In the year 1428 of the Great Xuan Calendar, the twenty-fourth day of the first month.

Inspectorate of Inspection.

Chen Muduan sat in the hall on the fifth floor of the division building, constantly reviewing one matter after another.

Half a month has passed since the He family was destroyed, and the He family is a behemoth, and its spreading branches are intertwined, not only the part of the inner city will be completely wiped out, but there are many other branches that need to be dealt with.

He can't hand over these things to others, let alone the Yu family, so he can only review them one by one and pass them on after review.

But.

The day is almost over.

On the one hand, in the past half a month, the government affairs that should be handled have basically been dealt with, and all the officials and men who are clear about their family lineage have basically been dismissed from their posts, investigated and handled, and executed on the spot for heinous crimes.

If there is no violation of law and discipline, they will remain in office for the time being, and wait until other matters are dealt with, and then see if there is any follow-up.

As for the other side, it is Yan Jingqing who is coming back.

After half a month, the battle in the Purple Mist Mountain Range has basically come to an end, and the main altar of the remnants of the Heavenly Corpse Gate has basically been turned upside down by the four sects, and all kinds of resources have been allocated.

Chen Mu took a sip of tea and picked up another note.

"Fu Linjiang, abandoned the official and absconded, was found out when he left the city, tried to resist, and was killed on the spot......"

Well.

He still has a little impression of this person, as if he was a messenger who followed He Mingxuan a long time ago, but it was really not worth caring about for him, so he didn't pay attention to it at all.

Although it is said to be a member of the He family, if he is not a traitor, Chen Mu will most likely not be bothered to meet with a small errand generally, but it is unlikely to think about it, after all, following He Mingxuan to do things, and now he is killed on the spot, and it is over.

"Lord Toji, the Inspector has returned!"

Suddenly, a member of the Supervision Department came to report it.

Chen Mu gave a 'read' on the note, then stood up, followed the clerk all the way downstairs, and soon saw Yan Jingqing coming from a distance, still dressed in white, followed by the two capitals.

"See the Ombudsman."

Many of the inspectors bowed down one after another.

Yan Jingqing did not stick to the false courtesy, and soon walked over, went upstairs with Chen Mu, and after arriving on the sixth floor, he began to listen to Chen Mu's summary report on various affairs in Yucheng.

After listening to it, Yan Jingqing nodded slightly, and said: "Well, I know most things, the matter of the He family is guilty and deserved, although you are in a hurry, but at that time, cutting through the mess with a quick knife is also a countermeasure, and you have done a good job in the follow-up disposal, and sure enough, you have already seen what you know about the way of being an official." ”

For Yan Jingqing.

It is not difficult to deal with the He family, and it is also a matter of turning the palm to destroy the He family, but the key is that after the He family is destroyed, how to quickly calm down the chaos in the various ministries and departments, as well as the inner and outer cities, is the key to the problem.

After Chen Mu exterminated the He family, he did not take the Yu family's personnel to fill all the vacancies in the He family, but divided them very clearly, first with an order, the important positions were temporarily held by the officials of the same government at a higher level, to maintain the stability of the overall situation, and then distributed them one by one, from arrest to trial, judgment and official appointment and dismissal, all the way in an orderly manner.

After that, the vacant official positions were checked one by one to fill in the gaps, and according to the intelligence information of the various yamen, suitable personnel were selected from top to bottom, or promoted, or transferred, and most of the problems were solved one by one in just half a month.

"The subordinates are only doing their best, if there is no supervision department for a lot of intelligence information from the various ministries and departments in Yucheng, most of them will be in a mess and have no way to start."

Chen Mu replied without taking credit.

In fact, it's really not how powerful he is, it's really that the officials are corrupt to a certain extent, and if he smears the roster a few times, maybe it's better than the original situation, he just follows the principle of seeking truth from facts and does things one by one.

But in today's world where he only cares about his own interests and wishes to arrange all his relatives and distant neighbors who can't be beaten by the eight poles, he seems to be like a green lotus that has come out of the mud and is not stained.

