My wife is not a demon

One hundred taels of gold, the emperor is quite generous.

In the capital, it is estimated that you can buy several villas, and you can buy a lot of oirans by then, such as Xue Caiqing can buy ten.

But when Chen Mu opened the box, he was dumbfounded.

Where is the gold!

Inside the box were copper coins, which were plated with a layer of golden dye and deliberately stacked into hills.

"Where is Gou Ri's gold? Was it swallowed by that dead eunuch!"

Chen Mu opened the other two boxes, which were full of silk and satin, with no trace of gold at all, and suddenly became anxious.

Bai Xianyu couldn't help laughing: "Sir, the hundred taels of gold bestowed by the emperor are rarely real gold."

"Is this thing going to be fake?"

Chen Mu was stunned.

Bai Xianyu explained: "You don't even think about the value of a hundred taels of gold. The emperor often rewards others, and it will be a lot of money in the long run. You can't say a few taels or dozens of taels. You can only use this kind of compromise." The method not only shows the majesty of the royal family, but also does not cost too much."

"Poor ratio! Picky ratio!"

Chen Mu was dumbfounded, that's the only way to describe it.

Is the treasury so poor?

Bai Xianyu said slowly: "Master, in fact, these copper coins wrapped with golden dye are sometimes more valuable than gold. Many people specially collect them. Every copper coin has a special mark of the royal family."

"Status symbol……"

Hearing the other party's explanation, Chen Mu could understand it.

Similar to superstar signatures, limited edition luxury goods, commemorative stamps, etc., they have extremely high collection value.

But if the Great Yan Dynasty is accidentally destroyed, it will be over.

"I sold them all when I went back. I should be able to sell a lot. I don't know if there is an auction house or something."

Chen Mu thought secretly.

In his eyes, only money is the most real thing.

"Chen Mu accepted the order—"

Just as he was about to take out the gold-dyed copper coins from the box, a sharp voice suddenly came from outside the door, quite loud.

Chen Mu was stunned, and looked at his wife in dismay.

Accept the purpose?

Why is this happening again?Could it be that he picked up loneliness just now?

Without thinking too much, Chen Mu hurried to check.

"Why is this?"

At this time, Bai Xianyu's eyes were full of doubts, and she had a premonition that something was wrong, so she followed.

Standing outside the door was a white-faced, beardless old eunuch in his fifties, followed by two young eunuchs.

"Your Excellency is Chen Mu and Chen Butou of the Qingyu County Government."

Looking at Chen Mu who came out, the old eunuch smiled amiably, with wrinkles on his face, which made people feel good.

"Chen Mu met Eunuch."

"The miscellaneous family is the servant of the Queen Mother, surnamed He."

The old eunuch glanced at Bai Xianyu who came out, and said with a smile, "To disturb you today is to bring the Queen Mother's order to Chen Butou."

Empress Dowager Yizhi?

Chen Mu was completely confused.

This is too coincidental, the emperor's edict has just left, and the queen mother's edict has arrived, can't you mother and son discuss it?

Isn’t it delicious to send it directly by SF Express?

"Chen Butou, don't you hurry up to accept the order?" the old eunuch said loudly.

Chen Mu had no choice but to kneel down and listen to the order.

"Chen Mu, the arresting head of the Qingyu County Government, has repeatedly solved strange cases and made great contributions in catching the snake demon. He has been specially assigned to the post of supervisor of the Xuantian Department of the Town Magic Division. I hereby!"

What's the situation with your uncle?

Chen Mu was dumbfounded.

Just now, the emperor's son appointed me as the head arrester of the six-door office, but you, the old queen mother, appointed me as the supervisor of the Xuantian Department of the Zhenmai Department.

Are you kidding me?

And this time there is no more gold hundred taels.

Bai Xianyu raised her head abruptly, looked at Eunuch He with her beautiful eyes, and asked why.

This also exceeded her expectations.

But Eunuch He didn't respond to her, and stared at Chen Mu with a smile: "Catcher Chen, what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you get an order to thank you?"

Cold sweat broke out on Chen Mu's forehead.

He realized that he was in trouble and was most likely involved in a court dispute.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager."

Chen Mu accepted the Queen Mother's order stubbornly, without any joy in his heart, only a chill down his spine.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Eunuch He, just now—"

"Captor Chen wants to resist the decree?"

Chen Mu hurriedly waved his hands: "No, no, no, it's mainly because His Majesty just now..."

"Chen catcher."

Eunuch He smiled meaningfully, and interrupted him, "The Queen Mother appreciates you very much. If you perform well in the Town Magic Division, you will have a bright future in the future. Don't disappoint the Queen Mother's trust."
