In the Spring House, Li Mu was savoring the fish soup that Cai Wenji had made.
Although Cai Wenji was the daughter of the great scholar Cai Yong, she was not a delicate lady who did not touch the water of spring.
Ever since she was young, she had followed Cai Yong to avoid disaster in Jianghai. After twelve years of hardship, Cai Wenji not only had a scholarly air, but also a simple and honest life.
The cooking skills of this fish soup were enough to advance to the next level.
"Sir, is this fish soup still tasty?”
Cai Wenji rested her elbows on the wooden table and cupped her face with her hands. She tilted her neck slightly and looked at Li Mu, her voice soft and gentle.
"Yes, the top-grade fish soup is as white as milk. It's fat but not greasy. When it drops on the table, it will naturally condense into pearls. With a blow from your mouth, it can roll from one side of the table to the other.”
"The soup is as good as wine. Drink it in one gulp, and the aftertaste is endless.”
"Wonderful!"
Li Mu's emotional praise immediately made Cai Wenji's heart tremble. She was a little shy."It's not as good as what you say. I will continue to work hard.”
In the midst of their passionate love, Han Hao's rough voice was like a bucket of cold water, instantly destroying the atmosphere between Li Mu and Cai Wenji.
"Xiahou Dun, that bastard!"
"Are you complaining that not enough people know my whereabouts?”
The veins on Li Mu's arm trembled.
When Han Hao shouted "Puyang Order", Li Mu knew that something bad had happened.
The Clear Spring Villa was not hidden in the mountains and forests. On the contrary, it was located in the downtown area of the south of the city.
As the saying goes, the small is hidden in the forest, and the big is hidden in the city.
Li Mu spent a year to change the identity of the Puyang Order into that of Li from the Clear Spring Residence, a scholar of the Clear Spring Residence who was good at divination and divination.
In her impression, Han Hao wasn't a reckless person.
But now, he was so reckless and shouted " Puyang Order ". If Xiahou Dun had not instigated him, Li Mu would never have believed it.
"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have offered advice."
"I'll turn your two-eyed Xiahou Dun into a one-eyed Xiahou Dun.”
Li Mu secretly looked down on Xiahou Dun for a while, then asked Cai Wenji to leave temporarily.
Not long after.
Han Hao and the county magistrate came together.
Glancing at the county magistrate beside Han Hao, Li Mu's warm eyes instantly turned as sharp as a sword.
"County magistrate, why aren't you dealing with official business at the county office? Why are you here at my Clear Spring Villa?”
The county magistrate felt as if a knife was on his back, and he was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Although Li Mu, the magistrate of Puyang, didn't care about anything, the county magistrate didn't dare to be disrespectful in front of him.
The young man before him was the ruthless person who had wiped out the entire Bai Rao Tribe with a single move!
The county magistrate did not dare to be disrespectful!
"Magistrate, I have something to report.”The county magistrate steeled his heart. If he couldn't make a decision, he should be honest first!
"Oh ~"
Li Mu narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the county magistrate meaningfully. He turned the Shu brocade folding fan in his right hand a few times and then unfolded it, revealing the fan with the words " Crane Cry Nine Gao " embroidered on it.
"Think clearly before you speak!"
The county deputy knelt on the ground with a thud."Magistrate, this lowly official was blinded by greed and mistakenly believed Chen Gong. That was why I agreed to be Chen Gong's spy. Seeing the county magistrate today, it was as if the clouds were lifted and the fog was seen. Only then did he know that he had made a big mistake! Please allow me to atone for my sins!”
The county deputy's sudden confession caught Han Hao off guard.
Han Hao, who reacted, was instantly enraged. He grabbed the county deputy's collar and said,""An insider? You're Chen Gong's spy? You're actually Chen Gong's spy!"
Han Hao was also drenched in cold sweat.
Li Mu lived in seclusion in the Clear Spring Villa, but in the end, he brought Chen Gong's spy to Li Mu.
What was the difference between this and Han Hao directly selling out Li Mu's whereabouts?
"General Han, I used to be a spy, but I'm not anymore.”The county magistrate struggled, his desire to live was extremely strong.
However, Han Hao only wanted to kill the county magistrate to vent his hatred.
The county magistrate was terrified and shouted anxiously,""Magistrate, Chen Gong has more than one spy. If you kill me, the city gates will still open tonight!”
"General Han, put down the county magistrate." Li Mu waved his hand, signaling Han Hao.
Han Hao snorted coldly and threw the county magistrate in front of Li Mu. Then, he placed the sword at his waist on the county magistrate's neck.
Li Mu gently fanned himself, elegant and calm, as if he had already expected the county magistrate to be Chen Gong's spy."Magistrate, aren't you afraid that Chen Gong and your colleagues who rebelled with you will scold you for being ungrateful?”
With a sharp blade hanging on his neck, the county magistrate did not dare to hesitate at all. His desire to live was extremely strong."If I had known that the county magistrate was in Puyang, I wouldn't have dared to rebel even if I had ten guts! If I hadn't followed General Han to Clear Spring Villa today, I wouldn't have known that the county magistrate was Scholar Clear Spring.”
"This lowly official and those officials who responded to Chen Gong, their seemingly shrewd actions are as laughable as children in the eyes of the county magistrate.”
"This lowly official is a commoner who only wants to live in this chaotic world. This lowly official really does not dare to get involved in the battle between big shots.”
"Magistrate, please give me a chance to atone for my sins on account of my ability to govern.”
Although the county magistrate was speaking in a hurry, he had guessed the crux of the matter.
Li Mu's existence faded and he became Recluse Clear Spring who lived in seclusion in Clear Spring Villa. His control over the changes in Pu Yang's situation and the details did not weaken at all.
On the contrary, Li Mu had a deeper understanding of Puyang's officials than anyone else.
Even if the county magistrate didn't confess, Li Mu could guess which officials in Puyang City would respond to Chen Gong's instigation.
"General Han, do you want to ask about strategy?" Li Mu chuckled and looked at Han Hao.
The second commandment of the three commandments of a counselor is to not ask questions and not plan.
