Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 814 Suspicion
Tucker kowtowed again and again: "Yes, yes, the little one must think about it."

Di Renjie waved his hand, and two guards escorted Tucker out of the door quickly.

Di Renjie stood up and said to Ru Yan: "What he said is basically the same as what Li Yong said."

Ruyan nodded: "It's strange, what kind of medicine is sold in Shar Khan's gourd?"

Di Renjie said worriedly: "Ruyan, I feel a little uneasy. It seems that something big will happen."

Ruyan persuaded: "Uncle, I think you are worrying too much, no matter what, Shar Khan is dead, what can a dead person do?"

Di Renjie shook his head slowly: "My intuition tells me that things are never as simple as you said."

Ruyan was taken aback and said, "Oh? You mean..."

Di Renjie took a deep breath, pondered for a moment and said, "Ruyan, follow me to Shar Khan's mansion."

……

The Ring of Great Khan was held in the hands of Emperor Wu Zetian. She raised her head suddenly and said in surprise, "This is Jiri Khan's Ring of Great Khan—a tiger-headed flying eagle. Five years ago in Youzhou, he gave this ring to you. I gave it to Di Huaiying. How could it be in your hands?"

Fenghuang coughed and said: "Your Majesty, I am about to report this matter to Your Majesty."

Wu Zetian raised her eyebrows and said, "What's the matter?"

Fenghuang replied: "Today, the inner guard captured a Turkic spy in the city, and I found this ring and a letter in the horse bag that this person was carrying."

Wu Zetian asked, "Where is the letter?"

Fenghuang said: "It's in the hand of the minister. The letter is written in Turkic, and I consulted a scholar who is proficient in Turkic in the Chongwen Museum."

Wu Zetian said: "What did you say in the letter?"

Fenghuang took out the letter and unfolded it: "This letter is written by Qi Ge, the cousin of the Turkic Crown Prince He Lu, to..."

Wu Zetian's eyes shined brightly: "Who is it for?"

Fenghuang replied: "Write to Di Guolao."

Wu Zetian was stunned immediately: "Di, Di Guolao... Di Huaiying?"

Phoenix nodded: "Exactly."

Wu Zetian gasped and asked, "What did you say in the letter?"

Fenghuang swallowed and said, "Say, say..."

Suddenly, Wu Zetian slapped the table heavily, and shouted sharply, "What did you say?"

Fenghuang was taken aback and hurriedly said: "It is said that the planning has been successfully completed, Prince He Lu did not suffer in vain, the gold and silver have now successfully fallen into Di Renjie's hands, and all the responsibilities are borne by the dead Shar Khan alone.

He has received a letter from Di Renjie that the rescue of Prince He Lu will be carried out in Liangzhou according to the agreed plan.

The next step is to ask Mr. Di to drive a silver carriage to the Turks for a meeting as soon as possible. "

Fenghuang stopped talking, and the hall was completely silent.The air seemed to freeze.

Wu Zetian opened her mouth wide. She didn't quite believe her ears, and murmured: "Qi Ge said in the letter that it was Di Huaiying who planned the robbery of the Shanjin Bureau for him? Are you going to rescue He Lu in Liangzhou?"

Fenghuang nodded and said: "Yes, yes... After learning the contents of the letter, I thought it was a serious matter. I didn't dare to deal with it casually, so I hurried into the palace, please let me personally decide."

Wu Zetian settled down, took a deep breath and said, "In other words, Di Renjie is the biggest traitor in the court, the mastermind of the whole case, and Shar Khan is just an accomplice..."

Fenghuang swallowed, not daring to say a word.

Suddenly, Wu Zetian stood up and said: "No, it's impossible! This is an indirect trick! Di Huaiying is loyal and pure, and Ji Li Khan is an irreversible friend.

In the past few years, he has repeatedly assisted Geely to smash the conspiracy of the militant nobles to provoke war between the two countries.

It can be said that he is a thorn in the side of the Turkic warlike nobles, how could he help He Lu and Qi Ge! "

Fenghuang hurriedly said: "I also think so, it is really unbelievable to say that Mr. Di is a traitor."

Wu Zetian said: "Where is the Turkic traitor you caught?"

Fenghuang replied: "During the interrogation, he didn't reveal a single word, bit his tongue and killed himself."

Wu Zetian was surprised and said: "Suicide?"

Phoenix said: "Exactly."

Wu Zetian pondered: "If this is a conspiracy by the villain to frame Di Huaiying, then the traitor should go along with the flow, pretend to confess, and take the opportunity to frame Di Huaiying. Why did he commit suicide?"

Phoenix held his breath and didn't speak.

Wu Zetian looked at the ring in his hand, slowly sat in the dragon chair and said, "Moreover, this ring is indeed Di Huaiying's property..."

Fenghuang tentatively asked: "Your Majesty, is it possible that the villain imitated it and used it to harm Di Guolao?"

Wu Zetian looked at the ring and said: "Well, there is such a possibility. Fenghuang, summon Nanping County King Wu Youde, Internal Servant Provincial Supervisor Lu Zheng, and Shanjin Bureau Zhang Gu Tie Le into the palace."

Phoenix said: "Yes!"

……

With a "squeak", the door of the study opened, and Di Renjie and Ruyan walked into the hall accompanied by Zhong Shi.

Di Renjie asked: "Ma'am, is this Shar Khan's study?"

Zhong said: "Exactly. Mr. Guo, I have been thinking these days, who is the person who replaced my husband? Thinking about it makes people shudder."

Di Renjie nodded: "Yeah, I'm thinking about this too. That's why I'm going to visit Shafu again. Maybe we overlooked something before."

Zhong nodded slowly and said, "Then you can take another look."

Di Renjie nodded, his eyes quickly searched.

In the middle of the study room, there are desks and couches, and on the walls on both sides are floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and the Baibao Pavilion. There are many extremely well-made gold and silver wares in the Baibao Pavilion.

There was a screen behind the desk, and Di Renjie's eyes stopped on the screen.

A few lines of characters are engraved in protruding silver on the facade of the screen: "If you pay your salary, you will feel uneasy about your room. How can you be a gold husband, and you are worth two thousand stones."

Di Renjie looked at these words quietly.

Ruyan at the side said softly: "Uncle, what is written on it?"

Di Renjie smiled: "It's about Zhu Maichen in the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty."

Ruyan asked strangely: "But there is no word Zhu Maichen on it?"

Di Renjie said with a smile: "I'm so worried about my salary, I don't feel comfortable with my family. It's about Zhu Maichen, when he was young, he made a living by collecting firewood and selling his salary. On the way to collect firewood, he recited poems aloud, and his wife followed him, looking down on him very much." He asked him to stop singing, but Zhu Maichen sang more and more happily.

His wife hated him for being poor, so she left him.

A few years later, Zhu Maichen wrote a letter to Yique, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty made him the prefect of Kuaiji and returned home in fine clothes.

He didn't think about the old evil, and raised his ex-wife and his wife together, not wanting that his ex-wife would hang herself in shame and anger a few days later.

These last two sentences, how can you be a gold husband, and a virtuous two thousand stones.

That is to say, his ex-wife didn't see that he was a golden husband with a monthly salary of two thousand shi, and left him easily. "

It was only then that Ruyan understood: "Ah, that's what it means. This Zhu Maichen is a good man, and his wife is not very good. She dislikes the poor and loves the rich. She deserves her death!"

Di Renjie shook his head with a smile.
