"Many thanks to Minister Li for understanding our difficulties."

The other party didn't pick on him, so Chen Guanlou restrained his temper and didn't stimulate the other party.

Li Yanmo endured the discomfort all over his body and walked into the prison cell.

Looking around, he suddenly felt like he wanted to die.

"If Minister Li has any needs, just speak up. Compared to other prison cells, everything in the Heavenly Prison can be discussed. However, we will charge a little fee appropriately, I hope you understand."

"I have heard of the rules of the Heavenly Prison. Regarding money, you go directly to the Li Mansion to ask for it, it doesn't matter if you ask for more."

"It's not appropriate to ask directly. I still ask Minister Li to write a slip, at least have a voucher, so both sides can rest assured."

Li Yanmo held it in, holding the sullen air in his heart, picked up a pen and wrote a slip and handed it to the other party.

Chen Guanlou saw that the other party was cooperative and was very satisfied.

"Does Minister Li have anything he wants to eat or drink?"

"Give me a pot of wine, and two side dishes."

"Okay!" Chen Guanlou agreed readily, ordering the prison guards to notify the kitchen to open a small stove for the Duke's brother-in-law, and by the way, record the account.

"Minister Li, think about it, with your status, you will be able to go out soon."

Having finally come to a god of wealth, Chen Guanlou had a little more patience and enlightened the other party in a good voice.

"The Emperor and the grandmother cannot bear to see you suffer."

"Laboring Company Commander Chen to worry, I know!" Li Yanmo agreed with the other party's words, he himself thought so too.

The Imperial Consort sister had a deep affection for him, how could she let him be locked in the prison cell all the time. Even if the Imperial Consort sister had no conscience, his parents at home would find a way to fish him out.

Besides, the Emperor loved the Imperial Consort sister so much, the Emperor would definitely not sit idly by and watch him be bullied by others. Hitting his face was equivalent to hitting the Emperor's face.

Chen Guanlou told the prison guards to take good care of the Duke's brother-in-law, and left the Heavenly Prison, heading to the office.

Sun Daoning had been waiting for a long time.

"How is it, has he made a scene?"

"Old Sun, you underestimated the Duke's brother-in-law, he didn't make a scene. On the contrary, he cooperated throughout, and his speech was quite polite."

"What kind of Duke's brother-in-law is he." Sun Daoning sneered, his eyes very disdainful, "Just relying on the Imperial Consort, acting like a tyrant."

Chen Guanlou didn't care, it was just a title, not worth fighting and killing.

He drank tea, "Old Sun, looking at your meaning, this case is going to be handled? He is the elder brother of the Imperial Consort, the brother-in-law of the Emperor. If you investigate and handle the Duke's brother-in-law, the Imperial Consort will definitely not spare you. She can't move Xie Changling, but she still has ways to move you. The power of the pillow wind is not just empty talk."

"I know the measure."

"What does Xie Changling say? He won't let you be cannon fodder."

"Stop talking nonsense." Sun Daoning was dissatisfied, "Minister Xie is not the kind of person you think, you have too deep a misunderstanding of him."

Chen Guanlou laughed, seemingly laughing at Sun Daoning for being so naive and cute at such an old age.

"Old Sun, I have dealt with Xie Changling for a full year or more, almost meeting every day, often chatting. What kind of person he is, perhaps I know better than you. You have to be careful, don't delay yourself. Li Yanmo's case, just muddle through, no need to be serious. Imperial Consort Li's holy favor will not decline for a day, Li Yanmo cannot die! I am doing this for your sake, you cannot be ungrateful."

Chen Guanlou was really worried that Old Sun would fall into the mud without noticing for a while.

Emperor Yuanding and Xie Changling were fighting, what was the Ministry of Justice joining in the fun for.

Sun Daoning was really something, daring to take any dirty work, not afraid of being tired to death. Even if he wasn't tired to death, he might become a scapegoat.

"I have my own ideas, stop alarmist talk. Also, no one wants Li Yanmo's life! His life is worthless, and it will only attract a lot of trouble."

