Great Xuanwu Sheng

Chapter 98 Choice

 Chen Mu watched Zhang Heng leave, took a deep look at his back, and then turned his eyes to Xu Hongyu, and gently held his hand towards Xu Hongyu.

 “Thank you, sir, for the rescue.”

Looking at Xu Hongyu gently and unobtrusively, she saw that although she was wearing plain clothes and was dusty and had not had time to rest, her complexion was like white jade and her pretty face without makeup was still as cool and gorgeous as before.

Xu Hongyu also kept watching Zhang Heng leave with cold eyes, and then turned to look at Chen Mu. Her eyes softened a lot, and she nodded slightly and said: "He Mingxuan was attacked and died last night, and you were only implicated in this matter. Don’t worry too much, this matter has nothing to do with the Yu family, and we won’t let the He family act recklessly.”

No.

　　　It is not that you have been implicated, the murderer is right in front of you, sir.

The thought flashed through Chen Mu's mind: "That batch of goods last night was in the back yard. Zhang Heng should have come here to get the goods back. Mr. Xu will see what to do with them."

Xu Hongyu shook her head and said: "This is all a trivial matter. Just send someone to **** me to the chief executive. I just want to go to the chief executive to rest. You should come with me to prevent anyone from the He family from attacking you again."

"good."

Chen Mu immediately waved his hand and ordered Shang Qinglai and others to deal with the **** carriage.

Shang Qinglai and others had long been sweating due to the series of changes. Now they obeyed the order and hurriedly retreated. Only Xu Hongyu, Xiao He and Chen Mu were left in the hall.

At this time, Xiao He finally looked at Chen Mu and greeted: "It seems that you are fine? After I suddenly got the news last night, I immediately sent an emergency message to the lady. I was worried that the He family would jump over the wall in a hurry, but the lady rushed all the way back."

 “I’m okay, Mr. Xu came in time.”

Chen Mu smiled.

Xiao He sighed and said: "I'm just worried that if it's too late, things will be irreversible. The He family took this opportunity to have an attack, and I'm afraid the young lady will be affected. Originally, after returning to the city, the young lady might be promoted. This time There is a high probability that he will be transferred to some Qingshui Yamen, and he may not be able to stay in Nancheng District."

　　At this point, she couldn't help but peek at Chen Mu, but when she saw that Chen Mu's expression was as usual, she couldn't help but shake her head slightly.

Although there was very little information, she still knew that this time He Mingxuan died at the hands of a person who mastered Zhen Lei's artistic conception.

Thundering mood?

 The relationship with Chen Mu is incompatible.

The biggest possibility of Chen Mu is to understand the artistic conception of the wind, and it is just possible, but some clues point to Chen Mu, and more of her own conjecture.

She didn't even say much about this to Xu Hongyu, because He Mingxuan's death in the thunderous mood obviously had nothing to do with Chen Mu. At this time, the situation was already very confusing, and there was no need to think about other things.

 “It seems that this person’s death has quite a big impact.”

Chen Mu looked at Xiao He and then turned his attention to Xu Hongyu.

A slight apology arose in his heart. After all, he felt refreshed after killing someone, but he asked Xu Hongyu to carry half of the pot for him, but it didn't matter. From now on, he would not divide the pot.

And he estimated that Xu Hongyu was mostly happy with He Mingxuan's death.

 Sure enough.

Xu Hongyu said in a casual manner: "That person will die if he dies. Because of the despicable behavior of the He family, I have wanted to kill him with my sword several times before. Now I don't need to deal with this person anymore... As for promotion to official position In today's world, strength is valued and martial arts is the foundation. If you transfer me to Qingshui Yamen, it will be a good time for me to practice quietly for a while."

 Power and force, which one is more important, depends on the prosperity or decline of the imperial court.

During the heyday of the Daxuan Dynasty, everyone was convinced, and almost all the top military forces were in the hands of the imperial court. The legendary "Blood-clothed Guards" and "Tianlong Guards" made the whole world frightened. Those who have entered the Zang-Fu Realm and dare to act recklessly in Daxuan and violate the law will be hunted down by the court for thousands of miles.

At that time, power was greater than strength. A court official or even a local county magistrate, even if he had little strength, had no warriors but dared to cause trouble.

Now?

 Let alone a person who can easily forge his muscles and bones, even if he sharpens his skin and muscles, he can cause wanton chaos.

 The various government offices in Yucheng, ranging from the Demon Slayer Department, which is respected for its strength, to the Handyman Department, which is responsible for various trivial matters, as well as the various Salt Affairs Departments, Smelting Departments, etc., are now almost all about strength.

As long as you enter the Yijin Realm, you will definitely be able to become the Deputy Chief Chasi or even the Chief Chasi. As long as you enter the Bone Forging Realm, it will be easy to serve as the Deputy Chief, and it will not be difficult even to be appointed as the Zhengdu.

Therefore, Xu Hongyu had no interest in being promoted. Instead of letting the Yu family push her based on her merits and background, she might as well practice quietly for a period of time and practice to the point of perfect Yijin, then she would naturally be able to rise to the top based on her strength.

and.

