Chapter 107 I can’t wear her clothes On the racecourse. Zhou Yu's clothes were soaked with sweat. Royal science is actually a very tiring subject. During the driving process, you must maintain a high degree of concentration, which consumes a lot of physical and mental energy. Although I am already very tired. But he still kept practicing. Because Li Nuo was watching from the side. If he doesn't leave, it's hard for him to stop. Zhou Yu originally wanted to use the excuse of having dinner to go home and rest. But as soon as he finished a lap, he saw that Li Nuo had someone buy him dinner. It was not a simple meal at the racecourse, but a big meal at a restaurant outside.
The dinner was extremely sumptuous, with meat, vegetables, and desserts and fruits. Before eating, Li Nuo thoughtfully tested the poison on him with a doctor's poison-testing needle. Zhou Yu said in shock: "Brother Li, this is unnecessary, who would poison me..." Li Nuo put away the poison test needle and said: "You can't say that. You are a strong contender for the imperial examination. The imperial examination only happens once every four years. Who knows what despicable means those people will use to win the imperial examination. Be careful. You can’t go wrong with that.” Zhou Yu was his hope, so of course Li Nuo had to think carefully. Zhou Yu didn't say anything. He felt that Brother Li was really thoughtful and considered more carefully than his father. After eating, he felt that he had regained some strength, and he was too embarrassed to go back to rest. He gritted his teeth, dragged his tired body, and climbed onto the carriage again. At this time, Zhou Mansion. Over dinner. The doctor in the driving department glanced at a certain seat at the table and asked Zhou Tao: "Where is your brother, has he gone out to fool around again? It's only half a year before the imperial examination, and he is still so indulgent. I think he wants to go to the army to practice in the future!" " Zhou Tao put down his chopsticks and said, "Dad, you misunderstood. When I came back, I heard from Xu Yuan and the others that my brother had been practicing at the racecourse all afternoon. When they left, he was still practicing..." The doctor in the driving department was startled when he heard this and dropped all the vegetables he picked up with his chopsticks. When did that bastard become so diligent? He knows better than anyone how tiring the imperial examination is. Most people will exhaust their energy after running a few times. If you can practice Yuke all afternoon, you are either not paying enough attention to it, or you are working extremely hard. After the dinner, it was not until the sky darkened that Zhou Yu dragged his tired body back to Zhou's house. Yu Ke is really tired. One horse and one carriage all afternoon is more tiring than fighting several brothel girls all night. If Brother Li hadn't been watching from the side, he definitely wouldn't have been able to persevere. He was so tired that he didn't even want to take a shower. When he was about to go back to his room to sleep, a voice suddenly came from the courtyard.
"stop." The doctor from the driving department walked out of the room without saying anything. He just picked up Zhou Yu's hand and found a clear blood mark on his palm, which was obviously worn by the horse's reins. This shows that Zhou Tao didn't lie to him. This kid actually didn't fool around. I used both soft and hard tactics, persuading and punishing him, but I had never seen him work so hard before. I don’t know what kind of stimulation he received today, and he suddenly became more diligent. I just hope that he is not acting on a whim. If he can come back with a top score in imperial examinations, he will be considered a successor. He put down Zhou Yu's hand, his tone became softer, and said: "Go take a shower, go back to your room early to rest, train in a relaxed manner, and don't be too tired..." Although Zhou Yu was flattered that his father spoke to him so gently, he was so tired that he had no time to appreciate it. When he was taking a bath, he soaked in the tub and fell asleep... Song Mansion. Li Nuo also just took a shower. He is not tired, after all, he spent most of the day supervising Zhou Yu, so of course he will not be tired. But it's not like he did nothing. At least he slowly became familiar with the route a few times and went to the pasture to practice riding skills. After riding a horse for a long time, his body was naturally stained with some smell, and he had to wash it off before going to bed. Although the imperial examination did not test riding skills, riding skills was an essential life skill. The carriage is just comfortable to sit in. If you are really in a hurry, you have to ride a horse. A warrior in the fourth realm can burst out at a speed faster than a horse in a short period of time, but it is not long-lasting and his energy life is insufficient. Therefore, for a slightly longer journey, even warriors would choose to ride horses. Unless one can reach the fifth realm, the true energy is as vast as the sea, and can support long-term air flying. Legalists have reached the fifth level, and after controlling the power of exile, hurrying is no longer a problem. Exile can not only exile others, but also exile oneself. In one thought, one can exile oneself several miles away, which is equivalent to teleportation. When Li Nuo returned to the room, his wife was reading a book. I was reading books related to the imperial examination. Next to her, there is no longer a copy of "Shuowen". This shows that after this period of hard work, she has learned enough words. If things go on like this, I believe she will be able to get rid of the label of being uneducated. After a good sleep, Li Nuo did not go to the racecourse early the next morning. He planned to go to the Ministry of Punishment to have a look. It's been a week, and my lifespan has not been increased by a single day. Instead, my lifespan has been lost every day, and everyone is panicking.
