Synopsis

[Ancient crime-solving + mystery + history + Tang Dynasty + everyday life and relationships] 1. Background During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, the young and talented Di Renjie travels to the capital to take the imperial examinations. He enters official service as the magistrate of Changle County, improves local governance, and solves mysterious cases. 2. Cases Planned cases include Bloodshed on Mount Hua, The Missing Persons Mystery, The Mysterious Berries, Souls Lost in Jinbei, Exotic Treasures, The Case of True Intentions, and The Legend of Mount Nan, along with twenty or thirty smaller cases. There will be at least thirty cases in total. 3. Characters 1) Main and supporting characters Di Renjie: The male lead, an intelligent ordinary man who is good at solving cases and knows a little medicine. Madam Di: The third female lead, gentle, virtuous, understanding, and emotionally perceptive. Zheng Wu: The second male lead, one of Di Renjie’s four personal aides. Of middling strength, exceptionally clever, and somewhat more emotionally perceptive than most. The second female lead: One of Di Renjie’s four personal aides. Highly skilled in combat, intelligent, and emotionally perceptive. Another second male lead: One of Di Renjie’s four personal aides. Highly skilled in combat, but reserved and shy. Di Pu: The steward and one of Di Renjie’s four personal aides. Experienced in worldly affairs and meticulous in his work. 2) Character principles No golden finger: Even the most capable people have their moments of confusion. Di Renjie is an ordinary man, too. A strong general has no weak soldiers: Di Renjie’s four personal aides are never weak. 4. Content Not a historical novel: The economy and purchasing power are close to those of the early Tang Dynasty, though there are some differences. Some characters’ ages should not be judged by historical records. Not a wuxia novel: Although the characters have different levels of combat ability, they are all ordinary people compared to wuxia heroes.

During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, the young Di Renjie entered the official career by virtue of the imperial examination. During his tenure as the magistrate of Changle County, he organized the county administration and cared about people's livelihood, which gradually increased the population of Changle County. During his two or three years in office, Di Renjie and his four major cadres solved difficult cases one after another. Through the experience of these cases, they matured step by step. I have written nearly a million words. Give yourself a thumbs up and support yourself.

It's different from other versions. The protagonist of this book, Master Di, is a very real person with flesh and blood and emotions. Although the story is simple, it has a strong sense of reality. Worth reading for everyone!
