Chapter 1173

~8 min read 1,528 words

"It didn't work before, because no one dared to do it before. Starting from me today, break this rule. You just write it! Besides, with my relationship with Lord Xiao, he will definitely give me three parts of face."

Chen Guanlou spoke without shame, pulling the tiger skin to make a big flag.

Whether he can get the money is not important, what is important is that he must do so.

Mu Qingshan didn't care, and immediately complained: "Lord Xiao is such a straight and serious person, how could he tolerate someone crossing the level and crossing the government office to ask him for compensation silver. If he didn't kill him, it was because he was too cultivated!"

"Nonsense. Are you implicitly accusing me of having no cultivation, not being straight and serious enough?" Chen Guanlou asked angrily, patting the table.

"If the lord has nothing else, I will go down first. There are still a few baskets of documents to deal with, the lord should not make trouble and deliberately find fault."

Mu Qingshan was very disgusted, and silently returned a roll of eyes!

Chen Guanlou's mood...

It's against the sky, a small private secretary actually rode on his head and spread wild, teaching him how to do things, reversing the sky and earth.

"Little Mu, this attitude of yours is not good. I asked you to do something, and you pushed back and forth. Even if you lose face in the end, it's my face that is lost, what are you afraid of! Afraid that Xiao Jincheng will kill you! If he dares to kill you, I will avenge you!"

Mu Qingshan's face twitched a few times in succession. The expression was even more indescribable.

It's useless to avenge him after he dies. He can't see it either.

Wait... why does he die!

"If Lord Xiao wants to kill someone, he should look for the lord."

"He doesn't dare!" Chen Guanlou said cockily, "He knows best how to seek good fortune and avoid evil, he doesn't dare to dance with knives and guns with me, afraid of killing himself. So, you just write boldly, send an official document to the Brocade Uniform Guard, and ask the Brocade Uniform Guard for money generously."

"Why? Does our Heavenly Prison lack this little money?" Mu Qingshan really couldn't understand. For a little money, is it really necessary to break the official rules and become the target of public criticism?

"The Heavenly Prison doesn't lack money. But I am disgusted! Since I feel disgusted, I must make the culprit feel disgusted too. Is this reason enough."

Chen Guanlou wasn't just talking, he was really disgusted.

Before the Censorate people came, he didn't feel it.

Once people came, and that attitude was put out, he felt disgusted! What kind of thing is this!

He was so uncomfortable, how could he let the brother unit next door have a good time. Must send an official document to the Brocade Uniform Guard, and let them feel disgusted too! He wanted to see if Xiao Jincheng would give the money or not.

Mu Qingshan was speechless and couldn't refute.

Working beside the master for so many years, not to mention anything else, he still had some understanding of the master's temper and character. Only he makes others disgusted, others absolutely cannot make him disgusted. You can make jokes about him, you can tease him, occasionally provocation is no problem, official problems are solved by official means. But, you just can't make him disgusted!

As long as he is uncomfortable, in a bad mood, and has fire in his heart, the problem is not easy to solve, and he must take some means to do it.

He scratched his head, "Can the lord change a way, must it be like this?"

Chen Guanlou nodded solemnly, "Yes, it must be like this. You hurry up and do it, if you do it well, there will be a heavy reward. If you don't do it well, for the next month, don't even think about going out to be chic."

Mu Qingshan sighed immediately, what a sin!

He had a bitter face and looked at his uncle, hoping the other party would say a few good words for him.

Medical Official Mu looked at the sky and drank tea, just not responding to his gaze.

The lord had already decided on the matter, so he wouldn't interfere. Especially regarding his nephew's affairs, he would rather not interfere if he could. He grasped the sense of proportion just right. This was the real reason why he could freely enter and exit the office to drink tea, not because of his old seniority.

Mu Qingshan was disheartened, knowing he couldn't count on it.

Could only say angrily: "My lord, just mess around! When the time comes, it will cause a dispute between the two government offices, alarm the Ministry of Justice, and the lawsuit will be fought in front of the imperial court, let's see how you clean it up."

"You don't care how I clean it up, anyway, I won't let you take the blame, what are you panicking about!" Chen Guanlou said with a smile.

Mu Qingshan had no choice but to pinch his nose and retire, thinking about how to write this official document of crossing the government office and crossing the level to ask for money, and how to word it so that the other party's fire wouldn't be so big.

Chen Guanlou was very cocky, he laughed, and had already started imagining Xiao Jincheng's expression when he saw the official document. Don't know if the coffin face would crack.

"Is the lord not afraid of Minister Sun's pursuit?" Medical Official Mu teased with a smile.

Chen Guanlou waved his hand, "What am I afraid of! If Xiao Jincheng has the seed, go fight the imperial court lawsuit. I bet he wants face!"

"The Brocade Uniform Guard head wants face, this is too rare. My lord, you are provoking war. This is an insult to the Brocade Uniform Guard."

"Not that serious. Asking for money is called an insult, what a joke. This is called mutual help between brother units. Besides, I am a dignified Ninth Rank warrior, who beat the Jixia Academy to the ground, is it too much to ask them for some money. The Imperial Prison next door was struck by lightning, attracting the Censorate, it's normal to give some compensation."

Chen Guanlou argued strongly.

Anyway, he always had a set of crooked theories to quibble.

Medical Official Mu shook his head and smiled, looking helpless.

Hope Xiao Jincheng knows how to calm things down, just afraid the other party is not willing to do so.

Chen Guanlou drank tea, in a beautiful mood. The mood that was depressed because of the arrival of the censor, immediately turned from cloudy to sunny. He looked beautiful, until the group of censors finished patrolling the prison...

Chen Quan did things thoroughly, and arranged for prison guards to tell him secretly in advance.

"My lord, those censors specifically went to see Lord Gu's prison cell, and compared it with other imprisoned officials' prison cells."

"And then?"

"They are very dissatisfied. A censor muttered that he would impeach the Ministry of Justice, impeach the Gu family, and even Concubine Shu when he went back."

"Deliberately finding fault!" Chen Guanlou complained, "Let Minister Sun worry about this matter. Anything else?"

"They also went to the deepest part of the prison. The lord also knows that some old prisoners have been locked up inside... Prison Clerk Chen is worried about an accident, so he let the small one run out to tell the lord."

Chen Guanlou frowned and pondered.

Medical Official Mu suggested: "Does the lord want to go down and see. That group of prisoners was locked in during the late Emperor's period. It seems that their wings have been broken and they can't turn over any waves, just afraid that this group of censors will deliberately find things to do. It's not worrying to find trouble with the Ministry of Justice, just afraid that they will take the opportunity to make a fuss and bring up things from the early years."

The prison guard didn't understand why bringing up things from the early years was more serious than finding trouble with the Ministry of Justice.

Chen Guanlou knew clearly that on the surface it was bringing up things from the early years, but in reality, it was pointing at Emperor Jian Shi. The continuous drought, the increasing number of refugees outside the city, the floating dust surging in the court, the changeable hearts of people, as long as one is good at making a fuss, this is a big article about the emperor having no virtue, not establishing a crown prince, and heaven sending down punishment.

He tapped the table lightly, "The censor wants to make trouble, we can't stop it. Every prison has old prisoners who have been locked up for ten or twenty years, or even twenty or thirty years. The Dali Temple probably has more. Tell Chen Quan, just watch, no need to stop!"
