My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare! Chapter 355 - 229 Yiren's Military Advisor [Happy Mid-Autumn

Regarding the "Chang'an Sanitation Managent Regulations," the residents of Chang'an were initially dissatisfied.

The scope of the Ministry of Justice's authority was too broad; spitting in the street could result in a five-lash punishnt and a day of imprisonnt, forcing people to swallow their phlegm and refrain from littering.

After all, even esteed academy teachers were not exempt from punishnt, let alone ordinary citizens.

They certainly did not want the Ministry of Justice to detain them for spitting.

However, as ti passed, the residents gradually felt that the regulation was not bad.

The streets of Chang'an visibly beca cleaner.

Garbage disappeared from the streets, and no one spit indiscriminately anymore.

Every so often along the street, several large wooden barrels were placed where residents had to categorize and dispose of their trash.

Walking on clean streets naturally lifted everyone's spirits.

Thus, from initial resentnt, the residents slowly shifted to support and uphold the regulation.

If any outsider failed to comply, they would speak up and help them correct their behavior.

Now, spitting in the streets of Chang'an no longer resulted in lashings or imprisonnt.

However, offenders did have to spend ti in a repentance room, copying the "Chang'an Sanitation Managent Regulations" ten tis and sweeping the streets for a day as a penalty for harming the environnt.

Li Mansion.

Li Nuo had just hypnotized Yiren, teaching her so painting techniques unique to the Phoenix, when Minister Lu Sheng of the Ministry of Rites hurriedly rushed in and said, "Lord Li, sothing terrible has happened—the Grandmaster of the Sky Eagle Sect just arrived in Chang'an and was arrested by the Imperial Guard. You better go have a look!"

The Ministry of Justice was responsible for too many significant matters.

Recently, this ministry had officially transferred the jurisdiction for punishing environntal pollution to the patrolling Imperial Guard.

The Grandmaster of the Sky Eagle Sect, along with a dozen disciples, arrived in Chang'an from Wu State and were barely inside the city gates when they spat on the ground. A vigilant citizen reported them, and they were taken into a repentance room by the Imperial Guard.

Upon hearing the news, Li Nuo imdiately rushed to the detention place.

When he arrived, the elderly man was copying the "Chang'an Sanitation Managent Regulations," which required that anyone spitting in the streets of Chang'an must copy the "Regulations" ten tis and clean the streets for a day.

Thanks to Li Nuo's intervention, the Imperial Guard Captain forgave one day of his public service.

The penalty to copy the "Regulations" ten tis was also reduced to just once.

After the man finished copying, the Imperial Guard Captain said, "Considering it's your first offense, and in light of Lord Li's regard, I'll let you off lightly this ti. Just be careful next ti; don't let it happen again..."

After leading the mbers of the Sky Eagle Sect out, Li Nuo apologized, "I'm sorry that such an incident occurred as soon as your sect arrived in Chang'an…"

The elderly man felt even more apologetic and said, "No, no, no, it's my own fault. I didn't realize that after being away from Chang'an for so many years, there would be many more rules…"

Li Nuo first took the mbers of the Sky Eagle Sect to register at the Ministry of Rites.

Each mber of the Sky Eagle Sect received an Identity Card.

This card served as both their room key and al card.

The Martial Arts Tournant was providing food and accommodations, aside from travel, and the court bore the costs. With this Identity Card, they could stay in the Martial Arts Village for free and enjoy the local cuisine.

The Martial Arts Village was modified from an Examination Hall by the Ministry of Industry.

Even the smallest Examination Hall in Chang'an could accommodate more than a thousand people.

This Martial Arts Tournant invited only second-tier and above sects, comprising a total of twenty-eight sects. The total number of participants from all sects would not exceed five hundred.

Li Nuo led them to the Martial Arts Village and stopped before a courtyard.

Above the gate of the courtyard hung a plaque that read "Sky Eagle Sect."

The opening of the Martial Arts Tournant was still a few days away; the Sky Eagle Sect was the first to arrive. After settling them in, Li Nuo inford them they could seek him at the Ministry of Rites in case of any issues in Chang'an before he left.

Including the grandmaster of the Sky Eagle Sect, this was their first experience of such attention from the court.

The initial displeasure upon entering the city was quickly replaced by curiosity and anticipation.

After Li Nuo left, they could not contain their excitent any longer and went out to fully experience the bustle of Chang'an.

By then, Li Nuo had already returned ho.

With his right hand, he mimicked a grasping motion in the air a few tis.

The Eagle Claw Sect was renowned in the martial arts world for its claw technique, with its power residing in the grip of the fingers.

The internal cultivation thods practiced by the sect focused on the ridians and acupoints on the arms, with the Powerful Eagle Claw Skill being particularly forceful, adept at capturing and locking, compressing bones, and targeting acupoints. When mastered, Splitting Gold and Breaking Stone was not beyond reach.

Sects like these might expose their simple techniques to the public.

However, their internal cultivation thods would surely remain confidential.

At this mont, Li Nuo had gained a profoundly deep understanding of the relevant acupoints for the claw technique.