It wouldn't be a problem if he continued to fall like this. After all, during the spring exam, he still had to use his lifespan to exchange for skills. In the past six months, he had to save more lifespan. Otherwise, it will be embarrassing if there is not enough replacement during the imperial examination. Li Nuo took a car to the Ministry of Justice. After yesterday's special training, Butler Wu was obviously much more stable in driving today. Li Nuo jumped off the carriage and said hello to the officer at the entrance of the criminal department. When he was about to walk in, he saw the two people winking at him vigorously. Before Li Nuo entered the Criminal Department, he saw two officials wearing yellow official uniforms walking out of the Criminal Department. They were about to leave, but saw Li Nuo walking into the Criminal Department. After looking at each other, they turned back. Li Nuo noticed the unusual behavior of the two men. He was already very familiar with Daxia officials. There were not many officials wearing yellow official uniforms in the court. The only ones who might be admonishment officials and middle-level officials in the province were ministers. In addition to reviewing edicts, the Menxia Province also has the responsibility of inspecting hundreds of officials. When Li Nuo was in the Chang'an County Government Office, he was caught by picket officials from Menxia Province. These two people may have come to the Ministry of Punishment on a routine basis to see if any of the officials of the Ministry of Punishment had neglected their duties. In the minds of officials from various ministries, these picket officials are the least popular ones. Li Nuo glanced at the two of them. As long as he was not in the Criminal Department for trial, the two of them could do nothing to him. If they wanted to stay, they could stay here. He walked into a government office. Li Anning was wearing the police uniform and was dozing off on a chair. Li Nuo coughed lightly, Li Anning opened his eyes, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and said confusedly: "Why are you here?" Li Nuo poured a glass of water for her. After Li Anning drank it all, Li Nuo said, "Let me see you." Li Anning woke up, glanced at him, and said calmly: "Look, I'm lying. Are you here to see if there are any cases in the Criminal Department?" She poured another glass of water and after drinking it said: "Didn't I say that if there is a big case, I will go to you? Why, you don't believe me?" There really weren't any big cases in Chang'an these days, and she was very bored. Li Nuo said: "There is no big case, small cases will do..." As of today, he only has 142 days left to live, which is less than five months, and it is still decreasing every day. It is better to work harder and add up to small cases than to sit back and have nothing. Li Anning thought for a moment and said, "Okay, just wait a moment." She walked out of the government office, and Li Nuo followed. Two provincial inspection officials stood in the yard and watched them. Li Anning paused and frowned slightly. These two advising doctors haven't left yet. Although she is not afraid of them, it will indeed be a bit troublesome if they get caught. As soon as she stretched out her hand, a vine whip from Li Nuo's waist flew into her hand.
