Facing Wu Zetian's inquiry, Di Renjie did not take it lightly. Wu Zetian attaches great importance to the "people's hearts" and even set up a box outside the palace for the people to speak on their own.

Although such measures are often formal, you can see some of the emperor's thoughts from the perspective of the leopard.

The emperor wants to know the people's hearts, but he just wants to know whether his rule is consolidated.

So Di Renjie smiled and said, "The people live and work in peace, and the world is back to their hearts. However, there are some rumors, but they still need to be cautious."

Wu Zetian raised her eyebrows: "What kind of rumors?"

Di Renjie smiled again and said, "It's mostly trivial things in Luoyang, but I didn't dare to discuss the palace. It's just a matter of which ministers fight for wealth. Such things are the topic of conversation for the people, and those who talk about this matter can be said to be relished; but if you encounter a bad year, it may become a bad thing."

Wu Zetian couldn't help but say, "How do you say this?"

Di Renjie cheered up and said, "It is the same thing. If it is in an ordinary year, the people may not have any bad comments on it. Instead, they think that the struggle for beauty and wealth is an interesting and strange thing. The speaker is eloquent and the listener is relished. But if it is not in the peaceful season, the people who say the same thing will inevitably be angry, and the listener is full of anger. In fact, it is not that the things are different. However, although the people may not have received any education, their joys, anger, sorrow, and happiness will change according to their own food, clothing, housing and transportation. If all the people live and work in peace, then even if the rich are extremely luxurious, the people can still return to their hearts. But if there is a disaster year, if there is a locust plague two years ago, when the Jiangnan West Road encountered a locust plague, the people will have no food and clothing, and they will inevitably develop anger, so anything in Luoyang City can become an excuse for resentment."

Speaking of this, Di Renjie paused for a moment and said, "Therefore, my foolish opinion is that the country is solid and the rich people. Your Majesty... This is a huge matter."

After hearing this, Wu Zetian fell into silence.

She suddenly felt that there seemed to be another meaning in Di Renjie's words.

Could it be that if I want to stabilize the world, I will definitely not rely on suppressing the Li family. Is it by killing a few Li Jingye or Li Chong? Are you implicitly mocking me for indulging Lai Junchen and others?

But... his words didn't seem to be unreasonable.

But Wu Zetian still smiled and said lightly: "Your family's words are thought-provoking. This time I have made you come to the court for this matter. Since I ascended the throne, rebellions have continued frequently. Although the world has gradually become peaceful, the court is still in a mess. Your governance of the local area has been effective. Therefore, I want to use you to become the wealth of the people you say. But now there is a case. I don't know if you have heard of it. Although this case is not big, the impact is extremely bad. You can immediately distinguish right from wrong. After solving this matter, you should go to the three sections again."

Before entering Luoyang, Di Renjie knew about this.

He knew very well what happened. As Wu Zetian said, this matter was not big. But the impact was extremely bad. If someone else investigated it, it would definitely cause a lot of controversy. However, if Di Renjie did it, Di Renjie was known for being fair. This matter was too small, just a fight. With his fairness, it would never expand the situation. At most, it would be just a matter of Qin Shaoyou or Zhang Yizhi who was not aware of the generalities and was just a disgrace to official etiquette. If someone else came to do it, everyone would definitely say shelter, but if Di Renjie did it, no one could pick out a sting. Even if everyone thought Di Gong was punished too lightly, no one dared to question it.

This is Wu Zetian's intention. It seems that he wants to treat this matter as a major matter, and he will never be favored or shelter anyone because of Qin Shaoyou or Zhang Yizhi's relationship with the palace. In fact, he just treats Di Renjie as a shield.

Di Renjie nodded and said, "After I left the palace, I immediately rushed to Luoyang County. This is a small case, and there will be a result in just three to five days."

Wu Zetian smiled and said, "With Duke Di, it's easy to talk about this, but there's no need to rush to ask. Di Qing came from afar, so it's time to take a break."

Di Renjie hurriedly said, "If you have time, the saint is concerned about it. I am a person who cannot stay idle, but it is not a problem."

Since he said this, Wu Zetian did not refute it anymore, and smiled and said, "Wan'er, I'll give it to Di Qing."

Shangguan Wan'er nodded with her head.

Di Renjie also stood up and left with tactfully, and followed Shangguan Wan'er out of Xuanzheng Hall.

Di Renjie was energetic, and after leaving the palace, he headed straight to Luoyang County.

