Madam, protect me!

Ningxinyuan.

Li Nuo walked to the small pavilion in the middle of the lake and fell into thought.

Daxia Chaotang was killed by his father and was no longer suitable for practicing Legalism. Even if he stayed in the Ministry of Punishment, at the normal speed, it would take at least ten years for him to cultivate from the fourth realm to the fifth realm.

If they want to take shortcuts and break through the situation quickly like before, I am afraid that only Prince Rui and Prince Gong will rebel, and then lead a group of henchmen and fall into his hands.

But this kind of thing is rare.

When legalists encounter this kind of situation, the most effective way is to find another place.

The earliest Legalists traveled among various countries to practice.

If Li Nuo was alone, that would be fine, it would only be half a year.

Jia He and An Ning were just pregnant, so it was definitely impossible to go with him, which meant they would be separated for half a year.

But the opportunity to quickly break through to the fifth level is rare.

Regardless of whether one is practicing martial arts or practicing various martial arts, the fifth level can be regarded as one of the truly powerful ones.

Today, Li Nuo has almost no power to fight back against the strong men in the fifth realm.

The current scenery of Li Mansion is only temporary, and no one can predict the future situation.

The situation in the court may reverse overnight. There are so many enemies of his father. Once his father falls, they will face endless enemies.

Li Nuo couldn't always rely on his father and wives, he wanted to be their support.

Zhao Guo provided him with an opportunity.

It was naturally impossible for him not to be tempted by this opportunity.

After thinking for a moment, he already made a decision in his mind.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps behind him.

Li Nuo turned around and saw Jia Jia and An Ning walking hand in hand.

An Ning habitually sat on his lap and asked, "What are you thinking about? I see you have been in a daze here for a while."

Li Nuo was silent for a moment and then told them about the matter.

After hearing this, Jiaren and An Ning looked at each other. Jiaren held his hand and said, "Master, go do what you want to do. I and An Ning will take care of themselves. Don't worry about us."

An Ning also smiled at him and said, "However, Sister Jiaren and I are not with you, so you can't mess around with others there. Don't wait until half a year later to bring us one or two sisters back."

Li Nuo flicked her forehead lightly. He went to Zhao country for important matters, not to pick up girls.

It was all because of the old fortune teller who told Butler Wu that he still had several destined marriages. As a result, An Ning would question him twice every two days whether he had provoked any girls.

After asking for their opinions, Li Nuo had almost made a decision.

Beauty and An Ning are in Chang'an and can receive the most attentive care. There is indeed nothing to worry about.

It's only been half a year, and after half a year, he still had time to see his child born when he came back.

However, he still had to inform his father of this decision.

Dali Temple.

When Li Nuo walked into the government office, he saw his father flipping through the files. King Chun was sitting in the corner, playing chess with himself, enjoying himself a lot.

Seeing Li Nuo walking in, he immediately waved and said, "You're just in time, come and play two games of chess with me."

His father was not only the minister of Dali Temple, but also in charge of the Mirror Department. He had to read countless files every day. Li Nuo was not in a hurry anyway, so he sat down to play chess with King Chun.

He only knew a little bit about Go before, and usually only played backgammon with Mu'er. This time when he played against King Chun, he was very good at it. Li Nuo himself was surprised.

Go is a game that is very popular in all the countries in the mainland. Anyone who is a scholar must know a few moves. Maybe it is because there are more people. During a certain fusion, the level of Go has also improved. He didn't realize it until now.

King Chun pinched the chess piece and said in surprise: "It's a good move. You don't mean to say that you have a little understanding. You two, father and son, are exactly the same humble..."

Li Xuanjing didn't know when he finished what he was doing, walked behind Li Nuo, and watched him play chess with King Chun.

While King Chun was thinking, Li Nuo happened to tell his father about the incident.

Before Li Xuanjing said anything, King Chun said in surprise: "What, you want to go to Zhao Kingdom? OK, what are you going to Zhao Kingdom for?"

Li Nuo said: "With my current cultivation level, Zhao country is more suitable for my cultivation..."

…

After a while, King Chun looked at Li Nuo's leaving figure and asked Li Xuanjing in confusion: "How can you agree to him? Zhao is not Chang'an. What if something happens?"

