"Head Constable Chen Mu of Wutong Grove District, I have met the Deputy Governor," Chen Mu said politely as he walked out from behind the Hall Office, his demeanor calm. He then extended his hand and produced a document, saying, "Last night's cross-border capture was naturally by the orders of the Chief Officer, with an official document here in my hand."
Setting aside He Mingxuan's death for a moment, the interception of the He Family's goods last night was a scheme that Ning He and he had long agreed upon. Naturally, all aspects were well-prepared, including the subsequent response and the instructions in the documents.
Including the City Guard General's office, there is also a corresponding document there, filed in the Chief Officer's orders.
The Deputy Governor Zhang Heng before him came storming in as soon as they met. Obviously, he was not one of the Xie Family or Xue Family's men, but most likely from the He Family, seemingly here specifically to pick a fight.
"...Hmph."
