now.
Concubine Wan Gui Mo Xi'er was looking straight at Xue Mu.
Nangong Wei also stood up at this time, walked down the steps, came to Mo Xi'er, and asked in surprise: "Sister Xi'er, why are you here?"
Mo Xi'er explained: "Sister Weiwei, I was bored in the palace all day, so I thought of coming to your place to have fun."
"So that's it."
Mo Xi'er pretended to be surprised at this time: "Hey, why is there a young man here? Looking at his clothes, could he be the new eunuch?"
Xue Mu was speechless when he heard this.
Good guy, he lost his ability all of a sudden.
But he didn't dare to speak.
After all, the two women in front of him are both noble concubines.
He can't afford it.
Nangong Wei explained from the side: "Well, this is my nephew."
Mo Xi'er was a little surprised. She quickly stepped forward and observed: "Ah, why do you have such a young nephew?"
Nangong Wei then looked at Xue Mu and reminded: "Xiao Mu, the person speaking is Concubine Wan Gui, please bow to her."
"yes."
After saying that, Xue Mu saluted and said, "Xiaoguan Xue Mu has met Concubine Wan Gui."
Only then did Mo Xier notice that Xue Mu seemed invisible.
She then looked back at Nangong Wei and pointed at her eyes.
Nangong Wei nodded.
Mo Xi'er suddenly felt a little pity.
After all, he looks so handsome.
The body looks very upright again.
Why can't these eyes see?
What a pity.
"Sister Wei, is your nephew also an official in the court?" Mo Xi'er asked.
Nangong Wei nodded: "He is now a member of the 100th household of the Divine Catching Division."
"That's right. You have already become a member of the Divine Catcher Division at a young age. You have a bright future." After saying that, Mo Xi'er looked at Xue Mu again, her eyes seeming to light up.
Nangong Wei seemed to notice something strange and didn't want Mo Xi'er to talk to Xue Mu again.
She then said to Xue Mu: "Okay, Xiao Mu, take those supplements back. You and Xue'er remember to eat them."
"Yes, aunt." Xue Mu cupped his hands.
Then he also said to Mo Xi'er: "Concubine Wan Gui, please leave first."
"Okay." Although Mo Xi'er said this, her eyes still stayed in front of him.
Not long after, Xue Mu left.
After he left, Mo Xi'er couldn't wait to ask: "Sister Wei, how old is your nephew?"
"eighteen."
"Isn't that about the same age as me?"
"almost."
Nangong Wei knew what Mo Xi'er was thinking, so she pretended to ask, "By the way, have you been to His Majesty's bed recently?"
"Here we go." Mo Xi'er looked around.
Nangong Wei also understood and signaled the maids around her to step back.
After they left, Mo Xi'er complained: "He was lying there, and I was beating his legs."
"No more?" Nangong Wei was a little surprised.
"No more."
Mo Xi'er added: "His Majesty has three thousand beauties in the harem. It's good that I can meet him. Some of the sisters have never even seen your Majesty in their lives after entering the palace. And it is said that"
She came to Nangong Wei's ear and whispered: "Your Majesty has been obsessed with alchemy recently, and there are many prohibitions, one of which is not to touch women."
Nangong Wei laughed: "That's not very good, and you don't have to"
"Harm" Mo Xi'er was straightforward and sighed: "But it's too depressing to stay in this harem all the time. The people walking in front of me every day are either eunuchs or maids. It's not interesting at all."
Then she looked at Nangong Wei and said, "Sister Wei, if your nephew and your Xue'er come here in the future, why don't you call me? It would be fun to chat with more people."
Nangong Wei looked at her, although she smiled slightly, she was complaining in her heart.
[Don’t think I don’t know what you’re planning, that’s my nephew! I'm his aunt! He is my future niece-in-law! ! 】
[He can only be with Xue'er, don't think about it. 】
But she still said: "Okay, but they are sometimes very busy, and it is uncertain when they will enter the palace."
"It's okay." Mo Xi'er said excitedly: "As long as I can find two people to talk to me, I will be happy."
Nangong Wei listened and just smiled reluctantly and dealt with it.
Xue Mu left the palace and had to say that this carriage was quite comfortable to ride on.
But he knew that if this car appeared at the door of the Shenhua Division, it might cause controversy among some people.
So, he got out of the car.
Planning to walk back by myself.
Just at this time, another carriage came towards the other side.
Compared with Concubine Mu's carriage, the one next door is more magnificent.
But Xue Mu couldn't see it. He heard the sound of the carriage and stood aside waiting.
At this time, the eldest princess Zhao Ruoli, who was sitting in the carriage, put down the book in her hand. Just as the curtain was slightly opened, she accidentally saw Xue Mu beside her.
