Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 816 House arrest
Wu Youde said softly: "Your Majesty, I heard that the Ring of Great Khan is in the hands of Duke Di, why..."

Wu Zetian stood up slowly, picked up the channel on the desk: "Take a look."

Wu Youde took the letter, skimmed it quickly, and pretended to be surprised: "It's him, the traitor in the court is Di Renjie!"

Wu Zetian turned around abruptly and said, "You really think Di Huaiying is a traitor?"

Wu Youde tremblingly said: "Your Majesty, this letter has written very clearly."

Wu Zetian said: "If he was with He Lu, why did he personally arrest He Lu at the Yingbin Inn?"

Wu Youde said: "Your Majesty, Qi Ge has made it very clear in his letter that they have colluded with each other inside and outside to play a bitter trick!

First of all, Di Renjie arrested He Lu with his own hands, and this action excluded him from being a traitor.Then, he used a trick to divert everyone's attention to Shar Khan.

In this way, he can start in secret, planning a raid on the Shanjin Bureau to rob gold and silver.

After the incident, Di Renjie skillfully threw Shar Khan out and poisoned him on the spot so that he could not speak up.

In this way, all clues were cut off with Shar Khan's death.

Prior to this, Di Renjie had persuaded His Majesty to appoint Li Yuanfang and Zeng Tai as the chief and deputy envoys of the Marriage Mission, which meant that He Lu had been rescued.

All it takes is time.

I want to come, after the mission arrives in Liangzhou, Li Yuanfang and Zeng Taiding will contact Qi Ge in secret, and cooperate internally and externally to rescue He Lu. "

Wu Zetian shook his head lightly, and said, "I don't believe it, I don't believe Di Huaiying would do such a thing. Besides, Di Huaiying and Ji Li Khan are close friends, why would he help He Lu?"

Wu Youde remonstrated urgently: "Your Majesty, the evidence is as solid as a mountain. For the sake of the country, the community, and the people of the two countries, please make a decisive decision immediately!"

Wu Zetian shook his head and said: "Di Huaiying is a virtuous minister, loyal and pure, and has made great contributions to the community. I don't believe he would do such a thing. I want to see with my own eyes whether the ring of the Great Khan is real or not. Still in his hands!"

……

The gate opened suddenly, and Di Renjie and Ruyan walked into the mansion surrounded by guards.

Defoe ran over in a panic and shouted, "Master!"

Di Renjie said, "Why are you in such a panic, what happened?"

De Fu whispered something in Di Renjie's ear, and Di Renjie exclaimed, "What!"

The hall door opened with a "squeak", Di Renjie walked slowly into the hall, and closed the hall door with his hand back.

On the main couch was a man sitting with his back to the door, wearing a cloak embroidered with dragons and phoenixes.

Di Renjie knelt down on both knees: "Your Majesty, my minister, Di Renjie."

The man turned around slowly, and it was Emperor Wu Zetian.

She smiled and said, "Huaiying is flat. Why, didn't you expect Zhen to come?"

Di Renjie stood up and said, "Your Majesty is very fortunate, and I am very honored. The Ministry of Internal Affairs should inform the minister first, so that I can welcome you at the mansion."

Wu Zetian waved his hand and said, "I want them not to be notified in advance. Today I am here to imitate ordinary people, like visiting friends among friends. Alright, sit down."

Di Renjie took the order and sat beside the emperor.

Wu Zetian smiled and said: "The furnishings in this hall are so simple and simple, I am afraid that it is like this in the prime minister of the court, that is, your home?"

Di Renjie said with a smile: "I don't care about pomp, just apply it."

Wu Zetian said: "Huaiying, you and I, the monarch and my subjects, have traveled all the way for more than twenty years, right?"

Di Renjie replied: "Twenty and a year."

Wu Zetian nodded: "You know, I trust you very much. The Standing Committee is important to Qing, and I have never had the slightest suspicion."

Di Renjie said: "Your Majesty's kindness to you will never be repaid by death."

Wu Zetian sighed and said, "Do you... have anything to say to me?"

Di Renjie was stunned: "What does Your Majesty mean?"

Wu Zetian said: "I didn't disturb the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the guards of the prison, nor brought the imperial army here today. I just want to tell you that we chat like friends. No matter what you say tonight, I will forgive you."

Di Renjie went in without knowing it, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty's words are a little unpredictable."

Wu Zetian looked at Di Renjie for a long time, then smiled and said, "Maybe, you didn't understand what I meant..."

Di Renjie hurriedly said: "Please make it clear, Your Majesty."

Wu Zetian looked at him and said, "Where is the Ring of Great Khan that Ji Li Khan gave you now?"

Di Renjie was taken aback: "I asked Yuan Fang to carry it with me in case of accidents."

Wu Zetian looked at him for a long time, then stood up slowly: "Huaiying, Huaiying, I just said that if you tell the truth now, there is still time."

Di Renjie fell into a mist, he pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, today I learned a very strange thing from the missing silversmith."

Wu Zetian raised her eyebrows and said, "Oh, what is it?"

Di Renjie said: "The silversmith Li Yong said that Shar Khan once asked them to imitate the ring of the Great Khan..."

Wu Zetian smiled, smiling so disdainfully, yet so disappointedly.

Di Renjie was stunned: "Why are you laughing, Your Majesty?"

Wu Zetian let out a long sigh, and said angrily, "When are you going to use Shar Khan as a puppet?"

Di Renjie was stunned: "I don't understand what His Majesty means."

Wu Zetian resolutely said: "I don't understand, I'm afraid there is no one in the world who understands better than you. Just now I told you that as long as you tell the truth, I can forgive you without guilt, but you think you are smart.

Di Renjie, you lost your last chance! "

After speaking, Wu Zetian walked out of the hall.

Di Renjie was speechless for a while, but stayed where he was. Seeing that Wu Zetian was about to leave, he quickly got up and said, "Your Majesty, I respectfully send you off!"

Wu Zetian said solemnly: "No need. From now on, you stay in the mansion and you are not allowed to take a step out of the gate!"

With that said, he strode out the door.

Di Renjie was completely stunned, and it took him a long time to turn his head slowly. Suddenly, his eyes fell on the couch.

The ring of sweating—the tiger-headed eagle lying quietly on the couch.

Di Renjie rushed over with a stride, grabbed the ring and looked at it carefully, and found that it was exactly the same as his own.

He gasped, stepped back three steps and fell down on the couch.

Immediately understood the purpose of Shar Khan's imitation ring.

At this moment, Qianniuwei's shout came from the commotion outside: "Guard the gate of the mansion, no one is allowed to enter or leave!"

With a "bang", the door of the hall opened, Ruyan rushed in, and shouted in panic: "Uncle, what's going on? Qianniuwei surrounded us!"

Di Renjie said tremblingly: "The thing I was worried about finally happened, but what I didn't expect was that it would happen so fast and so suddenly!"

Ruyan anxiously said: "Uncle, what should we do now?"

Di Renjie slowly sat back on the couch and said, "Let me think about it, think about it."
