Chapter 115 Prepare a coffin for her husband?(1/2)
After careful search by the Nether Guard and the Yabo runners, Chen Mu was finally found.
On a small mound on the south side of the grave, Chen Mu was found in a coma and was sent to the yamen before he woke up.
"Where is the snake demon?"
The first face that caught my eyes after waking up was Xuanwu wearing a turtle and snake mask.
The sharp eyes were scrutinized like a sword.
Chen Mu smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know where they are."
He really doesn't know.
Boss Su knocked him out when he was about to leave, so Chen Mu had no idea where the cave was.
"I'll ask you why you want to leave with them."
Xuanwu asked in a cold voice.
Chen Mu spread his hands helplessly: "Master Xuanwu Envoy, do I have a choice in that situation at that time? I was kidnapped by the snake demon. If I don't cooperate, they will kill me. And weren't you trapped in the trap at that time? Do you dare not cooperate?"
As soon as these words came out, the temperature in the hall suddenly became cold.
Gao Yuanchun wiped the cold sweat and was secretly anxious: "Can you not talk well? What a whisper!"
Xuanwu narrowed his eyes and stared at Chen Mu meaningfully: "Do you think that if you break the Ju Chunlou case, you will get great contributions, and I will not kill you?"
"I dare not be a humble position, but a humble position is just telling the truth."
Chen Mu lowered his head.
Chen Mu is not stupid. Now that the Ju Chunlou case has been solved, the snake demon has been found by him, it can be said that he has completed the task successfully.
He lives up to the heavy responsibility of the tasks assigned by His Majesty.
And on the Empress Dowager's side, he also had messages that satisfies the other party.
As for the snake demon who ran away and didn't catch him, he couldn't blame him anymore. I can only blame you, the iron guards, for not having enough abilities.
So Chen Mu had reason and believed that the other party would not kill anyone.
"It's interesting."
Xuanwu's eyes suddenly became cold, and he reached out to pat Chen Mu's shoulder, and a trace of cold air was faintly lingering in his palm.
Just as my palm was about to fall, I suddenly saw a figure appearing at the door.
A woman in black robe stared at him with beautiful eyes.
Xuanwu paused his arm, gently brushed off half of the dead leaf on Chen Mu's shoulder, and asked, "Since that's the case, why did they let you go?"
My face still hurts, and I don’t want to be beaten by my second sister again.
"They just told me a secret about the case of Prince Raincao."
Chen Mu said honestly that Xuanwu's actions were puzzled.
Everyone changed their faces.
The purpose of the Mingwei coming to catch the snake demon was to make the case involving the current court dispute.
Otherwise, it would be enough to just send the Demon Suppression Division.
"What a secret!"
The person who spoke was the Suzaku at the door, and his voice was still as empty as a spring, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable and felt scared.
Chen Mu turned around and looked at the terrifying woman wearing the Suzaku mask.
For some reason, I always feel strange when I see this woman.
Feeling the bloody aura emitted from the other party's body, Chen Mu's body felt cold and a chill came, and his feet were sore and soft.
"Chen Mu..."
Seeing this guy staring at Suzaku, he didn't say anything, Gao Yuanchun couldn't help but call in a low voice and wink.
You can talk back a little to Xuanwu, but don’t be foolish in front of this female Rakshasa.
Chen Mu came back to his senses and realized that there was already moisture on his back. He lowered his head and said respectfully: "The snake demon told me that Concubine Xu gave birth to a human child, not a raccoon cat."
As soon as the words fell, it was like a huge rock falling into the sea, with a storm of waves.
"What you said is true!?"
The Vermillion Bird opened the phoenix's eyes and burst out with light.
A strong and extreme chill spread around with the Vermilion Bird as the center. His footsteps suddenly stepped forward and stared at Chen Mu.
The pupils, like ink stone, were surrounded by blood, which really deserved the title of Rakshasa female.
Everyone present felt depressed.
Chen Mu's heart pounded and he cursed in his heart: "You menopausal old woman is sick, are you? Are you scared?"
At this moment, he suddenly missed his wife extremely.
It's better for a wife, gentle and virtuous, and never faces him coldly, and always looks gentle and friendly.
Perhaps because he realized that he was impulsive and scared his husband, Bai Xianyu quickly restrained his breath and asked lightly: "Tell me everything you know."
Chen Mu immediately breathed a sigh of relief as his momentum eased.
He wiped the sweat from his temples with the back of his hand and said, "The snake demon just told me that Concubine Xu gave birth to a boy, but someone secretly replaced him with a raccoon. However, the child was a fool. He didn't cry or make a fuss after giving birth, as if he had no soul."
Fool?
Everyone looked at each other.
The Suzaku Envoy asked again: "Is it highly credible?"
Chen Mu smiled bitterly: "The snake demon also knew it from the cat demon. After all, they were imprisoned under the same mountain viewing dream back then. Is it very credible? It is difficult for me to make a judgment."
"Did she say who is behind the scenes?"
"No, the cat demon doesn't know." Chen Mu shook his head.
Bai Xianyu remained silent.
She still believed her husband's words, and there was no need for the other party to lie. The snake demon must have told him this.
She looked up at Xuanwu, and the two of them had eye contact.
Now, regardless of whether the snake demon said it is true or not, this alone is enough to satisfy the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager does not need personal or physical evidence. She only needs a rumor that seems real. As long as it is made good use of it, she can block the young emperor from taking power.
Among them, Chen Mu is definitely a key figure.
Thinking of this, the corners of the lips under the woman's mask were a little more curved. Bai Xianyu looked at her husband, her eyes softened: "Did the snake demon tell you anything else?"
"It's gone."
Chen Mu always lowered his head and did not dare to look into the other person's eyes.
I was afraid that the other party would see through something.
He did not intend to tell the Hong family case. Since the Mingwei had investigated it, it did not announce it, which shows that the case was very deep.
If you say it rashly, it will cause trouble again, so you can simply go to the capital and investigate slowly.
"I'm confused about one thing."
Xuanwu suddenly spoke, staring at Chen Mu with a faint look, "Why do the snake demon tell you this?"
"I don't know this. I guess they don't want to cause trouble anymore, so I borrowed my mouth to convey information to you. After all, I have seen my abilities, so I don't need to lie."
Chen Mu gave a vague answer.
Xuanwu snorted coldly and wanted to ask something else, but when he saw Bai Xianyu's eyes were alert, he had to hold it back into his stomach.
"Okay, you go back first."
Seeing her husband's dirty face, she must have been exhausted today. Bai Xianyu signaled the other party to go back and rest.
"Resignation from a humble position."
Chen Muru received a general amnesty and withdrew from the county hall hall.
He didn't want to face this female Rakshasa for a moment. He felt that his blood was not smooth when he stood in front of the other side, and he probably would have to suffer cerebral thrombosis.
"Grandmaster Gao, please go down too."
"The lower official surrenders."
After watching Gao Yuanchun leave, only Xuanwu and Zhuque are left in the hall.
"This kid must have concealed it."
Xuanwu said lightly.
Seeing that the second sister stared at him coldly, Xuanwu's body froze, coughed twice and said, "I didn't think about hurting him just now, just to scare him."
Bai Xianyu looked away: "The snake demon continued to search and sent the information to the Queen Mother. Husband... Chen Mu is a key figure, and you have seen his ability. The Queen Mother will definitely use him. You'd better not do stupid things."
To be continued...
