My Lady Is Not A Demon

Chapter 129 Murder in the Capital! (For subscription)

In the early morning of the next day, a ray of morning light penetrated through the window, and a bright color appeared on the thin window paper.

“It’s a fake bar, why does my head hurt so much.”

Chen Mu patted his somewhat dizzy head, and slowly opened his eyes, there was no longer a figure of the lady on the side of the bed.

After calling the capital, Bai Xianyu began to let him sleep on the bed.

The husband and wife are formally sharing the same bed.

Although it has not yet reached the stage of ‘frankly meeting’, for Chen Mu, it is already very gratifying.

I believe that after a while, he will be able to find out the depth of the other party.

Chen Mu turned over and sniffed the scent of the lady on the bed. It seemed that this could alleviate the uncomfortable a bit.

Last night, Leng Tianying, the head of the six doors, was the host and invited him to a banquet in the restaurant.

Basically, the officials from the six doors and some prestigious hunters all came to join in. Chen Mu also took Zhang Awei with him, and they knew each other first.

There was no unpleasant scene on the wine table.

Everyone is a man, and they start to call themselves brothers and sisters after three glasses of wine. In addition, Chen Mu himself is a half-hearted veteran driver, and his slurs aroused everyone’s joy, and the relationship became more harmonious.

But whether there is still cautious thinking hidden under the laughter, only one knows.

Some people have minds, there are contradictions when there are minds, and there are struggles when there are contradictions.

It depends on when it is on the bright side.

The banquet was over in the middle of the night.

When leaving the banquet, Zhang Awei was directly lying on the ground, and Chen Mu was also dangling and standing unsteadily under the toasts of the crowd.

Fortunately, there was a taxi driver in the middle of the night in the capital, and the two were able to go home smoothly.

“Brother-in-law, you are awake.”

Qingluo entered the house carrying lotus seed soup, her sweet and crisp voice was particularly greasy.

Today, the girl is wearing a tunic pink long skirt, which is a little more pure and pure than the quirky spirits of the past, which makes people shine.

“Where’s your sister.”

“In the front office, some accounts have to be settled.”

The girl put lotus seed soup on the table, poured a cup of tea to rinse her mouth, and handed it to the other party: “Come to brother-in-law.”

Chen Mu took the teacup and took a few sips with his head up.

“Hello–”

The girl quickly grabbed the teacup and saw that the tea had bottomed out, her beautiful apricot eyes stared at Chen Mu. “This is a mouthwash!”

“It doesn’t matter, no one can die.”

With a nonchalant tone, Chen Mu began to put on clothes.

Helpless, Qing Luo had to help him put on the official boots that he had received from six doors yesterday, and was busy preparing face wash and towels.

“Brother-in-law, is anyone bullying you in the six doors?”

Cheongna asked.

Chen Mu hehe smiled: “I hope I will be bullied the first day I go. It’s a pity that they are all old fried dough sticks, like a family.”

“That’s not good?”

“very bad.”

Chen Mu squeezed the girl’s delicate little Qiong’s nose and sighed, “There will be trouble in the future, but it doesn’t matter, just take it calmly.”

“Brother-in-law, should I help you?”

The girl leaned in front of Chen Mu, and the scent of orchid like musk pierced into the man’s breath.

The curled eyes overflowed with a touch of aura.

Chen Mu stared at her weirdly: “You help me? Help me serve tea and water? Go aside and stay at home.”

“Hmph, don’t appreciate it!” Qing Luo pursed her pink lips.

After washing and washing, Chen Mu drank the lotus seed soup made by the little girl and went to the front hall.

Bai Xianyu was still bowing his head to settle the accounts.

The woman’s expression is focused, and her sideburns have a few threads of hair hanging down softly, making her skin look like condensed fat.

Chen Mu had never seen what was in the ledger, it was nothing more than some recent family expenses, and he didn’t care.

“Husband.”

