Chapter 1159: This Imperial Consort Woman Is Not a Good Thing

~8 min read 1,518 words

Chen Mengzhi wore the most decent clothes and walked into the Heavenly Prison.

From today on, he was a member of the Heavenly Prison.

Chen Guanlou greeted him for breakfast, he was a bit embarrassed, saying he had already eaten.

"Even if you've eaten, eat a little more, young people consume a lot, and you'll be hungry in a while. It doesn't cost you money, what are you afraid of."

Since it was said to this point, Chen Mengzhi didn't pretend, burying his head in eating.

There were several clerks in the signing room, and Chen Guanlou chose one with older qualifications and a relatively steady personality to bring Chen Mengzhi.

He didn't choose Mu Qingshan.

With Mu Qingshan's elm head, he hadn't even handled his own affairs clearly, don't lead the student astray.

After breakfast, he personally took Chen Mengzhi to the signing room and introduced him to the clerks.

After settling everything, he returned to the office to rest.

Medical Official Mu came to the office holding a small water pot. "Just checked the bodies of the two brothers-in-law, both are great! Xiao Changsheng wants to see you, my lord, are you going to see him?"

"Did he say why he wants to see me?"

"Seems like he wants to ask you how the progress is? I told him to be patient, obviously he can't calm down. On the contrary, Official Gu, calm and composed, not anxious at all, not anxious to get out of prison."

Chen Guanlou hummed. "Next time you see Xiao Changsheng, tell him, impatience can't eat hot tofu."

"My lord, tell him yourself. He doesn't listen to what I say at all. You know the dealings between you best. The old man won't get involved."

Chen Guanlou bared his teeth; he was also waiting for news. Waiting for Eunuch Wang Hai's news.

Wang Hai didn't reply to him for a day, and this matter couldn't be settled for a day.

Pondering for a while, he still decided to see Xiao Changsheng and calm the person down first.

Eunuch Wang Hai's side, don't drop the chain halfway.

"What are you shouting about all day long?" Chen Guanlou came to the prison door, knocked on the bars, very dissatisfied. "Can such things be shouted everywhere? Don't you know the Heavenly Prison is a sieve, there are no secrets here. If the matter of operating for release from prison spreads, in case it is hated by others, destroyed by others, and you can't get out at that time, don't blame me. You also know that you have enemies everywhere."

Xiao Changsheng wiped his face, pulled the prison door, and whispered: "I have a very bad premonition, I must get out as soon as possible."

"What premonition, tell me about it."

"Do you believe me?"

"I have always believed you. If I didn't believe you, could I help you operate for release from prison. Official Xiao, do you have any conscience? Do you think just relying on your little silver, you can dispatch me?"

Xiao Changsheng's corners of the mouth twitched; that little silver? Several thousand taels, ten thousand taels, was actually called that little silver.

Bullying people too much.

He suppressed the fire in his heart. "Do you still want to know my premonition."

"You speak, I'm listening." Chen Guanlou also wanted to hear about metaphysics. Such things should be believed to exist rather than not.

What if?

What if it comes true!

Xiao Changsheng suppressed a trace of fear and anxiety in his heart, trying to say as calmly as possible: "For several days in a row, I have had similar dreams. In the dream, I couldn't find a way out, and was chased and killed! This is definitely not a good omen. I am worried that continuing to be held in the Heavenly Prison, I fear for my life."

"Can't be!" Chen Guanlou didn't believe a word. "Who dares to kill you, who can kill you. You have the Imperial Consort above, and the Emperor. If you die, I dare not say the sky has fallen, at least it is a major event that shocks the imperial court. Don't scare yourself."

"Words can't be said like that. Now I am a prisoner, it is normal for a person or two to die in the prison, and it is this kind of weather. For example, poor diet, unacclimatized, cold and fever, sometimes a cough can take a life! If this official dies by accident, my sister can only helplessly accept it."

Chen Guanlou clicked his tongue twice. "You have even thought of your own way of death, it seems you really had a bad dream. Is that kind of bad premonition strong?"

"At first, I didn't feel much, but these two days it has become stronger and stronger. Brother Chen, you must help me as soon as possible. If I die in the Heavenly Prison, you will also suffer. You and I are brothers, I don't want to implicate you."

Chen Guanlou nodded; of course, he didn't want Xiao Changsheng to have an accident, especially in the Heavenly Prison.

"I know, I will find a way to urge it. I will arrange for someone to take good care of you, if you feel any discomfort, open your mouth and say it, don't be silent. You have dreams, it may also be that you think about it during the day and dream about it at night. Don't think too much, don't be anxious!"

"Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, do you think I look like someone who is easily anxious? Serving by the Emperor's side all day, the most important thing is to have a good mentality, otherwise this job can't be done. Do you really think serving before the Emperor is a very easy job? That is the most difficult job in the world."

Xiao Changsheng had the capital to be proud.

Just by being able to serve the Emperor Jian Shi well, this ability was extraordinary.

"This dream, it must be a warning from heaven! Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, my life is handed over to you. Whether I live or die, it all depends on you!"

"Don't transfer the pressure to me." Chen Guanlou didn't buy that set. "I can only say I will try my best! You think about it yourself, who exactly wants to put you to death. It is also possible that you think too much!"

After leaving the prison, he thought of a way to contact Eunuch Wang Hai.

Whether the matter is accomplished or not, at least give a definite word.

Dragging it on without news, what kind of attitude is that. Taking money to handle things, this is not the attitude.

Wang Hai has no time during the day and cannot be made an appointment.

Only in the middle of the night, when everything is quiet and the whole capital is asleep, does he have time to leave the palace gate. It looks sneaky.

Chen Guanlou sat in the Heavenly Prison office in the middle of the night waiting, and also prepared wine and food.

Two pots of wine, plus a few plates of braised food. Paired with the moonlight, just right!

As soon as Wang Hai entered the door, he picked up the wine pot and poured it into his mouth, looking like he was about to be exhausted.

He wiped the corners of his mouth, picked up two pieces of food and ate, and then said: "I know you are anxious, but things can't be rushed. Let me tell you, this Imperial Consort woman is not a good thing, no wonder she has been favored for so many years. Her heart is very black! If she had a little conscience, she would have cooled down long ago."

"Tell me about it." Chen Guanlou was very curious.

"Don't ask about things in the palace. Knowing too much is not good for you. Anyway, you only need to know that I didn't take the Imperial Consort's route. This Imperial Consort woman doesn't necessarily care about her own brother. I took the Taiji Palace route.

"Brother Wang, you are awesome! You can even get through to the people by the Emperor's side. Awesome!"

"Don't rush to praise me. I declare first, the silver you gave is not enough, I pasted money into it myself, you have to make it up to me."

"Make it up, definitely make it up, double it. As long as the matter can be accomplished, it's better than anything." Chen Guanlou agreed very quickly. Money is a small matter, the key is to be able to accomplish the matter, this is the big matter.

As long as it can be accomplished, his Chen Guanlou's reputation can rise a bit, and it will be easier to earn money in the future. The officialdom class, news is communicated. No one can guarantee that they won't go to the Heavenly Prison in this life.

Even the two, Xie Xiang and Yu Xiang, couldn't avoid taking a trip to the Heavenly Prison, let alone ordinary officials. ===== CHAPTER 1160 =====