The death of He Mingxuan did make her very happy. She happened to be tired of the official position of Chief Commissioner for a long time. It was just in her heart to abandon it while taking advantage of this matter. Moreover, the Yu family could only take a small step back this time. Although the position of Chief Police Officer was given up, the position of Deputy Chief Police Officer left behind after He Mingxuan's death would definitely fall into the hands of the Yu family. Having said this, Xu Hongyu suddenly turned to look at Chen Mu and looked up and down carefully.

Just when Chen Mu felt a little strange.

I heard Xu Hongyu say: "I will most likely leave the post of Chief Police Officer this time. Maybe someone from the He family will take over, but He Mingxuan's death has also vacated the position of Deputy Chief Police Officer. If you are willing, I can propose it." You go up, I heard from Xiao He that your strength should be enough... But I have another option here, which is to give up this official position and follow me to the inner city for a while."

Hearing Xu Hongyu’s words, Chen Mu understood that Xu Hongyu was already thinking about his future affairs.

In Xu Hongyu's view, as soon as she left, the post of Nancheng District Chief Police Officer would fall into the hands of the He family. It was obviously not feasible for Chen Mu to stay in Wutong as a police officer. The situation would be increasingly difficult, even if someone from the Yu family took over. The deputy chief police officer may not be able to protect him.

Unless Chen Mu is allowed to take over the position of deputy chief commissioner, Chen Mu can compete with Chen Mu's methods and strength, but in Xu Hongyu's consideration, it is not the best choice.

After all, from what she saw, what Chen Mu needed now was to meditate for a period of time, to concentrate on hitting the realm of Yi Jin. Once it was passed, there would be a difference between heaven and earth, and it was not suitable to spread his energy to the He family. On top of fighting.

 The hall fell into a brief silence.

Xiao He didn't say anything and just looked at Chen Mu quietly, but she knew that Chen Mu must have only one choice.

 “Always obey the instructions of the adults.”

 Chen Mu didn't think much before he gently cupped his hand at Xu Hongyu.

Xiaohe pursed her lips and smiled, looked at Xu Hongyu and said, "Look, miss, I will say that he is not a person who is greedy for power."

On the way Xu Hongyu came, she had already analyzed various things and told Xu Hongyu one by one, including Chen Mu's follow-up placement. She also made several suggestions, suggesting that Xu Hongyu directly place Chen Mu in the inner city. a period of time.

Xu Hongyu thought about it, but decided to let Chen Mu make his own choice. In her opinion, there are many men who like power, and it is normal. Chen Mu has achieved the position of Chaoshi all the way, maybe he hopes to go further, rather than give up power. Go on an inner city retreat.

 Looking at Chen Mu's reaction, Xu Hongyu was slightly startled.

Then he turned to look at Xiao He, and saw that Xiao He was still smiling softly, so he reached out and grabbed Xiao He's cheek, gently pulled it twice, and said: "Forget it...you...said...right..."

The voice was still cold, but the pursed red lips were slightly raised, as if a corner of the cold winter had melted away. Even though it was such an insignificant point, it was a completely different scenery.

It turns out she can laugh too.

Chen Mu admired this scene. This seemed to be the first time he had seen it, although it was almost too faint to be seen.

“Oops, it hurts, miss, I was wrong...”

Xiaohe was being pulled on the face, but she didn't dare to resist. She looked at Xu Hongyu pitifully.

Xu Hongyu saw this and let go of his hand angrily. Xiao He was also a person in the Yijin realm after all, so it hurt to pinch his face twice. Then he suddenly realized that there was Chen Mu next to him.

This time Chen Mu saw that she, the chief police officer, had no majestic behavior.

 “Let’s go.”

 Xu Hongyu's face flashed slightly unnaturally, but she quickly returned to her calm and normal expression, spoke calmly, and then walked out.

Xiao He rubbed her cheeks, looked at Xu Hongyu who turned to leave, covered her mouth and snickered, then looked at Chen Mu and said, "Let's go, Miss will go to the Demon Slayer Division to report on her duties later."

Xu Hongyu would occasionally show some unworthy behavior only when she and she were alone.

In fact, she knew that it was not Xu Hongyu's temperament like this. Xu Hongyu would play with her and laugh with her when she was a child. However, starting from the year Xu Hongyu's father Xu Yichuan disappeared, Xu Hongyu gradually lost her smile and became cold and cold. He got up and acted more decisively and resolutely.

She knew that Xu Hongyu wanted to find out the truth about Xu Yichuan's disappearance, but the entire Yu family could not find out. What could she, a ten-year-old girl at that time, do? She could only practice swordsmanship and martial arts, day after day. .

Only by constantly climbing the martial arts path and getting higher step by step can we have opportunities and possibilities.

and.

Xu Yichuan is gone. Although she is still a direct descendant of the Yu family, she can only rely on herself for everything from now on. Only by fighting, fighting and seizing can she gain a foothold. And her efforts will be useful in the end. He is not as tall as Xu Yichuan, but among the fourth generation of the Yu family, he is also at the forefront, and is the first person in the women's college.

For this reason, in the women's courtyard of the Yu Family Martial Arts School, whether it is Yu Yun or Yu Ru, all the girls of the Yu Family respect Xu Hongyu, and no matter who they are, they will call them "Sister Hongyu."