Yan Jingqing smiled and said, "Don't be too humble, it should be your credit, it's yours...... Meng Danyun said to me, it is more in line with your way to worship the Seven Xuanzong, but I think that you are not doing things for officials outside, and it also buries your talent, of course, if you go to the Seven Xuanzong to practice, it will also be of great benefit to you, I also practiced under the Seven Xuanzong for a few days as a foreign official, well, when Meng Danyun returns to the Seven Xuan, if you are interested, it will not hurt to go with her. ”

Hearing Yan Jingqing's words, Chen Mu's heart eased slightly.

In fact, if he expressed his intention to go to the Seven Xuanzong, Yan Jingqing would definitely not stop him, but it was naturally better not to bother with words, just listening to Yan Jingqing's words, Meng Danyun seemed to be still in Yu County at the moment.

Chen Mu thought for a while, and said to Yan Jingqing: "Thank you, for your love, now that the incident has subsided, there are still some personal trivial matters that your subordinates need to leave Yucheng, and in addition, your subordinates can also do their part to hunt down the remnants of the Heavenly Corpse Gate." ”

"It's up to you."

Yan Jingqing said with an easy-going expression: "The position of the head of the Supervision Department is still vacant, are you willing to take over?" ”

This sentence made Chen Mu slightly stunned in his heart, and then shook his head secretly, although his Xunfeng artistic conception had been practiced to the second step earlier, and he had made great progress in the simulation and camouflage of the breath, but it seemed that he still couldn't hide the eyes of Yan Jingqing, the top six-visceral realm existence, no wonder Yan Jingqing would keep him in the inner city at that time, I'm afraid there was also this reason.

In fact, Daxuan's official position has always corresponded to the grade of martial arts, in addition to the first rank of the virtual title, from the second rank to the ninth grade, it also corresponds to the eight levels of the martial arts, and the master of the five grades corresponds to the five visceral realms.

Yan Jingqing specifically mentioned that he could take over as the master, which was to secretly point out his realm.

"The subordinates have not been in charge of the division for a long time, and they are not familiar with various affairs, so it is still too early to take over as the head of the department."

Chen Mu thought for a while and responded.

Because Yan Jingqing's tone was not an order, but with a hint of a negotiating attitude, wanting to see his opinion, so he simply expressed it, and did not want to be promoted to the master at this time, mainly because he would soon transfer to the Seven Xuanzong Sect to practice, and it was meaningless to be promoted to the master now.

"It's fine."

Yan Jingqing bowed slightly.

In fact, he did not have the idea of stopping Chen Mu from practicing martial arts, but in terms of martial arts, the Five Organs Realm was a watershed, and he also went to the Seven Xuan Sect to practice penance for a period of time after entering the Five Organs Realm, and then he was born.

Before the Five Visceral Realm, it doesn't actually make much sense to go to the Seven Xuan Sect, even if you comprehend the intentional realm, it is difficult to cultivate various artistic conception secret methods, and it is often difficult to master, only when you enter the Five Visceral Realm or comprehend the second step of artistic conception, it is the beginning.

……

Leave Yan Jingqing's place.

Chen Mu finally let out a sigh.

These days, dealing with all kinds of trivial matters after the He family was wiped out, it is also extremely busy for him, and now he can finally make mistakes, and there is no need to waste his efforts on government affairs.

In fact, a long time ago, he had something that needed to leave Yucheng, which was about his mother Liu Ping's sister, that is, his aunt Liu Rong, and someone had already been found in Anyu County.

He has always kept this matter in his heart and has never forgotten it, but he has never broken through the five visceral realms earlier, and he is facing various threats, it is not the right time to go out of the city, and then it has reached the critical node of serving as the capital of the supervision department, and Yan Jingqing was left in Yucheng to control the overall situation, and it is impossible for him to leave his post without permission, so he has to continue to be placed.

Until now.

Finally, everything is over, and you can go to Anyu County.

In addition, Xu Hongyu is still on the order of the Demon Slashing Division, chasing the remnants of the Heavenly Corpse Gate outside, and now he is in the area of Anyu County, this time he can also pick up Xu Hongyu, and return to Yucheng together when the time comes.

As for the question of the remnants of the He family......

Yan Jingqing told him, basically the elite of the He family was wiped out, and only one He Wuwu was still outside, but he was also injured by Meng Danyun, which is also a small hidden danger, Xu Hongyu still returned to Yucheng earlier, and it was safe under Yu Jiujiang's wings, although Yu Jiujiang experienced the previous battle and was in a worse state, he was still a powerhouse in the Five Visceral Realm within a year or two.

