Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 142 Words from the Heart
As he spoke, Wu Zetian described the scene in his dream.

In the middle of the night, dark clouds covered the sky, and the night was dark.

Wu Zetian's bedroom in Chang'an City.

The door of the temple opened slowly, and a cat ran in quickly.

Wu Zetian was sleeping quietly on the bed, when suddenly a cat meowed in the hall, she opened her eyes, sat up, and saw a pair of bright eyes shining light green in the darkness, like human eyes.

"Who?"

Wu Zetian asked in surprise.

"Meow!"

A meow came from the darkness.

Just as Wu Zetian breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly there was a "whoosh", and the cat jumped onto the bed like lightning, and rushed towards Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian screamed and fell on the bed.

The cat turned around and jumped off the bed and ran out, Wu Zetian turned over and fell to the ground.

The cat ran out of the palace gate quickly, Wu Zetian hesitated for a moment, then chased after it.

night,
In the imperial garden, mist was rising, and cats meowed in the dense fog.

Wu Zetian looked around in horror as she walked.

Suddenly, a low wall appeared in front of her, and the cat squatted by the wall and looked at her quietly.

Wu Zetian walked over slowly, and suddenly the cat wailed and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Wu Zetian was taken aback.

At this time, the surroundings were deadly silent, there was no cat meowing, and there was no sound.

Wu Zetian turned her head, a terrifying face appeared in front of her eyes, it was Concubine Xiao Shu!
She opened her mouth, showing two long fangs and rushed towards Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian let out a scream, turned around and wanted to run, but another face appeared in front of her—it was the Queen!

Her face was pale, with blood hanging from the corner of her mouth, she said softly: "Wu Mei, why are you doing this to me?"

As she spoke, she opened her mouth wide, revealing a row of white fangs.

……

Wu Zetian let out a long sigh: "For several years in a row, I have had the same dream! It is precisely because of this that I ordered no one in the palace to keep cats. It is also for this reason that I made up my mind to leave Chang'an and live in the capital of God for a long time! These are all private rumors, not for outsiders to understand. If it is true as you said, it is a false rumor, then how can I have the same dream for several years in a row?"

Di Renjie pondered for a moment, then said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, can I forgive you to speak frankly?"

Wu Zetian nodded: "It's just the three of us now, but it doesn't matter."

Di Renjie said: "I have heard a little bit about what happened back then. Your Majesty is good at strategizing. The reason why the Queen and Concubine Xiao Shu were convicted back then may be inseparable from your majesty's strategy."

Wu Zetian suddenly raised his head.

Di Renjie hurriedly said: "My minister made a slip of the tongue."

Wu Zetian sighed and said, "Help me outside for a walk!"

Di Renjie and Wang Mang hurriedly helped Wu Zetian up.

in the hallway.

Wu Zetian walked slowly in front, Di Renjie followed, and Wang Mang followed closely.

Di Renjie said: "Although Your Majesty is a generation of enlightened rulers, she is a woman after all, and in terms of temperament, I am afraid that she is no different from women in the world.

The methods used to kill Wang and Xiao could be said to be extremely cruel.

The minister heard that His Majesty ordered to cut off the hands and feet of the two people, put the hands on the feet, and put the feet on the hands, and put the two people into the wine vat, slowly concocted them to death.

Such a way of dying can be described as extremely miserable!It is not surprising that the two of them died, but can His Majesty really be at peace in his heart? "

Wu Zetian let out a long sigh.

Di Renjie continued: "Your Majesty witnessed the death of the two of them with your own eyes, and it can be said that it was shocking, just like I also encountered some people who died in a tragic way during the judgment of the case.

For the dead, since the body is dead, everything disappears.

But for the living who saw the dead, there will be a kind of thought: "This person died so badly, will his ghost linger and come to seek revenge?" ’ In this way, while thinking during the day, there is a dream at night, and after waking up, the aftertaste confirms the previous idea, thinking that it is a ghost who made a dream come true.

Therefore, I often use people's psychology in judging cases. The so-called interrogation of ghosts and ghosts is actually nonsense and nothing more than a psychological tactic.

I think the reason why your majesty has frequent nightmares is nothing more than that, and your majesty's feminine nature makes it easier to believe in ghosts, which makes your majesty unable to calm down. "

Di Renjie spoke eloquently, and Wu Zetian couldn't help nodding his head in admiration: "Perhaps what you said makes sense. But how to explain the matter of the green toad? This green toad was given to Prince Zhanghuai Li Xian by myself. After he died, I took it back myself and locked it in Shangyang Palace, but tonight, why did I come here?"

