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

Talking about the treason that happened ten years ago.

Wu Zetian's face was surprisingly calm.

Although Duke Huang Li Ai was framed, it was a foregone conclusion that King Yue Li Zhen was plotting a rebellion.

but……

Those who were against Wu Zetian are all dead!

How could a dead person make her, the King of the Great Zhou, angry?

"All the people who attended the meeting were recorded on the list! That list is in the hands of Liu Jin, the secretary of Yue Wang Li Zhen!"

"I have heard of this list before, and I know that many people were deceived by the King of Yue and brought to Xiangyang without knowing it."

"Well... I know this, but the hateful traitor Liu Jin used that list to coerce the participants into rebellion."

Outside the Guanyin Temple.

Wu Sansi was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.

"Did something happen in there?"

"Why hasn't it come out yet?!"

"General Huan, would you like to go up and knock on the door? His Majesty's safety is the most important!"

Wu Chengsi glanced coldly at Huan Bin, who was about to knock on the door, and said in a cold voice:

"Her Majesty has her own things to do. Don't disturb Her Majesty. Besides, if Her Majesty gets into trouble, how could the abbot not ask for help?"

"Don't add more trouble to yourself at this time. Think twice. You should learn from me and live a peaceful life."

"Cunxi, is that what I said?"

Wu Chengsi seemed to have taken the wrong medicine today, and he kept mentioning Li Cunxi.

With two helpless and awkward laughs, Li Cunxi bowed to the heavens.

"Your Majesty is so powerful, who dares to hurt you?"

Inside the Guanyin Hall.

Wu Zetian talked about how Liu Jin used the list to force those present to join the rebellion.

It's rare that I felt a trace of anger.

Di Renjie's face also looked a little ugly.

A list was not actually a big problem, but the list was in the hands of someone with ulterior motives, and Wu Zetian was not the emperor at the time and was eager to establish her authority, so this became a problem.

You are not a traitor, why are you on the list?

Since you are on the list, will I, Wu Zetian, kill you when I find out?

of course!

This is something that doesn't require any thought!

This is what Wu Zetian could do back then.

Therefore, the participants were horrified by Wu Zetian's cruelty and bloodthirsty nature, and feared that their homes would be confiscated and their families would be exterminated. Although they knew that Liu Jin was ruthless and this plan was extremely vicious, they had no choice but to take a gamble and follow King Li Zhen of Yue in raising an army when they were left with no other options!

What they are fighting for is not necessarily the Li Tang dynasty, but also the life and death of the family!

Thus, the Rebellion of King Yue began in full swing!

Within a very short period of time, the rebellion of King Yue was put down, and Liu Jin, a military officer, escaped by chance.

It is unknown whether this man was working for the Li Tang dynasty or not. He fled everywhere and actually relied on his own strength, using intimidation and inducement to connect with another wave of rebels!

This wave of rebels was led by Li Yuangui, the fourteenth son of Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan and Prince of Huo, who rebelled.

Of course, it didn't work.

Liu Jin ran away again!

……

Listen to the story.

Di Renjie's face became heavy.

"This list is a disaster, Your Majesty."

"That's true. Three years ago, when I demoted you to Pengze County in Jiangzhou, Liu Jin was captured in Youzhou and escorted back to the capital by the head of the Inner Guards. However, when he was imprisoned in the Tianlao, in less than two months, more than a dozen waves of rebels came to rescue him!"

Wu Zetian closed her eyes.

He had cleared out many of the Li clan's descendants, but the traitors that emerged in the few months three years ago were truly hateful and unexpected.

They were a group of well-organized and disciplined...traitors!

It's no worse than the army!

Wu Zetian had no choice but to execute Liu Jin. On the day of execution, she replaced Liu Jin with a scapegoat.

Liu Jin was secretly transferred to an inconspicuous earthen kiln outside Chang'an City.

Wu Zetian was sure that no one would be able to find that place, and even if someone did, she was not afraid, because she had also asked Hu Jinghui, the General of the Thousand Oxen Guards, to lead the guards to guard it.

The story ends here.

Because Di Renjie already understood.

"Your Majesty, I understand now. This fake Turkic delegation came here just to rescue Liu Jin!"

"what?"

Di Renjie took out the document from his wide sleeves and handed it to Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian took it and examined it carefully, her expression becoming increasingly ugly.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say but I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"What can't be said between you and me? This is not an ordinary period, and I still need you to find out the truth for me."

"I'm afraid that after I finish speaking, His Majesty will be so angry that he will send me back to Pengze County in Jiangzhou to serve as the county magistrate."

"If I drive you away, who in the court should I rely on to investigate the case?"

"The King of Wei is truly a man of great talent!"

"If he really wants to investigate the case, I don't have to worry about it now. He would rather watch the Western beauties striptease in the mansion... Come to think of it, he came when Cunxi entered the palace a few days ago, and before leaving, he took Cunxi back to the Prince of Wei's mansion to watch the Western beauties striptease."

Wu Zetian spoke in a flat tone.

She knew Wu Chengsi's character very well.

He would only kill those descendants of the Li family who posed a threat to the Wu family, and Li Cunxi was not among those descendants of the Li family he killed.

This is also the reason why the very contradictory Wu Chengsi could happily invite Li Cunxi to watch a striptease after killing the descendants of the Li family.

"This, I also heard about it when I was investigating the case these two days, but because I was investigating the case in secret, I did not teach Cunxi."

"What's there to teach or not? If Cunxi wants to be close to Chengsi, then let them be close. It's not a big deal." Wu Zetian waved her hands impatiently, "Okay, tell me what you wanted to say just now."

Di Renjie pursed his lips and said, "There is a traitor in the court."

"Traitor?"

"The itinerary of the Turkic envoys, Liu Jin's secret kiln, and my return to Beijing by imperial decree are all such secrets. If there were no traitors, how could the other party know about them?"

Wu Zetian nodded in agreement.

Sure enough, it was exactly the same as my guess.

But who could be the traitor beside him?

The General Huan Bin of the Qianniu Guard who accompanied the king?

Hu Jinghui, the favored General of the Imperial Guards?

Zhang Jianzhi, the minister who assisted the king?

Or is it his nephew, Prince of Liang Wu Sansi?

Or...is it the King of Wei, Wu Chengsi, who has been staying at home and unwilling to go out?

Or...the palace is full of eunuchs, palace maids, and female officials!

Princess Taiping!

These people all seem possible.

The reason is actually very simple. These people are either familiar with these things, or they covet Wu Zetian's position, or they are undercover agents planted by others, or they are determined to usurp the throne!

All of the above are possible, and there is no way to focus on one person.

Wu Zetian's mind raced, and she said quickly:

"It's urgent, Huaiying, you need to solve the case as soon as possible and severely punish all the murderers! If the two countries go to war, the people on the border will suffer and the people will be displaced. It will be another shocking catastrophe!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I have a plan, but I need Your Majesty's help."

"What's the matter?"
