Chapter 1097: Survival Through Desperation

~8 min read 1,520 words

It didn't take two days.

The next day, the Brocade Uniform Guards arrested Liu Changrong, raided the Liu residence, and found many fatal things in the study.

Liu Changrong's eyes were about to split. "I was framed. Someone framed me! I was wronged... you can't arrest me... I want to see the Emperor, I want to enter the palace to see His Majesty..."

His clamoring not only had no effect but he was also repaired by the Brocade Uniform Guards.

The Brocade Uniform Guards' actions were not comparable to the scum of the Six Sects. Once the man surnamed Liu entered the imperial prison, there were more cruel methods waiting for him. In the final analysis, he was just too arrogant, actually daring to expose his inner thoughts in the Yu residence.

He thought that being a little sincere was better than just arguing. Where did he expect that under Yu Zhaoan's coercion, being sincere and sincere turned into reality, exposing his violent side.

Yu Zhaoan also fought his way out of a 'sea of corpses and blood.' Back then, he was arrested and thrown into the imperial prison, both legs were broken, but fortunately, he met Medical Officer Mu and saved his legs. He tossed and turned under the eyes of the former Emperor for several years before having today.

A small Liu Changrong was destroyed with a lift of his hand.

Although the Cui family felt heartache that a good son-in-law was wasted, thinking that there were better choices, they only felt heartache for a moment. As for the thoughts of Liu Changrong's wife and children, no one cared.

Chen Guanlou carried a pot of wine and went down to the A-grade prison.

He knocked on the cell door. "Old Qin, I've come to see you."

Master Qin sat up from the bed board and steadied his mind. "And wine!"

A person who loves wine, seeing wine is like seeing a beauty, and his mood instantly became very beautiful.

"Liu Changrong was thrown into the imperial prison; he won't die without losing a layer of skin. Someone greeted him, and barring any accidents, he is finished."

As soon as Chen Guanlou came, he told the other party the good news.

"Old Qin, are you happy? From today on, you can sleep without worries."

"Happy! This old man is happy! Hahaha..." Master Qin laughed loudly, and as he laughed, he cried again.

Chen Guanlou looked at the other party with an indifferent expression, listening to the old man crying and howling, it was harsh.

He endured it!

Only when the other party had vented enough did he speak again. "Wish fulfilled, can you tell me the truth?"

"What does Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen want to know?" Master Qin poured a cup of wine into his mouth, and his heart felt much more comfortable. The huge stone that had been pressing on his heart for many days finally landed.

Chen Guanlou put the wine pot on the ground. "Tell me the truth about your family being poisoned, how about that?"

Master Qin raised his eyebrows slightly. "Everything is based on the investigation of the Ministry of Justice."

Chen Guanlou let out a scoff. "Old Qin, why do you have to deceive me now. I can guarantee that today's conversation will come out of your mouth and enter my ears, and there will definitely not be a third person who knows. I think you must have inquired about me long ago; I never do the work of reporting."

Master Qin was silent, drinking his wine in silence.

Chen Guanlou watched, and continued to say: "Liu Changrong is not a fool; these years he has walked all the way, and he cannot be separated from the support of noble people. Noble people are not blind; it is impossible to support a piece of mud that cannot be supported on the wall. He was supported by noble people, and he must have had his strengths.

At least his talent for reading is stronger than your two sons, and his ability to calculate against people and his thick skin are far stronger than your family.

Walking ninety steps out of a hundred, he didn't need to poison your family and bring trouble upon himself. He has a hundred ways to kill your whole family and still remove himself perfectly. Poisoning is the stupidest and stupidest way. Unless he was driven to a dead end, he wouldn't have taken this step."

Master Qin's expression was gloomy, mocking: "Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen said so much, just wanting to say that Liu Changrong couldn't have poisoned. But it is a fact that he calculated against my Qin family, it is a fact that he wanted to kill my whole Qin family, and it is a fact that he forced my two daughters to death. Even the Ministry of Justice recognized it; could it be that Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen wants to overturn the case for the man surnamed Liu?"

"I don't overturn cases for anyone!" Chen Guanlou said with a straight face, solemnly. "I am a Heavenly Jiang Jiang Yucheng, only responsible for guarding prisoners, and occasionally taking money to run errands for people. I just want to satisfy my curiosity and see if my deduction is correct. There is absolutely no other idea!"

Master Qin heard this, wiped his face, and his expression was slightly dazed.

"Just to satisfy curiosity, Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen spoke for the man surnamed Liu."

"I only speak the truth, not for anyone." Chen Guanlou looked at the other party coldly. "I thought about it, the poisoning case is more like a frame-up. Am I right?"

Master Qin smiled ambiguously, neither admitting nor refuting.

"Master Qin has such a big hand, such a hard heart, betting with the lives of his whole family..."

"What do you want me to do? What do you want me to do?" Master Qin suddenly clamored, kicked over the wine cup, and grabbed the cell door bars. "May I ask Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, if you were in this old man's position, what could you do?

In the eyes of ordinary people, the Qin family is high and unreachable, but in the vast capital, in the eyes of the powerful, it is nothing. Can't afford to provoke the noble families above, can't afford to provoke colleagues below. Being cautious and careful all his life, in exchange for the Qin family barely taking root in the capital, seeking convenience for descendants.

Being a good person all his life, but in the end, he couldn't protect himself, couldn't protect his whole family. What do you want this old man to do? For a small person like this old man, only by survival through desperation can he seek a glimmer of life, and can he survive in a desperate situation."

"Then have you thought about what to do if you lose the bet?" Chen Guanlou asked.

"If I lose the bet, hehe, at most I will go down to accompany them. Anyway, it's all death; instead of being tortured and humiliated and suffering pain, it's better to die silently overnight, die happily!"

Master Qin gritted his teeth, full of resentment.

If he hadn't been forced to a dead end, who would be willing to take the initiative to walk on a dead end and be an executioner.

If he hadn't been forced to a dead end, how could he have given up the beliefs he had held for most of his life, let go of all the rules and constraints, and become the person he despised the most before. He finally lived into the appearance he hated the most.

He smashed his head against the wall, as if doing so could alleviate his inner sin and pain.

Chen Guanlou didn't stop him, sighed, and lamented.

"You poisoned your own family, which can be considered as going all out. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and only five people died."

Master Qin stopped hitting his head and laughed coldly. "Are you trying to scold this old man? This old man tells you, this old man does not regret it. From the day this old man made up his mind, this old man has not regretted it. Only five people died, but it can be exchanged for the whole family to live, and the great hatred can be reported; everything is worth it. My grandson and granddaughter died worthily; their deaths have value."

As soon as the words fell, he cried softly again, waving his fists to beat the wall.

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly. "You were poisoned, was it also self-directed? Where did the poison come from? How did you manage to poison your family?"

Master Qin heard this and couldn't help laughing.

He looked at the other party, showing a mocking expression. "This old man has been a good person all his life, but he can meet a white-eyed wolf like Liu Changrong, and naturally he can also meet a few good sons of the rivers and lakes who know how to repay kindness." ===== CHAPTER 1098 =====
