Uncle Detective Di Renjie, I build a crime-solving team

Chapter 713: Defending Hanguang Temple

Without even raising his head, Kui Wenzhong said:

"Cunxi and I are discussing when he can marry you."

"Before, you always said that betraying Yuan Tiangang was bad, but now you are so happy."

"That's what I said. What's the point of following that old guy? It's better to follow my brother."

Li Cunxi coughed dryly and was too weak to speak.

His brother was quite cruel. Yuan Tiangang was the founder of Snake Spirit after all. He had to kill him if he wanted to. He had no idea where the little friendship they had was going.

"If Yuan Tiangang knows how to advance and retreat, it's not impossible to use him."

Li Cunxi rubbed his hands and was very interested in the famous stargazing master.

You know, people with this kind of special ability are quite rare in this era.

"Let's talk about it when we meet again. You might not even like that old guy."

"He was so weird back then that he even dared to fool the emperor. What if he fooled you?"

Kui Wenzhong picked his teeth with the nail of his little finger, his eyes full of worry.

My younger brother is a simple and honest person. What should I do if he is fooled by Yuan Tiangang, that old Bidden?

For the sake of his younger brother's safety, as his older brother, he had no choice but to prevent Yuan Tiangang from fooling his younger brother.

Kui Wenzhong's eyes moved slightly, and murderous intent filled his eyes.

Yuan Tiangang, who was far away in the basement of Hanguang Temple outside Luoyang City, suddenly shivered. A chill rose from his back and rushed straight to the top of his head, making him feel as if he was in an ice cellar.

"Strange, why does it seem like someone is watching me?"

……

Two days passed in a flash, and the emperor was going to pay homage to Hanguang Temple tomorrow. The officials and soldiers involved, both big and small, were making final preparations.

Huan Bin, the general of the Qianniu Guard who was highly trusted by the emperor, had already set out for Hanguang Temple at noon to make arrangements there.

The emperor's trusted and beloved general Hu Jinghui was also ready and went into the palace first to accompany Wu Zetian.

All the prime ministers gathered in the government hall to quickly review the government affairs of the past few days. In order to ensure that nothing was missed, relevant officials were also invited to the government hall for questioning one by one.

Everyone was busy, except Wu Chengsi, who watched striptease all night and slept all day as usual. When it was dark, he crawled out of bed and went to the bathroom to take a shower and change clothes.

After everything was tidied up, Wu Chengsi entered the Taichu Palace. He first met Wu Zetian, and then entered the government hall, smiling at everyone.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone."

Wu Chengsi chuckled and swaggered to his seat, waiting for Wu Sansi to give up his position.

Wu Sansi, who was sitting next to Li Cunxi, was very helpless, but he had to give up his precious seat to Wu Chengsi.

His seat was the second to the left of Li Cunxi. No one else was sitting there, so he just moved his butt and easily returned to his seat.

Wu Chengsi took the tea from a subordinate, sat down and began to taste the tea.

Everyone who can work here understands Wu Chengsi's character, and they will not push the government affairs in their hands to Wu Chengsi, but will start to deal with them on their own.

Wu Chengsi, who was now free, just stuck his head out and looked around. After a while, he felt bored and began to close his eyes to rest.

When he woke up again, it was already pitch black outside.

Wu Chengsi stretched himself and said:

"Everyone, this is really too hard."

"It's been so long, and you haven't finished processing it yet."

Wu Sansi looked up, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes, but in the end he was unable to argue with Wu Chengsi and lowered his head silently.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry."

"I've been here before, and I've been here before."

Li Cunxi held his forehead with one hand and said:

"Master, why don't you take all these things from me and take a look at them."

"I'm really tired today."

Wu Chengsi was originally planning to take another nap, but after hearing this, he immediately raised his hand and took the things in front of Li Cunxi in front of him.

"If it were someone else, they wouldn't even think about asking me to do this."

"But if it were you, I would be willing to be your teacher."

"Let me see what these are."

Li Cunxi chuckled, stood up, and pushed all the writing brushes, inkstones, and inkstones in front of him to Wu Sansi.

"Teacher, take your time. There's no need to rush. After all, we can't finish processing these things tonight. We can continue after the incense offering at Hanguang Temple is over."

Wu Chengsi smiled but said nothing, just kept his head down and looked at government affairs.

Even though he hadn't dealt with these things for a long time, Wu Chengsi still had some foundation after all, and was much better than Li Cunxi, who was a half-baked man.

With the addition of Wu Chengsi, everyone handled government affairs much faster. Li Cunxi was happy to have some free time, so he immediately got up and left the government hall to ask the officials under him for food and drink.

Di Renjie and Zhang Jianzhi looked at each other and smiled.

"Being able to sit here for most of the day is beyond my expectation."

"In the past, His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin was eager to hand over all government affairs to us, but today he is really surprising."

"Yeah, Cunxi didn't have such a good temper before."

"People always change, my benefactor. His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin is very different now than before."

Zhang Jianzhi put down his pen, his eyes full of admiration.

Before Li Cunxi entered the Council of State, many officials in the court expressed their dissatisfaction with Li Cunxi.

This situation did not change even after Li Cunxi became King of Qin.

Although all the officials were afraid of Li Cunxi's status and did not dare to speak out openly, they criticized him behind his back.

Come to think of it, how could an exile who got promoted and made money by solving cases have the ability to govern a country?

This is also the reason why Di Renjie forced the emperor to keep Li Cunxi in the court years ago.

Zhang Jianzhi has noticed Li Cunxi's progress over the past six months.

All I can say is that there is a reason why the Crown Prince and the Prince of Xiang retreat behind the scenes.

"Lord, now..."

Zhang Jianzhi suddenly thought of something, slowly lowered his head, and involuntarily glanced at Wu Sansi from the corner of his eye.

"Hahahaha, Jianzhi, there's a long way to go."

Di Renjie stroked his beard lightly and smiled complacently.

"My sons are now on the right path. I hope they have a promising future. I can say that my life is complete."

"Don't say that, benefactor."

Zhang Jianzhi's expression changed drastically: "What do you mean by perfect? That's not the right thing to say."

……

At this moment, in Hanguang Temple.

General Huan Bin of the Qianniu Guard had already made the defense arrangements. After thoroughly checking all the monks, he came to the outside of a courtyard at the back of Hanguang Temple.

This is a small courtyard, but the houses around it are unique and quite luxurious.

Several middle-aged men who looked like gangsters were guarding outside and not letting anyone in.

"Such a pure, peaceful and harmonious place turned out to be such a filthy den."

Huan Bin frowned, not knowing what to do with the Flower Monk here.

As the general leading the emperor's personal guard, he naturally knew that this was Huaiyi's residence.

After a long time, he took a step forward and said loudly:

"General Huan Bin of the Qianniu Guard is here. Why don't you pay your respects to him?"
