Chapter 84 Bodyguard and Secretary?(1/2)

After carefully inspecting the scene again, Chen Mu left the house.

The law enforcement elder who had been waiting outside saw Chen Mu coming out and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Captain Chen, have any new discoveries?"

“I’ve discovered it…”

Chen Mu walked to the basin not far away to wash his handles, and said with a smile: "There is indeed some twists in the case, but the garden rain is not enough."

The law enforcement elder looked disappointed.

He had a little hope just now, hoping that the rain in the garden is innocent, but unfortunately...

"Captain Chen, can you discuss something with you..."

The law enforcement elder squeezed out an ugly smile and said, pulling Chen Mu to a remote place and secretly stuffed him a stack of silver notes.

"Captain Chen, this is indeed because our temple is incompetent in discipline. Such a scum appears. This is my responsibility. But can you please make some adjustments and not let the storm in this case be a big deal..."

Looking at the silver notes in front of him, Chen Mu was speechless.

As the law enforcement elder of the temple, it is ironic that he actually bribed the toll.

Moreover, the amount of silver bills is also quite large, so I am afraid that there are 10,000 taels in total. No wonder people say that the temple is as incense as rich as oil.

It's normal to think about it.

This Hanwu Temple is the only Buddhist temple in Qingyu County. It costs a lot of money every year, plus donations from some wealthy businessmen...

Wow, I can’t imagine my income.

Chen Mu glanced at the abbot in the distance and smiled and said, "What did the abbot give?"

"No, no, absolutely not!"

The law enforcement elder denied, "This is my own decision, and there is no other meaning. I just want to make friends with Chief Chen. In the future, Chen Mu often comes to my temple as a guest. I will definitely treat it well..."

The law enforcement elder begged.

It’s not their fault that they chose to bribe Chen Mu in this way.

That Miss Lu has a good status. If she really attracts the Nether Guard, the Hanwu Temple will probably become history.

According to Mingwei's usual style of behavior, many people will be affected by that time.

No matter what, I have to suppress this matter.

Chen Mu sighed.

He understood the other party's fear, and he did not intend to provoke the Ming Guards to harm these monks.

After all, people are dead, so there is no need to let others be implicated.

Thinking of this, Chen Mu patted the other party on the shoulder: "Elder, don't worry, I don't want to make a big deal about this. The little master Yuanyu went to stop him because he saw someone stealing fruit, but he caused a misunderstanding.

Yuanyu also chose to hang himself because of guilt, so the matter was over. Go and bury Yuanyu's body, and teach his disciples well in the future."

Hearing Chen Mu's words, the stone that the law enforcement elder pressed on his heart finally fell.

He grabbed Chen Mu's arm, his face full of gratitude: "Thank you, Captain Chen, thank you, Captain Chen, thank you so much..."

At this moment, he was even a little ashamed.

Before, Chen Mu suffered such a great humiliation in the temple. Not only did he not hold grudges, but he was still so open-minded.

This kind of mind is also admirable.

"Captain Chen, you must keep this little meaning."

The elder picked up the silver note.

Chen Mu's face suddenly sank: "Elder, who do you think I, Mr. Chen, are you? Is there anyone who tests cadres like this? Which cadre can withstand the test of you!"

"This...this..."

"Not to be an example!"

Chen Mu stuffed the silver notes into his arms and said coldly.

...

After leaving Hanwu Temple, Chen Mu was in a heavy mood.

The feeling of forcing bribes is painful.

When I think of the lack of a clean and honest captain in this world, I feel as guilty as the surging river.

After going back, you have to buy ten kilograms of fresh abalone to hold yourself to death, which is also a punishment.

Chen Mu thought to himself.

Of course, accepting bribes is a matter of opinion.

In the officialdom of this era, if you really want to keep your innocence, you must be an alien and object of exclusion in the eyes of others.

No matter it is a little ghost or a king of hell, there is no one on his body that is not black.

Just talking about Gao Yuanchun, he scrapes a lot of oil every year, but it does not prevent him from being a competent official in the eyes of the people.

Alas, I can only say that the environment is like this.

"Two, let's just do this for the time being. Don't quarrel outside, so as not to cause harm to the temple."

Chen Mu reminded the two girls.

"Don't worry, brother-in-law, I know the importance of it."

Qingluo smiled sweetly.

Although Xue Caiqing didn't say anything, Chen Mu believed that this woman was responsible.

The three of them walked out of the temple gate and happened to face a monk in white.

The monk carried his luggage and was covered in dust.

He has red lips and white teeth, and is quite handsome. His white monk's robe sets off his slender figure, which has a bit of a worldly aura.

"The little monk is so handsome."

Qingluo's clear and bright Jianshui's eyes bloomed with spirit.

The handsome monk smiled shyly, put his hands together, and his voice was as warm as water: "The female donor is also beautiful." The obviously frivolous sentences were read out from him, but they didn't feel annoying.

"Master Perseverance?"

Xue Caiqing recognized the monk and said in surprise. "I heard from the abbot that you went to Kyoto Fayue Temple to refer to the scriptures, and thought it would take half a month to come back."

"After reading the scriptures, I'm back."

The monk named Yongxin showed a gentle smile.

Although Chen Mu did not want to admit it, the monk did have a magical power of affinity, and it was difficult to become hostile to him.

"Donald Chen."

Just as Chen Mu looked at the other party, the monk took the initiative to say hello.

Recognize me?

It seems that my captain is quite well-known.

Chen Mu responded with a smile: "Hello."

After the monk entered the temple, Chen Mu frowned and asked, "Who is this?"

"His name is Hengxin. He is the favorite disciple of Abbot Wuhui. He has great wisdom and is praised by many other famous temple masters. I heard that the next abbot of Hanwu Temple is him."

Xue Caiqing said, "Two months ago, he went to Kyoto's famous temple to consult scriptures, but he didn't expect to come back today."

So arrogant?

Chen Mu turned his head and stared at Heng Xin's back and murmured: "It's a pity to be a monk when he looks so handsome."

...

When I returned to Ju Chunlou, I found that Yun Zhiyue and Zhang Awei had left.

It is estimated that the two of them returned to the county government after finishing the transcript.

Chen Mu did not stay, said goodbye to Xue Caiqing and took his sister-in-law straight to the county government.

Before he could reach the county government gate, he saw Yun Zhiyue rushing over and throwing him a thick stack of transcripts in his hand:

"I said my surname is Chen, you are really good! I took the woman out for fun and let us be cool laborers!"

"What do you mean? I'll go to the temple to solve the case."

Looking at the woman's angry look on her face, Chen Mu suddenly felt that the other party was angry and had a unique charm.

"Bad your uncle!"

Yun Zhiyue pulled his arm and pulled it aside, her beautiful eyes with deep anxiety, "Do you know that Li Qianhu has gone to Wushan?"

Chen Mu nodded: "I know, he went to catch the snake demon. It's been almost two hours."

Yun Zhiyue opened her red lips slightly, as if she was looking at him with an idiot, and stretched out her white and tender hands on his forehead:
To be continued...
