Great Xuanwu Sheng

Chapter 91 Intelligence

Xu Hongyu's status in the fourth generation of the Yu family is very high, and she is a strong person who has entered the Yijin realm and can stand alone. Yu Yun knows that it will be okay no matter how much trouble she and Yu Ru have, but they cannot interfere with Xu Hongyu's affairs. Otherwise, at least you will get a reprimand, and at worst, you may be punished by facing a wall to reflect on your mistakes.

Therefore, after recognizing Chen Mu, Yu Yun left without further entanglement.

 After all, this is Nancheng, and it would be no good if Xu Hongyu was in trouble.

 The main reason is that Xu Hongyu is also more partial to Yu Ru. On the one hand, Yu Ru's father and Xu Hongyu's mother are biological siblings. Yu Ru and Xu Hongyu are almost like biological sisters, while Yu Yun's relationship is farther.

On the other hand, Xu Hongyu's father disappeared in her early years, and Yu Ru's mother suffered from an incurable disease and died very early. Therefore, Xu Hongyu took great care of Yu Ru since she was a child... Of course, most of Yu Yun's various dissatisfaction with Yu Ru also came from Therefore, when I had a fight with Yu Ru when I was a child, the adults on either side would always favor Yu Ru.

certainly.

The elders in the Yu family don't care about these things. It's normal for the younger generation to have good or bad relationships. Yu Yun and Yu Ru's quarrels with each other can also promote the competitive atmosphere in the martial arts academy.

Chen Mu didn't know much about the inside of the Yu family. The only people he was familiar with so far were Xu Hongyu, Xiao He and Yu Ru. This was the first time Yu Yun had met him. After listening to some of Chen Yue's statements, he roughly understood Know something.

 So I didn’t care even more.

certainly.

If he were an elder of the Yu family, he would probably discipline a little girl like Yu Yun severely. Although Yu Ru's temperament is a bit too soft, Yu Yun is also a bit too proud at a young age.

However, Chen Yue's previous reaction impressed him. Facing Yu Yun and a few followers, he was not inferior at all in terms of momentum. If Yu Ru's temperament is to say, martial arts training can only be about strengthening the body, then Chen Yue, If you can practice to a certain level in the future, you will indeed be able to stand alone.

After getting along for a short time and taking in Chen Yue's changes and Yu Ru's situation, Chen Mu quickly changed the topic and chatted for a few words, which made Yu Ru burst into laughter and put the sadness behind her. .

 Took two little girls to play together.

Both Yu Ru and Chen Yue were wearing elegant dresses. Although they were still very young, they already had a kind of youthful and hazy girlish beauty. When they showed their faces and laughed, they added a bit of girlish charm. They also attracted attention along the way. Come to a lot of sight.

 There were some with malicious intentions among them, but when they noticed Chen Mu leading Yu Ru and Chen Yue, many of them quickly converged their gazes. Some of those who did not restrain themselves followed quietly for a while, and soon disappeared silently.

Although Chen Mu is not wearing official uniform, ordinary people may not recognize him, but gangsters of various gangs usually do the job of recognizing people, and there are few who don't recognize the dignified Wutongli Chaosi.

 A messenger,

That is undoubtedly a person who cannot be messed with.

Chen Mu also noticed some secret glances, but he didn't pay attention. Today, he is no longer Wu Xia Ameng. In the early years, if he wanted to take Chen Yue out to play, he would have to smear her little face dirty and make her look ugly. , now walking openly in the streets, still calm and composed.

After making a large circle on the main street, a few people came to the back of the main street. After walking forward for a while, a row of towering bluestone courtyard walls appeared in front of them. The atmosphere was solemn and solemn, and one could still see inside the courtyard walls. See a four-story high-rise building.

“This should be the City Health Department of Nancheng District?”

Chen Yue raised her head and looked at the long, open area in front of her.

"Um."

Chen Mu nodded slightly and said: "Speaking of Xu Hong... Well, Mr. Xu may be back. Xiaoru, do you want to go in and take a look?"

