During the Tang Dynasty, the six ministries were arranged in the order of officials, rituals, militia and criminal work, and the Ministry of Personnel was the first of the six ministries.

And what about the Nine Lords? It is natural that Taichang Temple is headed.

Because Taichang Temple is the place that controls the national rituals and music, and this is an institution that the court attaches great importance to, its position among the nine ministers has always been as stable as Mount Tai.

Taichang Temple has the Minister and Shaoqing as the chief and deputy chief, respectively the third rank and fourth rank. Today, the Minister of Taichang Temple is called Pei Tianrui. Since Taichang Temple manages many royal affairs, it has a close relationship with the royal family and is a truly high-ranking official.

County Magistrate He Shanguang rode out of his back door in an unnamed ox cart. He creaked and walked around and came to Pei Taichang's mansion.

As soon as he handed in, the corner door opened, moved the threshold and let his ox cart drive in.

After the car entered Pei Mansion, County Magistrate He got off the car and went straight to the study.

Taichangqing Pei Tianrui was playing the piano in the study room. When he saw him coming, he nodded. He Shanguang sat aside, calmly, closed his eyes and listened to the music. After Pei Tianrui took a song, he gently licked his high-high and praised: "Ya Xian's piano is already incredible."

The affairs of Taichang Temple include various sacrificial activities, and various sacrificial activities require three wines. The first time is carried out by the emperor and is the first time. The second time is the responsibility of the Taichang Temple Minister, so the Taichang Temple Minister also has a nickname called Yaxian.

Pei Yaxian smiled and stroked his beard and said, "He Ming Mansion is here at this time, should there be something important?"

He Shanguang bowed and said, "That's right, Xiaguan took on a case today. The case is not complicated. However, there seems to be people with ulterior motives behind the plaintiff and defendant. Xiaguan thinks it is very strange, so he asks Yaxian to give advice."

After hearing what he said, Pei Taichang, the leader of the Nine Ministers, was his backstage.

Pei Tianrui smiled faintly and said, "The most exciting part of this world is that it is not something that can be placed on the table."

Pei Tianrui paused and said, "However, if you can make your He Mingfu so cautious, I'm afraid the person involved in this case is not simple."

He Shanguang nodded and said, "A Xian is wise, that's exactly how it is!"

At this moment, He Shanguang explained in detail what happened before and after the entire pile incident.

Pei Tianrui's eyebrows moved and said, "Is the prince just passing by?"

He Shanguang said: "It seems like he was passing by by chance, but... the last time a man in black in black was in Xiuzhenfang assassinating the prince. At that time, he was inexplicably sent to Chang'an County by the prince. This was also Li Yu! The next day, Princess Gaoyang took him out again at the order of the prince."

Pei Tianrui's expression moved.

He Shanguang said: "Therefore, the officials thought that the prince was probably not passing by by chance, but predicted the matter and came to rescue Li Yu."

Pei Tianrui pondered: "Li Yu had originally arrived in Chang'an County as a plaintiff, but the procuratorate sent someone early, and during the conversation, it was obvious that you wanted to hold Li Yu accountable."

He Shanguang said: "Not bad! As soon as the people from the prosecutor left, the people from the Cultivation Hall came to petition, and they responded to each other, which was a perfect match. If you say that there was no discussion in advance, haha, that would be a bit coincidental."

Pei Tianrui said with a serious expression: "I don't know about this matter at all, and I still have to investigate it carefully. However, judging from what you said, this matter is definitely not simple."

He was silent for a moment and said, "Last time, someone assassinated the prince and Li Yu saved the situation. This time, someone assassinated Li Yu, and the prince relieved the siege! What is this Li Yu's identity? What is it doing?"

He Shanguang said: "The officials have already checked it. Speaking of which, Li Yu is still in charge. He is the mayor of the West City Office!"

Pei Tianrui was stunned and looked a little strange: "Is he actually from my Taichang Temple?"

He Shanguang smiled bitterly and said, "That's right!"