Seeing Chen Mu coming in, Bai Xianyu closed the ledger, and a faint smile appeared on the corners of her lips, just like a green lotus blooming in early summer.Chen Mu was dumbfounded for a while, and blurted out: “Lady, you are so beautiful.”

The woman was startled, her soft white cheeks showed a faint redness, and she gave the other side a pale glance: “No matter how beautiful it is, it can’t be enough for a husband to step on two boats.”

A pun.

Chen Mu pretended to ignore another meaning, and said with a wry smile: “No way, I can’t bother the queen mother and the emperor, so I can just please both sides.”

“Are you sure you can please both ends?”

The white silk feather narrowed the phoenix eyes.

Chen Mu sat on the chair and held her hand: “Lady, don’t worry, although the behavior is shameless, at least the problem is resolved. Let the queen mother and the emperor get the rest of the headache. Anyway, I am an innocent victim.”

Watching her husband’s rogue behavior, Bai Xianyu Didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

This husband, what he does is really unexpected.

She remembered the comment given by the Queen Mother yesterday: “Xiao Yu’er, the Ai family has never seen such a brazen person.”

This was a curse, but it made Bai Xianyu quite happy at the time.

It shows that Chen Mu’s rogue behavior left some deep impressions on the Queen Mother, even if it is a negative impression, it is a good thing.

“Are the six doors okay?” Bai Xianyu changed the subject.

“It’s okay. It’s not the same as I thought. I thought it would be more difficult for the Demon Squad Division, but now it seems that the Xuantian Department of the Demon Squad Division is not worried.”

Chen Mu rubbed his eyebrows.

Bai Xianyu frowned: “Actually, the queen mother asked you to go to the Xuantian Department of the Suppression Demon Division, and the concubine body can’t figure it out…”

“You are a woman, what the Daoist family would like to do.”

Chen Mu said speechlessly, “Moreover, the queen mother obviously doesn’t value me very much, she just wants me to kneel and lick me by just giving a little dessert, she looks down on me too much.”

Seeing her husband’s indignation, Bai Xianyu pursed her lips and chuckles.

But she did not agree with her husband’s point of view.

Any layout of the Queen Mother is profound, even if Chen Mu is just a small pawn in the eyes of the opponent.

After breakfast, Chen Mu took a shark tooth knife and went to work at six doors.

There is no need to go to work in the Black Tortoise Department of the Town Demon Division. It is enough to take a stroll in the free time, but the six doors cannot be perfunctory.

After Chen Mu left, Qing Luo was puzzled: “Sister, why don’t you help brother-in-law behind?”

Bai Xianyu smiled bitterly: “Some things can be helped, and some cannot be helped. If it helps, I am afraid that my husband will really not be able to stay in the capital. Now I need my husband to stand firm on my own so that I can have some room for bargaining on the Queen Mother’s side. .”

“I don’t understand.” Qing Luo shook her head.

“There is no need to understand, I believe my husband will not let me down, he is a rascal.” The woman’s eyes were bright, and there seemed to be a trace of condemnation in her smile.

Rogue?

Brother-in-law is not a rascal.

The girl thought to herself, and then asked: “Then when did the queen mother tell you to return to the Vermillion Bird hall?”

“Wait, don’t worry.”

Bai Xianyu lifted the lid and took a sip of fragrant tea, and slowly swallowed it. “In the past few days, the memorial to impeach me has been piled up on the Queen Mother’s table.”

“so many?”

“Actually, many memorials to impeach me were instructed by the Queen Mother in secret.” Bai Xianyu smiled slightly.

“Why.”

Bai Xianyu didn’t explain too much, and said lightly: “But there are some officials who really don’t want me to come back.”

Qing Luo snorted coldly: “It seems they are scared.”

“Are you afraid?”

A faint glow appeared in Baixianyu’s eyes, “If you are afraid, how dare you jump like this. It seems that I have disappeared for more than half a year. Some people really think that Vermillion Bird has become a magpie.”

She picked up the ledger on the table and threw it to Qingluo.

