I am a cannon fodder, so what's wrong with grabbing an opportunity?

Mu Xi woke up on the second day after Liu Yi delivered the medicine.

Mu Xi would rather remain unconscious.

Xie Zhiqiu proudly showed off his achievements during this period to Mu Xi.

He robbed a lot of things from the weak Mu Xi.

In order to show his brotherly love, Mu Xi had to make arrangements for her.

Xie Zhiqiu immediately spread the news everywhere and even boasted to Cheng Mo.

Cheng Mo smiled on the surface, but he was cursing in his heart.

Ever since the arrival of the envoy's junior fellow apprentice, he has appeared in front of the envoy less and less frequently.

Liu Yi even came to talk to me privately.

After Mu Xi finished taking the medicine Xie Zhiqiu prescribed for her, she said:

"Although She Zuo gave you the token, he may not completely trust you. You still have to be careful."

"rest assured."

"If you need help these days, you can use Cheng Mo. He is quite capable."

"Ah."

"..."

Mu Xi said a few words, then felt tired and let Xie Zhiqiu leave.

Xie Zhiqiu left Mu Xi's room and went to She Zuo.

Mu Xi woke up, and She Zuo didn't arrange anything for him.

However, Xie Zhiqiu still has to fulfill his duties now.

Liu Yin was a little surprised that Mu Xie came over and asked, "Why are you here?"

"The guardian said that Envoy Mu has just woken up. You can rest for two days and wait until Xiang Qianyan's remaining soul recovers."

"The Lord Protector understands us, I can't really do nothing."

Xie Zhiqiu scratched his chin shyly, and when he found that he had no beard, he put his hand down again.

Seeing this, Liu Yi did not say much:

"In that case, you can go to the Shen family with Liu Er."

Only when he followed Liu Er to Shen's house did Xie Zhiqiu have time to ask Liu Er for details.

"Brother Er, why are we going to the Shen family, the relatives of Palace Master Wei?"

Liu Er asked back: "Do you really not know or are you pretending not to know?"

"what?"

Xie Zhiqiu was confused. "I haven't been out for the past two days. What did I miss?"

Liu Er looked at Mu Xie and was really confused, so he said:

"This has to start with the old story you told the guardian..."

"Back then, Wei Ming, Xiang Qianyan, and Shen Mei from the Shen family were among the candidates for the Nankun City branch hall.

However, Xiang Qianyan later defected and Shen Mei withdrew from the election, leaving Wei Ming as the only candidate for the reserve palace master."

Xie Zhiqiu asked in shock: "No way."

She really didn't expect there would be such a story.

"Could it be that Xiang Qianyan was killed by Wei Ming?"

Xie Zhiqiu blurted out.

It was Liu Er's turn to be shocked and he covered his mouth with his hand.

If I had known that this kid was so outspoken, could he have said such things casually?

Liu Er warned: "Be careful with your words, don't talk nonsense without evidence."

After getting Xie Zhiqiu's consent, Liu Er let Xie Zhiqiu go.

"Although Wei Ming has been temporarily confined by the guardian, this is his territory after all. Even if someone can protect you, you have to be careful and don't let others get involved."

For fear that Mu Xie might not understand, Liu Er made his words as plain as possible.

"Remember, we are only here to ask about He Huo, don't ask anything else."

"it is good."

Even with Mu Xie's assurance, Liu Er still felt a little uneasy.

I don't understand why Liu Yi asked me to bring him out.

Xie Zhiqiu followed Liu Er to visit the Shen family, but they were obviously not welcomed by the Shen family.

Shen Mei, who received them, said in a bad tone:

"Why are you guys here at my Shen's house?"

"I came here uninvited, please forgive me, Fellow Daoist Shen."

Liu Er didn't care about Shen Mei's attitude and maintained a friendly relationship.

Shen Mei didn't respond, and said bluntly: "Just say it, I'm very busy."

Liu Er did not beat around the bush and asked:

"There is one thing I want to confirm with Fellow Daoist Shen. Wei Ming said that He Huo was captured with the help of the Shen family. Is this correct?"

Shen Mei snorted coldly and replied:

"I'm not afraid to tell you that the Hehuo was prepared for him by our Shen family."

Shen Mei was too straightforward and Liu Er was a little slow to react.

"Fellow Daoist Shen did it on purpose."

Xie Zhiqiu looked into Shen Mei's eyes and spoke.

"Yes, he killed my son, so I won't let him off easily."

Shen Mei did not hide his murderous intention.

"Now there is an opportunity to bring down Wei Ming. All Fellow Daoist Shen needs to do is tell us everything Wei Ming has done."

Mu Xie’s remarks shocked Liu Er.

Liu Er held back his desire to chop Mu Xie's heart.

Bro, do you know what you are talking about.

Xie Zhiqiu's words aroused Shen Mei's interest.

"Little brother, what makes you say you can bring down Wei Ming?"

"Mu Xie..."

Liu Er was afraid that things would develop in an uncontrollable direction, so he shouted:

"Friend Shen, this is Mu Xie. He has just started working under the Left Protector. He is not very sensible, so please bear with me."

Unexpectedly, Xie Zhiqiu added: "My senior brother is the envoy of Mu Xi."

Liu Er even wanted to kill Mu Xie.

Unexpectedly, Shen Mei did not get angry but laughed: "You are Mu Xie."

"I won't hide it from you. Wei Ming has a lot of opinions about you."

"Yes, I caught the real He Huo and turned him into a clown."

Liu Er: Brother, everything I told you on the way here has been thrown away.

And this Shen Mei, was it too much of a shock because of her son’s death?

Wei Ming is his relative by marriage. What good will it do him if he dies?

Liu Er was afraid that if he continued to stay like this, he and Mu Xie would die.

He hurriedly dragged Mu Xie away to say goodbye.

"Brother Er, Brother Er, I haven't finished talking to Fellow Daoist Shen yet."

Xie Zhiqiu struggled and didn't want to leave, looking like he was determined to get to the bottom of the matter today.

Liu Er gritted his teeth and said, "We have urgent matters to attend to. We will come back another day."

Xie Zhiqiu also shouted to Shen Mei very politely:

"Friend Shen, I'll come see you another day."

"Mr. Shen is waiting for you."

Liu Er is going crazy.

The head of the Shen family came out from behind the screen, sat at the top, and asked:

"Mei'er, have you really thought about doing this?"

"Father, we all know what Wei Ming has done to us over the years. Now he is useless. What's the point of keeping a useless person around?"

With a "pop" sound, the teacup in Shen Mei's hand shattered into powder.

Patriarch Shen still had some concerns: "But, where is Yan'er..."

"Father, I don't want to live with Wei Ming anymore. You can do whatever you want. Don't worry about me."

A graceful woman appeared at the door and stood in front of the two men.

"Brother, you have done enough for me.

If Wei Ming dares to kill Yue Er today, he will dare to destroy the Shen family tomorrow. Such a disaster cannot be allowed to continue."

"Yan'er..."

Shen Mei looked at Shen Zhiyan with some guilt.

Liu Er dragged Xie Zhiqiu back with a dark face.

In the yard, he was scolded severely.

Xie Zhiqiu lowered his head and muttered in dissatisfaction:

"Shen Mei has agreed to tell me..."

Liu Er heard this and was furious:

"How dare you say that? Didn't you leave your ears with you?..."

Liu Yi came into the yard only after Liu Er had finished cursing.

"what happened?"

When he saw Liu Yi, Liu Er grabbed him and started to complain:

"Liu Yi, let me tell you..."

Xie Zhiqiu was about to sneak away, but was caught by Liu Er.

"Why are you running? It's not over yet."
