Chapter 0073: Finding Suspicions
Just an hour after Li Zhen took office, Di Renjie was sent in time, and under Sun Li's deliberate arrangement, Di Renjie was sent to the E-shaped cell, which is the prison under Li Zhen's jurisdiction.
Di Renjie was tortured and interrogated last night, he was beaten all over his body, and he was shackled heavily on his hands and feet.
'Bang!' the heavy iron door slammed shut, and the prison became dark again.
Li Zhen helped Di Renjie slowly walk down the steps, step by step towards the depths of the cell, and the prisoners in the cells on both sides of the cell leaned on the iron fence to watch the excitement, and the shackles knocked on the iron fence rattling.
"It's Di Xiangguo!"
Someone exclaimed, "Oh my God! Di Xiangguo has also been arrested." ”
Some people also laughed and shouted: "Di Renjie, I didn't expect you to have today!"
Di Renjie just walked expressionlessly, his mind blank from the exhaustion of a sleepless night and the sharp pain of various wounds, and he let the jailer help him into the cell.
"Just this one!"
Li Zhen walked to the last cell, turned back to the jailer and said, "Open!"
"Boss, there is no one in the cell opposite, why don't you send him to the cell opposite?" said the jailer.
"! The cell is going to be full soon, open it quickly. ”
The jailer was so frightened that he didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly opened the iron door, Li Zhen pushed open the iron door and helped Di Renjie in, he gave Jiu Zhi a look, Jiu Zhi hurriedly stepped forward to help Di Renjie lie down slowly, "Old man, are you okay?"
"It's okay, thank you!" Di Renjie lay down in pain.
Li Zhen instructed the jailer again, "Bring some wine and wound medicine, go quickly!"
The jailer rushed away, and Li Zhen saw that there was no one left and right, so he took out a few flying knives from his waist and handed them to Jiuzhi, "Hide them first!"
Jiu Zhi took the flying knife and hid it in a brick crack where he had just appeared, at this time, Li Zhen smiled at Di Renjie and said, "Does Xiangguo still remember the juniors?"
Di Renjie lay down, which made him feel a lot more comfortable, and his mind gradually cleared up, he looked at Li Zhen, maybe it was because of the light, but he didn't recognize it.
"You are"
"Two days ago, Miss Yan took the younger generation to meet Xiangguo, and Xiangguo praised me as a Dunhuang righteous man, did Xiangguo forget it?"
"It's you!"
Di Renjie suddenly remembered that a few days ago, his daughter brought a young man to see him, and he gave him a pen, which turned out to be the person in front of him.
"Why are you a jailer?" Di Renjie couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw him wearing a jailer's soap suit.
Li Zhen laughed, "The younger generation is specially here to protect Xiangguo, I have a friendship with Chengsun Li of Dali Temple, he specially arranged for me to come in, and the person who is in the same cell as Xiangguo is also my brother, Xiangguo rest assured!"
Di Renjie realized that he was grateful and relieved in his heart, in fact, he was also worried that someone would secretly get rid of him, if there was someone in prison to protect him, and he could pass on the news for himself, it would be much better.
"Hey, thank you for the trouble!"
Di Renjie's heart was put down, he was also exhausted, closed his eyes, and soon fell asleep.
At this moment, the jailer rushed to the scene and said in a low voice: "Boss, Zuo Taichung is here!"
Zuo Taichung Cheng is Lai Junchen, Li Zhen was startled, his mind turned sharply, he pointed to the wine, and ordered the jailer: "Send him to the next cell immediately!"
Li Zhen reacted very quickly, if Lai Junchen saw Di Renjie and his roommates, he would inevitably interrogate him, since Junchen's shrewdness, it is very likely that there will be flaws, and he must turn the fat man away first.
Li Zhen turned around and walked towards the gate, and after a while, Zuo Taichung Chenglai Junchen walked quickly to the front of the prison accompanied by Dali Temple Chengsun Li and Prison Cheng Wang Deshou.