She looked again at the carriage next to her.
Something seemed to come to mind.
After returning to the palace, Zhao Ruoli asked Qing'er beside her: "Qing'er, do you still remember that the hairpin you got from throwing pots, where you put it?"
Qing'er asked: "Is the eldest princess asking about the hairpin that the blind man helped Her Royal Highness throw in that day?"
"Yeah." Zhao Ruoli nodded.
Qing'er immediately came to the box, took out the hosta, and handed it to the eldest princess with both hands.
Zhao Ruoli picked up the jade hairpin and said, "I haven't brought this hairpin with me before, have I?"
"Back to Princess Princess, no." Qing'er replied.
"This hairpin is pretty good. Let's add it to our daily wear from tomorrow on."
"Yes, Your Highness the Princess."
Zhao Ruoli returned the hairpin to Qing'er, and then continued to read the official document, but in her mind she remembered the scene of throwing pots.
Xue Mu returned to the Divine Catching Division.
With nothing to do, he opened the "Edict of Sin".
Sure enough, the reward came.
Because Zuo Yuheng was executed.
The information page about Zuo Yuheng in the "Edict of Sin" was completely deleted.
[Name: Xue Mu
Strength: Fourth level of pulse opening
Experience value: 6492/30000
Skills: Golden Bell Cover 50%, Turtle Breath Kung Fu 60%, Heavenly Thunder Fist 88%, Sight Insight 83%, "Wind Sword Slash" 40%, Vision 8%, and "Pure Yang Kung Fu" 4%.
Reward: 10,000 experience points, the opening time of Haishi. 】
Xue Mu looked a little excited.
He didn't expect that the reward for Zuo Yuheng's death would be so rich.
If I had known earlier, I would have died sooner.
Adding these 10,000 experience points, after the update, it now reaches 16,492.
Already halfway through.
As long as he endures it for a few more months, he might be able to advance to the fifth level of pulse opening.
Thinking of this, Xue Mu couldn't help but get excited.
And in addition to the experience value reward, there is also an eye-opening time of Hai hour.
Midnight is from 11pm to 1am.
Then Haishi is from 9 to 11 pm.
So these two times are quite hellish.
But better than nothing.
It’s already great if you can open your eyes.
In this case, I will have more time to see more of the opponent's posture when [fighting] Xu Ruyan.
Xue Mu felt much relieved for a moment.
"By the way, there are also supplements."
Anyway, there are no cases now. It’s better to improve your strength during the day. If you have nothing to do at night, then do it.
So Xue Mu crossed his legs and began to meditate.
However, at this time, Zheng Jun hurried over.
He looked at Xue Mu and said, "Brother Xue is not well."
When Xue Mu heard this, he asked, "What's wrong?"
"Something happened, the corpse was stolen."
"Fake corpse?"
Zheng Jun replied: "Someone just reported to the county that the deceased person in their family had faked his body."
"How to fake a corpse?" Xue Mu asked: "After death, he came back to life?"
"No, according to what they said, their bodies were not at home at all, but suddenly appeared in the room." Chen Baiming, who was behind Zheng Jun, answered.
When Xue Mu heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "Did you just talk about them?"
"Yes, a total of four families faked the corpse." Zhou Fu also explained.
"Four families stole the corpse together?" Xue Mu felt very confused.
He thought this was incredible.
How could a dead person come back to life?
I really think this is the world of cultivating immortals.
Then he asked: "Are we going to the scene?"
Zheng Jun shook his head: "This case is currently handed over to the county, but I think it is likely to be handed over to our Detective Division."
"Transfer it to our Divine Catcher Division, so you don't need to tell me." Xue Mu said calmly: "Master Nangong is here, and there are also brothers from the other nine departments."
"The problem is that one of the four households is under our jurisdiction." Zheng Jun explained awkwardly.
Xue Mu:.
He rubbed his temples and couldn't help but sigh: "What a headache."
When he got off duty in the afternoon, he met Nangong Xue.
Nangong Xue seems to be busy with something recently.
No one was seen all day.
When Xue Mu saw her, he greeted her politely: "Master Nangong."
When Nangong Xue heard him calling her, she said, "Didn't I say before that you can call when no one is around?"
"Sister Xue'er." Xue Mu was quick to speak and immediately changed his words.
When Nangong Xue heard this title, she nodded: "How is your recent martial arts training going? Is there any progress?"
"Yes, there has been some progress."
"Have you reached the third level now?" The naive Nangong Xue thought that Xue Mu was still in the late stage of the second level of pulse opening.