Yu Ru looked in the direction of the City Guard General Department and said, "I haven't seen Sister Hongyu for a long time. I heard that Sister Hongyu went out of the city to hunt monsters. It seems that she will be back during this time."

 “Let’s go.”

Chen Mu took Chen Yue and Yu Ru to the General Department of City Security.

He hasn't seen Xu Hongyu for a long time. He only heard from Xiaohe that he will be back in a day or two. If he comes back, he will explain some recent things to Xu Hongyu and give a brief work report.

soon.

Several people entered the City Guard Department and arrived at the fourth floor.

“It’s sister Xiaoru, why are you here?”

 Xiao He was browsing a document in the lobby on the fourth floor. When he saw Chen Mu, Chen Yue and Yu Ru coming up, he didn't show any surprise and looked at Yu Ru with a smile.

Ordinary maids and maids would be respectfully addressed as miss in front of Yu Ru, but Xiao He is different. Not only is Xu Hongyu's personal maid who has been together since childhood, but she is also a figure who has entered the realm of Yijin. She can take Xu Hongyu's place when Xu Hongyu is away. He is in charge of the General Department of City Security. When Xu Hongyu is promoted in the future, he will even be qualified to take over the post of General Police Department.

 In fact, the relationship between Xiao He and Yu Ru is also very good.

 “Sister He.”

Yu Ru greeted Xiaohe obediently, and then said, "I want to come and see Sister Hongyu."

Xiao He reached out and touched Yu Ru's head and said, "Miss, something happened. She can't go back to the city these days. When Miss comes back, she will definitely go to the inner city to see sister Xiao Ru."

 Speaking of which.

 She looked at Chen Mu and winked at Chen Mu.

Chen Mu understood, patted Chen Yue on the shoulder, and then followed Xiao He into the side room of the government office.

"What happened."

Chen Mu walked into the side hall and asked Xiao He.

Xiaohe shook his head and said: "It's not a big deal. You know that the Yu family has been in charge of the 'Salt Affairs Department' and is responsible for the entire salt transportation business in Yucheng. Yesterday, a batch of salt goods was robbed outside the city. The lady was supposed to come back. Yes, after this happened, I turned around and tracked it down. According to some clues, there is a high probability that it was the 'Black Cloud Thief'."

 “Black Cloud Pirates…”

 Chen Mu looked thoughtful.

He has also heard of this name. It is said that they are a group of bandits entrenched in the mountains to the north of Yucheng. They are very vicious and often carry out robberies. Yucheng has also sent troops to suppress the bandits many times, but all failed.

Several of his bosses are on wanted notices from the City Guards Department, with heavy rewards being placed on them. Among them, the reward for the first boss is as high as 5,000 taels of silver, and the reward for the second boss is as much as 3,000 taels!

“Actually, this Black Cloud Bandit has always had some unclear connection with the He family.”

 Xiaohe said again. These words made Chen Mu nod slightly. After all, if they were just a group of ordinary bandits, it would be impossible for them to be entrenched outside Yucheng for many years without being able to deal with them. Even if Yucheng sent troops to encircle and suppress them, they would not be able to defeat them.

If there is something to do with the forces in the inner city behind it, or simply the external forces used by the He family to do some shady things, then it would be understandable. After all, who dares to kill Mr. Huang’s horse?

Chen Mu thought for a while and asked: "So the Yu family plans to mobilize troops to defeat the Black Cloud Bandits?"

"No."

Xiao He shook his head: "It's not worth going to war over a group of bandits. Besides, even if we really mobilize our troops, it would be difficult for the Heiyun thieves to keep their hands and the He family to inform them. It would be difficult to pounce on them and catch two people here and there. It’s just a waste of effort.”

At this point, Xiao He looked at Chen Mu and whispered: "I have a piece of information here. The He family has a batch of prohibited goods to be transported in the past two days. There is a high probability that they will bypass your Wutongli and go to 'Weigouli' Over there, the possible route is... You take people to see if they can capture this batch of goods. I can't send troops to help here. The He family's eyes and ears are everywhere. You have to act strictly over there. Beware of the City Guards Department. There is also an informant from the He family."

