After returning to Fengjing, Li Xun originally planned to go to the palace to meet Zhao Zhi and his aunt Li Yi. A large group of dozens of people arrived at the gate of the imperial city. Duke Mu had been waiting for a long time and passed on Zhao Zhi's oral instructions. Only Li Xun was summoned.

Zhong and Liu Jie discussed the matter, while the others returned to their residences to rest.

That's fine. Li Xun missed Li Mancang very much after not seeing him for more than a month, so he quickly returned home.

Li Mancang was extremely happy when he saw his son, and he repeatedly asked him about his well-being.

After having lunch and washing up, Li Xun was preparing to take a rest when Liu Xie suddenly visited.

For a low-profile person like Liu Xie, most senior and fourth-level officials would not pay attention to him. But after all, Li Xun was a little tired after having a fight with him, but he still had someone bring him in.

Li Xun was drinking tea in the living room. Liu Xie walked in with a respectful smile, put the things in his hands on the table, and said with a flattering face: "Congratulations, sir, on your triumphant return."

Li Xun put down his tea cup and took a look at the items on the table. It was a palm-sized silver Buddha, about ten or two in weight.

"Why, I've learned how to give gifts to others, and I've been doing pretty well lately!"

Liu Xie bowed and said with a smile: "The adults are joking, but the villains are just trying to make ends meet and can't get on the stage."

Li Xun smiled and touched in his arms. He only had banknotes but no silver. So he reached out and touched Jiang Daxiong's wallet, which was standing aside. He took out a twenty-tael silver ingot and threw it to Liu Xie.

: "We are all members of our family, so you don't need to be so polite. It's not easy for you. If you come here again and think about giving gifts, don't even think about entering my house."

Liu Xie may have problems as a person, but he also has a great advantage, that is, he is extremely filial to his serving mother. His mother has been paralyzed for many years, and Liu Xie takes good care of her and never leaves her, which is really not easy.

Liu Xie held the silver, lowered his head slightly, and was extremely moved. The gift he gave may not be anything in Li Xun's eyes, but when Li Xun accepted it, he also gave him money, which meant that he did not look down on him.

Being respected by others is often more rare than anything else.

Li Xun looked at Liu Xie and asked, "How did you know I was back?"

Liu Xie laughed and said: "When the adults return to the city, there is such a big movement, it is difficult for a villain not to know about it."

Li Xun nodded: "I don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Liu Xie glanced at Li Xun and said cautiously: "Sir, do you understand the new commander of the Inspectorate?"

Li Xun was stunned: "Not Zhu Zhengguo?"

Li Xun remembered that when he resigned as the commander of the Procuratorate, he once recommended Zhu Zhengguo in front of Zhao Zhi. Is there any change?

Liu Xie shook his head and said: "It's not General Zhu, but Wang Fan."

Wang Fan?

Li Xun tilted his head and thought about it, but he had no impression of this person.

Seeing that Li Xun was silent, Liu Xie whispered again: "Wang Fan is the prime minister of the dynasty and the son of Wang Renzhi, the Minister of Punishment."

Li Xun narrowed his eyes, looked at Liu Xie, and heard something behind the scenes: "Liu Xie, what happened to the Inspectorate?"

"Sir, the new commander has a bad temper. General Zhu..."

"Are some of my brothers in the Procuratorate being bullied?"

Liu Xie smiled bitterly and nodded.

Li Xun's face turned cold. He established the Inspectorate by himself and spent a huge amount of money and food. The price was not small. Now he heard that Zhu Zhengguo did not take over his position. Instead, an outsider picked the peach and acted arrogantly.

Fu, how could Li Xun not be angry when he bullied his old brothers?

Li Xun's face was full of anger, and he stood up suddenly. His first thought was to rush to the Inspectorate immediately to find Wang Fan's bad luck, but... this thought just passed by in a flash. After several wars, Li Xun was no longer

Young and young, he remembered what Fan Zhongyun often said to him: before doing anything, think twice before acting.

Wang Fan is the son of Wang Renzhi, the prime minister of the dynasty and the Minister of Punishment. This status may be very remarkable in the eyes of others, but in the eyes of Li Xun, it is worthless. Who is standing behind him? His aunt Li Yi and the emperor Zhao Zhi

, who can compare with the identities of these two people?

Li Xun had concerns. Although he established the Inspection Yuan by himself, he had resigned after all and was no longer in his position and did not seek political advice. The people in the Inspection Yuan were all recruited by himself, and the land on which they lived belonged to him.

The prestige he has given them in their hearts cannot be compared to that of Wang Fan. It is easy to get rid of him, but if he really does this, it will definitely arouse Zhao Zhi's suspicion and displeasure. In Zhao Zhi's case,

In my heart, there are not many good generals in the world.

When Liu Xie saw Li Xun standing up angrily, and then sitting down again, his face slowly calmed down, Liu Xie suddenly became upset. The reason why he came to Li Xun was because he had no choice. Since Wang Fan took office as the Inspectorate, he has been serving for nearly a year.

Yue, has been stirring up trouble, obviously trying to establish his authority. Recently, he has the intention to transfer Zhu Zhengguo and Yan Yi. These two people can be said to be his backers in the Procuratorate. Previously, Wang Fan tried to win over him, but he did not agree.

Having offended him, Wang Fan would never let him go once Zhu Zhengguo and Yan Yi were transferred out of the Procuratorate. This was the real reason why Liu Xie came to Li Xun today.

Liu Xie said awkwardly: "Sir... look..."

Li Xun looked at Liu Xie and asked, "What's going on in the Inspectorate recently?"

Liu Xie quickly replied: "Brothers from the Inspection Yuan were very happy when they heard that Your Majesty was coming back. However, Wang Fan was not happy. He ordered that your name should not be mentioned in the Inspection Yuan. The day before yesterday, he even dragged the Inspection Yuan away.

Our team went to Lingxian County, sixty miles away, for training, but they didn’t come back for a few days. There were not enough people patrolling the city, and some troubles occurred, which has aroused Master Liu’s dissatisfaction.”

There was a sneer on Li Xun's face. Wang Fan knew that he was coming back and pulled the team out, obviously to avoid him.

After pondering for a moment, Li Xun already had a plan in mind and said to Liu Xie: "Go back and tell Zhu Zhengguo that I need an opportunity, an opportunity to get rid of Wang Fan."

Liu Xie's eyes lit up, and he bowed and said: "I know, I know. When General Zhu and the others come back, I will tell him what I mean immediately."

After that, Liu Xie said goodbye and left.

Li Xun shook his head and put aside the matters of the Inspectorate for the time being. When Zhu Zhengguo and the others came back, they would discuss it and make plans.

After leaving the living room, he met Xiaolian. Li Xun smiled and said hello, but the latter gritted his teeth and glanced at Li Xun with tears in his eyes. He ignored him and turned to leave.

Li Xun touched his head, and was confused by Xiaolian's behavior. From the moment he came back to now, Xiaolian has been indifferent to him, and his eyes are full of resentment. His nose is not a nose, and his eyes are not eyes.

Yes, I don’t know where I offended her.

"Boss, if you don't go out, I will go to bed."

Jiang Daxiong walked by.

Li Xun waved his hand: "You go to sleep, I'll call you if anything happens."
