Chapter 11 The Old Man Was Used!

Ten minutes later, Zhou He woke up.

Zhou He, who woke up, slowly raised his head, just in time for Di Renjie's slightly anxious eyes. Zhou He hurriedly bowed down and replied in a deep voice, "Guo Lao, forgive the officials for their lack of knowledge, and as far as the current knowledge of the officials is concerned, they have not found tea leaves that look similar to them. ”

Hearing this, Di Renjie slowly straightened up, frowned, and turned back to the seat behind the bookcase.

"If, as Zhou He said, there is no tea in this world that looks similar to this 'everything is over', then this bag of tea sent by the palace eunuch is undoubtedly the tea that the emperor drinks. But there is one thing I don't understand, how can that tea ceremony master have such a big courage to dare to make this tea to the emperor in the palace, isn't he afraid of being noticed, and he will be sent out and exterminate the nine clans? Di Renjie said silently in his heart.

Zhou He looked at Di Renjie, who was deep in thought at the moment, and did not dare to step forward to disturb at all, and then sat on the chair under the signal of Di Chun next to him.

Di Renjie really couldn't understand the Tao, so he shook his head helplessly.

"It seems that this matter is not simple." Di Renjie muttered to himself. Di Renjie finished speaking, quietly raised his head, and just looked at Zhou He's four eyes, Di Renjie smiled hehe, and said, "Lord Zhou, since this 'everything is over' tea, since it is used as a medicine in the palace, you must know it very well." The old man wants to ask you, is this tea directly drunk? ”

When Zhou He heard this, he hurriedly got up, his face was nervous, and he hurriedly said, "How can this be?" This tea must be soaked in a special agent to neutralize its medicinal effects before it can be consumed. Otherwise, the tea aroma emitted by just soaking this tea can make the people around you fall into an illusion. ”

Di Renjie hurriedly pointed to the tea bags on the tea table and asked, "Then you see, are the tea leaves in these tea bags soaked in medicine?" ”

Zhou He shook his head, "This is also the reason why Xia Guan is strange." It stands to reason that this kind of thing, unless it has been soaked in a special medicine, can never be circulated. ”

Di Renjie nodded, and then asked, "Is there a difference between the soaked tea leaves and the unsoaked tea leaves from the outside?" ”

"If you don't brew this tea, you can't detect it from the appearance." Zhou He's deep response.

Di Renjie heard Zhou He's words and immediately smiled.

Zhou He and Di Chun looked at Di Renjie's face at this moment, and their faces were suddenly covered with circles. I don't know what Di Renjie, who is known as the first detective of the Tang Dynasty, is thinking in his heart.

Di Renjie slowly got up, came to the side of the imperial physician Zhou He, smiled and held his hands, and said, "Lord Zhou, the old man took the liberty to invite you to come over tonight and ask about the tea ceremony, you have worked hard." ”

Zhou He was flattered, hurriedly got up, and bowed to Di Renjie.

"Elder Guo, you have been tortured." Zhou He's face was respectful.

Di Renjie paused for a few minutes, looked at Zhou He with straight eyes, and said softly, "You returned to the Tai Hospital, when someone asked about you, do you know how to answer?" ”

Zhou He was stunned for a moment, and after pondering for a few seconds, he hurriedly said, "Xia Guan came to Di Mansion to treat his wife, and Di Guolao did not mention other things to Xia Guan. ”

Hearing this, Di Renjie nodded with satisfaction, turned his head, looked at Di Chun next to him, and said softly, "When you send Lord Zhou back to the hospital, remember to take back the medicine that Lord Zhou prescribed to Mrs. ”

"Yes, sir!" Di Chun bowed in response.

"Guo Lao, if there is nothing wrong, then the lower official will go back to the Tai Hospital and get medicine for his wife?" Zhou He could hear that the reason why he was summoned here by Di Renjie was to ask about the tea, and Mrs. Di was not sick.

Di Renjie smiled slightly and nodded.

After Zhou He bowed to Di Renjie again, he left the study accompanied by Di Chun.

With a "squeak", the door of the study was closed by Di Chun, and Di Renjie was the only one left in the entire study again.

Di Renjie turned around and returned to his seat, speculating in his heart, "It seems that the eunuch who brought the tea was confused with the tea leaves, and sent the 'Everything is Rest' tea that had not been soaked in the potion." ”

But after thinking about it, Di Renjie suddenly had another train of thought in his heart, "Or, maybe the eunuch who delivered the tea was instructed by someone to make a mistake and deliberately sent this tea to attract my attention!" ”

Di Renjie raised his hand, wrapped the bag of tea, got up and put it on the bookcase. He whispered, "Hey... What the hell is the truth? ”

"The eunuch who delivered the tea!?" Di Renjie's heart tightened, and he hurriedly said loudly outside the study, "Yang Kuo, you come in!" ”

As soon as Di Renjie's words fell, the door of the study was pushed open, and Yang Kuo, the head of the top ten armies dressed in guard clothes, walked in with a sharp knife at his waist.

Yang Kuo, who came to the door, stepped forward quickly, came to Di Renjie's side, bowed down, and asked in a deep voice, "Elder Guo, what are your orders?" ”

Di Renjie raised his head and said in a deep voice, "Yang Kuo, have you seen the palace eunuchs who came to deliver tea tonight?" ”

Yang Kuo nodded, and then said, "It was my subordinates who led people to the place where Steward Di was." ”

Di Renjie nodded, and then said, "Tonight, you send other guards to the various exits of the palace, carefully check the vehicles entering and leaving, as well as the pedestrians, be sure to find out the identities of the people entering and exiting, and check the items in the vehicles entering and leaving the palace." ”

Yang Kuo, who had followed Di Renjie for many years, naturally knew Di Renjie's intentions, and hurriedly bowed down to respond, "Yes, Guo Lao." Then he turned and walked out of the study.

Di Renjie looked at Yang Kuo's leaving figure through the window, and said softly, "If it is expected, the eunuch who brought the tea is afraid that he will be more auspicious." Ay... No matter what camp the eunuch belonged to, he had absolutely no chance of survival. ”

"I set up the time that there are two camps in the palace, one is the Wu clan and the other is the Li clan. The emperor issued an order to give me this tea, and the eunuchs in the palace did not dare to resist the decree, and they would definitely send me tea. If that eunuch belonged to the Wu clan's camp, then he would not dare to do anything, and he would bring me the tea soaked in special potions, so as not to make me suspicious. But it is possible that you are in a hurry for a while and take the wrong one. If that eunuch belonged to the Li camp, in order to attract my attention, the people from the Li camp would inevitably take this opportunity to make me understand that the tea given to the emperor was a medicine that could make people forget the pain and suffering for a short time. They know my character, and I will do everything I can to know the benefits of this tea. Then the medicinal effect of this tea, that is, if you take it for a long time, it will make people lose their energy and die in the gradual excitement, and I will know. For the sake of the stability of the country, I was asked to get involved in investigating this matter. Di Renjie said silently in his heart.

"To put it bluntly, people from both camps are using me. One is to use me to stabilize the current dynasty; The other is to use me to influence and even subvert the current dynasty, and return to Li! Di Renjie whispered, and then sat down on the chair slightly decadently.