Because the diligent citizen who reported them had been planted by him.

For the sake of a happy future, he had arranged many such citizens at every city gate.

Inside the gatekeeper's quarters at Li Mansion, the gatekeeper, Huang, looked up and was surprised.

The young master seed to be nonchalantly reaching into the air, but his movents contained ninety percent of the spirit of the Eagle Claw technique.

He, being a practitioner of boxing and exceedingly skilled in hand and claw techniques, recognized a hint of the Powerful Eagle Claw Skill in those moves.

Stepping out of the gatehouse, he said, "Young master, can I participate in this Martial Arts Tournant? I would like to exchange so moves with those grandmasters…"

Li Nuo replied, "Of course, I'll have the Ministry of Rites issue you a badge tomorrow."

The more strong participants in the tournant, the better, it's rely about an extra piece of clothing and making another naplate.

Li Nuo had stepped out, and his wife and Anning had already returned with Mumu and Ning'er.

Li Nuo returned to the room and saw that Song Yiren was still sleeping.

He didn't disturb her and didn't even call her for dinner.

For her now, nothing was as important as sleep.

After eating, they rested for a mont, and Anning felt a bit bored. Phoenix suggested everyone play vine ball together.

At this proposal, it was imdiately agreed upon by Mumu and Ning'er.

Although his wife didn't speak, her silence implied consent.

The vine ball ga was similar to playing shuttlecock.

It could be played individually or in a group, passing a small ball woven from rattan and wrapped in colorful ribbons among them.

Mumu and Ning'er were undoubtedly experts in this.

Light as sparrows and often playing this ga, they always managed to pull off so challenging moves, each pass precise and flawless.

His wife, naturally, had no issues either; these gas testing bodily coordination were simple for her.

Anning wasn't trained in martial arts; although her coordination wasn't as good as theirs, her cultivation from the fourth realm of Legalism saw her through without trouble.

Li Nuo was sowhat surprised to find that Phoenix could keep up with their rhythm entirely.

Of course, she had no cultivation and couldn't perform impressive maneuvers like mid-air kicks or gravity-defying hooks, but every pass she made connected, and each move was filled with grace.

Li Nuo felt awkward watching Phoenix and shifted his gaze to Anning.

Watching them play was beneficial to his eyes; as they moved up and down, left and right, his eyes felt less tired after a while.

The door behind him opened.

Song Yiren yawned and stretched lazily.

She had slept very comfortably.

It was the most comfortable sleep she had ever had in her life.

She hadn't dread of anything, and upon waking, all her fatigue had vanished, leaving her full of energy.

When she ca out and saw them playing vine ball, she imdiately jumped in.

Li Nuo noticed that a simple ga changed dramatically once Yiren joined; the initially leisurely and harmonious atmosphere quickly broke down.

The pace of the vine ball clearly quickened, especially when passed among her, Anning, and his wife, becoming more aggressive, with less play and more competition.

However, whenever the ball reached Phoenix, she always managed to slow down the rhythm.

That tense atmosphere also dissipated subtly.

After playing for a while, as dusk approached, everyone ended the ga and returned to their rooms.

Sitting at the desk, Song Yiren suddenly realized sothing.

She had slept well, waking up full of energy.

But having slept during the day, how would she endure the night?

Looking out at the dark night, she didn't feel the slightest bit sleepy.

Helplessly, she went to another room in the courtyard, gently knocked on the door. Phoenix, who had already bathed and changed into pajamas, answered. Seeing Song Yiren, she asked, "Yiren, it's so late, what's up?"

Song Yiren said, "I can't sleep; I wanted to talk with you."

Phoenix smiled and replied, "Then co in. I'm pretty bored anyway."

Monts later, the two sat at the table. After so idle chat, Phoenix spoke, "I could tell during our ga today. You still hold grudges against the Princess and your sister..."

Song Yiren sighed deeply.

How could she not hold a grudge against those who stole her husband and ruined her happiness for life?

Phoenix looked at her and spoke earnestly, "But they are now the mistresses of the Li Family. If you keep being hostile towards them, wouldn't it make the young master distressed? Over ti, your impression in his heart will only worsen..."

Song Yiren said self-mockingly, "I doubt I have any good impression in his heart..."

Phoenix shook her head and responded, "If he had no good impression of you, why would he teach you Swordsmanship? Even the birthday gifts he prepared for you were exactly the sa. This shows he cares about your feelings. A beautiful and righteous girl like you... no one would dislike..."

Song Yiren blushed at the complint and said shyly, "Righteous? What righteousness..."

Phoenix whispered a few words in her ear, and Song Yiren was startled, "So he was playing dumb and tricking that ti!"

Phoenix smiled and said, "That was a test you passed. After that, he felt guilty, and his attitude towards you must have changed, right?"

Song Yiren thought for a mont.

It seed to be true...

Before that, he was never polite to her.

After that incident, his attitude towards her indeed seed to have changed.

She looked at Phoenix and asked, "What should I do now?"

Phoenix leaned in and whispered a few words in her ear.

Song Yiren blinked and said doubtfully, "Just like that?"
