Chapter 126 The Capital Murder Case!(1/3)
The next morning, a hint of morning light penetrated through the window, and a hint of bright color appeared on the thin window paper.
"I'm drinking a fake bar, why is my head hurting so much?"
Chen Mu patted his dizzy head and slowly opened his eyes. The figure of his wife had long disappeared from the edge of the bed.
Since he came to the capital, Bai Xianyu began to let him sleep on the bed.
The couple officially shared a bed with pillow.
Although it has not reached the point of "faithful meeting", Chen Mu is already very relieved.
I believe that in no time, he will be able to find out the depth of the other party.
Chen Mu turned over and sniffed the remaining fragrance of the lady on the bed, as if this would relieve some of the discomfort.
Last night, Leng Tianying, the chief constable of Liushemen, hosted him in a banquet at the restaurant.
Basically, the officials and some famous constables from the Six Gates came to support each other, and Chen Mu also brought Zhang Awei with him, which was considered to be the first to get to know each other.
The table was full of joy and there were no unpleasant scenes.
Everyone is a man, and they basically start calling each other brothers after three glasses of wine, and keep making dirty jokes. In addition, Chen Mu himself is a half-baked veteran driver, and his dirty words made everyone happy and the relationship became more harmonious.
But only I know whether there are still little thoughts hidden under the laughter and joy.
Some people have thoughts, and there are conflicts, and there are conflicts.
It depends on when it is on the surface.
It was midnight when the banquet ended.
When leaving the banquet, Zhang Awei was directly poured on the ground, and Chen Mu was also swaying under the crowd toasts, unable to stand firmly.
Fortunately, there was a car rental driver in the middle of the night in Beijing, so the two were able to go home smoothly.
"Brother-in-law, you're awake."
Qingluo entered the house with lotus seed soup, and her sweet and crisp voice was particularly greasy.
The girl is wearing a long trouser waist dress today. Compared to the quirky past, she is a little more pure and eye-catching.
"Where is your sister."
"In the front hall, some accounts need to be settled."
The girl put the lotus seed soup on the table, poured a cup of tea for rinsing her mouth, and handed it to the other party: "Brother-in-law."
Chen Mu took the teacup, raised his head and took a few sips.
“Hey hey—”
The girl quickly grabbed the teacup and saw that the tea was already bottoming out. Her beautiful apricot eyes glared at Chen Mu. "This is for rinsing her mouth!"
"It doesn't matter, no one can die."
Chen Mu started to wear clothes with an indifferent tone.
Qingluo had no choice but to help him put on the official boots he had received from the Six Doors yesterday, and then prepared water and towels for washing his face.
"Brother-in-law, is anyone bullying you in the six doors?"
Qingluo asked.
Chen Mu smiled: "I hope I will be bullied on the first day of my trip. Unfortunately, they are all old foxes, and they are so close to their family."
"That's not good?"
“It’s not good.”
Chen Mu pinched the girl's delicate little Qiong's nose and sighed, "There will be troublesome in the future, but it doesn't matter, just keep it calm."
"Brother-in-law, why don't I help you?"
The girl came to Chen Mu, and the faint fragrance of orchids and musk penetrated into the man's breath.
A touch of spiritual charm overflowed in the curved eyes.
Chen Mu stared at her with a weird look: "You help me? I can bring tea and water? Go quickly and stay at home."
"Hmph, I don't appreciate it!" Qingluo poked her pink lips.
After washing, Chen Mu drank the lotus seed soup made by the little girl and came to the front hall.
Bai Xianyu was still bowing his head to settle the account book.
The woman's expression was focused, and the hair on her temples was soft and drooping, making her skin look like cream.
Chen Mu had never seen what was in the account book, it was nothing more than some of the family's expenses recently and he didn't care about it.
"Husband."
Seeing Chen Mu come in, Bai Xianyu closed the account book, and Yingying smiled faintly at the corners of her lips, just like a green lotus blooming in early summer.
Chen Mu was stunned for a moment and blurted out: "Madam, you are so beautiful."
The woman was stunned, her tender white cheeks showed a faint blush, and her pretty eyes gave the other person a blank look: "No matter how beautiful it is, it can't stand two boats for my husband."
One pun.
Chen Mu pretended to ignore another meaning and smiled bitterly: "There is no way, I can't afford to offend the Queen Mother and the Emperor, so I might as well please both sides."
"Are you sure you can please both ends?"
Bai Xianyu narrowed her phoenix eyes.
Chen Mu sat on the chair and held her hand: "Don't worry, madam, although his behavior was a little shameless, at least he solved the problem. Let the rest give the queen mother and the emperor a headache. Anyway, I am an innocent victim."
Looking at her husband's rogue behavior, Bai Xianyu couldn't laugh or cry.
This husband is really unexpected.
She remembered a comment given by the Queen Mother yesterday: "Xiao Yuer, the Ai family has never seen such a shameless person."
This was a swear word, but Bai Xianyu was quite happy at that time.
This shows that Chen Mu's rogue behavior this time left some deep impression on the Empress Dowager, even if it was a negative impression, it was a good thing.
"Is the Liusanmen OK?" Bai Xianyu changed the subject.
"It's okay, it's different from what I thought. I thought the Demon Suppression Division would be more difficult, but now it seems that the Xuantian tribe of the Demon Suppression Division is not worried."
Chen Mu rubbed his eyebrows.
Bai Xianyu frowned: "Actually, the Empress Dowager asked you to go to the Xuantian tribe of the Demon Suppression Division, but I can't figure it out..."
"What do you want to do with this?"
Chen Mu said speechlessly, "And the empress dowager obviously doesn't value me much. She just gave me some dessert and wanted me to kneel down and lick me too much."
Looking at her husband's angry look, Bai Xianyu chuckled.
But she did not agree with her husband's point of view.
Any layout of the Empress Dowager is of profound meaning, even in the eyes of the other party, Chen Mu is just a small chess piece.
After breakfast, Chen Mu took the Shark Tooth Knife to go to work at Liushemen.
There is no need to go to work in the Xuanwu Department of the Demon Suppressing Department. Just take a walk around for free, but the six doors cannot be perfunctory.
After Chen Mu left, Qingluo said in confusion: "Sister, why don't you help your brother-in-law behind your back?"
Bai Xianyu smiled bitterly: "Some things can be helped, while others cannot. If you help, your husband may really not be able to stay in the capital. Now you need your husband to gain a foothold so that I can have some room for bargaining with the Queen Mother."
"I don't know very much." Qingluo shook her little head.
"There is no need to understand. I believe my husband will not disappoint me. He is a scoundrel." The woman's eyes were full, and there seemed to be a trace of condemnation in her smile.
A rogue?
My brother-in-law is not a scoundrel.
The girl thought to herself and asked, "Will the Queen Mother tell you when will you go back to Zhuque Hall?"
"Wait first, don't worry."
Bai Xianyu lifted the lid and took a small sip of fragrant tea, and swallowed it slowly. "The past two days, the memorials that impeached me have been piled up on the Empress Dowager's desk."
“So many?”
"Actually, many of the memorials that impeached me were secretly instructed by the Queen Mother." 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."
Qingluo snorted coldly: "It seems they are scared."
"Are you scared?"
A faint cold light appeared in Bai Xianyu's eyes, "If you are afraid, how dare you jump around like this? It seems that I have disappeared for more than half a year, and some people really think that the Vermilion Bird has become a magpies."
She picked up the account book on the table and threw it to Qingluo.
"Leave the list I picked out from inside to Heiling and ask her to record it first. When they are almost done, they will settle the score one by one!"
