The little princess' mind was read, and the court and harem were eating melons

The four people who had just arrived in Beijing thought that their actions were very covert, but in fact, everyone they needed to know knew.

Including Li Qingyi, who doesn't pay much attention to this information.

Li Qingyi was reminded by the system when these people entered the city: [Host, your four students have entered the city, namely Lin Xile, Chang Fangyi, Xing Zhou, and Xing Yue.]

Li Qingyi took a while to realize what happened, but her first question was: [Why are there only four of them? Where is Hu Pingan?]

Back then, Hu Ping'an accidentally picked up Chang Fangyi, Xing Zhou, and Xing Yue, who were almost homeless. Li Qingyi was unable to go in person to check on the three due to personal reasons, and the three were not in a suitable condition to travel to Beijing again, so Lin Xile took the initiative to propose a reunion with the three old classmates.

Now, several years have passed, and Li Qingyi has learned some information about the three people from system messages, letters and some other means of communication, but has never met them so far.

She was still very worried in the early years, but later she gradually received letters sent by the three of them. In addition, Lin Xile and Hu Pingan indirectly proved that the three of them were now living a normal life and did not seem to have too many psychological traumas left, so she gradually breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Qingyi was still paying attention to the situation of these three people, but she also had her own life, so she didn't have too deep an obsession with these three people, and didn't mean to observe their movements all the time, so it wasn't until the system reminded her that she realized that these three people had returned to Beijing with Lin Xile.

System: [Hu Pingan and his students organized a pig-raising competition in the local area, and they will be judging the prizes at the end of the year, so they did not come back together.]

Li Qingyi: [……]

Li Qingyi: [Very good.]

As soon as I informed Li Qingyi of the news, I heard from the system that the foursome was planning not to tell Li Qingyi for the time being: ...

Well, anyway, his host is Li Qingyi and not Lin Xile and the others, so it doesn’t matter, right?

Thinking in this way, the system no longer feels guilty at all.

Li Qingyi: [Why didn't they tell me in advance that they were returning to Beijing at this time? ]

System: [It seems like I am planning to give you, the host, a surprise. ]

Li Qingyi nodded in understanding, it was not difficult for him to understand.

However, Li Qingyi quickly remembered Wang Xuan's situation and was shocked: [Did they go directly to Wang Xuan? Could it be...]

Both the Queen and the Seventh and Ninth Princesses, who had vaguely sensed something, told Li Qingyi that although the situation near the Chen family seemed calm, there were actually many more spies secretly observing.

Some of them are so obvious that they can be spotted with a little attention; others are hidden because they are tipped off and prepared in advance.

If four strangers showed up at this time, I'm afraid those people would target Lin Xile and the others.

System: [Host, rest assured. Lin Xile has some intelligence in his hands. He had inquired about the situation before entering Beijing. He knew that something was wrong with Wang Xuan and had no intention of rushing to her house.]

System: [They seem to be planning to stay in the capital city as passers-by and see how things go.]

Hearing this, Li Qingyi realized something and wondered: [Aren’t they going to come find me? ]

System: […Host, it is not convenient for you to leave the palace recently, right? ]

Li Qingyi: ...

Almost forgot, hey.

Li Qingyi: [Where do they live? ]

System: [Hu Ping'an has a house in Beijing. ]

Oh, yes. Before, Hu Ping'an made a lot of contributions through farming and was successfully granted a title of nobility. Then, her father readily granted Hu Ping'an a house in the capital and also awarded him some land outside the capital near the imperial farm. Hu Ping'an even came back specially to deal with these extra properties.

Hu Ping'an is not in the capital, but his reputation as the God of Agriculture has spread. In addition, the emperor and the prince always mention him during the summer and autumn harvests every year, so his house in the capital is not abandoned, and the people who stay behind manage the house well.

Li Qingyi would deliberately pass by and take a look from time to time, and sometimes he would deliberately ask in front of others whether the people in the house were bullying others, and it did have some effect.

Lin Xile and his friends have been following Hu Ping'an for the past few years. Although they don't say it openly, in the eyes of others they are probably Hu Ping'an's students or something. As long as they have Hu Ping'an's token, it won't be difficult for them to move in.

System: [Their original plan seemed to be to live in Hu Ping'an's house first, to help Hu Ping'an check on his housekeeper and other things to see if there were any problems, and to stay for a few months to make sure there were no problems before returning to Lin Xile's hometown.]

Li Qingyi: [Ah, it’s about that matter. ]

System: [Yes, she has never forgotten it. She even studied hard with Hu Ping'an for several years and wrote several notebooks.]

Infrastructure construction is not just about building houses.

Li Qingyi: [Now that all parts of Daning have seen the effect of infrastructure, I think it will be much easier for Lin Xile to go back and start work now. ]

In the past few years, the imperial court has selected several test sites, and the results have been quite good. Even if there are some inappropriate aspects, it is mostly because the officials sent there are incompetent, or they are too eager for quick success and end up messing things up.

But overall, the results are good.

At least, judging from Li Qingyi's own merits and those of the people around him, the result was good.

After making sure that Lin Xile and the others could take care of themselves, Li Qingyi thought for a moment, asked the system to help keep an eye on them, and then did not rush to recognize them.

So, when Li Qingyi heard the news about the foursome from other people, they didn't know how they had become famous in the capital.

Li Qingyi: "Wait, what are the Four Famous Detectives? Aren't they four detectives?"

Fang Xin coughed lightly. She could fully understand why her prince was so shocked. After all, she was also shocked when she received the news.

Fang Xin: "This title... It seems that some people say that these four people performed heroic deeds in the capital, helped the government arrest criminals several times, and solved several cases, just like the 'Four Famous Detectives' in the previous storybook."

Fang Xin: "At first everyone was just praising them, but later on, as the news spread, many people really believed that these four people were government detectives."

After a pause, Fang Xin continued, "Then the Seventh Princess found out about this, and she told the Crown Prince. The two princes then wrote a memorial together, saying that for the sake of the government's reputation, it would be better to give these four people the position of honorary constables."

Fang Xin only found out about this matter because of this memorial.

Li Qingyi opened and closed his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but for a long time he couldn't utter a word.

After a long while, she murmured in a low voice: "How did it develop into this?"

As for the title of honorary constable, it can be heard that it was borrowed from the honorary president of Wang Xuan!
