Chapter 1276: Death and Rebirth

~8 min read 1,511 words

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the government office opened!

Chen Guanlou also ended his holiday and returned to the Heavenly Prison to work.

At the beginning of the year, the Ministry of Justice worked tirelessly to try the helper case from last year, and unsurprisingly, they were all beheaded! From top to bottom, from the county magistrate to the helpers, without exception, no one could stay out of it.

Niu Er was sentenced to death by slicing, three hundred cuts. Daring to kill government personnel on the street, even if they were just helpers, the influence was extremely bad. It was necessary to kill the chicken to warn the monkey, letting the common people know that going against the government office would end up like this.

Chen Guanlou went down to the C-grade prison.

The cell was damp and wet.

He first went to visit Dawang, who was now renamed Jin Youde.

"In the middle of the month, exile, Northwest! From now on, you are Jin Youde; don't remember the wrong name. The Northwest side has already been taken care of; after arriving at the place, someone will settle you. In the future, serve in the army well and make more contributions."

Dawang's eyes were full of tears, and he nodded heavily, "Thank you, Brother Lou. I heard that they are all going to be beheaded." He was scared and lucky, and for a while, he couldn't control his emotions, crying very ugly!

"Beheading is inevitable. This kind of case, and it's at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there's no human sentiment to talk about. If it happened in a local area, there would be a chance to drill loopholes. Learn from this lesson, and be cautious in doing things in the future; don't think that just because someone supports you, you can be lawless. If someone really wants to catch your handle and put you to death, they can always do it if they have the heart."

Chen Guanlou rarely gave patient instructions.

Dawang listened while crying, "My family..."

"Before you leave, I will arrange for them to see you. There is one more thing, I forgot to tell you, your woman has already divorced you and returned to her mother's home."

Dawang was stunned for a moment, seemingly unable to believe it. Immediately after, he sighed, and said very helplessly: "It's good that she left, returning to her mother's home is quite good. At least she doesn't have to be implicated by me. The helper case doesn't implicate family members, right?"

"Doesn't implicate!"

"That's good, that's good."

After all, the person who died in the helper case was 'Qian Dawang'! If the Qian family were implicated, he wouldn't know what to do.

Chen Guanlou waited for his emotions to calm down, and continued: "I will arrange for prison guards to give you better food recently. Eat and drink well, and take care of your body. It's thousands of miles to the Northwest, and the road is full of wind, frost, swords, and swords; you have to suffer a lot. Take care of your body so you can live to walk to the Northwest."

"I listen to you. That..."

"Is there anything else?" Chen Guanlou asked.

Dawang was a bit embarrassed, a bit hard to speak, "The person who replaced me, can I see him?"

Chen Guanlou frowned, dissatisfied, "Don't see him!"

"Oh, it's better not to see him!" Dawang was relieved, clearly letting out a long breath.

Afterward, Chen Guanlou went to visit Shi Youcai.

Mu Yiguan Mu's technique was brilliant; in such a short time, Shi Youcai had already changed his appearance. Except for the tongue without a tip, the whole person could no longer find the original appearance of 'Shi Youcai'.

"Qian Dawang!" Chen Guanlou deliberately called out the replacement name.

"Is the official calling me?"

Shi Youcai's reaction made him very satisfied.

"Not bad, not bad! Stand up and walk around, let me see your legs."

Shi Youcai got up and walked slowly in the cell. Breaking and resetting the bones, he endured unimaginable pain, and finally had a harvest. Although he still limped when walking and his actions were inconvenient, he was finally able to act. Compared to the beginning, when he couldn't even walk, he was much stronger.

Looking at his face again, tsk, incredible.

Whoever saw him wouldn't be able to tell that this person was the fake Qian Dawang. Not to mention ten out of ten similar, at least eight or nine points similar. Even the shape of the ears, Mu Yiguan Mu was very careful, and had groomed them. Ensuring the details were perfect, whoever came to identify him wouldn't be able to distinguish true from false.

It was just hard for Shi Youcai; the skin under the medicinal water wasn't comfortable, and it must have been red and swollen. But he didn't care! Being able to die upright, and being able to see his children before he died, he was satisfied!

"Official, my two children..."

"Be prepared, I'll arrange for you to meet tonight."

When Shi Youcai heard this, he was overjoyed, tears streaming down his face with excitement.

He desperately wiped his tears, but the more he wiped, the more there were. The Shi family tortured him for five full years, and he hadn't cried once. But at this moment, he was crying bitterly!

Chen Guanlou didn't pay attention to the other party's emotions, but said directly: "After seeing you, I will arrange for them to live and study in the Yuquan Palace. There are also teachers who teach books there; if they aren't good at studying, they can change to learning Daoism. In any case, there is a way out. As for their surnames and names, if you insist, continue to use the previous ones."

"Thank you, thank you!" Shi Youcai knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Surnames and names can be changed, follow their mother's surname. Nothing is more important than their own safety. The Yuquan Palace is very good, the official's arrangement is very thoughtful. Thank you, thank you..."

The safety of children couldn't count on outsiders. Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen could help for a while, but couldn't help for a lifetime. Changing the children's names and surnames was a matter of course, and everything was based on safety.

Arranging the children in the Yuquan Palace was even beyond his expectations, which surprised him very much. Before, he was still worried about what the children would do in the future. They were so young, how could they survive. He didn't expect Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen to have thought of everything, and arranged everything.

Shi Youcai cried and cried, crying until his eyes were red and swollen, and his cheeks were swollen.

Finally, the middle of the night arrived.

The cell door opened wide, and he was invited out of the cell, slowly walking out of the prison. He was invited into the office again.

Just as he entered the room, because of the light, he hadn't adapted yet. He heard two voices calling him in unison: "Father!"

A pair of children threw themselves into his arms, and the father and three children hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Five years, five full years!

The original little ones had grown taller, but were extremely thin and weak.

Chen Guanlou walked out the door, leaving the space for the father and three children. The two children, as early as he reached an agreement with Shi Youcai, had been rescued. He didn't redeem them through the bright path, worrying about attracting unnecessary attention. However, the children's deeds of sale were all taken back, and someone was entrusted to change them back to good status.

After the children were rescued, they were settled in a remote mountain villa and taken care of by a mute servant. They had been raised for such a long time, and they had finally gained some meat, washed away some of the habits they had picked up in the brothel, and knew a few characters, finally being able to come out and see people.

These two children, the road ahead was still very long.

The crying in the room gradually became smaller.

Not long after, the door opened from the inside.

Shi Youcai, with a pair of red and swollen eyes, said, "Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, can I invite you in."

Chen Guanlou walked into the office, "What is it?"

The Shi family of three suddenly knelt down together, "Kowtow to Official Chen. Official Chen is the savior of our father and three children, our reborn parents, and we must remember Official Chen's kindness for a lifetime. When we grow up, if we have the ability, we must repay it. If we are mediocre, don't cause trouble for Official Chen, remember that, okay?"

The two children kowtowed heavily, making a thumping sound.

Chen Guanlou bared his teeth; the floor tiles were about to be broken. The head wasn't made of diamond, so it wasn't necessary! ===== CHAPTER 1277 =====
