Chapter 0076 The fish die and the net breaks

"You bastard!"

In the study, Wu Chengsi was furious and pointed at Lan Zhenyu kneeling on the ground and cursed: "You are so bold that you dare to deceive me. Today I must kill you!"

Lan Zhenyu knelt on the ground and dared not speak. Countless thoughts flashed through her mind, looking for words to defend herself.

"The relics were indeed real at the beginning. I had handed them over to Wu Shun, but why did they become fake relics? What happened in the middle? I really don't know."

"You still dare to argue!"

Wu Chengsi was so angry that he was going crazy. Wu Shun's deception made him feel humiliated today. Wu Shun was dead. He vented all his anger on Lan Zhenyu's head.

He pulled out the sword from the wall and slashed at Lan Zhenyu hard. With a loud bang, another sword blocked Wu Chengsi's sword in time.

Wu Furong appeared in front of her father at some point and shouted excitedly: "Father, what are you going to do?"

Wu Chengsi was shocked, took two steps back, and looked at his daughter in shock, "You...you dare..."

Wu Chengsi didn't know what to say, but his daughter actually used a sword to protect the man. After a while, Wu Chengsi immediately understood and pointed at his daughter and cursed: "Crazy, how dare you threaten me with a sword?"

Wu Furong put away her sword and returned to the sheath, blocked Lan Zhenyu with her body, and said angrily: "Why did your father say this? Lan Zhenyu is a capable general of his daughter. It would be fine if his father didn't need him, but he wanted to kill him. Have you ever considered his daughter's feelings?"

"As a good general!" Wu Chengsi sneered repeatedly, "Tell me, where is he capable?"

"The daughter will let him prove it to her father, but as long as her daughter is in one breath, she will never allow her father to kill him."

Wu Chengsi couldn't help but sit down dejectedly, and his daughter's toughness made him feel a little inexplicable fear.

All the warriors he raised were controlled by his daughter Furong. Furong has always been his most capable helper. Today, for Lan Zhenyu, his daughter is going to turn against him.

"Then what do you think you should do now?" Wu Chengsi grabbed his hair in pain, feeling exhausted.

Wu Furong winked at Lan Zhenyu, and Lan Zhenyu immediately stood up and retreated.

Looking at Lan Zhenyu's back walking away, Wu Furong asked: "I heard that Lai Junchen sent a letter to his father. What is it?"

"The Master has transferred him from Di Renjie's case and asked Zhou Yunyuan to take over."

"That's right. The emperor must have doubts about the Di Renjie case. My father cannot hesitate anymore. He must kill Di Renjie immediately and let him jail the Poison Sutra case. If he doesn't die, he will sooner or later involve his father."

Wu Chengsi thought for a long time and finally nodded, "You are right, I will leave this matter to you."

"Don't worry, my daughter will not let her down."

Wu Furong bowed and turned around and hurried away. At this time, Wu Chengsi's confidant Mr. Ming appeared from the shadow. He asked lightly: "Why did Your Highness tell her only half of the matter? Lai Junchen is not just transferring Di Renjie's case."

Wu Chengsi shook his head, "Don't you see it? She and Lan Zhenyu are so close. If you tell her, Lan Zhenyu will definitely know. If he causes something again, it may be bad for me!"

"Since that's the case, why didn't Your Highness kill him directly?"

"Now if you kill him, Furong will turn against me. Don't worry, let's see the results of Lai Junchen's investigation."

Wu Chengsi walked a few steps behind his hands and asked again: "What do you think Lai Junchen will find?"

Mr. Ming thought for a while and said, "It's really hard to say now, but Lai Junchen is a two-faced person. Your Highness should not trust this person too much. I think it's necessary for Your Highness to send another force to investigate this matter secretly."

"If you send a newcomer, you will pass through Furong, but her..."

"No need to pass Furong, Your Highness can ask Yu Junlong to take action."

"But... Yu Junlong is a member of Wei Tuaner, would she agree?"

Mr. Ming said coldly: "As long as you give Wei Tuaner what he wants, she won't agree to anything?"

"It makes sense, let me think about this matter again."

.........

In another dark room in the Wei Palace, the intense gasps finally subsided. Wu Furong leaned on Lan Zhenyu like a cat, gently stroked his chest with her long jade nails.

"Today, I tried my best to save you. How should you thank me?"

"Didn't I already thank you?"

"You bad guy!"

Wu Furong laughed and said, "You took advantage of me, how could you thank me?"

"Then will I be a thank you for being a three-timer tonight?"

Wu Furong glanced at her charming eyes and said softly: "Three times are still too few, you have to be a man at least five times!"

Lan Zhenyu pinched her neck and cursed with a smile: "You vixen, I know why your husband died now!"

"Press me! I'll kill you, see who will protect you again."

Lan Zhenyu's hand slowly relaxed, and after a while, he said coldly: "You want me to kill Di Renjie, right!"

"It's really smart, but you're only half of it."

Wu Furong's charming expression disappeared in her eyes, and murderous intent burst out. She gritted her teeth and said, "Not only killing Di Renjie, but also his daughter Di Yan, kill me together!"

Lan Zhenyu slowly closed his eyes. This was his habit. Before killing someone, he must close his eyes and rest for half an hour.

.........