The Liu County Magistrate of Luoyang County had long been looking forward to his arrival. On the one hand, he wanted to see the famous Di Renjie, and on the other hand, the county had two old men. He was really worried. When he learned that Di Renjie had arrived, he did not bring any escorts and was wearing a regular suit that came to the capital, he was stunned for a moment and hurried out to greet him, saying, "The emperor has seen Di Gong. Di Gong has come from afar and has not been able to meet him. It is a crime to die."

Di Renjie said with a little smile: "Ha... Yuanfang, there is no need to be too polite."

County Magistrate Liu was stunned. Yuan Fang was his name, and he and Di Renjie had only heard of his name before, but did not see him. Why did this Di Gong recognize him?

Seeing that the Liu County Magistrate was stunned, Di Renjie smiled and said, "You must be puzzled. I recognize you. You are a Jinshi in the Mingjing Certificate in the first year of Xianqing. Before the imperial examination, you submitted a paper to various prefectures and happened to have one of them. I have read your articles and have always paid great attention to you."

call……

The magistrate Liu County immediately understood.

In fact, the family background of Liu County Magistrate was not very good, so he was not very sure when he was in the imperial examination. He studied everywhere and then took the imperial examination. Then he passed the imperial examination in a confused manner, and then he was a Jinshi, which made him today.

At that time, he was still muttering, why did he get hit?

Now it seems that I am afraid that the one who secretly puts out his efforts is probably Di Renjie.

Unfortunately, before the exam, generally speaking, if a high school or a high-ranking official likes a candidate, they will invite them to the mansion to speak in advance and make friends. Then everyone will have a clear idea. The candidates know that they will be taken care of soon and will feel grateful. These people who support their younger generations will be favored and satisfied.

Di Renjie did not leave this process. Until now, County Magistrate Liu knew who his benefactor was.

He hurriedly stepped forward a few steps, and instead of bowing, he fell to the ground and said, "It turns out that Di Gong is actually the Mansion of En, please accept a prayer from the students."

Di Renjie hurriedly helped him up and said, "No need to be polite, talk about business first."

County Magistrate Liu quickly welcomed him into the central hall and stayed in the last seat. Di Renjie sat down and immediately said, "I know a little bit about the cause and effect of this matter. Yuan Fang, what do you think?"

The magistrate Liu knew in his heart that at this time, his relationship with Di Renjie was no longer as simple as Shangguan and Xiaguan. He no longer had to be polite and test. He just needed to honestly express his thoughts. He said without hesitation: "The key to the problem is no longer the right or wrong of these two people, nor is it a question of criminal law. In fact, to put it bluntly, the palace invited Enfu to investigate this case, and the only thing that borrowed was the reputation of Enfu, not because of this strange case. Therefore... the student's advice was nothing more than

After all, I went through the procedures that should be taken, and asked the cases that should be asked. After asking, I could deal with them impartially." He smiled and seemed very relaxed. Now he is no longer the Liu Jun of the past, and his confidence is much better than before. After all, there is a deputy prime minister who is his own Enfu, so he no longer has anxiety. Instead, he seems to be light: "In fact, the facts of this case are very clear, and it is not more difficult than the cases tried in the county. Yesterday, two families in Luoyang County competed for land, which was more troublesome than this case."

Di Renjie nodded and said, "What Yuan Fang said is so much, and I also think this."

County Magistrate Liu was shocked and then said, "But the most difficult thing at the moment is not the case itself, but the two people are extraordinary, especially Zhang Yizhi..." Speaking of this, County Magistrate Liu looked at Di Renjie with a little caution before continuing: "Zhang Yizhi is even more lucky to Your Majesty. It is said that Your Majesty has always been unwilling to leave him. For such a person, Enfu will definitely be unwilling to be sentenced to Qin Shaoyou. Therefore, in the opinion of the student, Enfu will have to cut the mess in this case quickly. It is not certain that at this time, Zhang Yizhi's brothers are already planning outside and expanding the situation. If Enfu is one step slower, it will only make the matter more complicated. If this huge trouble is involved, it will not be able to escape. If they have a look as soon as possible, they will fight to death, it is their own business, and it has nothing to do with Enfu."

"So, the student means that you will review it now. After reviewing it, you will write to the book in the past two days to avoid the night of long dreams."

Di Renjie looked at the Liu County Magistrate with appreciation, nodded and said, "Yuan Fang, I am not wrong with you. Your words are very insightful. Zhang Yizhi... Zhang Changzong... Zhang Yizhi who is detained here is not a problem, but Zhang Changzong. As you said, Qin Shaoyou and Zhang Yizhi have nothing to do with me, so I will try it as soon as possible. You can call these two people now. I want to ask for a few questions."

County Magistrate Liu quickly responded: "Students will do it now."
