After leaving Dali Temple Prison, Li Zhen immediately came to the Dali Temple official office and handed a post to the soldiers guarding the gate.

At this time, Li Zhen had already changed into a light blue robe, tied a leather belt, and wore a soap suit of a prisoner. I'm afraid no one would pay attention to him, and the soldiers would not help him pass the post.

After a moment, a civil servant walked out of the gate of the government office and bowed and said, "Please follow me for your help."

Dali Temple is like other government offices. It runs through all buildings with a central axis, and the officials' heads are distributed along the central axis. The innermost part is the heads of Dali Temple Ministers.

Li Zhen wanted to find Sun Li and entered the second yard. There were three official rooms on each side, which were the official rooms of six Dali Temple Chiefs.

In the archive rooms on both sides, files of various cases are piled up, and Dali Temple Chief needs to re-examine and verify the matter one by one, which is a huge workload.

When Di Renjie was young, he became the Minister of Dali Temple, and handled a large number of unjust cases, which won him a reputation.

The civil servant brought Li Zhen to an official room. He asked Li Zhen to wait outside and went in to report, "Envoy, Mr. Li has brought it."

"Please come in!"

Li Zhen tidied up his clothes and quickly walked into the official room. There was a person sitting in the room, which was Sun Li.

There were also small hills of files piled up on his desk. Although he was in charge of the jail, he also had to participate in the review of old cases. He was under great pressure every day and was not at all relaxed.

Sun Li is tall and tall, and is also a very smart and capable person. Although his father has his own skills, he must be successful himself, otherwise Dali Temple would not accept him.

Li Zhen stepped forward and bowed, "See Envoy Sun!"

Sun Li put down his pen and asked with a smile: "How is Mr. Li doing in Dali prison?"

"Thank you for your help this time."

Sun Li waved his hand and smiled, "It's nothing. If you hadn't saved me, I would have died in Dunhuang. Where is the place where I am today? Please sit down!"

Li Zhen sat down, and Sun Li ordered the civil servant to serve tea again. Li Zhen took a sip of the tea, and then asked tentatively: "Can I take a look at the file from the Prime Minister Di?"

Sun Li pondered for a moment, took a file from under the table and handed it to Li Zhen, "Let's read it here, don't take it away!"

Li Zhen took the file and opened it, and found the detailed description of the case.

Sun Li was also a little nervous because Di Renjie's case was subject to trial by the Grand Third Department, so his case materials were copied in three copies and reported to the Censorate, the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple respectively.

The file must be reported to the Dali Temple Minister immediately, but Sun Li guessed that Li Zhen wanted to read it, so he privately seized the file. However, he had to report it today.

While drinking tea, Li Zhen looked through the details of the case. Soon he saw what he wanted. The monk Yun Xuan died when he touched the Buddhist scriptures. His whole body was golden and stiff as a stone. As expected, it was the same as the death of a monk in Tocharia.

At this time, Sun Li slowly walked to Li Zhen, handed him a roll of paper, and whispered: "This is a detailed account of the case I copied Yu, please hold it!"

Li Zhen was overjoyed. He still wanted to read many details, but he didn't have time. With this copy, he could take it back and read it carefully.

Li Zhen immediately put away the paper roll, returned the file to him, stood up and bowed, "Li Zhen remembers the help of Sun Jun."

Sun Li nodded with a smile, "Go quickly!"

Li Zhen said goodbye and left, and then Sun Li walked quickly to the official room of the Dali Temple Minister with the file.

.........

It was almost evening when Li Zhen was worried and hurried back to the prison. He was still a little far from the gate. He saw Di Yan asking a prisoner from afar. He couldn't help but speed up.

At this time, the prison officer saw Li Zhen and pointed at him and said with a smile: "He is here!"

Di Yan saw Li Zhen and hurriedly ran over, "Brother Li, how is my father's situation?"

This silly girl, can you ask about such a thing at the door of the prison?

Li Zhen smiled and said, "It's hard to talk about here, come with me!"

Li Zhen took her out of the imperial city through the side door, walked into the Qinghuafang opposite the imperial city and found a tavern. The bartender warmly greeted her, "Welcome to the small shop for dinner!"

“Can there be a quieter single room?”

"Yes! Yes! On the second floor, please follow me."

Although Di Yan was anxious, Li Zhen ignored her and she had no choice but to follow Li Zhen to the second floor, and the two of them entered the single room and sat down.

Li Zhen said to the bartender: "Some of meat and three vegetables, you can do it yourself, and have another pot of wine."

"Okay! Come soon."

The bartender left, and Di Yan knocked on the table and urged: "Tell me quickly, I'm really anxious!"

Li Zhen smiled and told Di Yan in detail what happened today. Di Yan was stunned when she heard it. It turned out that the hand-written Buddhist scriptures that Ouyang Xun bought in Liangzhou were actually a trap.

"I want to kill that bald abbot!" Di Yan gritted her teeth in hatred.

"Let's talk about the matter in Liangzhou! I've found some clues this afternoon."

Di Yan was overjoyed, "What clue?"

"I'm afraid I really know something about this."

Li Zhen once again told Yun Xuan's poisoning and the poisoning of the Tochar monk, and finally said: "If I'm not wrong, Lan Zhenyu brought this poison back from Tochar and gave it to Wu Shun, and Wu Shun gave it to Wu Chengsi again.

As long as we can obtain evidence that Wu Chengsi has this poison, even if Ling Zun cannot prove his innocence, at least the emperor will be suspicious."

