"Mr. Zheng Qi, are you free?"
Xue Mu returned to the Divine Catching Division and immediately found Zheng Jun.
Zheng Jun thought that Xue Mu had something for him to do, so he immediately said: "Brother Xue, please tell me."
"Do you know Cao Peizheng?" When facing Zheng Jun, Xue Mu did not hide anything, but asked directly.
"Cao Peizheng?" Zheng Jun thought for a while and asked: "Brother Xue is talking about the head of the Ministry of Personnel, Cao Peizheng, Lord Cao?"
"Head of the Ministry of Personnel?" Xue Mu continued to ask: "Does General Zheng Qi know the residence where he lives?"
"I know, it's on East Street."
After getting this answer, Xue Mu could basically conclude that what the beggar said was true.
He asked Zheng Jun: "Can you find some information about Cao Peizheng?"
"Brother Xue, what's going on?" Zheng Jun asked worriedly, "Is it related to the case we are investigating?"
"It's possible. I'm not sure yet. I won't know until I finish checking." Xue Mu answered.
Zheng Jun immediately looked back at Zhou Fu and said, "Zhou Fu, hurry up and get all the information about Mr. Cao."
Xue Mu was a little surprised: "There is so much information in the Divine Catcher Division?"
"The Divine Catcher Division is in contact with His Majesty the Imperial Court, so we have information about every adult here." Zheng Jun responded.
When Xue Mu heard this, he thought that this must be the Jin Yiwei from the Ming Dynasty.
If that's the case, wouldn't it be possible for the position of commander of the Divine Catching Division to directly communicate with His Majesty?
Xue Mu even thought that if he could achieve the position of commander, he might not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life.
The power status and strength are there.
When the time comes, combined with the Chunyang Pill, Tianguang, Xu Ruyan, and Leng Mei will get tired of each other.
It's no problem to charge hard.
But he thought about it, as the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger.
Although he has been in Daqing for less than half a year, he has heard a lot about it.
That was the emperor of Daqing. The so-called Emperor Qing was not a benevolent king.
If something goes wrong, you will be punished by death.
At that time, even if you are strong, you may not be able to match the thousands of troops of the imperial court.
Forget it, let's aspire to be a commander now.
After all, Leng Mei said it.
As long as she becomes a commanding officer, she will be able to do it.
Xue Mu is a vulgar person.
Naturally, you will not be satisfied with just cold and charming words.
Not long after, Zhou Fu brought a file.
He opened the file and said to Xue Mu: "Cao Peizheng, whose ancestral home is Jianghuai, is forty years old. He is the head of the Ministry of Personnel. His father was the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. His wife is the Chen family. She is the daughter of Chen Yan, who was the Minister of Rites. I have a son and three daughters, the eldest of whom is named Cao De."
Listening to what Zhou Fu said, Xue Mu couldn't help but nod.
Then he asked: "Do officials like this always have carriages in their houses?"
"Yes, they will more or less be equipped with a few horses and carriages to facilitate travel." Zheng Jun replied.
"What about going out of the city in the past? Do you need a pass or something?" Xue Mu continued to ask.
Zheng Jun nodded: "Generally speaking, you need an information certificate to leave the city gate."
"What about tonight?"
"Night? Usually few people come in and out of the city at night, unless"
"Unless what?"
Zheng Jun explained: "Unless you agree with the generals guarding the city in advance, these require officials or family members of a certain level."
After Xue Mu heard this, he also nodded.
Then he stood up and walked to Nangong Xue's room.
"Dong dong dong!"
"who?"
"Master Nangong, I am Xue Mu." Xue Mu answered outside the door.
When Nangong Xue heard this, she immediately opened the door.
After taking a look at the environment outside, he said: "Come in."
After closing the door, Nangong Xue asked: "Didn't I ask you to go early this morning?"
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Nangong. When I got up this morning, I found that my waist no longer hurts, so I thought I wouldn't bother Mr. Nangong." Xue Mu replied.
After hearing this, Nangong Xue had a hint of disappointment on her face.
But she quickly asked: "Then what are you doing here?"
Xue Mu told Nangong Xue what he found.
Nangong Xue hesitated for two seconds after listening to his words.
"You mean, on your way back last night, you heard a carriage in front of a mansion, and then a few crying boys and girls got out?"
When she heard Xue Mu say this, she was obviously a little surprised.
Xue Mu nodded: "And this morning I went around the mansion specifically and asked a beggar. He also confirmed that in the past half month, there were many people in Cao Peizheng's mansion many nights in the past half month. A carriage is parked at the door."
After hearing this, Nangong Xue thought for a few seconds.
She then said: "I know about this. Let's go there in the afternoon."
"Us?" Xue Mu was stunned for a moment.
"You are in charge of this case now. Instead of you and me going there, do you still want me to go by myself?" Nangong Xue frowned and said with some displeasure.
Xue Mu immediately shook his head: "No, no, sir, that's absolutely not what I meant. I just thought that you don't need to go there personally for this kind of thing. I can go by myself."
"Cao Peizheng is also the head of the civil service department. He may not take you seriously as a small member of a hundred households, so let me go." Nangong Xue reminded.