“Give the list I ticked out in it to Heiling, let her write it down first, and when they are almost jumping, we will settle the accounts one by one!”

…

On the wide street, Chen Mu walked slowly.

Originally, I went to work with Zhang Awei, but the spirit of the liquor hasn’t dissipated, so I simply took a day off.

Anyway, I’m an official now, so it doesn’t matter to give some privileges to his subordinates.

At present, the most important thing is to establish prestige.

Yesterday, the banquet seemed to be for him, but a closer look will reveal some interesting details.

For example, many cadres in the foreign government are obedient to Leng Tianying.

Of course, Leng Tianying is the head catcher, he should be obeyed, but in Chen Mu’s eyes, those people are completely attached to each other.

When they took turns to drink alcohol, they obviously didn’t consider Chen Mu as their real boss.

As if waiting to see Chen Muguan’s joke lying on the ground.

Is Leng Tianying demonstrating?

Or are they unaware that the person being filled with alcohol is their boss?

Maybe both.

In any case, if Chen Mu wants to gain a foothold in the six doors and get the full cooperation of his subordinates when handling cases in the future, he must establish sufficient prestige.

As for the Xuantian Department of the Sword Demon Division, it was much simpler than he expected.

The bureaucracy there is not heavy, especially after he showed his forty-meter sword yesterday, many people came to visit him.

Just like what Wenmingren said, if you have the strength, you can build a foothold in the Xuantian Department.

boom!

Just thinking about it, suddenly there was a muffled pain in my head.

Immediately after that, a rough short stick ‘Kang Dang’ landed on the ground and rolled several times before stopping in front of a step.

“Fuck! Who throws things around!”

Chen Mu guarded his head and stepped back.

At the same time, there was a soft cry from upstairs.

Chen Mu raised his head subconsciously, and what he saw was a charming cheek with bright eyes and white teeth, his face was full of surprise at the moment.

The woman held the window sash with one hand, and lightly covered her lips with the other jade hand.

Judging from the look of astonishment and shame, he should have accidentally dropped the short stick while supporting the window sash.

As a result, he accidentally hit Chen Mu, who was walking on the street.

Before Chen Mu came back to her senses, the woman hurriedly went downstairs, hurried out of the room carrying her skirt, and hurriedly apologized to Chen Mu.

“I’m sorry, the slave family didn’t mean it, I’m sorry…”

The woman in front of him is no more than twenty.

The face is exquisite, a pair of thin teary eyes are very graceful, and the slender figure is quite smooth under a pink coat.

Even Chen Mu, who was used to seeing his wife’s beauty, couldn’t help but be surprised.

“Sorry to the official, the Nujia slipped his hand just now and accidentally hit the official. I’m really sorry…”

The woman clenched her dress tightly, her fingers white.

This nervous and pitiful appearance adds a touch of weak charm and tempting pity.

“fine.”

Seeing the sincere apology of the other party, Chen Mu also put out his anger.

Pick up the short stick and pass it to the opponent.

“Be careful in the future. It’s okay to hit young and middle-aged people like me, but if you hit flowers, plants, or old people and children, it will be troublesome.”

“The master’s lesson is that the slave family will pay attention to it in the future.”

The woman’s face flushed, and she took the short club.

When receiving the short baton, a piece of the woman’s cheating Saixue’s arm slipped out of her sleeve, and several scars fell in Chen Mu’s eyes.

It seems to have been beaten with a rope whip.

The woman apologized a few more times, and went into the house, with the door closed tightly.

Domestic violence?

Chen Mu stared at the closed door, frowning slightly.

“Master Chen?”

A voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Chen Mu turned around, but saw an old woman sitting at the entrance of the teahouse opposite, staring at him with a smile.

The old woman was about half a hundred years old, and she was a little bit crooked.

The shriveled face is densely covered with spider prints, and the mottled gray hair on the top of the head is relatively sparse, but the spirit is quite vigorous.

Especially those eyes are especially bright.

