It is impossible to punish adults

Chapter 567 Settlement
"Then, does this person named Jiang Jin agree?" Master Mu asked Yuan Mu and Mu Liuyun.

Mu Liuyun looked a little embarrassed. Her father was different from her mother. Her mother had watched Jiang Jin beat up her son and grew up with her. She had a very good impression of Jiang Jin. , the old lady just sighed, and finally said that everyone has his own aspirations and can't be forced. She still thinks that Jiang Jin is a good boy.

But my father has never met Jiang Jin, so it's hard to say how to view this matter.

Yuan Mu nodded: "A while ago, I went to Beijing to work in the Ministry of Officials."

"Then Master Wu has the intention of recruiting Yun'er?" Master Mu didn't have any reaction after hearing this, but continued to ask.

Yuan Mu replied: "Indeed, I asked her in front of me, asking her if she felt wronged in the criminal punishment department. If she is willing, she can leave with that Jiang Jin."

After hearing this, Master Mu's eyes became clearer, and he asked Mu Liuyun: "After you rejected him, did he lobby repeatedly?"

"No." Mu Liuyun shook his head, "After being rejected by me, although Mr. Wu looked unhappy, he never had any contact with me after that, and he never tried to lobby me for anything."

Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered a doubtful thing, and hurriedly said to Yuan Mu: "Didn't we find out before that some people who had rejected Mr. Wu's promotion later had accidents.

The previous time, in my house, in the middle of the night, someone put a cold arrow into my room. At that time, we found that the arrow was different from the usual ones. The three arrows all went to the bed. Luckily, my bed was cheaper than usual. A little higher, so you don't get shot in your sleep.

At that time, we also considered whether this was the barbarian's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, trying to take advantage of the chaos to rob the yellow beard in the prison, or they wanted to kidnap the people around you as a threat and replace them with others.

When something happened to Mr. Li Yuan and Mr. Li, I couldn't help but wonder if it was Mr. Wu's handwriting, but anyone who refused to serve him according to his wishes would find a way to get rid of them.

But after thinking about it again, I don't think that's the case. After all, at that time, Mr. Wu just had some favors for Brother Jiang, and he had the idea of ​​​​wanting to recruit him, so he didn't pay much attention to me at all. It is even more impossible to have the opportunity to reject him in advance, so even if it is to eradicate dissidents, it does not make sense that it is my turn! "

"Elimination of dissidents requires vicious methods such as murder and silencing. It doesn't sound like something that the Wu family can do." Master Mu felt a little unreliable.

Mu Liuyun nodded: "Yeah, I think I may have some prejudices against Mr. Wu because of my preconceived impressions. Although he has been planning something, it may not be involved in killing people.

Just like Li Yuan, it's not a recent thing that he declined Mr. Wu's support. It happened a long time ago. It doesn't make sense to wait so long before doing anything to him. I think there must be something else involved.

When banditry was happening in the Jiangzhou area earlier, Xisi County was more serious. It was not until Li Yuan became the county magistrate that he led his troops to fight against the bandits. After that, there were no signs of resurgence. He extinguished it in time, and finally returned to peace.It's just that this peace is for the people of Xisi, and it's not a good thing for those who pretend to be bandits and move around. "

Yuan Mu looked at Mu Liuyun with deep meaning in his eyes: "This is the reason why I want to risk the risk of 'opening the door and stealing'. What we are facing now is not only a force or a team, but also a hidden force hidden in the dark. The various forces in the area have different purposes, some must be mortal enemies, while others may not, at least there is still the possibility of seeking common ground while putting aside differences."

Mu Liuyun suddenly had some understanding in his heart, and he also had a deeper understanding of Yuan Mu's plan.Originally, she had also speculated in her heart, but after hearing Yuan Mu's words now, she became much more certain.

After listening to what Yuan Mu said, Master Mu didn't ask any further questions. He knew that he had just returned from the barbarians, and many situations might not be clear at once. So far, if there is really something that needs his help, it is estimated that this young man will tell him.

In addition to having some doubts about Yuan Mu's identity at the beginning of the meeting, for the rest of the day, watching Yuan Mu's words and deeds, Mr. Mu had already had a pretty good impression of him. Yuan Mu's attitude basically understood everything, so he naturally got a little closer.

"The next most urgent task is to consider how the two elders of the Mu family will settle down." Yuan Mu changed the subject and mentioned another matter, "Before my uncle disappeared, he had always used his identity as a tea merchant as a cover. It is hidden very deeply, and no one has discovered the clues for so many years, but this disappearance lasted 20 years, and now the person is back, but if he returns to Taiping County to continue his life, it may be difficult for him to be a tea merchant. It's believable."

"That's right," Mu Liuyun was also worrying about this matter, "If it's an ordinary person, how could he disappear for twenty years and then come back suddenly, unscathed, and with my mother's temper, no one can justify it The reason is that it is impossible to let dad in without saying a word! But it is not easy to make up a reasonable excuse!"

"It's not just a question of whether the excuse is reasonable or not. Since we plan to 'open the door and steal', it is even more important to take care to avoid being taken advantage of by others and choking our lives." Yuan Mu mentioned another key point, "If everyone is not guaranteed to be safe, the road ahead will be difficult, so Taiping County may not be able to stay there no matter what."

The tone of Yuan Mu's words sounded rather awkward. Mu Liuyun understood why he did this. He obviously considered it from his own standpoint, because after she thought of this level, she also felt Arrived in the same dilemma.

It is one thing to focus on the overall situation, but it is another matter from an emotional point of view.

Taiping County is the hometown where she and her mother have always lived, and it is also the place where her mother struggled to support a family and created a good family business, which means that her mother's roots are here.Now it's not easy to let her leave everything behind!
