly whether the person inside is my cousin!"

"No way, sir, Princess Yi Yang has already..."

"I was sure of it before, but now, I really don't believe it."

……

The lights in Ganlu Palace were bright.

Wu Sansi knelt on the ground with his forehead touching the ground.

On the bed, Wu Zetian, who was lying on her side, said coldly:

"Think twice, you are really brave."

Wu Sansi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and said quickly:

"I am guilty, I am guilty, I hope Your Majesty will punish me!"

Wu Zetian sneered and said:

"How could I punish you, Sansi? You should know that you are my most proud nephew, and I will never punish you. You should know that I have trained you as my successor."

Wu Sansi closed his eyes and thought to himself, what the hell is a successor? Aren’t you just sincerely treating me as a whetstone?

Although he was not very smart and only knew how to fight among factions and frame political enemies, he was not vague when faced with such a major event. He and the prince became relatives, and the two were like grasshoppers on the same rope.

The situation in the court is very clear now. If he is really regarded as the successor, he should be allowed to marry his daughter to Li Cunxi and form an alliance with Li Cunxi.

"I know what you are thinking. I also know that you think that you and Li Xian are just whetstones, and that the person I want to pass the throne to is not one of you two. Not only that, I also know that you think you should really form an alliance with Li Cunxi, so that you can be regarded as the successor."

Wu Zetian saw through all of Wu Sansi's little thoughts.

Wu Zetian, lying on her side on the bed, had a strange smile on her face.

Her tone was calm, but extremely seductive.

"But you know, Crown Prince Li Xian is the first successor. This is a recognized fact by all the civil and military officials in the court. You form an alliance with Li Xian and overthrow everyone else. Either he will be the crown prince, or you will be the crown prince. This is a good thing."

"As for Li Cunxi and Wu Chengsi, Li Cunxi is just the descendant of an exile. How can he be qualified to be the crown prince? Chengsi can only be a prince at best. He cannot be the emperor."

"He is the emperor. Who among the civil and military officials in the court will obey him? Just because he rolls around among the beauties of the Western Regions every day, do people obey him?"

"Li Lingyue is extremely lewd, and Li Dan is extremely stupid. How can these two be my children?"

"The only person I can truly trust is you, Wu Sansi. I have seen how much you have done for me over the years. If Li Xian cannot succeed to the throne, I will definitely choose you."

Wu Sansi's heart, which had originally been silent, suddenly became active again. He raised his head suddenly and looked at Wu Zetian lying on the bed, his eyes full of excitement.

Wu Zetian smiled faintly and continued:

"I have one more thing to say. You must listen carefully. If you want to take the throne, you must first prevent Li Dan and Li Lingyue from having the opportunity to take the throne. Then you can compete with Wu Chengsi and Li Cunxi, and finally defeat Li Xian."

"understand?"

Wu Sansi kowtowed repeatedly in excitement.

"I understand!"

"Then you can go down." Wu Zetian waved her hand, "I am a little tired."

"Yes!"

Wu Sansi left excitedly, walked out of Ganlu Hall and Taiji Palace, and headed towards Prince Liang's Mansion.

You Huan, who had been secretly monitoring Wu Sansi, returned to Ganlu Palace and bowed to Wu Zetian.

"Your Majesty, Prince Liang has already returned home."

"Well, this bastard really thought that I would pass the throne to him." Wu Zetian snorted coldly, "Call Wu Chengsi and Li Cunxi."

"Leader!"

……

When the night ended and the day came, Li Cunxi and Wu Chengsi left Taiji Palace and went to Prince Wei's Mansion to have breakfast together. Only then did Li Cunxi leave Prince Wei's Mansion.

After returning to the Di residence, Li Cunxi came to the study in the side courtyard. Lu Dayou, who had gotten up early, was still reading a book, but he changed the book today. He was actually reading the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine, which even Li Cunxi could not understand.

Speaking of the book "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic", Li Cunxi had found this book in several places before and had read it before, but he really couldn't understand this book. Whether he had an intelligence of 101 or 104, he couldn't understand it. He had to ask Di Renjie for help twice in his spare time, and only then did he barely understand a little under his guidance.

This also made Li Cunxi understand that no matter how smart he is, he still needs a good teacher to teach him and study hard, otherwise he will be like Fang Zhongyong, who was mediocre in appearance and became Shang Zhongyong in a few years.

Seeing Lu Dayou frowning as he read, Li Cunxi leaned over and took a look at the book. After this glance, Li Cunxi didn't want to look at it even once more. The content of the book was really hard to understand.

And it’s all classical Chinese.

Li Cunxi curled his lips and turned away.

"Sir, now that you're back, why don't you accompany me to read this book? There are many things I don't understand."

Lu Dayou finally noticed Li Cunxi's return and quickly stood up and said.

After a dry laugh, Li Cunxi said, "Forget it. You are looking for my uncle. I don't understand this either."

"Okay then. I'll go look for you after I have breakfast." Lu Dayou didn't force it and squatted down to continue reading.

Li Cunxi returned to his study, and with nothing to do, he picked up his inkstone and brush and began to practice calligraphy. His handwriting was indeed ugly, and in this era, it was not much better than that of a beginner. If he were to participate in the imperial examination, Li Cunxi's handwriting would definitely drive the examiner crazy.

After practicing for an hour or so, Ma Rong, who had gone out to buy some pastries as snacks, came back with a portion of pastries in one hand and a letter in the other.

"Dayou, eat something. There's no rush to watch. I bought some cakes for you. Eat some to fill your stomach. There's still an hour before breakfast."

Lu Dayou wiped his mouth, stood up quickly and said:

"Then I won't be polite."

He turned to Li Cunxi in the study and shouted:

"Sir, have some snacks!"

Li Cunxi had finished his breakfast and was now concentrating on practicing calligraphy. He answered casually:

"No, you guys eat, I've had breakfast at my mentor's house."

While he was answering, Ma Rong had already placed the cakes on the stone table in the yard and went into the study with the letter.

"Sir, there is a letter from Xize Bank."
