Chapter 1421: Making a Big Scene to Catch People is Just for Show

The Embroidered Uniform Guard has a dog's nose, smelling the scent and chasing after them.

Chen Guanlou came to the front yard and saw an old friend, the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Xiao Jincheng, Master Xiao.

"Master Xiao, you actually followed me?"

Upon meeting, Chen Guanlou took the initiative and questioned him sharply. He had the posture of wanting to draw his blade and kill if they didn't agree.

Xiao Jincheng's face was serious. "Actually seeing Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen here is truly an accident. This official has been here on official business for two months; what is Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen doing here? Oh, this official seems to have heard a piece of news, the Hou Fu seems to have lost something. Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen coming here, wouldn't it be to run errands for the Hou Fu."

He deliberately made a sudden realization, as if he had just remembered.

Chen Guanlou sneered. "Catching whom?"

Asked very directly.

"The Embroidered Uniform Guard is handling the case, unrelated personnel please move aside!"

Xiao Jincheng had the posture of doing business officially.

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows and smiled knowingly.

He turned and walked into the adjacent room.

A moment later, Xiao Jincheng followed into the room.

In public, you have to leave enough face for the other party. After all, they are public officials, and they can't lose their prestige in front of subordinates.

Chen Guanlou poured tea himself. "Master Xiao is truly busy. Speak, who are you catching?"

Xiao Jincheng held the teacup, his expression ambiguous. "Catching Zhang Kang! The whole brothel has been surrounded. To prevent the rebels from escaping, this official mobilized the local garrison and blocked every intersection. Follow-up rebel-suppression armies will arrive one after another. If Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen is not busy, you can stay and watch the fun."

"Zhang Kang is in the brothel?" Chen Guanlou looked very surprised.

"Whether he is in the brothel or not, you don't know?" Xiao Jincheng asked with a smile.

Chen Guanlou sneered. "You really were following me."

Xiao Jincheng shook his head and denied it. "It was just a coincidence. I was here on official business, and heard from the people below that you came here. We two, old friendship, I definitely had to come and see you. Who knew it was such a coincidence that I actually discovered the traces of the rebel Zhang Kang."

"Since you know I'm here, you still make a big scene to catch people. Do you think you can catch him?" Chen Guanlou looked relaxed and comfortable, biting on peanuts.

He only cared about the lesson tonight, didn't eat two bites of food, and now he was a bit hungry! Inside the room, besides tea, there was only a plate of peanuts to satisfy his hunger!

"Can't catch him! But must catch him!"

This is a matter of attitude.

Xiao Jincheng had a posture of having nothing to fear, even more arrogant than Chen Guanlou.

Chen Guanlou stared at the other party for a few times, and suddenly laughed. "What do you want?"

"Zhang Kang is your apprentice, he is the grandson of Wu Dashou, and you were the one who saved him from the Heavenly Prison back then. I'm not wrong, am I."

Chen Guanlou firmly denied it. "I don't know what you are talking about."

"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, anyway, everyone knows it in their hearts. Rest assured, I haven't told anyone about this, and I've hidden it from the Emperor."

"Making such a big scene to catch people, what exactly do you want?"

Chen Guanlou leaned back on the chair, crossed his legs, completely unafraid of the other party making conditions.

Xiao Jincheng laughed. "Hand over Zhang Daohe to me. I'll spare your apprentice once, and guarantee not to catch him for a year."

"He is not my apprentice, his life or death has nothing to do with me."

"Saying one thing and meaning another. Since it has nothing to do with you, why do you want to protect him!" Xiao Jincheng scolded sharply.

Chen Guanlou spread his hands. "I brought a person to the brothel to drink, as the host, I have the responsibility to ensure his safe departure. As for whether he is the rebel Zhang Kang you want to catch, it's none of my business, and I don't know. I'm only responsible for sending him home, do you understand?"

"Sophistry! It seems that in your heart, the cult leader is more important than the apprentice."

Chen Guanlou was noncommittal, continuing to drink tea and eat peanuts.

Xiao Jincheng deliberated. "I'll change the way I say it! I don't want to catch Zhang Daohe, but I have a business to cooperate with him. If I say it this way, can you agree?"

Chen Guanlou didn't make a sound, waiting for the other party's follow-up.

Xiao Jincheng frowned. "Between us, ten years of friendship, can't you even help with this small favor?"

Chen Guanlou sneered, laughing at the other party for being a two-hundred-fifty.

He said softly: "Master Xiao, everyone is a thousand-year-old fox, why continue to sell the pass. You might as well tell me your purpose honestly; if I see your sincerity, maybe I'll be happy to help you, and the price can even be discounted for you.

If you want to play the tricks of civil officials, then I'm sorry, I won't accompany you! Remember, you are not my opponent, and all the Embroidered Uniform Guards combined are not my opponent. If I want to take someone away, no one can stop me!"

"I need an opportunity!"

Seeing that Chen Guanlou was about to leave, Xiao Jincheng decisively revealed his true purpose.

Chen Guanlou looked back, looking very shocked.

"Are you joking. You are the head of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, you have so many men, what can't you do. You still need to beg a cult leader. To find an opportunity, let the people under you find it!"

"The people under me are all the imperial court's men, I'm just temporarily acting as the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Moreover, the cases on the Embroidered Uniform Guard's desk are piled up like a mountain, and there aren't enough loyal personnel to help me find the opportunity."

Xiao Jincheng was frank, truly very sincere.

"Zhang Daohe is different, he is a cult leader, he can mobilize all the cult members to help him find the opportunity. Thousands, tens of thousands of people! I, a mere Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, don't have such great ability!"

After saying that, he laughed at himself!

Chen Guanlou laughed, sitting back in the chair.

"Let your people withdraw, let all the guests in the brothel leave, we can talk slowly. You want an opportunity, I have a ready-made opportunity here that I can give you, it just depends on whether you have that luck."

"Good! Deal!"

Xiao Jincheng called his confidant and whispered a few words.

Soon, the Embroidered Uniform Guards in the courtyard withdrew one after another.

But they didn't go far, but surrounded the brothel from the outside, surrounding three sides and leaving one, leaving a door, allowing the brothel guests to leave at will!

Zhang Kang suddenly came over.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room became very suffocating.

Xiao Jincheng stared at Zhang Kang, muttering: "Really like! Rebelling and still wearing such a face

Zhang Kang glanced at the other party, ignored him, and instead asked with concern, "Master, is he threatening you? You can hand me over."

"Get lost!" Chen Guanlou was very impatient and particularly disgusted, "How many people in this world can threaten me? The Embroidered Uniform Guard has already retreated, get lost quickly!"

"I'm not leaving! If Master doesn't leave, I won't leave!" Zhang Kang was stubborn!

Xiao Jincheng watched this scene and laughed out loud, "I didn't expect you to have a day like this!"

Chen Guanlou was furious!

He kicked Zhang Kang over, knocked him unconscious, and threw him to his subordinates.

"Take him away quickly. Tell him that in a few days I'll go find him to collect the debt, and tell him to wash his neck clean and wait. What a reckless thing!"

The rebel leader, right in front of the Embroidered Uniform Guard leader, left just like that!

It could be called the biggest joke of the Jian Shi reign!
