The Heavens Begin with Detective Di Renjie

Chapter 290 Evil Emperor Relic
After receiving Li Shimin's guarantee, Shen Youzhi finally explained:

"In the treasury, there is a 'relic' left to Yutian by the 'evil emperor' of the demon sect back then."

"This thing involves a lot, and it is related to the unification of the entire Demon Sect. It is the treasure of evil ways that both schools and six paths dream of."

"If this thing does not fall into the hands of the people of the Demon Sect, there will be a bloody storm, and the consequences are incalculable."

"Therefore, Mr. Shen must keep it in person, and never hand it over to others."

After hearing this explanation, Li Shimin finally understood what Shen Youzhi was thinking, and was even more impressed by his righteous heart.

"I see!"

Li Shimin made another promise, solemnly saying:

"I will definitely report this matter to my father and ask him to send heavy troops to ensure that no one can snatch the relic halfway, let alone let the relic fall into the hands of evil demons!"

"That's very good." Shen Youzhi nodded slightly.

Afterwards, he informed Li Shimin of the entrance to Duke Yang's treasure house in Xiji Garden and the mechanism that opened the treasure house entrance under the Yuema Bridge.

Knowing that Yang Gong’s treasure house is underground in Chang’an, while Li Shimin was surprised, he finally understood why everyone said that those who got Yang Gong’s treasure house would win the world——

Because when Yang Su buried the treasure, it was Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, who was in power, and the capital at that time was Chang'an.

If someone opened the treasure at that time, a fully armed army could be created out of thin air in Chang'an City, and then go straight to the Taiji Palace in the imperial city, kill the emperor in the palace, and overthrow the Sui Dynasty!
Regarding the current situation, although Yang Gong's treasure house can't play such a role in changing the world, it is enough for the Li family to break the current deadlock and soar into the sky from now on!
"Mr. Shen, stay in my mansion first. After I report this matter to my father, I will go to the treasury with Mr. Shen after everything is ready to obtain the relic of the evil emperor!" Li Shimin suppressed the excitement in his heart and said in a deep voice.

"Okay." Shen Youzhi nodded slightly.

Afterwards, Li Shimin summoned the servants of the mansion and ordered them to take Shen Youzhi to the palaces where the Keqing lived in Tiance Mansion, and choose a small courtyard as a place to cultivate.

As for himself, he had to rush to the Taiji Palace in the imperial city immediately, report the good news that fell from the sky to Li Yuan, and make sufficient preparations for opening the Yang Gong's treasure house.

This matter is of great importance. Not only must the timing of the operation be carefully planned, but also the security force must be sufficient during the operation, so as to prevent someone from taking the opportunity to fish in troubled waters after the news is leaked.

Li Shimin knew very well that it was absolutely impossible for such an earth-shattering event to be hidden from the eyes of the major forces in Chang'an City.

It is even very possible that the news came out of Chang'an from unknown channels before he even walked out of the palace.

Since there is no way to prevent the leak of news, we can only strengthen security to ensure that no one dares to come to Chang'an to take chestnuts from the fire.

In addition, you must inform the Dugu Clan in advance.

Because Xiji Garden is the residence of the Dugu Clan, and it is also a place for the old lady You to maintain her health and live in peace. If you want to go to dig treasures, you must first say hello.

Although the Dugu Clan is one of the four big clans, they have a close relationship with the Yang family. Now that the Sui Dynasty has collapsed, they naturally suffered heavy losses.

At present, the Dugu Clan is divided into two factions. One is headed by the lord Dugu Feng, who is competing with Wang Shichong for the dominance of Luoyang. The other is headed by the old lady You Chuhong, who chooses to invest in the related Li Clan to keep the basic market.

This kind of hedging method is not uncommon for family members. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge's family had people who served in the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu.

As the old saying goes, the emperor of flowing water, the family of iron.

No matter who ascends to the throne in the end, it is necessary to rely on the deep-rooted power of the family to take charge of the country.

Only at the end of the Tang Dynasty, after experiencing the chaos of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the basic situation of the aristocratic family will be completely shattered, and finally fade out of the political arena.

In the current period, the status of the aristocratic family is still difficult to shake.

Under the leadership of the servant, Shen Youzhi walked through the pavilion and through the corridor, and finally arrived at the halls where the Keqing of Tiance Mansion lived.

There are many high-rise buildings and houses here and there, it is bigger than a city outside. The civil servants and generals in Tiance Mansion are basically settled in this area.

The entire palace complex is divided into two halves, the east and the west. Most of the people living on the east side are civil servants, while the west side is mostly occupied by military generals.

The residence Li Shimin chose for Shen Youzhi was a single two-story building on the west side.

Although no one lived here before, the furniture in the building has already been prepared, and the tables, chairs, and benches are all clean and tidy, obviously cleaned by maids on a regular basis.

"Mr. Shen, please stay here first." The servant said respectfully, "After a while, there will be a special servant girl to take care of your daily life."

"If you need anything, you can send them to do it at any time."

"En." Shen Youzhi nodded.

Seeing that his task had been completed, the servant slowly exited the small building.

imperial city, tai chi palace
Taiji Palace is located in the center of the imperial city, adjacent to Yeting Palace on the west side, and is the exclusive residence of the emperor.

According to the rules of etiquette, this palace should belong to the "king" Yang You, but the one who really lives in it is Li Yuan, the leader of the Li Clan.

Although Yang You is a puppet, he is still the emperor in name after all.

Throughout the ages, those who "coerced the emperor to order the princes" would put on an appearance no matter what, at least they had to do a good job on the surface. It is really rare to see someone who is as unabashed as Li Yuan.

When Li Shimin persuaded Li Yuan to fight against the Sui Dynasty, he hesitated and could not make up his mind.

Now the situation is not stable, and the pattern of hegemony is still in chaos, but he is eager to become emperor.

"Treasure your life when encountering great events, and forget your life when seeing small gains." Li Yuan's character is really unflattering.

If it weren't for his several sons to be successful, the Li clan would never have reached the height it is today.

Tread-tap-

Excited Li Shimin walked quickly into the Liangyi Hall of Taiji Palace.

Sitting in the middle of the main hall was a middle-aged man in bluish-colored casual clothes. His skin was as white as snow and his face was delicate. He seemed to be only about 30 years old.

This person is the current leader of the Li Clan, Li Yuan.

"Wang'er came here in a hurry, what's the matter?"

Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin who came in a hurry, and asked in a deep voice.

"Father, my child has a very important matter to report to you!"

Li Shimin did not hide the joy and excitement in his heart, and told all about Yang Gong's treasure house.

"Is this true?!"

Hearing that Duke Yang's treasure house is underground in Chang'an, Li Yuan couldn't hide his surprise.

"It's absolutely true!" After Li Shimin finished speaking, he suggested: "Father, this matter is of great importance, and we must proceed immediately."

"Otherwise, once the news leaks out, someone else will be the first to catch it!"

"En." Li Yuan pondered for a moment, and then ordered: "Since that's the case, Wang Er, I will leave it to you to take full responsibility for this matter."

"We must ensure the safety of the treasure house, and we must not allow anyone to take advantage of it!"

"Baby takes orders!" Li Shimin took over this important task very solemnly.