Li Xuanjing continued Li Nuo's chess game just now and said, "When children grow up, they have their own ideas and their own path to follow."

King Chun seemed to have thought of something, and sighed leisurely, with a rather emotional expression.

This is the truth, but you can’t walk randomly...

Li Nuo already has two wives and is about to have three children. The guy in his family never goes out or steps outside the door every day. He can only tinker with a pile of broken wood. Even when he sleeps at night, he sleeps with a wooden figure in his arms. …

I really don’t know what’s so good about that pile of broken wood. Could it be possible for him to survive and give birth to a child for him?

Zhongshu Province.

As the end of the year approaches, Zhongshu Province is quite busy.

At the end of the year, there are more memorials from various ministries. On the other hand, it coincides with the envoy conference, and economic and political cooperation with various countries must be finalized through the Zhongshu Ministry.

Today, the officials of Zhongshu Province, including Zhongshu Sheren and Zhongshu Shilang, are extremely careful.

Because the Prime Minister is in Zhongshu Province today.

The official title of the Right Prime Minister is Shangshu Ling, who is in charge of the Shangshu Province and the six ministries. In addition, the left and right prime ministers also have an overview of the court affairs. They have the power to intervene in the affairs of any department.

The Right Prime Minister occasionally comes to the Zhongshu Province to look at the memorials of various departments and see how the Zhongshu Sheren handles them. If he catches any official's omissions, that official will definitely be scolded by him.

Compared with the amiable Left Prime Minister, the officials of the Zhongshu Province are naturally more afraid of the strict Right Prime Minister.

In a certain government room, Du Yu stood behind the Right Prime Minister, trembling with fear.

The Right Prime Minister checked the memorials he handled today.

He prayed in his heart that there would be no mistakes...

But what he feared came true. Just when he was feeling uneasy, he saw the Right Prime Minister frowning.

Du Yu immediately looked at the memorial. After a glance, he remembered that it was a memorial from a young official of the Censorate. He hoped that the court would issue a decree to limit the amount of land that aristocratic families could own and set an upper limit on the land that they could exempt from tax.

He had never approved such memorials.

This was not something that he could decide with a memorial.

The official also looked up to the Secretariat.

How could the Secretariat have the ability to decide these things?

However, the right prime minister did not make things difficult for him, but put the memorial into his sleeve.

Although the court stipulated that these memorials should be handled uniformly in the end and could not be intercepted and disposed of privately, he did not dare to correct the right prime minister.

Then, the right prime minister looked at another memorial.

Du Yu took a look and felt relieved.

This was a memorial from the Honglu Temple. According to convention, Daxia should send a new batch of envoys to Zhao.

Daxia and Zhao are friendly countries. The two countries have many in-depth cooperations and send the most envoys to each other. These envoys are usually rotated every two years. This batch of envoys is about to return to their country, and the Zhongshu Province will draw up a new list of envoys.

The right prime minister looked back and asked, "Has the list of envoys to Zhao been drawn up this time?"

Du Yu hurriedly said, "Reply to the right prime minister, the Ministry of Personnel has already drawn it up a few days ago."

The right prime minister said, "Show it to me."

Du Yu took out a list from his drawer and handed it to the right prime minister respectfully.

After reading it, the right prime minister picked up a pen and wrote another line on the paper, saying, "Just follow this list."

After that, he got up and left.

Du Yu took the list and looked up. That line of fresh ink was a few vigorous big characters.

Li Nuo, the doctor of the Ministry of Justice.

Du Yu sighed in his heart. Sure enough, he angrily confronted the right prime minister in the Zhongshu Province last time, making the right prime minister embarrassed in front of everyone. How could this matter end easily?

Being an envoy to the State of Zhao was not a tough job, but it could add to his resume. Usually, he would be promoted immediately after the mission. But I am afraid that he would not be seen in Chang'an for a long time...

The Right Prime Minister left the Secretariat and returned to the Ministry of Shangshu.

He walked into the government office, threw the memorial in his sleeve into the stove, looked at the blazing flames in the stove, and said in a deep voice: "Young man, you don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is..."
