Great Xuanwu Sheng

Chapter 101 Resignation

"Finally, the south and north are where the Yu family's branches live, and the servants are basically here. You know the Yu family's martial arts academy, which is on the north side... By the way, your sister is living with Xiaoru now. You You should know, right?”

Xiao He looked at Chen Mu as he spoke.

Chen Mu smiled and said, "Well, they have a very good relationship."

 Chen Yue lived directly in the Wuyuan at first. Later, his relationship with Yu Ru became better and better, so he went to live directly at Yu Ru's house and slept with Yu Ru. He had also told Chen Mu before.

Yu Ru is a direct descendant of the Yu family. Chen Yue and Yu Ru get along like sisters. Chen Mu was happy to see her before. After all, with the relationship between Chen Yue and Yu Ru, even if he suddenly left Yu City one day, Chen Yue would still be there. Can stay in the Yu family.

Unknowingly, this girl Yue'er has actually gained some ability to stand on her own feet.

 “Sister Xiaoru just has a weak temper.”

 Xiaohe said softly.

Chen Mu didn't seem to have much thoughts about Yu Ru, but after Yu Ru came to the outer city last time, she seemed to have some thoughts about Chen Mu. Xu Hongyu originally wanted to arrange the marriage between Chen Mu and Yu Ru, but now the situation But there is a slight change.

The main reason is that Chen Mu is a very deep person and rarely reveals his thoughts, so Xiao He can't tell what Chen Mu is thinking now, but if she can't tell, she won't guess, because she knows what Chen Mu does. He behaves in a measured manner and never does anything arrogant. In this world, the strong have always been respected. If Chen Mu had enough ability and a shocking talent, not to mention Yu Ru, even Xu Hongyu, and even the sisters …The Yu family won’t stand in the slightest way.

And if Chen Muruo really likes Xu Hongyu...

Xiao He couldn't help but steal a glance at Chen Mu. Anyway, she would definitely follow the young lady forever in her life.

  After a while.

Xiao He led Chen Mu to a courtyard to the south of Yu's house and found an old housekeeper who was about sixty or seventy years old, wearing housekeeper's clothes and with white temples.

“It’s Xiaohe...I heard that the lady is back?”

 The old housekeeper looked at Xiao He and smiled kindly.

Xiao He said in a cute voice: "Well, the lady has gone to the City Guards Department and will be back later. By the way, Grandpa Yu, this is Chen Mu, who came back with the lady. The lady asked if there is any suitable empty yard. "

“There should be some empty courtyards. Let me go and ask.”

The old housekeeper said with a smile and walked out with his hands behind his back.

Xiao He turned to look at Chen Mu and whispered: "This is Mr. Yu. The head of the old family brought him back when he was very young. He asked him to follow the surname Yu. When he was young, he entered the bone forging realm. Now he is nearly 20 years old. I am seventy years old and no longer care about outside affairs. I am only responsible for various trivial matters of the Yu family and the personnel affairs of the servants."

Chen Mu nodded slightly.

After all, the Bone Forging Realm is not the Five Zang Realm. He is nearly seventy years old, and his Qi and blood have basically deteriorated greatly. I am afraid that only 20-30% of the strength that can be exerted now is still there, and he may not be able to defeat the young Yi Jin Wanwan. .

But after all, he is a person who has entered the Bone Forging Realm. Even if he gets older, his status will still be different. From Xiao He's description, he is basically the "big housekeeper" of the Yu family, except for the Yu family's family affairs. , everything else is governed by it.

  After a while.

Mr. Yu returned with his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "There is an empty courtyard with two entrances in the north. It is quite suitable. It is also close to the martial arts academy. My sister can live there with you. I have asked people to decorate it later. You can go there."

 “It’s troublesome for me.”

 Chen Mu raised his hands towards Mr. Yu.

Mr. Yu said with a kind face: "Xiao He, please take him there. You should know where he is in the third room of Huaixiang in the north. If you need anything else, just come to me."

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Mu one more time and nodded slightly in his heart.

Putting aside everything else, his behavior is calm and well-behaved. There is nothing to criticize at this age. His talent and qualifications, since Xu Hongyu has taken a fancy to them and even brought them back to the Yu family's residence, they must be quite good, and he has also had some skills before. Hear.

If Chen Mu can enter the realm of Yijin in the past two years, then there will be no problem in reaching the perfection of Yijin when he reaches his peak in the future. Coupled with a body that is extremely talented in horizontal training, he will be able to compete with ordinary bone forging realms. Can barely fight.

　　It is indeed a talent worth recruiting.

If there is a chance to understand the artistic conception, or to step into the bone forging...then it can become an important force of the Yu family, but both of them are very difficult.

“Thank you, Grandpa Yu. I’ll bring you wine next time.”

Xiaohe smiled sweetly at Mr. Yu.

Yu Lao waved his hand and said: "I am too old to drink good wine. Drinking will cause trouble..."

 “You live a long life, you are not old at all.”

Xiao He said with a smile, and then took Chen Mu out, leaving Mr. Yu laughing and shaking his head.

 …

soon.

Xiao He led Chen Mu to a courtyard that had been cleaned.

