Madam, protect me!

Yuyin Pavilion.

Li Nuo said yesterday that he would give Phoenix a copy of the health-preserving exercises.

On the way to the Ministry of Justice today, when passing by Yuyin Pavilion, I gave her the exercises.

It is better to teach a person to fish than to teach a person to fish. Instead of giving some expensive supplements, it is better to solve the problem of her weak constitution from the root.

This "Su Nv Sutra" was specially selected by my wife for her.

Even if she has no foundation in martial arts, practicing twice a day can slowly improve her physical condition, so that she won't be unable to walk if she is frightened.

In the room on the second floor, Fenghuang accepted the technique and said, "Thank you, sir."

Li Nuo waved his hand and said: "Remember to practice every day, it will be good for your body."

Phoenix nodded obediently and said softly: "The slave family will do it."

The gift had been delivered, and Li Nuo simply turned around and left.

Watching him leave neatly, Fenghuang held the "Su Nv Sutra" in his hand and sighed leisurely: "Is there really nothing in this Yuyin Pavilion worth his nostalgia..."

Nightingale stood beside her and said: "Give up, you are not the type he likes. Besides, if he really falls in love with you, what should you do? Do you really have to devote yourself to it?"

What Nightingale said made sense. Phoenix looked at her and said, "How about you give it a try, maybe he really likes your type."

Nightingale said angrily: "I am your biological sister!"

Fenghuang smiled and said: "That's why I want to find a good husband for you. Isn't the son of the Minister of Dali Temple in Daxia not prominent enough? Everything is for the sake of the overall situation. It's a pity that my chest is not as flat as yours, otherwise I I just did it myself..."

…

Li Nuo didn't know what happened to Yuyin Pavilion later.

As soon as he arrived at the Criminal Department, he learned an unexpected thing from Li Anning.

The murder case of Huang and his wife was solved.

Li Nuo said in surprise: "How was it broken?"

He and Li Anning put in so much effort, pretending to be a couple and acting as undercover agents, without finding even a hair on the murderer, but they just slept and the case was solved.

From Li Anning's mouth, Li Nuo quickly learned what happened.

It’s true that the flowers planted with intention do not bloom, but the willows with unintentional planting create shade.

Last night, a large house in Chang'an was robbed. The thief was caught on the spot by several nursing staff and was transferred to the Criminal Department this morning.

After that, people from the Ministry of Punishment searched his home and found a lot of property, including antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jewelry, and various types of property.

This person could not explain the origin of these things, and the source of these property was obviously not clean.

If it's just theft, that's it. For simple theft, the upper limit is three years in prison and three thousand miles in exile.

But when the Criminal Department searched this person's residence, they found something abnormal in the soil somewhere in the backyard.

They thought there was hidden loot.

After digging deep, a bloody garment was dug out.

Now the nature of the case has changed.

After returning to the Criminal Department, this person initially argued that he was accidentally infected by killing chickens, but with the help of the Great Memory Restoration Technique, he quickly remembered what happened.

A few days ago, he entered a wealthy family's house and stole it.

With his cultivation in the True Qi Realm, burglary couldn't be easier for him.

Ordinary wealthy people, even if they have a caretaker, are not too strong. Even if they are discovered, they can escape unscathed.

While rummaging through his belongings, he made a little noise and accidentally woke up his owner who was sleeping on the bed. He planned to run away, but the couple refused to let him go and insisted on arresting him before the judge.

In a rage, he killed the couple and fled.

In order not to reveal his strength, he pretended to fight with the two for a while, creating the illusion that the murderer was not good at martial arts.

Relying on the strength of the True Qi Realm, he specializes in stealing from wealthy people and never fails.

But he didn't expect to encounter a tough idea last night. The family's guards included four third-level guards. When he retreated after succeeding, he was captured on the spot.

The bloody clothes at home were not cleaned up, and the murder case was also discovered.

Compared with Zhao Dong, the king of blocking the blockade, this person is obviously an unprofessional thief.

But his strength is not weak, and he steals solely by virtue of his cultivation, rather than his superb stealing skills.

It is not surprising that such a person has not been noticed and discovered by the police.

Li Nuo asked: "Where is the file on this case?"

Li Anning took out a file and said, "I'll keep it for you."

All the detectives in the Criminal Department are under her, and the few detectives who happen to solve the case are not legal practitioners, so the power of using seals will eventually fall into her hands.

Li Nuo was not polite and stamped two seals.

Although the numbers on the codex have not increased, they have not decreased either.

His cultivation had reached a bottleneck, and he was not the one who solved the case, so it was normal that his lifespan would not increase.