 “Well, I understand.”

 Chen Mu nodded calmly.

This should be the battle between the He family and the Yu family. The He family used the black cloud thieves to steal a batch of goods from the Yu family. The Yu family's counterattack came immediately, and they also wanted to deal with a batch of goods from the He family. fight back.

Xiao He looked at Chen Mu, suddenly moved closer, and whispered: "Be careful. If something cannot be done, give up first."

Chen Mu sniffed the faint fragrance coming from his nose, turned his head to look at her, and said, "Is this an instruction from above, or... is it something you want to tell me yourself?"

Xiaohe's cheeks were slightly red, she took a step back, pursed her lips and smiled softly: "I am just a little maid. I don't dare to be teased by Master Chen without the consent of the young lady..."

 Chen Mu watched Xiao He walk out of the side hall, his eyes swept over the still clean side room, and he could still vaguely recall the figure of Xu Hongyu, dressed in a **** flying fish suit, standing at the window overlooking Nancheng.

Um.

 It just looks a bit too cold.

 …

 Leaving the side room, Xiao He and Yu Ru talked some more, and then sent the group out of the headquarters.

Chen Mu saw that it was getting late, so he sent Chen Yue and Yu Ru all the way back to the inner city. When they were leaving, Chen Yue looked at Chen Mu reluctantly, wanting to rush up and hug him like he did in the past, but he was a little embarrassed. Finally, He just waved his hand.

Yu Ru didn’t dare to look at Chen Mu. She lowered her head and said goodbye to Chen Mu, and then ran into the inner city with Chen Yue.

Chen Mu watched Chen Yue and Yu Ru leave with gentle eyes.

When the two figures disappeared from sight, he slowly turned around, his eyes became cold again, and soon returned to the City Guard Department and issued an order.

 Not long.

 Seven chiefs from the City Guards Department gathered one after another.

"There will be some action in the next few nights. There is no need to mobilize the officers below, and there is no need to ask any questions. Just follow my instructions."

Chen Mu looked at Shang Qinglai and others, and spoke in a calm tone.

"yes."

Shang Qinglai and others responded one after another.

Then they looked at each other, but they didn't know what to do. But since the seven of them were required to follow together, it must be a more important event.

 Chen Mu's authority in the City Guards Department is now growing day by day. He enforces orders and prohibitions. Once an order is given, Shang Qinglai and others do not even dare to ask about the specific content. They just obey each other.

“Okay, let’s all go back and change into casual clothes. We’ll meet at Sanchakou at midnight.”

Chen Mu gave an instruction and then waved his hand.

Shang Qinglai and others resigned accordingly.

On the way out of the office, someone whispered: "I'm going out in casual clothes, I don't know what it is..."

Shang Qinglai said in a low voice: "Don't ask, since you don't say anything, you have your own reasons."

Several people nodded one after another, left the city guard department, and left separately.

but.

One of the captains had a flash of light in his eyes after leaving the City Guards Department. He quickly walked into the street in front of him, turned his steps, changed direction, and walked towards a remote neighborhood.

A moment later, Zhang Tong came to the end of a remote alley and arrived in front of a dilapidated tiled house. He reached out and knocked on the door, and then said in a deep voice to the door: "The City Guards has something to do tonight."

"knew."

  Someone inside the door responded in a low voice.

 Zhang Tong nodded, then looked around nervously, then quickly turned around and left.

He actually didn't want to tip off others and leak the internal actions of the City Guard, but... they gave him too much. As long as he worked quietly for a year or two, he could get money that he couldn't make in ten years.

However.

Just as Zhang Tong quietly slipped back to the entrance of the alley and walked out, his whole body suddenly froze in place.

On one side of the alley entrance, Chen Mu was standing there quietly, looking at him like this.
