Chapter 1335

~8 min read 1,524 words

Sun Daoning's face was gloomy.

He already understood the whole process of the matter, and never expected that such a rough replacing the peach with the plum would come from a Ministry of Justice official.

It was simply a disgrace to the two words "Ministry of Justice."

Not even as good as a layman.

"Go and catch the prisoner Ming Sheng back."

Chen Guanlou was stunned, came back to his senses, and pointed at himself: "You want me to catch someone?"

Sun Daoning gave a hum.

"Old Sun, this is not appropriate! I am the Heavenly Jiang Jiang Yucheng, catching people is the duty of the Six Shanmen. Don't get it wrong."

"How can the Six Shanmen have your speed."

"I won't go!" Chen Guanlou firmly refused to take the trouble on himself. Helping in private is one thing, but walking on the bright path to clean up for the Six Shanmen, he firmly wouldn't do it.

This kind of thing has a first time and a second time, completely violating the principle of not overstepping boundaries. Even if Sun Daoning is the Minister of Justice, he cannot make him violate the principle.

"Really not going?"

"Not going!"

"Give money!"

"Even if you give money, I won't go. This is not a question of money, this is a question of principle, a question of authority. You ask the Six Shanmen, are they willing for me to help? Definitely not happy. Once I intervene in the Six Shanmen's business, they will definitely suspect that the official wants to divide their power. This is a big taboo in officialdom! Unless the official originally intended to suppress the Six Shanmen!"

Obviously, Sun Daoning didn't have the idea of suppressing the Six Shanmen. Many dirty and tiring jobs needed the Six Shanmen. You can't just let the horse run without giving the horse grass. If you want the Six Shanmen to do dirty and tiring jobs, you can't deprive the other party of their authority.

"Ming Sheng is not a cunning and smart person; on the contrary, this person is alcoholic and impulsive, and his brain is straight. This kind of person is easy to catch. If the Six Shanmen are dispatched, I guess it won't take a few days to catch the person back."

Sun Daoning frowned slightly. "Do you think Ming Sheng hasn't gone far?"

"From the Ming family's neighbors, I learned that Ming Sheng relies on a bit of martial force, does things entirely by his fists, and doesn't move his brain at all. This kind of person, if you ask him to do things step by step according to instructions, he can't do it. How could he be smart enough to carefully plan an escape route? When he feels safe, he will definitely stop. A person who doesn't know how to endure hardship won't go too far!"

Traveling in this day and age is too bitter!

The fatigue of the journey is not just talk.

Chen Guanlou, as a Ninth-Rank martial artist, is much faster than ordinary people, and he doesn't like to go out. Not to mention just a reckless man with only a bit of martial force!

"Fine, since you are not willing to take action, let the Six Shanmen catch the person. However, this matter should not be publicized, and must not let other government offices know, so as not to ruin the Ministry of Justice's reputation. In case it reaches the Emperor's ears, it might be bad!"

Chen Guanlou understood in his heart.

Sun Daoning asked him to come forward to catch people at first, the idea was to hide this matter as much as possible, and catch the real prisoner back silently.

He wasn't happy, so he could only let the Six Shanmen go up.

The Six Shanmen's people can be used with confidence; pick a few with tight mouths to catch people, I guess there won't be any problems.

"Don't worry, the Heavenly Prison side can definitely keep the secret. The key is Official She..."

"As for Official She, the official has his own ideas, don't intervene."

Chen Guanlou rolled his eyes silently. "As long as he doesn't offend me, I definitely won't target him. I am just a mere Heavenly Jiang Jiang Yucheng, not a Ministry of Justice judge."

He said this just to let Sun Daoning rest assured that he wouldn't overstep boundaries and wouldn't manage things that shouldn't be managed.

Officialdom, officials protecting officials, has been like this since ancient times.

He wasn't a person with great chivalry and unparalleled justice. It wasn't worth intervening in the Ministry of Justice's internal personnel.

However, Official She was on his blacklist.

Sun Daoning left in a hurry.

Chen Guanlou went to see Ming Qiang again, a poor boy, his biological mother was gone, and having a step-mother meant having a step-father.

"Old Mu, can he live independently in the future?"

"With the old man here, he can definitely live independently. It's just that his brain reaction will be slower."

"Slower doesn't matter, as long as he can live independently."

Chen Guanlou sighed twice. Old Man Ming was vicious, treating his biological son like an enemy, taking the blame was enough, and he even fed him poison.

Ming Qiang was dazed, falling on the straw, muddled. He seemed to know everything, seemed to know nothing. Anyway, his brain was a mess.

Medical Official Mu used soothing medicine for him to help him sleep.

He wanted to sympathize, but his sympathy was all used up. He instructed Mu Wenxu to take care of him, and his kindness ended here.

"The Ministry of Justice handled the case like this, didn't the Minister say anything?" Medical Official Mu asked curiously.

The two walked out of the Bing-character big prison together.

Chen Guanlou sneered. "What can he say! Once this matter is broken, it will be the Ministry of Justice's scandal, and will be impeached to death by those censors of the Censorate. The best plan is to try hard to cover it up and cover the lid tightly. Of course, the real murderer will definitely be punished."

Medical Official Mu nodded. "Indeed, it cannot be publicized. Don't provoke those censors if you can. It's not impossible to play replacing the peach with the plum, but the means are so rough. I guess it's the step-mother who can't stand the child born to the previous wife and tried every means to kill the other party."

"Ming Qiang is the eldest son of the Ming family. Even if Old Man Ming doesn't like him, the Ming family's clan elders won't watch the Ming family's eldest son being driven out of the house. The clan elders will also help him fight for the family property he deserves. Like this, it naturally offended the step-mother's interests."

Since ancient times, family internal conflicts reaching the point of life and death are all caused by conflicts of interest. Under normal circumstances, step-mothers and step-sons dislike each other, but not to the point of wanting to kill each other!

"Wealth moves people's hearts. Is the Ming family very rich?"

"Slightly have family assets!"

The Ming family is a big family in the local area, with farmland, mountains and forests, and two oil presses and a restaurant. It doesn't count for much in the capital, but in the countryside, it is a proper big family.

Ming Qiang's step-mother has some background, and several relatives on her maiden family side are promising. For example, Official She of the Ministry of Justice.

Old Man Ming values the woman he married later, and values the strength of the woman's maiden family. He doesn't even need the step-mother to blow pillow wind every day, Old Man Ming himself became biased, and began to dislike his eldest son Ming Qiang. Taking the eldest son to take the blame, without the slightest hesitation.

Hearing this, Medical Official Mu sighed twice, feeling it wasn't worth it for Ming Qiang.

"Fortunately, the official is here, otherwise Ming Qiang would have to go to the execution ground and die for the real murderer Ming Sheng. Wronged to death!"

Chen Guanlou said: "I didn't know about this matter, but since I know, and it's messing around on my territory, I definitely can't tolerate it." If Official She handled things finely, finding a willing scapegoat to replace Ming Sheng, he wouldn't say a word more.

But Official She treated the Heavenly Prison prison guards as fools, and also treated him, the prison warden, as a fool.

Sorry, he must kill Ming Sheng. Otherwise, he would really become a fool!

The Six Shanmen's professional personnel were dispatched and soon found Ming Sheng's whereabouts.

Ming Sheng, this two-hundred-and-fifty, really didn't run far. He stayed in a small town five hundred miles away, and it is said that he also got a mistress and lived in the mistress's home every day.

The Six Shanmen descended from the sky and took the person directly from the mistress's home.

Ming Sheng resisted, and it is said that his hands and feet were broken on the spot, and he also took a knife on his back!