Di Yan nodded, "You are right, my brother said, the emperor does not believe that my father wants to poison her. It is just that the evidence is not good for my father, so he must be strictly examined. As long as it is proved that Wu Chengsi has this poison, the emperor will not kill my father if he knows it."

Li Zhen pondered for a moment and said, "The key is that Wu Shun is dead, so only Lan Zhenyu can prove this poison. It is probably not that easy to find Lan Zhenyu first and force him to agree to testify!"

Di Yan's heart also became heavy. What should I do?

...........

Due to a poisoning case in the palace yesterday, the death of the monk Yun Xuan, causing panic in the palace. Wu Zetian was in a bad mood and temporarily stopped preparing for her birthday.

Gao Yanfu was busy for half a month and finally got the opportunity to take a breath and go home to rest for a day.

Gao Yanfu was sitting in the study drinking tea and reading a book. At this time, his adopted son Gao Lishi hurriedly came to report, "Father, Mr. Li has something urgent to ask for a meeting!"

It was a coincidence that he happened to be at home. Gao Yanfu laughed and said, "Please come to my study!"

Soon, Gao Lishi led Li Zhen to the study, "Father, he is here!"

"Please come in!"

The door opened, Li Zhen walked in, he stepped forward and bowed, "See the Lord of the Mansion!"

"Please sit down for Mr. Li."

Li Zhen sat down and apologized, "I'm so sorry to disturb the rest of the mansion so late."

"It's nothing, you probably don't know I'm at home."

Gao Yanfu asked the maid to serve Li Zhen again, and he said calmly: "Young Master is worried about the King of Wei?"

Li Zhen didn't know how to speak. Logically, Gao Yanfu was Wu Chengsi's man, so it was a bit inappropriate for him to talk to Gao Yanfu about Di Renjie's case.

Maybe Gao Yanfu is the one who poisoned the palace, but Li Zhen repeatedly considered it. Gao Yanfu should not know about this matter, even if he knew about it, it had nothing to do with him.

It's very simple. If Wu Chengsi was in trouble, Gao Yanfu might have a love affair for him, but if he wanted to poison people, how could he be Wu Chengsi's pawn with Gao Yanfu?

So after Li Zhen repeatedly considered it, he still had to ask Gao Yanfu about some things, but his own affairs were not finished yet and he was involved in Di Renjie's case, so it was difficult for him to explain to Gao Yanfu.

Li Zhen had to bite the bullet and said, "I came to see the Du Jun tonight to find out what is the case of the Prime Minister in Di's name in the palace?"

Sure enough, Gao Yanfu frowned slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, but he still asked in a very gentle tone: "Young Master asks what to do about this?"

"I asked me to inquire. My daughter from the Prime Minister Di is friends."

Gao Yanfu laughed, "It turns out it's that little girl, so it's understandable."

Gao Yanfu then smiled and sighed and said, "The consequences of this incident are very serious. Not only the emperor was furious, but also General Xue was furious. He insisted that Di Xiangguo not only wanted to harm the emperor, but also wanted to harm him.

He asked the emperor to kill Di Xiang immediately. Anyway, the palace was in chaos, and more than a dozen palace maids and eunuchs had been executed for this incident."

Li Zhen was speechless. It seemed that this matter was indeed very serious.

Gao Yanfu said again: "However, Di Renjie has been a prime minister for many years, and his character and reputation are worthy of praise. The emperor does not believe that he will poison him, but rather suspects that he is being used by others.

Therefore, the emperor did not agree to General Xue’s request to kill Di Xiang, and issued an order to let the Grand Third Department try the case, and the case will not end so soon."

"The foreign ministers offer birthday gifts, and the palace must check it. I wonder what the person who checks is now?"

"You mean Luo Zhongcheng! He was responsible for checking the birthday ceremony, but I heard that he was dead, Mr. Li, let me tell you the truth, no one who has been exposed to Buddhist scriptures can survive, do you understand?"

Li Zhen sighed in his heart, and he was indeed guessed that Wu Chengsi killed someone to silence him.

At this time, Gao Yanfu tactfully advised him: "This matter is difficult to get back. I hope you can stay out of it and not participate again."

Li Zhen smiled bitterly, "Miss Di is very worried that someone will take the opportunity to assassinate Di Xiang in prison, so he specially asked me to go to prison to protect Di Xiang. If the Lord of the Mansion can remind the emperor, maybe I won't have to participate in this matter."

Li Zhen wanted to investigate the case outside, and he was worried that it would be difficult to support only Jiu Zhi, and it would be best if Wu Zetian could send a capable guard to protect Di Renjie.

Gao Yanfu understood what Li Zhen meant, smiled and said, "I'll see the opportunity! If the emperor is in a good mood, I'll mention it."

At this time, Gao Lishi next to him interjected: "Father, why don't you send Babao and the others!"

Babao is Gao Yanfu's personal bodyguard, with eight people in total, each of whom is very skilled in martial arts. Gao Lishi was worried about Li Zhen's safety, so he suggested that the Gao Mansion guards protect Di Renjie.

Without waiting for Gao Yanfu to express his opinion, Li Zhen waved his hand quickly, "The Di family will deal with this matter, and there is no need for the Duke to intervene."

Gao Yanfu did not avoid it and smiled faintly: "It's not impossible to let Babao and the others go, but things will become more complicated. Others thought it was me, Gao Yanfu, who was picking up Di Renjie in the palace. Now everyone in the palace is in danger, so I am the same!"

"Jun Gao Fujun, don't worry about this matter. I would like to ask, when will the King of Wei offer relics?"
