Di Renjie neither accepted Helian Guchuan's surrender at the moment nor refused. Instead, he said: "The assassination case has not been completely settled. Helian Guchuan is still a criminal offender. "You stay in Dali Temple and don't go anywhere. The rest of the matter will be discussed after the case is processed."

Without rejection, it means that there is still hope. Helian Guchuan agreed happily, and Guo Yuanzhen was also very happy.

Such a small episode made Xue Shao's nervous and gloomy mood slightly relaxed in recent days. Just as he was about to leave, Di Renjie took the initiative to say: "General, I heard that your army has arrested many people in the capital of the East Capital recently. Is there any such incident?"

"This is my order." Xue Shao did not deny it.

"The General is suspicious. Will there be any detailed communications between Dongdu during this extraordinary period?" Di Renjie asked.

Xue Shao nodded, "Why, Duke Di doesn't agree with me to do this?"

"During the national mourning period, we should be vigilant. I do not object." Di Renjie said, "But these Japanese officials learned that some innocent people were also mistakenly captured by the guards under the general as spies. The people had nowhere to report, and the government also interfered in the affairs of the army. Therefore, it was quite miserable."

Xue Shao smiled and said, "This responsibility lies with me, and I don't blame me for my command. It's my order. I would rather catch three thousand mistakes than let a suspicious person go. But please don't worry Di Gong. If you are really a good citizen, we will not make things difficult for him. We will let him go after the investigation is clear. The overall situation is on our shoulders. We have made some mistakes occasionally, so please forgive me."

"I don't have that power to blame the general." Di Renjie also smiled and said, "I just don't know if the general is useful to me, Di?"

Xue Shao's eyes lit up and arrested spies to investigate the suspect. This is the power of Dali Temple and Di Renjie's specialty! Li Duozuo and other rough people only remembered the sentence "It would rather be a mistake to catch three thousand" in my order, so they all stared at each other with cross-eyed eyes and arrested people. Although this is a special solution for special periods, it is not good to have too much harassment and harm the people.

"Since Prince Di takes the initiative to indicate that I am not polite!" Xue Shao smiled, "Why, I'll let Li Duozuo send all the arrested suspects to Dali Temple. Please ask Duke Di to interrogate and identify them on his behalf. How about it?"

"That's great!" Di Renjie was very happy and said, "The General clearly understood that Di was not just seeking a false reputation of "recruiting the people for the people", but Di felt that if among the arrested people, there were Meng Jinshuixiao's accomplices or the accomplices of the planner, then the case might have made great progress."

"Then let's just say that." Xue Shao smiled and nodded, "I will immediately give Li Duozuo an order to hand over all the arrested people to Di Gong for disposal. In addition, the entire Dongdu area is now strongly controlled by the army, and everyone, including the officials of the court, is not allowed to act without authorization. I will give Di Gong a special order to facilitate your free entry and exit in various places, including the camps of my army."

"Mr. Di, thank you General!" Di Renjie bowed to Xue Shao with great gratitude.

"Di Gong doesn't have to be polite. In this country's crisis, we are the ministers of the same palace to work together with sincerity. Moreover, in fact, you are helping me in both public and private affairs." Xue Shao smiled and said, "If you have to do it in the future, Di Gong just speaks. Xue Shao has no choice but to do what he can!"

"Thank you, General!" Di Renjie thanked again.

Xue Shao nodded with a smile. It is indeed comfortable to deal with people like Di Renjie. First of all, he is very smart and will never offend others on his own initiative, and he knows more about thinking about others. What is even more rare is that a Confucian official who is knowledgeable and knowledgeable does not have a particularly strong scholarly aura. On the contrary, he is very simple and generous.

In today's terms, Di Renjie is really not pretending.

"Helian Guchuan, you are Guo Yuanzhen's righteous brother, and Guo Yuanzhen is my brother. Logically speaking, we should be able to get along." Xue Shao said to Helian Guchuan again, "But you are still a criminal offender in the court. I hope you can regain your freedom as soon as possible. Maybe then, we can stop drunk."

"I am looking forward to it." Helian Guchuan smiled slightly, hugged Xue Shao, and said, "According to the view of the matter, General Xue should be a loyal man, otherwise my brother Guo Yuanzhen would not be willing to give your life to you; furthermore, General Xue should also be a rare good official, otherwise Di Gong would not be willing to be with you. But what kind of person is General Xue, it must be after he personally contacts you and gets along with you."

Xue Shao smiled, "It doesn't matter what kind of person I am. What's important is whether we can match each other's temper!"

"Well said," Helian Guchuan laughed, "Just say this to you, I'll make a decision, you friend!"

Xue Shao smiled, "Then you can serve under Di Gong's command and solve your identity problem as soon as possible. At that time, Xue may be able to think of some ways to make you officially become a public official in Dali Temple and follow Di Gong's command legitimately."

