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

In the Ganlu Palace.

When Xiao Qingfang rushed back.

Wu Zetian had finished talking with Wang Zhiyuan and sent Huang Shengyan to see Wang Zhiyuan off.

"Your Majesty, I have been ordered to escort His Royal Highness Prince Liang back to his palace. When we are done, I will send the inner guards to keep an eye on Prince Liang's residence and wait for your Majesty's orders."

"You did a great job, Qingfang. There are only a few people in the court that I can trust. I feel relieved to have you by my side."

"I am willing to go through fire and water for your majesty!"

"Why would I let you go through fire and water, Qingfang? I just feel that everyone in the government and the country is rebellious against me!"

"Your Majesty, the King of Wei has great talent, why not use it?"

"Don't I know that the King of Wei is a talented person? However, the King of Wei is still my trump card until now. I will never use this trump card easily unless it is absolutely necessary... Moreover, this trump card cannot be used easily. If I want to use him, it depends on his mood!!"

When talking about her most capable nephew, the prime minister Wu Chengsi, Prince of Wei, Wu Zetian became furious.

This nephew has plenty of abilities and means, but he just isn't willing to do anything.

If Wu Chengsi had said to Wu Zetian something like "Aunt is also a mother" or "I also want to be the crown prince", Wu Zetian would not have had to worry so much about the devastating blow that the Wu family would face a hundred years later.

But now everything is moving in the right direction.

When Huang Guogong's son Li Cunxi came to the court, Wu Chengsi was also happy to see him. Although he didn't do anything practical, it was still a presence.

This also confirmed Wu Zetian's idea of ​​promoting Li Cunxi. If using a prime minister Li Cunxi could exchange for an emperor Wu Chengsi...

Wu Zetian couldn't help but imagine the scene twenty years later where Wu Chengsi inherited the throne and Li Cunxi was ranked first among all officials!

"That's not bad."

"I am not afraid that the Wu family will be destroyed by the Li Tang royal family a hundred years after me."

Wu Zetian suppressed the thoughts in her mind and turned to Xiao Qingfang, the chief of the Inner Guard Bureau whom she trusted the most.

"Qingfang, not long after you went to see off Prince Liang, I sent Prince Wei and Jianzhi back."

"I thought about it over and over again, and I always felt that something was wrong."

"So I finally figured it out! This traitor in the court is not only my right-hand man, but also has extremely high power and freedom. He even knows what I do on a daily basis."

"So I've got a few people locked in, do you want to know?"

Xiao Qingfang quickly bent down and knelt.

"Your Majesty wants to tell me, and I will listen."

"If your majesty does not want to tell me, I will not listen."

Wu Zetian raised her hand and the smile on her face disappeared.

"Don't you want to know who I suspect, Qingfang?"

"I dare not..."

"It's okay to tell you." Wu Zetian said calmly, "The first is Liang Wang Wu Sansi, the second is Crown Prince Li Xian, and the third one, it's strange to say, I don't know why, I always feel that this person is by my side."

Xiao Qingfang's hair stood on end and he kowtowed repeatedly.

"I would never dare to do such a thing. I hope Your Majesty will understand!"

"I didn't say you. What I wanted to say... was actually too... Never mind, I won't tell you. It's not you anyway. When you arrested Yuan Tiangang, I knew that you were definitely the most loyal subject to me."

……

Walk out of Ganlu Palace.

Xiao Qingfang reached out and touched his back. His shirt beneath the silver armor was already soaked with sweat.

She was really afraid of this old fox Wu Zetian. Just now in Ganlu Palace, Wu Zetian tried to test her several times, but fortunately no clues were discovered.

But it's hard to say, she couldn't confirm whether she had exposed anything at a certain moment.

"No, I have to be more cautious and not let this old fox find out about my problem."

Xiao Qingfang left quickly, and soon, a figure followed secretly.

"Sister, what happened?"

"The old emperor seemed to know that there was something wrong with me, but she wasn't sure if it had anything to do with me."

"Sister, if it's you, I'll just rebel against her. We won't tolerate her bullying!"

"Do you think I don't want to? But it's so difficult to rebel. The old master is still secretly imprisoned. We have to wait at least another two or three years."

Xiao Qingfang gritted her teeth. She must be the one who wanted to rebel the most and had been preparing for it for several years.

Her ultimate goal is to learn the mysterious secrets of Luo River and then replace Yuan Tiangang, and then destroy the Wu Zhou artifact and replace Wu Zetian.

In order to achieve the ultimate goal, Xiao Qingfang spared no effort to develop the snake spirit.

It can be said that the current growth of the Snake Spirit is all thanks to Xiao Qingfang, but what does it matter if the Snake Spirit grows stronger?

Now all the snake spirits are headed by their old master Yuan Tiangang. Even the leader of the six snake heads, Shining Spirit Kui Wenzhong, does not listen to him.

Fortunately, the other snake heads were one of our own, otherwise Xiao Qingfang would have been angry to death sooner or later.

"Overthrowing the Wu Zhou Dynasty is not something that can be done overnight. We have endured it for several years, but that doesn't mean we can't continue to endure it!"

"As long as Wu is in power, we will never give up on overthrowing her country!"

"Let's go back home and have a good night's rest. Tomorrow will be another bright and busy day!"

……

Bingzhou, Taiyuan!

It's sunny and the weather is nice.

Li Cunxi ordered Qiao Tai to move the recliner outside, and ate a pear while listening to Ma Rong reading to him.

It is not easy to find a scholar to read to you these days. Fortunately, there is Ma Rong, an outlier among the heroes of the green forest!

It is well known to everyone that if a bandit has a little culture, some basic common sense, and knows that killing is against the law, there is a great probability that he will choose to quit the banditry.

But Ma Rong was different. The reason he became a bandit was because he read too much. He felt that the current court was not good, so he gave up writing and became a bandit.

After a certain robbery, this man suddenly felt that being a bandit was not a good thing, so he went to find Di Renjie, thinking about doing things for Di Renjie.

It’s a pity that I didn’t meet Di Renjie, but I met Li Cunxi.

Now, I can be used as a book boy.

"Sir, Sir, why did you fall asleep?"

Ma Rong glanced at Li Cunxi and found that Li Cunxi had closed his eyes. His slight breathing and saliva at the corners of his mouth were enough to prove that he was asleep.

"Brother, bring a blanket to the young master."

Ma Rong gave instructions to Qiao Tai without even turning his head.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

"No need, your voices are as loud as thunder, why don't you lower them down?"

Li Cunxi spoke up to stop Qiao Tai and narrowed his eyes.

I ate half of the pear in my hand and had no appetite for the remaining half.

"Is this the first day I've pretended to be sick?"

"My Lord, it's the fifth day."

"It's the fifth day. Time flies by so fast. Every day I just eat and sleep, or watch you two sparring here."

"Sir, do you want to go out?"

"No, I was just thinking, where is my uncle now?"

Li Cunxi leaned back.

Judging from the time, Uncle Di Renjie should be outside Youzhou City by now, right?
