Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 306 Wen Zhong
After Wang Mang left the side hall, he saw Xiao Tao who was waiting for him.

When Xiaotao saw Wang Mang coming out, her eyes lit up: "Brother, when shall we go back?"

Wang Mang sighed: "The emperor asked you to accompany her for a few days, so you can stay in the palace for a while!"

Xiaotao rolled her eyes, realized, and snorted lightly: "Why did the emperor ask me to accompany her? He obviously didn't believe you!"

Wang Mang said: "That's fine, once I start a war with the snake spirit, you won't be safe by my side, so you can stay in the palace!"

Xiaotao sighed and pouted her lips: "Okay, who will make the emperor the biggest!"

Wang Mang patted Xiaotao's head, and comforted him, "Other people want to enter the palace, but they won't let them in. You're fine, and you're disgusted."

Xiaotao looked at Wang Mang quietly, and said softly, "I don't care about the palace or not, I just want to be with you."

Xiaomei and Xiaofeng flashed through Wang Mang's mind, slightly moved Xiaotao's eyes away, and said: "Okay, you can stay in the palace for a few days, I still have things to do."

Xiaotao said dissatisfiedly: "It was agreed that I would pretend to be the emperor, but in the end the emperor didn't pretend to be the emperor, but I was going to live in the palace instead."

Wang Mang smiled and said, "Okay, Xiaotao, I know you have been wronged, how about I make a hot pot myself to make up for you later?"

When she heard about the food, Xiaotao's eyes lit up: "That's a deal, you can't go back on your word."

Wang Mang smiled: "When have I lied to you?"

"Hmph! Have you lied to me less often?"

Xiaotao snorted softly.

"Since when did Wang Hou lie to others?"

Suddenly, Shangguan Wan'er's voice came from behind the two of them.

Wang Mang turned around and said with a smile: "It turns out that you are a talented Shangguan, Xiaotao will trouble you these days!"

Xiaotao turned around: "Sister Shangguan!"

Shangguan Wan'er smiled: "Master Hou is serious, I also like Xiaotao very much, besides, since Xiaotao recognizes me as an older sister, I as an older sister can't let her be bullied."

Wang Mang said: "In that case, I will take my leave. I still have some things to discuss with Mr. Di!"

Shangguan Wan'er smiled slightly: "Master Hou, go slowly!"

Wang Mang smiled slightly, turned and left.

……

Night, Di Mansion.

Di Renjie sat in the study, carefully examining the hexagonal wooden sign that Shining gave him in Hanguang Temple.

On the front of the wooden sign was engraved a strangely shaped python, and on the back was engraved the word "loyalty" in large seals.

Suddenly, he remembered a conversation with Xiao Qingfang in the main room of the main altar that night——

Xiao Qingfang said: "The reason why we use the name 'Snake Spirit' is because the people in the organization were all brutally persecuted by Wu Zetian. Like Hu Jinghui, whose surname is Pi."

Di Renjie gasped: "Are they all descendants of the Li, Wang, and Xiao surnames that the emperor killed?"

Xiao Qingfang nodded: "Not only that, but also the descendants of those ministers who were killed by her for no reason. Therefore, there are countless people who can use the 'Snake Spirit'."

Thinking of this, Di Renjie's eyes lit up. He looked at the wooden sign in his hand, with a smile on his face, and said to himself: "So it is like this!"

"Squeak" the door sounded, Li Yuanfang walked in softly, put the teacup on the table, turned around and walked towards the door.

"Yuan Fang."

Li Yuanfang stopped.

Di Renjie handed over the wooden sign in his hand and said, "Look at this."

Li Yuanfang asked curiously: "What is this?"

Di Renjie said: "Shining gave it to me, and it has his name on it."

Li Yuanfang hurriedly took the wooden sign under the lamp to look at it carefully, then raised his head and said, "The word 'loyalty' is engraved on the lower right corner of the wooden signboard, it seems that Shining Spirit's real name is 'loyalty'."

