I have a cub with a tyrant

Chapter 6 Fire
He Lianchuan sat back on the dragon chair with long legs, resting his head on his right hand, narrowing his long and narrow phoenix eyes slightly, and his slender eyelashes tilted accordingly.

He was looking at the trembling Liu Que.

The line of sight seemed to pass through Liu Que's body again, seeing human nature and human greed.

He knew that Liu Que was corrupt and accepting bribes.

I just want to see if there is a bottom line to human greed.

It turns out that there is no such thing.

uninteresting.

"Drag it down and scrape all the grease off his body."

A fluttering sentence fixed Liu Que's death sentence.

Mu Shiyu's pupils shrank suddenly. On the first day of the court, the tyrant wanted to kill the Minister of the Household Department?

Hubu Shangshu raised his head with dull eyes, as if he had lost his soul in fright, opened his mouth, but made no sound, and fell limp and powerless to the ground.

Only when the guards outside the Golden Luan Hall came in and dragged him away did he find his voice.

"Your Majesty, forgive me, I am guilty! I beg Your Majesty to spare my life!!!"

The fat body writhed like a pig struggling before dying.

The ministers looked solemn and quiet like chickens. No one dared to move, nor did they dare to stand up and speak for the Minister of the Household Department.

Although the tyrant is cruel, he is not stupid. He must have sufficient evidence to attack him.

Those who stand up at this time are in vain.

"ah!!!"----

The shrill screams disappeared quickly. For the ministers, time passed extremely slowly, but in fact, it was not even time for a stick of incense. Liu Que, who was left with only skin and bones, was carried to the gate of the main hall.

"Your Majesty, the torture is over, the fat is 210 pounds."

The voice of the commander of Shenwuwei made everyone feel as if they were in the twelfth lunar month of winter. The entrance of the main hall was very close to the officials in smoky blue court uniforms. While everyone was afraid, they couldn't help looking at the corpse.

When the wind blows, the smell of blood comes.

Instantly, my scalp felt numb, I covered my mouth, and tried my best not to spit it out with every muscle.

Mu Shiyu also saw it. When she was studying medicine, she also watched Master dissect a dead body from a distance, but it was far less shocking than today.

One second was a living person, the next second only skin and bones remained.

"Very well, throw the body into the tiger park."

"As ordered!"

Shenwu dragged the rack of rotten meat and left, leaving no trace except for the unpleasant smell.

He Lianchuan stretched his brows and leaned on the dragon chair with his long legs crossed, his obsidian satin robe swayed to the ground, and glanced at the tense civil and military officials.

Fu Gongjian said in time: "If you have something to play, you will leave the court if you have nothing to do."

No one dared to move, only Prime Minister Xie, who was wearing purple court clothes, stood up, saluted and said:
"Your Majesty, the merchant banks in Dongqi City are unwilling to unify the currency exchange, and still want to use the former Dongqi coins. Liu Que has been hiding it for a long time. The bank is spread all over the major cities of the North Kingdom. Now forcible intervention may affect the economy of the North Kingdom."

Hearing some boring things again, He Lianchuan propped his temples, and said expressionlessly: "Let Beishang Qianxing ban it, and kill those who resist."

He would like to see, which is more important, money or life.

Prime Minister Xie's throat choked, and he swallowed back the solution he wanted to say, lowered his eyes, and said respectfully:

"The minister takes orders."

Prime Minister Xie returned to his original position, and the officials were still quiet. The two important matters have been finished, and there is no need to discuss the remaining small matters in the morning court.

Just when Fu Gongjian was about to call for retreat, Zhao Shen, the commander of Shengjing's soldiers, stood up.

"Your Majesty, when the Yuliu Street in Nancheng was on fire yesterday and the city moat was diverted to put out the fire, a few remnants of the old country with excellent lightness skills sneaked into the city. We don't have such a master in the army, and we can't trace their whereabouts for a while."