However, the number on the code has not been reduced, indicating that the case was not wrongly judged.

The Huang couple really died at the hands of this person.

Although he was very curious about how two ordinary people, the Huang couple, could be so unrelenting to a master of the True Qi Realm and forced him to kill him, the code never missed it, and there was no doubt that this person was the real murderer.

It's just that he happened to choose the same target as Zhao Dong on the same night, and they attacked first and then later, confusing everyone's sight, including Li Nuo.

Now, the real murderer has been arrested and the case has finally come to an end.

After putting away the file, Li An Ning looked at Li Nuo and said, "By the way, there is something I want to discuss with you, and I may need your help."

Li Nuo nodded: "Go ahead."

Based on their relationship, he would definitely not want to go through fire and water.

Other things can be discussed.

Li An Ning said: "I have an idea, you can listen to it and see if it is feasible..."

After listening to her next words, Li Nuo had to admit that the old ginger is still spicy. Although Li An Ning is not old, she is very spicy.

Although the thieves' sect was almost wiped out by them, the thieves' sect members were not all the thieves in Chang'an.

Not even one-tenth.

Every member of the thieves' sect is a carefully selected elite among the thieves, while most of the thieves in Chang'an are scattered thieves without organization and discipline.

Compared with the thieves' sect, they are more harmful to ordinary people.

The thieves' sect is organized and disciplined, and they emphasize that a thief has his own code of conduct, and they are more inclined to steal from the rich.

Those individual thieves are not only numerous, but also have no bottom line. They don't care about ten thieves and ten don't steal. Instead, they are more inclined to steal from the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, because they are easier to steal.

This is not to whitewash the thieves. Even if they have principles, they are doing things that are not allowed to be seen in the light and are easy to get without work.

Li Anning means that some of the thieves who have been caught in the thieves should be selected to set up a thief arrest department.

The thieves are the ones who know the thieves best, especially those who are in charge, who can be called scouts of the thieves. Each of them climbed up by their own ability and has the ability to recognize people of the same trade in the crowd at a glance.

If they can cooperate, under the Ministry of Justice, an organization dedicated to catching thieves can be established. Wouldn't it be easy to catch those petty thieves?

On the one hand, this is a good thing that benefits the people.

On the other hand, it is also a way for these thieves to atone for their crimes.

Finally, this matter was promoted by her and Li Nuo. In the future, every achievement of this organization will be credited to them.

This is not a one-time deal, but a sustainable path of cultivation.

As expected of a senior legalist of the fourth realm, he could come up with such an idea.

Li Nuo asked directly, "What do you need me to do?"

Li An Ning said, "In addition to the original four departments of the Ministry of Justice, another department has already involved the reform of the Ministry of Justice, which requires the consent of the three provinces. The people to be recruited by the Anti-Theft Department are all thieves who have been sentenced. There has never been such a precedent before. The three provinces will definitely not approve it, unless..."

Li Nuo asked, "Unless what?"

Li An Ning looked at him and said, "Unless your father takes action."

Even the Minister of the Ministry of Justice has no power to decide on this matter.

Although the Dali Temple Minister cannot directly ask the Ministry of Justice to add an Anti-Theft Department, he has a great say. In court affairs, what he says is more effective than her, the princess.

After a moment, Li Nuo nodded and said, "I'll try."

When he left the yamen, he took two oranges from Li An Ning's table.

Li Anning said angrily, "These are the best tribute oranges from Jiangnan. They are very rare. The Princess's Mansion has only been allocated a few. There are only two left. You still take them!"

Li Nuo said, "I'm going to the Dali Temple to ask my father. I can't go empty-handed, right?"

The expression on Li Anning's face eased.

It's good that it's not for Song Jiaren.

It's not against Song Jiaren.

I just don't like him stealing her oranges to please other women.

Li Nuo walked out of the gate of the Ministry of Justice with two oranges in his pocket.

He habitually glanced across the street and didn't see the fortune-telling grandfather and grandson.

It seems that I haven't seen them recently.

Li Nuo got on the carriage and said to Wu Guanjia, "Go to the Dali Temple."

It's reasonable to bring some gifts when meeting Fenghuang.

It's not necessary to give gifts when meeting your own father.

That's too distant.

Li Anning's oranges are really delicious. Bring two for his father to try. Speaking of which, he hasn't seen him for many days.

Not long after, the carriage stopped in front of the Dali Temple.

Li Nuo jumped off the carriage, and when he looked up, his expression was slightly stunned.

On the street opposite the Dali Temple, there was a fortune-telling stall.

The girl looked at Li Nuo who got off the carriage from a distance and said, "Grandpa, it's him again..."

