After Pei Wenxuan finished speaking, he and Li Rong turned around with a smile. Shangguan Xu came to Li Rong and bowed to Li Rong without looking at Pei Wenxuan. ?"

"Uncle is polite."

Li Rong laughed, turned around and said with Pei Wenxuan, "You wait for me at the gate of the palace first."

Pei Wenxuan cupped his hands in response, saluted Shangguan Xu, and then left first. Li Rong turned around and looked at Shang Guanxu: "Is my uncle going back to the manor or the official office?"

"The old minister intends to return to the palace, is His Highness going to leave the palace?"

"Yes."

"Let's go together then."

Shangguan Xu raised his hand and asked Li Rong to go out with him.

The two walked out together. Li Rong held a folding fan in hand, and after walking out of the hall with Shangguan Xu, she heard Shangguan Xu's slow voice: "Why did Your Highness suddenly think of taking care of Qin's affairs this time?"

"Didn't you already say it?" Li Rong said slowly, "Miss Qin found me, and I can't bear to see Qin's injustice."

"His Royal Highness is already married," Shangguan Xu sighed, "Why bother with so much?"

"Uncle..." Li Rong turned around hesitantly, "Do you mean to let me leave it alone?"

"This incident in the Northwest," Shangguan Xu and Li Rong walked down the steps together, "was originally a mess that Your Majesty handed over to the Crown Prince. The old minister was worried about His Highness, so he contacted a few relatives and tried his best to stabilize the Northwest. Great victory. Before, His Majesty temporarily changed generals and forced Xiao Su to become the main general. Xiao Su reported to His Majesty the list of reward recipients.

Li Rong bowed her head slightly: "I would like to hear the details."

"Most of these lists are from the Han family. This time, the children of the aristocratic family have basically not received awards. That's why the court argues. His Highness wants to seek justice for the Qin family. Xiang Li Rong looked a bit oppressive, "I don't know, Your Highness, how are you going to give it?"

Li Rong quietly listened to Shangguan Xu's words, and for a moment, she seemed to realize the heart of Li Chuan in the previous life when he first ascended the throne.

If you want to manage them, these people are not only relatives, but also benefactors.

Regardless of them, they are reckless.

Li Rong was silent, and after a long time, she said slowly, "Then the Qin family, are they guilty?"

Shangguan Xu did not speak, the two walked on the square, Li Rong looked up at the palace gate in the distance, and watched the birds fluttering over the high scarlet wall, and said softly: "I know that my uncle loves me and Chuaner, and I am with Chuaner. Son, also remember uncle. The imperial court levies taxes and exempts the family from taxation. Shangguan’s family is in Youzhou and owns nearly half of the land. Taxes are paid every year, and even many imperial courts are exempted from taxation.” Li Rong laughed, “However, the border is disturbed. When there was a natural disaster, when the two sides of the court could not take care of it, the father wanted to forcibly recruit from the noble family, and it was Chuan’er who thought of his uncle, discussed with His Majesty, and persuaded His Majesty.”

Li Rong's words seemed to be loose, but Shangguan Xu's face turned cold.

The aristocratic family owns tax-free land, and has many privileges. The taxation in the dynasty is not enough, there are few people and money, and the Rong country comes to invade. The aristocratic family hides behind the imperial court, watching the imperial court pay, the imperial court sends the money to the border, and the border is the Yang family. Controlling, the Yang family was afraid of weakening themselves, so they made a ridiculous thing to pay for the enemy country to play.

The Shangguan family supports Li Chuan, and Li Chuan must protect the Shangguan family.

"I really don't know what happened to the northwest frontier during the war. But according to my one-sided understanding, the imperial court is responsible for running everything. Although the Rong country is a small country, it must have a lot of involvement. My uncle is the minister of the provincial government. , is not the father's."

"His Royal Highness has won the prize." Shangguan Xu insisted, Li Rong expressed his understanding, but he understood what he meant in secret.

According to the operating mechanism of the entire imperial court, if the aristocratic family didn't do more blocking in the middle, and attacked the Rong country together, it would not be a big problem. It's just that everyone has their own abacus, so there have always been various problems in the aspects of deciding the challenge, preparing for military pay, allocating, and transporting food and grass. This time, if the Shangguan family had not persuaded various families to promise various benefits, it would not have been so smooth.

Northwest is a mess, and Huajing is also a mess.

But this mess is already rotten in the family, and the Shangguan family came forward to clean it up, which is a credit, but also one of the initiators.

Shangguan Xu pinched the wat board, and the knuckles he pinched turned white.

Li Rong couldn't bear it for a while, and when she came to the palace gate, she suddenly said, "Uncle."

When Shangguan Xu heard this uncle, he raised his head. Li Rong looked at him and said slowly, "When I was a child, my uncle came to the palace and often brought a windmill to Rong'er. Rong'er liked it very much."

Shangguan Xu was a little stunned, Li Rong stared at Shangguan Xu, and said seriously: "Uncle is always Rong'er's family, Rong'er hopes that my family can be well. When the water is full, the moon is full, and the moon is full. The way of the saint, I hope my uncle will keep it in mind.”

Shangguan Xu didn't speak, Li Rong took a deep breath, turned her head and smiled: "I'm going to the palace gate, I won't send Master Shangguan, this palace will go first."

With that said, Li Rong saluted and left first.

When Li Rong was far away, several ministers next to him walked up to Shangguan Xu and said anxiously, "Lord Shangguan, what does Your Highness say?"

Shangguan Xu was silent, and after a long time, he said slowly, "Your Highness has just told me a lot. With her knowledge, she shouldn't be able to say this."

Several people looked at each other, and after a while, Shangguan Minzhi said slowly, "I'm afraid I have to tell Pei Lixian that his child is a little too presumptuous."

