A-Lang said, "Leader, please tell me."

Yueli said: "I'll write a letter and you go to Chenjia Village to hand it over to Wang Xi, and then you help Wang Xi return to the Wang family in Yongcheng."

Shi Lang didn't ask much and nodded, "Yes."

Yue Li said: "I may stay a little longer when I go to the capital this time, Ah Lang, after a few days you will send Xiao Wan back to Yong City. Let Xiao Wan and Hou Xiao Helan discuss and resolve the issue of the Shigu Hall. Let Xiaowan go to Chen Ruzi if you encounter any problems."

"good."

Yue Li was worried about Wang Qing's current situation, so he wanted to rush to the capital as soon as possible, and said to An Ran: "An Ran, you go and arrange for the members of the Long Bing team to lead the horses to the villagers, and we will meet at the foot of the mountain."

"Yes, master."

After Yueli changed his clothes briefly, Shi Lang took the time to quickly organize a package for Yueli and sent him to the foot of the mountain. The ten members of the Long Bing Team were already waiting at the foot of the mountain. When they saw Yueli, they respectfully saluted and said, "I've seen the master."

Yue Li glanced at the crowd and said, "Ten of you follow me to the capital immediately."

Everyone said: "Yes, the master."

Yue Li said without further words: "Get on the horse," and everyone immediately stepped on the horse's back neatly.

Yue Li turned his head to look at An Ran and said, "Both of you go back." After speaking, he waved his whip and shouted "drive" and rode away first, ten members of the Long Bing team quickly followed up with their whips.

An Ran and An Ran couldn't help but look worried when they saw Yue Li's back. An Ran understood that Wang Qing's matter had been dragged on for so long and could not be resolved, so it must be very difficult.

Because Yue Li was worried that Wang Qing would not stop much on the road, he abruptly shortened the journey from 30 days to 20 days. By the time everyone in the capital was exhausted, Yue Li directly brought a few people to Wang Qing's mansion. Because Wang Qing won the imperial examination this time, Fenghuang granted her a house, so her place is easy to find.

Si Yue stepped forward and knocked on the door, and it was Xiao Lou who opened the door, seeing everyone, Xiao Lou was pleasantly surprised: "The master!"

Yueli nodded and said: "Go in and talk." Xiaolou quickly opened the door to let everyone in.

When they arrived at the main hall, Yueli asked Xiaolou to call his servants to arrange ten members of Long Bing team to go down to rest, and stayed in the main hall by himself, waiting for everyone to retreat. Yueli asked, "Xiaolou, how is Wang Qing doing now?"

Xiao Lou respectfully replied: "Master, Miss Qing's situation is not very good. Now the noble officials headed by Prime Minister Yan are determined to put Miss Qing to death. General Zhou also supports Prime Minister Yan. The humble officials headed by Prime Minister Fang have been doing things for Miss Qing. I beg for mercy, but everyone in the restaurant saw the accidental murder of Miss Qing that day, so Fang Xiang and the others don't take it seriously, but now they are pleading with Fenghuang for a lighter sentence on the grounds that Miss Qing has made merit in the imperial examination and Feng Xiang, this matter is delayed So far, it has only been a few days before the decision, and the Phoenix Emperor has already intended to..."

Yueli tapped the table with his hand and said, "Where is the empress, didn't she do anything?"

Xiaolou said: "The princess has been trying her best to save Miss Qing, and she did not hesitate to contradict Fenghuang many times, but now she has been grounded by Fenghuang."

Yueli snorted coldly and said: "Incompetent." Xiaolou stood with his hands down, not daring to answer.

Yue Li said: "I want to see Wang Qing, can you do it?"

Xiaolou hurriedly said: "The princess once left a token, and I have been able to secretly send some things to Miss Qing during these days."

Yue Li said: "Okay, now you follow me to the prison."

Xiaolou said: "Master, you are tired after driving all the way, why don't you rest for one night and go to the prison tomorrow?"

Yue Li waved his hand and said: "No, let's go now." Xiao Lou hurriedly went to hitch a carriage, and personally drove the carriage to send Yue Li to the prison.

When they arrived at the Heavenly Prison, because Xiaolou went to and from the Heavenly Prison many times, the cell boss already recognized her. Xiaolou secretly stuffed Laotou with some silver taels, then took Yueli into the Sky Prison, and walked to the cell where Wang Qing was. There was a person who was talking to Wang Qing at this time, Wang Qing slightly lowered his head and listened, when Xiaolou was about to speak out, Yue Li waved his hand to stop her.