Of course, it is best for He Wuwu to be a person who is full of hatred for him and comes to intercept him halfway, so it is up to him to completely end the matter, so he has to make a little move on this trip.

After thinking about it.

Chen Mu returned to Yu's station.

With the end of the battle in the Purple Mist Mountains, many people from the Yu family have also returned, including the head of the family, Yu Zuyi.

Chen Mu found Yu Zuyi, and after explaining some things, he quietly set off with Chen Yue and the others to Anyu County.

……

Seven or eight days later.

On the official road leading from Yu County to Anyu County.

A carriage was speeding by, wheels rolling by, and dust all the way.

Chen Mu was wearing a simple gown, sitting in front of the car and holding the car, while Chen Yue did not sit in the car, but sat on the other side of the carriage frame, wearing two small feet in small flower shoes swaying with the speed of the carriage, and a pair of big eyes constantly looked around the mountains and rivers in the distance, looking very excited.

For so many years, in addition to being taken by Chen Mu to worship her parents, it was the first time she went out of the city in the real sense, and she was very curious about everything outside the city, and she was quite excited along the way.

As a matter of fact.

The children of the Yu family's martial arts academy, after entering the meat training realm, will have some opportunities to be taken out of the city by the martial artist to experience and hunt some nearby fierce beasts and monsters, but since the four sects have been stationed in Yu County, all the martial arts institutes have lost this activity, including the Yu family, and they don't go out of the city without permission for anything.

"Brother, do you think that now, can we be regarded as fighting the sword world and walking the rivers and lakes?"

Chen Yue suddenly approached Chen Mu and said with a smile.

Chen Mu glanced at her and said, "The sword world is still far away, it's just in the remote mountains, but walking the rivers and lakes...... When have we ever been out of the rivers and lakes? ”

It's probably the environment of the inner city, so that this girl doesn't realize that the world has long been a whole river and lake.

"That's right."

Chen Yue had a happy look on his face, looked up at the sky, and said, "My brother has told me a lot of stories, in fact, when I was very young, what I wanted most was to be able to be the person in the story with my brother." ”

Chen Mu looked at Chen Yue, and then looked at the official road that stretched to the end of his line of sight in the distance, and his heart was a little leisurely for a while, at the beginning, he just thought that he could take Chen Yue to live a good life together.

But human desires are always endless.

"You've been in the story for a long time."

Chen Mu reached out and touched Chen Yue's head, then glanced at the side of the official road.

Chen Yue noticed Chen Mu's gaze and looked over, and then saw seven or eight figures suddenly turning out of the ditch on the side of the official road and directly blocking the frame.

The first person had a hideous face, held a steel knife, and said: "I opened this mountain, and I ......planted this tree."

"Oh, you want the rivers and lakes."

Chen Mu smiled at Chen Yue.

Walking on the official road in broad daylight, and there are not a large number of guards and attendants, it is strange that there are no robbers who rob the road, and the disciples of the four sects are stationed in Yu County, which only makes the situation a little better, but in fact there are still a lot.

"Hehe, that chivalrous girl will be chivalrous."

Chen Yue blinked, then with a shake of her little hand, she pulled out the soft sword that she was sitting under half of her ass to prevent it from being shaken and turned upside down by the carriage, and then jumped out, got out of the car, and killed the seven or eight bandits in front of her.

"Yo, it's a pretty girl."

The nearest knife-wielding bandit showed a lewd smile, but as soon as he swung the knife up, he felt that Chen Yue's figure passed in front of him as soon as he saw a flower, and his throat hurt even more, and he felt a hot current rushing down.

His eyes widened slightly, and when he reached out and touched it, it was all blood, and then he shook and fell.

"This girl, it's not bad."

Chen Mu sat on the frame, watching this scene, and only smiled slightly.

Chen Yue is actually not a weak person, the realm of practicing meat and Dacheng's swordsmanship can fight against some ordinary robber bandits, but compared to people like him who have already stood at the top of a county, it is nothing.

Speaking of which, this should be Chen Yue's 'actual combat' in the true sense, maybe because he is next to him, so he is very calm, but he can kill people with a sword without hesitation, at least this girl is much stronger than Yu Ru in terms of mood, and it is indeed suitable for martial arts.

