The rule of Li County has always been to go to court early every fifth day and take a break every tenth day.
But this spring, the young prefect who had been away fighting since he came to the throne returned to Licheng and went to court early every day for several days in a row.
It was not until the holiday finally came around that the officials were able to get up later, which made many people secretly relieved.
Luo Chuan still woke up under that tree. A night of practice made him energetic. He raised his head to look at the big torch-like tree, feeling the fire energy around him that was far or near, either violent or warm.
It's as comfortable as sitting in the warm winter sun.
But his mood was not as comfortable as he felt, because he could never find a way to break the golden chain, or even shake it at all.
The fire color of his sea of qi is getting darker and darker, his fire energy is becoming more and more condensed, and even the flow speed of the energy he controls is getting faster and faster. He definitely feels that he is much stronger than when he was in Southern Xinjiang.
Little, but in front of that golden chain, all his seemingly huge changes did not change the result even a little bit.
The reasonable explanation is that maybe his efforts are in the wrong direction at all.
Or maybe he is working in the right direction, but he needs to spend a lot of time in this direction.
Now, he feels that the thing he lacks most is time...
Take a deep breath and suppress all thoughts about cultivation in your heart.
He stood up quietly, and when he walked out of the East Side Hall, he saw the sun was shining brightly.
"Life should be devoted to beautiful things, right?" Luo Chuan knew that what appeared next to him was a shadow without even looking.
The shadow that was originally looking towards the fire parasol tree in the hall through the palace door heard this, looked at the sky in the direction of Luo Chuan's gaze, and then said, "Practice every night can't be completely stopped, I'm not sure you
Have you controlled it so that it doesn't appear easily? Also, Lu Tieshan and Lu Sifan have arrived in Licheng."
Most of Luochuan's good mood that had just appeared suddenly disappeared, "Where are they now?"
"I just entered the city. It seems that I am going to someone's house over there in Jiangjun Lane." The shadow turned to look in the direction of Huo Wutong again. "Cangyan's Ling Jingzi is with them." She took out a book from her arms
The small booklet was handed to Luo Chuan, "This is the information about the person you want."
"Oh," Luo Chuan took the book and waved his hand to keep Gao Shixian and the palace attendants away. Only he and the shadow walked towards the front palace, reading over it and said, "Let the Lu family brothers and sisters come first.
Please meet me in the palace. Since we have already arrived in Licheng, we have to meet them sooner or later. Will Fairy Lingjing meet them outside the city?"
"It should be earlier," Shadow said.
Luo Chuan hummed, quickly read the booklet and lowered his voice very low, "A, B, B, D, and W, is he the only one who knows the name?"
The shadow sent the voice into Luochuan's ears, "Yes, these five people are independent of any organization in Li County. Even I don't know their situation. Apart from knowing that he is A, I only know that B is probably also in the palace.
among.”
Luo Chuan nodded and put the book away, "Now there are more and more people from all over the city gathering. How is the ANBU investigation going?"
"It's more difficult. Except for those who have direct contact with espionage networks in various places, it is difficult for most people to distinguish whether they are standing still or whether they are really innocent. After all, once we transcend Hanzhou in southwest China, we will be completely powerless."
There was no emotion in Shadow's tone, but he spoke a little slower than usual, "Those who have confirmed the identities of the secret spies, do you want...?"
"No need," Luo Chuan pondered as he walked, "civil and military examinations are not a short-term matter. Compared with how many people will be available after the first test, what I care more about is how many people in the world will hear about it after the first test, and will
I am willing to travel thousands of miles to leave the city, so even if you know that they are indeed secret spies, you cannot kill people before the exam, so as not to be taken advantage of to cause trouble and ruin the reputation of the civil and military exams. However, you can hand over a list to Dou Qiushi and wait until
All we have to do is kick these people out when the final results are announced. After all, this is the first civil and military examination in history, so there is nothing to worry about."
Bidige
He thought for a while and then said, "As for those who are hiding in the dark and quietly intending to lurk in the officialdom of Li County for a long time, we can only take long-term precautions and focus on taking care of them. It is easy to let them in but difficult to leave. After all, even if there are no civil and military achievements,
, those states and counties that want to send people to my Li County also have such methods, this just makes me more careful when employing people, and in the future... naturally it will not be a big problem. "
"If that's all, it would be better if there were fewer people to take the civil and military exams this time. Nowadays, dragons and snakes are mixed in Li City. How many people are there who are truly talented and learned?" Shadow said.
Luo Chuan looked at the shadow and smiled and said, "Have you noticed that you are becoming more and more like an ordinary person?" He shook his head again and denied, "You are just an ordinary person." After laughing for a while, he wanted to put his hands
Just like in the previous life, he put it in his pocket. After groping for a few times, he remembered that there is no such thing in clothes in this world. He had to give up and put his hands behind his back.
No, it won’t work if there are too few or too many people. It is indeed a troublesome thing, but... let’s see what Dou Qiushi and Zhou Zhongqing can do with it. After all, it is a troublesome thing.
It only has value when it’s done well, otherwise wouldn’t it be too boring?”
"For example, the golden chain in your Qi Sea?" Shadow said.
The expression on Luo Chuan's face was a little stiff, thinking that if the person in front of him looked too much like an ordinary person, he might not be too ordinary. "Since Fairy Lingjing has returned to Licheng, let's solve the problem of this golden chain.
Then I should have a clue, the master of Cangyan Mountain just locked it for me but didn't tell me how to unlock it, it's really...irresponsible."
While talking, the two of them had already walked through the main hall of the front palace and bypassed the giant bronze cauldron. Luo Chuan sat down in the middle of the highest step where he usually sat. He looked around at the people far and near, some were busy cleaning and some were walking in a hurry.
Luo Chuan lowered his voice and asked the palace attendants and maids, "Many people died in the prefect's palace last winter. Are the remaining backgrounds considered innocent now?"
Shadow nodded, "The palace waiters and maids have chosen thousands of innocent characters. After last winter, some of the ones who were a little uncertain have died. Although the number of these now is small,
, on the contrary, you can absolutely rest assured that the maids, Gao Shixian, added some things some time ago, so there is no problem."
Luo Chuan nodded, "Before going to southern Xinjiang, Gao Shixian told me that there are not enough waiters now. I originally thought it was too cruel to create palace waiters and refused, but I heard from Zhou Zhongqing that there have been continuous refugees since the beginning of this spring.
The influx of people from Wuzhou in the northwest to Li County felt that compared to starving people to death, being able to enter the palace would at least not worry about a bite to eat, so they agreed... In today's world...
..."
"You can only do what you can do," Shadow saw Luo Chuan looking at her in surprise, and then added, "Your father said that."
Luo Chuan smiled, "Whoever said it, it's yours when it comes into your mouth," he slowly stood up and patted the dust behind his butt, looking at the young people at the gate of the palace who seemed a little uneasy.
The person murmured, "How should I deal with you...it's really a headache..."