"General Xue, I am a thief, and I must not be used to the imperial grain." Helian Guchuan smiled, "But I don't mind following him as a private servant. Of course, this must be done by Di Gong to give me a meal and a porridge every day!"

"Di Gong said that these things will be discussed after the case is over. Whether Di Gong can accept you depends on your own ability." Xue Shao smiled and bowed to everyone, "Everyone, Xue Shao has said goodbye!"

"Wait a minute, wait a moment!"

Guo Yuanzhen hurriedly called Xue Shao in public, came forward with a smile, and whispered: "Young Marshal, why don't you care about my life or death?"

Xue Shao smiled, "Aren't you living a good life?"

"Not good at all!" Guo Yuanzhen looked bitter, "Is that okay to patrol the streets in Luoyang City every day and argue with those vendors and walk red with their hands, how can that be?"

Xue Shao smiled and said, "In this extraordinary time, Jinwu Guard is short of staff. I can't poach people at this time, right? That's so unauthentic!"

"That's right, that's right..." Guo Yuanzhen nodded with a frown.

"I know what you want to do, you can endure it for a while." Xue Shao said, "Now you are carrying the special mission given by the Queen of Heaven. First, you will assist Di Gong in the case with your righteous brother. After the case is over, I will know."

"Okay! I'll feel at ease with the young marshal's words!" Guo Yuanzhen was very happy.

Afterwards, Xue Shao, the patient, still sat in the civil servant sedan that he disliked the most, and shook step by step and let Xue Chuyu and others carry it away.

"This person is good, really, and there is no stinking airs of becoming an official." Helian Guchuan looked at Xue Shao and others' backs away and said to Guo Yuanzhen, "Brother, you finally made a good friend this time."

Guo Yuanzhen said seriously: "I have never made a friend incorrectly!"

"What about me?" Helian Guchuan smiled.

"You are my brother!"

Xue Shao returned to Zhenguan Hall and just sat down, Wu Zetian came to visit the patient.

Just now, the Dali Temple was under investigation, and Wu Zetian also sent someone to listen. He must have known all the details. After she came, she said, "Authentice, those assassins are determined and may not give up. You need to be careful and cautious in the future. You should bring more guards when you go in and out, and your family and relatives need to be protected."

"What the Queen of Heaven said is. I am preparing to make some private requests to the Queen of Heaven, and I also ask the Queen of Heaven to be approved." Xue Shao said.

"What's the matter?"

Xue Shao bowed and said, "As a military commander, I can also have some martial arts skills. As long as I am more vigilant, my safety problem will be easy to solve. However, His Highness, my brother and sister-in-law, and others make me more worried."

Wu Zetian nodded, "Then what method did you think of?"

"Where is my brother and sister-in-law, I can spend some money to hire more folk martial artists to raise writer slaves and help guard the house. If necessary, I can also take them over and live with me." Xue Shao said, "It's just that His Royal Highness's status is special and she often needs to be in and out of the ban. Her safety issues should be treated specially."

"Now she is only guarding Linlang and Yang Sixu, and there is indeed a little less manpower." Wu Zetian said, "Otherwise, I will send another group of imperial guards to accompany me to protect me?"

"The Queen of Heaven, the Imperial Guards are men after all, and His Highness the Princess is mostly female relatives. If I am at home, it would be fine, but if I am not at home, it would be inconvenient." Xue Shao smiled and said, "So I want to find the Queen of Heaven and second some people."

Wu Zetian also smiled, "Your thoughts are pretty. Tell me, who do you want?"

"I want to find the queen and borrow a group of archery and child-born maids who practice martial arts in the palace. I will train them specially, and then let them carry bows and swords in the future to protect His Highness." Xue Shao said, "Linlang was once the best among archery and child-born. Yang Sixu is also very familiar with these people, so it is easy to act."

"This method is feasible." Wu Zetian nodded, "How many people do you want?"

"Don't you have too many, just eighteen people!" Xue Shao smiled, "Didn't the Queen of Heaven give me 20-class swords? I originally wanted to give them to the scouts around me, but now they have a better use! - I asked Linlang and Eighteen-She to wear 20-class swords to be the personal guard of His Royal Highness Taiping! In this way, I often lead troops outside, so that I can feel at ease!"

Wu Zetian smiled very pleasedly and nodded, "It's rare that you care so much about Taiping and think so carefully - accurate!"

"I, thank you, Queen!" Xue Shao bowed, "Will I let Linlang and Yang Sixu go to the Yeting Bureau to pick people?"

"Go!" Wu Zetian smiled and said, "In addition, I heard that you invited Mr. Pei's widow and young son to Luoyang to settle down. This is a good thing. But it is not very peaceful outside now. For their safety, I suggest you take them to the palace to live together. Let them live with you in the Zhenguan Hall for the time being. What do you think?"

"Thank you, thank you, Queen!"

Xue Shao bowed and bowed again. Although he knew that this was Wu Zetian's winning action, he was still full of gratitude.
