Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 320 The Truth of Gossip
Di Renjie looked at Wang Mang.

Wang Mang, who had been an audience for a long time, paused slightly, and said slowly, "My lord, you have asked me who my teacher is more than once before?"

Di Renjie nodded slightly: "Could it be..."

"Not bad!"

Wang Mang nodded: "This mysterious person is also my teacher——Yuan Tiangang"

"what?"

Di Renjie was taken aback: "Yuan Tiangang!"

At this time, Wu Zetian let out a long sigh: "Exactly, he is also my teacher, Yuan Tiangang!"

Di Renjie took two steps back in shock: "Yuan Tiangang?! Qin Tianjian is directing Yuan Tiangang! Is he your teacher?"

Wu Zetian turned around and said, "Exactly. The Zhuguo golden talisman in your hand is the secret evidence that I imprisoned Yuan Tiangang here back then."

Di Renjie gasped: "Yuan Tiangang? But Your Majesty, wasn't this person executed by His Majesty's order more than ten years ago?"

Wu Zetian sighed: "Huaiying, do you know the real reason why I ordered Yuan Tiangang to be executed?"

Di Renjie glanced at Wang Mang and shook his head slightly.

Wu Zetian said: "Yuan Tiangang is proficient in astronomy, geography, numerology, divination and all kinds of heresy and sects. When I was the empress, I relied heavily on him.

This person has participated in all my secret operations. Back then Luohe discovered a mysterious gossip map and wrote it to my official taboo.

This incident shocked the entire court, and the hearts of the world returned. This is how I will successfully ascend the throne in the future. "

Di Renjie said: "That's right. It is said that His Majesty is the reincarnation of Maitreya on the sacred stone and will be the successor to the Datong.

After this incident, many local officials competed to imitate it and presented it to His Majesty. "

Wu Zetian nodded again and again: "Yes, yes."

Di Renjie asked strangely: "But it was a sign from heaven, what has it to do with Yuan Tiangang?"

Wu Zetian gave a wry smile: "What omens from heaven and Maitreya's reincarnation are all fake..."

Di Renjie was stunned, and stared blankly at the two in front of him: "What, fake?"

Although Wang Mang saw a hint of this matter based on his experience in the previous life, there was also a hint of shock on his face.

Wu Zetian nodded: "That is Yuan Tiangang's calculation of the time when the Luohe River flooded and the location of the great whirlpool based on the astronomical calendar.

Then he ordered people to carve the boulder into a tool and sink it into the bottom of the river according to the position of the whirlpool.

Sure enough, at noon a few days later, the water of the Luo River rose sharply, and the whirlpool lifted a Bagua stone out of the water.

The boulder stands on the surface of the river, turning slowly, and the scene is extremely magical.

The people watching on the shore knelt down and worshiped. "

Di Renjie nodded: "This matter has been rumored for a while."

Wu Zetian said: "At that time, the boulder stood above the water for two hours. The princes and ministers and the people who witnessed this were shocked, and they all thought it was a sign from heaven."

Di Renjie looked at Wu Zetian and said in surprise, "This, this was all created by Yuan Tiangang?"

Wu Zetian nodded slightly: "Exactly."

Although he already knew that these things are nothing in modern times, Wang Mang also looked surprised.

Di Renjie was so astonished that he couldn't describe it in words. He was speechless for a moment, and after a long pause, he said: "It turns out that this shocking event turned out to be fake. But His Majesty relied on it to cover up Li Tang's artifact and inspire the Great Zhou Dynasty." Foundation. It seems that this Yuan Tiangang has made great achievements!"

Wu Zetian took a deep breath: "Since then, I have favored him a lot.

However, Yuan Tiangang acted more and more unscrupulously. I warned him several times, but he took credit for it and turned a deaf ear.

Therefore, I decreed to take away his title of loose official.

This matter made him hold a grudge. Once, in Shangyang Palace, he actually said to me, "I can make Your Majesty perfect, but of course I can also destroy His Majesty." '"

Di Renjie raised his eyebrows: "Oh, this thief dares to say such rebellious words, it is considered audacious!"