Li Anning held the cane whip and said to Li Nuo, "I have nothing to do. I'll teach you a whipping technique." She glanced at the two admonishing doctors in the yard and said, "You two, please move out of the way. It won't be good if I accidentally injure you soon." After hearing this, the two retreated to a corner, but did not leave. Soft whips are different from steel whips, swords and other weapons. If you use them incorrectly, you can easily hurt yourself. This vine whip has its own legalistic power. Li Nuo tried it out at home and accidentally whipped himself. It was really painful. This whip was in Li Anning's hand, but it was particularly obedient. As she danced, sounds of breaking through the air filled the air from time to time. The two provincial officials watched the cane whip being whipped in front of them, with cold sweat pouring down their foreheads. Li Anning cracked the whip faster and faster, and the whip got closer and closer to the two of them. At a certain moment, the two finally couldn't resist the pressure, turned around and strode away... Li Anning put away the whip, threw it to Li Nuo again, and said, "Wait in my room for a while, I'll be right back." Li Nuo walked back to the room he was in. After a while, Li Anning came back and came back with a stack of files in his arms. She put the files on the table and said: "These are prison files sent in from various places. The head of the Ministry of Punishment has already reviewed them. You only need to stamp the seal of the Minister to take effect immediately, although it will not be as fast as the cultivation level of the prisoner. , but it’s better than nothing…” The local government can only impose flogging or cane punishment immediately. The final adjudication power of prison sentences lies with the Ministry of Punishment. She used to do this kind of thing, but since she was promoted to the fourth realm, it was just the final seal, which no longer had any effect on her cultivation. Li Nuo had just entered the country, and his final sentence was of great benefit to his practice. Li Anning handed a large black seal to Li Nuo and said, "Here, this is the seal of the Minister." Li Nuo reached out and took it, feeling that there was also a powerful force in this seal. Li Anning said: "The Ministry of Punishment is in charge of punishment, and the seals of the Minister and the Minister are also powerful magical weapons. You only need to stamp the seals on the back of these files." Li Nuo followed what Li Anning said and stamped the seal in his hand on the fixed location of each file. Several copies were stamped, but there was no change in the numbers on the codex. In the past, a one-year sentence could add one day to his life. But these cases had little to do with him. They were neither personally related to him nor solved by him. He just stamped them and it was normal not to extend his lifespan. However, after more than ten copies were stamped in succession, when Li Nuo placed the seal again, the number on the code jumped from one hundred and forty-two to one hundred and forty-three. The Ministry of Punishment is worthy of being the Ministry of Punishment. No wonder Li Anning's cultivation has grown so fast. Just by stamping the seal, the cultivation level will increase by itself. Although it is a bit slow, it is better than the ease. It is much easier than his hard work in judging cases. Li Nuo completed all the files in three strokes, five divided by two, and his life span was once again extended by one day, returning to one hundred and forty-four days.
Finally, a way to easily gain longevity was found. Li Nuo was a little unsatisfied and asked expectantly, "Are there any more?" Li An Ning shook his head and said, "These are all the files of imprisonment that have been accumulated in the past few days. In addition to these, there are files of exile and death penalty, but there are fewer of those two types. Once each file is delivered, it will be immediately sent to the Dali Temple after the Minister and the Minister use their seals, so that your father can make the final judgment..." If it is a case of imprisonment, you can gain longevity by stamping it. Then exile and death penalty can also be done. Theoretically, the death penalty can be added more. Seeing a figure hurriedly passing by the yamen and walking into another duty room, Li An Ning walked out of the room, and walked in again after a while, holding a file and a seal in his hand, handed it to Li Nuo, and said, "This is a death penalty file urgently sent from Liyang County, Jingzhao Prefecture. The Minister and the Minister have reviewed it. You just need to stamp it with the seal." In fact, the use of the death penalty seal can also play a role for her in the fourth realm. But it has a greater effect on Li Nuo. She didn't lack that tiny bit of cultivation. The most important thing now was to make him not lose faith in the legalists. Li Nuo liked the work of the Ministry of Justice very much. There was less work and leisure, and he could add more lives. When he was in the Chang'an County Office, he had to judge cases and mediate for a whole day to add one day of life. In the Ministry of Justice, he added it in less than a quarter of an hour. He carefully stamped the seals of the assistant minister and the minister of the Ministry of Justice, and then looked at the law code impatiently. "Life: 134." Li Nuo was stunned. No - how can it be reduced? Li Nuo stared at the number on the law code, feeling a little stupid. After stamping two seals, not only did the life span not increase, but it was reduced by ten days. He looked at the file first. There is a problem, absolutely a problem. The number on the law code cannot be reduced inexplicably, and he did not exchange anything. There is only one possibility for this situation. He made a wrong judgment. The prisoner in the file must not be dead. If a death sentence is correct, he will have ten days more life, and if a wrong sentence is made, ten days less. This is also a very reasonable thing. Except for breaking the realm, the changes in the cultivation of the legalists have a lag. If someone is wrongly killed, the legalist official who made the wrong judgment will not notice it in a short time. But Li Nuo can get timely feedback from the code. To be honest, he is a little wronged. The case was not judged by him, he just stamped it and directly deducted his life. The code is still as unreasonable as ever.
