Fairy, Please Let Me Explain Chapter 617

Chapter 617 Mu Qing

The slanted sunlight shines through the window lattice into the dark and quiet hall.

Zhou Chen was sitting behind a sandalwood desk, holding his chin in one hand and holding a document in the other hand, browsing through it with drooped eyelids, with a sense of laziness all over his body.

The document in his hand was a message from Nanlongzhou next door.

The boss over there, I hope they in Xizezhou can reinforce some silver coins or send some people to help as appropriate.

When he first received such a letter, he could not say that he did not take it seriously.

After all, the situation written in this document is extremely urgent. Without reinforcements, I am afraid that the overall situation will fall short.

And after he had gathered manpower and supplies, he went to Mr. Mu overnight to make a report, but he got a simple seven-word reply.

No money, no one, let him go.

After questioning, Zhou Chen discovered that the letter asking for help was filled with high-end Spring and Autumn calligraphy.

The friendly troops next door are here to fight against the autumn wind.

They are not taken seriously in Xizezhou, so the leaders of the Black Scale Guards from the neighboring states will come to take advantage of their three melons and two jujubes every once in a while.

Since your Black Scale branch in West Jersey is dispensable anyway, you might as well give up your limited resources to our other states.

After reading the last word and confirming that it contained another set of Spring and Autumn calligraphy, Zhou Chen directly burned the document asking for help as waste paper.

Handily took out a cigarette from a wooden box on the desk and lit it with a fire stick. Zhou Chen leaned on the back of the chair behind him and began to smoke with half-closed eyes.

The mellow tobacco enters the lungs, takes away the heart and is sprayed in the air.

Zhou Chen is actually quite troubled recently.

Probably there is going to be a big move from above. Since the beginning of the spring, the entire Black Scale Guard in Great Yan has begun to operate at a high load, and the middle and high-level people in various places have basically entered a 12-hour rotation working state. As for Nishizawa, it can't be said that there is nothing wrong at all. It can only be said that they can get off work after working two hours a day.

If the third young master had not come to Xizezhou for inspection, Zhou Chen might have felt at ease and left work to visit the brothels.

The bronze-skinned and black-skinned herders here in the Western Desert have a unique flavor.

But now even if the matters at hand are dealt with, Zhou Chen has to be patient and continue to work every other day.

Last time, the Third Young Master lost a lot of favor by asking questions without knowing anything. If the other party came to inspect the house again and found that he was enjoying himself in the brothel, he would probably not have to do it in the future.

Sighing out another puff of smoke, Zhou Chen shook his fingertips, dusted some of the fireworks off the incense burner, and muttered helplessly:

“It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, let alone engage in intelligence.”

Out of the fourteen states of Dayan, I am afraid that only the Black Scale Guards on Xizezhou have not yet established a complete intelligence network. There are many reasons for this result, including a late start, low allocations, and the newly promoted talents were basically snatched away by the leaders of the Black Scale Guards from other states at the year-end banquet.

But in addition, Zhou Chen also saw some other clues.

His immediate boss, Mr. Mu, seems to have started to act.

The directors of each continent of the Blackscale Guard have great autonomy.

In the words of the Third Young Master, the directors of each continent can fully exert their subjective initiative.

As long as the task is completed and does not involve the core interests of the prime minister's office, no matter what the means.

In other words, you can use third-rate means to get money and people.

If you have the ability, even if one of your own is placed in the position of magistrate, the Prime Minister's Office will not stop you, but can build momentum for you in the court.

And what about this Mr. Mu?

As far as Zhou Chen knows,

Although Mr. Mu is doing his best to complete the tasks assigned by Di'an, once the allocated money and food are used up, he can only wait until next year to continue.

Hardly any subjective initiative is exerted.

After more than ten years, Mr. Mu, not to mention the Tachao City, the most profitable city in the Western Desert, even the intelligence business of the Black Scale Guards was in a semi-abandoned state, with only an additional 100,000 grains of silver being taken in every year.

When he first discovered this, Zhou Chen was very happy and free.

Because the third young master is dead, there is a high probability that he will not continue to be promoted along this line, so it is of course a great pleasure to have such a sensible and unpretentious boss.

But knowing that the Third Young Master was not dead, Zhou Chen had already begun to have some complaints against his arrogant immediate boss these days.

If you are short of money to do things, then get money.

With the violent organization Black Scale Guard in hand, there are too many ways to make money.

If you don't do it, leave these things to him. Zhou Chenlai, a continent, can earn you at least two to three million taels of silver every year.

