Madam, protect me!

Chapter 317: Secret Observation

Ever since the Yin-Yang family said that Yiren would break through to the Grandmaster level this year, she has been practicing more diligently.

She was still practicing before Li Nuo went to bed yesterday.

When he woke up in the morning, she had already gotten up and started a new day of practice.

In most cases, after a warrior reaches the peak of the fourth level, it takes several years, or even longer, before he can hope to advance to the Grandmaster level.

Li Nuo sometimes thinks that if the old man had not told her that she would advance to the Grandmaster level this year, she might not have worked so hard.

And because she had a strong expectation in her heart and began to practice harder, she would advance to the Grandmaster level earlier.

I am afraid that the Yin-Yang family themselves cannot explain the relationship between them.

Yin-Yang magic has been born for hundreds of years, but many things are not finalized within them.

At noon, the Sixth Princess came to the courtyard.

Zhao Zhiyi greeted Song Yiren who was practicing, then walked into the room and asked Li Nuo, "Is Lord Li free today?"

Li Nuo said, "Except for going to the academy for class in the afternoon, there is nothing to do."

Zhao Zhiyi said, "It's like this. The files sent by various states last year have not been reviewed by the Ministry of Justice. I know Lord Li is good at solving cases. I wonder if Lord Li can help the Ministry of Justice to review them?"

Li Nuo smiled and said, "Of course."

Generally speaking, the Ministry of Justice will review the local files by the end of the year. She should have deliberately kept last year's files until now.

Although the Sixth Princess asked for help, there is no doubt that she was doing a favor in a tactful way.

It's comfortable to get along with such a smart person.

The Ministry of Justice is not far from here. Seeing that Yiren was very active in practicing, Li Nuo did not let her accompany her, but went with the Sixth Princess.

On the way to the Ministry of Justice, Li Nuo remembered something and looked at the Sixth Princess beside him and asked, "Your Highness, did that Yin-Yang family tell me how I should help the Fourth Prince?"

Zhao Zhiyi shook his head and said, "Master Gongsun just said that as long as he can find you, everything is God's will."

It's either fate or God's will...

The Yin-Yang family is a group of riddlers.

Li Nuo himself didn't know what he should do, but since she said so, let's leave everything to God's will.

Zhao Zhiyi thought for a while and said, "According to past practices, helping the emperor to establish a lot of political achievements is one aspect, and the more important point is to gain the support of some important officials in the court..."

Generally speaking, which prince has more outstanding political achievements means that they are more capable, better at using people, and more suitable to inherit the throne.

But the fact is that the support of court officials is more important than political achievements.

Those important officials who really have the right to speak will not easily stand in line.

Even the princes who have been operating in Zhao for many years find it difficult to recruit one, let alone him, an envoy from another country who has just arrived in Zhao for a few days.

When they were about to reach the Ministry of Justice, Li Nuo suddenly looked back.

Zhao Zhiyi looked back, found nothing, and asked, "What's wrong?"

People were coming and going on the street, Li Nuo looked a few more times, then shook his head and said, "Nothing."

Just after the two entered the Ministry of Justice, in a teahouse on the street opposite the Ministry of Justice, the fortune-teller looked at the skinny old man and asked, "How is it?"

The skinny old man said lightly, "This man has nearly 30 years to live."

The fortune-teller glanced at him. He now has nearly 30 years to live, but a few days ago, it was only 15 years, and a year and a half ago, it was only half a year.

Not only that, his life span is sometimes more and sometimes less, and each calculation is different, which is enough to show that fate is full of changes.

But if the other party does not see it with his own eyes, this old stubborn will not believe it.

He sat on the chair and said slowly, "Don't worry, wait for him to come out of the Ministry of Justice and calculate it again."

According to his observation, every time he comes out of the Ministry of Justice, his life span must change.

Although his expression was calm, he was also muttering in his heart at this moment.

He just calculated the cultivation of Li Nuo.

But his future, like that of the woman, was also blank.

It couldn't be that he would become a Dharma Saint in the future, right?

Out of curiosity, he calculated the Princess of Zhao State beside Li Nuo.

The strange thing was that he couldn't calculate her lifespan, and even her cultivation.

He was a Yin-Yang master in the sixth realm, and he couldn't calculate the future cultivation of an ordinary person. If he told others, he would become a joke in the Yin-Yang world.

He didn't dare to tell the old man around him about this.

If the other party could calculate it, wouldn't it make him look incompetent?

However, this also made him dispel his previous view.

Not being able to calculate the cultivation doesn't mean that the other party is in the seventh realm.

It can't be that all three of them will be in the seventh realm in the future, right?

That's a saint, not a cabbage.