"Stick to the point!"

"Beware!"

"Oh, hurry up and kill this guy!"

The group of bandits who sensed that the situation was wrong immediately became fierce and vicious, surrounded Chen Yue, and greeted her with a steel knife, and one of the leaders said even more hideously: "Dare to kill Brother Lao Tzu, you are tired of being crooked, Lao Tzu wants to let the brothers taste you, and use your body as a snack!" ”

All kinds of foul language and vicious scolding came to him, but Chen Yue was unexpectedly calm, wielding a soft sword to resist attacks from all directions, fighting and retreating, not allowing himself to completely fall into the encirclement, and from time to time a sword counterattack, injuring or even killing a person.

"Hiss......"

One of them was hit by a sword in his thigh, and one stumbled to the ground, and after getting up, he looked at Chen Yue's figure angrily, but suddenly his eyes moved to Chen Mu, who was sitting on the frame and was not moving.

The woman's young age is very tight, this little white face must be a concubine, take Chen Mu down first, it will definitely make Chen Yue throw a mouse bogey, let them take it.

So he laughed and walked towards Chen Mu on the frame.

However.

As soon as he walked to the frame, he suddenly felt his eyes spinning, and in the confusion, he saw only a familiar headless corpse standing there, which turned out to be his own corpse.

Until death, there was a trace of doubt in his eyes, how did his head fall off.

The more bandits are fighting, the fewer they are.

Soon, only the villain led by him was fighting one-on-one with Chen Yue.

It seems that he has not practiced the body quenching method, but his body is strong and powerful, and he has a very set of knife skills, and he has a knife momentum, so he can compete with Chen Yue in the flesh training realm.

Seeing that one by one the brothers fell, or were killed by Chen Yue, or were seriously injured and difficult to get up, a strong fierce light finally appeared in his eyes, and the evil was born to the side of the bold, and the big knife in his hand made a fierce move, slashing at Chen Yue.

This knife is a fierce and lose-lose style.

According to the momentum of the sword, Chen Yue's sword will inevitably pierce his throat, and his knife will smash Chen Yue's shoulder bone at most, it is Chen Yue who has the advantage, but his eyes are accompanied by ferocity, he does not dodge or dodge, and he insists on exchanging death for injury.

Chen Yue also noticed this, and after the glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, he did not flinch.

Poof.

The sword pierced the robber's throat.

The bandit's knife could also fall on her shoulder, but it was blocked by an invisible force, and she couldn't cut it down in the slightest, and then the whole knife started from the blade, shattered inch by inch, turned into a grain of iron slag, and scattered down.

"Uh......"

Blood spilled from the bandit's mouth, and his eyes widened slightly, as if he couldn't understand what was happening.

In the end, he fell down unwillingly.

Watching the fall of the bandits, Chen Yue's small chest rose and fell violently a few times, obviously her heart was not calm, she looked at her shoulder again, looked at the iron slag scattered all over the ground, exhaled lightly, and then put away the soft sword and returned to the frame.

"Why don't you hide?"

Chen Mu looked at Chen Yue and asked lightly.

Chen Yue's little face was still a little pale, and he shook his head and said, "I can win." ”

Chen Mu looked at Chen Yue's appearance and knew that she was not so decisive because she was behind, but indeed made her own judgment and choice in the moment of the battle, and finally reached out and touched her head.

"It's your first time, but it's good."

Although he usually spends more time in cultivation and doesn't pay much attention to Chen Yue, he knows Chen Yue's efforts, he initially wanted to help him, but now he doesn't want to be a drag on him.

Chen Yue's mood gradually calmed down a lot, smiled, and said, "I want to be a powerful person like Sister Hongyu." ”

Chen Mu smiled: "Be a little bolder and become a person like Senior Sister Meng." ”

"Who is Senior Sister Meng?"

"Oh, I haven't told you yet, the true legend of the Seven Xuanzong Lingxuan, Meng Danyun."

"Really, isn't that someone more powerful than my brother."

"Senior Sister Meng is indeed a little ahead of me in terms of cultivation."

"That's my brother a little more powerful?"

"I still have a lot of respect for Senior Sister Meng."

Transitional plot, you can only add a little more words to write faster.
