My wife is not a demon

Zhang Awei's face was full of envy: "There are not many people in this world who can be summoned by the emperor, boss, you are going to be promoted all the way."

Seeing the young man's envious expression, Chen Mu smiled and said, "It seems that you really want to be a high official."

"Of course, who doesn't want to be a high official and get ahead."

"Then do you want to experience what it's like to be a high official?"

"Huh? Can you still experience this?"

Zhang Awei was stunned.

Chen Mu nodded, and said slowly, "Of course, come on, you kneel down first."

Zhang Awei, whose head couldn't keep up with the opponent's rhythm, was circled for a moment, then knelt on the ground, and asked with a puzzled face: "And then?"

Chen Mu said indifferently: "Ai Qing is flat."

"..."

The corners of Zhang Awei's mouth twitched. "Boss, do you think I'm an idiot?"

"Like Dasha Chun."

Chen Mu kicked it, and said in a bad mood. "I know the dream of being a high official all day long, you really think it's a good thing that the emperor called me into the palace."

"Then what is his purpose for summoning you?" Zhang Awei asked curiously as he stood up and patted his knee.

"You don't understand it."

Chen Mu took out a small notebook and charcoal pencils, and his tone became more serious.

"Tell me about the day you went to Fayue Temple, who you met and where you went. Now Fayue Temple is the only clue. Both you and Mrs. Xu have been there. I want to investigate."

Zhang Awei frowned, carefully recalling:

"At that time, a goose raised by a farmer ran to the south courtyard of the back mountain of Fayue Temple, but the executive monk refused to let it in. I happened to be on patrol, so I took the farmer to negotiate, and finally the goose was found.

I have only been to the south courtyard of the back mountain of Fayue Temple, and the people I have come into contact with are only the farmer and the monk in charge of the back mountain. "

Chen Mu looked at him: "During the process, did you encounter any strange things?"

"strange things……"

Zhang Awei thought about it for a long time, and suddenly his eyes flashed. "When you asked, I remembered that. I saw the farmer's goose enter the bushes, but I couldn't find it. After we went back, it appeared at the foot of the mountain again."

Chen Muqian leaned over, his eyes were bright: "Are you sure it's not your eyesight?"

"Both the farmer and I saw it. We were going to catch the goose, but we saw it enter the bushes, and we couldn't find it."

Zhang Awei spread his hands. "After appearing at the foot of the mountain, although we were surprised, we didn't think much about it."

Chen Mu wrote down this information in a small notebook, then tore off a blank page and handed it to him: "Give me an approximate location."

"Oh well."

Zhang Awei nodded, picked up the charcoal pencil and began to draw.

……

After leaving Meng Yanqing's house, Chen Mu went straight to the six doors.

Seeing that Chen Mu came back safely, the guards, who were still in panic, immediately felt relieved.

Wang Fafa was even more delighted, and hurriedly knelt down to salute: "I pay homage to my lord, my lord is blessed with great blessings, and I will be blessed by heaven..."

"Your flattery is too embarrassing, get up quickly."

Chen Mu pulled him up impatiently and asked. "Master Xu's side has been okay for the past two days."

Wang Fa smiled awkwardly, and nodded quickly: "Everything is normal, Mr. Xu will probably be buried the day after tomorrow. Although Mrs. Xu is sad, there is no abnormality."

Bury the day after tomorrow?

Chen Mu was a little surprised, but after counting the days, it was almost the same.

It's good to have a good relationship with Xu Youxin when the time comes to pay homage to Young Master Xu, so I'll ask some more questions by the way.

"Has anyone approached Master Xu's house again?"

Chen Mu said again.

Wang Fafa shook his head lightly: "Brothers have been watching. No one has been near that yard these days. Let alone people, not even a fly has flown in."

Chen Mu signaled Yan Xiaoer at the door to pour some tea, raised his cup and said, "I guess I've already startled the snake, let's keep watching."

There are too few clues in Young Master Xu's case now, and that small courtyard is the only place that can be investigated, so we can only try our luck.

And the dead Xiu'er seems to be an unsolved case at the moment.

"Yes."

Wang Fafa nodded.

Suddenly he remembered something and took out a note: "By the way, my lord, yesterday the foreman He brought news that the scholar named 'Yan Shimei' you asked them to look for earlier had a clue."

"Yan Shimei? Who is it?"

Chen Mu frowned and couldn't think of it for a while.

Wang Fafa said: "It's a missing scholar. A woman with a big belly and a little girl came to our six doors to ask for help. She said that her husband was missing. You just showed up, so I asked Chief He and the others to investigate."

After being reminded by the other party, Chen Mu just remembered.

The woman with the big belly and the little girl in the old red shirt couldn't help but come to mind. At that time, the little girl said she was hungry, so he even bought a sesame seed for her.

There are too many things these days, but I completely forgot about this matter.

"How, did you find it?"

"No." Wang Fafa looked strange. "After continuous inquiries from Foreman He, the last time Yan Shimei appeared was... in front of Hong Dalang's house."

Hong Dalang?

Chen Mu was startled, picked up the paper and read it.

The investigation results in the content said: Yan Shimei went to Hong Dalang's street for two consecutive days, and then never appeared again.

"Could it be Yinlian?"
