Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 187 The real conspiracy

"plague!"

Li Yuanfang was shocked.

Wang Mang nodded: "Do you still remember the conversation we had with the adults before we left?"

Li Yuanfang asked, "What are you talking about?"

Such a picture flashed in Wang Mang's mind.

The main hall of Di Mansion.

Di Renjie nodded: "Yes, in fact, I still have a vague feeling that you didn't realize that we solved this case a little too quickly? It seems, it seems..."

Wang Mang continued: "It seems that someone arranged it!"

"Arranged?"

Zeng Tai stood up.

Wang Mang nodded: "Think about it, even if King Liang is fighting with the crown prince, Princess Taiping doesn't have overwhelming strength. How can he deal with these two people? Those who are loyal to these two are the generals in charge of the military. Princess Taiping Could it be possible to get rid of these two people just by relying on the power of Yinlong?"

Di Renjie frowned: "Think about it again, the Youzhou case and the Huzhou case that we solved before, didn't take ten and a half months to make progress, but we only took a few days for the Bloody Eagle case." It took only a few days to find out, don't you feel that all this seems to have come too easily?"

……

Li Yuanfang nodded.

Wang Mang said: "At that time I wondered how they came to get rid of King Liang and the crown prince, but now I understand."

Li Yuanfang wondered: "Jing Yang, don't tempt me anymore, what is their purpose?"

Wang Mang said: "I think Xu Guzi wants to use the plague to get rid of the army of King Liang and the crown prince. Just think about it, once the army gets the plague, then..."

Li Yuanfang gasped when he heard this.

After a long time, he realized: "But how can they control the plague?"

Wang Mang smiled: "This is the purpose of Xu Guzi's experiment, he must be developing an antidote."

Li Yuanfang finally understood: "You mean, Xu Guzi first spread the plague, and then used the antidote in his hand to control the army."

Wang Mang nodded solemnly.

Li Yuanfang let out a long breath: "Fortunately, he didn't succeed! Otherwise, the world will be in chaos."

Wang Mang said, "I will tell your lord what happened here immediately."

Li Yuanfang nodded: "I think so, Jing Yang, you stay here, and I will tell the adults."

Wang Mang nodded: "Brother Yuanfang, you have to go and come back quickly!"

Li Yuanfang nodded heavily.

After Li Yuanfang left, Wang Mang had nothing to do, and he slowly wandered around in the underground secret room.

Suddenly, a crystal coffin placed on the ground caught Wang Mang's attention, and he walked over slowly.

"Hey! This coffin seems to be a little bigger than the others."

Wang Mang looked at the crystal coffin containing the corpse and muttered to himself.

His eyes moved down slowly, something seemed to be suppressed under the crystal coffin, and a ray of white was exposed.

Wang Mang exercised enough internal strength, and slowly moved the crystal coffin away, revealing this wisp of white.

He picked it up and saw that it was a piece of animal skin, and he didn't know what kind of animal it was.

He unfolded it and saw that there was nothing on the hide except a few spots of dust.

Wang Mang frowned in doubt, and murmured, "It must have been a few years ago, why is there nothing?"

He took the torch and looked at it over and over for a long time, but he didn't see what happened. After thinking about it, he put it in his arms, ready to go back and look again.

"By the way, Xu Guzi!"

Wang Mang remembered that Xu Guzi's body seemed to be still outside, so it's better to drag him in. If he is eaten by wolves outside, don't explain it.

Thinking of this, Wang Mang hurried out of the cave.

When Wang Mang came outside the cave, the sky was already dark.

Wang Mang saw Xu Guzi's body lying quietly on the ground at a glance.

He dragged Xu Guzi's body and walked into the cave, preparing to put Xu Guzi into the underground laboratory.

It's just that Wang Mang just pulled up Xu Guzi's body, and a bead-shaped object fell out of Xu Guzi's mouth.

The cyan beads were not very big, but slightly larger than the glass beads Wang Mang had seen children playing with in his previous life.

"Huh! What is this?"

Wang Mang looked at the turquoise bead curiously.

Although the cyan round bead fell out of Xu Guzi's mouth, it was strange that there was no saliva on the bead.

Wang Mang picked it up, looked at the cyan bead, and was puzzled for a long time.

"Put it away first! Maybe it will be useful!"

Wang Mang could only comfort himself like this.

Then, he carried Xu Guzi's body to the laboratory and waited quietly.

……

It wasn't until dusk that day that Wang Mang saw Li Yuanfang and Di Renjie coming here with the imperial guards.

"Brother Yuanfang, you're here, I'm staying here, I'm about to starve to death!"

Wang Mang complained.

Di Renjie smiled: "Jing Yang, don't blame Yuan Fang, it's me, the old man, who slows down Yuan Fang's pace."

Li Yuanfang smiled and said: "Jing Yang, it's okay for us martial arts practitioners to skip a meal or two."

Di Renjie shook his head: "Okay, Jing Yang, take me to have a look first, and after this is over, I'll treat you to a good meal."

"Really?"

Li Yuanfang's eyes lit up: "It's very difficult to take advantage of adults, let's make an agreement, no reneging on debts is allowed!"

Wang Mang smiled and said, "Brother Yuanfang, my lord will not renege on his debts, so don't worry!"

Di Renjie said with a smile: "I just want to renege on my debt, but after hearing what Jing Yang said of you, I can't do it."

Wang Mang said: "Okay, my lord, you come with me!"

Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang nodded and followed.

After Di Renjie saw the scene in the underground laboratory, he slammed the lid of the crystal coffin: "This beast!"

Wang Mang said: "My lord, I mean burn all these people, if there is any plague or something, it will be terrible!"

Di Renjie nodded, and said to Li Yuanfang: "Let the guards move carefully, and don't break it."

Li Yuanfang nodded slightly, and shouted: "All the soldiers obey the order, carry out these crystal coffins, be careful!"

"Yes!"

All the troops responded with a crash.

Di Renjie watched the soldiers move the crystal coffin, and said, "Jing Yang, Yuan Fang, we said the morning before yesterday that Princess Taiping was not the mastermind, so do you think this Xu Guzi is the mastermind?"

Suddenly, Wang Mang thought of Yang Qingqing, he frowned and remained silent.

Li Yuanfang said: "My lord, Jing Yang and I discovered that Xu Guzi wanted to use the plague to destroy the King of Liang and the Crown Prince. Isn't this his ultimate goal?"

Di Renjie raised his head: "What's the motive?"

"This……"

Li Yuanfang couldn't continue.

Wang Mang said, "Could it be that he wants Princess Taiping to be on the throne?"

Di Renjie took a deep look at Wang Mang, and murmured, "Is this really the case?"

Suddenly, Li Yuanfang thought of something, and asked, "By the way, who killed Uncle Pang Jiu and He Yun?"

Di Renjie let out a long sigh: "That's right, with the death of Xu Guzi, these have become an eternal mystery!"

Wang Mang had some guesses in his heart, but he didn't say it out. Instead, he said with a smile, "I guess it might be because of their internal strife. Seeing Xu Guzi's appearance, I don't know why he did this. Maybe it's something abnormal in his heart. !"

Li Yuanfang nodded: "Yes, my lord, in my opinion, this Xu Guzi is not a good person, he probably wants to bring disaster to the world before he dies!"

Di Renjie heaved a sigh of relief: "Okay, since Xu Guzi is dead, it means that the case is completely over, and we can finally have a good night's sleep!"

Wang Mang smiled and said, "Yeah, I've been exhausted these days! I should take a good rest."

Di Renjie smiled without saying a word.