However, it is not wrong to say it is wrong. If the Ministry of Justice does not stamp it, this death penalty review will not pass. Li Anning noticed his abnormality and asked, "What's wrong?" Li Nuo could only look at her and said, "I think there is something wrong with this case..." Li Anning picked up the file and took a look. This is a very normal murder case. The murderer has confessed his guilt. There are his testimony and fingerprints on the file, and the chain of evidence is complete. For such a case without any doubts, the Ministry of Justice will generally pass it directly and then submit it to the Dali Temple. There are so many prefectures in Daxia, and there are hundreds or even thousands of murders reported every year. The Ministry of Justice cannot conduct on-site inspections and reviews of every case. After reading a file over and over again, she still couldn't see where the problem was, and finally couldn't help asking: "What is the problem?" Li Nuo couldn't say what the problem was, but the fact that he lost ten days of life was enough to explain the problem. He said very straightforwardly: "Intuition..., I suggest that the Ministry of Justice investigate this case carefully. I still think there is a problem with this case and it should not be closed so hastily." Li Anning moved her lips, but in the end she couldn't say anything. If someone else said this, she wouldn't even pay attention. But if it was Li Nuo... Should I say it or not, his intuition is really accurate. She thought about it and said: "Liyang is not far from Chang'an, I will ask someone to check it..., No, it's still early today, I'd better go there myself." Li Nuo was relieved that Her Royal Highness was willing to take action. Li Nuo pointed at the file and said, "What should we do with this file?" The file has been stamped with the seal of the Ministry of Justice, which is half legally effective. I don't know if he can get his life back if he tears it up or burns it. Li Anning said, "Put it here first. If there is really a problem with this case, this file will be invalid after the file is rebuilt. I'm going to Liyang right away. Do you want to come with me?" Li Nuo waved his hands and said, "No, no..." Although Liyang is a county adjacent to Chang'an, for him, Chang'an City is not absolutely safe, let alone going out of the city. After Li Anning left in a hurry, Li Nuo also left the Ministry of Justice with a depressed heart. He came here to find a case to extend his life. After a lot of work, he only added two days, and then he deducted ten days. It's so hard to live... When he walked out of the Ministry of Justice and prepared to return to the Song Mansion, Li Nuo took a closer look at the fortune-telling stall opposite. The fortune-teller didn't know what happened. He suddenly got angry and overturned the fortune-telling table, scaring passers-by to avoid him. After returning to the Song Mansion, Li Nuo didn't want to go out and stayed at home reading books.
