The news that Liu Yu returned to Jiankang City soon spread throughout the officialdom of the Shun Dynasty. For the current Dashun Dynasty, Liu Yu, the regent, was equivalent to the emperor, and he was the one who decided many things.

In the few days after Liu Yu returned, there were more memorials from Chang'an City. Han Sheng also reported some not-so-important things, allowing Liu Yu to decide the priorities of the matter. During the days when Liu Yu went south, there were a lot of things in the court, and Qier never cared about these things.

Liu Yu handled the official documents for two days, and Liao Mingsheng from Huaibei also submitted the latest progress of the Huaibei counter-case.

Liao Mingsheng investigated and dealt with tens of thousands of people in four months, and there were thousands of officials and great scholars who were finally confirmed to be guilty. In addition, the family behind these people, there were tens of thousands of people to be investigated for this case. Liu Yu smiled helplessly. Although he expressed his support for Liao Mingsheng, he did not want Liao Mingsheng to involve the case so much, because he also knew that many of the people involved were innocent.

In order to prevent the situation from expanding, Liu Yu decided to take a trip to Huaibei Province. Because Xu Xuanzhu was still in confinement at this time, it was not suitable to travel far, so this time it was not a smooth journey back to Chang'an City, but he went north specially.

When the family heard that Liu Yu was leaving again, the female family was still reluctant to leave. After all, Liu Yu had just returned and had not waited for a few days, Liu Yu was leaving again. This time, it would take half a month to go back and forth.

"Husband, let's go back together. I have been away from Chang'an City for a long time, so I want to go back and have a look earlier." Xu Xuanzhu suggested sadly.

Liu Yu was in a dilemma: "Madam, your body..."

"I'm fine, the road is bumpy, but I always have to rest. I don't need to ride a horse, I can handle it."

Liu Yu knew that Xu Xuanzhu didn't want to leave him for too long, not that he was not worried about the bumpy road.

Liu Yu said: "Let the people below prepare for it first. We will set out in two days and pass Huaibei Province. You will go to Luoyang City first. I will leave for a while and then set off north and go back to Chang'an together."

Xu Xuanzhu nodded. He originally wanted to be separated from Liu Yu for more than half a month, but now he only needs to be separated for a few days. Finally, he doesn't have to suffer from lovesickness and no longer demands.

Liu Yu immediately asked the officials below to prepare the emperor's carriage and his rank, prepared the carriage and the accompanying guards. This time he went north and went directly to Luoyang to return to Chang'an City. If Xu Xuanzhu couldn't stand it, his rank could also stay in the city north for a while. Anyway, Liu Yu was not too anxious about returning to Chang'an City. After all, there were Han Sheng, Sui Yi, Li Mi and others in Chang'an City, so there was no need to worry for the time being.

Arrange everything. Liu Yu also sent a letter to Liao Mingsheng, asking Liao Mingsheng to temporarily put the case down first and then implement it specifically when he arrived. Liu Yu is also planning to take many cases to Chang'an City before declaring it. If he starts a massacre in Huaibei Province, he will easily fall into the whirlpool of public opinion and cannot get out.

The group set out on September 20th and went north across the river and headed towards Xuzhou City. Liu Yu was originally worried about Xu Xuanzhu's body. But he obviously underestimated the recovery ability of a female general. Although Xu Xuanzhu experienced difficult labor and suffered a lot of physical loss, she had only a few days. In addition, the weather in mid-September was still mild, without cold and moisture, and Xu Xuanzhu's confinement period was also very smooth.

Liu Yu also knew that it was because of his side that Xu Xuanzhu was happy and he was in good health faster. He also deliberately made the Luanchang walk slowly and did not rush to rush the road. This was not too bumpy along the way, and he could also enjoy the scenery along the way, which was a pleasant tour.

When he arrived in Huaibei, Liu Yu also had to take the way to Dongning Mansion first, so he had to separate from the imperial carriage. Liu Yu left the female family at home, so he accelerated his trip and arrived at Dongning Mansion in two days. He met Liao Mingsheng, Liu Ding and others.

During the past few months when Liu Yu left, Liao Mingsheng had become the local emperor of Huaibei Province, and he was cruel and unkind. He said he would investigate whoever he had done, and no one dared to have any objection. Many people were afraid of the Confucian party, and they also tried their best to cooperate with Liao Mingsheng from the beginning. After several months, Liao Mingsheng had changed his image as a minor official. Now everyone in the world knows that he, a "ruthless official", was helping Liu Yu investigate the case, and it was a means of being unkind.

I heard that when Liu Yu arrived in Dongning Mansion, Liao Mingsheng personally welcomed him out of the city, which was extremely respectful.

When Liu Yu arrived, he found that Dongning Mansion was very different from the last time he came. The streets were martial law, and the people could not see any of them. Only officers and soldiers could be seen at the city gate, just like a garrison city on the frontier. Liu Yu could also guess that Liao Mingsheng's investigation brought a white terrifying atmosphere to the local area.

Liu Yu got off the horse, and Liao Mingsheng stepped forward and kowtowed, as if he was treating the emperor's ritual.

Liu Yu asked him to get up first, then pointed to the surrounding environment and said, "Where have the people... gone?"