The courtyard is located to the north of the Yu Family Martial Arts Courtyard. There are two small courtyards at the front and back. It is one size smaller than the three-in-three-room courtyard where Chen Mu lived in Wutong. However, this is the inner city, and it belongs to the Yu Family. In fact, there are not many people in the Yu family who can live alone in the courtyard. They are all people of some status.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Chen Mu walked into the yard and took a look around, then smiled at Xiao He.

Xiao He chuckled and said: "What's the hard work for me as a maid? If you break through to the Yijin Realm earlier, you can help the lady more. The lady and I should stay here for a while. Inner city.”

  "Okay."   Chen Mu smiled.

 Actually, he has already become a master of physical exercise, but a period of quiet practice is just what he likes.

Xiao He quickly waved his hand, and then left the yard, leaving Chen Mu alone. He walked into the bedroom. The bedroom was also cleaned and the bedding was laid out, but there were no other servants or maids in the whole yard.

“The two-door courtyard is a bit small, but I only have three maids around me and not many servants, so it’s just right to bring them here. Well...the one on the east side is reserved for Yue’er.”

 Chen Mu thought briefly.

 At present, he always carries the most valuable Zhenlei Diagram close to his body, but the other silver taels and gold leaves are still at home and need to be brought over tomorrow, but there is not much else.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark outside, Chen Mu thought for a while and stopped lighting up the lamp to study the thunder map. Instead, he took an early rest and waited until early the next morning before leaving the inner city and returning to Wutong.

 The City Guard acted very quickly.

Someone went to the City Guards Department early in the morning and read out the order that Chen Mu would no longer serve as the Wutongli City Guards Department. Everyone in the Wutongli City Guards Department was shocked because yesterday's conflict was clearly resolved by Xu Hongyu, but Chen Mu did not expect that Mu still failed to retain his position as a chaplain and was dismissed from his official position.

Many officers sighed. Although Chen Mu made several big moves in the few months after he came to Wutong, they, the low-level officers, got a lot of benefits every time. Moreover, after Chen Mu came, all the salary and silver were paid out in full, and they were never cheated. Skip the slightest bit.

 “In this world, it is difficult to be a good official.”

 Some old police officers couldn't help but sigh.

　　It is rare that a good police officer came to Wutong, but he did not even complete his term for a year.

As for Shang Qinglai and the others, they were all secretly glad that the incident did not involve them at last.

Being involved in the vortex of the struggle between the He and Yu families is not a good thing. The key this time is that He Mingxuan's death came too suddenly. Chen Mu most likely became the victim to pay the price for He Mingxuan's death.

This time he leaves office, his future is likely to be uncertain.

 Word spreads quickly.

The news of Chen Mu's resignation only took a while, and it basically spread to all parts of Wutong.

Just when Chen Mu returned home and asked Wang Ni, Ku'er Le'er and others to tidy up the house one by one, load the carriages one by one, and prepare to leave, a large group of people gradually gathered outside the yard.

Most of them are victims who were rescued by Chen Mu during the New Year's Snowstorm.

 “Lord Chaosi!”

 “Lord Chaosi…”

 Chen Mu came outside the courtyard and looked at the people gathered. He saw a crowd of young and old kneeling down and saluting him. Some people even shed tears. How pitiful it was that after so many years in Wutong, it was not easy to find a good official.

"Everyone, please get up. I am no longer the police officer in Wutong. The new one should arrive in two days."

 Chen Mu looked at the scene in front of him and sighed a little in his heart, and spoke aloud.

 But no one got up for a while.

 Chen Mu shook his head slightly and sighed softly in his heart. In fact, he was not a saint. Just like this time, in order to have a more stable environment for himself, he gave up his position as a messenger.

So far, everything he has done in his tenure as Wutongli Chasi is just within his scope of work.

only.

In today's world, there are not many people who are willing to do their part.

The City Guard has become nothing more than a place to make money, a place to exploit the people's wealth and support, and colludes with local gangs and powerful forces. Situations like this are common.

Compared with this, he is an upright official who has been rare to see in many years in the eyes of the common people.

 After a long sigh.

Chen Mu waved his hand and signaled the carriage to move forward.

Several old servants looked at the people kneeling on the ground, almost all men, women and children. They all sighed in their hearts, but they all silently obeyed Chen Mu's order and drove the carriage slowly out of the alley.

Wang Ni followed Chen Mu, looking at the kneeling figures behind her with a glimmer of light in her eyes, while Ku'er and Le'er followed ignorantly and slowly walked out.

finally.

 Chen Mu and the carriage gradually came to the end of the alley.

The numerous kneeling people in the rear, with their mended clothes all standing up silently, followed all the way forward. There were more and more people along the way, gradually numbering in the thousands.

 I have been in Jiutiao for many years and no one has asked me.

 Once in Wutong, the people will see each other off!

Finally, after crossing the boundary of Wutongli, the number of people gradually decreased. Finally, only a few maids such as Chen Mu and Wang Ni were left, as well as the carriages held by the servants. They arrived at the gate of the inner city and finally entered the inner city. , disappeared into the inner city.
