Chapter 348 My Father Li Xuanjing

Daxia.

Lanzhou.

Lanzhou is more than 2,000 miles away from Chang'an. Although it is far away from the political center, the bloody storm in Chang'an is difficult to blow here.

In the past few years, local officials in Lanzhou tried their best to move to Chang'an.

But in recent years, the situation has gradually reversed. Even if they received a transfer order from Chang'an, they would refuse it in every possible way, think of all kinds of reasons, and even bribe the officials in charge of the assessment, and take the initiative to ask for a lower assessment result, in order to stay in the local official position.

In the past six months, some dignitaries in Chang'an have also moved to Lanzhou one after another.

For officials and dignitaries in Daxia, the capital Chang'an has become a den of dragons and tigers.

As the sky gradually darkened, a young man and woman walked into Lanzhou City hand in hand.

The two carried bags on their backs and looked like a couple passing by.

Among them, the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. Even the guards guarding the city couldn't help but look at them a few more times.

After Li Nuo parted with Yiren and the empress, he rushed all the way and finally arrived at Lanzhou City before dark.

The two planned to rest in the city for one night and continue their journey tomorrow morning.

As soon as they entered the city gate, a group of beggars surrounded them and held out dirty broken bowls.

"Please be kind and give me something to eat!"

"I haven't eaten for three days. Which kind-hearted person can have pity on me..."

"If there are leftovers, please give me some..."

...

As an official of Daxia, Li Nuo couldn't help but feel a little touched when he saw this scene.

Although Chang'an is rich, isn't it Daxia outside of Chang'an?

The court officials are in high positions, and how many of them really know the suffering of the people.

He bought all the leftover steamed buns from a steamed bun shop on the street and distributed them to these beggars, and then found an inn with Yiren to stay.

Sitting in the room of the inn, Li Nuo felt a little complicated.

It seems that under the influence of the righteousness in his body, when he saw these people of Daxia reduced to beggars, he felt a kind of compassion in his heart, and an urgent desire to change all this.

Cultivate oneself, manage the family, govern the country, and pacify the world. What the book said was indeed correct. After Confucianism entered the country, even if it was not their subjective will, there would be a mysterious force that pushed them to do these things.

Because of this, Confucianism is the most respected in any country.

They had to travel the next day, so they went to bed early.

He slept very soundly this time, and did not dream the whole night.

After getting up and washing, the two continued their journey.

At their speed, including the rest time at night, it would take at most three days from Lanzhou to Chang'an.

Li Nuo checked out of the room downstairs and walked out of the inn.

When walking towards the city gate, the two stopped at the same time, and glanced in a certain direction behind them.

Someone was secretly spying.

However, Li Nuo did not feel the slightest threat from the other party.

He ignored them for the time being, and the two walked forward for a distance, and the road ahead was suddenly blocked.

Several sturdy figures blocked their way.

The leading sturdy man whispered: "Go to the alley over there, or I'll kill you!"

There was an alley beside the two.

The passers-by saw this scene and took a detour to avoid it.

Not far away, two patrolling constables saw them, but they turned around and continued to patrol in the direction they came from as if they didn't see them.

Song Yiren wanted to draw her sword, but Li Nuo held it.

Li Nuo walked into the alley as the sturdy man said. After the sturdy man followed him in, he pointed at the bag behind Li Nuo and said: "Hand over the valuables yourself, don't force us to do it..."

Li Nuo knew that Waizhou would definitely be a little more chaotic than Chang'an, but he didn't expect it to be so chaotic.

In broad daylight, they robbed people in the street without telling anyone. Even the constables responsible for maintaining public order turned a blind eye to what they saw. It can be seen how chaotic Lanzhou has become.

"Uncle, your mother's head is bigger!"

During the time when Song Yiren just came down from the mountain, she traveled alone and encountered many such things.

Seeing the arrogant look of these people, she finally couldn't help but take action.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Only a few muffled sounds were heard, and several figures flew out of the alley.

Two constables were leaning against the wall on the corner of the street to watch the excitement. They should be able to get a lot of money from these two fat sheep from other places, and naturally they will also get their benefits.

But soon, they found something wrong.

Lying on the ground wailing, unable to even get up, it turned out to be those guys.

The two looked at each other, and one of them ran forward quickly and asked, "What happened!"

The strong men never expected that the young woman's skills were so amazing. She might have already reached the realm of true energy. The leading man covered his chest and said painfully, "He, they wanted to rob our silver. We didn't give it to her, and she actually did it!"