Pei Tianrui's eyes narrowed slightly: "The Xishi Municipal Administration is under the jurisdiction of my Taichang Temple, but in fact it is the territory of Chang Jiannan, a hero in the West. This Li Yu has an official position in the open, but secretly a hero in the market. There is also a vague involvement of the current prince. This game of chess is not easy to see clearly."

He Shanguang said: "The officials also found it difficult, so they came to ask Yaxian for advice."

Pei Tianrui slowly raised his head and looked at He Shanguang and said, "Let's assume that Li Yu is a disciple who is now the prince who has released a riot. Then who is driving the people of the Censorate and the Cultivation Hall?"

He Shanguang's eyes flashed and he said, "Of course this person must be someone who can compete with the prince!"

The two of them looked at each other and said at the same time: "King of Yue Li Tai!"

As soon as these four words were expressed, both of them looked cautious.

After a while, Pei Tianrui took a deep breath and said, "The King of Yue was granted a title every year and was also a governor of the state. As far as I know, next New Year's Day, the emperor will grant him the commander of the Zuowuhou and the governor of Yongzhou."

He Shanguang's face changed slightly: "Governor of Yongzhou?"

Pei Tianrui nodded: "Yes!"

Yongzhou is Jingzhao Prefecture, which means Chang'an, where the capital of the Tang Dynasty is located. In other words, starting next year, Li Qingque, who is loved by thousands of people, will also serve as the chief in charge of Chang'an, Xijing.

He Shanguang lowered his voice and said, "Can the emperor really have the idea of ​​being easy to save?"

Pei Tianrui glanced at him and sneered slightly: "You and I don't have to stand in line and have a clear future, so there is no need to take the risk of boarding the ship!"

He Shanguang's somewhat lively thoughts were splashed with cold water by Pei Tianrui. He immediately became clear and said solemnly: "What Yaxian said is! Then..., if Li Yu's case is actually involved in the dispute over the legitimate affairs, what should the subordinates do?"

Pei Tianrui stroked his beard, squinted his eyes slightly, and pondered for a moment: "The person behind the scenes is trying hard to separate his relationship and is unwilling to go bare-handed, then you should pretend that they do not exist. Li Yu's case is handled as Li Yu's case, do you understand?"

He Shanguang smiled: "The officials understand, the current situation is still unclear. It is more cost-effective to have a little 'hutu' than smart."

Pei Tianrui nodded: "I understand this and I will go and inquire about it. Just do business in your place!"

He Shanguang stood up and bowed: "The official understands what to do!"

He Shanguang didn't stop for much and immediately stood up to say goodbye.

Pei Tianrui did not get up and saw him off. He just nodded, watched him leave, frowned slightly, and thought for a while, and gently slapped three times. A little maid waiting outside the door came in after hearing the sound. Pei Tianrui ordered: "Prepare the car, I'm going to the Grand Sikong Mansion!"

The Grand Sikong was the prime minister of the dynasty and the first meritorious official in Lingyan Pavilion. It is obvious that He Shanguang’s backstage was Pei Tianrui, the minister of Taichang Temple, and Pei Tianrui, the backstage of Pei Yaxian, was the uncle Changsun Wuji.

Being an official is cautious. Although there are some people behind the scenes of Li Yu's case, and there is a prince who is looking at him, it may not be possible to say that they have already intervened. However, under the cautious magistrate He County and the cautious Pei Yaxiansi, the prince who was fighting for the legitimate position and the King of Yue had already started to fight.

So except for their hands and feet, they opened up all their five senses, staring, listening, smelling, thinking, and feeling, for fear that if they accidentally get caught in the eye of the wind.

And the people of the Jianghu would not judge the situation like them and plan before acting. The struggles of the Jianghu people are simple and crude, so how can they look back? Especially now that Li Yu is detained in the Chang'an County Government, he temporarily handed over the control of dozens of Jianghu Rangers to the brothers Li Bohao and Li Zhongxuan who are afraid of the world's chaos.
