"Five: Same as number two."
"Three: Explain in detail."
Instinctively, Li Qingcha's eyes were fixed on the words "major case".
"Gu..."
She swallowed and suddenly became agile, picking up the basin and scooping water to wash her face.
Gong Lianxue: ???
"What are you doing?"
"No," Li Qingcha said, "I just want to leave early."
While talking, pay attention to the chat group.
"One: Only the government knows about this matter at the moment."
"Two: No wonder."
"Second: So, you are an official now?"
Number 2 is most likely a Confucian scholar. This is an open secret in the group.
When he asked No. 1 whether he was an official, he was not necessarily testing No. 1's identity. Perhaps he just felt that since they both came from Confucian backgrounds, they could establish a trusting relationship first.
Li Qingcha was also curious and paused slightly.
result,
"One: I'm just well-informed."
"Two: Okay."
"Two: Let's get back to the point. What's the big case?"
"One: Kill the officials."
"..."
The whole group fell silent.
Li Qingcha's face washing speed increased again.
In Gong Lianxue's eyes, the stupid senior brother went through the changes of fast→slow→fast→stop→fast and looked like an idiot.
The girl didn't know how to complain.
She slapped Li Qingcha's shoulder.
"Don't be so impatient. Don't mess around like a kitten washing its face."
Li Qingcha didn't want to rush.
only……
She shook her head and wiped her face with a towel.
"Let's go."
"Ah?" Gong Lianxue was surprised. "I still have some trivial matters to explain to Piaoxue."
"Then go quickly."
"Ah this... okay, okay, I'll listen to you."
The girl pushed open the door of Tingyun Tower.
As a result, as soon as she stepped over the threshold, she bumped into the flying catkins outside.
Feixu rubbed her chest and said, "Master Li, a palace servant outside sent a message saying that there might be..."
Li Qingcha interrupted: "Just say I'm not here."
"what?"
"What does a poem say, 'I won't board the ship when the emperor calls me, I call myself a fairy in wine'?"
Flying catkins are in deep thought,
This one does look like it was made by someone else.
Yicui Tower is not a pleasure boat, so how can it be called a boat?
However, the meaning is similar to that of "I can bear to exchange my fame for a quiet drink and a song". I think it was written by a scholar like Mr. Li, who did not aspire to be a high official.
Feixu was moved by this high pressure and said, "I'll go right away."
She walked away quickly.
Unexpectedly, just a few minutes later, when Li Qingcha had just hung up his bag, Feixu came back.
"Who is it this time?" Li Qingcha asked.
"Captain Zhao."
"Tsk..."
"He said, 'Please do me a favor, Mr. Li,' and he was very humble."
It's a bit difficult...
Li Qingcha was depressed.
I have a good relationship with Captain Zhao and Feng Weiqi, and it would be hard to refuse if they appeal to my emotions.
She gritted her teeth.
"Just say I'm not here."
"You're still not here?" Fei Xu looked at Li Qingcha curiously. "Well, I'll say you've already gone out. If they ask if you've left Beijing, I'll say I don't know, maybe you just had breakfast outside and will be back soon."
No wonder they say the prettier the woman, the more likely she is to lie.
What's more, she was born in a brothel.
Fei Xu's words were just giving the other party a false hope. If he had waited for just a quarter of an hour longer, Li Qingcha would have already slipped away through the side door.
Li Qingcha gave Feixu a thumbs up.
Feixu smiled sweetly, turned around and left Tingyun Tower.
Gong Lianxue, who was standing by, was surprised.
"Stupid Senior Brother, were you just... were you suddenly in a hurry to leave just now because you knew that there would be trouble?"
Li Qingcha could not help but be stunned.
Only then did she realize that she had behaved very strangely because she was the first to know the news in the chat group.
"A premonition." She could only use vague concepts to prevaricate.
Gong Lianxue raised her eyebrows.
However, she knew her limits and did not ask any further questions.
There are some things that senior brother is unwilling to talk about, and if he asks too much, he will just become annoying.
The girl said, "Forget it. I'll just say a few words to Piaoxue and then we'll get out of here."
The two men separated, packed their things, and met at a side door.
Next it was time to leave the city.
Gong Lianxue introduced to Li Qingcha: "Ever since the Moon Sect retreated from the world, it has been hiding in Mirror Lake. To outsiders, it sounds like a lake, but it is actually an area that includes many islands in the middle of the lake, as well as painted boats, Kuai Pavilion, Sanshan, Qingshui Gate..."
Li Qingcha nodded.
"It looks like a water fortress, I understand..."
The voice has not fallen,
I saw a group of cavalrymen coming from the front, led by a eunuch wearing a black robe.
He reined in his horse in front of the two men and said in a controlled tone, "Li Qingcha, there is a message from the Emperor. Why don't you accept it?"
Chapter 83 Officials and Clerks
The sky was covered with dark clouds and occasional raindrops fell.
Gong Lianxue stole a glance at Li Qingcha.
result,
"Common people, accept the order."
Gong Lianxue:  ̄□ ̄||
What about the promise that "I will not board the ship even if the emperor calls me"? What about the promise that "I will not trade my fame for a quiet drink and a song"?
Just kneel down like that?
At least be a little reserved!
Li Qingcha also wanted to be reserved.
However, since you have traveled through time, you must follow the rules of the game.
In feudal dynasties, imperial power was still very terrifying.
The chief eunuch helped Li Qingcha up and said, "Mr. Li, please don't kneel. It's just a few words of instruction. There's no need to be so formal. Just stand up and receive the order."
Li Qingcha stood up.
"You tell me."
"Check, the instructor of the Young Phoenix Camp, Li Qingcha, is a man of noble character, cautious and prudent, a pure and beautiful man. Now there is a suspicious case, send him out immediately."
"I accept your order and thank you."
"In an emergency, we must make decisions based on our situation. Mr. Li has taken the dragon pendant and you can leave immediately."
The eunuch took out a jade pendant from his sleeve.
The jade pendant was gorgeous in shape, carved with a fire dragon holding a pearl, and it was obviously an imperial item. However, compared with the phoenix-patterned jade pendant given by the Egret Academy, it lacked the effect of calming and concentrating the qi.
Li Qingcha took it with both hands.
"In the morgue?"
A mortuary is a charity cemetery or a morgue.
The chief eunuch thought that Li Qingcha really didn't know. It seemed that Princess Sirou didn't tell anyone about it. After returning, he could report to the emperor.
"No one is dead," he said, "or rather, not yet dead."
not dead?
What about the "killing officials" that No. 1 mentioned?
He didn't want to reveal his identity and said it wrong on purpose?
Or is it that he has a very low status and really doesn't know the whole story, so he just believes everything he hears?
Li Qingcha placed the two options on the scale in his mind and weighed them repeatedly.
Seeing that she was silent, the chief eunuch whispered, "Go to the Ministry of Justice first. He is already there. You will know when you get there."
After saying this, he looked at the sky.
"Mr. Li, would you like me to prepare an umbrella for you?"
Li Qingcha shook his head and said, "Forget it. Time is running out. We'll get wet anyway if we rush to the Ministry of Justice."
What's more, she is a monk and is not prone to illness.
The chief eunuch didn't say any more nonsense and gave up two horses, obviously agreeing that Gong Lianxue could serve as Li Qingcha's follower.
Li Qingcha mounted his horse.
This was her first time riding in "reality" and it felt no different from in the game.
The two of them went straight to the Ministry of Justice.
Ministry of Personnel, Ministry of Revenue, Ministry of Rites, Ministry of War, Ministry of Punishment, Ministry of Works,