The constable looked at Li Nuo and Yi Ren and said in a deep voice, "It's absurd. You dare to rob in the street in broad daylight. Do you have any law in your eyes!"

While speaking, another constable had already arrived with a group of guards.

Without waiting for the leading guard to ask, the first constable said, "In broad daylight, these two people robbed openly. Commander Chen, quickly arrest them!"

At this moment, there were no civilians on this street.

Even the shops on the street closed their doors, and some people only dared to put their ears to the door to eavesdrop.

After hearing the official's words, they couldn't help but mourn for the couple.

Once these two outsiders are targeted by these people who eat people without spitting out bones, the best outcome is to lose their money. Even their people will probably be in danger.

The guard looked at Li Nuo and Song Yiren and asked, "Is what he said true?"

Song Yiren pointed at the few strong men on the ground and said angrily: "Which one is more like a prisoner, us or them, can't you see for yourself?"

The young guard snorted and said, "I think you are more similar. Otherwise, how could it be them lying on the ground?"

The strong man leader then said: "Yes, yes, the burden they carry is to rob us!"

Song Yiren looked at this scene and finally understood, and said angrily: "I know, you are all in the same group!"

The young guard said coldly: "The evil man dares to complain first, take him away!"

Li Nuo's face was already ugly.

This is no longer just a collusion between officials and bandits, but a collusion between officers, bandits and soldiers. The level of darkness is simply outrageous!

A group of guards were about to step forward and take the two men down, when suddenly their legs trembled and they knelt straight down.

The young guard and the two detectives felt a huge pressure, causing them to kneel down uncontrollably. They tried to struggle up, but they couldn't even lift their heads.

"Bastard thing!"

Li Nuo sat at a tea stall on the roadside, untied a policeman and a guard, and said coldly: "Let your superior come over!"

The two of them rolled away and crawled away.

Li Nuo sat there for a quarter of an hour when the ground beneath his feet suddenly trembled slightly, and the tea bowls on the tea stall made a jingling sound under the influence of the vibration.

Li Nuo and Song Yiren looked up and saw a black line at the end of the street ahead.

That's not a black line, but a black armor.

Nearly a hundred soldiers wearing armor appeared on the street.

The vibrations on the ground were caused by their running pace.

As they got closer and closer, a chilling aura came towards them.

This aura was no stranger to Li Nuo.

This is the atmosphere of a military strategist.

All schools of thought have their own strengths. Legalists are known for their individual strength, while military strategists are best at utilizing collective strength.

The strength of a single soldier is limited, but if hundreds or thousands of people form a military formation, the power they can exert is extremely terrifying.

When the army passes by, the sixth realm also has to retreat.

The aura of each of these nearly a hundred soldiers was only in the second or third realm, and the leader, a middle-aged general, was only in the fourth realm.

But when they formed a military formation, their overall aura made Li Nuo, who was in the fifth realm, feel a strong sense of pressure.

The middle-aged general walked behind the kneeling people, felt the power exerted on them, his face changed slightly, and he blurted out: "Legalist!"

He not only felt the power of Legalism, but also the power of Legalism in the fifth realm.

As far as he knew, there was only one Legalist in the fifth realm of Daxia, and that was the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.

But the source of this power, the young man sitting there, obviously cannot be a third-rank official in the current dynasty.

Li Nuo released the restraints of these people, and the pressure on his body suddenly disappeared. The young guard got up from the ground. When he saw the middle-aged man, he seemed to have seen a savior. He pointed at Li Nuo and said, "General, This man robbed in the street and dared to resist arrest. Get him quickly!”

"Steal your mother!"

As soon as he got up, he was kicked to the ground by a middle-aged man.

The Legalists in the Fifth Realm robbed people on the street. How could a person say such a thing?

While the young guard was lying on the ground, and before he could figure out the situation, the middle-aged general quickly walked up to Li Nuo, clasped his fists, and asked, "May I ask who your Majesty is..."

Li Nuo said: "Li Nuo, the doctor of the Ministry of Justice."

The middle-aged general's heart was slightly moved. He was indeed a member of the Punishment Department. He was just a doctor in the Punishment Department, but he actually had a cultivation level in the fifth realm of Legalism...

As for the name Li Nuo, he did sound familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before.

Li Nuo looked at the other person's confused face, trying to think hard, sighed softly, and said again: "My father, Li Xuanjing."