Zhao Shen paused, looked at the position of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and frowned slightly, "We searched all night and found no trace of the traitor. We suspect that someone in Nancheng is helping the traitor hide."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of all the ministers were different, but most of them all looked at the new Nancheng Inspector from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and their eyes were like countless needles on Mu Shiyu.

Only then did He Lianchuan raise his eyes and glance at the female official who was personally appointed yesterday. In the masculine court hall, the appearance was excellent, and the petite Mu Shiyu seemed particularly disobedient.

But the pretty little face was extremely calm, with a powerful aura that one couldn't ignore.

"How is the lightness skill of the inspector of Nancheng?"

Under the gaze of everyone, Mu Shiyu moved to the vacant seat in the nave, knelt down and saluted very politely, raised his head to meet He Lianchuan's gaze,

"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister's light work is not bad, and he will definitely assist the government to catch the traitor as soon as possible."

At this moment, like everyone else, she is just an official serving the country, and facing He Lianchuan is just the simplest relationship between monarch and minister. There is no distracting thought in her mind, and she is not allowed to make any mistakes.

Director Xu was taken aback when his attention was suddenly on Duchasi's side, and secretly heaved a sigh of relief seeing that Mu Shiyu's behavior was correct.

Zhao Shen was skeptical. After all, General Mu's daughter had never shown her martial arts in public. Besides, Qinggong was not easy to learn with hard work. You must have enough talent to cultivate to the level of a master.

However, if you try it, you will know whether she is really a master.

He Lianchuan stared at Mu Shiyu thoughtfully, and suddenly thought of the scene when he was facing a desperate situation ten years ago, Mu Qiyin escaped from the siege with his extremely light kung fu and brought him seriously injured.

At that time, Mu Shiyu was only eight years old, and he dared to drive a carriage alone to meet them, which was enough to show his courage.

Later, when the Mu family took him back to Snow Country, Mu Shiyu also acted mature beyond his age and took care of him all the way.

In his heart, the Mu family is different from other families of military generals after all, and looking at the figure kneeling on the ground at this time, it is inexplicably an eyesore.

He Lianchuan turned his head slightly, looked away, sat upright, raised his hand in Mu Shiyu's direction, and said:
"Go now, catch the living."

"Yes!"

With such a difficult job when he first took office, Mu Shiyu seriously suspected that he was exhausted when he took office as the inspector of Nancheng.

As a result, the early dynasty came to an end, and Mu Shiyu walked out of the Golden Palace with Zhao Can.

Originally, today's plan was to enter the Nancheng Inspection Institute to familiarize himself with the business first, but he was kicked out of the shelves inexplicably.

Mu Shiyu looked at Zhao Shen's obvious dark circles, and sighed inaudibly.

"Time to rain."

Some familiar voices came from behind, Mu Shiyu paused slightly, then speeded up to catch up with Zhao Shen, but the owner of that voice also strode to her side, walking side by side with her.

Zhao Shen turned his head and glanced suspiciously, "General Chu?"

Mu Shiyu could no longer pretend not to hear, and looked at Chu Yuan, who was a head taller than her, wearing a blue court dress, handsome and elegant, with soft eyes and excellent manners.

"General Chu, what's the matter?" She said in a rather cold tone, without any emotion in her eyes, and looked at him calmly.

"Yesterday, I sent someone to inquire about something related to the fire case in Nanfeng Tower, which may be helpful to you."

Chu Yuan stared closely at Mu Shiyu who was wearing a smoky blue court uniform, his voice was as gentle as jade, and there was no trace of a battle-tested killing spirit.

Yesterday afternoon, Chu Yuan learned that she had become the inspector of Nancheng, so he naturally investigated what happened in Nancheng.

Nanfeng Building?
Seeing that Chu Yuan was extremely serious, Mu Shiyu ignored Chu Yuan's betrayal in the dream for the time being. He didn't expect Chu Yuan to be so well informed. He wondered, "Where is Nanfeng Tower? A restaurant or an art gallery?"
