"That person lives in Nanshi and was my subordinate," Di Renjie continued.

Outside the door, Di Chun had already prepared the carriage, Di Renjie pulled the curtain, boarded the carriage, and instructed Di Chun to walk towards the Taoist workshop.

The Taoist workshop is located on the south bank of Luoshui, next to the middle bridge. During the reign of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, the five elements, divination, divination, and medicine were all gathered in the eastern capital, placed in this workshop, and sent an envoy to inspect it, and it was not allowed to enter or leave. Later, the Taoist workshop gradually became a place where Luoyang craftsmen gathered.

"His name is Li Yuanfang, and he used to play under me. After the old man was released to Ningzhou, Yuan Fang returned to Luoyang," Di Renjie said, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen him for four or five years." ”

Li Rongze followed Di Renjie's carriage, and the two chatted while walking.

"Li Yuanfang must be Di Lao's right-hand man, and he must have something extraordinary." Li Rong said.

"Yuan Fang is the bad handsome of the six doors under Dali Qing." Di Renjie said.

The bad guy is the little official in charge of the investigation and arrest of the imperial court, and the bad guy is their leader.

As for the six gates, it is an organization used by the imperial court to control and deal with the forces of the rivers and lakes, and it is subordinate to Dali Qing, which seems to be of a low rank, but the position is quite important and the power is very large. To some extent, the Six Gates manipulate the rise and fall of the Jianghu Sect.

The reason why Di Renjie can be valued by many wealthy families, and even in awe, is inseparable from his control of the six doors.

After Wu Zetian took control of the government, he would not continue to hand over the six doors to Di Renjie. As a result, Di Renjie was released by the imperial court as the assassin of Ningzhou. The six doors fell into the hands of the Demon Gate, and the current director of the Six Doors is a person in the Demon Gate, Zhou Xing, who was a judge of Dali, and a chess piece of the Demon Gate has long been buried in Dali Temple.

As he spoke, the carriage and horse walked to the Taoist workshop.

The Taoist workshop is not large, half smaller than the ordinary market, and there are many people living in it. There is the best medical center in Luoyang, the best Xiangshi.

"There are a lot of strange people here, and the former Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty has gathered a lot of talents and gathered here." Di Renjie got off the walking path at the gate of the fang.

People come and go in the workshop, lively and lively, although it is dusk, the flow of people is still continuous. There were people wearing Taoist robes and wearing robes.

"It's not easy!" Li Rong said.

Li Rong felt a strong aura from several pedestrians passing by, obviously these people were also masters of martial arts.

What Di Renjie didn't say was that this was not only a gathering place for those high-ranking people, but also a concentration of underground forces such as major gangs and families.

Di Renjie walked in front with ease, and Li Rong led the horse to follow closely.

After a while, Di Renjie walked in front of a butcher shop and stopped.

A butcher stands in the middle of the shop, expertly picking meat with a sharp knife. A sharp knife with a bull's ear flew up and down in the butcher's hand, and in a matter of moments a sheep was clean.

I saw that the mutton bones and meat lying on the table were separated, and a complete skeleton was set aside, and there was no minced meat on it.

"Good knife technique!" Li Rong's eyes lit up, and the dragon sword in the sheath involuntarily let out a clear chirp.

Li Rong was excited, and his true qi vibrated the blade through the scabbard, making a loud sound under the friction.

When the butcher heard the sound of the knife, he looked up at the two people in front of the shop, his eyes swept over and he smiled knowingly.

An extremely ordinary face appeared in front of the two of them, except for the slender figure and slightly taller than ordinary people, this face was so ordinary that it could not be found if it was thrown in the pile.

Li Rong was shocked, and two sharp gazes swept over his body, feeling as if all the secrets on his body had been discovered.

At this time, Li Rong noticed the strangeness of the butcher's eyes, a pair of smart and spiritual eyes, revealing a sharp light.

"Di Gong is back!" The butcher opened his mouth and smiled, revealing a mouthful of neat white teeth.

