My wife is not a demon

On the day of resignation, Gao Yuanchun and Chen Mu went to a restaurant to drink for half the night.

This young man with a bright future, but was forced to be the magistrate of the county for 20 years because of the civet cat case, was the first time to drink and chat with Chen Mu as a friend.

"After my mentor was imprisoned, I thought I could die as generously as my mentor and other colleagues, but unfortunately I finally backed down..."

Gao Yuanchun smiled bitterly and sighed, "Once a person is afraid, it is very difficult to stand up. After being a turtle for half his life, he feels that his spine can no longer be straightened, and he even sleeps curled up."

Facing the county magistrate's self-mockery, Chen Mu remained silent.

The other party is not a clean official, nor is he a local official with outstanding ability, but he is not a bad official in the eyes of the people.

At least for Gao Yuanchun, he is grateful from the bottom of his heart.

"The Suzaku Envoy stood in front of me that day, do you know what I was thinking?"

Gao Yuanchun sighed, "I didn't think about anything, I was only afraid. You kid didn't see how cowardly I was, kneeling on the ground and couldn't get up. In the end, it was Suzaku who helped me up...haha."

Speaking of this, Gao Yuanchun himself laughed happily, smiling, his face was full of tears.

His body was bent.

Always hunchbacked.

Chen Mu added some wine and said, "Your Excellency is not cowardly."

Gao Yuanchun waved his hand: "Mr. Ruan and I are classmates, 20 years ago he was more cowardly than me, he was so frightened when he knelt in front of Hades, and even hated Hades at that time, so I kept scolding him.

Every time I chat and play chess with him, I scold him for being too useless.As for him, he didn't even talk back, as if he was afraid that Hades would hear it, he just shrank his head.

But now he has to enter the Metropolitan Procuratorate and face those Hades, the emperor, the queen mother, and the ministers who suppressed his teacher back then.

It turned out that he had been forbearing and never gave up.

But I didn't dare to take a step forward, so I was more than a thousand times more cowardly than him. "

Gao Yuanchun raised the jug, raised his head and drank wildly, letting the wine soak his clothes.

"Chen Mu."

Gao Yuanchun patted him on the shoulder, "I used to think that you are very smart, not only for handling cases, but also for socializing, so I decided to push you out and give you a chance to enter the capital.

But after the incident where you killed Mu Erhe, I regretted it again.After all, I still haven't seen through you, but it's too late. "

He has a complex expression and a sincere tone:

"But now I am somewhat relieved, if you hadn't killed Namu Erhe, perhaps one day, you would become like me.

I have lived my whole life in vain, and I have failed too many people.

In the future, let your heart go.

If you really encounter any trouble after arriving in the capital, you can go to Mr. Ruan, but he is cautious, so it depends on the situation if he can help you. "

"My lord, do you think I can still enter the Ministry of Criminal Justice?" Chen Mu asked.

Gao Yuanchun smiled wryly and shook: "I don't know, it should be safe, but it's a pity that something happened to the princess again. But no matter what, you will definitely go to this capital, it depends on the decision of the people above."

After drinking with the county magistrate, Chen Mu temporarily started a leisurely life.

There has been no news from the capital.

Chen Mu was not in a hurry, he went out to play with his wife Qingluo during the day, and drank with his former colleagues at night to say goodbye.

Or go to Ju Chunlou to chat with Xue Caiqing to prevent this woman from suddenly being overwhelmed.

Wen Wenren and Zhuge Fengchu went back early.

Yun Zhiyue did not leave, and most of the time she wandered around outside Chen Mu's house to prevent the appearance of ghost brides or snake demons that would be harmful to Chen Mu.

Sometimes Chen Mu would bring her into the house for gatherings to play backgammon or something.

Everyone was happy and happy.

There is another little episode.

Hei Ling, the personal guard of Zhuquetang, once took people to Qin Academy to investigate the 'unnamed' Taoist, but there was no movement after the investigation, and he left Qingyu County the next day.

This made Chen Mu, who was a little tense, secretly relieved.

But the next day when the lady asked him if he knew the Taoist, Chen Mu naturally opened his eyes and said nonsense, saying that he met him on the boat by chance.

Bai Xianyu still believed her husband's lies.

At the same time, she was also a little distressed.

The unknown Taoist's clues were cut off at the husband's place. If you want to continue to search, it is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack, and you can only collect information slowly.

Or wait for the next time the unknown Taoist makes a poem to expose his position.

Of course, no one would doubt that Chen Mu is the Taoist Wuming.

Including Bai Xianyu herself.

After all, those two poems are too strong. With Chen Mu's half-educated level, being able to write a sentence is already smoking in the ancestors.

……

The next day, the sky was a little gloomy.

The continuous spring rain falls like fine cow hair, falling on the dirt path shaded by green grass, shining faintly.

In the rain and fog, a rather luxurious carriage slowly drove up and stopped in front of Chen Mu's house.

It caught the attention of some passers-by.

A eunuch wearing a scale robe and official boots got down from the carriage, holding a long golden jade box in his hand.

Chen Mu who heard the movement trotted out of the hall.

Bai Xianyu and Qingluo followed closely behind.

After seeing the person coming, Chen Mu was taken aback for a moment. This eunuch was none other than Eunuch Rong whom he had met before.

The other party works as a supervisor of ceremonies, and is a celebrity around His Majesty.

Last time, he came to deliver the emperor's oral order.

"Chen Butou, let's meet again."