But unfortunately, Mr. Mu returned to Fucheng three days ago. Zhou Chen went to him to express his wish, but was rejected by the other party.

Your mother's maidservant's.

You don't want to make progress, but I still want to make progress.

Putting out the last burnt cigarette **** in the incense burner, Zhou Chen gently raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice with a hint of thought:

"The authority of the Zhenxi Prefecture Division is still quite large. Maybe through the relationship with the Third Young Master, I can kill first and then report, and directly overtake him?"

　　“What kind of agent do you want to override?”

The gentle male voice suddenly sounded outside the door, causing Zhou Chen to subconsciously touch the sword on the table. However, after recognizing the familiar voice of the other party, he quickly stepped forward to open the door, and used a spell to clear away the smoke in the room. Sweep away.

The afternoon sun shone in from the open door. Zhou Chen's eyes slightly adjusted to the light and he looked at the person outside the door. He immediately coughed lightly and said with a smile:

“Young Master is indeed a genius. Now he can penetrate the sound-absorbing formation without being discovered by Zhou.”

While flattering softly, Zhou Chen gently looked at the other person's expression. After discovering the gloom between his brows, his heart sank unconsciously.

While thinking about it, a fragrant wind passed by me.

The short woman next to the third young master has already entered the room by herself against the white silk curtain.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Chen quickly moved aside:

“Young master, please come.”

Xu Yuan glanced at the interior layout without responding, walked directly to the main seat and sat down.

This branch of the Black Scale Guard is located in an inconspicuous residential area, a not too big courtyard.

Took off the curtain above his head and placed it on the table. Xu Yuan looked at the slightly embarrassed Grandmaster Zhou opposite him. Thinking of the cynical look on his face when they first met, Xu Yuan shook his head slightly:

“Mr. Zhou, what do you want to do through my relationship?”

The moment Zhou Chen heard this question, he secretly complained in his heart.

His words were heard by the Third Young Master either sooner or later.

The Third Young Master will most likely be dissatisfied if he doesn't report it. If he does, he will offend his immediate boss, and Mr. Mu is unlikely to be fired because of this.

However, after a brief thought, Zhou Chen immediately came to a conclusion.

Everything he does now is based on the relationship between the three young masters. He prioritizes and takes the interests of the third young master as the basis for everything.

After careful consideration of the words, Zhou Chen briefly introduced what he had just thought about, and then carefully waited for the Third Young Master's instructions.

After calming down his thoughts for a while, Xu Yuan looked at Zhou Chen and sighed softly, and uttered four words:

“It's too late.”

Hearing this, Zhou Chen was slightly stunned. He subconsciously wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xu Yuan raising his hand.

After summarizing this information, Xu Yuan looked at Zhou Chen with a slight sigh in his eyes:

“Mr. Zhou, you only see such a simple test now?

“Mr. Mu's actions are well known to Di'an. Is it really because Lou Ji transferred you as my direct descendant here to let you retire here?”

Ruined.

Zhou Chen's mind went blank for a moment, but then became active again.

No, it's not over yet.

If the Third Young Master is ready to give up on him, then it is impossible to say such things to him.

Zhou Chen immediately bowed solemnly and said in a deep voice: "Zhou Chen is unworthy of the kindness of the young master. Please punish him."

“Stop pretending to me here.”

Xu Yuan leaned back on the chair slightly tiredly and said calmly:

“Being able to make changes immediately after seeing me is barely qualified, but remember, this is the last time.”

“Yes.” Zhou Chen bent down even lower.

Xu Yuan did not let Zhou Chen refrain from courtesy. He let him stand for a while and suddenly asked softly:

“You just said that Mr. Mu has returned to Zhenxi Mansion?”

Zhou Chen tentatively raised his eyes and glanced at Xu Yuan's expression. When he saw the other person's expression, his heart trembled unconsciously and he said honestly:

“Yes, Mr. Mu returned to the state capital three days ago.”

Xu Yuan lightly pressed the table with his long index finger and said:

“Go and prepare a communication crystal, and then ask Mr. Mu to come see me.”

“The communication source crystal will be ready immediately.”

Zhou Chen hesitated slightly and reminded in a low voice:

“But Mr. Mu, with your current status as Young Master”

With a crisp sound, a token was thrown at Zhou Chen's feet.

Xu Yuan waved his hands impatiently and whispered:

　　"The token of Chief Black Scale, when you see an order, you go as quickly as you see a person."

"yes."

Zhou Chen picked up the token and left the room in a flash.

