Chapter 108: Dali Temple's Secret Decree Solves the Strange Case
This has not yet been ascertained, and it is precisely because of this that Wei Chen dared to ask the two saints for some time in the court, and at the same time, he was afraid that someone would leak the news, so he made this decision, not intentionally concealing the truth, but also hoping that the queen of heaven would atone for his sins. ”
Di Renjie knelt in the hall and told the actual situation, as the saying goes, "A companion is like a tiger", and at this moment, he fully understood this from Wu Zetian's body.
"You, you are worthy of being the smartest person in Datang, and your mind is really bright. It's just that this matter is very important, and this palace always feels that it is not as simple as it seems. In fact, I have seen your intentions in the court today, but after all, the words of this palace have been exported, within a month, you Dali Temple must give an explanation, don't let this palace down!"
seems to be a sentence of grace and power, but it seems to have a different taste when it comes out of the mouth of the queen, maybe it is really because of her beauty, or Di Renjie has been with her for a long time, so he naturally has some tacit understanding.
If there is nothing else to do with the queen of heaven, then Weichen will retire for the time being. ”
Di Renjie, who was "plopping, plopping" in his heart, didn't even dare to look up at Empress Wu when he said this, and because he had been so controlling it for a long time, his face was suddenly flushed.
"Well, step aside, it just so happens that this palace is also a little tired. Remember, you must find out who is behind it within a month!"
Seeing Di Renjie's embarrassed appearance of hurriedly withdrawing from the palace, Wu Zetian's heart was very happy, but then she thought about it again, now that there are traitors in the court, there must be someone who wants to take the opportunity to do something unspeakable. The stakes are big, and it seems that there will be many things to rely on in the future to rely on this somewhat lovely Dali Temple.
Di Renjie, who fled in a panic, finally came to the official road, first calmed his breath for a while, and then took the reins from the guards next to him, flew on his horse, and went straight to Dali Temple all the way.
"Your Excellency, are you back?"
It was the guard on duty outside the gate of Dali Temple who spoke, and he saw a fast horse from afar, coming from the dust, and he knew without asking, and he must have come back with this fiery style of acting in a hurry.
Sure enough, when the horse stopped at the door, it was not the disgraced Di Renjie!
"Well, you quickly go and summon the official positions of Dali Temple and above to come to the main hall to discuss matters. ”
The guards on duty got the order, and hurriedly went in at a trotting speed to report one by one. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Di Renjie first washed his face, then changed into civilian clothes, and called someone to make a pot of tea, and then rushed to the direction of the main hall.
As soon as he stepped in with his front feet, the group of people inside asked him questions as if they had exploded, and the head of Master Di, who had never liked noise, was big.
"Okay, shut up! ”
Seeing that the adults didn't seem to be in a good mood when they came back from the court today, everyone made a tacit look at each other, and they were silent.
Fortunately, Di Renjie is used to such naughty subordinates, if he changes to someone else, he will have to explode on the spot. But play is playing, trouble is trouble, and the business of the court can not be delayed.
It's time to teach them a lesson, thinking of this, Di Renjie pretended to be angry and slapped the table and said, "What's the matter, you're all dumb? Why don't you see such an active person in investigating cases on weekdays? On the contrary, what's the use of talking about these parents all day long?"
"My lord, don't be angry yet! I've heard rumors from outside the world recently, all of which say that there is an imbalance between yin and yang in the DPRK and China, and there will be a great calamity coming, so I guess this time I summoned you to investigate this matter, right?"
As the saying goes, "there are smart people everywhere", and it has to be said that Lin Lang, the young man of Dali Temple, saw that the situation was not right, and immediately changed his words to control the topic, and stabilized the situation with only one person's strength, which attracted other colleagues to secretly pick a big finger for him underneath.
"Nonsense! How can such strange and chaotic words be what you group of officials should say? How is the investigation of the case of the murder of the court officials one after another? The queen of heaven has a decree that the murderer must be found within one month of the Dali Temple, otherwise it will ...... You all get the idea. ”
In this case, Di Renjie chose to go straight to the point and throw a bombshell to these boys, one can quickly deter their stubborn temperament, and the other can let everyone get straight to the topic and actively discuss, in order to summarize a decent plan faster in a short time.
Sure enough, it worked wonders under pressure. As soon as the words of "investigating the case within a time limit" came out, the officials of Dali Temple changed their previous state and immediately became serious, and reported the doubts and clues in their minds to Di Renjie one by one.
"Lord Qiqi, according to my investigation, the four ministers of the court who were killed before were all assassinated and killed in their bedrooms at night. Judging from the modus operandi of the murderers, they are all strong martial arts and well-trained. ”
At this time, the person who spoke was the young man of Dali Temple, Qirui, who had always been meticulous in the investigation of the case, and he was quite appreciated by Di Renjie.
"Your Excellency, I have a clue here. According to Xia Guan's previous friends in the rivers and lakes, there is a full-time assassination organization in the martial arts, called 'Flying Star Pavilion', and this matter may not be related to them. ”
After Chery finished speaking, an eight-foot-tall yellow-faced man picked up the topic and continued to report. As the top three masters of Dali Temple's martial arts, there was a heroic spirit between his eyebrows, which made everyone present except Di Renjie respect him for three points.
"My lord, recently, an informant reported that a group of suspicious Fanbang merchants suddenly appeared in the imperial city, and from their gestures, it can be seen that everyone has martial arts, and they must not be good. ”
Seeing that the two of them said everything they could, Mo Ruqi, who had always regarded himself as "Bai Xiaosheng", was not willing to let others go, so he brought out the clues provided by the informant he spent a lot of money on cultivation on weekdays and reported it to the adults.
"Well, good, these are very useful clues. Hey, by the way, why didn't you see Bai Shaoqing after talking about it for so long?"
Due to the rush of the discussion just now, the convening was not ordered before, and it was not until this time that Di Renjie found that there was a key person missing the business proposal.
"Well, Bai Ran Shaoqing said early in the morning that he had made a major discovery in this case, so he rode out of the city alone to investigate, and as for why he hasn't come back to this situation, his subordinates don't know. ”
Liu Yiran, who has always had a good personal relationship with Bai Ran, replied for his brother on the side. He is also the armed force of Dali Temple, and he and the yellow-faced man and Bai Ran just now often get together in private to learn martial arts, and they have benefited a lot.