Chen Guanlou beamed with joy.

It's good that Old Sun has this realization.

Being an official, making a living, when you should be deaf, you should be deaf, when you should be blind, you should close your eyes tightly.

"You take good care of Li Yanmo, don't let anything happen to him. However, according to the rules, the Ministry of Justice will interrogate him after a while. You take the opportunity to knock a little more money out of him. The Li family is wealthy, not short of money."

"Old Sun, you have become bad." Chen Guanlou laughed, and Sun Daoning followed suit.

The big and small foxes were showing off together.

Qian Fugui took Li Yanmo's slip and took people to the Li family to get money.

The Li family was indeed generous, giving 3,000 taels in one breath.

Except for the 600 taels of fixed money, the rest were all recorded in the account.

With Li Yanmo's habit of enjoying, loving to eat and drink, more than 2,000 taels of silver wouldn't last long.

Congratulations!

After tossing for so long, thanks to Emperor Yuanding, thanks to Minister Xie, for sending a big fish to the Heavenly Prison!

Just eating this fish is enough to make the Heavenly Prison full!

Li Yanmo was arrogant, but also sensible and had good eyesight. Although he was not used to the prison environment, he did not make a scene.

If he felt itchy, he spent money to open medicine.

If he felt uncomfortable, he let the medical official check.

If he wanted to change his taste, he spent money to buy it.

Anyway, the main thing was spending money happily and having high cooperation.

The prison guards wanted to make things difficult for him, but they were embarrassed. Such a cooperative god of wealth must be enshrined.

Chen Guanlou would occasionally chat with the other party to help the other party relieve his mood.

Li Yanmo was only polite and distant at first, not saying much.

Later, he was really uncomfortable holding it in. When Chen Guanlou came to chat with him again, he was much more sincere.

"Company Commander Chen, is there no movement in the palace? I have been in for almost half a month, why am I still not released?"

He thought this trip to the Heavenly Prison would end in three to five days at most.

As a result, after half a month, he was still locked in the prison cell.

"Minister Li, don't worry. According to the records of the Heavenly Prison, the person who was released from prison the fastest took three months. I believe you can definitely break this record."

"Three months?"

Wouldn't that cost him his life.

Li Yanmo picked at his itch, his face very ugly, while saying: "Is there no news from the Ministry of Justice?"

"There is indeed a piece of news. I heard that in two days, the Ministry of Justice is coming to interrogate you."

"What? Still need to be interrogated!" Li Yanmo was shocked.

He, a dignified Duke's brother-in-law, going to the Ministry of Justice to be interrogated, how shameful.

He gritted his teeth, very unwilling.

Chen Guanlou comforted him, "In the past, Duke's brother-in-law Xiao Changsheng was also imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison for more than half a year. Not only was he interrogated, he almost died of illness. By the way, the prison cell you are living in now, Duke's brother-in-law Xiao also lived in it."

Hearing this, Li Yanmo jumped up instantly.

It was as if Xiao Changsheng's soul was trapped in this prison cell, staring at him.

His heart felt cold, and he felt itchier all over.

"Company Commander Chen, are you lying to me? Did Xiao Changsheng really live in this prison cell?"

"Why would I lie to you. The Heavenly Prison has limited space and limited funds, there are only a few VIP prison cells. Other cells haven't been cleaned up and can't be lived in. Could it be that you want to change to a normal prison cell? Sleep on a bed board, eat bugs?"

"No, no, no... this prison cell is very good, I don't plan to change prison cells."

Just thinking that Xiao Changsheng was also imprisoned in this prison cell, and the person was dead, Li Yanmo suddenly felt uncomfortable, suspicious, and suspected a curse. He also began to doubt Chen Guanlou's intentions?

Why mention Xiao Changsheng?

Could it be that he is reminding him of the same status and similar fate?

Impossible!

The Xiao family is a broken family, how can it be compared to the Li family. He will never end up like Xiao Changsheng.
