"Farewell to the prince!" The prince's servant Hou Cheng stood at the door of the prince's palace and bowed deeply to Li Xuan.
"Hurry up, Hou Ling, please get up!" Li Xuan quickly helped Hou Cheng up. Now, Hou Cheng's temples have turned white in a few days, and the aging look on his face is extremely obvious.
Ever since the prince's order, Yanzhuang, and the prince's order, Li Yan, had happened one after another, Hou Cheng had been supporting almost the entire crown prince's uterus.
Yanzhuang is now under "house arrest", while Li Yan is resting at home, and all the affairs are placed on Hou Cheng alone.
Although the people from Prince Yong's Mansion have entered the Crown Prince's Palace, Hou Cheng is still nominally the top handler of internal and external affairs in the Crown Prince's Palace.
That is to say, the matter between Yan Zhuang and Li Yan was settled not long ago, otherwise Hou Cheng himself would be burdened with a lot of suspicion.
"Hou Ling, please don't work too hard. You should let go of what you should let go of." Li Xuan said with concern. Hou Cheng's face was full of bitterness. There are some things that can only be let go if you let go. He nodded silently, and then said: "There is something I need to remind Hou Ling. There are too many people around the Crown Princess these days."
As soon as Li Xuan said this, Hou Cheng couldn't help but be startled, but then his face darkened: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I know how to do it."
"It's best to keep only the servants in the palace who are honest and responsible. Those who have too many thoughts should be sent back to the Ministry of Internal Affairs." How could Li Xuan not understand the message that the Crown Princess asked Pei Shitong to convey.
There are some things that it is not easy for the Crown Princess to say now.
After all, those people are old people who have been in the uterus for many years. They can be forgiven for feeling frightened now.
However, the Crown Princess can only intervene in what is happening now. Even she herself has to prepare to become a monk and become a Taoist priest in advance, and she has no control over other people.
"Xiao Wang has other things to do today. I'll see you tomorrow, Hou Ling." Li Xuan saluted Hou Cheng.
Hou Chengneng, Yan Zhuang and Li Yan became the confidants of Prince Li Hong, and their background and abilities were not simple.
"My lord, go slowly!" Hou Cheng said goodbye respectfully again.
After the death of Prince Li Hong, Li Xuan spoke for the Prince again and again, and everyone in the Prince's womb kept it in mind.
Li Xuan got on the black carriage again and whispered to Li Zhu: "Go to Dali Temple!"
"Here!" Li Zhu responded, then slowly rode towards Dali Temple.
Sitting in the carriage, Li Xuan sighed in her heart.
Prince Li Hong died of illness, but the most dangerous person was actually Princess Pei.
Li Zhi and Wu Zhao may not be willing to see her, their former daughter-in-law, hanging around all the time, and it is impossible for her to marry outside.
It is the best choice to become a monk and enter Taoism, or to escape into Buddhism.
If something unexpected happens, it will immediately lead to "over-worry".
The little girl Pei Shitong may not have fully understood the risks involved, but she could also feel that something was wrong, so she came to look for Li Xuan.
Li Xuan couldn't go to Li Xian, let alone Huangfu Zhengyi, so she could only ask Hou Cheng.
Forget it, it's all a trivial matter.
The Qianyang Palace and the Zhenguan Palace are always paying attention to the affairs of the Tai Palace, so it is not his turn to worry about it.
The carriage stopped suddenly, and then a figure opened the door curtain from outside and sat in.
"Brother He!" Li Xuan looked at He Yuqiu with a relaxed expression and asked with some surprise: "I wonder what kind of happy event has happened to make Brother He so happy!"
"It's not a happy event, but one thing is settled. His Majesty has just issued an order to transfer Duke Huang, the governor of the capital, to the post of Shaoqing of Dali Temple. I finally let go of my anxiety." He Yiqiu leaned slightly against the wall of the car, looking calm and relaxed. .
The Du Shui Supervisor, also known as the Du Shui Envoy, is in charge of rivers, canals, boats, irrigation, water transportation and other matters in the world. He is on the fifth rank.
"I see, then congratulations to Brother He!" Li Xuan thought about it for a moment and understood the reason.
The emperor once said before that the recommendation of the young minister of Dali Temple was handed over to Zhang Wenguan, the minister of Dali Temple.
Dali Temple Zheng Qinyu, He Yiqiu and others all saw the opportunity.
However, after a battle, Qin Yu was sent to Bianzhou, and although He Yiqiu won, he had little credit.
"Brother Yu should have thought long ago that I would not be waiting for the position of Young Minister. Unfortunately, like Qin Sizheng, we were blinded by greed." He Yiqiu shook his head in amusement.
The Shaoqing of Dali Temple is an official of the fourth rank, and although the Dali Temple is all under the Shaoqing, it is an official position of the fifth rank. The gap is so big.