It seems that the problem lies with himself.

Many of the ancestors of the Dongfang family began to doubt the Yin-Yang technique itself after reaching the sixth realm, and eventually died of madness. He felt that he might soon die, and might really be ahead of the old man of the Nangong family...

Ministry of Justice.

Li Nuo and the Sixth Princess walked into the courtyard of the Ministry of Justice and saw many figures standing outside the court.

Inside the court, the sound of the gavel came, and the case should be being tried.

When the two passed by this group of people and were about to enter a government office, Li Nuo looked back and said to Zhao Zhiyi beside him: "The murderer is the tall man standing in the corridor on the right, and the woman with the biggest breasts in the crowd is his accomplice..."

Zhao Zhiyi looked back and opened her red lips slightly.

He didn't even know what case it was, but he could tell the murderer by just passing by?

This scene shocked her even more than the time he solved the case at the Daxia Embassy.

After entering the yamen, she said to Li Nuo: "Master Li, wait a moment, I'll be back soon."

Li Nuo waited for more than a quarter of an hour, and Zhao Zhiyi entered the yamen again.

She looked at Li Nuo with shock and confusion.

After his reminder, she asked the people from the Ministry of Justice to take the two people down immediately and interrogate them separately.

The two were still quibbling at first, but the criminal police were experienced in interrogation and soon opened a breakthrough from the woman. She admitted on the spot that she had colluded with her lover to murder her husband in order to seize the family property and put the blame on the thieves who broke into the house...

She looked at Li Nuo, moved her lips, and asked: "How did Lord Li know that the murderer was them?"

Li Nuo said: "After investigating many cases, I naturally have a hunch about the murderer. The first time I saw them, I felt that they were not right."

Zhao Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I finally know why they asked Lord Li to go to the embassy to solve the case..."

Witnessing this shocking scene with her own eyes, her eyes suddenly lit up and said: "The Criminal Ministry and the Dali Temple have accumulated a lot of old cases that have not been solved. I wonder if Lord Li has the confidence to solve them?"

If these old cases can be solved, it will undoubtedly be another brilliant political achievement.

Li Nuo nodded and said, "You can try."

Although the old case was too old and could no longer automatically sense the murderer, he could still do it manually.

Unless it was a case that had no clues at all, as long as there was a reasonable suspect, the old case could still be solved.

When he was in Daxia, he actually thought about old cases.

But there were very few old cases in the Criminal Department of Daxia, and they were all those without any clues. The rest of the cases were solved by the Dali Temple.

Before doing this, the files of the Criminal Department must be processed first.

The files of the Criminal Department of Zhao were much fewer than those of Daxia.

The incidence of homicide was even less than that of Daxia.

As a minister of Daxia, although these words were a bit treasonous, it was generally recognized that the Emperor of Zhao was a wise monarch who worked hard to govern the country, while the Emperor of Daxia, An Ning's father, was a typical incompetent monarch...

He ignored the government for ten years, abandoned the country and the people, and pursued the illusory immortality. He was really not afraid of the pen of the historian.

Li Nuo finished processing these files in less than half a day.

He distinguished between files with problems and files without problems according to the convention.

After processing the last file, he put down his pen and stretched his body.

Zhao Zhiyi handed over a peeled apple and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Lord Li."

Li Nuo took the apple and said, "You're welcome. I should thank the princess."

In this half day, not only did he increase his cultivation a little, but his life span also increased by more than a hundred days.

Zhao Zhiyi was a princess, and she had been serving tea and water, handing paper and grinding ink by her side, so Li Nuo felt embarrassed.

Not long after, the two walked out of the Ministry of Justice.

In a teahouse opposite the Ministry of Justice, a skinny old man flicked his fingers, stood up from his chair, and frowned, saying, "How could it be..."

In half a day, his life span increased by more than a hundred days.

The fortune-teller looked at him and asked, "What else do you have to say this time?"

The skinny old man sat down slowly again and said, "How do you know? This is not in his destiny. Maybe he encountered some opportunity."

The fortune-teller said, "Why don't you just say that there is a Yin-Yang master in the sixth realm in the Ministry of Justice who just transferred his life to him. What about encountering an opportunity? Do you believe this explanation yourself?"

The skinny old man fell into silence.

There must be a reason for a person's destiny to change, and it is very likely that the Yin-Yang master intervened.

This is the first time he has encountered such a person whose life span has increased so much inexplicably...

This has a great impact on what he has believed in all his life.

He must figure this out.

Otherwise, he will die with regrets.

He looked at the fortune-teller and said, "Lend me a year of life."

The fortune-teller waved his hand and said decisively, "Don't even think about it!"
