Chapter 1063: Convincing People with Reason

~8 min read 1,465 words

Xiao Jincheng frowned as soon as he heard the movement.

"Why is he here?"

Why didn't anyone tell him in advance.

Immediately, a subordinate leaned in and whispered: "Among the people at the scene, there is a jailer from the Heavenly Prison. Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen is here to fish people out."

"What's the situation?" Xiao Jincheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

"That jailer from the Heavenly Prison came into contact with Imperial Son-in-Law Cheng's corpse and was scared into a faint. After waking up, it is said he was excessively shocked and lost his soul. Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen wants to take the person away, but according to the rules, all personnel at the scene must enter the Imperial Prison for interrogation. Therefore, the people below who handle things rejected Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen's face. He might be angry from embarrassment..."

"Lost his soul?"

"Correct!"

"A dignified jailer of the Heavenly Prison, what kind of dead people hasn't he seen? A mere corpse could make him lose his soul." Who believes this kind of thing.

"Perhaps he recognized Imperial Son-in-Law Cheng's corpse." The subordinate said in a low voice. If it were him, fine and dandy, a corpse suddenly flew onto him, and it was a noble he couldn't afford to offend, he would also be scared into a faint. It's hard to explain! Once he enters the Imperial Prison, what kind of end he will have, one can guess with their toes.

Xiao Jincheng snorted coldly; he naturally couldn't understand how fragile the inner heart of a small person was, and how terrifying the Imperial Prison was to ordinary people.

He slowly walked out of the private room and stood on the corridor on the second floor, looking down.

Chen Guanlou stood on the first floor and waved at the other person. "Lord Xiao, we meet again. Shall we chat?"

Xiao Jincheng was unhappy in his heart, but he also knew that Chen Guanlou was not an easy person to dismiss. If they really made a scene, he feared the scene would be uncontrollable.

"You come up!"

In the blink of an eye, he figured it out.

Since the other party was willing to talk, then talk first.

If they couldn't talk it out, then talk about the next step.

Chen Guanlou let the brothers of the Six Shanmen take good care of Xu Fugui and stepped onto the stairs to the second floor.

"Where shall we talk?"

The Brocade Uniform Guard immediately tidied up a private room that was barely usable.

The two entered the room, and the door closed.

"The Brocade Uniform Guard handles cases impartially. I ask Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen not to obstruct, affecting the case and causing bad influence."

As soon as Xiao Jincheng opened his mouth, it was official jargon. Clearly, he didn't want to talk from the bottom of his heart, but he had to talk.

Chen Guanlou sneered and pointed downstairs. "Xu Fugui, jailer of the Heavenly Prison, my person. If this case has anything to do with him, I don't need your reminder, I will definitely handle it impartially.

But obviously, he is an innocent person implicated, and now he is even more shocked and soul-lost. As his immediate superior, I definitely cannot watch you take him to the Imperial Prison while he is not clear-headed.

You want to interrogate him, you can. Let me take him back to see a doctor first, and after he recovers, I will personally send him to the Brocade Uniform Guard for interrogation, how about that?"

This was his greatest sincerity. He had absolutely no intention of interfering with the Brocade Uniform Guard's handling of the case. Upholding the concept that human life is the most important, it is reasonable to let the patient receive treatment first, and then accept interrogation later.

The order of priority cannot be messed up!

But obviously, the natives of the Great Gan do not value human life. Human life is a fart in front of a case!

The universal value at the end of this year: human life is not worth money! Anyway, they can give birth; if they die, they die, at worst give birth to a few more.

Xiao Jincheng shook his head slowly. "According to the rules, all personnel at the scene, regardless of whether they are sick or not, must enter the Imperial Prison for interrogation. Since ancient times, cases have been handled this way. I hope Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen will not obstruct the Brocade Uniform Guard from handling the case."

Chen Guanlou frowned. "Accommodating a little, also not possible? I have already promised that after his condition stabilizes, I will personally bring him to the Brocade Uniform Guard for interrogation, this also not possible?"

"Not possible! Rules are rules! This case is currently known to possibly involve hidden rebels, and Imperial Son-in-Law Cheng died on the spot; the severity of the matter is far beyond your imagination. You are also in the business of criminal justice; you know very well that this case will definitely be reported to the palace, and the Emperor will personally instruct how to handle the case. Such a big case, I dare not practice favoritism. I hope Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen will forgive me!"

Chen Guanlou laughed angrily.

Since reason didn't work, he could only threaten.

"If I insist on taking the person away, what will you do?"

"Although my martial arts cultivation is not as good as yours, this official will also fight with his life. It is my duty, I hope you will forgive me."

Chen Guanlou sneered repeatedly. "A person who is shocked and soul-lost, may I ask how your Brocade Uniform Guard will interrogate? Why not sell me a favor and let me take the person away. Tomorrow, I will accept your favor and do one thing for you, how about that?"

"Although I am very tempted, it is still that sentence: it is my duty, please forgive me."

Chen Guanlou laughed angrily. "Xiao Jincheng, I don't know why you are so stubborn and don't understand human feelings. If my person only had the last breath left today, would you also insist on taking the person to the Imperial Prison for interrogation, instead of asking a doctor to save his life?"

"He is living well..."

"No, he only has one breath left. If you don't believe it, go see for yourself."

Chen Guanlou smiled but didn't smile.

Xiao Jincheng's face changed instantly, holding the knife handle, but found he couldn't move.

A pair of chopsticks clamped his hand, light, but comparable to ten thousand jin of force, pressing him so he couldn't use a trace of strength, and the whole person was trapped like a trapped beast.

Chen Guanlou smiled at the corner of his mouth. "I have never liked to do it, I try to discuss and handle things as much as possible. You give me face, I return you peace, this business is not a loss."

"You dare to obstruct the Brocade Uniform Guard from handling the case." Xiao Jincheng gritted his teeth, ashamed and angry to death, hatred soaring to the sky.

"Not so! I am discussing. It's just that I used a little physical means. Real obstruction and threats are like this."

Before the words fell, Xiao Jincheng felt his neck tighten, breathing was not smooth. As if he would die in the next second.

Only to see Chen Guanlou lightly stretch out two fingers, pinching his neck. As long as he used a little force, the neck bone would break, and he would die without a doubt.

"You..." Xiao Jincheng swallowed subconsciously. "You cannot kill this official."

"Of course I won't kill you." Chen Guanlou hooked his mouth. "I have a peaceful temperament and no hobby of killing people. So, can we discuss, Lord Xiao?"

"Chen Guanlou, you..."

"Don't say harsh words to me! I can make you die silently at any time, are you sure you want to force me to this point?"

"You are just taking the person away?" Xiao Jincheng doubted.

Chen Guanlou sneered; the Brocade Uniform Guard is suspicious, always suspecting that others have ulterior motives.

"I have no interest in your case, I just want to take the person away. Lord Xiao, in fact, you have a deep misunderstanding of me. With me, everything is negotiable. No matter how troublesome things are, they can be solved by discussing. But you don't, you don't even give a chance.

Usually, either we discuss happily, or I force you to discuss happily. It seems you have figured it out. So, can you accommodate a little, I will take the person away first, and after his condition improves, I will personally bring him to the Brocade Uniform Guard." ===== CHAPTER 1064 =====
