The villain and I have eight hundred minds combined

In the final analysis... it is absolutely impossible to live without money! She has to wait for Jingchen's shop to distribute dividends to her at the end of the month. If the internal treasury and the dividends are not enough to support her, she will find a way at that time.

"Yes! I obey your command!" The guard quickly received the order.

Seeing that he was upright and polite, Mu Hanxing praised him in public: "Although I pardoned Shang Ke, you are loyal and polite, and have maintained the law and order in the city. You really deserve a reward. I will let Chuntao bring your reward to you later."

These are good citizens and must be rewarded publicly, otherwise people's hearts will be dispersed.

"Thank you very much for the reward, Lord City Lord!" The guard had a look of surprise on his face, and it was obvious that he did not expect to receive the reward from the City Lord today.

"Well, I'll leave this matter to you for now. You must handle it properly and don't blame him too much. He knows he's wrong."

"Yes, I will do it now!"

"Lord City Lord..." The little boy was held by the guard's hand and turned back to look at her after taking only two steps.

Mu Hanxing only said to him: "Don't be afraid, you are a soldier's child, from now on, you have a family."

The little boy's eyes instantly turned red again, and then he nodded vigorously: "Yeah!"

There were many things in the city that needed people to take care of them, and she obviously didn't have enough manpower. On the way back, she quickly instructed Chun Tao, who was now a man, "Don't mention it, you look pretty good. Go ask the fairies in the city and see if there are any talented people who have special skills and are loyal. Bring them over and train them as your own people."

"Okay, I get it, the legendary seduction!" Chuntao's eyes sparkled.

"..." Mu Hanxing glanced at him, "Just be sweet-mouthed, I'm not asking you to sacrifice yourself."

……

A few days later.

Chuntao actually found a good fairy in the city for her, whose name was Qiuqiu. According to Chuntao, she admired the city lord very much and wanted to be like him, swinging a sword and destroying the world. However, she had a weak constitution, low spiritual power, and no important position in the city, so she did not dare to ask for an official position in Xihe Palace.

Moreover, this person is a bit introverted and timid, and has trouble speaking in front of others. But Qiuqiu has one big advantage - she is very patient with children.

When Mu Hanxing heard this, he immediately understood what Chuntao meant. According to the report from the guard that day, there were dozens of orphans on the battlefield. It would not do to leave them all in the orphanage set up in the city without anyone to take care of them. They definitely needed a gentle and patient fairy to take care of them. So, Chuntao introduced Qiuqiu.

Chuntao was so much in her heart that she immediately called Qiuqiu to Xihe Palace.

When she saw the person, she found that she was a petite, beautiful girl with a jade-like figure. She was accompanied by Chuntao. When she arrived at her palace, she was still trembling with fear. This was her first time to be so close to the city lord, and she didn't know what to do.

"Greetings, my Lord... the City Lord!" Qiuqiu half lowered her head, her face flushed.

It can be seen that this is a person with a little social phobia, an ultimate i person.

"You don't have to be so nervous. I heard that you have always wanted to work for me. Is that true?" Mu Hanxing asked her kindly.

"Yes, yes!" Qiuqiu looked excited, then lowered her eyes and said in a low voice with frustration, "But I... don't know anything, and my spiritual power is not high."

"Everyone has his or her own place. Not everyone in this world has strong spiritual powers. Do they all want to die?" Mu Hanxing asked her back.

Qiuqiu lowered her head, clenched her fingers, and asked nervously, "Then, what can I do for the city lord?"

Mu Hanxing said seriously, "I heard that you like to take care of children. A nursery is being built in the city. Most of the children are orphans after the war. They have suffered some physical and mental injuries. I hope you can go there to manage it. You need to take care of their food and calm their negative emotions so that they can grow up healthily. Although the rank of this position is not as high as that of other officials in the city, it is also an indispensable position in my Fuyue City. If you agree, I will immediately appoint you as the 'Children's Orphan'. How about it?"

"Master Yu...Si..." Qiuqiu was dumbfounded. In the past, she didn't even have the courage to get close to this place, let alone become an official.

Mu Hanxing knew what she was worried about, and he also understood her personality very well, so he took the initiative to say, "You don't have to worry about those things. As long as you can take good care of the orphans in the city for me, you can come to me if you need anything in the future. Don't be afraid that you might not be able to do it well. Everyone has a process of getting familiar with the beginning. As long as you are willing to work hard, this matter can be regarded as a great help to me. Now there are many big and small things in the city that need me to deal with personally. I am really too busy. How do you do it?"

After listening to Mu Hanxing's series of persuasions, Qiuqiu became firm almost at the same time, and she spoke fluently. She nodded vigorously: "As long as the city lord does not despise my low spiritual power, I will definitely help. I love taking care of children the most! I heard about Shang Ke's situation... He is actually a very good child, but his parents passed away suddenly. He is very sad and has no one to talk to. If no one takes care of him, many children in the city may go astray and have inner demons when they grow up."

When it comes to the matter of "inner demon", Mu Hanxing frowned. The last time she heard about the appearance of a thief in the city, her emotions fluctuated too quickly, and the negative emotions came unexpectedly. After thinking about it, she still couldn't understand what was going on. After dealing with Linglong's banquet, she had to hurry back to the sect. She remembered that there was still her junior uncle who loved her very much when she was a child in the Wenxin Sect. Maybe she could have a chat with him.

Moreover, perhaps the Jiuzhou Dingzhen that Qi Baige is looking for can suppress the signs of her current possession of the devil.

"Since you have thought so much, I can feel more at ease leaving the orphanage to you to manage. Since you have thought it through, you will be the orphanage manager from today on." Mu Hanxing smiled gently at Qiuqiu.

Qiuqiu's eyes were full of longing and her expression was overflowing with joy. It turned out that the city lord was not as cold and frosty as she had imagined.

"Yes! I will take up the post now!" Qiuqiu said, and hurriedly trotted out of Xihe Palace.

After everything was arranged, Mu Hanxing felt a lot more relaxed. She immediately went to the hot spring in Xihe Palace to take a rose bath to wash away her physical and mental fatigue.

The hot spring pool in the palace is open-air and is built behind the Xihe Palace. From a distance, you can see mist rising up.

She was halfway through washing when she suddenly heard a slight noise behind her. She was extremely alert, her eyes turned cold, and she quickly grabbed an undershirt from the edge of the pool. With a quick turn, she had put on her clothes, fitting tightly, leaving no room for imagination.

She was serious about cutting off her relationship.

This is also to avoid the common weird scenes in ancient idol dramas, such as the moment when a passerby is peeking at a woman taking a bath.

"Who? Out..." She was interrupted when she turned around halfway through her words.

Standing in front of him was Jing Chen, who was carrying a flower basket and walking towards the nearby area with a calm and upright face. He said frankly: "I asked to see you, so Chun Tao led me here. I thought that I had helped the city lord bathe before, so I came in."
