The huge Qianyang Palace was silent, and all the civil and military officials looked at the fake Fan Xin kneeling on the ground in shock.

No wonder they felt that Fan Xinping was different from usual, and turned out to be an imposter.

If the Queen Mother hadn't noticed anything unusual, they would still have been kept in the dark.

Fake Fan Xin was confused when he found that the ministers looked at him with unkind eyes.

"Mr. Di Ge, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like this?"

He studied a lot of official rules before pretending to be Fan Xin, and his words and reactions were no different from those of other officials.

The Queen Mother and the civil and military officials should not be able to find out, but judging from everyone's reaction, it seems that she has been exposed.

Seeing that fake Fan Xin was about to die, Di Renjie pretended to be calm and said coldly with his hands behind his back.

"Since you don't shed tears when you see the coffin, I will tell you why you were exposed."

"The real Fan Xin will never kneel down to anyone, let alone a few noble disciples!"

"You may be fine as an ordinary official with all your behaviors, but pretending to be him is a fatal flaw!"

"That's right, although we don't like Fan Xin, his bloodiness and integrity are far beyond ordinary people. Are you not seeking death by pretending to be him?" the ministers followed.

"So that's it..." Fake Fan Xin lowered his head with bitterness in his mouth after learning the reason for the exposure.

He thought that he wasn't doing well enough and that he was pretending to be a guy who didn't act according to official rules after making trouble for a long time.

There is no injustice in being exposed.

Seeing that he had nothing to say, Di Renjie flicked his sleeves and shouted in command.

"Come on, put the impostor in jail and interrogate him strictly. We must find out the whereabouts of Fan Xin as soon as possible!"

"Yes!" The two inner guards clasped their fists and stepped forward to hold down the fake Fan Xin's arms and escort him out of the hall.

After dealing with the murderer, Di Renjie glanced at the ministers present and said.

"Everyone, you must have seen the Queen Mother's attitude. If Fan Xin cannot be found within seven days, I don't know how many people will be buried with him."

"I hope you will use the conditions in your hands to find out the whereabouts of Fan Xin at all costs!"

Zhang Jianzhi stood up and said.

"Mr. Di Ge, trying to find a person in a vast sea of ​​people is like looking for a needle in a haystack. What do you think?"

"Is this..." Di Renjie stroked his beard and thought, "First let Fengge and Luantai issue a national directive, ordering all prefectures and counties to conduct a comprehensive inventory of young people who are similar to Fan Xin."

"As soon as you find any trace, report it to the center immediately. Remember not to mention your name or reason, to prevent it from being used by gangsters."

"In addition, I remember that Fan Xin is from Youzhou. A team from the Internal Guard, Dali Temple, Criminal Department, Yushitai, and the Northern and Southern Yamen each formed a team to sneak into Youzhou quietly to investigate his whereabouts!"

"No one is allowed to disclose the news of Fan Xin's disappearance to the local government without my permission. Do you understand?"

"My subordinates understand!" The ministers bowed and bowed and exited the hall in groups.

Looking at the backs of everyone, Di Renjie came to the inner prison with an expressionless face.

"How about Mr. Dou Ge, has the murderer confessed?"

"Back to Mr. Di Ge, this man's name is Wang Huai, the nephew of Queen Wang, codenamed Viper. According to him, Fan Xin fell off a cliff in the Baiyun Mountain area and died." Dou Ying said, holding his fists.

"Oh, Baiyun Mountain?" Di Renjie's eyes lit up and his expression became urgent.

Dou Ying nodded: "Yes, after receiving the news, I quickly sent internal security guards to investigate. As a result, traces of an overturned car were indeed found at the scene."

Before Di Renjie could smile, he changed his tone: "But we didn't find anything related to Fan Xin under the cliff."

"It was probably taken away by a passing caravan or a murderer."

"If no body is found, it means that the person is still alive. As long as you follow the official road of Baiyun Mountain, you will definitely find clues!"

Di Renjie pondered for a moment and raised his head and said: "In this case, you immediately send people to investigate along the official road, and I will tell the Queen Mother the good news first."

"Fan Xin's disappearance has been a huge blow to her. At this time of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, Datang cannot afford any more mistakes."

After leaving the prison, Di Renjie got on the carriage and went straight to Guanfeng Hall.

As soon as they entered the door, they noticed that something was wrong. Several imperial doctors carrying medicine boxes were kneeling on the ground and shivering.

Seeing him coming, Shangguan Wan'er stepped forward and gave him a blessing.

"Mr. Di Ge, you are here."

Di Renjie glanced at the palace and whispered: "What's wrong with the Queen Mother?"

Shangguan Wan'er sighed and said with a sad face: "It's been like this since I came back from Qianyang Palace. I didn't eat, drink or talk."

"Weichen tried to find some imperial doctors to take a look, but she kicked him out."

"The Queen Mother is suffering from a heart problem. Please let the doctor go back first and leave the rest to me."

After comforting Shangguan Wan'er with a few words, Di Renjie walked to the curtain with a smile and cupped his hands.

"Veteran Di Renjie has met with the Queen Mother and there is news about Fan Shaoqing!"

As soon as he said this, there was a sudden noise in the originally unusually quiet palace.

Then the curtain was lifted and Wu Zetian walked barefoot to the main hall and said excitedly.

"Huaiying, what did you say?"

"Back to the Queen Mother, I said that I found traces of Fan Xin."

"Where is it, tell me quickly!" Wu Zetian said excitedly.

Di Renjie didn't show off, and said solemnly.

"In Baiyun Mountain!"

"Baiyun Mountain?"

"Yes, the internal guards found traces of Fan Xin falling off the cliff in Baiyun Mountain."

Seeing Wu Zetian's face turn pale, Di Renjie said quickly: "But no body was found. Judging from the traces at the scene, he should have been taken away."

"Weichen has ordered all prefectures and counties to conduct strict population checks to find Fan Xin's whereabouts."

"I believe it won't take long to know Fan Xin's specific location."

When she heard that Fan Xin was still alive, Wu Zetian breathed a sigh of relief and praised him.

"You did a good job. This matter must be carried out secretly. The murderer must not be allowed to know that he is still alive."

"I obey the order!" Di Renjie straightened up and said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, your heart disease has been half cured. Can you eat now?"

"Old guy." Wu Zetian glared at him angrily and took a few sips of the porridge.

Finally, we walked to the entrance of Guanfeng Hall and looked at Luoyang City in the distance.

Youyou said.

"Fan Xin, I must find you back..."

……

Lin Haixue said, on the bullock cart.

Fan Xin slowly opened his eyes and looked at Xue Lin on both sides of the road with a confused look on his face.

He remembered that after the carriage rolled over, he fell into the cliff. Why did he open his eyes and find himself in the vast snowfield?

"Scholar, you're awake!" A little girl with delicate features looked at him curiously.

"Who are you?" The little girl in front of her was wearing a fur round hat and a tiger skin apron, dressed in a typical northern Orion style.

"My name is Cheng Xiaonan, and everyone in the village calls me Nannan. What's your name?" the little girl asked, blinking her big eyes.

"My name is Fan Renyan. My name is an oxymoron. I am a scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam. I got lost and accidentally fell under a cliff in the dark. Did you save me?"

Although the little girl in front of him looked innocent, he had no intention of revealing his true identity until he understood the situation.

"Grandpa Tie saved me, otherwise you would have froze to death under the cliff." The little girl proudly shouted forward.

"Grandpa Tie, come here quickly, the white-faced scholar is awake!"
