The Heavens Begin with Detective Di Renjie
Chapter 63 The Chongzhou Case
Chapter 63 The Chongzhou Case
Cold comes and summer goes, spring goes and autumn returns.
Two years passed by in a hurry.
After two years of development, Shen Youzhi's power expanded rapidly. Not only did he completely control Changzhou, but even the surrounding government offices also had his cronies.
According to this speed, in another year, he will be able to break through the intelligence network from Changzhou to Shendu, causing news from Shendu to flood to him.
At that time, he will be able to know every move of the emperor and all the officials immediately.
In addition to these, Shen Youzhi's personal armed forces are also developing rapidly, with a scale of nearly ten thousand people.
It can be said that Shen Youzhi's power in Changzhou now is greater than King Ying's power in Yangzhou back then.
The difference is that Shen Youzhi doesn't need to oppress the people, nor does he need to accept tasks like the Iron Hands to earn silver taels.
Because he already has the huge fund of Yue Wang Treasure.
Of course, such a frightening speed of development was not only due to the treasure of the King of Yue, but also due to Shen Youzhi's status as a royal family with the surname Li.
Wu Zhou's foundation is too shallow, and it is maintained entirely by Wu Zetian's personal prestige and superb political skills.
Speaking of people's hearts, in the hearts of the people in the world, this country still belongs to Li Tang after all.
Because of this, even though Wu Zetian knew that there were so many Li and Tang factions in the court, he had to reuse them.
Because most capable people in the world have their hearts turned to Li Tang.
Di Renjie, Zhang Jianzhi, Yao Chong, Song Jing, etc., these people are all blatant Li Tang faction, but they can still hold high positions in the court.
On the contrary, it is from Wu Zetian's lineage, either her nephew from Wu's lineage, treacherous officials like Lai Junchen and Suo Yuanli, or face-to-face male favorites like Zhang Yizhi.
Obviously, it is impossible for Wu Zetian to govern the world with these people.
She just used these people to balance the power of the Li Tang faction in the court.
When it came time to do practical things, she couldn't do without the Li Tang faction.
This is why Di Renjie chose to compromise.
In addition to considering the stability of the country and the stability of the world, Di Renjie also clearly saw the hope, the hope of Li Tang's restoration of the country.
As long as the people of the world support Li Tang, and as long as the emperor wants to govern the world well, then the power of the Li Tang faction in the court will continue to expand. One day, these people will condense into a huge and unstoppable force to restore Li Tang. Tang artifact!
This is the path Di Renjie chose, and it is also the future he can foresee.
It can be seen from this that who owns the world does not depend on who is sitting in the current position, but on who the people in the world think is qualified to sit on it.
If people in the world don't agree, even if you sit on it now, you will have to let it out sooner or later.
At least for now, Li Tang's appeal is much greater than that of Wu Zhou.
If it is the right time for Princess Taiping to cleanse the inner guards, leaving the inner guards empty, and the geographical location of the treasure of the king of Yue and Changzhou far away from the capital of the gods is the right place, then Li Tang's appeal is the harmony of people.
The weather, the location, the harmony of the people, and Shen Youzhi have all three things, which is why they can rapidly develop such a huge force in two years.
Prince An's Mansion
Piandian
Shen Youzhi looked at his spy network and sphere of influence marked on the map, and nodded in satisfaction.
At this moment, Zhao Xiu walked over quickly.
"My lord, news came from the spies of Shendu that Zhao Wenhui's army mysteriously disappeared in Turkic territory, and Wang Xiaojie defeated Dongxia Shigu!" Zhao Xiu said excitedly.
He really admired the prince's foresight more and more, and he actually calculated everything again!
Just when everyone thought that Wang Xiaojie and Zhao Wenhui had succeeded in attacking Khitan Li Jinzhong, the prince realized that there was a fraud in this matter, and made himself pay attention to the information from Shendu at all times.
Only a few days later, the prince's prophecy came true again!
Could it be that there are really prophets in this world?
Looking at the excited Zhao Xiu, Shen Youzhi also sighed in his heart: The time has come!
The fact of Wang Xiaojie's defeat was exposed, and Di Renjie should be ordered to inspect Chongzhou affairs next.
I also want to take advantage of this time to go to Liuzhou to break into the main altar of the snake spirit!
"Zhao Xiu, this king is going out to attend a big event." Shen Youzhi ordered: "During this period, everything will be dealt with through negotiation between you and Wang Zhili, Zhou He.
