Chapter 1093: Deranged Revenge

~8 min read 1,593 words

The poison Master Qin was poisoned with was not a poison that kills upon contact with blood. With Mu Yiguan Mu there, barring any accidents, Old Qin's life could be saved.

The investigation was handed over to Chen Quan.

After working for half the night, Mu Yiguan Mu was exhausted, his hands and feet numb.

Chen Guanlou hurriedly stepped forward to support him. "Old man, don't be too tired; let the juniors bear the heavy burden. It's time to let the younger generation take on the heavy responsibility."

Mu Yiguan Mu let out a hum. "Hindsight." He didn't say it at the beginning, but only started nagging after he finished working; it wasn't sincere at all.

Chen Guanlou took him out of the A-grade prison, settled him in the office, and had the cafeteria prepare a little late-night snack to replenish Mu Yiguan Mu's strength.

"You've worked hard, old man. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda; I'll record a merit for you. The bonus will be doubled."

Mu Yiguan Mu ate some food and finally regained some energy.

He said: "If it weren't for your insistence on protecting Master Qin, this old man would never have taken out the unique antidote to save his life. To save him, this old man was almost exhausted to death. To be honest, is the Qin family worth your effort?"

Chen Guanlou didn't hide anything and said directly: "Under normal circumstances, I usually wouldn't participate in such grievances and would let them bite each other. However, I have a flaw: I can't stand seeing people bullying children and women. Especially young girls who have no ability to protect themselves. The man surnamed Liu touched my taboo.

His grievances with the Qin family, even if he killed all the Qin family members, no one would ask. But he, he shouldn't have, shouldn't have used despicable methods to calculate against a young girl, and forced the married eldest Qin daughter to death. If he wants to acknowledge himself as a man, he should deal with the Qin family's old and young men through proper channels. He chose not to, but chose to take action against women. Encountering such a person, I'm sorry, I'm determined to protect the Qin family."

He didn't have much sense of justice.

His limited sense of justice had been worn away by years of professional grinding. Only the last bottom line remained: don't take action against children and young girls.

How innocent was the second Miss Qin, to be toyed with, her reputation ruined, and to hang herself.

If someone toyed with his family's girl, for example, someone toyed with Su Rongrong's feelings, he guaranteed he would destroy their entire family.

Grown men should at least have some bottom line as a human being and not implicate the innocent.

Mu Yiguan Mu sighed upon hearing this. "The man surnamed Liu is indeed not decent, his character is despicable, and his methods are vicious. Anyway, the person has been saved, don't forget to split some money with me. At least this old man can be considered to have contributed effort."

"Rest assured, I will definitely split the money with you. I'll give you twenty percent." Chen Guanlou was very generous, starting with twenty percent.

Mu Yiguan Mu waved his hands repeatedly. "Twenty percent is unnecessary; giving this old man ten percent is enough!"

"That won't do! You are a great contributor. Twenty percent is twenty percent."

The two were still haggling over money, one wanting to give and the other not wanting to take, when the prison guard who went to check the situation at the Qin family ran back in a hurry. "Master, the Qin family has been poisoned."

"What's the situation?"

"Someone poisoned the well water at the Qin family, and the whole household has been poisoned. Two children have already died; they are Master Qin's grandson and granddaughter."

Chen Guanlou stood up abruptly. "Didn't I have people keeping an eye on the Qin family? Why did poisoning still occur?"

"Preliminary judgment is that the servants of the Qin family were bought off. Master, what should we do now?"

"Hurry up and report to the authorities, what else. What are you still standing there for?"

Immediately after, he said to Mu Yiguan Mu: "Old Mu, you will have to work hard to make another trip, and try to save the remaining Qin family members."

Mu Yiguan Mu sighed. His old life!

However, this Qin family... they really encountered a star of disaster.

He asked Chen Guanlou: "What do you intend to do?"

Chen Guanlou had a gloomy face. "The man surnamed Liu is so vicious; this matter must not end well. Someone, go and bring Qin Zheng out. Now that such a big thing has happened to the Qin family, he must stand out and preside over the overall situation, and cannot continue to hide in the prison."

He was furious.

He had just taken the Qin family's money and promised to protect the safety of the whole family. As a result, he was slapped in the face by the man surnamed Liu.

The man surnamed Liu was not only vicious in his methods but also fast enough in his actions.

At the same time, there was poisoning in the Heavenly Prison and the Qin family, wanting to destroy the entire Qin family in one breath. He didn't put the court's laws in his eyes at all. He was clearly certain that the yamen couldn't find any evidence, and even if there was evidence, they couldn't find it on him.

Being so arrogant and trampling the law under his feet, such rampant behavior was too rare in the capital.

In the local areas, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, so people in the local areas act more ruthlessly and arrogantly, completely without scruples. Here in the capital, after all, it is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, so doing things still requires some methods and consideration for the court's face.

No one would destroy a family in one breath like Liu Changrong. Not to mention that the Qin family could be considered an official family.

A proper provocation!

A provocation to the law!

Directly bypassing the Jingzhao Prefecture and reporting the case to the Ministry of Justice.

Sun Daoning was sleeping soundly, but was woken up in the middle of the night, with a face full of morning anger.

Upon learning that the Qin family had been poisoned and the whole household was struggling on the line of death, he was startled.

"Who committed the poisoning?"

"Apart from the man surnamed Liu, there couldn't be anyone else."

"Don't talk nonsense without evidence."

"Then hurry up and let the brothers of the Six Sects find evidence; if it's too late, I'm worried that key people will be silenced."

Sun Daoning also realized the seriousness of the matter and took out his warrant. "Take my warrant, go to the Six Sects and call people, and investigate for me. Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, you must find out. Once you find the person who poisoned, put them in the Heavenly Prison, and watch them well for me. If the person dies, I will hold you accountable."

Chen Guanlou slapped himself in the face; he was in trouble!

He suspected that Old Sun was doing it on purpose.

The Six Sects also had small prison cells for temporary detention, but he had to put the person in the Heavenly Prison. This was putting the heavy burden on his shoulders!

The Ministry of Justice moved, and the Jingzhao Prefecture was also alarmed.

Upon learning that the Qin family had been poisoned and the whole household was poisoned and dying, they didn't dare to delay and also sent yamen runners to the scene. Such a vicious thing happened under their jurisdiction, and as the highest yamen in the capital, they couldn't act as if they didn't know; they had to be consistent with the Ministry of Justice in their actions. Otherwise, they would be impeached by the censors for being in a position but not doing their job, and for dereliction of duty.

As soon as they walked into the Qin family, the smell was terrible.

The whole mansion was inducing vomiting, and the filth vomited was all over the ground. The smell was so strong that it could make people vomit.

Chen Guanlou closed his five senses and isolated the smell.

Mu Yiguan Mu, as the main force in inducing vomiting, directed the doctors to work busily.

He walked closer and asked: "What's the situation now? Can the people be saved?"

"The discovery was quite timely, and basically everyone can be saved. However, there are a few who are physically weak, and a few children, so it depends on whether their lives are big."

Qin Zheng was holding the dead child with a numb face, as if his soul had been lost.

Chen Guanlou stepped forward. "Now the Qin family is counting on you; you must cheer up."

No response.

Chen Guanlou stretched out his hand, gestured a few times in front of the other party, and snapped his fingers. Still no reaction.

He was suddenly anxious. "Old Mu, come over and take a look. Qin Zheng looks like this; could it be that his soul is lost?"

Mu Yiguan Mu stepped forward to examine, and directly inserted needles. "No major problems; a few needles will make him better." ===== CHAPTER 1094 =====
