The Heavens Begin with Detective Di Renjie

Chapter 90 The Dust Settles
"If the old minister's guess is correct, Di Chun should have fallen into the hands of His Highness."

Di Renjie looked at Shen Youzhi and sighed.

Perhaps it was Di Chun who was stopped by Shen Youzhi on the way to deliver the letter to Wang Xiaojie.

Shen Youzhi robbed Di Chun of the secret decree, and King An used this as a proof to lead people to control the crown prince's womb.

No, no, I'm afraid even the entire god has already
Without Di Chun's imperial decree of "doing things cheaply", even if King An had private soldiers in his hands, he would never have been able to lead the guards into the Crown Prince's womb in such a grand manner.

The only possibility is that he used that imperial decree to disarm or even replace all the defensive forces in the key areas of Gyeonggi with his own soldiers and horses.

With the imperial decree of "doing things cheaply" given by the emperor, King An's subordinates can travel unimpeded in the capital of the gods, and it will take less than half an hour to control the entire capital city!
just
It's just that this is really too coincidental and too deliberate.

It was as if he was preparing for Di Renjie, the emperor's secret decree of power, and all of today's events!
Shen Youzhi has been dormant for seven years, is it because of a "future" snake spirit case, for that "future" secret decree?
Di Renjie couldn't figure out why Wang An had been living in Changzhou for a long time, why he was so clear about his plans, Princess Taiping and even the snake spirit.

Taking a step back, even if Wang An is well-informed and can know these inside stories, can he still be able to predict the future, even if it is today seven years ago?What if the emperor would make the secret decree of power reaching the heavens?
So he sent Shen Youzhi, the secret whistle seven years ago?

How is this possible? !

Such an unbelievable thing, even as quick as Di Renjie, still can't figure out the reason behind it.

Of course he would not have thought of it, not seven years ago, Shen Youzhi had already thought of today more than ten years ago.

This is not because of Di Renjie's lack of resourcefulness, but because things are beyond his understanding.

No matter how smart he is, he never imagined that there would be such weird and bizarre things as "traveling through time and space" in the world.

Just like people in the Tang Dynasty never imagined that there would be such a developed technological civilization after thousands of years.

This is the so-called historical limitation.

Di Renjie's conjecture was not wrong. The reason why Shen Youzhi's soldiers and horses were able to control the entire Shendu so easily was the secret decree of "doing things cheaply" bestowed by Wu Zetian to Di Renjie.

With this decree, no matter what God does, there is no need to report in advance, and decisions can be made immediately.

Therefore, from entering the capital of God, to replacing the defense in the imperial city, to completely controlling the capital, all the troops under his command were bloodless.

The defenders who were suddenly "changed defenses" never imagined that the "secret decree" written by the emperor himself would fall into the hands of others, and naturally they did not dare to violate the "sacred will".

It was also this imperial decree that made Shen Youzhi come true, helping him to easily control the entire capital of God, holding the life and death of all royal families and ministers in his own hands.

For Shen Youzhi, as long as he controls the capital city, the world is already in his pocket!
Once everything in Shendu is completed, his base Changzhou and the surrounding ten government offices, as well as the secret sentries on the front line from Changzhou to Luoyang, will rise up in response, announcing that they will follow King An and restore Li Tang Sheji.

In this way, both inside and outside, the world can be settled!
If it were someone else, even if he was as respected as Di Renjie, doing so would be tantamount to rebellion.

A courtier builds himself on loyalty and righteousness. Once he makes a mess, he loses his foundation. No matter how high his prestige is, he will collapse in an instant and be cast aside by the people of the world.

Unless the dynasty is exhausted and the people of the world are in dire straits, it is absolutely impossible for the courtiers to rebel.

But Shen Youzhi is different, he is a descendant of Li Tang, great-great-grandson of Emperor Taizong, from a legal point of view, he is qualified to be on the throne.

As for the order of succession, it depends on how to calculate——

If Wu Zetian took the initiative to return power to the Li family, it would be tantamount to admitting that Wu Zhou inherited from Gaozong's line, and Li Xian and Li Dan belonged to Gaozong's line in the first place.

However, if one thinks that Wu Zhou interrupted the Li dynasty like Wang Mang usurping the Han, then the order should be counted from Taizong’s lineage, and Shen Youzhi’s behavior is to set things right, to get rid of Wang Mang and continue the Great Han Kingdom with Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu in the past Zuo is generally the same.

In addition to these legal issues, the more important point is: all the blood of the royal family in Shendu, as well as the wealth and life of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, are still in the hands of Shen Youzhi!
How they should choose, needless to say.

Rules are rules, and the bottom line is the bottom line.

As long as the bottom line is not broken, the rules can always be adjusted flexibly.

What's more, Shen Youzhi is also a descendant of Emperor Taizong's direct line, and now he controls the important capital of the capital. It is not a matter of heaven and earth to admit the legitimacy of his accession to the throne.

Of course, in the final analysis, the key to everything is the support of the people.

People's hearts are in Li Tang, so the change of Shen Youzhi's seizure of the throne will not cause an uproar in the world.

The people all over the world recognized the mighty Li Tang, not Wu Zhou.

Because of this, even though the Li-Tang faction in the court was suppressed and purged countless times by Wu Zetian, it still continued to grow.

Wu Zetian killed one, but recruited another group, so he couldn't kill them all.

In order to recover Li Tang, countless courtiers risked their lives like Li Zhaode to ask the emperor to return to the crown prince, and even like Li Gui, they generously died in order to keep Li Xian's crown prince.

Now finally there is a royal family of the Li family who can stand up and raise their arms high, holding high the banner of Futang, and those Li Tang sects are naturally eager to welcome them.

The situation behind this is intricate and complicated, but Di Renjie can figure it out in an instant, it is indeed like lightning, unparalleled in the world.

Shen Youzhi also couldn't help admiring: "Old man Di Ge has a quick mind, and he can sort out the ins and outs behind it in such a short period of time, it's really amazing!"

Ordinary people may not be able to quickly sort out the cause and effect even if they listen to someone else's personal narration, but Di Renjie only connected everything in a moment after he appeared. This meticulous thinking is really beyond ordinary people!

If I hadn't seized the opportunity in everything, plus more than ten years of scrutiny and planning, I really couldn't fool Di Renjie this time!
In other words, relying on Shen Youzhi's great advantage of foresight and 20 years of hard work for the final sword, Di Renjie made a wrong judgment, which shows his amazing mind.

You know, until the last step, Shen Youzhi has never revealed his purpose, and has been quietly helping Di Renjie solve the outstanding case.

Such a person who has no flaws, even if he is as smart as Di Renjie, has no reason to doubt.

Just like no one would unreasonably doubt their old friends who have known each other for many years.

Now, Di Renjie figured it out, but the other people in the room were still in the fog, unable to understand what was going on.
