My wife is not a demon

And judging from the two people's conversations and the degree of tacit understanding on weekdays, it is obvious that they have been double for a long time.

"Strange, why did Du Biwu find a substitute for himself?"

Chen Mu thought secretly.

Generally speaking, there are only two reasons for such officials to find a substitute.

One is to prevent assassination.

This phenomenon is very common. Many officials will find substitutes after they learn that they are being targeted by killers.

But this is only a temporary replacement.

After all, a substitute is a substitute, and will never be able to do what the rightful owner should do.

It is almost rare for Du Biwu to stand in for a long time.

So there can only be a second reason——

Du Biwu was not in the yamen most of the time, so he had to find a substitute to help him with official duties!

A majestic magistrate has not been in the yamen for a long time.

Where will he go?

Does he have other identities?

Countless clues and information were intertwined in Chen Mu's mind, gradually filtering and pieced together an unbelievable answer.

"The same tattoo...Zha Zhuxiang assassinated Murong Ruozhu...Master Du died suddenly...Yu's companion was killed...The stability of Dongzhou City...the compromise of the Tiandihui..."

Chen Mu suddenly took a deep breath.

Although he couldn't believe the conclusion he deduced, it was undoubtedly the most logical conclusion.

That is--

There is a high chance that Master Du and Master Murong are the same person!

is that true?

If this is true, it will inevitably shake the court and shock all officials, and it will also cause heated discussions among the people.

Chen Mu's back felt cold, and he subconsciously clenched the blade.

Do you want to go in and capture the two of them?

No!

As soon as the idea came up, Chen Mu dismissed it.

If Master Du is really Murong Rudder Master, with Murong Rudder Master's strength, even if his strength improves, he will not be his opponent.

Besides, Dongzhou can't be chaotic now.

In particular, the fact that the important officials of the imperial court are the rudder masters of the Heaven and Earth Club should not be leaked out and let the world know.

Otherwise, the imperial court must lose face.

Even the empress dowager, who was reused by Mrs. Du before, will be burdened with infamy and taint, which will affect the next road to power.

Other anti-inflammation forces will also use this to make a big fuss.

At this time, the two people in the room started talking again.

"I know that killing that woman made you very dissatisfied. But she lurks by your side just to avenge her husband. You are also a pig brain, and you actually let people know my true identity."

Master Du in front of the desk said coldly. "Fortunately, her daughter killed another substitute of mine, otherwise... this Dongzhou would have been in chaos!"

The stand-in at the door, Master Du, said indifferently: "Then you should also be handed over to me."

"I'll deal with it for you, that woman probably ran away long ago."

"Is that why you don't trust me?"

"Hmph, of course I trust you, but you are too kind of a woman, and you always refuse to be cruel to women. If I hadn't wiped your ass behind your back these years, you and I, the prefect, would have been able to sit safely now?"

Perhaps because he knew he was wrong, the stand-in at the door kept a cold face and did not speak.

Hearing these words in Chen Mu's ears, he was absolutely sure that Mr. Du was the helm master of Murong!

Chen Mu was in a complicated mood.

Murong Duozhu's case is basically clear.

When Ma Yunzi was made a scapegoat, his wife and daughter came to avenge him.

The wife approached the substitute Master Du and became Mrs. Du.And learned the identity of the real Master Du from the substitute Master Du.

And her daughter planned to assassinate Murong Tudor.

It's a pity that although the assassination was successful, the one who was assassinated was also Murong Duozhu's substitute, and the success fell short.

As a result, Mrs. Du's identity was exposed and she was killed by the real Mrs. Du.

Of course, there are still some questions.

For example, why Ma Yuzi's wife can get close to Master Du.

After the initial approach, why not just assassinate?And how did she know that Mrs. Du beside her was a stand-in?

Another example, why did Zha Zhuxiang choose to assassinate in that way?

But now another thing can be explained.

When Bai Xianyu was inspecting Mrs. Du's body that day, the mysterious headless general suddenly appeared, intending to assassinate Bai Xianyu.

Later, a strange sound was heard, and the headless general left suddenly.

Thinking about it now, the headless general was not General Feiqiong, but Ma Yunzi's daughter, Zha Zhuxiang.

And the reason why she appeared that day was because her mother was killed, so she showed up, feeling sad and angry.

It's not to assassinate Bai Xianyu.

Having figured this out, Chen Mu sighed secretly: "Although everything is clear, the situation is getting worse and worse. I'm afraid that there is still an unknown cruel truth waiting behind."

Forget it, let's leave here first and tell the lady what I found.
