My wife is not a demon

"Has the Queen Mother not given you any orders?"

Mr. Ruan changed the subject. "After all, the sacrificial ceremony case is still very serious. It is a great credit for you to solve it."

will?

Chen Mu snorted and smiled.

The Empress Dowager can now hold the court alone for one more year, maybe she is still enjoying herself under the covers at this moment, and has already forgotten about me.

Chen Mu found a stone bench and sat down, and said lightly: "The prince of the Pisces Kingdom has not been found, so the case is not over. But I have already submitted the summary of the case, and the rest will be handed over to the government office or the Ministry of Punishment for investigation." Well, I'm tired anyway."

"Your Majesty probably won't give you orders anymore." Mr. Ruan had something in his words.

Chen Mu nodded: "Sure."

Leaving aside how tense the relationship between the two is, now that His Majesty is being 'fatty' beaten up by the Queen Mother, he is probably about to vomit blood depressedly, so there is no time to care about him.

"But you should let it go, you can't just think about stepping on two boats."

Mr. Ruan said slowly. "Last time in the case of the Pingyang Palace, you should have been able to get a better reward, but in the end there was nothing. Now that the case of the sacrificial ceremony has been delayed, the queen mother has not moved, so it is obviously not easy to promote you.

Zhenmensi's situation is special. If you work there, no one will say anything even if you step on two boats.But if you go one step further, the nature changes.

I don't understand what you are going to do. If you continue like this, you will not be the only one in trouble, and the Queen Mother will not be able to handle it either. "

This is already painstaking persuasion.

Mr. Ruan was not simply thinking about Chen Mu, but had other ideas.

He has now seen Chen Mu's ability, if this guy can take a step forward, it will be a boost to him.

It's a pity that Chen Mu stepped on two boats, making people look anxious.

Chen Mu shook his head and smiled: "The people behind Mr. Ruan are from His Majesty's camp."

Mr. Ruan did not deny it, and said frankly: "That's right, we all supported His Majesty's ruling, but we supported the Empress Dowager in this court battle, do you know why?"

Chen Mu said indifferently: "Your Majesty still needs to hone."

"There's a reason."

Mr. Ruan sat closer and lowered his voice. "Actually, we are also waiting for the real prince. No matter what, it would be great if the orthodox prince can be succeeded by the blood of the king. If the real prince is dead, then support your majesty."

These words are tantamount to breaking the heart of Chen Mu.

With the heart to win over.

Chen Mu sighed.

The factions within the imperial court seem to have only three forces, but they are divided into several small camps, all of which are for their own interests.

The forces behind Mr. Ruan obviously belong to the old tradition, they only recognize bloodlines and nothing else.

"Master Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, was originally a member of His Majesty's side, but this time the court also supported the Queen Mother." Mr. Ruan said.

Yu Tietou?

Chen Mu's heart moved.

Once in Qingyu County, Gao Yuanchun, the county magistrate, planned to recommend him to Yu Tietou.

As a result, because he killed Mu Erhe in the prison, Yu Tietou was dissatisfied, thinking that his character was not suitable for officialdom, so he gave up.

Even though he later became the chief arrester of the Six Doors, Yu Tietou never paid any attention to him.

According to some intelligence, Yu Tietou supported the emperor from beginning to end, but he highly respected some policies of the queen mother when she was in power.

To put it simply, he recognized the queen mother's ability, but he didn't want her to be the emperor.

The Yan Dynasty must have the surname Ji.

"People are always caught in a dilemma." Chen Mu said quietly. "Mr. Ruan, the most important thing is to find out who you are, isn't it?"

The stage on the waterside pavilion gradually came to an end, Mr. Ruan withdrew his gaze and fell silent.

Chen Mu changed the subject: "Would you like to meet an old friend?"

"A thousand taels of silver."

Mr. Ruan spat out four words.

Chen Mu was stunned: "What thousand taels of silver?"

Mr. Ruan said with a playful smile: "Didn't you see the announcement of Jiyue Tower just now? We can only chat for three sentences when we meet for a thousand taels of silver."

"..."

Chen Mu couldn't help complaining. "Is this a money grab? There will be such a Shacha in the world, who will spend 1000 taels of silver to meet a woman in a brothel, and only chat with her for three words?"

"Hello, there are."

Mr. Ruan nodded with a smile. "You underestimated Xue Caiqing's charm, just wait, she will be famous in the whole capital from tomorrow."

For a moment, Chen Mu didn't know what to say.

"She has been in the capital for a long time, and the people behind her have been helping her with publicity. The tea named after her, the top-grade satin and silk, the name of the top restaurant, and the famous works of countless talented people... plus her music. The profound skills of calligraphy, painting, zither and flute."

Mr. Ruan patted Chen Mu on the shoulder. "She will become a symbol of the capital, and her reputation will become bigger and bigger... Anyway, I can't afford it."

Chen Mu clicked his tongue secretly, and said, "Friendship is priceless. After all, we are fellow villagers, right. It's no problem to catch up in the past."

"Once the rules are established, you can't help yourself. You can try it."

Mr. Ruan urged.

Looking at those people scrambling to see Xue Caiqing's demeanor, Chen Mu recalled in his mind the dance that Xue Caiqing danced when he was parting in Qingyu County.

"Forget it, I have no money." Chen Mu said.

After a while, there was a commotion by the lake.

Only after listening to the discussions of the people around did I know that there was an event in Jiyue Tower.

Everyone can write the poems that Xue Caiqing danced just now, and the final winner can not only enter the small pavilion for a narration, but also get a sachet sewn by the oiran Xue Caiqing himself, and listen to the music three times for free.

"Propaganda is really slippery."

Chen Mu was speechless.
