Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 787

Di Renjie pondered for a while, then shook his head and said, "These five coachmen entered the Sha Mansion, and they have confirmed the identity of Shar Khan. It is certain that he is the culprit in the Shanjin Bureau murder—the mysterious Beishan."

Li Yuanfang nodded and said, "That's right, I think so too."

At this time, Wang Mang said: "No conspiracy planner would be so stupid as to sacrifice his own life in the plan. Therefore, at least one thing is certain, Shar Khan is not dead."

Li Yuanfang took a deep breath and nodded.

Di Renjie said: "It's still the same question, how did he bring the Turkic cavalry into the Shanjin Bureau, and how did he lead the attackers to retreat after the fire broke out..."

Li Yuanfang replied: "My lord, this question has always confused the humble officials. The Shanjin Bureau is heavily guarded. How could Shar Khan bring nearly fifty attackers into the bureau? This is too incredible."

Wang Mang said: "They must have used a method that we haven't thought of yet."

Di Renjie nodded slowly: "I can't figure it out either. Well, Jing Yang, Yuan Fang, it's the same sentence, don't worry. We have already gained a lot today, and we will go back home and wait for news from Zeng Tai. "

Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang looked at each other, they nodded, and the three of them turned the horse's head.

Suddenly, Di Renjie reined in his horse.

Li Yuanfang asked: "My lord, what's the matter?"

Di Renjie turned his horse's head quickly, and looked at the big wall of Chengfufang on the side of the Shafu...

Di Renjie suddenly opened his eyes wide and said, "It's separated by a wall!"

Li Yuanfang was puzzled: "My lord, what did you say?"

"Separated by a wall!"

Wang Mang murmured when he heard what Di Renjie said.

Di Renjie said: "Do you still remember? When we visited Shar Khan's mansion, we mentioned that his mansion is only separated from the Shanjin Bureau by a wall."

Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang looked at each other, they nodded and said, "Remember..."

Di Renjie said: "The day before yesterday we raided Shar Khan's mansion and found an underground tunnel in the back garden."

Wang Mang suddenly realized: "Ah, your lord means..."

Li Yuanfang also came to her senses suddenly: "So it is like this!"

Di Renjie hissed, and said with a smile: "Don't say it, don't say it. Jing Yang, Yuan Fang, who is responsible for cleaning up the fire at the Shanjin Bureau?"

Li Yuanfang thought for a while, and said: "Luo Governor Shi and Sima, before leaving, I entrusted the general Wang Xiaojie to supervise the investigation."

Wang Mang nodded: "Brother Yuan Fang is right, it's them."

Di Renjie nodded and said, "Zhang Huan, Li Lang."

The two said, "Yes."

Di Renjie ordered: "You two lead guards to monitor Shar Khan's mansion day and night."

The two lead.

Di Renjie said to Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang: "Jing Yang, Yuan Fang, let's go to the fire!"

Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang nodded, and rode their horses to follow Di Renjie.

……

The carriage was parked in the backyard of Sha Fu.

Five coachmen were talking in low voices beside the cart.

Tucker came over, and the leading driver ran up and said, "Second Lord, we are back."

Tucker asked, "How's it going, did you go well?"

The leader said: "It went very well."

Tucker said, "Is there no one following?"

The leader shook his head: "Don't worry."

Tucker nodded, and said to a servant: "Ask someone to carry the box to the back hall."

The servant nodded and trotted away.

Tucker said to the five coachmen, "Come with me."

Several people walked forward quickly.

……

There was silence in the backyard.

Suddenly, the carriage moved.

Princess Wu Yuanmin climbed out of the big black box and listened attentively. When there was no movement outside, she rushed to the door and shook it desperately, but the door was locked from the outside, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't open it.

Wu Yuanmin took a deep breath and slammed into the car door with all his strength.

With a loud "click", the door shaft broke, and Wu Yuanmin rushed out of the carriage.

She stuck her head on the ground, fell and gnawed on the mud, and cried out "Ouch" in pain. She quickly covered her mouth and looked around, but there was no one around.

Wu Yuanmin jumped up, hid behind the carriage, and looked towards the back door.

In front of the back door stood two servants holding steel knives.

Wu Yuanmin held his breath, turned around, closed the car door, and ran forward.

……

In front of the ruins in the back alley of the Shanjin Bureau, with a "hula", the huge bluestone slab was lifted up, and the dust flew up instantly.

Wang Mang, Di Renjie, Li Yuanfang, Wang Xiaojie, Luo Governor Shi, and Sima stepped forward to look down, and there was a wide secret road under the stone slab.

Everyone exclaimed, Wang Mang, Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang looked at each other with smiles on their faces.

Wang Xiaojie said in surprise: "There is really a secret way, Marshal, how do you know?"

Di Renjie said with a smile: "Often the things that seem the most unreasonable are actually the most reasonable.

There is only one wall between Shar Khan's home and the Shanjin Bureau. It is not difficult to dig a secret passage to get here.

It is precisely because of this secret road that Shar Khan, the fake driver and dozens of Turkic cavalry were able to sneak in without anyone noticing.

It was also because of this secret passage that Shar Khan and the attackers were able to leave in time with 110 million taels of gold and silver after the fire in the Shanjin Bureau. "

Wang Xiaojie said: "Marshal, the general is convinced!"

Di Renjie took a deep breath and said, "Come on, let's go in and have a look!"

The secret passage was pitch black, with flames flickering. Wang Mang, Di Renjie, Li Yuanfang, and Wang Xiaojie led a few guards, holding high the torches, and walked slowly into the depths of the secret passage.

Suddenly, a stone gate appeared not far in front of him. Wang Mang stepped forward quickly, stretched out his hand and pushed it, but the stone gate remained motionless.

Wang Mang said: "This is the end of the secret path. From what I think, this door must be controlled by agencies."

As he spoke, he took the torch and started looking around. Di Renjie, Li Yuanfang and others also held torches and searched on the wall.

Wang Xiaojie asked strangely: "Marshal, what are you looking for?"

Di Renjie said: "The organ that opens the stone gate."

Wang Xiaojie said, "What is an institution?"

Di Renjie searched and replied: "The organ is composed of a pin spring and a mechanism, which can secretly open secret doors, secret compartments and other secret news buttons."

Wang Xiaojie nodded, half understanding, and said, "Did you find it?"

Di Renjie looked at Wang Mang: "Jing Yang is an expert in this field."

With that said, everyone looked at Wang Mang.

Wang Mang shook his head slowly and said: "It seems that this door is opened by the main switch in Shafu."

Li Yuanfang said: "I think so too. Otherwise, once outsiders find the secret way, they can open the secret door at will. Isn't it very unsafe?"

Di Renjie nodded.

Wang Xiaojie said: "Commander, at the end of the day, let someone come in, just break open the door!"

Di Renjie pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Now is not the time. This time, we must find conclusive evidence before we can do anything. Otherwise, once the Holy Majesty finds out, we will be in big trouble."
