What a coincidence, the news of Li Chengqian's death happened to be sent to the palace today.
One second Li Shimin was still thinking about who the real murderer was, but the next person learned the news of Li Chengqian's death.
After hearing the news, Li Shimin couldn't believe it at first, and then his blood surged and he almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
Even though Li Chengqian rebelled, he was Li Shimin's eldest son after all, and there was still a deep relationship between father and son.
If it weren't for Hou Junji's instigation, Li Chengqian would still be a good boy.
However, now even Li Chengqian is dead, which makes Li Shimin furious.
"Hurry up and announce Muchuan's entry into the palace!!"
Muchuan, who was enjoying the banquet, saw Wang De, who was panting and panicked, and knew that something big had happened.
Sure enough, I learned from Wang De that Li Chengqian was actually assassinated.
This was unexpected by Muchuan.
You know, when the prince in the palace was assassinated, it can be attributed to the other party killing the chicken to scare the monkeys and intimidating Li Shimin.
But Li Chengqian was far away in Qianzhou, and he was a deposed prince, so there was no point in killing him.
"Master Mu, Your Majesty has never been so angry. You'd better come with me quickly."
Wang De said: "When I meet Your Majesty later, Master Mu, please restrain yourself. If I provoke Your Majesty today, I am afraid that Master Mu will also lose his life."
Seeing what Wang De said was so unreasonable, Muchuan even wanted to pretend to be sick.
Anyway, Li Shimin knew that he had lost too much blood and was pretending to be sick and comatose in bed. Li Shimin couldn't say anything more, right?
However, Muchuan gave up this idea when he thought of Changsun Wuji who was carried to the palace with his bed on that day.
I'm afraid if I really pretend to be sick, not only will I have to move the bed with me, but I'm afraid the entire Mu Mansion will also have to be moved in!
As a result, Muchuan had no choice but to quickly go with Wang De.
Before leaving, Xiaoying insisted on going with him.
Muchuan naturally refused.
Just kidding, this is not Baekje or Silla. If Xiaoying gets into trouble if she is brought into the palace, she will be in big trouble!
After much persuasion, Muchuan finally gave up the idea of Mu Yingchen following him secretly.
But this reminded Muchuan that he could indeed bring someone into the palace with him.
As a result, Di Renjie, who looked nervous, followed Muchuan into the palace.
The reason why I chose to bring Di Renjie into the palace is because Di Renjie is extremely alert. His ability to become a detective in the future is not just a matter of accumulated experience, but rather a natural talent.
Therefore, Muchuan felt that by bringing Di Renjie into the palace this time, he might be able to dig out some clues and details that he was unaware of.
"Teacher, I will see the emperor later, what should I do?"
When he was almost there, Di Renjie asked nervously.
Muchuan smiled faintly and said, "Don't be so nervous. You just have to learn what I will do later."
As soon as these words came out, Wang De was almost frightened out of his wits.
He quickly touched Di Renjie's bald head and said: "Child, you must not listen to him. Master Mu has the right to exempt you from kneeling. If you don't kneel down, I'm afraid your little head will be in danger!"
Hearing this, Muchuan and Di Renjie were both stunned for a moment.
Muchuan was stunned because he had forgotten this incident just now.
Di Renjie was stunned because he had really taken Muchuan's words seriously just now.
Good guy, if Di Renjie behaves like Muchuan after entering, I'm afraid Li Shimin will explode with anger.
Wang De quickly explained the rules to Di Renjie. Fortunately, Di Renjie was extremely smart and he memorized them all in a short time.
Soon, the three of them entered the palace and met Li Shimin.
At this time, Li Shimin, just as Wang De described, looked like a tiger with its hair blown off. His aura alone was enough to make some weak-minded people faint.
Di Renjie also looked extremely ugly. This was his first time seeing the emperor.
At this meeting, Di Renjie was finally able to understand why the emperor was also called the Son of Heaven.
Just standing in front of Li Shimin, Di Renjie felt as humble as looking up to the sky.
"Chen Muchuan, pay homage to Your Majesty!"
Muchuan bowed, which was enough to give Li Shimin face.
Normally, Muchuan would not even bend his waist.
Di Renjie was still in a state of confusion. Wang De was startled and quickly bumped him with his elbow.
Di Renjie came back to his senses and suddenly found Li Shimin staring at him.
He was already extremely nervous, and now he was even more frightened and trembling all over.
Seeing Di Renjie's miserable performance, Muchuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Still too young.
"Cao Cao Cao Cao people, knock knock knock knock knock to see Your Majesty!"
Di Renjie's teeth were chattering. He could have finished speaking in one breath, but he stuttered for a long time.
Li Shimin was already dissatisfied with Muchuan for bringing in other people, but now that Di Renjie was so useless, he was even more dissatisfied.
He snorted coldly, glanced at Muchuan, and said, "Mu Chuan, give me an explanation."
Although Li Shimin did not say more, Muchuan knew very well that if he did not explain clearly, Di Renjie might be killed and he would also face a series of punishments.
Muchuan quickly replied: "Your Majesty, this son is my disciple."
"Don't forget that he is still young, but his mind is extremely clever and his thinking is extremely active. He has solved strange cases that even the ministers were unable to solve. He is a genius in solving cases."
Muchuan was so eloquent, these few sentences piqued Li Shimin's interest.
Because he needs someone to solve the case now. Although the current candidate is Muchuan, after all, Muchuan is not professional enough.
Maybe Muchuan is a business giant, a literary giant, and a medical giant, but this does not mean that Muchuan is also a superb detective in solving cases.
Therefore, when Li Shimin saw Muchuan bringing a professional talent, he became somewhat interested.
"May I have your name?"
Li Shimin asked Di Renjie.
Di Renjie swallowed his saliva and said quickly: "Di Renjie, a common man, is from Jinyang, Bingzhou. He is only twelve years old."
Di Renjie is not an ordinary person. He has barely adapted to Li Shimin's aura and finally no longer stutters when speaking.
Li Shimin nodded and asked again: "Di Renjie, are you as capable as your master said?"
Hearing this, Di Renjie was about to be humble, but he noticed Muchuan winking at him.
Di Renjie is not stupid, he certainly knows what Muchuan means.
He could only bite the bullet and nod in agreement.
"Master has exaggerated a bit, but ordinary people do have experience in solving cases."
"Very good!"
Li Shimin clapped his hands and finally had a happy look on his face.
"With your master and apprentice here this time, I'm afraid this real villain will have nowhere to escape!"
"I promise here that if your master and disciple can find out the real murderer, no matter what your request is, I will grant it to you!"