Xue Mu responded: "Okay."
After saying this, the two fell into silence briefly.
Seeing this, Xue Mu responded: "Sir, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
Nangong Xue looked at his waist and wanted to say something, but in the end she hummed.
At this time, Xue Mu took two steps and then turned back.
Nangong Xue thought that she would be asked to help massage her waist, and even thought that she would have to refuse later.
Unexpectedly, Xue Mu said: "Sir, the weather has been a bit dry recently, please drink more water."
Nangong Xue:
"I have a sachet here. It can refresh the heart and mind. It's very good. If you don't mind it, you can wear it." Xue Mu cupped his hands and said.
Nangong Xue looked at the sachet in his hand and pretended to be calm: "Then put it aside."
"yes!"
Xue Mu went out.
Nangong Xue came to the table after he closed the door, picked up the sachet placed on it, and smelled it carefully.
The smell on this sachet is quite refreshing.
However, besides being fresh, Nangong Xue seemed to feel that it also had a flowery smell.
Heather?
No matter what, as a boss, you have to accept the kindness of your subordinates.
She looked at the original sachet on her waist, thought about it, and took it off.
Xue Mu walked out of Nangong Xue's room.
As for why he gave her a sachet.
It's nothing more than trying to please his immediate boss.
As long as she is happy, she will definitely forget about the Lantern Festival that night.
If the boss is happy, his life will naturally be more comfortable.
At this time, he happened to pass by Tianlao.
Think about it.
Xue Mu finally walked in.
There is already a candidate for the Prison Code of Tianlao.
The court has already sent someone.
He is a young man who is not very old.
According to Hu Daming and others, he was the son of a member of the Communist Party of China. He said he bribed the people above him and then reported him to the police.
After the young people came to the prison, they served every jailer with tobacco and alcohol.
This also made Hu Daming and the others have a good impression of this young prison officer.
While they were chatting, Xue Mu walked in.
When Hu Daming saw it, he immediately shouted: "Hey! Brother Mu!"
"Brother Mu!"
"Brother Mu!"
Everyone stood up immediately.
After hearing this, the young warden on the side immediately raised his hands and said: "Brother Mu."
Xue Mu was no longer in the prison, so he kept a low profile and said, "I just happened to pass by to see you, so don't be too surprised."
He then pretended to ask: "I heard that a new prison master has arrived, right?"
At this time, the young prison officer immediately took two steps forward and made a gesture of cupping his hands: "Master Xue Baihu, I have met you, Liu Cheng."
"We are all colleagues, so there is no need to be so polite." Xue Mu signaled.
At this time, Liu Cheng glanced at Xue Mu and was a little surprised.
Hu Daming saw Liu Cheng's expression and explained in a low voice: "Brother Mu can't see."
Xue Mu then smiled and said, "Yes, I suffer from eye disease."
This impressed Liu Cheng even more.
He said again: "Since I came to this prison, I have learned from the Da Ming brothers that Xue Baihu's various heroic deeds, especially the previous prison escape and counterinsurgency, are so amazing."
Xue Mu smiled and said: "These things happened a long time ago, let's not mention them again."
"By the way, I heard that Liu Yudian's family is engaged in business?" he asked smoothly.
Liu Cheng nodded: "Well, my family does run some small businesses. My father has wanted me to study well since I was a child and serve the court as an official. It's a pity."
He smiled sheepishly: "I am stupid and have never passed the exam, so I can only rely on my father."
Liu Cheng is also straightforward and does not shy away from the fact that he is his father.
"It doesn't matter." Xue Mu laughed: "How many people are envious of you."
Being able to compete with dad is a kind of luck.
And luck is also part of strength.
What's more, Liu Cheng is self-aware and does not succeed as a villain. Naturally, Xue Mu will not look down on such a person, but rather thinks highly of him.
"By the way, what's your family's business?"
"My family is a bodyguard."
"Oh?" Xue Mu was a little surprised: "Are you a escort?"
"Yeah." Liu Cheng smiled sheepishly: "My family comes from a bodyguard family, but my parents didn't want me to take this path, so they asked me to come here. I'm lucky enough to meet you all."
Hu Daming and others also smiled at this time: "Our Liu Yudian is really good!"
"Yes, with such a prison code, our life will be comfortable!"
Xue Mu thought for a while and then asked: "Then do you know the Leng family's escort agency?"
"Leng family?" Cheng Chuan shook his head in confusion and said, "I don't know them."
Xue Mu didn't pay attention. He smiled and said, "Maybe there are too many escort agencies in the capital, so it's normal that you don't recognize them."
But unexpectedly, Liu Cheng explained awkwardly at this time: "My escort agency is currently the largest in Beijing. Basically other escort agencies will cooperate with ours. It seems that there is no Leng family, but I may have remembered it wrong. I will go back and ask Ask my dad.”
As soon as these words came out, Xue Mu frowned.
"Then ask your father and tell me when you have time."
"good."
With that said, Xue Mu walked towards the D-level cell.
On the way there, his expression gradually became serious.
"If there is no Leng family escort agency, then Leng Mei"