Xue Mu could only follow her words and said: "It's coming, it's coming."
He also didn't want to expose his strength too early.
Keeping a low profile is always a good thing.
After hearing this, Nangong Xue warned: "If you have nothing to do on weekdays, practice more. Increasing your strength is necessary for the Detective Division to handle cases."
"Yes, Sister Xue'er."
Nangong Xue saw him asking and answering questions, and for a moment she didn't know what to talk about.
She finally thought about the case that happened today, and said to him: "By the way, there was a corpse fraud case today. Do you know?"
"I know. I heard from General Zheng Qi. I think it's not a big case, right?" Xue Mu answered.
But Nangong Xue said: "The corpse fraud case is indeed not a big case, but their status is special."
"Special status?" Xue Mu was a little surprised.
"They were all originally convicted of treason and collaborating with the enemy and executed on the spot in the northwest desert of Daqing." Nangong Xue explained.
Xue Mu asked back: "Are those four people who pretended to be corpses soldiers?"
"Well, so this case concerns the Ministry of War. The case is currently being handled by the county. I guess the special nature of this case will eventually be taken over by the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Our Detective Division will not take on such a hot potato." Nangong Xue answered.
Xue Mu didn't expect that there was such a background.
He also nodded in agreement: "Yeah, it's better to go home early and then wash up and sleep."
After listening to his words, Nangong Xue asked tentatively: "When you go home at night, do you always eat with your cold sister?"
"Not entirely. Sometimes she comes back late, and sometimes she comes back early." Xue Mu said with a smile: "Do it yourself and have enough food and clothing. After all, I also have a craft, but sometimes I am rusty and need more practice before I can do it. Make something delicious.”
"Can you cook?" Nangong Xue frowned: "Can you see it with your eyes?"
"You can't see it, but there are only a few cooking utensils in total. You just need to get used to it." Xue Mu explained.
After hearing this, Nangong Xue felt a little embarrassed, so she signaled: "Okay, you can go back first."
"Yes, Sister Xue'er."
Afterwards, Xue Mu left.
After he left, Nangong Xue came to the kitchen of Shenqi Division.
At this time, the cooks in the kitchen were busy.
When they saw Nangong Xue, they immediately raised their hands and said, "Master Nangong."
Among them, the chief cook, who was a cook, asked fearfully: "Is there something wrong with Mr. Nangong?"
Nangong Xue looked around and then said: "It's nothing, you continue to work."
After saying that, she was ready to leave.
But after taking a step, he turned back.
"Ahem. If I want to learn to cook a dish, what dish is the easiest to learn?"
"Master Nangong wants to learn how to cook. That won't be a problem for us. We can teach you Kung Pao Chicken."
Nangong Xue listened and pretended to say: "I just want to try to see if cooking is a particular thing."
"Okay, Master Nangong, let's teach you."
Xue Mu returned home.
As soon as she opened the door, Leng Mei said, "Have you heard anything about corpse fraud today?"
Xue Mu laughed: "I didn't expect Sister Leng to be so well-informed."
"Of course, this corpse fraud has been spread from one place to another, and everyone in the capital knows about it."
Xu Ruyan on the side was a little surprised after hearing this: "Is it so scary?"
"Well, it is said that those four were soldiers. I heard that they were guilty of treason and collaborating with the enemy, and were executed on the spot. However, a year later, they suddenly appeared in their respective homes, which made people panic for a while." Leng Mei explained. road.
Xue Mu asked Xu Ruyan at this time: "Ruyan, you have a good memory. Can you remember the treason and collaboration with the enemy a year ago?"
Xu Ruyan thought for a while, then shook her head: "These are matters of the Ministry of War. When I helped my father sort out the files, they were all matters of the Ministry of Household Affairs, so I don't know much about it."
"Oh well."
Xue Mu didn't think much about it.
Anyway, if this case cannot be solved in the county, there is a high probability that it will be taken over by the Criminal Department.
As a small member of the Divine Catcher Division, he certainly wouldn't care about things he shouldn't.
But Leng Mei said at this time: "You'd better not touch this case. Nine times out of ten, this case will be handled by the people from the Detective Division."
Xue Mu was stunned and said in surprise: "How does Sister Leng know?"
"I guessed it~" Leng Mei deliberately teased: "You, don't think about being in the limelight~ When you have nothing to do, just spend more time with Ruyan."
"And Sister Leng." Xue Mu used sweet words.
Leng Mei smiled: "Stay with me more? Then I have a little pain in a place recently, can you help me rub it?"
"where?"
"here."
The next second, she put Xue Mu's hand on her left shoulder.
Xue Mu took a breath of air instantly.