Remember, focus on stability and never make rash advances!
If there is something important, please notify me with a carrier pigeon in time. "
Wang Zhili and Zhou He are the governor of Changzhou and joined the army respectively, and they are also the confidantes that Shen Youzhi cultivated step by step.
The two of them and Zhao Xiu have become Shen Youzhi's three most trusted confidants.
Now that I have to leave for a period of time, I naturally have to temporarily hand over the decision-making power to these three people.
Zhao Xiu is in charge of the intelligence network, Wang Zhili is in charge of the officialdom, and Zhou He is in charge of the army. The cooperation of the three is enough to stabilize the situation.
"Yes! Please rest assured, my lord, this subordinate will definitely live up to his trust!"
Zhao Xiu bowed his hands and replied solemnly.
After explaining to Zhao Xiu, Shen Youzhi came to the small building where he retreated again, and began to change his clothes.
This time, he must once again play the role of "Shen Youzhi", a wandering knight-errant.
Half a month later
Liuzhou, Dayang Mountain
Late night
A group of people in purple robes were walking quickly in the deep mountains, as if there was something urgent to do.
This group of people moved neatly and seemed to have received special training, which was quite different from the general entangled gangsters.
There was a woman in the team, dressed in white, especially conspicuous among a group of purple robes, she was obviously the leader of the team.
"Stop!"
The woman raised her hand suddenly, stopping the marching queue.
"Hall Master, what's wrong?" the subordinate asked in puzzlement.
The woman didn't answer, but faced the front with a serious expression, and said coldly: "Come out!"
Before the words fell, a slender man with a sword in his arms slowly came out of the darkness, it was Shen Youzhi.
"Who are you? How dare you block our way?" the purple-robed man under the woman snapped.
Shen Youzhi didn't answer, and continued walking without seeing anything, as if what was blocking him was not a group of gangsters with knives, but a group of grasshoppers.
Seeing this, the woman in white immediately drew out her two sabers, and signaled her subordinates to go and try Shen Youzhi's strength.
All the people under his command nodded, and a dozen of them rushed up together, covering Shen Youzhi's surroundings with water.
Seeing that the situation was in danger, the purple-robed man naturally wanted to seize the opportunity, and a group of people immediately raised their knives and chopped off Shen Youzhi's head.
In the darkness, there was only a sound of "噗", Shen Youzhi's long sword was unsheathed, and then there was a continuous "呵呵" sound, which was the sound of the sword cutting through the flesh, and finally there was the corpse of "咚咚咚" The sound of falling to the ground.
The dozen or so men in purple turned into a pile of corpses in an instant.
What a fast sword!
The leading woman in white was amazed.
The "呲味" sound was continuous from the beginning to the end, indicating that from the time the sword was unsheathed to the time the last person was killed, the sword's momentum had never stopped.
In other words, this person has only made one sword so far!
The woman in white felt terrified in her heart, and she also knew that the other party was not doing well, and she would definitely not be able to escape without a fight.
In an instant, the woman jumped forward, and the two knives in her hands slashed at Shen Youzhi like a rainstorm.
Faced with such a dense saber movement, Shen Youzhi was not in a hurry, and the long sword in his hand struck fast, blocking all the blades.
All of a sudden, there was the sound of "clinking" ironware being handed over, accompanied by bursts of cold light from swords one after another.
Not long after, the two had disassembled more than fifty moves.
Although there was no victory or defeat for a while, the woman in white's fast break and fast attack did not work, she had already lost her momentum, her saber momentum began to slow down, her saber skills gradually became old, and her defeat was undoubtedly revealed.
On the other hand, Shen Youzhi, from the beginning to the end, was not at all impatient, he swayed every move freely, relaxed and freehand, as if he was not fighting with others, but was swaying pen and ink, painting leisurely.
After another thirty strokes, Shen Youzhi's long sword suddenly changed speed, scratching the woman's wrist with lightning speed.
The woman was hit by the sword in both wrists, although the tendons were not injured, but the two swords could no longer be grasped, and they flew away at that time.
Shen Youzhi saw that the woman lost her swords, and the empty door in front of her opened. She immediately turned around and slammed her knee into her lower abdomen, sending her flying a few meters away.
Although this blow couldn't kill her, it was enough to displace her internal organs, making her unable to resist in a short time.
