Chapter 344 Eyes but no eyes (1)
Huo Shu looked at Mu Qingyi in surprise, and Mu Qingyi smiled lightly: "You don't have to worry, I usually... don't like to be jealous."

Huo Shu was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect the wife of the city lord to speak like this, and she couldn't help laughing when she came back to her senses.Mu Qingyi looked at her relaxed expression with a smile, and sighed in her heart: What a naive and good girl.

"Madam is so beautiful, there's no need to be jealous." Huo Shu's pretty face was slightly red, and she whispered.What she said was the truth, in terms of appearance, she couldn't catch up with Madam even if she flattered her.Even if he is a man, he would still choose a stunning beauty like his wife. I am afraid that there is no woman in this world who is qualified to make his wife jealous.

Mu Qingyi pulled her to sit down and said, "I told you that you don't need to call me madam, you're calling me old. My name is Mu Qingyi. You can call me Miss Mu or by my name as you like."

"There is a difference between honor and inferiority, let's call her Miss Mu." Huo Shu said respectfully.

Mu Qingyi didn't care, and thought for a while and asked, "Why did you follow Tianshu back then?" Huo Shu is a girl, and it is said that she is proficient in both civil and military skills, so she should follow Tianquan logically.

Huo Shu said in a low voice: "My martial arts belong to the bishop of Tianshu..."

"So that's how it is. Even Kaiyang praised your martial arts, so he must be really good to me. Would you like to take over Yaoguangtang?"

"Huh?" Huo Shu was startled, obviously he didn't expect that Mu Qingyi left her to talk about this matter.Although Tianshu had always wanted to abolish Mei Yingxue before, Yaoguangtang was one of the seven halls after all, and it wasn't something that the leader Tianshu could abolish just as he said.At least Tianquan has always opposed it.Tianxuan has the best relationship with Tianquan, but Tianquan disagrees. Although Tianxuan doesn't have a good impression of Mei Yingxue, she can't express her opinion.

Mu Qingyi raised her eyebrows and said, "Why? Don't you dare?"

Huo Shu quickly shook her head and said, "No, it's just Hall Master Yaoguang..."

Mu Qingyi said indifferently: "You should also know what your city lord is thinking. Miss Mei is not suitable for this position. Naturally, she must be replaced by someone else who is capable. Just tell me, are you willing to take over the Yaoguang Hall? It’s enough to be able to do it well.”

Huo Shu's eyes flickered slightly, and a trace of determination flashed across her delicate face.Standing up and kneeling on one knee, he said in a deep voice, "Thank you, Miss Mu, and I will not dare to disappoint the trust of Miss Mu and the city lord."

Mu Qingyi nodded in satisfaction, and while pulling her up, she also stuffed a token into her hand.A pitch-black token was engraved with the pattern of the Big Dipper, and the star at the position of the fluttering light was inlaid with a purple gemstone, symbolizing the identity of the hall master of the fluttering light.On the back of the token, the word Tianque is written in simple seal script.

"From now on, you are the fluctlight of Tianque City."

Huo Shu's eyes turned red, "Yaoguang thank you Miss Mu for your kindness."

This was what she should have had several years ago, but because of Mei Yingxue's intervention, it failed.For a hard-working girl, it is not without the slightest grievance.This token is not only an affirmation of her ability and hard work, but also makes her qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with those she follows.

After chatting with Miss Mu for a while, she immediately became the Hall Master of Yaoguang.Everyone couldn't help but appreciate Mu Qingyi's position in the heart of the city lord to the point where it couldn't be more important.Because Huo Shu's own ability was also recognized by everyone, they didn't show any dissatisfaction with her sudden promotion.At least compared to Mei Yingxue, Huo Shu is definitely more powerful to become the hall master of Yaoguang.They just looked at Rong Jin one after another. Although Huo Shu had already obtained the hall master's token, it was more reassuring that the city master personally spoke about this matter.

Rong Jin glanced at the crowd indifferently, and said displeasedly: "Look at what I am doing? Didn't you already give her the token? Yaoguang, you follow Qingqing first, and follow her orders for specific matters."

Huo Shu cupped her hands respectfully and said, "Your subordinate obeys."

Rong Jin nodded in satisfaction, and Huo Shu understood to a certain extent, after this incident, he would definitely be loyal to Qingqing.He just likes subordinates who are smart and obedient, Qing Qing doesn't know martial arts, it's too late to start learning now, and more importantly, he is reluctant to send Qing Qing this pain, so naturally, the more loyal subordinates with high martial arts skills, the better.

"Yaoguang, congratulations." Kaiyang said with a hearty smile, "Since you have become Hall Master Yaoguang, Yaoguang is going back to the city with the City Master and Miss Mu, right?" The impression is also good.However, although this girl works very hard and is calm, she is not very happy here.Kai Yang also knew that she still wanted to return to Tianque City.

Rong Jin nodded, the people who wanted to follow Qingqing naturally had to go back together.Seeing this, Huo Shu's quiet eyes could not help but brighten up.

"Kaiyang, pick out some people and give them to Huo Shu. Follow them back and take them back together." Rong Jin ordered.

Kai Yang was startled, "Does the city lord want to take people out of the city?" Tianque City itself is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the defense in the city is already sufficient, so the city lord will naturally want people from outside.

Rong Jin nodded and said, "Not bad."

"How many people are in the city?"

Rong Jin thought for a while, then frowned and said, "One thousand elite soldiers is enough."

"Yes, this subordinate will do it now." Kai Yang's eyes lit up, and he turned around quickly and left.This place started from the training of soldiers, and it was the first time that the city lord transferred people outside. It was obvious that the city lord was about to take action.Although they have lived in Tianque City for a long time, they don't know anything about the outside world.But since the city lord took over Tianque City, it has gradually changed.After all, they are all young people, and they always have ambition and fire hidden in their bones.Over the years, they have gradually understood what the city wants to do.

Mu Qingyi frowned slightly and said, "Why do you take the former elite soldiers out?" A thousand elite soldiers is a drop in the bucket on the battlefield, but it is very eye-catching in other places.A thousand elite soldiers are enough to establish a huge sect in the rivers and lakes, and a thousand elite soldiers sneak into the imperial city, no matter how careful they are, it is definitely enough to arouse the vigilance of those in power.

Rong Jin smiled and said: "Of course it is very useful. It can be used to grab Jiuxiao Xianzhi, can be used to bully Wei Wuji, and can be brought back to the capital for emergencies."

After giving him an annoyed look, Mu Qingyi lowered her head and pondered for a moment before nodding, "Understood, I will find a way to settle them."

Rong Jin smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work." Huo Shu stood aside and looked at the conversation between the two in surprise. Although the city master was even younger than the several hall masters of their Beidou hall, it was undeniable It was they who were all afraid of him.Unexpectedly, Miss Mu, who looks so weak, can talk so freely in front of the city lord and even refute the city lord's proposal.Sure enough, the person who can make the city lord look up to him is by no means an ordinary person.

Rong Jin glanced at Huo Shu lightly and said, "From now on, you will be responsible for Qingqing's safety, don't let me down."

Huo Shu said solemnly: "Please don't worry, the city lord, this subordinate will swear to protect Miss Mu's safety."
