"Di Renjie? What's the situation with this person?" Li Xian looked at Li Jingxuan, indicating to ask.
Li Jingxuan, however, knew nothing about this. He couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, bowed and said, "Wei Chen will send someone to investigate now."
"Huh!" Although Gaozong didn't say anything else, the dissatisfaction in the painting was already very obvious.
At this moment, Yan Liben suddenly heard Zhongshu Ling (i.e. Right Prime Minister, in the first year of Xianheng, all official positions were restored to their old names before the second year of Longshuo) stepped forward and said: "About this Di Renjie, the ministers know about it. "
"Oh? Yan Qing knows? Okay, okay, tell me quickly." Gaozong heard this, glanced at his favorite Yan Liben with approval, and then said with a smile.
"Yes, this Di Renjie was born in Taiyuan, Bingzhou. His grandfather was named Di Xiaoxu. He was Zuocheng, the minister of the Zhenguan Dynasty. His father, Di Zhisun, was the governor of Kui. Renjie was born in the fourth year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong. He was well-read in poetry and books, took the Ming Dynasty examination in the Yonghui Annual Examination, and was appointed as the magistrate of Bianzhou. Because he was an honest and upright official, he offended the local government and was falsely accused by a minor official. Shi Weichen was appointed as the deposed envoy of Henan Province, which happened to be the trial After investigation into this case, we found out that Renjie had been wronged. In addition, the ministers also found that Di Renjie had both political integrity and talent, so they praised him as the pearl of the river and the treasure of the southeast. Therefore, I submitted this document to your majesty to protect Renjie as Bingzhou Fa Cao of the Dudu Mansion joined the army."
Yan Liben thought for a while and then continued: "Haha, I also heard that when Di Renjie was serving as the legal officer of Bingzhou and joining the army, he not only solved many unsolved cases, but also was a kind and righteous man. There was a legal officer in the same prefecture of Bingzhou named Zheng Chongzhi, who once He was going on a business trip to a far away place, but his mother was ill, so Renjie went to the governor Shi Lin Renji and asked to take her place. Lin Chief Shi was very moved, and reflected that he had had a bad relationship with Sima Li Xiaolian, and felt deeply guilty. , sighing and saying, "Are we the only ones who have no regrets?" We are treating it as before. Therefore, I believe that as long as Renjie is outstanding this time, the case will be able to get to the bottom of the matter. "
"Oh? In this case, this Di Renjie is indeed extraordinary. Since Xian'er and Yan Qing recommended him, we believe that this Di Renjie can successfully complete his mission. According to my decree, I ordered Di Renjie to concurrently serve as the censor of Henan Province to investigate and deal with Wang Bo's murder. One case." For some reason, Gaozong suddenly became tough this time. He did not discuss with Empress Wu at all, but directly issued an order.
Yan Liben was Zhongshu Ling and the general person in charge of the entire Zhongshu Province, so he naturally had the power to directly draft decrees. This was also one of the main reasons why Gaozong suddenly became tough in recent years. Although Empress Wu was dissatisfied, she had nothing to do about it at present.
However, Empress Wu always liked to engage in intrigues and intrigues. Seeing that the power of Gaozong and Prince Li Hong had increased greatly, while she was constantly being weakened, she began to think of ways to drive a wedge between the father and son relationship between Gaozong and the crown prince.
Not to mention how Empress Wu tried to drive a wedge between Gaozong and the prince, but Di Renjie, a military officer in Bingzhou's legal system, suddenly received an imperial edict one day, saying that he was ordered to concurrently serve as the supervisory censor of Henan Province and go to trial Wang Bo's murder case.
Di Renjie himself is shrewd and wise. He is best at solving all kinds of mysteries and unsolved cases, and he is also passionate about it. Recently, he suddenly received this order. He was also very happy and full of expectations. After briefly understanding the case, he He took office immediately.
However, Di Renjie did not directly take the government guards and go to Guozhou like others, because in that case, the criminal would definitely be prepared and he would not get the answer he wanted, so Di Renjie only brought
He hired a few servants, disguised himself as an ordinary businessman, and entered Guozhou quietly.
Di Renjie is indeed a well-known detective who has been passed down through the ages. After careful investigation, he finally concluded that Wang Bo was definitely unjust this time. However, in order to finalize the case, he still needs definite evidence, and all of this requires
Wang Bo's cooperation, because he had to obtain a confession from Wang Bo.
But what troubled Di Renjie was that no matter how he tried to persuade him, Wang Bo insisted that the murder was his own doing and had nothing to do with others.
At this time, Li Yuanfang, Di Renjie's bodyguard, walked in hurriedly and said that someone asked to see him and it was related to Wang Bo. Di Renjie immediately perked up after hearing this and immediately ordered Li Yuanfang to bring the person.
The person who came was a man about seven feet tall. Although he looked very lean, his eyes were bright and lively, giving him a rather otherworldly appearance.
Before Di Renjie could speak, he saw the person coming and raised his hands and said: "Zhang Wuchen, the brigade commander of the late general Zhou Wangfu, has met Duke Di."
When Di Renjie heard this, he stood up quickly and said flattered: "Don't take it seriously, don't take it. Zhang Brigade Marshal was from the seventh rank. The Bingzhou Facao before he was promoted to the official was only from the eighth rank. Even the current supervisory censor is only a junior.
From the eighth rank, Brigade Commander Zhang is an officer no matter what. How can a subordinate be treated with such courtesy by Brigade Commander Zhang? Brigadier Zhang is trying to disgrace the subordinate."
