Chapter 480: After a Woman Disguised as a Man is Exposed 11
No way, no way, is this military supervisor really so bold? As soon as he entered the city, he confronted the general head-on. If you don't know him, you would think he has a great background in the court.
Others don't know his background, but Chu Yuan, the general's bodyguard, has already found out everything about him.
It was fate that the military supervisor sent by His Majesty from the city was Shao Yunmu, the grandson of the Grand Tutor who was beheaded for corruption and later rehabilitated.
At that time, the corruption case of the Grand Tutor caused a sensation in the city. Anyone who had a connection with Grand Tutor Shao, whether they were relatives or disciples, were brought down. Some were sentenced to beheading in the autumn, while others were sentenced to exile.
Shao Yunmu was the only survivor that year, who escaped because he was kidnapped at a young age.
Speaking of which, he is a capable man. The reason why the case of Taifu's corruption could be retried and sentenced after so many years has probably been inseparable from his planning behind the scenes.
Chu Yuan always felt that such a shrewd person should not act so rashly.
Could it be... that this was the original purpose of his trip?
"Hurry up and catch up. Are you going to be the personal bodyguard of the military inspector?" General Wei's rebuke woke Chu Yuan from his wandering thoughts.
"If the general is willing to give up, Shao also thinks this is a good idea."
Tian Ru Luan, ah Tian Ru Luan, Chu Yuan rolled his eyes slightly under the cover of his sleeves, then quickly trotted to catch up with General Wei who had already left.
Of course, she also missed the deep smile on Shao Yunmu's face.
"Go, check the background of this little guard for me, and send someone to follow him. I want to see what Wei Xuliang is thinking by bringing such a little guard with him."
"Yes." Just as the words fell, a man in black suddenly appeared from somewhere, then took the order and left.
Of course, Chu Yuan could also think of what Shao Yunmu could think of.
So after following General Wei's footsteps, she asked hesitantly, "General, what if the military supervisor sends someone to investigate my background?"
"Do you think I'm stupid? I know you're a weapon, but I'm still eager to hand it over to others. Don't worry, I've already taken care of it."
Since the general said so, Chu Yuan was no longer worried. Anyway, if the truth came to light, she could just slip away immediately.
"The general is wise!" Flattering words came out of Chu Yuan's mouth as if they were free. One moment he praised the general for his wisdom and bravery, the next he shouted that the general had a far-sighted vision. Only then did he coax the general's face away from annoyance.
Alas, it’s really not easy for her!
"Stay away from that military supervisor from now on. It's best not to appear in front of him as much as possible. He is not someone you can easily fool."
Even without General Wei telling her, Chu Yuan knew that he was not someone who could be easily fooled, but she had no choice. If she didn't take the initiative to look for trouble, the trouble would come to her.
The next morning, Chu Yuan found that she was being followed. Perhaps because of the general, the man did not dare to follow her too closely. But once she left the general's sight and went to do something alone, the man began to follow her blatantly.
If a tiger doesn't show its power, it will be like a sick cat, right?
When this man turned in the same direction as her for the fifth time, Chu Yuan couldn't help but stepped forward and pressed his shoulder: "Brother, I just came out to buy some things, there's no need to follow so closely."
In the past few days, the people in Weicheng City have gradually returned to their previous stable lives, and street vendors have reappeared.
It happened that the general sympathized with her hard work every day and allowed her to rest for half a day. Chu Yuan wanted to go out for a walk and buy some pastries and snacks to take back.
Now, not only did I not buy anything, but I was also very angry.
"On the orders of Lord Shao, monitor Guard Chu's every move."
Okay, okay, Chu Yuan was convinced. It was the first time she saw someone sending his men to monitor others so openly. Although she was just a small guard with no human rights, she would complain.
So Chu Yuan stopped strolling along the street and went straight back to the Duwei Mansion.
"General, I was followed by someone as soon as I left the house today. The person said that he was following Lord Shao's orders to monitor my every move. Don't blame me for being nosy. As your personal guard, if he monitors me, he is also monitoring you, General."
General Wei held his forehead helplessly and said: "Let him monitor us, it won't hurt us, and we haven't done anything wrong, so we are not afraid of him monitoring us.
Let's not talk about you, let's take a look at the military affairs piled up on my desk. They were all sent back to me for revision after Lord Shao looked through them and said they were not in compliance with the regulations."
Chu Yuan took a rough look. It included not only the matters handled by General Wei after the capture of Weicheng City, but also the old matters from the time when he was in the Yin Dynasty camp. Some minor omissions were circled.
This Lord Shao is really...looking for trouble.
"Are you going to rest during this half day? If not, come and help me rectify military affairs."
Chu Yuan waved his hands quickly and said, "No, no, General, you should correct it yourself. If Lord Shao finds out, he will say that I am overstepping my authority. I will take my leave now."
It’s really scary. I didn’t expect that not only did I fail to file the lawsuit, but I was almost arrested and forced to do hard labor.
Chu Yuan walked out of the Duwei Mansion quickly. In fact, what the general said was right. If someone was watching her, then let them watch her. Anyway, she had done nothing wrong.
Just as Chu Yuan was about to follow the original route to continue looking for the pastry shop that was highly praised by the people in the city, she was stopped by the man who had followed her just now: "Guardian Chu, my master wants to see you."
Why did the military supervisor look for her? Could it be that he found that General Wei had not made any major mistakes and that dealing with him was fruitless, so he wanted to start with a small guard like her?
It’s a pity that her status is so low. Since the military inspector has invited her, Chu Yuan really has no choice but to give him this honor.
"Lead the way."
Following that man, Chu Yuan was brought to the door of a teahouse in the city. The man who was smiling at her through the second-floor window at this moment could only be Lord Shao.
"My Lord has instructed that Guard Chu should go in alone."
It was quite mysterious. Anyway, Chu Yuan had already made up her mind that she would not betray General Wei. Even if he was a bad person, he should not become a victim of court struggles.
All grudges can be put aside in the face of a cruel war.
After entering the private room, Chu Yuan bowed and saluted obediently: "I greet Master Shao. I wonder why you asked me to come here?"
"Sit down. I asked you to come here today on my personal behalf. It has nothing to do with military affairs. You don't have to be too reserved."
Chu Yuan was confused by what he said, but she didn't plan to stand and answer all the time, so she just sat down and said, "Thank you, sir."
Shao Yunmu nodded slightly, and then, a pair of cold eyes looked straight at her without any reservation: "Chu Yuan, born in Xiaotang Village, 18 years old this year, right."
