My wife is not a demon

"Chen Mu..."

Seeing this guy staring at Suzaku and not speaking, Gao Yuanchun couldn't help calling out in a low voice and winking wildly.

You can talk back a little to Xuanwu Shi, but don't be stupid in front of this female Rakshasa.

Chen Mu came back to his senses and realized that the clothes on his back were already damp. He lowered his head and said respectfully, "The snake demon told me that Concubine Xu Guifei gave birth to a human child, not a civet cat."

As soon as the voice fell, it was like a boulder falling into the sea, and there was a turbulent wave.

"What you said is true!?"

Suzaku opened the eyes of the phoenix, bursting out with light.

A strong and extreme chill spread out around Suzaku as the center, and he stepped forward suddenly, staring at Chen Mu.

The pupils like ink stones are surrounded by blood, which really deserves the title of Rakshasa girl.

Everyone present felt depressed.

Chen Mu's heart was pounding, and he cursed in his heart: "You are a menopausal old woman, have you got sick? Did I scare you too much?"

At this moment, he suddenly missed his wife terribly.

It's better to be a lady, gentle and virtuous, never facing him coldly, always with a gentle and friendly appearance.

Perhaps because he realized that his impulsiveness had frightened her husband, Bai Xianyu hurriedly restrained her breath, and asked calmly, "Tell me everything you know."

Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief as his momentum eased.

He wiped the sweat from his temples with the back of his hand, and said: "The snake demon just told me that Concubine Xu gave birth to a boy, but was secretly replaced by a civet cat. It's just that the child was a fool and didn't cry after giving birth. No noise, like a puppet without a soul."

Fool?

Everyone looked at each other.

Suzaku Envoy asked again: "Is it highly reliable?"

Chen Mu smiled wryly: "The snake demon also knew about it from the cat demon. After all, they were imprisoned under the same Guanshanmeng back then. It's hard for me to judge whether the credibility is high or not."

"Did she say who is behind the scenes?"

"No, the cat demon doesn't know either." Chen Mu shook his head.

Bai Xianyu remained silent.

She still believed her husband's words. There was no need for the other party to lie. The snake demon must have said this to him.

She looked up at Xuanwu, and the two made eye contact.

Now regardless of whether what the snake demon said is true or not, this alone is enough to satisfy the Queen Mother.

The Empress Dowager does not need witnesses or physical evidence, she only needs a rumor that looks true, as long as it is used well, it can prevent the young emperor from ruling.

Among them, Chen Mu is definitely a key figure.

Thinking of this, the corners of the lips under the woman's mask became more curved, and Bai Xianyu looked at her husband with softer eyes: "Did the snake demon tell you anything else?"

"Gone."

Chen Mu kept his head down all the time, not daring to look into each other's eyes.

Afraid of being seen through by the other party.

He didn't intend to talk about the case of the Hong family. Since Ming Wei investigated it back then, he didn't make it public, which shows that the case is very deep.

If you say it rashly, it will cause trouble again, so you can investigate slowly after you arrive in the capital.

"There's one thing I'm puzzled about."

Xuan Wu spoke suddenly, staring at Chen Mu with a gloomy gaze, "Why did the snake demon tell you this?"

"I'm not sure about this. It's probably because they don't want to cause trouble anymore, so they use my mouth to convey information to you. After all, the adults have seen my abilities, so I don't need to lie."

Chen Mu gave a vague answer.

Xuanwu snorted coldly, and wanted to ask more questions, but seeing the warning in Bai Xianyu's eyes, he could only hold back his stomach.

"Okay, you go back first."

Seeing her husband's disheveled face, he must have been exhausted enough today, so Bai Xianyu signaled him to go back and rest.

"Retire from humble office."

Chen Muru was granted an amnesty and withdrew from the county government hall.

He didn't want to face this female Rakshasa for a moment. Standing in front of her, he felt that his blood was not going well, and he was probably going to have a cerebral thrombosis.

"Master Gao, you go down too."

"The subordinate retire."

After watching Gao Yuanchun leave, only Xuanwu and Suzaku were left in the hall.

"This kid must be hiding something."

Xuanwu said lightly.

Seeing the second sister staring at him coldly, Xuanwu froze, coughed twice and said: "I didn't intend to hurt him just now, I just wanted to scare him."

Bai Xianyu looked away: "The snake demon continued to search and sent the information to the Queen Mother. Husband...Chen Mu is a key person, and you have seen his ability. The Queen Mother will definitely reuse him. You'd better not do stupid things. "

"You want to recruit him into Hades?" Xuan Wu frowned.

Bai Xianyu didn't answer directly, but said coldly: "Just do your job well, and don't meddle in other things!"

"Okay, but the queen mother also gave you a task."

"What mission?"

"You should have heard of a Taoist named 'Wu Ming' who appeared recently."

"I know, what's the matter?" The woman raised her eyebrows.

Xuanwu put his hands behind his back and sneered: "I don't see the ancients in the past, and I don't see the newcomers in the future. I think about the long distance between the world and the earth, and I am sad and tearful!...Hmph, what a big tone, what a big grievance."

Bai Xianyu was silent.

She understood what the task was.