But Zhang Wuchen said: "My king said that although Di Gong is not of high character, he has noble conduct and great talents. In the future, he will be a talented minister. I ask my subordinates not to neglect him. Haha, I will be dismissed this time."
The reason why I ask to see Duke Di is mainly because of Wang Bo's matter. I have brought a letter from my king. As long as Duke Di gives this letter to Wang Bo, I believe he will definitely tell the truth."
"Although I serve in Bingzhou, and the king is the governor of Bingzhou, the two of us have never met. I didn't expect that the king of Zhou would praise me so highly. This is really flattering. Also, just by virtue of
A letter can make the world-famous prince speak, I really don't know what kind of letter this is?" Di Renjie couldn't help but said slightly surprised when he heard this.
But Zhang Wuchen said: "Actually, this matter is not difficult, because my king has secretly found out the relevant details. Although the instigator is a friend of Wang Zi'an on the surface, he has actually defected to Brother Wu Chengsi a long time ago.
The reason why the framed Wang Zi'an was designed this time was all ordered by Wu Sansi. As long as my king tells Wang Zi'an the details, I believe that Wang Zi'an will definitely cooperate with Duke Di in the trial."
"Have you checked everything? This King of Zhou is really not simple. Hey, I, Di Renjie, spent nearly a month conducting investigations among the people, and finally found out the governor of Guozhou Liang Yi, the chief historian Zhang Tuisi, the Fa Cao Ling Jiyou and the officials
After investigating the relationship network of Minister Ma Huaiyu and others, Li Xianren was able to investigate everything clearly in the imperial capital. It seems that this person has other channels for information, which should not be underestimated. Alas, actually think about it, for example, I
Well, I’ve never had any dealings with King Zhou before, but he recommended me to investigate the case. If there weren’t another source of information, how could this happen?”
In fact, Di Renjie was not disgusted with all this. After all, Li Xian's recommendation was also an opportunity for him to show off his talents and continue to rise. Although he also expected that this matter might offend some powerful people, this was an opportunity for him to be loyal and determined.
For Di Renjie, who serves the country, it really doesn't mean anything. After all, people with different Taoist views do not conspire with each other. It is only a matter of time before he breaks with the evil spirits in the court. There is actually no difference between one day earlier and one day later.
On the one hand, Di Renjie secretly admired Li Xian's ability, but on the other hand, he naturally accepted the letter from Zhang Wuchen, promising that it would be delivered to Wang Bo's hands.
Di Renjie not only took the letter, but also opened it in front of Zhang Wuchen and read it carefully. Zhang Wuchen knew that this was because Di Renjie was worried about someone colluding with Wang Bo, but he was not impatient at all and waited quietly for Di Renjie
Read the letter.
"I have received the letter, and I would like to ask Brigadier Zhang to report back to the king. I will handle the case impartially and will never let good people be wronged and evil people go free." Di Renjie raised his hand to Zhang Wuchen, meaning to see the guest off.
.
Zhang Wuchen, however, raised his hand and said: "My lord, I still have an explanation. I am afraid that some young people will jump over the wall and plot against Duke Di, so I specially ordered my subordinates to protect Duke Di. Duke Di is a minister of the country and cannot make any mistakes."
But Di Renjie smiled and said: "There is no need to trouble Brigade Commander Zhang with this matter. The guard next to me is enough to handle it. To be honest with Brigadier Zhang, this man is the son of General Li Junxian, the former Zhonglang General of Zuo Wuhou.
He has practiced martial arts with strangers since he was a child, which is enough to deal with ordinary assassinations. What's more, Zhang Brigade's arrival here may arouse the suspicion of interested people. In this way, the case handled by the official will not be very convincing.
Stronger."
"Oh? That's it." Zhang Wuchen's eyes were like sharp blades, staring at Li Yuanfang, but he saw that Li Yuanfang was also staring at him unceremoniously. The eyes of the two people exchanged hundreds of times in an instant.
There was a faint murderous aura exuding from their bodies. Later, the murderous aura became stronger and stronger. Even Di Renjie on the side felt a little uncomfortable, so the two of them stopped.
"Haha, Brother Li is really good at martial arts, and I admire him, so I'm relieved." After Zhang Wuchen finished speaking, he bowed his hand to Di Renjie, then said goodbye and left.
"Yuanfang, are you okay?" Di Renjie looked at Li Yuanfang's face and asked quickly.
But Li Yuanfang smiled bitterly and said: "It's nothing. The main reason is that the man's martial arts skills are too high and his murderous intention is too strong. It's just that the general is a little uncomfortable. But that man probably doesn't feel very good either. Haha, although the general's momentum is slightly inferior,
But if we really fight with our lives, we may not be able to severely injure this person. Fortunately, this person is under the command of the King of Zhou, and we should be friends rather than enemies."
"Yes, I don't want to have an opponent like King Zhou. This person is really difficult to deal with." Di Renjie shook his head slowly, and then quietly gave Li Yuanfang instructions, asking Li Yuanfang to follow the plan.
act.
Unexpectedly, things went smoothly beyond imagination. On the second day of the court hearing, Wang Bo proposed to explain everything. This made Di Renjie even more impressed: "This King of Zhou can make this Wang Bo speak with just one letter."
, I really don’t know why this person has such great charm and Wang Bo trusts him so much. Alas, he is indeed a very remarkable person. At least his methods of winning over people have reached a terrifying level." (Unfinished)
