Chapter 1165: A Lover

~7 min read 1,315 words

Doing metaphysics, the bigger the scene, the better!

Mobilizing the capital camp, deterring everyone in the imperial court, is this scene big enough!

The scene has been set up, it is impossible to use small characters to fill the number. It must be a big character with a noble status, who is enough to bear the word 'hindering', who can take the blame for the Emperor, no, it is sharing worries.

Thinking along this train of thought, all the questions are instantly clear.

Sun Daojing is excited!

Excited to tears.

"According to what you said, the old man doesn't have to die."

"You are not enough weight." Chen Guanlou spoke the truth, the truth is very hurtful, hurting self-esteem. However, at this moment, it made Sun Daojing laugh.

"You are right, the old man is not enough weight. The old man is just a Minister of Justice, can't bear the heavy responsibility of the family and country!"

It is self-mockery, and it is also celebration.

Just finished being happy, immediately followed by pain.

"What if everything you said is wrong, completely guessed the wrong direction, what to do?"

He became fearful again.

This time, his premonition was really bad, and he was awakened by nightmares every night. His Majesty mobilizing the capital camp gave him a very bad feeling. Remember, last time the capital camp was mobilized, it was when the late Emperor passed away.

That scene...

Makes people linger in fear.

Chen Guanlou didn't care. "Even if I guessed wrong, you don't have to be so fearful. You act so steadily, good things don't come to you, the worst bad things definitely won't come to you. Only ordinary bad things come to you."

Sun Daojing frowned, what kind of words are these, burying him?

"Old Sun, you ask yourself, what is your impression in the Emperor's mind? Is it steady and old, a minister who can handle things and keep his mouth shut. You are like this, usually used to share worries. But when it comes to life and death, the Emperor won't take you out to cut your head. Because a minister who is old and can handle things like you is already rare, one less for every one killed. If you are killed, who to find to share worries next time?"

Sun Daojing looked dazed, is it like this?

Could Chen Guanlou be talking nonsense, comforting him!

He was half-believing, half-doubting, his heart uneasy.

Because the feeling this case gave him was really too bad, the premonition was very bad. Can't blame him for thinking too much.

Chen Guanlou said again: "If you really can't make up your mind, I will give you a way, you just focus on investigating the case, don't ignore anything else. What disputes, what open and secret plots, all stay out of it, just investigate the case. Doing this, maybe you can't please, but definitely won't perish!"

Sun Daojing has been pondering.

Chen Guanlou said another sentence, making him make up his mind.

"Investigating the case is exactly what you are good at. When a person is at a loss, do what you are good at. Even if it is not the best choice, it is definitely not the worst choice."

Sun Daojing nodded secretly, it makes sense.

Since the things in the imperial court can't be figured out, don't figure it out, and don't get involved, just do your own duty. When His Majesty promoted him, it was because he was dutiful and did things steadily.

If he forgets the foundation of standing, there will definitely be no good end. The officialdom is treacherous, he is not good at these tricks, forcing himself to get involved, will only become a stepping stone for others.

Only stay away, only respect and stay away!

He sighed long, his eyebrows unfolded, sweeping away the previous worries.

"The old man knew you had a way, in a few words, made the old man suddenly enlightened. Come, come, the old man will toast you."

Chen Guanlou was very disgusted. "Old Sun, it's not that I'm talking about you, you don't even know how to find a good place to treat guests. The girls on this painting boat look older than me. Are they taking advantage of me, or am I taking advantage of them."

"Oh, women, they are all about the same, all about the same!" Old Sun didn't have the slightest embarrassment, instead disgusted Chen Guanlou for being troublesome, picking and choosing, his mouth is very picky.

Chen Guanlou barely drank a few glasses, appreciated the dance of the middle-aged woman. Taking advantage of the early hour, he prepared to change places to be unrestrained. Urged the boatman to dock.

He stood on the boat board, the painting boat hadn't docked yet, he couldn't wait to go ashore. Looking back to urge Old Sun, not good, the madam is rushing into Old Sun's arms.

If it was just rushing into his arms, he wouldn't be shocked.

"Oh, women, they're all about the same, all about the same!" Old Sun didn't feel the slightest bit awkward; instead, he found Chen Guanlou to be meddlesome, picky, and very demanding.

Old Sun gently held the person in his arms, comforting softly.

That appearance, clearly a heartless 'lover'! This moment is affectionate, the emotion is also sincere, every word said is true.

Wait until leaving the painting boat, hum, who remembers what was just said, what was promised. Therefore, Old Sun is only a 'lover' at this moment!

The madam obviously also knows this point, otherwise she wouldn't be making a living on the painting boat at such an old age, running a business herself. The key is to coax Old Sun well. Dignified Minister of Justice, what a big backer!

With this backer, the madam's painting boat business, who dares to check? Who can check? Who dares to make things difficult? Encountering unreasonable customers, the madam can borrow the name of the Minister of Justice, turn hostility into friendship, reduce losses, and avoid trouble.

Old Sun gained emotional value!

The madam gained a solid backer!

Win-win!

Chen Guanlou clicked his tongue twice, couldn't bear to look.

He stood silently on the shore waiting, waiting and waiting, until the madam's tears dried, breaking into tears and smiling, finally waited for Old Sun to go ashore.

He teased and asked the other party, "Old lover?"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Sun Daojing was solemn, his expression serious, that look was like going to court to judge a case.

Chen Guanlou clicked, very disgusted. Old indecent, still covering up! Solemnly talking nonsense, do you want face?

In this day and age, dare not compare financial resources, everyone changed tracks, comparing who has a thicker face.

The morals of the world are declining!

"Did you earn or lose today?" He asked curiously again.

Just want to know, is it the madam treating guests, or Old Sun treating guests.

Sun Daojing glared at him. "What money or not! Vulgar!"

Chen Guanlou silently rolled

"Did we make money or lose money today?" he asked curiously again.

He just wanted to know whether it was the madam of the brothel treating or Old Sun treating.

Sun Daoning glared at him, "What money, what money! How vulgar!"

Chen Guanlou rolled his eyes silently: You're so elegant, you're so noble! You were quite affectionate when you were sneaking onto the pleasure boat, holding a middle-aged woman, and I didn't see a shred of scholar-like temperament. Instead, you displayed your sleazy side to the fullest! Aren't you being hypocritical? Is it interesting?

"Old Sun, I've discovered that you are really not a decent person!"

"What did you say? If you have the guts, say what you just said again! Chen Guanlou, this official reminds you that even when you are off duty, you are still a subordinate. You had better think clearly before you speak!"