Lai Junchen is about thirty years old, tall, with a thin face, a shrewd and capable face, he is also a strong martial artist, wearing a sword at his waist, and his slender fingers are extremely powerful.
Li Zhen hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down on one knee, "See Zhongcheng!"
Li Zhen is just a jailer, his status is extremely low, and Lai Junchen will not take a little person like him in his eyes, Lai Junchen asked coldly: "How is Di Renjie?"
"Qi Yu Zhongcheng, the prisoner has just been imprisoned!"
"Take me to see it. ”
Li Zhen hurriedly led the way in front, and took Lai Junchen to the innermost cell, but the prison in the back, Wang Deshou, was the director of Dali Temple, he had never seen Li Zhen, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart, wasn't Li Changsi in charge of the E-shaped prison? Who is this young man?
He was just about to ask, but Sun Li next to him smiled and said, "There is something important to ask about the prisoner in Zhongcheng, let's avoid it first!"
Lai Junchen turned around and nodded approvingly to Sun Li, and under Li Zhen's guidance, he walked towards the innermost cell.
At this time, a jailer whispered to Wang Deshou: "In the past two days, Li Changhe's asthma has been committed again, and he plans to let his nephew replace him, and Sun Yuanjun knows about it." ”
"Oh!"
Wang Deshou glanced back at Sun Li, and then stopped talking.
Before Lai Junchen came to the cell, Jiuzhi had been transferred to the next door, and Di Renjie was the only one in the cell, who seemed to be sleeping soundly, and there was a slight snoring sound.
"Sleep well!"
Lai Junchen sneered, "Wake him up!"
Li Zhen gave the jailer a look, the jailer hurriedly opened the cell, Li Zhen walked into the cell, shook Di Renjie awake, and whispered to him: "Di Xiang, Zuo Taichung is here!"
Di Renjie slowly opened his eyes, Li Zhen helped him sit up, exited the cell again, and locked the iron door.
Lai Junchen asked Li Zhen to retreat, and then said slowly: "Di Xiangguo, I don't want to wronged you so much, but the saint wants me to check your comrades, I have no choice, anyway, you can't escape the capital crime of assassinating the saint, but I can save your family, as long as you honestly explain, who are the same party, I can save your family's life." ”
"Who do you want me to confess?" Di Renjie leaned against the stone wall and asked coldly.
Lai Junchen wanted to go into the cell to tell him, but the iron door had been locked, and he couldn't enter the cell, so Lai Junchen had to take out a note from his belt, crumple it into a ball, and bounce it into the cell.
"The list has been given to you, I will give you three days to think about it, if I don't get a confession after three days, then don't blame me for being ruthless. ”
After speaking, Lai Junchen snorted heavily, turned around and left, and he instructed Li Zhen again, "Heal him, just say my order, no one is allowed to visit him." ”
"The villain understands!"
Lai Junchen patted him on the shoulder and walked away quickly.
After a few people left, Li Zhen transferred Jiuzhi back to Di Renjie's cell, and removed the shackles on his hands and feet, he wiped Di Renjie's wounds with wine, and gave him medicine, which made Di Renjie convulsive for a while.
"Di Xiangguo, who does Lai Junchen want you to accuse?" Li Zhen asked in a low voice.
Di Renjie sighed slightly, "He asked me to accuse Ren Zhigu, Pei Xingben, Cui Xuanli, Lu Xian, Wei Yuanzhong, and Li Sizhen, these are all people from the imperial heir line, it seems that someone wants to attack the imperial heir." ”
The emperor's heir is Li Dan, that's not something he Li Zhen can ask about, he just wants to save Di Renjie's life, and he asked in a low voice: "Does Di Xiang need the juniors to do anything?"
Di Renjie shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I was framed, I heard that the evidence is conclusive, and the high monk Yunxuan died in front of the Son of Heaven, what else can I do?"