The fortune-teller looked disgusted and said speechlessly, "Why is he everywhere!"

He knew that this person's fate was strange, but he couldn't help it. His right hand fingers trembled quickly under the table, and the expression on his face gradually became blank and dull.

At this time, Li Nuo had already walked into the Dali Temple.

Dali Temple, Temple Court.

The young man in black walked into the court room and said, "Sir, the young master is here."

Li Xuanjing put down a file in his hand, and Li Nuo walked in from outside, looking at the elegant man sitting behind the table, and said, "Dad..."

Although the two had not met a few times in total, there was an unbreakable blood connection in their bodies.

Li Xuanjing stood up, walked out from behind the table, and said, "Sit down."

Li Nuo sat down on the chair next to him, took out two oranges from his arms and put them on the table next to him, saying, "These are tribute oranges from Jiangnan, sent by Her Royal Highness the Princess. They taste very good. Dad, please try them."

Li Xuanjing sat down on another chair next to the table, picked up an orange and peeled it, but did not eat it himself, but handed it to Li Nuo.

After Li Nuo took it, he broke off an orange segment and put it in his mouth. Just as he was thinking about how to start, Li Xuanjing said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Li Nuo smiled sheepishly and said, "There is indeed something I want to ask dad for help with..."

After explaining the matter discussed with Li Anning in detail, Li Nuo added: "We are not trying to turn the Ministry of Justice into five departments. The Anti-Theft Department is not considered the head of the Ministry of Justice, nor does it require a salary from the court. It's just that I hope that those prisoners can be mobilized appropriately, so that they can make up for their mistakes to a certain extent, which can be regarded as another kind of labor, which is also a good thing for the people. "

Li Xuanjing took a sip of tea and said: "Let the thief catch the thief. There has never been such a precedent before. The three provinces may not pass it. Let me try to hand over a coupon first."

Li Nuo said: "Thank you, Dad."

Li Xuanjing did not continue the topic and asked: "How are you and Jiaren doing lately?"

Li Nuo replied: "It's very good. You don't have to worry about it."

The father and son chatted some more about family matters. When he saw someone coming in with a pile of files, Li Nuo stood up and said, "I won't disturb Dad from handling official business. I'll go back first."

Li Xuanjing nodded, remembered something, and said: "Yesterday King Chun sent two boxes of tribute oranges. I don't like eating them, so you can just take them back."

After a while, Li Nuo walked out of the government office. Butler Wu and a young man walked behind him, each holding a box of tribute oranges in their arms.

When he was about to leave Dali Temple, he suddenly heard a burst of music coming from a room somewhere.

This music is sometimes soothing, making people feel peaceful, sometimes exciting, making people's hearts surging, and sometimes it is tactfully sad, making people feel depressed...

Li Nuo stood at the door of the room and looked at the young man playing the piano inside, feeling very surprised.

After not seeing Liu Shang for a month, his piano skills improved a lot.

Today's Li Nuo is no longer a novice.

The piece just now had no emotion, it was all technique.

In terms of connotation, it is not even as good as the music composed by Phoenix himself.

But his playing skills have reached their peak.

This is completely Liu Shang's work to show off his skills.

In the room, Liu Shang slowly stood up, looked at a middle-aged official from Dali Temple, twitched his lips, and asked: "Master Zhang, I wonder if the song I played just now has some of the same skills as before. ?”

Zhang Sizheng took a sip of tea and said nothing.

In just one month, Liu Shang's piano skills have surpassed the previous peak and reached a new level.

Last time at Dali Temple, I just pointed out his regression in recent years, and Liu Shang got into a fight with him.

Every few days, he would come to Dali Temple and play a piece of music in front of him.

He saw with his own eyes that his piano skills were returning to the peak little by little, and today he had a new breakthrough.

Although Liu Shang's face at the moment really deserves a beating.

But as a music lover, he was very pleased to see a music genius re-emerge.

After leaving Dali Temple, Liu Shang came to Baihua Tower again.

Today, he was in a good mood to avenge his shame in front of Zhang. He strode into Baihua Tower and came out refreshed after a full quarter of an hour.

Two Dali Temple officials were already waiting for him outside.

Liu Shang's expression froze: "Are you coming again?"

Zhang Sizheng looked at him with a smile and asked: "Master Liu, should you go to Dali Temple by yourself, or should we take you?"

In the same scene, Liu Shang was no longer as fearful as the first time. He waved his sleeves and said, "I have my own feet, so I don't need to trouble you..."

At the entrance of the criminal department, when Li Nuo jumped off the carriage, Liu Shang's portrait had been lit up again.

However, the current portrait is already version 2.0.

