Inner City.

Located in the center, there is a simple and solemn platform, the towering bluestone courtyard wall, which is the center of Yucheng, and also the city lord's mansion and a group of government officials.

In one of the small buildings on one side, a middle-aged man in plain clothes was standing in front of the window with his hands in his hands, looking out at the courtyard.

Although he did not wear official clothes, just the momentum between his eyebrows and eyes had a majesty of his own, which was beyond the comparison of ordinary people.

He is the capital of the outer city, Yan Guang.

In addition to the four city guards in the southeast, northwest and northwest, all the subordinates in the entire outer city area are also under his jurisdiction, not only Xu Hongyu's direct boss, but also a figure standing at the top in the entire Yucheng.

Above him, there are only a few characters such as the capital commander and the city lord.

"I heard that there was some movement in Nancheng last night?"

Suddenly someone walked in, Yan Guang didn't turn around, but stood in front of the window and asked casually.

The person from the rear smiled and said, "It's a little thing, I can't imagine that even you have heard about it." ”

Yan Guang turned his head and said lightly: "The Zheng family is indeed nothing, but it is just a remote relative of the He family, but the young man promoted by Hongyu has some ability." ”

"Well, this son was accidentally dug up by Xu Hongyu, originally just a low-level little person, but quite perceptive, self-taught a set of knife techniques to practice knife posture, and was even more talented, and practiced a body of extreme skin grinding in a short time, and now it has reached the level of meat training."

Xue Xiang nodded and said.

Yan Guang pondered: "Perception and qualifications are quite extraordinary, even if you start a little late, but if you can enter the level of Yijin, it is a talent worth recruiting." ”

Xue Xiang thought for a moment and said: "This Chen Mu was almost raised by Xu Hongyu from the bottom, it is not so easy to bring him into the command of the Xue family, it is not worth making a big move, I think it is better to let it be given to the Yu family, and let the Yu family and the He family continue to fight." ”

When Yan Guang heard this, he showed a deep groan.

Although Chen Mu was picked up by Xu Hongyu, if he wanted to intercept people, it was not very difficult, he could directly promote Chen Mu to the inner city to do things, and he could pull Chen Mu out of the quagmire of the struggle between the Yu and He families in one step.

You can even give Yi Jin Pills, find the right age from the children of the Xue family and give it to Chen Mu, and so on.

There is a means of solicitation.

Again, the main problem is the trade-offs.

Judging from today's intelligence, Chen Mu does have a good understanding and talent, but after all, he started a little late, and now he is only in the realm of meat training, and no one knows whether he can cross the threshold of Yi Jin.

If he used various means to solicit and win over, but Chen Mu couldn't enter the level of Yijin, it would be a joke.

After all, there are as many martial artists as there are to grind skin and practice meat, and if you don't enter the easy tendons, it is nothing at all.

"That's fine."

Yan Guang thought about it for a while, but still shook his head slightly.

Indeed, as Xue Xiang said, it is not worth making a big move, even if Chen Mu can step into the level of Yijin in the future, it can only be said that he is a talent worth recruiting, and it is not necessary.

The Yu family is now in a difficult situation, and there is no need to deliberately target it, it is just a possible talent, and if it can bring a little more trouble to the He family, it can be regarded as effective.

……

Nancheng District.

General Department of City Guards.

Chen Mu was wearing a dark green suit and came to the bottom of the main building.

At this time, it was almost noon, and the blazing sun was shining on people, and some people couldn't open their eyes.

Although he ordered someone to report to the General Department early in the morning about the situation of last night, after his errand had dealt with all the matters, he still had to come to report on his work in person.

Today's Chen Mu, whether he enters the general department or the general building, no one needs to be taught, let alone someone to lead the way.

Follow the stairs all the way up.

But just as he was walking past the third floor, a cold voice came: "Chen Chasi is so majestic, he didn't communicate to the general secretary in advance, and mobilized people to fight with the Zheng family. ”

I saw a person walking towards this side, with a cold face and an unkind tone, it was He Mingxuan, the deputy general secretary.

Although the Zheng family is nothing to the He family, in the end, it is also a family dog that has been raised in the outer city for decades, and the silver sent to the He family every year is as much as tens of thousands of taels.

And now, overnight, it was wiped out!

This surprised He Mingxuan, who heard the news early in the morning, he originally wanted the Zheng family to take the lead and make more trouble for Chen Mu, and then he made trouble from the side of the general director, looking for an opportunity to kick Chen Mu out of the Wutongli City Guard, so as to arrange his own manpower to take over.

As a result, the Zheng family didn't do anything, and on the fifth day of Chen Mu's tenure, he suddenly thundered and uprooted the Zheng family.

What a good way to play tricks!

He Mingxuan, who reacted, was even more furious.

However.

The next scene made He Mingxuan even more furious.

I saw Chen Mu standing there, his expression indifferent, and said:

"You are?"

He Mingxuan was stunned in the face of Chen Mu's reaction, and then a wave of anger rose: "Bastard! ”

Although it was the first time he and Chen Mu had met, how could Chen Mu not recognize his identity!

Chen Mu said lightly: "If Your Excellency is fine, please don't stand in the way." ”

Of course he knew who the person in front of him was, but He Mingxuan didn't reveal his identity, so he naturally didn't bother to admit it, not to mention that the conflict between Xu Hongyu and He Mingxuan was well known, and he didn't need to give any face.

"You ......"

He Mingxuan smoked for a while, he was the deputy general manager, the He family's descendants, Xu Hongyu was just that, when a little errand would dare to be so rude to him.

However, just when He Mingxuan was furious and couldn't bear it anymore and was about to attack, a crisp voice suddenly came.

"This is Lord He, the vice president."

I saw Xiaohe's figure appear on the stairs.

"Oh, it turned out to be Lord Ho."

Chen Mu arched his hand at He Mingxuan.

He Mingxuan's face froze there, only feeling that there was nowhere to vent his anger, and said coldly: "You haven't explained the reason for the merger with the Zheng family last night. ”

Xiaohe took over: "The Zheng family smuggled illegal medicinal materials, and they were exiled from their homes everywhere, Lord Chen has reported to the Chief Missionary in advance, and last night's action was also approved by the Chief Mission, if you have any questions, you can ask the Chief Mission." ”

“…… Very good. ”

He Mingxuan's face was gloomy, his eyes glanced at Xiaohe coldly, then at Chen Mu, and then left with his sleeves brushed up.

Xiaohe watched He Mingxuan turn around, the corners of his eyes slightly curved a lovely arc, and then looked at Chen Mudao: "Okay, go up quickly, Miss is waiting for you." ”

Chen Mu and Xiaohe glanced at each other tacitly, and both regained their calm expressions, and then walked upstairs together, and soon disappeared on the fourth floor.

After a long time, some silent messengers cautiously glanced this way, and quickly withdrew their gaze.
