One of the female officers ran in front of Chen Mu and saw that although Chen Mu and Meng Qing were dusty and embarrassed, they were not injured.

Everyone looked at each other, and finally relaxed a little, they didn't know what had happened.

Seeing that the person returned safely, he led the person into the front hall and sat down, Chen Mu took the hot tea handed by a female official, moistened his throat, and then felt that his beating heart had settled down a little.

He shook his head helplessly, sighed, and smiled bitterly.

Seeing this, Meng Qing smiled and came to Chen Mu's side, she whispered.

"What I experienced today was really exciting."

Hearing what the other party said, Chen Mu was stunned, and then laughed helplessly.

Ordinary women have experienced everything that happened today, and they are afraid that they will be frightened, but Meng Qing still finds it interesting.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, what have you experienced today? I heard that the bandits on the mountain are all missing, is your disappearance related to the bandits? ”

A female officer stepped forward and asked.

When Chen Mu heard the female officer say this, he pondered for a moment and shook his head, but he didn't tell the female officers about those mountain bandits and the fact that he was arrested in the barracks.

The county magistrate knew about this, and he didn't tell the female officials about it, and they all wanted not to let those female officials get involved in this incident.

The stakes are so high this time that it even involves the forces of the capital, and the seriousness of the matter has already involved the felony of rebellion.

"It's some trouble, but now it's been resolved, this matter is related to the family in the capital, the forces behind it are complicated, and the seriousness of the matter is far beyond your imagination."

"Don't worry about it, it has nothing to do with you."

Seeing Chen Mu say this, the female officials were stunned, and then came back to their senses, and they immediately nodded and responded.

Since it was the order of His Royal Highness the Prince, they naturally did not dare to disobey, Chen Mu waved his hand to them, and the female officials retreated when they saw this, and sat in the hall for a while, and heard a burst of voices from outside the courtyard.

Chen Mu was stunned, turned his head to look outside the courtyard, and saw that the secret guard he sent had pressed the household lord to rush back to the women's protection mansion.

Chen Mu stood up immediately, and the head of the household was pressed to kneel in the courtyard.

He looked up and around in trepidation.

He woke up on the way to the Protector's Mansion by the guards, and he tried to scream, but he couldn't make a sound with a towel in his mouth.

Now that the door of the hall in front of him was opened, and a man slowly walked out, the lord of the household immediately looked up in the direction of the man.

It was already completely dark, and the man came with his backlight, and Tobe-sama didn't see the man's appearance clearly, but he felt that the man's figure was somewhat familiar.

Seeing that there was a woman behind the man, the eyes of the Lord Tobe swirled around the woman's body, and then his eyes flashed.

As soon as he saw this woman, he suddenly remembered the identity in front of him.

Aren't these two the same two rich businessmen who are locked up in the dungeon?

Tobe's heart skipped a heavy beat, he remembered General Zhang's words, the people who were locked in the dungeon had fled, so presumably the two wealthy merchants had also escaped from the barracks.

I was robbed here, is it related to these two rich businessmen?

He turned his head to look at the few people standing behind him, the guards standing in the darkness, staring at him with expressionless faces and cold eyes.

The Tobe lord shuddered, and looked up at his surroundings again.

He whimpered, his brows furrowed, and he wanted to ask Chen Mu what the purpose of arresting him was.

When Chen Mu saw the appearance of the household lord, he glanced at the dark guard, and the dark guard stepped forward and tore the silk cloth from the mouth of the household lord.

Tobe-sama's mouth was free, and he immediately scolded.

"You are so bold that you dare to arrest me, do you know who I am? You've seen me in that barracks, so you should know who I am, I'm a big official in the capital. ”

"You quickly let me go, if you anger me, I will let you go around without eating, I also have a big family behind me, if I have an accident in your hands, they can find out who did it to me."

"When the time comes, you will wait to be dismembered by the five horses!"

Hearing the other party say this, Chen Mu raised his eyebrows, he smiled coldly, and a guard brought out a chair from the hall and placed it in Chen Mu's time.

Chen Mu sat down slowly, he looked at Lord Hubu expressionlessly, and said in a deep voice.

"The great family of the capital...... I know, the surname Xu is right? ”

Seeing that the other party accurately called out the surname of the force behind him, Tobe-sama was stunned, and then, his brows furrowed a little tighter, and he said coldly.

"Now that you know which family I come from, then come to think of it, you also know my identity, let me go quickly, don't force me to do anything to you, I warn you, I am a household official, and I am very important to Your Majesty."

"If you kill me or hurt me, our Xu family and the one in Jingzhong will not let you go!"

has come to this juncture, and this Lord Xu is still using the power of the capital to blackmail himself.

Chen Mu sneered disdainfully, he leaned over and approached Lord Xu, and said word by word.

"Then according to what you said, you should have met Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

When Lord Xu heard this, he sneered, he raised his head, nodded condescendingly, and responded, his eyes full of rebelliousness.

Seeing this, Chen Mu raised his hand and touched his chin, and then spoke.

"Then take a closer look at who I am?"

When Lord Xu heard him say this, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Who is it? Who else could it be?

It's just an ordinary rich businessman!

The clothes and fabrics on his body are luxurious, but they are not so expensive that they are worth a thousand gold, which is enough to compare with those nobles in the capital!

Besides, when I saw this rich merchant before......

While thinking like this, Lord Xu looked up in the direction of Chen Mu, because of the dim light, when he saw Chen Mu just now, he didn't see the other party's appearance clearly.

It wasn't until Chen Mu approached him at this moment that he could see the other party's appearance, and the black ash on the other party's face had been wiped clean, revealing his original appearance.

Lord Xu's eyes fell on the young man's face, and the more he looked, the more familiar he felt, he recalled it carefully, and in an instant, a figure flashed from his mind.

Lord Xu was excited, cold sweat broke out on his back, and a roar sounded in his head.

"Wait, that's not right...... Wrong...... Am I hallucinating? You...... How do you look and ......?"

Hearing him say this, Chen Mu sneered, took it out in his arms, took out a jade pendant, and threw it in front of Lord Xu.

Lord Xu looked down at the appearance of the jade pendant, and the roar in his head became a little louder.