Before leaving, I unconsciously glanced back at the room, and met the indifferent eyes of the third young master.

Shuddering unconsciously, Zhou Chen immediately rushed to where Mu Qing was.

In the past few years, the Third Young Master has changed a lot.

After Zhou Chen left,

Tianye sat down directly on the table, crossed her legs, and drew circles in the air with her soft toes:

“Is such an unmotivated person worthy of your protection?”

“Have good abilities and be loyal.”

“If he was truly loyal, he wouldn't wait until you showed up to change.”

“Being loyal to interests is also loyal.”

Xu Yuan glanced at her and said casually: "If you can survive this incident, you can be useful."

Hearing this, Tianye's red lips hidden under the white gauze curtain curled up slightly:

“You seem to have figured out what to do?”

Xu Yuan nodded slightly and whispered in a calm voice:

“Your joke earlier reminded me of something I had overlooked before.”

"That sentence?"

“That native dog.”

“Eh~”

Tianye's eyes flashed with a smile, and he turned around with a chuckle. He stepped on Xu Yuan's thigh with his bare feet and pressed gently, saying with a smile: "Do you think that dog is really a wolf?"

“Of course not possible.”

Xu Yuan casually held the girl's ankle and wanted to move her away, but when he found that she couldn't move it, he gave up and said softly: "If the desert wolf could enter the city, Zhenxi Fucheng would have fallen long ago."

The girl habitually crossed her arms across her chest, tapped her chin with her index finger, and tilted her head:

“If it's not this, then what on earth did I remind you?”

Xu Yuan took a deep breath and whispered:

“The possibility of the Three Saints attacking the city.”

"oh?"

“I didn't believe that Mu Xingyi's family attacked the city for no reason before, but if Li Junwu and the Desert Goddess are hiding in Zhenxifu City, then they have a reason to attack the city.”

"Li Junwu is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Zhenxi. Why should she hide it when she returns to the city?"

"That woman Li Junwu is not an idiot. Based on what she and the Desert Goddess have experienced and the information, the Zhenxi Mansion must have been infiltrated by the Mu Chamber of Commerce. When she is not sure whether it is friend or foe, she will only trust her father, the Marquis of Zhenxi. "

"That makes sense. But I remember that the devilish couple probably have no grudge against the Desert Goddess."

“No.”

Xu Yuan nodded lightly and glanced down at his palm: "But that holy ghost should have some kind of deal with the Qin family. I was bewitched by it before in Di'an City."

Tianye raised his voice and said with a sweet smile: "Are you sure that this relationship can allow that family to risk the world's disapproval to attack the city?"

“I'm not sure, but it's possible, and who said it must be just the three of them attacking the city?”

“You mean the Lord of the Ancient Abyss?”

“Afterwards, the fall of Zhenxi Fucheng was blamed on Gu Yuan. Now Dayan does not have the energy to cross the Wanxing Mountains to attack Gu Yuan.”

After thinking seriously for a moment, Tian Ye stepped on Xu Yuan's thigh with Tian Yan's bare feet, curved her beautiful eyes and laughed softly:

“Then are you planning to notify the Zhenxi Mansion garrison in the name of the Prime Minister's Mansion?”

“I have to confirm whether Li Junwu is in the city first.”

Xu Yuan glanced at the other party's bare feet, and a smile finally appeared between his gloomy brows, and whispered: "The method is also very simple. I will ask Zhou Chen, the great master, to roar in a voice that only she and I know. If she is in Zhenxi Mansion, she will naturally come to me. "

Tianye curled his lips and said teasingly:

“You look happy.”

“As long as this can be confirmed, the solution to the problem has emerged, so why can't we be happy?”

“Really?” Tianye was undecided.

Xu Yuan ignored the teasing look in her eyes and asked softly:

“You should be able to sense the Willow Ghost Blade, right?”

"able."

“Has everything inside been swallowed up? It's too far away and I can't sense it clearly.”

“I'm just a witness, I can't tell you, brother~”

Xu Yuan smacked his lips, not expecting the other party to reveal the information.

After the words fell, the two fell into silence.

After burning the incense, Tian Ye suddenly jumped down from the desk, glanced in the direction of the door with interest, smiled slightly, and stood silently behind the desk.

The next moment, there was a knock on the door.

Soon,

A handsome middle-aged man wearing a black hooded suit slowly walked into the hall.

Mu Qing is here.

The moment he saw the other party, Xu Yuan suddenly understood why the other party acted badly.

The other party is injured,

And upon that wound,

The ominous aura of madness is occupying the Willow Ghost Blade.
