Chapter 18 The Results of the Ministry of Justice

After determining the download routine, Han Xu went straight to Han Luoling's courtyard as soon as he got up. ♚♞  ♦♦

The purpose is to not waste any skill points.

The system that Han Xu is bound to downloads the skills at will. The host can only determine whether to download the skills, but cannot allocate skill points independently.

Therefore, in order to prevent the system from downloading other skills and wasting skill points, Han Xu carefully designed a way to Han Luoling's house.

Taking this road, Han Xu had downloaded all the skills that could appear along the way a long time ago.

After arriving at Han Luoling's courtyard, Han Xu stayed there until the five skill points per day were exhausted before leaving.

After running like this for two days, Jinghua Shuiyue finally passed the realm of initial glimpse, and was only ten skill points away from the second level of small success.

Han Xu was estimating whether Jinghua Shuiyue could be promoted to the realm of small success before Han Luoling's wedding, and then he heard Han Luoling's voice.

"Tomorrow is the end-of-year assessment of Jiuxiao Academy. How are you preparing, little Xuxu?"

"Sister, don't you still believe me?" Han Xu felt a little guilty, but after thinking about it, she said, "My grades in the academy have always been extremely stable."

This sentence is the truth, there is nothing wrong with it, so Han Xu said it with confidence.

"It's a pity. I wanted to go and see it, but the rogue has been busy these days, and the Ministry of Rites is watching closely, so my sister can't leave." Han Luoling felt it was a pity that she couldn't see her brother's style.

After hearing this, Han Xu breathed a long sigh of relief. It seems that he can survive for a long time.

"The Minister of Rites wants to see you!"

The brother and sister were chatting, and the servant came to report that Ning Shanzhi was here.

"Let him in." Han Luoling said, and turned around and restrained her smile, and her whole body naturally exuded a coldness that kept people away from her.

Seeing this, Han Xu sighed at the speed of the woman's face change.

Soon, Ning Shanzhi came to the hall, bowed to Han Luoling, presented a secret letter with both hands and said: "Your Highness, the investigation results of the Ministry of Justice are out."

"Really? The efficiency of the Ministry of Justice is very high." Han Luoling said, and there was no emotional ups and downs in her voice.

She took the secret letter from Ning Shanzhi and opened it with Han Xu to read it.

"It turned out that it was done by my father's enemy."

"Really? What a coincidence." Han Xu's tone was clearly unconvinced.

The letter contained the investigation results of the Ministry of Justice. In simple terms, the family members of the enemies that Han Li killed when he conquered the northern border more than 20 years ago came to seek revenge.

And the Ministry of Justice has already caught the murderer red-handed.

Han Xu didn't know whether the Ministry of Justice had found someone to take the blame, or someone else had sent the truth and the murderer to the Ministry of Justice.

Anyway, the meaning of this letter is that the truth of this case has been found out and the case has been closed.

If the Ministry of Justice really found someone to take the blame, it means that the Ministry of Justice is also the sphere of influence of the queen.

The six ministries of the court, namely, the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Works, almost manage all matters within Dawu, and have great power.

From various signs, Han Xu speculated that Ning Shanzhi was on the side of the Queen. If the Ministry of Punishment was added, the Queen's power in the court would be too great.

"Does Mr. Han have any objections?" Ning Shanzhi asked.

"How dare I have any objection? Since the Ministry of Justice has made a decision, let's just leave it at that." Han Xu finished speaking and asked, "What do you think, sister?"

"This is the Ministry of Justice's business. I am very grateful that Lord Ning came here to tell me."

Ning Shanzhi hurriedly said, "No, no, this is what I should do. After all, the assassination of the prince was also due to my lack of consideration."

"The thief had a deliberate plan, and it was not the Ministry of Rites' fault."

"The prince is so young, but he has such a broad mind. I admire him."

"Okay, Lord Ning, if there is nothing else, I want to rest."

After Ning Shanzhi left, Han Xu asked, "Sister, do you believe the result given by the Ministry of Justice?"

"What about you?"

After speaking, Han Luoling smiled and turned around and said, "Eat Let's have dinner before we go. I'll cook for you today. What do you want to eat?"

"It seems like I'm in for a treat today." Han Xu said without thinking, "I want to eat the noodles with soybean sauce made by my sister."

"Okay, I'll prepare it now. I'll be in the palace in a few days. I don't know if I can still make noodles with soybean sauce for you in the future."

Hearing Han Luoling's mumbling to herself, Han Xu's eyes were red. He said firmly: "Sister, I can definitely do it. Even if you enter the palace, you are still my sister. I can come to see you often."

"That's right. I'll talk to Emperor Wu and ask him to allow you to enter the palace often."

Han Xu smiled with his head down. He laughed at Han Luoling's words being a little naive. Emperor Wu was the emperor. How could he break the rules of the palace because of a woman?

However, Han Xu did not want to break Han Luoling's wish, so he said: "With your beauty, the Martial Emperor will be completely conquered by you, and you will definitely do whatever you say."

"That's for sure." Han Luoling said with a smile, finally showing some girlish playfulness.

Soon, Han Luoling made a big bowl of hot noodles with soybean sauce, and Han Xu ate it up in no time, like a hungry tiger.

"Slow down, don't choke."

"Hmm." Han Xu said incoherently, with noodles in his mouth, "Sister's cooking skills are really the best in the world."

"Go back and rest early after eating, you still have to take the test tomorrow, you have to work hard."

"Okay, sister, just prepare for the wedding and don't worry about me." Han Xu said quickly. He didn't want Han Luoling to ask about his situation on a whim.

"Getting married is something worth being happy about. I can't make my sister unhappy because of me." Han Xu comforted himself in his heart. This was why he didn't want his sister to know the truth.

After leaving the villa, Lin Feng was waiting outside the door with a carriage.

Although Lin Feng had not contacted Han Xu, he had taken care of Han Xu for many years and was already familiar with Han Xu's living habits.

There was already a tacit understanding between the two that was unimaginable to outsiders. Lin Feng always appeared at the right time when Han Xu needed him.

"Master, why don't you go to Fengxuan Pavilion or Wanhua Pavilion to relax? I'm afraid you'll be nervous during the test tomorrow."

"Uncle Lin, you're naughty."

"What do you mean by naughty?"

"Nothing, if you don't understand, figure it out yourself."

"Okay, Master, then should we go to Fengxuan Pavilion or Wanhua Pavilion now?" Lin Feng asked seriously, "If Master wants to be more passionate, you can go to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, but Master has just been there, so he might be a little bored. How about going to Yanchun Pavilion? I haven't been there for a long time."

"Go by yourself if you want to go." Han Xu couldn't He endured it and said directly, "I have to go home and sleep."

"Master, it's still early now, can you sleep?"

"Why can't I sleep? There will be an exam tomorrow, I'm nervous, and when I'm nervous, I want to sleep, is that not okay?"

"You are the master, so of course you can say anything."

"Oh my god, don't think I'm kidding." Han Xu said, "The academy exam is an extremely important and sacred thing for every student. It's reasonable to go to bed early and get up early."

Amid Han Xu's complaints and Lin Feng's laughter, the carriage gradually went away.

That night, the nightlife of the royal city was not deserted because of Han Xu's absence. If Han Xu came to take a look, he would find that there were many unfamiliar faces in the four pavilions, just like Yang Hao from Qingfeng Mountain who he saw in Xiaoxiang Pavilion last night.

It seemed that overnight, many famous people in the royal city appeared.
