Chapter 123 The Case of the Missing Silversmith

"Eunuch is eunuch, what is half eunuch?" Fenghuang couldn't help frowning and asked.

Zhou You looked at He Lu with a playful smile: "Normally speaking, he should have two eggs. Half castration means cutting one egg first. If he doesn't say anything, then cut his other egg." an egg.."

When Fenghuang heard this, he couldn't help but blushed and stared around in anger.This guy is really shady, really bad.

And what Zhou You said next made Fenghuang's face turn pale gradually: "If he doesn't say anything after having two eggs cut, then cut off his nose, ears, and goug out his eyes." , I think it is impossible for the warlike nobles of Tul to support a thing that has no eggs, no nose, ears and eyes as a leader?"

"If you don't recruit again, I will cut off his arms and legs, and soak him in a jar..." Zhou You continued to speak casually, and the faces of the guards and jailers who were in charge of interrogating around him were all pale. White.

"Don't say it, don't say it, I'll recruit... I'll recruit, I'll recruit anything!" He Lu finally said in a hoarse and trembling voice as if he had collapsed.

When Fenghuang heard this, his eyes brightened and he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Tell me, who are you here to see, and who is the traitor in the court?"

"I...we are here to see Di Renjie," He Lu said, Fenghuang's expression froze immediately, and the smile on Zhou You's face faded.

Immediately afterwards, Fenghuang became a little startled and angry: "He Lu, at this time, you still dare to tease us. Do you really think we won't do anything to you?"

"What I said is true, there is nothing you can do if you don't believe me," He Lu gritted his teeth.

Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Fenghuang couldn't help but subconsciously looked at Zhou You, but Zhou You was too lazy to talk to him anymore, so he turned around and said, "Have someone cut off two of his eggs for me." .”

"His current injuries are too serious. If we really castrated him now, let alone cut two... even if cut one, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on and will die," Fenghuang chased after him and said in a low voice.

Turning his head to look at Fenghuang's Zhou You, he walked out noncommittally: "Then you should think about how to explain to His Majesty!"

"You..." Fenghuang, who was stunned when he heard the words, stomped his feet in embarrassment, then turned around and looked at He Lu coldly. Seeing that He Lu felt uneasy, he suddenly said in a deep voice: "Come here..."

As the saying goes, the heart of a woman is the most poisonous. If this woman becomes ruthless, then she really has nothing to do with a man.

Just when Fenghuang was about to let He Lu be eunuched, he called one of the chief internal supervisors in the palace who was best at this matter, ready to use the knife, and when He Lu almost collapsed and couldn't hold on, Di Renjie came suddenly, stopped the matter, and saved He Lu's egg.

In the Tang and Tang dynasties, if the Khans of the five tribes of Tule Tulu were castrated, it would be really disrespectful, and it might even arouse the hatred of the same enemy among the Tule people.

Therefore, after stopping Phoenix, Di Renjie rushed into the palace and proposed to Wu Zetian that He Lu should be handed over to Ji Li Khan.In this way, it not only shows the arrogance of the heavenly dynasty, but regardless of whether Jili Khan kills Helu or not, it will arouse the dissatisfaction of the militant nobles in Tule, and may even lead to internal strife in Tule.

Di Renjie's proposal is a conspiracy!If everything goes well, the border troubles may even be resolved without a single soldier. Naturally, Wu Zetian readily agrees.

At the same time, because Wu Zetian decided to send people to celebrate the birthday of Auspicious Khan, and chose a daughter of the clan to marry Auspicious Khan, in order to resolve the border disputes and consolidate the friendly relationship with Tule. When looking for reasons to evade, Wu Youde, king of Nanping County, suddenly came to ask for an interview, wanting to offer his daughter to help the country.

In this regard, Wu Zetian naturally had no reason to disagree, and probably guessed the reason why Wu Youde did this.Because Di Renjie found out about Wu Youde and his aunt's cousin Zhao Yongrong, director of the Hexi Ordnance Bureau, reselling ordnance, Wu Youde obviously got the news and wanted to sacrifice his daughter to protect himself.

However, Di Renjie has some doubts, because Wu Zetian had issued an edict more than ten days ago to choose the daughter of the clan to be married. If Wu Youde wanted to protect himself, he should have come to offer his daughter earlier. Why delay the time? ?Coincidentally, not long after He Lu was caught, he came to present his daughter.It seems that the two things have nothing to do with each other, but such a coincidence still made Di Renjie somewhat suspicious.

Immediately afterwards, Di Renjie came across the disappearance of silversmiths. A total of 23 silversmiths were hired to go out to work. After going there, there was no news for two months.

By inquiring about the employer, Di Renjie and the others quickly determined that the 23 silversmiths were hired by the same person, a short man with a height of less than five feet and a disabled hand.

If the silversmith is still in the city, then if he can't find it in some gold and silverware workshops, it is most likely that he was invited to a wealthy family.A job that requires so many silversmiths is definitely not a small job.The production of gold and silverware requires a large amount of gold, silver and charcoal.

Zeng Tai quickly found out that the residence of Shar Khan, the chief craftsman, had purchased a large amount of charcoal by checking whether there was a large family that had recently purchased a large amount of gold, silver and charcoal.

Therefore, Di Renjie deliberately took Li Yuanfang to Shar Khan's house.Li Yuanfang went to the backyard of the mansion by going to the latrine to investigate. Sure enough, he found a large amount of charcoal and some red soil stored in a room in the backyard.

It's just that those silversmiths were not found, nor was it found that Shar Khan's house had purchased a large amount of gold and silver, so there was no strong evidence to prove that the silversmith's disappearance was related to Shar Khan.

Immediately afterwards, Zeng Tai found out that [-] or [-] people left the city late at night two months ago, and quickly determined from the clues left that those silversmiths had left the city.

Naturally, Di Renjie and the others focused their investigation on the outside of the city.However, the night before they were going to go out of the city to investigate, Zhou You suddenly came to Di's mansion and asked Di Renjie about the investigation of the disappearance of the silversmith today.

"My lord, are you saying that there are tens of thousands of catties of charcoal in Shar Khan's mansion? The charcoal that has been bought long ago but has not been used?" I asked this question on purpose. After Di Renjie confirmed it, Zhou Youdun pretended to think of it suddenly. He didn't care about talking to Di Renjie about something, so he left Di's mansion in a hurry.

On the other side, in the Shanjin Bureau guarded by the forbidden army, a large amount of gold and silver arrived. After the forbidden army who was responsible for escorting the gold and silver left, a massacre started in the Shanjin Bureau.

Almost at the same time as the fighting started in the Shanjin Bureau, the imperial guards outside heard the movement.And after they realized that something was wrong and rushed in, some people rushed in, followed by a large number of crossbowmen.

Most of these people are dressed in the costumes of Qianniuwei, but they are actually troops from the Neiwei Mansion, dispatched by Zhou You, who have long been lurking outside the Shanjin Bureau.

In the Shanjin Bureau, dozens of mysterious cavalry wind riders headed by Wu Lezhi are massacring the people in the bureau. Even if the imperial army enters, they are not their opponents, and they are slaughtered like bones.

However, when a group of inside guards came in and shot, together with those crossbowmen who jumped over the wall, Wulezhi immediately realized that the situation was not good: "No, it was tricked!"