Di Renjie nodded: "What's your last name?"

Li Yuanfang looked at the wooden sign in his hand and shook his head.

Di Renjie said, "His surname is Bi."

Li Yuanfang was taken aback: "Oh, how do you know?"

Di Renjie pointed to the wooden sign and said, "Of course the wooden sign told me."

Li Yuanfang looked at the wooden sign in his hand: "No, no."

"Brother Yuanfang, Shining Ling's original surname is the same as yours."

A voice came from outside the door, Li Yuanfang turned around and said with a smile: "Jing Yang, it's you"

Li Yuanfang was stunned: "H-his surname is Li?"

Di Renjie turned around: "Jing Yang, you are here."

Wang Mang nodded: "My lord, brother Yuanfang, Shining not only has a surname of Li, but he is also a descendant of the royal family with the surname Li."

Li Yuanfang suddenly exclaimed: "What, he, he is a descendant of the royal family surnamed Li?"

Di Renjie glanced at Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang, and nodded slightly: "Exactly. More than ten years ago, after the rebellion of the Three Kings subsided, a group of princes surnamed Li, including Yuan Jia, Ling Kui, and Li Ai, joined the rebellion. He was executed or exiled for the crime, and the emperor ordered them to change Li's surname to the surname."

Li Yuanfang asked strangely: "Xu, why did you change your surname to Xun?"

Di Renjie took back the wooden plaque from Yuan Fang's hand, pointed to the strange python carved on the front, and said, "Pi is a kind of extremely poisonous giant python according to legend. Like a poisonous snake, it plots against the sky.

Second, the sound of the voice is the same as remorse, to warn the descendants of those princes, not to follow the path of the ancestors, but to know the destiny and repent. "

Only then did Li Yuanfang understand: "Then, the name of this Shining Spirit should be Hui Wenzhong."

Di Renjie nodded and turned his head: "Jing Yang, can you talk about the Shining?"

Wang Mang nodded slightly: "Sir, I don't know much, I only know that Shining is the descendant of Huang Guogong Li Ai, and later he went to Dongpu and learned Japanese ninjutsu.

Afterwards he joined Snake Spirit. I don't know exactly how he joined, but it may have something to do with my brother Hu Jinghui. The relationship between the two of them has always been very good. "

Di Renjie nodded slightly: "So that's the case. I never thought that Shining Ling is the descendant of Huang Guogong and Li Ai!"

Li Yuanfang said, "That's why you let him go today?"

Di Renjie shook his head: "I just thought of his last name."

Li Yuanfang asked strangely: "Then, my lord, why did you let Shining go away today?"

Di Renjie looked at Wang Mang with a half-smile, "Jing Yang, what do you think?"

Wang Mang coughed lightly: "My lord, it seems that you can see it too."

Li Yuanfang stared blankly at Wang Mang and Di Renjie: "My lord, Jing Yang, what are you two talking about?"

Di Renjie smiled, and looked at Li Yuanfang: "Yuanfang, do you think Shining is really an assassin?"

Li Yuanfang was dumbfounded: "It's hard, isn't it?"

Wang Mang shook his head: "Of course not!"

A bright light flashed in Di Renjie's eyes, and he smiled: "How about this, Yuan Fang, you go and wake up Ruyan. Let's visit Hanguang Temple again and find out the truth of the matter while the night is quiet and no one is disturbing you."

Li Yuanfang was puzzled and said: "Visit Hanguang Temple again?"

Di Renjie nodded.

After Li Yuanfang left, Di Renjie looked at Wang Mang: "Jing Yang, don't you want to say something?"

Wang Mang smiled: "I know I can't hide it from you. Yes, the Shining is indeed not a killer. In fact, their real purpose is far more than that. My lord, you can't know about this for the time being. When the time comes, I will naturally tell you." of."

Di Renjie looked at Wang Mang, then turned his eyes slightly in the direction of Shangyang Palace: "Jing Yang, I understand what you mean."