The Imperial Examination was temporarily handed over to Zhou Yu. Li Nuo hadn't found a suitable candidate for the Archery Examination. He even thought about how to send his father to stay in there for two days... I don't know if he has neglected the Six Arts in the past 20 years. Of course, it's just a fantasy from time to time. Even if he was powerful back then, that was twenty years ago. If he were to take the imperial examination now, he might not even be able to pass the list. Moreover, no one could send the Dali Temple Minister in. After reading all day, Li Nuo closed the book until it was completely dark, and prepared to practice health-preserving exercises a few more times before going to bed. Li Nuo glanced at the code casually and was slightly stunned. One hundred and forty-four. His deducted life span returned. Before Li Nuo could wonder for long, Li Anning appeared in front of him. She stared at Li Nuo in disbelief, and asked, "How did you know?" Li Nuo asked, "What happened?" Li Anning said, "Today's case is really problematic. I went to Liyang County and found out that the case was that the Liyang County Lieutenant accepted bribes, killed people, and tortured them into confessing. That person was wronged. We almost killed a good person wrongly..." There was still some fear in her tone. If the case was wrongly judged, it would be a small matter for herself and the officials in the Ministry of Justice who handled the case to lose their cultivation, but it would be a big matter for an innocent life to die in vain. Liyang is close to Chang'an, and it can be regarded as the foot of the emperor. Under the foot of the emperor, a mere eighth-rank county lieutenant was so bold as to take human lives, which certainly made her angry. But what shocked her even more was that before the file was signed, the doctor, assistant minister, and minister of the Ministry of Justice had already reviewed it. No one, including Li Anning himself, saw the slightest doubt. But Li Nuo only took a glance and was sure that there was something wrong with this case. The previous cases were fine, at least he had been to the scene and seen the criminals hidden in the crowd. When she was at the scene in person, she could accurately find the criminal from some small expressions. Although Li Anning could not do it herself, she could still understand. But this time, he only took a glance at the file and avoided a wrongful case based on his intuition. She looked at Li Nuo and asked again, "How did you find out the problem?" Li Nuo shrugged and said, "I said, it's just intuition..." Li Nuo looked at Li An Ning, her hair was a little messy, and her clothes were full of dust. She must have been running around all day. Although Liyang County is not far from Chang'an, it takes half a day to go back and forth, and she has to investigate the case. Time should be very tight. Li An Ning was a little speechless.
Intuition. Why doesn't she have such an intuition? Even the fourth-level assistant minister of the Legalist family and the fifth-level Shangshu, who have solved countless cases, don't have such an intuition. Is he really a genius in solving cases? After calming down, Li An Ning finally felt tired. She was running around outside all day. But it was worth it to be tired. Not only did she avoid an unjust case involving human life, but she also caught a corrupt official, which was a greater gain than judging several human murder cases. After relaxing, she breathed a sigh of relief and took a deep breath. Then her brows furrowed. Li An Ning raised her arm and smelled it, and found that she was full of sweat. She looked down and found that the clothes were also very dirty. This made her a little unbearable, and she said to Li Nuo: "Let me take a bath here, and prepare a set of clean clothes for me..." Li Nuo looked at his wife not far away. Song Jiaren nodded slightly and arranged for the maid to go down and prepare for her. In a big family like the Song Mansion, each owner's yard has a separate room for bathing. The last wing room on the left side of the courtyard is the bathroom. After the maids of the Song Mansion prepared the hot water, bath salts and petals and other things needed for bathing, Li An Ning closed the door and refused the service of the two maids. Li Nuo sat in the yard and heard the sound of water coming from inside. Women take a bath slowly, but Her Royal Highness the Princess is even slower. Li Nuo waited for more than an hour and was tired. Only then did Li An Ning's voice come from the room behind him. "Is there anyone outside?" Li Nuo perked up and asked, "What else does Your Highness need?" Inside the bathroom, Li An Ning's voice came: "Please prepare another set of clothes for me." Li Nuo was a little surprised. Her constable uniform was dirty, so the lady lent her one of her own clothes. Did she get that set of clothes wet when she was taking a bath just now? Li Nuo stood outside and said, "Your Highness, wait a moment, I'll ask the lady to get another set." Li An Ning hurriedly said, "No, I don't want hers..." Li Nuo frowned. The lady kindly lent her clothes, but she still disliked them?
At this time, Li An Ning's embarrassed voice came again: "Her clothes, I can't wear them..."
