On the other side, Liu Wei changed her clothes and went straight to Rong Ling's room.

Rong Ling was still awake, and was reading a book on the regional records in Immortal Yan Nation. On the other hand, the one sleeping on the inside of his bed with her stomach puffed was Xiao Chou.

Liu Wei slowly walked over to the bedside and took the book from Rong Ling's hands.

Rong Ling sat at a higher place, so his sleep was shorter than Liu Wei's. She just happened to rub his face against his waist, and this position made it easier for Rong Ling to wrap his arms around her.

Liu Wei closed her eyes and calmly experienced the tranquility of this moment, while Rong Ling placed his hand on her back. Step by step, she patted her back rhythmically, as if she was coaxing her to sleep.

Liu Wei was not sleepy. There were a lot of things to do today, so she could not sleep yet.

After closing her eyes for a while, she raised her head and looked at the man above her.

Rong Ling's hand was still on her back, but she had already picked up the book with her other hand and continued to read.

Noticing Liu Wei's gaze, he put down the book and looked over: "Can't sleep?"

Liu Wei shook her head and said: "I'm going out in a while."

Rong Ling frowned, her fingers caressing her eyelids: "Not tired?"

Liu Wei: "Beat the iron while it's hot, do a lot of things as soon as possible, it's better than dragging it out."

Rong Ling respected her decision but still said, "Come back for dinner."

This meant that no matter how busy he was, he had to come back before nightfall. He couldn't stay up late any longer.

Liu Wei responded softly, "Got it."

Taking advantage of the fact that he still had some time, Liu Wei told him about the murder case again. In truth, Li Kuan and Jiang Shi were linked, as long as Li Kuan's guilt was confirmed, Jiang Shi would not be able to escape. However, according to the rules, they still needed Jiang Ke's confession.

Therefore, this segment was the necessity of the second and final instance.

However, if they were able to obtain the confession letter before the second instance, then the second instance and final instance would basically be a formality. This was the rule used by the officials when handling cases, and it would be very easy.

Instead, he was curious about the Wan clan that Liu Wei was talking about.

Wan Shi's crimes were plentiful, so they couldn't be forgiven, but how could she punish someone for her actions?

She was not a meticulous person. It would not be difficult to find evidence of her crimes. What was difficult was how to convict her.

The name of a young girl from the Mansion of the Ting Jiang Prefecture was obvious. Not to mention County Governor Song, even if the Prefecture Overseer of White Mountain Prefecture were to personally come, he still wouldn't be able to do anything to the Jiang Clan.

Wan of the Clouds had her advantages. No matter what she did with her status, she would get away with it.

"The biggest difference between the Immortal Swallow Country and the Greencloud Country is the regional control system." As he waved the booklet in his hand, Rong Ling continued, "Qingyun Country is controlled by a monarch, while Xian Yan Country is controlled by a subregion. The governor of a province here has already reached the third rank, and usually, when there is no king in the city, the governor has all the jurisdiction to do so."

When Liu Wei heard this, she sat up a little. "Are you saying that this Prefecture Overseer is waiting for the local tyrant of the same region?"

She frowned. "The Emperor can tolerate it?"

Rong Ling said: "This is the most interesting part, the heads of the various provinces are all under the direct command of the Emperor, which also means that although on the surface, the heads of the various provinces are considered third grade officials, but in reality, they have the authority of first grade.

Liu Wei felt a sense of novelty: "There's actually such a division of authority?"

Rong Ling continued, "In other words, all of the prefectures and officials are the trusted aides of the emperor. Once the entire prefecture is sealed by the king, the relationship between the prefecture and the king will be the most interesting."

Liu Wei understood: "That means to say, for each prefecture to establish a prefecture overseer, it would be under the personal control of the emperor. But when the year of the feudal fiefdom arrives and the prefecture overseer gets banned, the position of prefecture overseer established by the emperor will not be withdrawn. That means to say, the emperor will have to share the position with the prefecture overseer? What was this? Restraining the royal families of the various prefectures? Is there such a way to play it? "

"No Emperor anywhere can escape suspicion." Rong Ling flipped to a certain page of the booklet and pointed it out to Liu Wei.

That page was an interesting piece of information. It was about a previous generation where a certain prince of a certain prefecture and a local governor had a dispute. In the end, neither side gave in and directly caused a ruckus in front of the emperor.

Liu Wei was quite speechless: "If this were to happen in Qingyun Country, as long as you reveal your identity, no matter what backer you are, as long as you commit a crime, immediately send me to jail. But the officials of Immortal Yan Nation are this messed up, there isn't even a supervisor here, that means, if I want to frame Wan Family, I have to directly go to the Emperor?"

Rong Ling then flipped to another page, which had the title of "Patrol Officer" written on it. It said that this type of official, who had authority over the private actions of the officials in charge of each prefecture, had a function similar to that of the imperial history of Greencloud Kingdom.

"That is to say, if there is a prosecutor backing them up, as long as there is evidence, they can still be convicted."

Rong Ling nodded.

Liu Wei read the book again and again before saying, "The Patrol Office is located in the capital? Are there any subdivisions in that area? "

Rong Ling shook her head: "Seems not, but the officials will occasionally go on state patrol."

Liu Wei clicked her tongue: "Tomorrow, I will go ask County Governor Song and see if he knows anything. It would be best to inquire about when the procurators will be coming from Bai Shan Prefecture."

After talking about some important matters, Liu Wei became spirited as well. She sat up from the bed, lowered his head and started to look for his shoes.

The Rong Ling who was caught unawares pulled her back.

Liu Wei turned around, and raised her eyebrows in puzzlement: "Hmm?"

Rong Ling grabbed her wrist and pulled her closer: "Lie down for a while more."

Liu Wei finally understood and suddenly laughed shyly. After saying that, she went back to the blanket and hugged Rong Ling's waist.

When the two separated, it was because someone had knocked on the door.

The person who knocked on the door was Yun Xin. She had changed from her previous outfit to a white dress. She had also changed her hair into a bun.

She was beautiful as she stood at the door. When she saw Liu Wei coming out, she exposed a big smile and passed the Kang Ning San over.

Liu Wei accepted it, and said thanks.

Yun Che wanted to see Liu Wei about to go in, but he hastily stopped her.

Liu Wei was confused: "Is there something else?"

Yun Xiao took out a handful of silver needles and said, "I'm not too familiar with acupuncture yet, but I can't really prick any of the acupuncture points. Can you teach me?"

Liu Wei was startled, looked at the color of the sky and said: "I'm going out soon …."
