"Su Mu?" Quan Yang was stunned. The name seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember it.

"She is from Cai Si's house. After Cai Si's house was ransacked, she became a maid in my house." Chen Mo said.

"Oh." After Chen Mo said this, Quan Yang remembered that Su Mu was still in front of him and was wanted to leave by Gao Zheng.

"Sir, do you think there is something wrong with her?"

"Well, now she is missing, but according to my guess, she must still be in the capital. You can help me find her. By the way, she is an innate warrior. You have to be more careful and don't alert the snake."

"Innate warrior??" Quan Yang was shocked. When she was in Cai Mansion, Su Mu was just an ordinary girl. How could she become an innate warrior?

Chen Mo nodded again, and then guessed: "I have confirmed the matter of the innate warrior. She should have used some secret method to hide the aura of the innate warrior."

Chen Modu said this. Although Quan Quanyang was confused about how he could see it, he didn't ask offensively and nodded solemnly.

"Anything else?" Seeing that Quan Yang did not leave after agreeing, Chen Mo, who was about to look through the case files, raised his head.

"That is my personal matter."

Quanquan Yang rubbed his hands in embarrassment.

"Oh." Seeing him like this, Chen Mo smiled, thinking that he had something embarrassing to trouble himself to do, so he joked: "Is it because he has fallen in love with the daughter of a prince or minister and is too embarrassed to propose marriage?

Don’t worry, just tell me and I’ll help you.”

After saying that, Chen Mo walked up to Quan Yang and patted his shoulder: "You are now a grown man and you are still alone. It's time to find a marriage."

According to his understanding, Quan Yang was already in his thirties and had not yet gotten married. At this age, he was considered a mature man.

Quan Quan Yang blushed. He originally planned to talk to Chen Mo about his sister, but now looking at Chen Mo's playful smile, he left a sentence: "I hope you won't give up all the time."

Left the study room.

"Begin with chaos and end up giving up?" Chen Mo had a question mark on his face, confused, and murmured: "Who am I going to start with, and end up giving up?"

In today's troubled times, whoever has military power will have a strong backbone. Because of Chen Mo's strength, almost all the military power of the Third Division of the Forbidden Army is in Chen Mo's hands.

Chen Mo almost said exactly what he said in court.

But he didn't hold everything in his hands like Xiao Yunqi did.

Except for the official positions in some important functional departments that were assigned to his own people, Chen Mo left the rest of the positions to Xiao Yunxi to decide and arrange them.

Since you have the idea of ​​​​making Xiao Yunxi the queen, you must first cultivate her influence and authority in the court.

The appointment and removal of official positions is undoubtedly the best way to enhance influence and authority.

At the same time, privately, Chen Mo also handed over the Dragon Guard founded by Xiao Yunqi to Xiao Yunxi.

This move made Zhao Chong's eyes brighter. Chen Mo delegated power to his mother, wasn't it equivalent to delegating power to himself?

In this way, there is hope for restoring the authority of the imperial power.

In addition, Chen Mo promoted Shi Si through Xiao Yunxi, and even gave him the title of Grand Master, one of the three princes, to assist His Majesty, and completely transferred him out of the Military Affairs Department.

The position of commander of the Pro-Army Division was taken over by Huangfu Hao.

In response to this, Shi Si's face darkened on the spot.

Although the Grand Master is one of the three princes, he has no actual authority. Nowadays, when the imperial power is declining, he is even more useless. Compared with the commander of the pro-military department, he is completely in the sky.

But Shi Si did not have an attack on the spot.

Because he was indeed promoted.

The Grand Master is a first-grade official.

However, the commander of the Pro-Army Division is only a third-grade officer.

He was directly promoted by two levels.

And as a military attache, if he wants to hold the position of the first rank, unless he is a relative of the emperor, others are basically exempt from it.

As for the position of Grand Master, Chen Moke gave him enough face.

Wu Lu glanced at Shi Si and said with a smile: "Grand Master, why don't you express your gratitude quickly? Or maybe the Grand Master has some dissatisfaction with the Queen Mother."

Shi Si's face trembled, and he glanced at Hu Sheng, who was the Prime Minister. After seeing him nodding, he respectfully thanked: "Thank you, Queen Mother, thank you for your kindness..."

After the court meeting was over, Shi Si, with his good temper, cursed and left the imperial city.

After transferring Shi Si, Chen Mo sent someone to Youzhou to contact King Yan to discuss cooperation.

During this period, Chen Mo did not delay and began to prepare food and grass. Once King Yan agreed, he would go north.

While preparing food and fodder, Wu Lu found him again to discuss his marriage to Wu Xiner.

Forced to have no choice, Chen Mo made it clear. He could marry Xiner, but he couldn't give her the title of his wife. If the Wu family agreed, then the marriage would be a done deal. If he didn't agree, it would be interrupted. He was not allowed to mention it again in the future.

, so as not to damage the relationship between the two families.

At this point, Chen Mo originally thought that the Wu family would interrupt this idea.

But Wu Lu said he would go back and think about it.

"..."

…

The night is silent and the north wind is howling.

The mist was steaming in the dimly lit hall. In the large bathtub behind the screen, Xiao Yunxi sat in the hot water, holding up a splash of water and pouring it on her neck. The water droplets slid down the crystal collarbone and followed the undulating curve.

All the way down.

Xiao Qing'er stood next to the wooden bucket, giving Xiao Yunxi a bath and taking care of her carefully.

As Xiao Yunxi's bodyguard, Xiao Qing'er originally didn't want to do this kind of work. This kind of work was left to Cai'er.

But after the two of them were honest with each other that night, Xiao Yunxi became accustomed to calling Xiao Qing'er to serve her.

"Qing'er, help me rub my shoulders." Xiao Yunxi squinted her eyes, put her hands on the edge of the tub, and began to enjoy it.

But as she continued to press, Xiao Yunxi frowned and felt something was wrong. Not only did the hand on her shoulder become stronger, but she also moved downwards little by little, as if she wanted to control the situation.

Xiao Yunxi quickly opened her eyes, looked back, and found that Xiao Qing'er who was waiting had turned into Chen Mo.

"You...when did you come?" Xiao Yunxi gritted her teeth, struggled symbolically, and then turned back to enjoy Chen Mo's service.

"I've just been here for a while." Chen Mo grasped the universe with both hands. Hearing Yun Xi's suppressed voice for a moment, he smiled and said, "Did you miss me?"

"I don't want to." Xiao Yunxi said duplicity, and then said: "You are coming more and more frequently now. If outsiders see it, you will make irresponsible remarks."

"No one dares to tell me what I do. And now that I have people inside and outside the palace, no one dares to gossip."

Chen Mo took Xiao Yunxi out of the bathtub, took off the towel on the screen, and wiped the water drops on her body.

The body shape is printed on the screen, hazy but clearly visible, which is indescribable.