“you know me?”

Chen Mu looked strangely at the old woman who seemed a little familiar.

The old woman chuckled, “Last night at Xingchun Tower, I saw Master Leng drinking with you, so I went to say hello. At that time, Master Leng introduced you to me. Did you forget?”

“You are… that… that…”When the other party said this, Chen Mu remembered that an old woman had indeed come to the wine table last night, and Leng Tianying also introduced her.

“You seem to be called Wang Po, right?”

Chen Mu knocked his head for a long time, and finally remembered.

This old woman called the “Wang Po” has been in this neighborhood for some years.

Not only does he operate a time-honored teahouse, but he also serves as a “matchmaker” and a “midwife”, which is quite famous.

Leng Tianying also delivered her baby when she was born, so the two people know each other.

Leng Tianying talked about this at the wine table last night.

“Master Chen still has a good memory, my old lady is indeed surnamed “Wang”.”

“Excuse me, I was a little confused when I drank it last night. I didn’t recognize your old man for a while.”

Chen Mu apologized for cupped hands.

Being able to have a good relationship with Leng Tianying shows that this old lady’s reputation is indeed very high, and she may have contact in the future.

“Is this your teahouse?”

Chen Mu looked at the shop behind the old woman and asked.

Wang Po smiled and nodded: “That’s right, it’s my old lady. If Master Chen is free, he often comes to sit and sit.”

“sure.”

Chen Mu fully agreed.

The two chatted a few more words at random, and Chen Mu was about to say goodbye. When he left, he was curious and couldn’t help but ask:

“Wang Po, who was that woman just now?”

“She, her name is Yinlian.” Wang Po said with a smile: “It’s Hong Dalang’s new wife.”

Hong Dalang?

Hearing this, Chen Mu frowned slightly.

It sounds like a name that is about to drink medicine.

Wang Po explained: “Hong Dalang is much older than you. He often sells his steamed buns in the downtown area of ​​the southern district. The business is quite good. Although he is honest and friendly, the foreign minister is a bit shabby and he has a hump… ”

Humpback?

Are you sure it’s not a short winter melon?

Are you sure there is no brother who can fight tigers?

Chen Mu secretly complained.

“This daughter-in-law, he married only a month ago. She seems to be a girl in the brothel. It is estimated that Da Lang bought her for a lot of money.”

Wang Po lowered her voice, “Don’t think he is just a bun seller, but the family property that he has saved over the years, buying a beautiful daughter-in-law, is really not a big deal…”

Listening to the old woman’s babbling non-stop, Chen Mu was a little speechless.

It seems that this old lady likes to talk about Eight Trigrams.

Chen Mu had to bite the bullet and interrupted her: “I’m sorry Wang Po, I have to go to the Yamen, so I will leave first, and let’s talk slowly in the next day.”

“Well, that old lady, I won’t waste your time.”

Wang Po said disappointedly, as if she was still in the mood. It is estimated that if Chen Mu hadn’t taken the initiative to interrupt her, she would have been able to say three or four hours without breathing.

Just when Chen Mu was about to leave, Po Wang suddenly asked, “Master Chen has an idea?

“what?”

Chen Mu froze for a moment, but didn’t react.

Wang Po smiled and said, “Old lady, I’m right, this girl is unruly. If an adult has an idea, the old lady is willing to make a line.”

Although it was a joke, there was a trace of playfulness in his eyes.

Chen Mu Didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “Wang Po, you can’t make a joke.”

The beauty of her own family can’t handle it, where can she still have the energy to tease the wild flowers outside.

“Chen Catou is a serious person.”

Wang Po smiled, and said nothing.

Chen Mu frowned, always feeling that there was something in Wang Po’s words, and wanted to ask two more questions, but the other party entered the house and had to give up.

…

When he came to six doors, he saw a team of catchers hurried out, with a grim expression.

“grown ups!”

Secretary Li Tang ran to Chen Mu and whispered, “There has been a case, and it is still a murder case.”
