When it comes to the detectives in ancient my country, it is estimated that the first thing that most people think of is Di Renjie . The reason why Di Renjie's image as a detective can be so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people is mainly due to various film and television dramas featuring Di Renjie as the protagonist in recent years.
said that it may not be accurate in recent years. To be precise, it has been in the past 30 years. In fact, as early as the 1980s, 14 episodes of the TV series " Di Renjie's Legend of the Case " appeared on the screen. In the past 30 years, almost every one or two years, there have been film and television works about Di Renjie's detective case. The most famous among them is the TV series "Detective Di Renjie" starring Liang Guanhua , Zhang Zijian and others, and the director Tsui Hark film "Di Renjie" series.
These film and television dramas that portray Di Renjie as a detective image are actually mostly influenced by the novel " The Great Tang Di Gong Case ", this 1.4 million-word novel was not written by a Chinese, but by a Dutchman Gao Luo Written by Pe.
Due to the endless emergence of various novels and film and television works about Di Renjie, Di Renjie's image of a detective has become more and more popular, and his nationality has become more and more popular, so that some movies and TV dramas of ancient costume detective type are often rubbed in order to attract audiences. Let's take a look at the popularity of Di Renjie's big IP, such as the popular costume suspense drama " Tang Dynasty Weird Stories " that was broadcast some time ago.
The protagonist in "The Strange Record of the Tang Dynasty" is named Su Wuming. In the play, his identity is Di Renjie's close disciple, and he has won the true biography of Di Renjie. Identity is on the lips.
Actually, the character Su Wuming was not made up by the screenwriter. In the legendary biography of the Tang Dynasty, Su Wuming is indeed a detective, but it is unknown whether he is Di Renjie's apprentice or not.
In "Chang'an Black Tea", the first unit of "The Strange Record of the Tang Dynasty", when Princess Taiping met Su Wuming for the first time, he said that he was transferred because Su Wuming helped her retrieve the lost jewelry. When she went to Chang'an to be a county captain, in fact, the incident that the princess said was the story recorded in "Taiping Guangji".
According to the records of "Taiping Guangji", during the years of and , Wu Zetian rewarded Princess Taiping with treasures worth 10,000 taels of gold. Princess Taiping put these treasures in two wooden boxes and placed them in the secret room. Unexpectedly, these two boxes of property disappeared. Princess Taiping told Wu Zetian about this. Wu Zetian was furious after hearing it, and let Luozhou Changshi catch the thief who stole the treasure within three days.
Luo Governor Shi returned to the mansion and immediately ordered his two county officials to catch the treasure thief within two days.
Just when the officials of the two counties were at a loss, a yamen met Su Wuming on the street. The article did not introduce Su Wuming's origin in detail, but only said that he was in Huzhou at this time.
During the Tang Dynasty, Fuzhou Biejia was mainly to assist the chief executive in sharing the administrative affairs of the Fuzhou.
After seeing Su Wuming, the yamen invited him to the county and told the county lieutenant that someone who could help them was here. The county lieutenant seemed very happy that it was Su Wuming, and brought Su Wuming to see Changshi.
wrote that since Su Wuming was an official, he has always been famous for catching 's treacherous people. No thief can escape if he passes by him. After seeing Su Wuming,
Changshi excitedly took Su Wuming's hand and said, " met my father today, but gave me the name ."
can see from the attitude of these people towards Su Wuming that although Su Wuming has an official position It's not particularly high, but it has a great reputation for catching thieves.
On the second day, Chang Shi led Su Wuming to meet Wu Zetian. Su Wuming proposed to hand over all the officials under the county magistrate to his command, and to recover the property within ten days. Wu Zetian agreed to his request.
For a few days after that, Wuming Su stayed on his guard until the day of Cold Food Festival , when Wuming Su suddenly summoned a group of fifteen people to wait at the east gate and north gate of Luoyang, and told them that if they saw a team of Hu People wearing ma and filial piety went out of the city to visit the tombs in Beimang, followed them and immediately reported to him.
's subordinates didn't wait long, and they saw such a group of barbarians out of the city. After receiving the report, Su Wuming led people to surround the barbarians, then dug up their graves and found that the princess had been stolen. All his belongings were in the coffin.
After the incident, Wu Zetian asked Su Wuming how he found out that these barbarians were thieves, Su Wuming replied: "A few days ago, when I first arrived at Luoyang , I happened to meet these barbarians at their burial. No one showed sadness at the funeral, so I suspected that there was something wrong with this group of people. But because I didn't know where they were buried at the time, I didn't make a fool of myself. Today is the Cold Food Festival, and the residents of the city are going to visit the tomb as usual. When I got the chance to go out of town to the cemetery, I ordered people to follow them, so I knew where they hid their belongings."
Su Wuming and Lu Lingfeng also met Su Wuming and Lu Lingfeng in the "Tuoshen" unit in "The Strange Record of the Tang Dynasty" Such a group of thieves dressed as funerals, it is estimated that the screenwriter also made an adaptation based on this little story.
Through the records of "Taiping Guangji", it can be seen that in the folktales of the Tang Dynasty, Su Wuming was already a master detective, but unfortunately most of the biographical novels about his detectives have not been handed down. However, with the popularity of "Story of the Tang Dynasty", Su Wuming finally began to attract people's attention. Of course, he is still far from catching up with Di Renjie.
