"Brother Mu, don't you know? The emperor of Daxia is the empress!"
When Hu Daming saw Xue Mu being so surprised, he added a few words: "At that time, the empress of Daxia ascended the throne with the support of all the civil and military ministers. At that time, the first emperor of Daxia had no choice but to give birth to his only son."
After saying that, he deliberately looked around to make sure there was no one around, and then continued: "So... our eldest princess in Daqing seems to have this idea too."
"Eldest princess?" Xue Mu became curious.
"Shh~~" Hu Daming said cautiously: "The eldest princess has a lot of people, and she has her eyes and ears to protect her. So let's... don't say so much."
While he was telling Xue Mu not to talk nonsense, he was talking to the side: "Among our Daqing princes, the eldest prince and the second prince occupy the right time and place, but in terms of people and people, the eldest princess is better at winning people's hearts."
At this time, Xue Mu heard footsteps not far away.
He immediately interrupted Hu Daming and said, "Okay, stop talking."
Hu Daming also closed his mouth.
Not long after, a group of people arrived.
Several detectives from the Divine Catching Division, headed by Cheng Lu, came to the prison.
Cheng Lu glanced around, looked at Xue Mu, and then said: "Master Xue, our left deputy envoy is here to invite you."
Xue Mu was a little confused when he heard this.
[Deputy Ambassador Zuo? That god-catching boss? Nangong Xue’s senior brother? What are you looking for? 】
But he immediately stood up, nodded and said, "Okay."
After Xue Mu and the people from the Divine Catching Division left, Qin Hui asked Hu Daming: "Why are the people from the Divine Catching Division looking for Brother Mu for no reason?"
"I don't know, it's probably about the Tianlao thing. Don't worry, Brother Mu is still acting as the prison warden now, so there's nothing wrong with him." Hu Daming comforted him.
Xue Mu, who was walking on the road, thought so too.
He is now the acting prison warden.
Although there is the word "agent", he is still a big official.
If Zuo Yuheng of the Divine Catcher Division makes any small moves, he will not sit still and wait for death.
But just to be on the safe side.
Xue Mu still asked the detective next to him in advance: "Little brother, I would like to ask, does Deputy Zuo have anything to do with me?"
The policeman named Cheng Lu was polite and said with a smile: "Master Xue, Deputy Ambassador Zuo just asked me to invite Master Xue to come over. As for what we were discussing, I don't know. "
"Okay." Xue Mu also knew that there was no way for him to get the news in advance from these subordinates.
Even if these subordinates knew something, they would not tell it.
Xue Mu didn't want to waste any words and just met directly.
Not long after, Cheng Lu and others brought Xue Mu to a room.
Cheng Lu and Xue Mu said, "Master Xue, please wait here for a moment. The deputy envoy Zuo will be here soon."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, little brother. May I ask your name?" Xue Mu asked.
"Cheng Lu."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Detective Cheng."
Cheng Lu was a little surprised by Xue Mu's politeness.
Even after leaving, there were still a few detectives discussing quietly.
Without passing by, he waved his hand to shut them up and said, "Okay, we can't care about these things, so let's not discuss them."
At this time, Xue Mu was sitting on a chair, waiting calmly.
As for Zuo Yuheng, he was not in a hurry.
He decided to let it dry for a while and wait until it was almost ready before going over.
But just when Zuo Yuheng felt that Xue Mu would be waiting anxiously.
Little did he know that Nangong Xue was here.
"What are you doing here?"
When Nangong Xue passed by the backyard, she found the door to the office room was open. She just wanted to complain that her subordinates were not careful in their work and did not close the door when entering or exiting.
As soon as he walked in the door, he noticed Xue Mu sitting inside bored.
When Xue Mu heard it, it was Nangong Xue's voice.
He immediately stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Master Nangong."
"Why did you come to the Divine Catcher Division?" Nangong Xue asked.
"My lord, Deputy Envoy Zuo asked me to come." Xue Mu replied.
Nangong Xue was a little confused: "He is looking for you? Why is he looking for you?"
"I don't know, Deputy Envoy Zuo hasn't come yet." Xue Mu explained.
When Nangong Xue saw this, she walked out of the room and walked to the front hall.
As soon as she stepped into the front hall, she saw Zuo Yuheng sitting there leisurely drinking tea.
So she stepped forward and asked, "Senior brother."
"Hey? Junior sister, why are you back? Aren't you supposed to investigate the official bandit case today?" Zuo Yuheng said in surprise.
Nangong Xue replied: "I checked, and there are no clues. The area is backed by Hutuo Mountain and is very easy to hide. If you don't do a blanket search, you won't be able to find it at all."
"Hmm..." Zuo Yuheng nodded: "If that's the case, it will be difficult to do it with the manpower of our Divine Catcher Division."
Nangong Xue asked again: "By the way, senior brother, I just passed by the backyard and found Xue Yudian there. Are you looking for him?"
Zuo Yuheng didn't expect Nangong Xue to see Xue Mu, so he responded: "Yes, yes, yes! I even forgot about it! Look at my memory."
"What does senior brother want from him?" Nangong Xue wondered.
"It's nothing. I just want to ask him how the acting warden is doing? Because the commander told me that there is currently no suitable candidate from the court, so I thought of recommending him to become the official warden."
With that, he stood up and said to Nangong Xue, "I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go find him first."
"Then I'll go too. I happen to have something to talk to him about."
Nangong Xue also followed.
This made Zuo Yuheng a little embarrassed.
After a while, they came to the backyard.
As soon as he entered the door, Zuo Yuheng smiled and said: "Oh, I kept Xue Yudian waiting for a long time."
Xue Mu could recognize Zuo Yuheng's voice.
He has now recovered 2% of his vision, and combined with his sight insight, he can easily see Zuo Yuheng's general appearance based on the thermal image.
A bit like...a darkened version of Song Qingshu with duplicity?
Although he was temporarily taking charge of the prison warden's duties, Xue Mu still said respectfully: "The deputy envoy Zuo is busy with his work, so it is reasonable for my subordinates to wait here."
"Quick, please sit down."
Zuo Yuheng noticed Nangong Xue standing at the door from the corner of his eye, and smiled again: "Since you helped us successfully capture Chen Lishu last time in Guiyue Tower, I know you are a talent."
Xue Mu knew that he was talking politely, just to win the favor of Nangong Xue outside the door.
As for why he knew.
Because the thermal image of the round lump on the edge of the door is really too big.
Xue Mu immediately said humbly: "Deputy Zuo is so complimentary. I just did my duty. I am lucky to be able to work for the Divine Catcher Division and help Lord Nangong."
Nangong Xue, who was eavesdropping outside the door, raised the corners of her mouth slightly after hearing this.
But when she recalled the candied haws on a stick that day, her eyebrows frowned slightly again.
Zuo Yuheng saw that he mentioned Nangong Xue.
Then he deliberately brought the topic to Nangong Xue.
"By the way, Xue Yudian, what do you think of Lord Nangong? What's your initial impression of her?"
When he said this, he also emphasized: "You must tell the truth. You must know that I am a member of the Divine Catcher Division. I am the best at observing people's emotions and cannot lie."
Zuo Yuheng thought to himself that if Nangong Xue had a cold attitude on weekdays, this kid would definitely say some unfriendly words under his authority.
When Nangong Xue outside the door hears this, she will probably be angry with Xue Mu.
When Xue Mu heard this question, he knew that Zuo Yuheng was digging a hole.
He said calmly: "Master Nangong, she..."
"Like my girlfriend."
Zuo Yuheng: "Girlfriend?"
"Yeah, girlfriend."
