Mu Yunxiao walked up to him. The yamen servant who had just arrived for his shift was yawning incessantly. It was a rare leisure time in the morning, and they couldn't chat at their posts. They just stood there bored. There, with half-closed eyes, he was catching up on his sleep.

Hearing the noise, the two government servants who were half-closing their eyes suddenly woke up and immediately woke up. They narrowed their sleepy eyes. Before they could recover, Chad saw the stern faces in front of him. For a moment, Before he could react, he was just stunned for a moment. After a moment, he recognized the person in front of him, looked at him carefully, and called out politely: "Mr. Mu."

Most of the people who are currently on duty in the government in Yuecheng know about the relationship between the Mu brothers and the old man of the city lord's palace, so they are naturally polite to the Mu brothers, not to mention the invisible oppression Mu Yunxiao brings. He was so moved that no government servant he met dared to make a mistake in front of him.

Seeing the yamen officer addressing Mu Yunxiao so politely, the little thief felt even more frightened. He didn't expect that this ordinary family could be the owner of a distinguished family. He was really serious. The ground was kicked onto the iron plate. It was not an injustice.

The little thief stared at the scene in front of him with wide eyes, and he didn't dare to move even more. He just waited for the Lord of the City to sentence him to a sentence and eat a few months in prison to wipe out the bad things of such a trip.

"Is the Lord of the City here?" Mu Yunxiao was already used to the polite and polite addresses from the government officials. He nodded calmly and calmly, looked at the two government officials and asked.

"Come on, come on! Our Lord, the city lord, works hard and loves the people. He has been waiting at the yamen to handle government affairs early in the morning!" One of the yamen servants nodded enthusiastically and praised the city lord from his mouth.

This praise is not just to flatter the Lord of the City, but also the unified thoughts of their government officials. After all, the Lord of the City is indeed diligent and loves the people. He is very busy with government affairs on weekdays, and sometimes even directly So he rested in the yamen and didn't even go back to the city lord's mansion.

"Mr. Mu, do you have something important to report to the city lord? We brothers can inform you directly. The city lord should have finished his breakfast." Another Yamen servant had already seen the man standing behind Mu Yunxiao with considerable discernment. The man in black, with his slender face and stern eyebrows, probably understood immediately and asked politely.

"Yes, I happen to have a small case, and I need to ask the Lord of the City to judge it. Please make it convenient for me to inform you."

Although Mu Yunxiao is now working as an errand in the city lord's palace, and the two brothers have a close relationship with the old man, he is still an exiled prisoner no matter what. Naturally, he is inferior in terms of status and official status, and he must be called appropriately. polite.

The two yamen glanced at each other subconsciously, and one of them immediately and neatly agreed, turned around, quickly opened the thick mahogany door, and walked in quickly.

"Okay! I'll go right away."

After a while, the officer who went in to report the news came out quickly and hurriedly signaled to Mu Yunxiao: "Mr. Mu, our city lord has an order, you can come in directly. If you have anything important, feel free to report it."

"Okay, thank you both." Mu Yunxiao always handled the etiquette very well. After hearing what the yamen servant said, he nodded gently and politely, said thank you, and then pushed the little thief beside him and walked straight Go to the Yamen.

Just as the gatekeeper said, the city lord had just finished his breakfast and rinsed his mouth. He was holding a cup of sweet and delicious tea, sipping it slowly, while his eyes were on the table. He was lingering over the case file, looking particularly serious. There is not much difference from the image of the city lord in the mouth of the people in Yuecheng. This city lord is indeed diligent and hard-working, even far better than the mediocre and lazy one on the dragon throne in the capital.

Mu Yunxiao was on duty at the City Lord's Mansion on weekdays. After so many months, he rarely met the City Lord in the City Lord's Mansion. Presumably it was because he was diligent and spent most of his time at the Yamen, so he did not often appear in the City Lord's Mansion. The number of times they met was naturally lackluster.

After hearing the report from the yamen servant, the city lord didn't think much and immediately asked the yamen servant who had tipped off the news to summon the person in.

He is the lord of Yue City, and it is natural for him to handle chores for the people of Yue City. Dealing with government affairs in the early morning is a common thing.

Noticing the heavy footsteps coming from outside, the city lord raised his head in time and saw Mu Yunxiao waiting quietly in the hall. Then he patted the ink-colored board at his hand heavily and took out his usual Majesty came and asked in a deep voice: "Mu Yunxiao, what is going on? Why did you come to the Yamen so early in the morning?"

According to the laws and regulations of Yue City, Mu Yunxiao knelt down and bowed to the city lord's inquiry without being humble or arrogant, pointed to the person beside him, and explained the reason for the matter clearly and smoothly in a calm and smooth tone.

"Your Majesty the City Lord, the guilty people came here to ask you to judge this person. He stole from my house last night and was caught by me. He was tied up and escorted to the government. Please take a closer look at it, Lord City Lord."

"Stealing?" The city lord put aside the tea cup he was holding, and calmed down a little. His majestic and calm eyes swept between the two people below, and fell on the little thief who was hanging his head and tied up. He yelled suddenly: "Recruit the thieves in this hall immediately!"

The little thief raised his head, sweating profusely from nervousness, but his mouth was still blocked by a piece of cloth, so he couldn't make any sound. He just whined a few times, begging for mercy. intention of.

The little thief was so tightly tied up with ropes that he could hardly move. He couldn't even kneel down and salute. He just showed a look of fear and anxiety and let out a whining cry.

Naturally, the city lord took advantage of the little thief's raising his head to see clearly his current situation. He glanced at the government servant on one side and ordered in a deep voice: "Come here, untie him."

Following the city lord's order, the government officials on both sides hurriedly stepped forward, restrained the little thief from the left to the right, took out the saber from his waist, and split all the ropes tied to the little thief. Then he took off the piece of cloth that was blocking his mouth.

"Yes! Lord City Lord."

The city lord felt in a daze that this little thief seemed familiar and stared at him for a moment. (End of chapter)