Di Renjie nodded: "This is indeed a strange event, but it does not mean that it is caused by ghosts. Could it be possible that it was done by humans?"

"People? Who?"

Wu Zetian raised her eyebrows.

Di Renjie said: "I don't dare to draw conclusions. It's just that based on years of experience in judging cases, I feel that there must be a sycophant in this matter, using His Majesty's fear of gods and ghosts to achieve his ulterior purpose."

Wu Zetian let out a long sigh: "You don't believe in ghosts and gods, I don't blame you. But when you say there are sycophants, it's just a baseless assumption."

Di Renjie smiled, but did not speak.

Wu Zetian went on to say: "Just now you mentioned a woman's heart, how can I have a woman's heart?
From the day I entered the palace, I was no longer a woman, and I was struggling in the whirlpool of politics all my life.

Seeing and hearing, is death, betrayal and killing.

I have no way out, I can only move forward step by step.

In the end, I came to the end, ascended the throne, became emperor, and no one was above me.

But it was from that moment that I really lost everything: family, children, affection, I had nothing!There's just rebellion, flattery, and constant labor. "

Di Renjie looked at Wu Zetian, these words did not seem to come from the mouth of this strong woman, but they were from the heart!

Wu Zetian let out a long sigh: "Actually, I have lost a lot on the way to my goal. But at that time, at least I still have a goal, which I desperately want to achieve.

But when I actually achieved it, I felt excited, thrilled, after all, I was the first female monarch!I feel that I am great, I am proud of everything, the world is under my feet, and the officials are under my feet!But now I feel very bewildered, I don't understand what can I gain from being an emperor above ten thousand people? "

Di Renjie said: "Your Majesty has obtained the world."

Wu Zetian smiled bitterly: "You are wrong, all I get is hatred and enemies!"

Di Renjie was stunned.

Wu Zetian continued: "My son has become my enemy; my brothers and sisters have become my enemy; my former friends have become my enemy; I have to remove them from my sight one by one, and finally, I have nothing!"

Di Renjie said: "If your majesty killed Li Zhong, the king of Yan, it was because he was the queen concubine Xiao, and he could not be tolerated by your majesty. But I still don't understand why your majesty killed Li Hong, the filial emperor, and Li Xian, the prince of Zhanghuai. Your own son!"

Wu Zetian smiled: "I killed Li Hong because he collected Li Zhong's body privately. I suspect he had ulterior motives."

Di Renjie asked, "Just for this?"

Wu Zetian nodded: "The reason for killing Li Xian is even simpler, because he mistrusted people's words and thought that I was not his biological mother, so he became worried and wrote a poem."

As he spoke, such a picture flashed in Wu Zetian's mind.

In the palace, Wu Zetian held a poem in his hand: "Pluck melons under the yellow platform, and the melons are ripe and separated; one plucking makes the melon good, two plucking makes the melon thin; three plucking is still good, and fourth plucking brings back the vines."

Wu Zetian let out a sneer: "'It's okay to pick it three times, but it's okay to pick it up four times'! My good son!"

The inner guard said: "Your Majesty, it is said that Prince Zhang Huai often treats people around him. Your Majesty will never let him go. Sooner or later he will die in your hands."

Wu Zetian slammed the table heavily: "What use is this rebellious son! Tell Qiu Shenji to enter the palace immediately!"

After Qiu Shenji received the decree, he immediately went to Prince Zhanghuai's mansion and entered the main hall to deliver the decree.

Li Xian wandered anxiously, Qiu Shenji walked in and said loudly: "Li Xian accepts the order!"

Li Xian fell to his knees.

Qiu Shenji took out the poem from his bosom, and handed it over with a smirk: "The emperor asked me to give it to you."

Li Xian took a look and was shocked.

When he raised his head, Qiu Shenji had disappeared.

Suddenly, a rope was wrapped around his neck from behind and tightened quickly.

……

After listening to Wu Zetian's narration, Di Renjie couldn't help taking a deep breath: "Is this how Prince Zhanghuai died?"

Wang Mang, who was following behind, couldn't help but secretly startled at Wu Zetian's cruelty.

Wu Zetian nodded, a tear flowed down her cheek.

Di Renjie let out a long sigh: "Emperor Xiaojing and Prince Zhanghuai are both benevolent, filial, gentle, courteous and kind gentlemen. It is really sad that they were killed so innocently."

As he spoke, tears filled his eyes.
