Chapter 1603

Medical Official Mu was persuaded.

The Mu family was very weak, and now that Mu Wenxu had become an imperial physician, it was hard to guarantee that he wouldn't be involved in palace struggles in the future.

The Mu family's previous lessons were very profound, and they couldn't repeat the same mistakes.

Profound Heaven Sect, Profound Heaven Sect.

If this sect were formally established, he couldn't even imagine what scale it would develop into.

"My lord, since we are going to build a sect, shouldn't we choose a prime location and formally open the sect!"

"No rush for this!"

Chen Guanlou pondered for a moment and asked, "Finding a mountain, building a sect, how much money do you think it would cost?"

Medical Official Mu suddenly understood the connotation of "no rush for this."

The corners of his mouth twitched, and he said cautiously: "Ordinary, tens of thousands of taels should be needed. Considering that the sect will have many disciples in the future and the scale will get bigger and bigger, in this case, we certainly can't find a small mountain. If we find a big mountain, we can't just build two houses and be done with it. Everything other sects have, we must have. In this way, the money invested one after another might be an astronomical figure."

Chen Guanlou:...

He suddenly understood why those sects liked to recruit the silly sons of landlords as disciples, and even more liked to recruit the young masters of powerful families as disciples.

Money is needed everywhere!

Besides money, occupying a mountain to be king and opening a sect must borrow momentum.

Without the court's permission, privately occupying a mountain to be king, that's not a sect, that's a mountain bandit, and also a rebel! The court can send troops to wipe them out at any time.

Even if not afraid of the court, one can't stand being harassed by the government every three days. Disciples walking in the Jianghu are mocked as a wild sect.

Can't afford to lose that face!

Therefore...

"Don't build the sect yet!"

Don't have that financial strength!

Don't have that many people either.

Adding up the whole sect, plus the Sect Leader, there are only three or four kittens, not worth building a sect.

Temporarily use the private residence as the sect's foothold.

Medical Official Mu expressed understanding, but in his heart, he was thinking, I hope it's not just a dizzy moment, like playing house.

Immediately after, he worried about another thing, "My lord, is it appropriate for you to pull eunuchs into the group?"

"Why is it not appropriate. I also plan to pull monks into the group."

He had already thought it through; next time he went to the Lu Prince's Mansion, he would try his best to persuade Master Zhitong to join the Profound Heaven Sect and serve as an elder of the first Elder Council of the Profound Heaven Sect!

He even planned to pull Pure Yang Zhenren into the group.

Medical Official Mu looked unbearable, "My lord, is this sect of yours a sect for preaching and teaching, or a sect for forming cliques?"

"Is there a difference?"

"The difference is huge!"

Chen Guanlou understood Medical Official Mu's meaning. Preaching and teaching, like the Jade Spring Palace, is a proper sect inheritance.

Forming cliques, like a chamber of commerce, or an association in later generations, the organization is loose, sharing resources, and also has the meaning of preaching and teaching inside. However, it is different from a proper sect inheritance.

An association can be founded, and naturally can be dissolved, without personal attachment.

A major feature of a sect is the existence of personal attachment!

"There's no difference here! We don't do it so seriously."

"Isn't this like a cult."

"Nonsense! Cults can't be on the table, the Profound Heaven Sect is a proper sect."

"My lord, let me ask one more question. The first disciple of the Profound Heaven Sect, wouldn't it be the great rebel Zhang Kang."

Chen Guanlou pinched his nose and said nothing.

Medical Official Mu was suddenly furious, "Absolutely not, I firmly oppose it. In the capacity of the Great Elder of the sect, I firmly oppose Zhang Kang being the first disciple. He must be expelled from the sect!"

"I have already expelled him from the sect. However, he is stubborn, and still considers himself the first disciple of the Profound Heaven Sect."

Medical Official Mu was furious, "He doesn't deserve it! He is a rebel, what qualifications does he have. My lord, the Profound Heaven Sect is a famous and upright sect, right."

Chen Guanlou nodded affirmatively, "Of course! We don't take crooked paths."

"Since it is a famous and upright sect, how can the first disciple be a rebel. My lord was right to expel him from the sect. I think, when necessary, this matter must be made public and recorded."

Chen Guanlou nodded, "Fine, everything according to you."

Disciples are not important, elders are very important.

At this moment, Chen Guanlou had the idea of establishing the most luxurious Elder Council in the world. As for disciples, it doesn't matter! Three-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged martial artists are everywhere on the street.

The Sect Leader and the Great Elder whispered and discussed for a long time, initially determining the general direction of the sect and the sect's purpose.

As for the sect rules, Medical Official Mu took it all on himself, "Leave this to me! I definitely won't let the lord down."

Chen Guanlou was a bit curious, never expecting Old Mu to be so attentive to the construction of the Profound Heaven Sect.

The two were chatting excitedly, not knowing that Chen Quan was almost anxious to death.

He couldn't help it, ran to the office, "My lord, the death of Xiao Changsheng, shouldn't it be reported to the Ministry of Justice."

"Of course! You take the document to the Ministry of Justice now, and let the Ministry of Justice hurry to send someone to perform an autopsy. Old Mu, after the Ministry of Justice comes, you put in more effort."

"Yes!" Medical Official Mu agreed.

Chen Quan was still anxious, "My lord, when the Ministry of Justice asks, how should we answer."

"Tell the truth. Xiao Changsheng couldn't think straight and secretly swallowed poison. The poison was given by Imperial Concubine Xiao. If the Ministry of Justice is dissatisfied, go find Imperial Concubine Xiao to ask for guilt. The Heavenly Prison has fulfilled its responsibility, don't even think about dumping the pot on the Heavenly Prison."

Chen Quan instantly felt confident, "The small one understands, the small one will go to the Ministry of Justice to report Xiao Changsheng's death."

Once Xiao Changsheng died, the Ministry of Justice was indeed shocked, scolding the Heavenly Prison and scolding Chen Guanlou for dereliction of duty. Many people ran to Sun Daoning and shouted, demanding severe punishment for Chen Guanlou, and not allowing the man surnamed Chen to continue serving as the Heavenly Jiang Jiang Yucheng.

Since Chen Guanlou served as the Heavenly Jiang Jiang Yucheng, the Ministry of Justice officials could no longer show off in the Heavenly Prison.

It's infuriating!

This breath had been held for many years.

This time, they must not let him go.

Sun Daoning didn't express his position, but directly brought people to the Heavenly Prison, wanting to perform the autopsy himself and investigate the cause of death.

Chen Guanlou came out to receive them, without the slightest guilt, and said generously: "The person committed suicide by taking poison, took the poison in the middle of the night, and no one discovered it. By the time it was discovered, it was too late."

The group arrived at the morgue.

There was already a bit of a smell.

Sun Daoning had a livid face.

Chen Guanlou signaled the coroner to lift the white cloth.

Instantly, Xiao Changsheng's smiling face, which died very happily, appeared in front of everyone, startling everyone.

The smiling face was maintained throughout; looking at it, it died very abnormally, very weirdly. Besides poison, there was no other thought.

Sun Daoning took a deep breath, "Where did the poison come from?"

"Given by Imperial Concubine Xiao!"

"Why didn't you stop it."

"Couldn't stop it!" Chen Guanlou told the truth, "Xiao Changsheng had the heart to hide it, and the prison guards didn't have the ability to reach the sky."

"The prison guards don't have the ability to reach the sky, but you do. Why didn't you stop it?" Sun Daoning questioned him.

Chen Guanlou said solemnly, "I thought the Ministry of Justice had already acquiesced to this matter."

"Presumptuous! How could the Ministry of Justice acquiesce!"