There was a nervous atmosphere hidden in Dali Temple Prison. Lai Junchen transferred Di Renjie's case, and Zhou Yunyuan, who was more upright, took over the case.

Li Zhen immediately realized that if legal means cannot be used to eliminate Di Renjie, the other party will inevitably use any means to make Di Renjie "deathful suicide" before the case is accepted.

When the crisis was about to break out, Li Zhen also made corresponding arrangements. He asked Di Yan to change into the prison guard's soap suit and join in the protection of Di Renjie.

But this is far from enough. Li Zhen also asked the Di family to use all their relationships to find help.

At night, the Wu cell in Dali Prison was particularly quiet. Most of the prisoners fell asleep. Only a few prisoners were paced back and forth in the long aisle, patrolling the movements in the cell.

Di Renjie's injury was slightly healed, but he still couldn't move. He lay on the haystack and whispered to the winery who was protecting him close to him.

Jiuzhi also added protection today. He put an armor inside to protect the vital points, increased the flying swords to seven, and also hid a long sword. He was the last level to protect Di Renjie. If he fell down, Di Renjie would be finished.

"Why did Jiu Shaolang hate reading? You should know about martial arts and literary talents in times of troubled times. In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, only reading and learning literature can lead to a way out."

"The old prime minister, some people are talented in studying and can never forget them, but I am born with a poor study, so I dozed off with a book.

My father also said that so many scholars have only a few Jinshi exams every year, so it is better to learn how to kill pigs and sheep. At least it is the skill of supporting a family. It is better than a poor scholar who can’t do anything."

Di Renjie smiled bitterly, "Your father is a straightforward person."

"Actually, I also know that reading is talented and respected. However, if a person who reads has bad intentions, it will harm the people more than a pig-killer."

"This sentence has only three parts of the truth. Whether a person is bad or not has nothing to do with reading, but reading can take power."

.....

Di Renjie was guiding the young man next to him and in the prison guard's rest room, but Li Zhen was considering that the other party might have taken various measures.

Di Yan, wearing a black prison uniform next to him, whispered: "My brother has contacted Jinwu Guard. General Zhang of Jinwu Guard promised to strengthen the inspection of Dali Temple Prison tonight."

Li Zhen nodded. Although the Jinwu Guard patrol was not very effective, it could at least shock the enemy psychologically.

At this time, a prison guard hurriedly said, "The Censor Zhou Zhongcheng is here, and he is going to interrogate the Prime Minister Di!"

Li Zhen frowned, and Zhou Yunyuan interrogated Di Renjie overnight and he could understand, but this would disrupt his deployment.

Di Yan next to him said anxiously: "You can't let him take his father away, you will be ambushed halfway!"

Li Zhen thought about it and delayed Zhou Yunyuan's introduction of Di Renjie's removal on the grounds that Di Renjie was too serious, so it would be better to interrogate him in prison.

"Who else comes together?" Li Zhen asked again.

"There is also Wang Yucheng, who must sign it so that the Censorate can temporarily take away the prisoner."

"Let's go and have a look!"

Wang Deshou was in charge of the entire Dali Temple Prison, and Li Zhen was just a prisoner and had no power to prevent the Censorate from referring to the prisoners.

At this time, the gates of Tianlao Prison opened, and the Chief Censor Zhou Yunyuan walked into the Wu-type prison under the protection of more than a dozen guards.

Zhou Yun was about fifty years old, with a tall and thin figure and a grim expression. He was wearing a fourth-grade scorching court uniform, a gauze hat, and a long sword around his waist. More than a dozen guards were all tall and murderous.

Zhou Yunyuan walked to the last big iron gate and showed the special gold medal for the censor to the prison chief Wang Deshou behind him. Wang Deshou hurriedly ordered: "Open the prison gate and transfer the prison criminal!"

For some reason, Li Zhen always felt that he had seen the Censor Central Chief where he had seen Zhou Yunyuan's eyes make him feel very familiar, but Zhou Yunyuan has lived in Luoyang for a long time and he must have never seen him.

Li Zhen walked forward and bowed, "Report to Wang Zhucheng, without the transfer order you signed, you cannot open the prison door for a low position!"

"asshole!"

Wang Deshou was furious, "This is the Censor Zhou Zhongcheng, has you blinded?"

"I'm sorry, this is the rule of the court. Without the signature of the prison minister, I dare not open the door without authorization."

Wang Deshou gritted his teeth with hatred, but there was no choice but to say, "Get paper and pen, I will go back and deal with you!"

Two jailers hurriedly brought paper and pen, and Wang Deshou cursed and wrote orders on the small table next to him.

At this time, Li Zhen looked at Zhou Yunyuan more and more familiar. He saw that Zhou Yunyuan's hands were slender and powerful, and the sword-holding posture contained great power.

Li Zhen felt suspicious. Zhou Yunyuan should be a scholar, so how could he hide his martial arts? Moreover, he didn't know the so-called Censor General at all. Everything was said by Wang Deshou, could it be...

Li Zhen took two steps back vigilantly, held the hilt of the sword, staring at Zhou Yunyuan with a cold look, "Zhou Zhongcheng, I think we should know each other!"

At this time, Zhou Yunyuan sneered coldly, "Mr. Li, we are old friends, of course we know each other!"
