The joy that Zhao Liang's promotion brought to Di Mansion soon dissipated, and life in Di Mansion returned to peace. In the middle of the night, everyone in the Di Mansion was asleep, and suddenly there was a rapid knock on the door. Bang bang bang, bang bang bang. "Open the door, open the door quickly." Zhao Liang was meditating and practicing in the house. He had long heard movement outside and a knock on the door. He put on his clothes and opened the door to go out. Song Qingxue was also awakened. Seeing that Zhao Liang had already stood up, she sat up and asked, "Ms. sir, what are you doing up?" "Madam, there is a knock on the door outside. I will go and have a look." Zhao Liang put on his clothes and walked out of the house and walked towards the door of the mansion. Go, the gatekeeper has already opened the door. Gao Lishi walked in in a panic. After seeing Zhao Liang, he hurriedly said, "Master Di, come with us quickly. The emperor summoned you urgently." Zhao Liangqi said, "The emperor summoned you at night. What's the urgent matter?" "No. "Gongfu said, hurry up, hurry up." "Don't worry, wait until I change clothes before leaving. It's definitely too rash to go to see the driver like this." "Don't change, it's too late, hurry up, hurry up." Gao Lishi took Zhao Liang. He walked away without giving him any chance to refute. Zhao Liang didn¡¯t know what happened, which made Li Zhi so anxious in the middle of the night that he sent Gao Lishi to find him. In less than half an hour, Zhao Liang followed Gao Lishi to the outside of Li Zhi's palace. He saw that the door of the palace was densely packed with guards holding open fires, as if they were facing a formidable enemy. A guard captain shouted loudly, "Stop, who are you?" "Get out of the way, the Queen is urgently calling Di Renjie, the young minister of Dali Temple, to enter the palace." Upon hearing this, the guard captain quickly made way for Di Renjie and Di Renjie to enter the palace. When Gao Lishi went in, Zhao Liang murmured in his conscience that he didn't know what was going on, but one thing was certain, something big must have happened in the palace. Gao Lishi loudly announced outside the hall, "The Queen, Di Renjie has brought her." "Ask him to come in quickly." Zhao Liang entered the hall and saw Wu Zetian sitting above the hall. He cupped his hands and said, "See you, Di Renjie, a humble minister. "The Queen." "Di Renjie, do you know why I summoned you late at night?" "I am stupid, please let the Queen know." "The Emperor was assassinated tonight." Zhao Liang asked, "Has the Emperor been seriously injured?" He was injured, but he was too frightened and was resting. "Zhao Liang asked again, "Have you ever caught the assassin?" "The assassin was very skilled in martial arts and he left calmly." "Have you ever known the assassin's identity, or did anyone see him? "No one has seen the assassin's true face." "I don't know who is so bold as to enter the palace to assassinate the emperor." "This is the question I want to ask. There is someone at the emperor's feet in the eastern capital. Being so treasonous and unethical, entering the palace to assassinate the emperor, wouldn't everyone be in danger? Di Renjie, I want you to solve the case quickly. You must catch the real culprit within five days, otherwise, your young minister from Dali Temple will be killed. "Don't be a bad person." Zhao Liang thought, if you don't want to be a good person, then don't be a good person. I don't want to be a good person yet. It happens that I don't have an official position and I can still concentrate on practicing. Unexpectedly, Wu Zetian saw Zhao Liang bowing his head and thinking silently, as if he had read through his mind, she sneered and said, "Di Renjie, I know you don't value fame and wealth, and the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple is not important to you, but You have to know that the people who lead the land are not the king's soil, and the people who lead the land are not the king's ministers. You can run away, but your family can't run away. Don't think about anything else. It's best to concentrate on solving the case. " Zhao Liang listened to Wu Zetian. I was a little shocked when I said that. I didn't expect Wu Zetian to be able to see into people's hearts and see through his own thoughts at a glance. However, as Wu Zetian said, Zhao Liang can easily fly away, but his family cannot run away. "Empress, I should do my best to find the real culprit." "This is best. Go ahead and solve the case quickly." "Empress, I have one more thing to ask for." "Say." "Assassins dare to enter late at night. The assassination in the palace can be carried out freely. Of course, there are people behind the scenes. How can ordinary people or even civil and military ministers have the courage? I boldly ask the queen to give permission so that the case can be handled conveniently. Otherwise, I am afraid it will be very difficult. " "Okay, I will give it to you. With this authority, someone comes and brings up the Kanglong Mace." The guards around Wu Zetian agreed. Four guards struggled to carry out a large wooden box from the back of the palace. When they arrived in front of Wu Zetian, they placed it heavily on the ground and opened the box.Finally, I saw a black weapon inside. Wu Zetian pointed at the weapon and said, "Di Renjie, this powerful dragon mace is given to you. It can knock down kings and treacherous ministers. It can be used for special things. Seeing this mace is like the emperor coming in person. Now you should be satisfied and busy." "Alright. Okay, so be it." When the guard next to him heard this, he couldn't help but sweat for Zhao Liang. No one had ever dared to speak so glibly in front of Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian frowned after hearing what Zhao Liang said, but she did not blame Zhao Liang out loud. Zhao Liang took out the Kanglong mace from the box. The mace looked like a stick. It had no edge, only a blunt tip and four edges that were not sharp. Its thrust was not as lethal as a sword, nor was it as powerful as a sword with an edge. It can be cut so easily, and the main techniques are just strong collision and smashing. The Dragon Mace is extremely heavy and cannot be used freely by those who are not strong enough. Its lethality is very considerable, and it can crush people to death even through armor. The weight of the Dragon Mace in Zhao Liang's hand was about the same as that of a fire stick. Zhao Liang waved it twice in his hand, appearing to be extremely relaxed. The sound of the wind caused by the dancing of the Dragon Mace was whining. Wu Zetian knew that this mace was made of black iron. Even though it was just a small mace, it weighed more than five hundred kilograms. For ordinary people, it was extremely heavy and could not be lifted at all. However, Zhao Liang lifted it like It's like it weighs nothing. "Di Renjie, the Dragon Mace has been given to you. Go handle the case quickly and arrest the assassin who assassinated the emperor." "Yes, I accept the order." Zhao Liang cupped his hands, turned around and walked out of the hall with the Dragon Mace in hand. He held his head high and chest out, and stepped forward. Walking towards the palace gate. Along the way, Zhao Liang was wondering who sent the assassin and what was the purpose of assassinating the emperor. If he guessed correctly, this matter must have something to do with the royal family. Whoever is most beneficial to the emperor's death will have it. The biggest suspicion. But then again, this matter is definitely not that simple. There may be someone in the middle, and maybe they are deliberately framed. Zhao Liang thought about it so much that his head ached a little. Solving crimes was more tiring than practicing. The night wind came. Zhao Liang took a deep breath and felt that his mind was clearer. However, he still didn't have much clue. He wanted to go back to Di Mansion first and discuss it with Zeng Tai and Li Yuanfang. After all, the Three Stooges Better than Zhuge Liang, not to mention that the three of them are not cobblers.
