An hour later, Emperor Yuan and his court officials finished discussing state affairs and announced the adjournment of the court.

During this time, Jiang Yueyang and Xiaogua had a few minor incidents. For example, a certain adult wet the bed in the middle of the night, a certain adult liked to wear women's clothes, and a certain adult had a mistress outside...

This made everyone laugh in their hearts and they were very happy.

The adults who were the victims of the incident breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not a life-threatening matter. They were just made fun of for a few days.

It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter.

Jiang Yueyang followed Shangshu Jiang out of the hall. Seeing her father's forehead sweating, she asked with concern, "Dad, why are you sweating so much? Are you feeling unwell?"

Minister Jiang raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, feeling bitter but unable to express it.

"I'm fine, I just stood there for too long."

"Then let's sit down and rest for a while before we go." Jiang Yueyang said, pointing to the stone steps outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Minister Jiang: “…”

Is this a place where I can sit casually?

Besides, what's the point of sitting on the stone steps?

Minister Jiang waved his hand and said, "I won't sit down. I'm much better now. Let's go home."

"Is it really okay?"

"fine."

"Okay then." Jiang Yueyang supported him and continued to move forward.

Then she discovered that all the civil and military officials avoided her and her father, and some even glared at them.

Jiang Yueyang scoffed inwardly at this and complained to Xiaogua, "These adults are so obviously disliking me. Is it because I want to be an official? Or is it because His Majesty suddenly went crazy? If they dare, they'll give His Majesty the cold shoulder!"

Minister Jiang stumbled and almost fell, but fortunately Jiang Yueyang supported him in time.

The other adults paused, but quickly started walking again.

"Dad, look at you, you said you were fine. Why don't we sit down and rest for a while?"

Minister Jiang thought about it and nodded. He decided to wait until his colleagues were far away before leaving.

Otherwise, my daughter might say something shocking.

However, he refused to sit on the stone steps and just stood there.

At this time, Qin Shi, who was a few steps behind them, caught up.

"Minister Jiang." Qin Shi bowed to him.

Minister Jiang nodded slightly, and Jiang Yueyang stared at Qin Shi without any hesitation.

Previously in the hall, she had only taken a quick glance, but now, looking at him up close, she felt that Qin Shi was even more handsome.

Qin Shi shifted his gaze to Jiang Yueyang, and happened to meet those watery eyes, and was stunned for a moment.

But he quickly reacted and asked, "Miss Jiang suspected Lord Wu of cheating in the imperial examination in the palace. I wonder what her reason was?"

"I just said it in the palace. I just think he doesn't look smart."

Qin Shi smiled slightly, "Is that all? I thought Miss Jiang knew something."

At this time, the system spoke: [Host, since he asked, why don't you reveal some information to him so that we can kill Master Wu quickly. What if they are useless and can't find anything no matter how hard they try?]

【you're right. 】

Qin Shi: "..."

Jiang Yueyang lied, "Master Qin, to be honest, I just happened to hear someone mention Master Wu. That person said his knowledge was average, and his teacher didn't even plan to let him take the exam. How could someone who even the teacher didn't think was good enough suddenly pass the exam?"

"Perhaps Lord Wu has performed beyond his normal capabilities?"

Jiang Yueyang shrugged. "If you think so, it's not impossible. That's all I have to say."

[Hate it, why is Qin Shi speaking up for that fat guy? ]

Systematic and objective: [I am just making a reasonable analysis.]

Qin Shi expressed his innocence and said he was not speaking for Lord Wu.

He just wanted to invite Jiang Yueyang to the Dali Temple so that he could find an opportunity to let her take a look at those unsolved cases.

But there are differences between men and women, so he couldn't invite her directly, and he kept going around in circles but still couldn't get to the point.

Minister Jiang saw what he was thinking and took the initiative to say, "Yangyang, Dad wants to go sit with Master Qin. Do you want to come?"

"Dali Temple?"

They both nodded together.

Jiang Yueyang subconsciously wanted to say yes, yes. She really wanted to go and see what the Dali Temple looked like, but suddenly she remembered that her father was not feeling well.

"Dad, aren't you feeling unwell? Don't go, go home and rest."

Minister Jiang: "...I'm fine."

There was nothing wrong with his body, he was just making up an excuse.

"Dad, don't be so stubborn."

"I'm not trying to be brave." Minister Jiang quickly walked forward to prove that he was fine. "I have something to do with Master Qin. If you don't want to come with me, go home."

Jiang Yueyang watched her father's back as he walked further and further away, then she looked back at Qin Shi who was still standing with her, and finally followed her father with concern.

"Dad, wait for me."

More than a quarter of an hour later, the father and daughter followed Qin Shi back to the Dali Temple.

The vermilion gate is inlaid with golden door nails, and two majestic stone lions stand on both sides of the gate.

Entering the temple, a spacious bluestone avenue leads directly to the main hall, and a sense of solemnity hits you.

Flying eaves, brackets, carved beams and painted buildings.

Qin Shi took them to the backyard, which was the office and rest area for Dali Temple officials.

Jiang Yueyang looked around curiously. There were many rooms here, and each room had a sign hanging on it.

"Minister Jiang, Miss Jiang, please come in."

Qin Shi pushed open the door of a room, which was his independent office.

Minister Jiang walked up first, followed closely by Jiang Yueyang.

After entering, Qin Shima worked tirelessly to boil water and make tea. There was a small stove here, so the water was always warm, which didn't take much time.

When Qin Shi went to make tea, Jiang Yueyang walked to the table curiously, where there was a draft that had not been put away in time.

[This person's handwriting is quite beautiful.] Jiang Yueyang admired in her heart.

[The host's calligraphy of hairpin flowers is also very good.]

Jiang Yueyang raised her chin proudly, "That's right, you didn't even notice how long I've been practicing."

In my previous life, my grandfather was a calligrapher and I also liked calligraphy, so I started learning calligraphy when I was three years old.

It's a pity that she has no talent, but she can write small calligraphy with flowers on the hairpin quite well.

The calligraphy engraved in the soul will remain fresh in our memory even after reincarnation.

At this time, hurried footsteps were heard outside the door, and the next second a man about the same age as Qin Shi appeared outside the door. It was Cui Yuan, the Secretary of the Dali Temple.

"Sir, the matter you asked me to investigate has some clues..." The voice stopped abruptly.

He stared at Jiang Yueyang who was standing in front of the table, and a few words popped up in his mind: What a beautiful girl.

Qin Shi, who had just boiled water to make tea, saw Cui Yuan staring at Jiang Yueyang, so he stood up and walked over and kicked him secretly.

Cui Yuan came back to his senses, met Qin Shi's warning eyes, and quickly lowered his head.

Qin Shi introduced, "Minister Jiang, Miss Jiang, this is Cui Yuan, the Secretary of the Dali Temple. He will join me in investigating Lord Wu's case."

Jiang Yueyang forced a polite smile. Speaking of Lord Wu, she suddenly wanted to go and see how the fat guy looked after being beaten with a stick.

"Master Qin, can I go see Master Wu?"
