Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 360

Di Renjie gave Wang Mang a wink, and Wang Mang nodded knowingly.

Immediately afterwards, he took a step forward and patted Li Yuanfang's shoulder lightly.

Li Yuanfang snorted heavily, and put away the steel knife in his palm.

Wang Mang walked up to the fake Zhang Jianzhi and said, "I know what you are afraid of. Don't worry, Xiao Qingfang, the eldest sister of the 'Snake Spirit', is dead, so no one will threaten your life. Now, it's okay!"

Fake Zhang Jianyi was startled and raised his head: "Really?"

Di Renjie smiled: "Of course it's true!"

The fake Zhang Jianzhi heaved a sigh of relief: "My lord, I, we don't want to pretend to be like this. This is all forced by the elder sister Xiao Qingfang!"

"Oh? Don't worry, speak slowly."

False Zhang Jianzhi said: "We are all subordinates of various halls of the 'Snake Spirit', scattered all over the country.

A few months ago, the hall master ordered us to get up and rush to the main altar immediately. We didn't dare to delay and arrived at Xingye.

Eldest sister Xiao Qingfang called us together. After many observations and strict screening, she thought that we all resembled the ministers of the court in terms of appearance and temperament.

So let's go through disguises and pretend to be them. "

Di Renjie nodded: "Didn't you ask why you did this?"

False Zhang Jianzhi said: "Your Excellency, you have clearly observed that in the 'Snake Spirit', we dare not ask more questions when the eldest sister speaks, we can only obey.

She handed us over to Blood Spirit, the master of the Nine Halls, to change faces.

After that, they sent people to teach us to practice various etiquette in court.

Finally, let us learn the words of the patent, and we still don't understand why we do this. "

Di Renjie asked: "Besides you guys who are disguised, is there anyone else?"

Fake Zhang Jianzhi thought for a while, then suddenly raised his head: "Oh, by the way, there is another brother from Wutang who disguised himself as Prince Li Xian."

"Oh? Where is this person now?"

"He only stayed with us for a dozen days before leaving."

"Where did you go?"

"I don't know that."

Di Renjie nodded and said, "What else did Xiao Qingfang say to you?"

Fake Zhang Jianzhi pondered for a moment and said: "One time, she once said that she would send us to Luoyang to act."

Di Renjie raised his eyebrows suddenly: "Luoyang?"

Fake Zhang Jianzhi said: "Exactly."

Di Renjie took a deep breath: "This time, where are you going from the main altar?"

Fake Zhang Jianzhi said: "My lord, we can't inquire about this kind of thing, only the leaders of the teams know."

Wen Kai said softly: "Mr. Ge, General Zhou and I interrogated a purple-clothed leader this afternoon. His order was to transfer to Liuzhou first, and then to Luoyang."

Di Renjie waved his hand: "Put them down."

Wen Kai waved his hand, and the sergeants escorted a group of "ministers" and walked out the door quickly.

Di Renjie said softly: "By the way, Jing Yang, you said just now that we should go to Luoyang now?"

Wang Mang nodded: "Exactly, as far as I know, there are still some people in Luoyang."

Di Renjie nodded: "Luoyang, Luoyang... It seems that Xiao Qingfang has a lot of ambition!"

Li Yuanfang said: "She asked her subordinates to pretend to be cabinet ministers. It must be the same as before. She wants to replace Mr. Zhang Ge secretly."

Di Renjie shook his head: "It's not that simple, think about it, cabinet ministers hold high positions in the court, how can they be changed whenever they want.

Not to mention that the guards in each mansion are strictly guarded, they have no way to start, but if they can really replace these ministers, can they escape the eyes of the bureaucrats in the court?

Can they escape the eyes of the emperor who discusses military affairs with them all day long?

As for these mobs, don't talk about dealing with court affairs, just open their mouths, and the flaws will be revealed immediately. "

Li Yuanfang was confused: "Then why did Xiao Qingfang do this? It doesn't make sense?"

Di Renjie said: "Of course she is justified in doing so. I once said that things that often seem irrational are actually the most logical."

Li Yuanfang looked bewildered: "Although that's the case, how do you explain what's going on in front of you?"

"My lord, that's not bad. If you change them one by one, it will certainly reveal flaws, but what if you change all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, even including the emperor?"

Wang Mang said softly.

"what?"

"what?"

Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang were stunned.

Di Renjie swallowed: "Jing Yang, what, what does this mean?"

Li Yuanfang asked: "How, how is this possible? How could they all be changed?"

Wang Mang said: "Of course they can catch all civil and military affairs of the Manchu dynasty. My lord, it's actually just a question. What is the secret that Yuan Tiangang and Xiao Qingfang hold? As long as this point is solved, everything will become clear."

Li Yuanfang sighed: "Unexpectedly, after the 'snake spirit''s lair was broken, things became more and more complicated!"

Di Renjie patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, we are getting closer to the truth."

As he spoke, he paced back and forth slowly, thinking quietly.

Li Yuanfang looked at Di Renjie and Wang Mang in bewilderment.

Suddenly, Wang Mang said: "My lord, just now that fake Zhang Jianzhi said that a brother from Wutang pretended to be Prince Li Xian."

Suddenly, Di Renjie stopped in his tracks and blurted out in surprise: "Prince Li Xian..."

Wang Mang nodded: "Yes, my lord, so we have to hurry back to Luoyang, I'm afraid they have already succeeded..."

Li Yuanfang was taken aback: "My lord, Jing Yang, what's wrong with you, what did you succeed in?"

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

Suddenly, Di Renjie took a deep breath, recalling the prince's expression when he met the prince when he left Luoyang not long ago.

Luoyang Taiwo Palace.

Di Renjie's eyes casually looked at "Li Xian"'s hands, which were holding onto the armrests of the seat tightly, trembling slightly.

Di Renjie smiled: "The minister will leave."

"Li Xian" let go of his hand all of a sudden, cupped his hands and said, "Master Ge is very kind, Li Xian is very grateful!"

None of this escaped Di Renjie's eyes.

Di Renjie stood up: "This is what a minister should do. Thank you, Your Highness. Your Highness, please stay."

"Li Xian" said: "I'll send the old man off."

Saying that, the two walked out of the hall quickly.

……

Thinking of this, Di Renjie clenched his teeth and murmured, "Why is he so nervous? Why is his behavior so different from usual? Could it be..."

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something.

Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang looked at each other and asked softly, "My lord, what did you think of?"

Di Renjie turned around and said, "Yuan Fang, Jing Yang, order the army to prepare and set off tomorrow! We will hurry back to the capital of God!"