"Yuan Fang, you've worked hard all these years." Di Renjie stepped forward and said.

"Without Di Gong, there would be no Yuanfang today. Besides, I've been doing well all these years. Li Yuanfang put down the sharp knife, beckoned the two to enter the store, asked the little guy in the store to watch the store, and led the two into the backyard.

"Where did Di Gong come back from Ningzhou?" Li Yuanfang asked as he walked.

"I only returned a month ago," Di Renjie said, "the Divine Capital has changed far more than before!" ”

After Di Renjie returned to Luoyang, he did not immediately get an appointment from the imperial court, so he could only wait for news at home for the time being. He did not go around to find relatives and friends, but closed his door to think deeply, and occasionally walked around the market.

"There have been tremendous changes in the imperial court, and there are also turbulent storms in the rivers and lakes," Li Yuanfang sighed, "Even the Dharma Saint Yin Wencao was defeated at the hands of Tianhuang Wu Youxu and died in the sky." ”

The first castling of the heavenly list, Yin Wencao, who represents the Li Tang royal family, lost to Wu Youxu, the nephew of the Empress Dowager Zetian, is not a reflection of the balance of power between the two sides. Li Tang was defeated, the martial arts family was victorious, and the "dancing phoenix" represented by the martial arts family held their heads high and expanded their power, taking away many of the Li Tang clan's transactions, of course, this also meant another bloody struggle.

Di Renjie frowned, he also knew the news, but what could he stop it?

"Eventful," Di Renjie said slowly.

"Who is this?" Li Yuanfang asked Li Rong.

"Li Rong, the right thousand cavalry envoy, was specially ordered by the imperial court to cooperate with me in investigating the case." Di Renjie replied.

"Brother Li's knife skills must not be bad, you have to learn it well when you find an opportunity." Li Yuanfang smiled at Li Rong.

"Each other," Li Rong replied, "Brother Li's sword technique is a must, and he can't do that for his brother." ”

"Without it, it's just familiar." Li Yuanfang said.

While speaking, Li Yuanfang had already led the two to the main hall and sat down separately.

"Yuan Fang, there is a case to trouble you this time." Di Renjie said.

"Di Gong is for the corpse division case in Nanshi!" Li Yuanfang said, "Those waste servants in Luozhou Mansion are useless. ”

The news of the appearance of a female corpse in Luoyang South City spread throughout the city, making people panic, and Li Yuanfang knew about it.

Li Yuanfang did not mention the six doors, it is said that such a thing requires six doors to come forward, but the current six doors are not what they used to be.

"Well, the Queen Mother personally ordered me to solve the case, and sent the right thousand horsemen to fully assist." Di Renjie said, "At noon, we have gone to Henan County to see the corpse, and the corpse has many scars that cannot be recognized, how about you go and see it?" ”

"Okay," Li Yuanfang said cleanly.

Back then, Li Yuanfang followed Di Renjie to work in Six Doors, cracked many major cases, and arrested many Jiangyang thieves.

"But it's almost dusk, and soon Fang City will be closed, so it's better to stay here for one night before leaving, and we'll go to Henan County early tomorrow morning." Li Yuanfang continued.

"It's good!" Di Renjie replied.

Every day at dusk, all the fang markets in Luoyang City will close the fang gates, the streets are forbidden to pass, and the Jin Wuwei will patrol the streets, catch pedestrians who do not obey the rules of the fang, and they will be punished with canes.

"And where did the murderer commit the murder?" Di Renjie suddenly thought.

Luoyang City has a curfew system in place at night, and pedestrians are not allowed to pass. The murderer may have robbed the victim at night, so he naturally had to avoid Jin Wuwei patrolling the streets, so that the place of the murder and violence would not be too far from the victim's home.

So why did the murderer dump the body in Nanshi? Could it be that the place where the murderer killed is not far from Nanshi?

Several questions entangled in Di Renjie's heart, making him feel troubled for a while.