"Since it is a frame-up, there are always flaws, Di Xiangguo does not go to track down the real culprit, and sees the Di family being wiped out? ”
The last sentence shocked Di Renjie, and he grabbed Li Zhen's hand, "You're right, there is indeed a problem here, but I have no one to talk about." ”
Li Zhen said softly: "If Di Xiang can trust the juniors, he will sue me, and the juniors are willing to run for Di Xiang." ”
Di Renjie couldn't trust Li Zhen, after all, his daughter hadn't known him for a long time, but Di Renjie had the ability to recognize people.
He knew that the person who did not hesitate to die for the country would never be a traitor, and the junior in front of him might really be the only person he could rely on.
Di Renjie said in a low voice: "I presented a volume of Ouyang Xun's Buddhist scriptures to the saint yesterday, but I didn't expect it to be a trap.
There is a flaw in this, the minister's offerings must be strictly inspected when entering the palace, if it is the poison I smeared, then the person who inspected it will also be unable to escape death, if the person who checks is fine, it means that the Buddhist scriptures are poisoned after entering the palace, and I can clear up the relationship. ”
Li Zhen pondered for a moment and asked, "Is Ouyang Xun's authentic work in the collection of Di Xiang's family, or did someone deliberately give it to Xiangguo?"
Di Renjie understood what Li Zhen meant, this was indeed a key issue, he sighed and said: "I asked Yan'er to buy the Buddhist scriptures from Liangzhou, now think about it, how can there be such a good thing, someone really laid a trap."
However, the person who told me that there was Ouyang Xun in Liangzhou was my best friend for many years, and he would not harm me, someone should have taken advantage of him, and I didn't say that I was afraid of implicating him. ”
Li Zhen nodded, and asked again: "The younger generation thinks that the other party will not leave loopholes, and the person who examines the Buddhist scriptures will inevitably die, and this case has to start with the motive, such as who wants to kill Di Xiang the most, and has the ability to do tricks in the palace." ”
Di Renjie smiled, "You are indeed very discerning, you can always see the depths of the water, in fact, I know who harmed me." ”
"Wu Chenghe, right!" Li Zhen said lightly.
Di Renjie glanced at Li Zhen in surprise, how could he guess that he thought of his daughter, and immediately realized that it must have been his daughter who sued him for that incident.
Di Renjie immediately shook his head, "What can you do if you know? Without any evidence, that is, framing King Wei will only add to the crime." ”
"Wait!"
Li Zhen suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly asked: "Just now Di Xiang said that the senior monk Yunxuan was poisoned after touching the Buddhist scriptures, is that so?"
"They sued me like this, it should be so! Buddhist scriptures cannot be eaten or drunk, and they will never be poisoned from the mouth. ”
Li Zhen had countless thoughts in his heart, and he remembered an incident he had heard in Gaochang, and this incident happened to be related to Lan Zhenyu.
He hurriedly said: "The junior may be able to find a little clue, but I can't be sure, I'll go out now, and I'll let the jailer take care of you." ”
Di Renjie nodded, "You go! In three days, I won't have anything, someone is still waiting for me to confess!"
Having said that, Li Zhen didn't dare to be careless, in case Junchen fabricated Di Renjie's confession and killed people again, it was completely possible.
He pulled Jiuzhi aside and told him repeatedly: "You can't be careless, you have to protect Di Xiangguo, if someone comes to assassinate, don't be soft." ”
Jiuzhi also knew that he was burdened with a heavy burden on his shoulders, and said with a smile: "Fat man, I am not a vegetarian, I will drink the wine first, I will taste the vegetables first, and I will stop the knife when it comes, Lao Li, you can rest assured to go!"
Li Zhen gave the jailers some money and asked them to buy good wine and food to take care of Di Renjie and Jiuzhi, and he left the prison in a hurry.
