Chapter 1581

~8 min read 1,468 words

Consort Jing didn't know Shen Buzhi, and Consort Jing's brother, Eunuch Shen, didn't know Shen Buzhi either.

When the accident happened, one didn't remember things, and one hadn't been born yet. Who was in the Shen family and how many were implicated, they didn't know.

I guess the two families are not the same Shen.

When the sky was just dark, Chen Guanlou left Prince Rui's mansion, found a restaurant, ordered a table of wine and dishes, and drank alone.

Someone pushed open the private room door.

He didn't even need to look at the person coming, didn't need to explore the other party's aura, just listening to the footsteps, he knew the other party's identity.

"Coming early is not as good as coming coincidentally. Brother Wang, let's have a drink."

Chen Guanlou ordered the waiter to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and only then looked at Eunuch Wang Hai.

Wang Hai sat opposite him, and after the waiter added the bowls and chopsticks and retreated, he opened his mouth and said: "You went to Prince Rui's mansion?"

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows while pouring wine, and glanced at the other party, his tone slightly cold, "Are you following me?"

"No! I said I saw you coming out from the direction of Prince Rui's mansion inadvertently, do you believe me? I pondered that the only thing worth paying attention to in that direction should be Prince Rui's mansion. You shouldn't know the households of other people around."

Wang Hai explained hurriedly, fearing that the other party would misunderstand.

He didn't dare to follow!

He would only squat near the Heavenly Prison and act on orders. Privately, he absolutely didn't dare to follow.

Wei Wubing is very scary, and Chen Guanlou is also!

He couldn't win on either side, he could only survive, and please both sides.

Chen Guanlou smiled lightly, instantly resolving the slightly tense atmosphere in the private room, "That's right, I went to Prince Rui's mansion."

"What did you do at Prince Rui's mansion. Don't you know that Prince Rui's mansion cannot be mentioned now, and the people inside are the thorns in the eyes and thorns in the flesh of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor. Everyone stays far away, why did you take the initiative to lean over. Too dangerous."

Chen Guanlou had always had a question in his heart, so he took this opportunity to ask directly, "Does Empress Sun hate Consort Xiao more, or does she hate Consort Jing more? Does the Emperor hate the three Ning princes more, or does he hate Prince Rui who is still drinking milk more? Think about it and tell me."

Wang Hai:...

He really thought about this question seriously.

"Should hate Consort Xiao and her four children more."

"Are you sure?"

"Empress Sun and the Emperor fought with Consort Xiao and her four children for a lifetime, absolutely can be called hatred to the bone."

Chen Guanlou smiled in understanding, "As far as I know, Consort Xiao and her four children are living well now and haven't been blamed. I guess, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, for the time being, can't spare their hands to clean up Consort Jing and her son, right."

"If not for the Secretariat blocking..." Eunuch Wang Hai just said a few words and closed his mouth immediately. He knew deeply the truth that words are lost.

Chen Guanlou smiled with a look that was not quite a smile, "Why cover up in front of me, I know even if you don't say it. Thanks to the Secretariat blocking, Consort Xiao and her four children can be safe. They can be safe, Consort Jing and her son are also the same! In terms of threat, a mere Prince Rui can't compare to Prince Ning's finger."

Wang Hai frowned, the principle is this principle, but Consort Jing and her son are indeed hindering the Empress Dowager's eyes, hindering the Emperor's eyes.

"Even so, you cannot take it lightly. I can see that you came out of Prince Rui's mansion, and others can too. In case this matter reaches the Emperor's ears, and he questions it, what will you do?"

"I am a small prison warden, the Emperor personally questions, it is too small-minded. He dares to ask, but the court officials dare not answer! Don't you think?" Chen Guanlou teased.

"Words cannot be said like this. If the Emperor wants to clean you up, he can do it without going through the court, directly ordering the Embroidered Uniform Guard."

"Wait until the Embroidered Uniform Guard has the courage to come and arrest me. The Emperor is stupid, but I believe he is not stupid enough to argue with a prison warden. The late Emperor didn't do it, where does he get the face."

Wang Hai:...

Every sentence is a sentence that cuts off the head, truly making people difficult.

"Brother Chen, at least think for me. I am still working in the palace, absolutely cannot follow your words. Be careful that walls have ears."

Chen Guanlou looked at the other party with contempt, smiling lightly: "Two Ninth-Rank warriors talking, who doesn't want their life and dares to eavesdrop. Even if given the chance to eavesdrop, if he can hear a word, my name will be written backward."

"Although it is said so, at least make a gesture." Wang Hai was earnest, this is a restaurant, not the Heavenly Prison. Let's restrain a little, can we.

Chen Guanlou indicated that he couldn't restrain at all.

"Now that the Emperor has changed, is the work in the palace something you must do? Why not take the opportunity to leave and retire from the palace."

"I haven't reached the time to retire."

"If you can't let go of power, just say it."

"Can Brother Chen let go of the Heavenly Prison?" Wang Hai asked back.

Chen Guanlou smiled lightly, "There is no comparability between us! We are all dogs, at least I can howl freely a few times. What about you? What can you do freely? I observed carefully, your cultivation seems to have not made progress for a long time. Encountering a bottleneck, tried all methods but it didn't work, at this time you should consider changing an environment."

Wang Hai had nothing to say.

Because the situation was all guessed by the other party.

Cultivation has not made progress, encountering a bottleneck but unable to break through. One Emperor, one court, recently all busy with fighting and fighting, fighting for power and profit, suppressing dissidents, promoting their own people, laying out the imperial palace...

Busy with feet flying.

Coming out of the palace today is because it is a rest day, he originally planned to return to the mansion to rest directly. Met Chen Guanlou halfway, and then followed over to eat and drink.

As a result, he was stabbed in the heart!

Heart stuffy!

Sad!

"Brother Chen, you really know how to stab people. Where it hurts, you stab!"

Chen Guanlou laughed happily, "I am not the first time to stab, and it won't be the last. Have you thought clearly, do you want to withdraw, I will take you to fly!"

Wang Hai was a bit moved.

But it stopped at being moved.

Finally, he shook his head slowly, "I am still young, there are still many tasks in the palace waiting for me to handle."

Chen Guanlou smiled in understanding, very firmly saying: "If you continue like this, within five years, you will never have a chance to be promoted to the Grandmaster realm in this life. You will stop here in this life. You must think clearly!"

Wang Hai frowned, "Could it be that if I give up now, I can be promoted to Grandmaster?"

"No!" Chen Guanlou said truthfully, "If you give up everything now, you still have a slim chance to be promoted to the Grandmaster realm. This probability is very low. It depends on what you are seeking."

"That is to say, even if I give up, the probability is that I will stop here and never touch the edge of a Grandmaster."

"Hmm!"

Chen Guanlou scanned the other party several times, the aura on the other party was slightly chaotic, too many desires, wanting too much, the mind was not pure. More and more utilitarian!

If it were said that a few years ago, Wang Hai still had a thirty percent chance to touch the edge of a Grandmaster, now he didn't even have a one percent chance. Immersed in the fame and fortune field for too long, the heart is not pure, and it will inevitably be bitten back.

Martial arts path, cannot tolerate half-heartedness, fish and bear's paw cannot be obtained at the same time.

What a pity!
