Chapter o53    Seven years, the wind and clouds are rising (Part 2)!

At this time, there was also chaos in Luoyang City.

It turned out that Wu Zetian allowed Li Xian Zhongzong to ascend the throne without authorization, but she still caused dissatisfaction among the Wang clan relatives!

Although Zhongzong was the legitimate son of Emperor Gaozong and Wu Zetian's biological son, he was cowardly and could not become a talented person. If he had been in a peaceful and prosperous era, he would not have had a great ups and downs.

But now it is a chaotic world.

Tubo in the northwest, Nanzhao in the southwest, Goryeo in the northeast, and Fuyu in the northwest were eyeing each other, and there were also parties in the country.

At this time, Li Xian ascended the throne, which obviously cannot be said to be beneficial to the Tang Dynasty, and Wu Zetian was of course standing on the side of his own son and confronting the old forces of the royal family.

In this way, the princes and marquis even took out the old accounts that Wu Zetian had violated the laws of the dictatorship of Emperor Gaozong and the Queen of Heaven!

For a moment, all forces were at a loss, and it seemed that the battle was about to reach a close!

One night.

Li Xiao, the cousin of Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi, gave a banquet for ministers in the palace to discuss ways to deal with the queen and Li Xian together.

At this moment, the bronze warrior suddenly appeared and entered the banquet with the purpose of taking Li Xiao's life.

However, Di Renjie suddenly fell from the sky and saved Li Xiao's life.

What followed was Yuchi Zhenjin, who arrived in time and was amazed to see Di Renjie stopping the bronze doll.

But he looked at Yuchi coldly because Di Renjie asked him why so many bronze murders occurred when he was not in Luoyang, the capital of Shendu.

Why is the dignified Yuchi Zhenjin really so helpless? Why doesn’t Yuchi let the noble royal family transfer in advance?

Faced with these numerous questions, Yuchi couldn't answer correctly. He only said that his left arm was injured and his injury had not healed. He was no match for these Bronze Man invincible.

Hearing this, Di Renjie rose up in anger. He accidentally picked Yuchi Zhenjin's cloak, and found that his left arm had already been healed!

When Yuchi Zhenjin saw that his secret was revealed, he became angry and fought with Di Renjie.

At the same time, Wu Zetian and Zhongzong arrived!

Di Renjie turned to Wu Zetian and questioned her if she knew the whole story of the case. She naturally pretended not to know.

Later, after someone investigated, this matter was also inseparable from the Queen!

When Wu Zetian was about to detain Yuchi, Di Renjie sneered and pointed the finger at the queen of heaven and stated the clues he searched out one by one.

At this moment, the truth is revealed.

It turned out that the queen of heaven used the bronze man left by Li Shimin when she fought in all directions, and used the bronze man to kill those who opposed her and eliminate dissidents. Her accomplice was Yuchi Zhenjin!

Let Yuchi Zhenjin gather them together intentionally or unintentionally, and then use the bronze man to borrow a knife to kill people!

Afterwards, the queen of heaven was killed on the grounds that Yuchi Zhenjin rebelled against the thief.

Sha Tuozhong sentenced accomplice to kill one hand and demoted the minor official of the staff department to do chores.

At this time, Emperor Zhongzong of Tang Li Xian was cowardly and incompetent. After ascending the throne as emperor, he became increasingly deprived of the government. Empress Wei, who had been with him in the harem all day, ignored nothing.

Due to the fact that the ministers gathered in private and had different thoughts, the situation changed drastically. Zhongzong Li Xian was expelled from the throne by Wu Zetian on the grounds that "the country was incompetent, which harmed the people and caused people's grievances."

Wu Zetian continued to strengthen his iron-fisted policy in politics, and at the same time, he continued to come to his own party with knowledgeable people across the country, and was in a strong position to take over the power.

It was a peaceful and prosperous era, and the Tang Dynasty opened its doors and all countries came to pay tribute.

Di Renjie, who had just been promoted to Dali Temple Chief, usually takes charge of criminal law, is responsible for public security and rectification, and eliminates corrupt elements among officials. It is all about daily work and nothing major.

After all, Di Renjie knew in his heart that his work and his dreams were just to protect Luoyang, the capital of the gods that he always dreamed about, and to protect the national veins of the Tang Dynasty.

As for the internal struggle of the royal family and the formation of sects, he actually did not want to participate too much.

However, he also knew very well that the current balance was extremely fragile, and sooner or later, the queen would make a comeback.

However, this day has indeed come.

It didn't take long.

When Di Renjie investigated Emperor Li Zhi and died of poisoning, the queen of the divine was suspected of intervening.

This silly child is too straightforward and cannot tolerate sand in his eyes. He immediately ran to the queen and questioned him in person.

The queen took this opportunity to slander Di Renjie and others as rebels and oppose Wu Zetian's leadership of the government and was dismissed and sent to prison in one fell swoop, and allowed him to burn expired memorials in prison to serve his sentence.

Wu Zetian's move was of obvious significance, which was to allow Di Renjie to see with his own eyes the talent of governing the country after he was imprisoned so that he could use it for her in the future.

She ignored Di Renjie's death and kept silent about whether it was related to her when he asked many times.

In a blink of an eye, half a year has passed.

·   ······························

One day, Wu Zetian officially announced the construction of the 33-zhang Tongtian Buddha statue.

And when the statue of the god is built, it will be the day when she ascends the throne!

...

Six years later.

An unusual thing happened in Luoyang City - a bizarre murder case.

What is unusual about it is the murder case and the death of the death.

The deceased was an important official of the court and Jia Yi, the Minister of Works of the Ministry of Works. The death was in the unfinished Tongtian Buddha.

Just like this, in front of everyone, a fire suddenly ignited all over his body, and it turned into ashes in a moment, and was extremely shocked.

There was a rumor circulating between the city and officials that when Lord Jia was inspecting Tongtianfutu, he removed the peace talisman that the 6 Li Taoist put on the Tongtian pillar, which violated the power of heaven and was punished by heaven.

.....     …

This incident caused a lot of controversy and panic.

...

There is a prison in Luoyang City called Black Prison.

In this prison, the bottom and deepest cell is invisible all year round.

There is a huge stove in the cell.

The fire in this stove will never be extinguished all year round, and the black smoke that steams out of the stove will never be dissipated all year round.

If someone approaches, you will feel a little uncomfortable with your mouth and nose, especially your eyes, which are so dry and painful that they are so painful that they are almost shedding tears.

On this day, Di Renjie, as usual, had to read the memorial before burning it.

When he saw Wu Zetian ascending the throne and becoming emperor, he frowned tightly, was stunned for a moment, then walked to the prison door and knocked on the bronze door rhythmically.

He immediately called Li Yuanfang, the guard outside the door.

I saw that he was covered in rags, his eyes seemed to be blind, and his hands and feet were locked by long chains, making it very inconvenient to walk.

Because Li Yuanfang had received great kindness from Di Renjie, in order to repay this kindness, after Di Renjie was imprisoned, he followed him to become the jail guard here after several twists and turns.

Of course, it seems that others are not aware of their relationship.

Hearing the secret communication, Li Yuanfang immediately rushed over and said respectfully.

"Sir, what are your instructions?"

"Of course I have something to give!"

Through the portal, under the faint moonlight.

Di Renjie's sloppy and unkempt face, and his expression slightly condensed suddenly showed up.