"Young man." Shangguan Xu laughed, "still full of energy."

Li Rong bid farewell to Shangguan Xu, and when she walked out of the palace gate, she happened to see Pei Wenxuan standing at the door.

He was waiting for her beside the carriage wearing a black robe with red stripes, and when he saw Li Rong come out, Pei Wenxuan laughed.

Although Pei Wenxuan was full of bad water, he was born handsome and upright. When he laughed, he was like a spring breeze blowing in the green fields in April, and his tenderness was full of vitality.

Seeing his smile, Li Rong felt relieved.

Pei Wenxuan stepped forward and looked at her with a smile: "Do you need a minister to help His Highness?"

"Why ask that?"

Li Rong was a little strange, but Pei Wenxuan stretched out his hand and said, "If Your Highness is tired, just support Wei Chen."

Li Rong looked at him, put her hand on his, and let him get on the carriage.

After entering the carriage, Pei Wenxuan said, "Let's go back first. When we get to the house, His Majesty's imperial decree and token should arrive. Then we will go to the Ministry of Punishment to call up the Qin family's case, and then take a look at the Qin family's situation."

Li Rong responded and returned home with Pei Wenxuan. Not long after waiting in the Princess Mansion, Li Ming asked her to investigate the Qin case, and the imperial decree that no one could stop it arrived. Along with the imperial decree, Li Ming rewarded the special token of the Supervisory Division.

After getting the imperial edict and the token, Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan rushed to the punishment department together. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the punishment department, they were stopped by the people of the punishment department. Li Rongliang showed the token in her hand and said directly: "This palace is here under the edict, look for it. Dossier of Books and History."

The people from the Ministry of Punishment were stunned for a while. It was obvious that they hadn't received the notice yet. Li Rong looked up at them, "Why, are you not believing this palace or the imperial edict?"

"Don't dare," the guard at the gate quickly stepped aside and said with Li Rong, "Please come inside, Your Highness."

It stands to reason that these people should lead Li Rong in to find Shulingshi, but none of them had the intention to lead the way. Fortunately, Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan had already figured out the various departments in the last life, and they were too lazy to argue with them. Stepping in, you will directly arrive at the place where the files are stored.

After arriving at the warehouse where the files were stored, Li Rong asked the officials below to call out the chief. After Li Rong gave the imperial decree, she said directly: "Transfer the files of Qin's case, and this palace will take them away."

Hearing this, the book Lingshi hesitated for a moment, then laughed: "His Royal Highness, it's not that the lower officials are embarrassing you. The Ministry of Punishment has the rules of the Ministry of Punishment. If you need to transfer the file, please ask Your Highness to get the order."

"Order? The imperial decree asks this palace to preside over the case, and the top and bottom must not stop it. With the rank of this palace, do I still need an order?"

"His Royal Highness," Shulingshi smiled bitterly, "this is also a rule. Unless your Majesty comes in person, you will have to give an order. Even if Lord Shang Shu comes, you must follow the rules."

Li Rong didn't speak, she and Pei Wenxuan knew very well that this was a dilemma for the people below.

It's hard for Hell King to find little ghosts. Li Rong has not been so entangled with little ghosts for many years. She couldn't help laughing: "Then who should I ask for these orders?"

"You go to Director Gao and let him know that Director Gao has given an order, and I will immediately hand over the Qin's file to His Royal Highness."

"Then where is Mr. Gao?" Li Rong continued to ask, and Shu Lingshi raised his hand and said, "It should be in the room on the left in front of you. Please move your Highness."

"Okay." Li Rong nodded, "Bengong go and have a look."

After Li Rong finished speaking, she went to find Director Gao with Pei Wenxuan. When they got to Director Gao's room, they saw that the room was empty. Li Rong raised her eyebrows and glanced at the guard at the door: "Where's Director Gao?"

"Master Gao is out on business." The guard said cautiously, "His Royal Highness... Your Highness will come back tomorrow?"

Li Rong didn't speak. She raised her eyes to look at Pei Wenxuan, who looked at the guards and said indifferently, "What are you doing out here, Mr. Gao?"

"This... I don't know what a humble job is."

The guards looked embarrassed, and Pei Wenxuan fell silent. After a long time, Li Rong laughed out loud: "Okay, then this palace will come back another day."

After Li Rong finished speaking, she turned around and led Pei Wenxuan directly out of the punishment department.

After going out, Pei Wenxuan hurriedly said: "Your Highness doesn't need to be angry, the decision was made by the Supervision Division early today, and now the Ministry of Punishment is afraid that there is no news..."

"What news!" Li Rong shouted in a low voice, "Why are these people playing Ben Gong as a monkey? What kind of high-level boss are you looking for? If Su Rongqing is here today, I think he still needs a high-level boss?! It's clearly deceiving you. I'm just ignorant!"

Pei Wenxuan didn't speak. Seeing Li Rong walking out angrily, he followed closely and said in a low voice, "What is Your Highness going to do?"

"How? They bully me when I'm young, and I'll let them know what it means to be young!"

With that said, Li Rong came to the side of the carriage and strode onto the carriage. Seeing her annoyed, Pei Wenxuan quickly grabbed her and said, "Where is Your Highness going?"

"Go find someone! Don't follow me, go to the barracks, and call the ten good guys from the people I saw before, and they'll be there in a while," Li Rong raised her hand and pointed to the restaurant next to her, "I'll wait there. you."

"I'm looking for someone, what about Your Highness?"

"I… "

Before Li Rong finished speaking, she heard Shangguanya's somewhat happy voice: "Ah, Your Highness," Shangguanya waved not far away, "What a coincidence!"