Speaking of which, if you catch him once a day for a legitimate reason and close it for a day at a time, his portrait will never go out. Not only can you experience the latest version in real time, but he won't have to waste his life to change it.

It's just a bit too inappropriate.

As soon as she stepped into Li Anning's office, she couldn't wait to ask: "How is it?"

Li Nuo said: "My father said, give me a letter first and give it a try."

He took out a few oranges from his pocket, placed them on the table in front of Li Anning, and said, "I'll give you these oranges back."

Li Anning was slightly stunned and asked: "Only the royal family has a quota for these tribute oranges. Where did you get them?"

Li Nuo said: "Uncle Chun Wang gave it to my father. My father didn't like to eat it, so he asked me to bring it back."

Li Anning rolled her eyes at him and said, "You have a conscience."

Li Nuo clapped his hands and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

Li Anning picked up the oranges and said, "Just in time, I want to go back to the Princess Mansion too, let's go together."

Li Nuo was stunned for a moment and said, "We are not on the right path..."

Li Anning glared at him: "Are you in a hurry? The princess's mansion is not far away. Why don't you send me back first?"

Without waiting for Li Nuo's consent, she walked outside on her own.

When Li Nuo caught up with her, she had already gotten into the carriage parked outside the Criminal Department.

The next moment, Li Anning opened the car curtain, poked his head out of the car, looked at Li Nuo angrily, gritted his teeth and said: "Two boxes of tribute oranges, just give me five. You stole more than five from me." , where is your conscience?”

Li Nuo explained: "Aren't I afraid that you won't be able to finish eating and it will go bad..."

Li Anning sneered and said: "You are very considerate, but this is a farmer's tribute orange. It won't go bad if you keep it for a long time, and you won't turn yellow if you eat too much..."

Li Anning forced herself into the car, so Li Nuo had to send her back first.

After arriving at the princess residence, Li Anning got off the carriage.

Also getting off the bus was his box of oranges.

There were two boxes of oranges, one for her, and the other had to be divided among the wife, Muer, Ninger, and a few for the old lady, but Li Nuo couldn't say anything to her...

It was just a box of oranges, there was no need to argue with her.

Compared with the wife and Muer, she seemed to like eating oranges more.

When returning to the Song Mansion, passing by Yuyin Pavilion, Li Nuo took out a few more oranges from another box.

Although the effect of this tribute orange is not as good as the previous peach, eating more is also good for the body, especially for ordinary people, and it is most suitable for weak women like Fenghuang.

There are at least dozens of oranges in this box, and it doesn't matter if Fenghuang gives a few more.

Otherwise, he would feel embarrassed to move her flowers every time.

On the second floor of Yuyin Pavilion, Fenghuang looked at Li Nuo unexpectedly. He came to Yuyin Pavilion more times in the past two days than in the previous two months.

She blinked and asked, "Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"

Li Nuo took out five oranges from his arms, put them on the table, and said, "Nothing, I just happened to pass by here, so I'll give you some oranges."

Phoenix was used to him taking gifts out of his arms, but she knew at this moment that these ordinary oranges were not ordinary. The tribute oranges from Jiangnan were only for the royal family, and outsiders had no luck to enjoy them.

Li Nuo looked at a vase of flowers on the table and asked, "This vase of flower arrangement..."

Phoenix came back to her senses and said, "If you like it, I'll give it to you..."

After a while, Li Nuo got on the carriage with two pots of flower arrangements and was satisfied.

On the second floor of Yuyin Pavilion, Nightingale looked at the carriage going away and said in confusion: "It's strange. You said he didn't care about you, but he gave you such precious tribute oranges. He said he cared about you, but he left after giving you the oranges..."

Turning around, she saw Fenghuang locked all five oranges in the cabinet. After a slight pause, she asked: "What do you mean? Are you afraid that I will snatch your oranges?"

Fenghuang glanced at her and said lightly: "From childhood to adulthood, you have never snatched anything from me..."

...

Song Mansion, Li Nuo jumped off the carriage holding a box of oranges.

In Dali Temple, Li Xuanjing closed a memorial he had just drafted.

Opening a new death penalty review file sent by the Ministry of Justice, his eyes lingered on a certain name.

Zeng Yan.

Former treasurer of the inner palace of the crown prince.

This is the second former official of the Eastern Palace to die in recent months.

After thinking for a moment, he tapped the table twice lightly.

The young man in black came in from outside and asked, "What do you want, sir?"

Li Xuanjing said slowly, "Send someone to the Ministry of Personnel and the Shang Palace Bureau to retrieve the list of officials from the former East Palace and the Crown Prince's Inner Palace, but don't let anyone know..."