Although it is true that some people have been promoted from Zhengchao of Dali Temple to Shaoqing of Dali Temple before, but they are all people with special merits, so it is their turn.
The most important thing is that this edict was issued by the emperor to Zhang Wenguan, the minister of Dali Temple.
Zhang Wenguan only hinted a few words between Qin Yu and He Yiqiu, without any explicit instructions, but just this slight push forced the two of them to risk their lives, and the result...
"But, Brother He, why is the Du Shui Supervisor Huang Gong? The Du Shui Supervisor and Dali Temple are not involved in each other, right?" Li Xuan tapped her knees lightly and thought carefully.
"It is said that it has something to do with Huang Gong's proper handling of water affairs in recent years." He Yiqiu didn't know the inside story and could only guess at random.
"Maybe, Mr. Huang has been in the position of Du Shui Supervisor for seven years... Yes, maybe it has something to do with his mission to Tibet." Li Xuan waved her hand and said, "By the way, Qin Yu is leaving. Well, there is a vacant seat in the main seat of Dali Temple, who will fill it?"
"Fill one up from the Dali Temple Prime Minister below." The corners of He Yiqiu's mouth curved slightly. It seemed that this Dali Temple Prime Minister had a good relationship with him. After a slight pause, He Yiqiu continued: "But the vacant Dali Temple Prime Minister is said to be wanted. Selection from outside prefectures and counties, this matter was handled by Zhang Weng personally.".z.br>
Dali Temple Minister, Shaoqing, Dali Temple Chief, Cheng, Sizhi, Chief Secretary, Judge, the following ones are still promoted one level at a time, but the higher you go to the front, the more difficult it is to promote.
"Okay, let's not talk about Brother Yu. This is what you want." As he spoke, He Yuqiu took out a roll of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan took it and unfolded it. A series of names and cases were written in small characters on it, as well as the results of the disposal and the internal review of Dali Temple.
Although Dali Temple is not affiliated with the Ministry of Punishment, those who can go to Dali Temple from the Ministry of Punishment are basically involved in the trial of criminal cases.
"Here, in the past ten years, all the case briefings that happened in Wuzhou and were sent to Dali Temple are here. For more details, I'm afraid you have to read the files." He Yiqiu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "That's it, that's it. I have to ask Zhang Weng."
"That's good. At least I can know who the real local snake is in Wuzhou." After a pause, Li Xuan's face turned cold: "It's hard for a strong dragon to defeat the local snake, so I have to go and pay a visit first."
Li Xuan always has the habit of being prepared before acting, so that everything goes smoothly and everything goes smoothly.
During this period, he had secret contacts with the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Household Affairs through connections, and learned about some local conditions.
Peng Wang Li Yuanze was appointed as the governor of Wuzhou many years ago, and everything has changed. Although there are still some connections in the government, they are only a glimpse of the leopard. It is difficult to get a full picture, and it is far less useful than the details obtained from the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Officials and wealthy families are all at your fingertips.
Relatively speaking, some things in Dali Temple are more direct.
If you don't move, it's enough. If you move, it's fatal.
"Let's talk about Wuzhou. I'm going to visit Yang Weng this time. I hope the gunpowder matter can be settled." He Yiqiu finally got down to business.
Li Xuan and He Yuqiu are now heading to the general's prison to visit the general's master craftsman Yang Wulian.
I hope to hear the voice of the general prisoner regarding the gunpowder matter.
Although the matter of gunpowder involves Weiwei Temple, the Shaofu Jian and the General Supervisor, only the General Supervisor can produce such powerful gunpowder in small quantities.
Li Xuan sent people to visit Yang Wulian several times before, but there was no response, but now that everything is about to settle, he is suddenly free.
The general will be the supervisor on the south side of Dali Temple, southeast of Chengfu Gate, which is the southeastern corner of the entire palace.
Unlike the gloomy and deserted Qianniu Prison, the general can hear a burst of noise from a distance.
Li Xuan got off the carriage and saw black smoke rising from the General's compound at a glance: "Has the General moved all his workshops to the palace?"
"Luo City is much smaller than Chang'an. Most of the workshops that will serve as supervisors are outside the city. Those remaining in the imperial city are basically important core workshops and cannot be moved outside the city." He shrugged indifferently. This was not his first time here and he was already very accustomed to the situation here.
"Okay!" Li Xuan calmed down and walked into the prison with He Yiqiu.
After asking someone for a while, they found out that Yang Wulian was in a side courtyard, so Li Xuan and He Yiqiu hurried over.
There was strangely no one at the entrance of the courtyard, so Li Xuan didn't pay attention and walked in.
Then the next moment, a mechanical voice sounded: "Please give alms."