Liao Mingsheng didn't expect that as soon as Liu Yu got down, he began to ask about the people. He was stunned and said, "Qiansui, that's right. I heard that when you come back, the officials have already asked the people guarding the city to prevent people from disturbing Qiansui's carriage."

Liu Yu's face sank and said, "Didn't you tell me not to call him Qiansui?"

Liao Mingsheng was exterminated by Liu Yu and was immediately a little nervous as soon as he came up. He quickly changed his words and said, "Prince..."

Liu Yu didn't say anything, but got on his horse again and entered the city under the escort of the guards. When he arrived in the city, the streets were still very quiet, and the shops were closed, which made Liu Yu feel deserted. From the memorial sent by Han Sheng from Chang'an City, Liu Yu had seen many foreign officials' criticisms about the reputation of Li Oh. These voices were secretly submitted to Chang'an City. Some people said that Liao Mingsheng disturbed the people, but now Liu Yu has seen them in person, and feel that it is not unreasonable.

When he arrived at the prefect's mansion, Liao Mingsheng personally helped Liu Yu off his horse, and then followed Liu Yu into the mansion in the back. When he arrived at the main hall, Liu Yu sat on the main seat of the yamen and asked, "Mingsheng, how has the case been investigated recently?"

Liu Yu asked about the case directly, and it was a general concept like "how to investigate", which made Liao Mingsheng not very well understand what Liu Yu meant, but he already felt that Liu Yu was angry with him, and he should be angry that he made too much trouble. Liao Mingsheng actually had a clear idea of ​​his actions, and he also knew that making things bigger would be inconvenient. Originally, he thought that Liu Yu would support him, so he was unscrupulous. When he felt that the situation was really serious and he wanted to stop, it was too late, and the matter could only get bigger and bigger, and he could not control himself.

Liao Mingsheng said respectfully: "The case was investigated, and I am waiting for you to decide."

"Yes." Liu Yu just nodded and said nothing for the time being.

Liu Yu asked Liao Mingsheng to submit the detailed case first and ask him to check it first. Liao Mingsheng felt a little embarrassed: "The prince is tired from traveling. The official has prepared a rest place for you. The prince should rest first, and then check it out..."

Liu Yu glanced at Liao Mingsheng coldly. Liao Mingsheng immediately stopped talking, but immediately asked the people below to come to the main hall.

A Niu Lu plot against the case involves dozens of boxes of Confucian officials and Confucian scholars. Liu Yu originally believed that the reports from Liao Mingsheng were already considered to be a lot. Now it seems that those are just catalogs of these case sects. It is indeed not easy to read all these case sects. With his own efforts, he can only scan them for ten days and half a month at most, and he still has no idea.

Liu Yu finally showed a smile on his face and said, "Mingsheng, you are very hard-working in investigating the case. It's quite troublesome to sort out so many cases in a few months, right?"

Liao Mingsheng quickly said, "Your Highness is the only one who is here to do your business for the prince, and you dare not be slackened at all."

Liu Yu nodded slightly. He was in a hurry to look at the case sect, but now he is not in a hurry. If you look at these things, you can exhaust him to death. Sometimes you have to do what you can if you seek truth from facts.

Liu Yu said: "You first sort out a profile, divide all the people involved in the case, etc., and classify them in a certain way. The King of Ming Dynasty will ask you in detail."

Liao Mingsheng finally felt relieved when he heard Liu Yu's arrangement. This shows that Liu Yu still has something to do with him, rather than denying his labor for the past few months.

Liu Yu was indeed a little tired during the journey. Liao Mingsheng personally took Liu Yu to the direction of the palace. After the Luan Kai left, the palace was also renovated. The traces left by Niu Lu's rebellion had been completely restored. When Liu Yu arrived, he also felt that Liao Mingsheng had used his heart, although these were not his own business.

Liu Yu arrived at the residence and Liao Mingsheng was about to retreat. Liu Yu said, "In a few days, people will come from the imperial court. Then Mingsheng, you can hand over the case sect, so you don't have to worry about the rest."

When Liao Mingsheng heard Liu Yu's words, his heart sank. Could it be that Liu Yu was preparing to cross the river and destroy the bridge and abandon him?

"Prince, that official..."

Liu Yu said: "You will go back to Chang'an City with me, and you will be sent to you..."

When Liao Mingsheng heard that Liu Yu was about to take him by his side and become an official in Chang'an City, he was extremely sad and kowtowed to thank him. Liu Yu said, "Get up, as long as you do your best, even if the matter is not done well, and I will protect you! Just like this time, the discussions in the court can drown you dozens of times, but you are doing your business for me, how can I treat you badly? But you must remember that if you have any bad things in the future, I will not only not protect you, but will also be the first to punish you!"

Liao Mingsheng understood what Liu Yu meant. Liu Yu made him loyal. He would do whatever Liu Yu said. If he had something to betrayal, even if he did nothing wrong, it would be a death sentence.

"The official understands." Liao Mingsheng thanked him again.

"Go down." Liu Yu said.

Liao Ming rose up, but did not hurry to walk, and walked forward two steps: "Prince, the official has some small arrangements, I want to ask the prince to move..."
