My wife is not a demon

"Since Aijia came to power, many literati who are not used to Aijia have secretly arranged. As long as they come out with one or two poems that look depressing and lonely, they will think that this person is unappreciated and express their feelings. Then they will start crazy brainstorming, They made up countless outrageous and funny stories. They are not roundworms in the stomachs of these poets, how can they be so sure that the other party is really suppressed by the Ai family, so they express their feelings?" Bai Xianyu also laughed: "The Queen Mother indeed."

"Actually, except for some real nerds, everyone else is serious. It's rare to have a topic to create. How can we do it if we don't add fire." The empress dowager narrowed her cat-like eyes, and said in a homely tone .

"So, the Ai family sent the fire in Pingyang Palace to them, and let them burn it themselves, and see what they can burn." Bai Xianyu lowered his head: "The queen mother is wise."

"What is wise and not wise? It's not because of those old pedants." The empress dowager sighed, stroking the white paper with jade fingers like peeling onions,

"I heard that His Majesty has been restless for the past two days, and he even stayed up all night last night, so it's hard for him." Bai Xianyu kept silent knowingly.

In the past two days, His Majesty has been quite depressed. After all, this is the first time he has taken over such an important case, and it has something to do with him.

Every step was handled carefully, and even came to Fengyuan Palace yesterday to humbly ask for advice.

"About Ji Zhonghai's resurrection..." Bai Xianyu frowned.

"Is it just suppressed like this?" The Empress Dowager said indifferently: "You underestimated the influence of this person, if the news of his resurrection spreads, there will really be troubles at the border, and it will also be a big blow to the majesty of the royal family. You have to understand that faith is the scariest thing. In addition, from the results of the investigation, the Pingyang Palace obviously has some plans, and it depends on whether His Majesty is willing to investigate further." She stretched out her hand to straighten some black hair on Bai Xianyu's forehead, Changed the topic: "To be honest, that kid Chen Mu is really good. The Ai family looked down on him a little bit before, and he just came to the capital and solved such a big case not long ago." Bai Xianyu whispered: "Chen Mu His ability has always been very powerful." Catching the pride and tenderness in the woman's eyes, the Empress Dowager smiled and said, "It seems that you girl really have feelings for him." Hearing this, Bai Xianyu His face changed instantly.

She wanted to say something, but seeing the empress dowager's expressionless face, she lowered her head again and stopped talking.

"He has made a lot of contributions to this case, but..." the Queen Mother said after a moment of silence, looking at the window with carved patterns in Wanling.

"Let's see how His Majesty will reward you first, and Aijia will consider it later."

"Yes." Bai Xianyu nodded slightly.Seeing the sad look on the girl's face, the queen mother was amused: "Are you going to pretend to be in front of Ai's family? Is that kid really that good?"

"He...isn't well." Thinking of Chen Mu's messy stomach, Bai Xianyu curled her red lips lightly, with a little resentment.

The queen mother waved her hand helplessly: "Forget it, you just need to be careful. But Aijia is a little puzzled. Chen Mu is so smart, why hasn't he torn off your disguise? Are you really confused, or are you pretending to be stupid?"

"He really doesn't know my identity, because...he doesn't want to investigate." Bai Xianyu said bitterly.The Queen Mother was right. With Chen Mu's intelligence, if he really wanted to investigate his wife, he would probably be able to investigate it within a few days in the capital.

But he didn't want to investigate, he just treated it with a normal heart.An intriguing smile appeared on the corner of the Empress Dowager's lips: "In other words, he really doesn't care, he just treats you as an ordinary wife." Bai Xianyu remained silent.

Rather than saying that they don't care, it's better to say that both of them are avoiding and accommodating each other.The Empress Dowager laughed: "It's interesting, since that's the case, let it be. One day he will know your identity, and the Ai family wants to see what kind of expression he will have at that time." What Expression... Bai Xianyu secretly sighed.

She would rather this day not come, at least not before Chen Mu really rises, and give each other more time.

"It's time to release some news about the case of the civet cat prince." A cold light appeared in the empress dowager's eyes.Bai Xianyu was startled, restrained his other emotions, and said seriously: "Understood."——The drizzle flew down from the sky, like silk, endless.

Boss Su, dressed in coarse cloth, stood silently in front of the railing on the second floor of the restaurant, looking at the passers-by on the street, his brows were troubled.

"I guess he won't show up." Chen Mu picked up the wine bowl and said calmly.After the Pingyang Palace case came to an end two days ago, Hong Zhifan chatted with him for a few words and then disappeared, as if he had evaporated.

After learning about the case, Boss Su immediately searched in the capital, but unfortunately nothing was found.During the period, Chen Mu also dispatched a six-door patrol, but found nothing.

"He will show up." Boss Su scanned the passing pedestrians with a firm tone.Chen Mu curled his lips and said nothing, looking at Su Qiaoer who was stretching his waist and practicing kung fu on the other side.

The girl in the emerald pink dress seemed to be practicing a kind of body training technique, her expression was focused, and her willow-like waist was twisted into an amazingly flexible arc.

"This waist is really a snake waist." Chen Mu licked his lips, admiring secretly, he had already rehearsed a hundred and eight moves that could not be expressed in words.

Just when he was enjoying watching, Boss Su came back and sat in front of him.Chen Mu quickly sat up straight without looking sideways, showing the appearance of a gentleman.

"Did he say anything else to you?" Boss Su asked.Other things... Chen Mu fell into memory.

After coming out of the mausoleum, Hong Zhifan took the initiative to find him, and the two talked about some things.For example, the tragedy of the Hong family back then.

At that time, it was Ji Zhonghai who led a group of masters to encircle and suppress the Hong family, and his purpose was very simple, to keep the secret of the 'living dead Gu' alone and kill the prince.

