The imperial court had always neither supported nor suppressed the so-called Jianghu in the martial arts world.
No one could deny the existence of the martial arts world. However, although it existed in the Jing Kingdom, it was not something that he, as the emperor, could control. This was something that no king wished to see happen.
"Did they commit crimes and disturb the public security near the capital?" Emperor Jing put the booklet aside and asked.
The so-called heroes of the martial arts world were, to put it bluntly, bandits. There were many people who bullied the weak. There were many such people on the wanted list of the government.
Changde shook his head and said, "The Secret Intelligence Division attaches great importance to this matter. There have been no such incidents in the past few days. On the contrary, there have been few cases in and out of the capital these days. This group of martial arts people boast of being chivalrous and righteous. They will help when they encounter injustice. Several wanted suspects of the Ministry of Justice were killed by them. "
Emperor Jing was startled. He had always heard that the bandits in the martial arts world committed crimes and committed many big crimes. When did they become so kind that they would help the government?
Changde explained, "There is a Chivalry List in the martial arts world. If these people want to be on the list, they have to do more chivalrous things. The local government has a tacit attitude towards this kind of thing. They will even take the initiative to cooperate with them. The public security of some states and counties is indeed much better."
"Chivalry List?" Emperor Jing nodded slightly and said after a moment, "The martial arts world is also a great force. If it can be used by the imperial court, it will be of great help."
Changde showed a bitter smile and said, "Your Majesty, the martial arts world … will never be used by the imperial court. Most of them are arrogant and obsessed with martial arts. They are extremely resistant to the government and the imperial court. They will not work for the imperial court directly. Moreover, after the Heroes Assembly, those people have dispersed. It is not so easy to gather them again. "
"If they can continue to be like this, it is also a good thing." Emperor Jing pondered for a moment and asked, "Is it possible to recruit the leader of the martial arts world?"
Chang De smiled and shook his head as he recalled the information the Intelligence Division had gathered. With two Grandmasters participating, it was strange that the position of Alliance Leader had ended up in the hands of that little girl.
Just as he was about to speak, he raised his head and saw Emperor Jing clutching his chest. His breathing was rapid and his expression changed. In a flash, he appeared beside him and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty …"
Two eunuchs hurriedly ran out of the hall. Not long after, the imperial physician, Liu Jimin, carried a medicine chest and quickly stepped into the Hall of Diligent Government …
…
…
"Damn it, why is the winter in the capital so cold? It's at least minus ten degrees …"
Wearing a thick coat, Li Yi stood in the yard, stamping his feet and blowing air into his hands.
Xiao Huan, who was standing at the side, also wrapped herself tightly. She wore thick gloves on her hands and tiptoed to help Li Yi brush off the snow on his shoulders.
"Madame said yesterday that the winter in the capital is very cold. She was afraid that the young master and Miss would not be used to it …" The servant girl, who had just celebrated her sixteenth birthday, helped Li Yi straighten his collar and said, "The young master should go back to the house and stay for a while."
"If you are cold, go back first." Li Yi shook his head. He rubbed his hands a few times and they immediately became warm.
This was the second winter he had spent in this world. The winter in Qing 'an Prefecture was not too bad. Although there was snow, it was not very cold. The winter in Jingdou, on the other hand, was no different from the winter he had experienced in his last life.
Holding a delicate wooden knife in his hand, the snow sculpture on the stone table was almost complete.
Xiao Huan looked at the snow sculpture on the stone table and the corners of her mouth curled up. There were four palm-sized figures in total: Eldest Miss, Second Miss, the young master, and her.
Although after moving to the capital, there were countless good food and fun things to do, but what she missed the most was still the days in the stockade with the young master and the young miss.
The proud Lolita, who had wrapped herself up like a bear, rolled out of the room. Seeing the snow sculpture on the stone table, her large eyes immediately widened.
"I want it too, I want it too, I want to be with father and mother … if father sees it, he will definitely be very high …"
Li Yi rubbed the proud Lolita's little face. She ran away before she finished speaking. Rubbing her face quickly, she picked up a snowball from the side and threw it over. She said angrily, "You wait, I'm going to find Sister Ruyi!"
Finishing, she rolled back into the room to complain.
Li Yi placed his hand on his face and immediately shivered. When he looked at Xiao Huan, the servant girl broke into a run.
He rubbed his hands hard and turned back to look at the snow sculpture on the stone table. He smiled and turned to walk back into the room.
It was the winter of the second year of Jinghe, the 23rd of the twelfth month, the Little New Year.
Two months had passed since the Heroes Assembly. Two months ago, the old Emperor fell ill again. Although his life was not in danger, his body did not seem to be getting better. The morning court session changed from one day to three days, then five days. At this point, the last time the officials attended court was already seven days ago.
The winter weather was cold and the air was dry. It was the season when asthma occurred frequently. The second year of Jinghe was a hot summer that had not been seen in decades. It indicated that this year's winter would be especially cold. This matter was finally confirmed not long ago.
In this period of time, Li Yi had entered the palace a few times. The old Emperor's body would not collapse in a short period of time. At least, it would not be a problem for him to survive this winter.
The earth dragon was burning hot. The inside and outside of the room were two different worlds. Little Nian wanted to eat dumplings. Ruyi was making dumplings. On one side was Miss.Liu. Xiao Huan sat on the other side to help. Yong Ning was watching from the opposite side. As for the tsundere Lolita, she was purely here to cause trouble.
When she saw Li Yi coming in, she pounced towards Li Yi with her hands covered in flour. Li Yi's palm pressed against her forehead, so she could only bare her fangs and brandish her claws.
In the end, she gave up on smearing the flour on Li Yi's face. When she turned around and saw the dumplings Miss.Liu was making, she immediately held her stomach and laughed.
Li Yi had long understood that Miss.Liu was an otherworldly fairy. If she made dumplings well, she would not be called a fairy.
He walked over and took her place. He pushed the pile of strangely shaped dumplings to the side. The dumplings had to be made quickly. The two little princesses had to return to the palace before the sky turned dark.
Miss.Liu stood up in embarrassment and anger. After glaring at him, she turned around and walked out of the room.
It was still snowing heavily outside. In the blink of an eye, a layer of snow had fallen on the previously clean courtyard. Two maids stood beside the stone table in the courtyard with brooms, chattering to something. Miss.Liu walked over and looked at the stone table for a long, long time …
According to the custom, firecrackers should be set off before the meal. The tsundere Lolita volunteered to light it up. When she was escaping, she accidentally slipped and fell. Now, she was pouting and rubbing her butt. She looked rather depressed. However, this trace of depression soon disappeared when she ate the only newly minted copper coin in the dumplings. She jumped and jumped to show off …
After the meal, the snow gradually subsided. Li Yi sat in the courtyard and thought about something.
In a few days, he would officially enter the Three Years of Scenery. Everything seemed to be going smoothly, but in fact, there were still many things that had not been resolved. In early spring, the academy would open. At that time, he naturally could not be as leisurely as he was now …
A small snowball flew over and hit the back of his head. The cold snowflakes poured into his neck and immediately woke him up.
The arrogant laughter of the tsundere Lolita came from behind him. When Li Yi turned around and walked over, the laughter turned into a scream …
