Chapter 441
Di Fu.

Di Renjie was sitting quietly behind the desk, closing his eyes and meditating on something.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, and Li Yuanfang came in with tea.

Di Renjie opened his eyes: "Yuan Fang!"

Li Yuanfang put down the teacup in his hand and looked at the sky outside: "This Jingyang, you agreed to give us a surprise, but you still haven't come yet."

Di Renjie smiled: "Yuanfang, don't worry, don't worry, I have a vague feeling that tonight, Jingyang will bring us a lot of rewards."

"Those who know me, my lord!"

Wang Mang's voice sounded outside the door.

Di Renjie looked up and saw Wang Mang walking in with a man in a black cloak.

Di Renjie looked at the black cloak behind Wang Mang, and was startled: "Who is this?"

Wang Mang said: "The leader of Jiangzhou's internal guards!"

"what?"

Li Yuanfang exclaimed.

Wang Mang looked at the black cloak behind him, and the black cloak slowly lifted the hood, revealing a face, it was Wen Kai.

Di Renjie shook his head, and said sadly: "Zeng Tai five years ago, Wen Kai today, I really don't know what to say!"

Wen Kai lowered his head.

Li Yuanfang who was standing aside was dumbfounded.

At this time, Wang Mang said: "My lord, Mr. Wen can't help himself!"

Wen Kai glanced at Wang Mang gratefully.

Wang Mang went on to say: "Lord Wen, I'm afraid you don't know yet, but Master Di has already suspected you."

Di Renjie nodded and said: "Yes, from the time you bloodbathed Pingnanhou's Mansion and raided the gravel beach, I already knew that you are by no means descendants of Huang Guogong, but internal guards."

Wen Kai raised his head.

Di Renjie said: "I am shocked by your surprise attack ability and the double-hooked light-feathered arrows you use.

Reminiscent of the emperor's behavior, I finally understood that the reason why she was so cautious towards Pingnan Marquis Xue Qinglin was because there was a secret letter still in Xue Qinglin's hands.

What's more, the emperor had sent the inner guards to sneak into Wuping as early as a year ago. "

Wen Kai nodded: "Elder Ge's words are absolutely true."

Di Renjie asked: "What kind of secret is involved in this letter, so that the emperor is so violent?"

Wen Kai said: "I don't know about this point. Two years ago, after the 'Snake Spirit' case was solved, the humble official moved to the Jiangzhou governor to claim his meritorious service, and went to the Beijing Central Bureau of Officials to apply for orders. The emperor specially summoned the humble official to enter the palace... "

In Guanfeng Hall, Wen Kai raised his head: "Chen Jiangzhou Inspector Wen Kai, I greet Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live."

Wu Zetian raised his head, looked at the kneeling Wen Kai and said, "Aiqing is flat."

Wen Kai kowtowed again and stood up.

Wu Zetian smiled and said: "This time, in the case of the 'Snake Spirit', you helped Di Renjie defeat the rebellious party, and the credit goes to the court. I am very relieved."

Wen Kai said: "It's all thanks to the emperor Wei Ling, Di Renjie commanded well, and the minister just fell into the stirrups with his horse and did his duty a little bit."

Wu Zetian nodded: "I remember you joined the inner guard in the second year of Zhengsheng, right?"

Wen Kai replied, "Yes."

Wu Zetian asked: "Do you know why I put you in Jiangzhou this time?"

Wen Kai was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't know."

Wu Zetian said: "In Wuping County under Jiangzhou's rule, there is Xue Qinglin, Marquis of Pingnan, who is fierce and domineering, and harms the people. I have long intended to get rid of him.

However, I still have one thing on my mind, that is, when Huang Guogong conspired against the case ten years ago, I had several correspondences with Xue Qinglin.

After the case was over, I strictly ordered him to destroy the letter. However, this thief had a malicious intention and left a letter secretly in an attempt to blackmail me. "

Wen Kai couldn't help being surprised.

Wu Zetian said: "I sent you to Jiangzhou to secretly find the secret letter, take it out of the Hou's mansion, and return it to me. As for how to deal with Xue Qinglin, I will send the court officials there."

Wen Kai bowed and said, "Yes."

Wu Zetian said: "I will approve all your needs, and I will go to the Neiwei Mansion tomorrow to receive the order."

Wen Kai replied: "I obey the order."

Wu Zetian said: "Remember, this matter is a top secret and must not be known by anyone!"

Wen Kai said: "I dare not!"

……

Wen Kai said to Wang Mang, Di Renjie and the others: "That's how I left Beijing to take up my post in Jiangzhou. I don't want to know as soon as I arrive that you and Lord Wang have also come to Jiangzhou."

Di Renjie took a deep breath: "I finally understand that all of this was planned carefully by the emperor. First send you and Jing Yang to Jiangzhou, and after you and Jing Yang steal the secret letter, we will be re-appointed on the spot. And Yuan Fang, get rid of Xue Qinglin without anyone noticing!"

Wen Kai said: "That's exactly what the emperor meant. Among the ministers in the court, headed by King Liang, Xue Qinglin is irresistible. Once this matter is known to these people, there will be resistance. Therefore, the emperor decided on this strategy. .”

Wang Mang took a deep breath, and seeing that Di Renjie didn't say anything about his wife's enmity with Xue Qinglin, he didn't say much.

Di Renjie nodded slowly.

Li Yuanfang said puzzledly: "If you want to get rid of Marquis Pingnan, why don't we just do it directly? Why did you secretly send the guards here to do this theft?"

Wen Kai smiled wryly, but didn't speak.

Di Renjie sighed and said: "The emperor is afraid. If we are sent to deal with Xue Qinglin hastily, the villain will jump over the wall and reveal the secret in the letter to the public. The people of the world."

Wang Mang nodded: "My lord is right."

Wen Kai nodded: "Ge Lao is absolutely right, this is exactly what His Majesty wants."

Di Renjie said: "What is written in this secret letter that makes His Majesty so worried?"

Wang Mang and Wen Kai looked at each other, and they shook their heads.

Wang Mang said, "To be honest, I don't know either."

Wen Kai said: "Elder Ge, you understand the emperor's temper. Over the past year, she has repeatedly questioned this matter. But you know, it is not easy to find a secret letter from ten years ago in the huge Marquis Mansion." ? That’s like finding a needle in a haystack!”

Wang Mang nodded: "So, you sent Xiaoyun?"

Wen Kai nodded: "Yes, since Xiaoyun sneaked into the Hou's mansion, she searched almost every room in the mansion, and finally found the dark room.

Excited and disregarding the consequences, the humble official sent a memorial to the emperor, claiming that the matter would be resolved within a few days, but who would have thought that he would fall into someone else's trap! "

Wang Mang smiled wryly: "No wonder, the emperor asked me not to intervene, saying that you will find it soon."

Wen Kai shook his head: "Yes, but who would have thought that we would fall into the trap of others!"

Di Renjie suddenly realized: "So it is like this!"

Wen Kai said: "Exactly. Originally, this matter went very smoothly, and Xiaoyun stole the letter, and my lord can drastically get rid of Xue Qinglin, the villain who caused harm to one side.

But who would have thought that a Jinniang would appear on the way and steal the letter away!

Now that he is riding a tiger, and the secret letter is unknown, it may be difficult for the humble post to return to the Holy One. "

Hearing this, Wang Mang rubbed his nose in embarrassment. He didn't expect that he would cheat himself. If he didn't ask Qingqing to pretend to be Jinniang, there wouldn't be so many things.

But seeing the appearance of Wen Kai and Di Renjie, Wang Mang dared not speak out about it.