The middle-aged general's body trembled, his expression immediately became a little solemn, and he said: "It turns out that he is the son of the Minister of Dali Temple, disrespectful and disrespectful!"

Li Nuo was speechless. After all, he was also the top scorer in six subjects. Is the top scorer in six subjects so unknown?

Plop!

Li Nuo's words "Father Li Xuanjing" caused a man in official uniform who had just arrived to lose his legs and almost kneel on the ground.

He was the magistrate of Lan County. He had just heard from a police officer that someone had robbed someone in the street and injured a guard patrolling the city. He personally led a group of government officials here and heard this as soon as he arrived.

The policeman walked in front, pointed at Li Nuo, and said, "Sir, that's him!"

"It's your mother!"

The magistrate of Lan County slapped him down. The court wanted to transfer him to Chang'an and give him a promotion. Why did he refuse on the grounds of supporting his mother?

Aren't you just afraid of being killed by Li Xuanjing?

This bastard actually recruited his ancestor directly!

He strode forward, clasped his fists at Li Nuo and said, "The magistrate of Xiaguanlan County has met Mr. Li!"

Li Nuo looked at the two of them and said calmly: "One of you is a good parent officer, and the other is a good soldier..."

…

Lan County County Government.

The magistrate of Lan County stood in front of Li Nuo, his face was pale, and he kept saying: "This is because the subordinates are negligent in management. Please rest assured, sir, they will be strictly restrained after they are dismissed. The two detectives involved will be dismissed immediately and investigated..."

The middle-aged general's temper became even more violent. He punched and kicked the young guard and said angrily: "I asked you to join the army to protect the people. You bastard, you actually colluded with the bandits and oppressed the people..."

Li Nuo looked at the two of them and said, "I hope you will keep your word. After returning to Chang'an, I will see the files on this case in the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of War."

The magistrate of Lan County nodded and said: "Definitely, definitely!"

The middle-aged general also said: "After returning to camp, I will deal with him in accordance with military law..."

Handling cases requires formal procedures, and Li Nuo cannot deal with them on the spot.

The magistrate of Lan County wiped his sweat and said: "Master Li, I have already arranged a banquet in the restaurant..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Nuo waved his hand and said, "No need, I am on my way in a hurry. Remember what you said, otherwise, the next time someone comes to Lanzhou, they will not just investigate this case... …”

The magistrate of Lan County was shocked and said repeatedly: "The lower official knows, the lower official knows!"

After personally sending them away from the county government office, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, then his face darkened, he looked at the police officers standing in the yard, and said angrily: "Be honest, who else among you is doing this in private?" Such a thing!”

…

The gate of Lanzhou City.

Li Nuo and Yi Ren walked out side by side. Although they were delayed for less than half an hour, Li Nuo realized one thing.

Chang'an's cultivation resources have been emptied by his father.

However, the situation in these local capitals was more serious than that in Chang'an. He already had some ideas about the next level of practice.

These are things to consider later, for now, the most important thing is getting home.

Li Nuo held Yi Ren's hand and said, "Let's go."

Somewhere away from the official road, above the ground, Li Nuo took a step forward, and his figure appeared dozens of feet away, several feet above the ground. The beautiful woman walked in the air, and her body drew an afterimage in the void...

Half an hour later.

A figure came quickly and hovered in the void.

The man in black closed his eyes and felt a trace of true energy remaining around him.

He looked forward, with a smile on his face, and said, "I found you..."

The next moment, his body turned into a black stream of light, chasing in the direction where the two disappeared.

Bang!

But he only moved a hundred feet forward when a muffled sound suddenly came from the void.

The figure of the man in black appeared from the void again.

He touched his forehead. The collision just now made even him feel his mind buzzing.

But the void ahead was clearly empty.

What had he hit?

He stretched out his hand and touched an invisible barrier.

As if sensing something, he suddenly turned his head and looked down.

A figure was sitting quietly by a stream below, holding a fishing rod, and a small fish happened to be hooked.

He took the small fish off the hook and put it in the fish basket.

There were already many small fish in the fish basket. It was obvious that he had been fishing here for a long time.

The man put down his fishing rod, turned to look at the man in black, and asked calmly: "Friend, where are you going?"

[PS: I have caught a cold in the past two days and am not in good condition. My fingers are hurting for some reason. I can only use two fingers to code words. I just finished writing a big plot and connected to the new plot. The negative buffs are full, so I will keep it short for now... …]