That is, the silly child who was fostered by the mysterious person in the Hong family.As for whether the silly boy is the prince or not, Hong Zhifan himself is not sure.

Back then, the mysterious person left the child at their home. The child neither cried nor made trouble, just like a puppet.

Eating, drinking and sleeping are all normal, but it seems like a lost soul.Later, when Ji Zhonghai came to encircle and suppress them, he and his wife wanted to rush out with their daughter and the idiot, but they were intercepted and killed halfway.

At the critical moment, it was his wife who saved his life with her own soul.But the daughter and the silly boy disappeared without a trace.

During the days when he was pretending to be Hong Dalang, besides plotting revenge, he was also secretly looking for traces of his daughter, but unfortunately there was no news.

"Before the Pingyang Palace case was solved, he had some plans, so Lin Mengyuan was always lurking beside Ji Kou." Chen Mu said lightly.

"It was just disturbed by me, and in the process of his secret investigation, he had a very scary guess, but it has not been confirmed yet, and there is no way to confirm it after Ji Zhonghai's death."

"What guess?" Boss Su asked curiously.Chen Mu pulled the stool forward and lowered his voice: "Prince Yuan had only one wife back then, and the couple were extremely loving, but they never had children. The princess also suggested several times that Prince Yuan should take a concubine, and Prince Yuan would not hesitate to accept the concubine. No consent. Although he did not take a concubine, but at the request of the princess, Prince Yuan still found two women to have a husband and wife relationship, and wanted to have a child, but unfortunately they failed. Afterwards, many doctors were called to guess the reason for Prince Yuan's physique. Unable to conceive." Boss Su's eyes flashed brightly in an instant.

He opened his mouth and said in a hoarse voice: "In other words, the child born to Princess Yuan, who is the current emperor, may have something to do with Ji Zhonghai?"

"It's hard to say." Chen Mu shook his head.

"I've been thinking that Ji Zhonghai's behavior is obviously a delusion to become the emperor, but how much capital can he have to sit on the dragon chair after his resurrection? Even at the border, he still has followers of faith, and even in the capital he bought many officials. After all, it is not so easy to be the emperor. Unless he can turn the current emperor into a puppet, and he controls it behind the scenes. You must know that this is a world where monsters are rampant, and the bloodlines of father and son can make a big fuss. Pointing Gu and so on..." Chen Mu stopped talking and didn't continue.

Although there are no observers around now, some topics are still appropriate to talk about.Su Lao Dao: "Did you tell Suzaku Envoy about this?" Chen Mu shook his head: "After all, it's just a gossip guess. If you want to say it, Hong Zhifan has already said it. Now that Ji Zhonghai is dead, everything is meaningless. Don't you understand what the Queen Mother means? Ji Zhonghai died of illness 15 years ago." Boss Su laughed: "Although I don't understand some politics in the court, I think that even if you tell the Queen Mother, she will Act as if nothing happened.”

"That's true." Chen Mu laughed.

"After all, in name, the emperor is her son, not the son of Prince Yuan." When the late emperor brought the baby out of Prince Yuan's mansion, he had already severed ties with Prince Yuan, so there is no need to delve into this gossip after Ji Zhonghai's death. .

"This time you broke the case of Pingyang Prince's Mansion. It can be said that you have made a great contribution. How do you think the emperor will reward you?" Boss Su asked curiously.

On the other side, Su Qiaoer, who was practicing physical skills, came up and said with a smile: "Why don't you ask the emperor for ten beauties, and he will definitely give it to you."

"Hehe, am I that kind of person?" Chen Mu sneered.

"To put it bluntly, I, Chen, have never been a person who is greedy for beauty. Let alone ten beauties, there are a hundred beauties. I don't even look at them. I am a decent person."

"Cut, who would believe that you are a decent person." Su Qiaoer rolled her eyes.Looking at the little girl's ruddy lips, Chen Mu originally wanted to tease him, but he glanced at the old man, so he had to give up, and said seriously: "It's a bit difficult, I don't have much time in Beijing, so it's a bit uncomfortable to suddenly become an official and a nobleman." Reality, and the most important thing is that I am on two boats, if I am really appointed as a high official, I will probably be impeached to death the next day, so ah, at most it is a reward of some gold or something." Just as he was speaking, a voice came from outside the door Wang Fafa's voice was heard: "My lord!"

"What's the matter?" Chen Mu asked, looking at Wang Fafa who ran in out of breath.

"Promoted! Promoted!" Wang Fafa's face was full of excitement.Chen Mu was taken aback: "Who gave birth?" Wang Fafa expressed joy: "My lord, you have been promoted."

"..." The corners of Chen Mu's mouth twitched twice, and he almost slapped him, I gave birth to you!He got up and said: "My lord is going to receive the order."——Fengyuan Palace.

The empress dowager and Bai Xianyu sat at the table and sipped tea leisurely after finishing calligraphy practice.Not long after, a female official came in a hurry, knelt on the ground, and presented a secret letter.

"My queen, there is news."

"Oh, it seems that His Majesty has already considered how to reward your husband." The Empress Dowager took the secret letter, waved her hand to signal the female officer to step down, and smiled at Bai Xianyu.

"Guess, how high was the promotion?" Bai Xianyu pursed her pink lips, thought for a while and said, "I probably won't be promoted."

"Wrong." The Empress Dowager opened the secret letter, raised her phoenix eyebrows slightly, and smiled like a flower.

"Your husband was promoted to be the head arrester of the Six Doors, and Leng Tianying was transferred to another place, so he will say that from now on, your husband will have the final say on the Six Doors." Bai Xianyu was stunned.

She frowned, carefully considering His Majesty's intentions.

"Also..." There was a playful smile on the empress dowager's lips.