The man said to Wang Qing: "Wang Qing, you were too aggressive this time to cause today's disaster. Do you know that the princess has repeatedly contradicted the Phoenix Emperor in order to save you, and now she is even grounded. Your Majesty loves the princess again." Women don't want a prince who always disobeys her."

Wang Qing lowered his head slightly and said indifferently: "Go back and tell Her Majesty that it is a crime to kill a minister by mistake, and it is not worth what Her Majesty will do for you."

The man shook his head and said, "Let's not say that Your Highness really wants to rescue you, even if the princess is not rescued, can those poor officials and students give up? You know, since the imperial examination was introduced, those poor students have always had a crush on you." I am very grateful and respectful. Your Highness promotes the imperial examination to win over poor students. What will happen if you are not saved? But if you are saved, all the newly promoted officials of the gentry will be dissatisfied and dismissed from office and return to their hometowns. You Tell me, what a problem you have caused His Highness, and now His Highness is in a dilemma."

Wang Qing listened silently.

The man continued to sigh and said: "Wang Qing, as subjects, we should share the worries of the Lord. How can we let the Lord worry about us all the time? Now, how do you think the matter should be resolved?"

Yue Li snorted coldly when he heard this, "You can't even protect your subordinates, what kind of master are you!"

Hearing the voice, Wang Qing and Wang Qing turned their heads to look at the prison door, and saw Yueli and Xiaolou standing there. The person knew Xiaolou, and seeing Yueli, he knew that the person who spoke just now was her. The man looked at Yue Li with an angry look on his face.

Xiao Lou hurriedly introduced to Yue Li: "Miss Li, this is Mr. Murong Bai, the second place in the new division," and then said to Murong Bai, "Mr. Murong, this is the senior sister of my young lady."

Yue Li went straight to the table, sat down, glanced at Murong Bai and said: "Go back and tell your master that you are incompetent if you can't save anyone, my junior sister has me to save her, so I don't need to bother you.

Murong Bai's expression was gloomy and he said: "Miss, you have such a big tone." Yue Li responded with a soft snort.

Seeing Yueli being so impolite, Murong Bai turned darker and said to Wang Qing: "Since your senior sister came to see you, I'll take my leave first." Before Wang Qing could reply, Murong Bai waved his sleeves and walked away angrily. When she reached the prison door, she turned her head and glanced at Yueli, her face was gloomy and her expression was thoughtful.

After Murong Bai left, Yueli took a closer look at Wang Qing. Wang Qing was much more mature than when he first left the village, but he also lost a lot of weight. After staying in prison for a long time, his complexion was a bit haggard, but his spirit seemed fine. Then he called softly: "Ah Qing."

Wang Qing smiled slightly and said, "You are here."

"Yeah." Yueli nodded and said, "Why are you so embarrassed?"

Wang Qing shook his head and did not speak.

"What happened that day?" Yue Li asked directly, obviously feeling that there was something hidden about Wang Qing's murder.

"It was me who accidentally killed someone," Wang Qing said.

Yue Li said in a cold tone: "You have no strength to restrain your chicken and you can kill someone by mistake, but the person who killed by mistake was a member of Yan's family. The Yan family must have deliberately set you up."

Wang Qing lowered his head slightly and stopped looking at Yueli.

Yueli softened his tone and said: "It's meaningless to say these things now, Ah Qing, it's just why you proposed land system reform so early. You clearly know that proposing land system reform is equivalent to disturbing the foundation of the gentry, and they will definitely not sit still. Now Just after the imperial examination, the empress should take advantage of the trend to reform the official system and redeploy officials to weaken the power of the gentry in the counties. This has not yet been done, and the reform of the land system should be gradually implemented. Why do you rashly propose at this time? I don't believe you don't understand that now is not the time."

"How many years will it take for the reform of the land system to be gradually implemented, three years, five years or ten years, how long can the people of Fengxiang wait?" Wang Qing asked calmly.

"I don't know if the people can't wait. You have no life to wait. The situation in the court is not stable. If you move the gentry now, it will only add to the chaos. What kind of local system do you want to reform? I think you should just change the dynasty." Got it?" Yue Li said angrily, suppressing his anger, Yue Li continued to ask, "You are not such a person without measure, I want to listen to the truth!"