Wu Zetian nodded: "Yes. At that time, I was shocked when I heard this. Once he spread the truth about the Luohe Divine Stone, where would my dignity be?
Where is the dignity of the court?
What face do I have to face the ministers of the court, what face do I have to face the people of the world?
Those traitors who attempt to rebel will have more opportunities to take advantage of it, and they will definitely use this to make waves. "

Di Renjie sighed, looked at Wang Mang, but didn't speak.

Wang Mang glanced at Wu Zetian, and said to Di Renjie, "My lord wants to ask me why Yuan Tiangang's disciple betrayed him?"

Di Renjie looked at Wang Mang, but didn't speak.

Wang Mang sighed: "My parents were killed by Yuan Tiangang."

Hearing this sentence, Di Renjie understood, and nodded: "This thief and monster are also harming the country and the world, and the crime cannot be punished!"

Wu Zetian sighed, "That's why I strictly ordered the inner guards to keep the secret."

Di Renjie raised his head and asked, "Your Majesty, why don't you get rid of this thief?"

Wu Zetian sighed, "Don't worry, listen to me slowly.

After hearing what he said, I was determined to get rid of him.

But at this time, I received a secret report from the Neiwei Mansion that Yuan Tiangang secretly contacted a group of exiles with ulterior motives and established a secret organization called "Snake Spirit". "

Di Renjie turned pale with shock: "Yes, it was Yuan Tiangang who founded the 'Snake Spirit' organization?"

Wu Zetian nodded: "Exactly."

Di Renjie looked at Wang Mang, and suddenly realized: "I finally understand why Jingyang knows so much about snake spirits!"

Wang Mang said: "Yes, in fact Xiao Qingfang is also Yuan Tiangang's apprentice, and she is still my senior sister!"

Wu Zetian looked at Wang Mang with a half-smile, "Then you should call me Senior Sister?"

Wang Mang hurriedly lowered his head: "I dare not!"

Wu Zetian took a deep breath and did not speak.

Di Renjie took a deep breath: "I said why the 'Snake Spirit' organization is so scheming here to rescue it at any cost, so it turned out to be like this!"

Wu Zetian said: "After receiving the secret report, I immediately ordered Xiao Qingfang, the leader of the House of Internal Guards, to detain Yuan Tiangang and lead the internal guards to suppress the 'Snake Spirit'..."

Di Renjie was stunned: "Xiao Qingfang?"

Wu Zetian nodded: "Exactly. A month later, Xiao Qingfang returned to the court to report that the 'snake spirit' had been completely destroyed, and Nikui gave her the head. At that time, I was very happy, rewarded her heavily, and promoted her to the Imperial Palace Grand Pavilion leader."

Di Renjie let out a long sigh: "Your Majesty, this is truly an outrageous entrustment."

Wu Zetian said: "Yes, I never thought that Xiao Qingfang was actually a member of the 'Snake Spirit' organization! Moreover, he was also Yuan Tiangang's apprentice. It was not until the Chongzhou case that this traitor revealed his true colors."

Di Renjie said: "I think that when Xiao Qingfang was ordered to eliminate the 'Snake Spirit' back then, he must have secretly transferred the 'Snake Spirit' main altar, quietly dormant, and waited to move.

In the past ten years, their power has grown stronger and stronger, and finally caused today's disaster. "

Wang Mang nodded: "Exactly, Your Majesty, my lord, do you still remember Wang Zhiyuan, our national teacher who died back then?"

Wu Zetian and Di Renjie raised their heads: "What do you mean?"

Wang Mang sighed: "The reason why the snake spirit under Xiao Qingfang's command has developed so fast these years is also related to the hidden dragon under Wang Zhiyuan's command back then. Xiao Qingfang took advantage of his position as an internal guard to integrate the remaining forces of the hidden dragon into the snake spirit. Subordinate."

"This traitor!"

Wu Zetian cursed bitterly.

Wang Mang sighed and did not speak.
