Chapter 1816: Don't talk to me about innocence, you don't deserve it

"What right do you have to discuss life and death with me, you don't deserve it!"

Count of Fanyang, Lü Pu, was furious, his posture still set high.

Chen Guanlou lowered his head and smiled, as if he had heard a joke.

"You dare!"

Count of Fanyang, Lü Pu, finally knew fear at this moment.

"I cannot die! Chen Guanlou, nobles are of the same branch, you cannot kill me. If I die in the Heavenly Prison, you will definitely be unable to eat and walk around, and Chen Guanfu will have no way to explain to other nobles."

"If you don't want to die, then be honest for me, learn how to speak well." Chen Guanlou gritted his teeth, not hiding his disgust for Count of Fanyang, Lü Pu, and the mood of wanting to kill the other party.

Count of Fanyang, Lü Pu's lips opened and closed, obviously anger burning in his heart, wanting to spit out fragrance.

But under the threat of death, he swallowed those scolding words.

"Good! I promise you, accept your apology. If there is anything, wait until after getting out of prison."

Chen Guanlou barely revealed a satisfied smile. "How good it would be to be like this earlier, forcing me to clean you up. Don't find trouble for me in the future, don't be picky about food. Whatever Medical Official Mu tells you to eat, you eat."

Count of Fanyang, Lü Pu, had many dissatisfactions, many requirements, but facing Chen Guanlou's disgusted gaze, all swallowed them. Forget it, forget it, endure him for now.

Wait until getting out of prison in the future, then make plans.

Compared to the Count of Fanyang, Cui Qingping's side was much more peaceful.

Cui Qingping decided to submit a memorial to defend himself, asking Chen Guanlou to transfer it to the Ministry of Justice, and then transfer it to the Political Affairs Hall by the Ministry of Justice.

"This official asks himself, since becoming an official, I dare not say that every single thing is worthy of conscience, at least it can be called diligent and conscientious. Never formed a party for private interests, never took bribes, and never killed innocent people, or forcibly seized other people's industries. Just because my family set up some mountains and forests in the suburbs of the capital, it hindered the Emperor's eyes, so I was imprisoned. This official is not convinced! Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, this official wants to submit a memorial to defend himself, please make it convenient."

Chen Guanlou agreed readily. "Okay! I'll have people prepare the four treasures of the study, and I'll send them to you in a while. Actually, you don't need to show innocence in front of me, because I don't believe it at all. You want to defend yourself, no one will stop you."

"This official is innocent, you don't need to believe it or not." Cui Qingping's attitude was firm.

Chen Guanlou sneered. "As an official, how many people's bottoms are clean. You treat me as a three-year-old child, whatever you say I believe. Those words, you go and tell the Emperor, no need to tell me."

"Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, you have misunderstandings about the officialdom and this official. The officialdom is not without good people." Cui Qingping didn't allow anyone to slander himself.

Chen Guanlou was full of sarcasm. "Even if there are good people, it's not your turn, Minister Cui. Yes, you didn't embezzle a tael of silver. But don't forget, your servants, your clansmen, relying on your identity, wantonly annexed land outside, excluded dissidents in the market, seized other people's industries, and sought benefits for your Cui family. If you really want to discuss it, do you think the Cui family can withstand an investigation?"

Cui Qingping was furious. "Nonsense!"

Chen Guanlou lowered his head and smiled. "Minister Cui, are you angry from embarrassment? No need to be like this. You write your memorial, I do my duty, we don't interfere with each other. In the future, don't mention innocence in front of me, you don't deserve it!"

Cui Qingping suppressed his anger and took a deep breath. "Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen's reminder is right. This official indeed has no need to mention the word innocence in front of you. Please prepare the four treasures of the study."

"Easy to say!"

Chen Guanlou didn't make things difficult for the other party.

Treating the god of wealth, he was always very tolerant and patient.

Count of Fanyang, Lü Pu, was an exception.

A self-defense memorial, Cui Qingping deliberated and deliberated, spending a full three days to write it well. He solemnly handed it to Chen Guanlou. "Please be sure to send it to Minister Sun, please ask him to transfer it on my behalf, let the Emperor know this official's innocence."

"Don't worry, I'll send it to the Ministry of Justice in a while, ensuring it won't delay things. However, the Heavenly Prison has no free errands."

"Just open the price!"

"Five hundred taels."

"Deal!" Cui Qingping called out good fellow in his heart, robbing money. But he didn't have a single complaint, without a moment's hesitation. Compared to the memorial, a mere five hundred taels was given, and it wasn't that he couldn't afford it.

Extraordinary times call for extraordinary things, money is not a problem.

Chen Guanlou crossed out five hundred taels from Cui Qingping's account, took the memorial, and went straight to the Ministry of Justice.

He kept his word, took money to do things, and didn't cheat children or old people.

The memorial was sent directly to Sun Daoning. "Cui Qingping's self-defense memorial, please transfer it on my behalf."

"Cui Qingping? Has he been peaceful these days?"

"Very peaceful! Also willing to spend money. He is an excellent prisoner official." Chen Guanlou made this evaluation, Sun Daoning's mouth twitched, but he still couldn't help laughing.

"If he heard you evaluate him like this, I don't know what he would think. You go back and tell him that this official has received the memorial and will submit it at his discretion, let him wait patiently for the result. This memorial..."

Sun Daoning looked carefully at the content inside. "It might disappoint him. This time His Majesty is coming fiercely, he is the first to bear the brunt, how could His Majesty pardon him because of a memorial. It's not just a waste of effort, maybe it will lead to more serious punishment."

"These don't need us to worry. Since he dares to submit a self-defense memorial, he must bear the storm that may come."

Sun Daoning pondered for a while. "You go back and warn him to have patience. Minister Xie will not sit idly by and will definitely find a way to rescue him."

Chen Guanlou agreed readily, but he didn't intend to convey this.

Sun Daoning asked about another person again. "How is the Count of Fanyang these days, is his body okay?"

"It's okay, he won't die."

Sun Daoning was a bit confused, looking at him incomprehensibly. This tone sounded like he was full of complaints and stuffy.

"Did you have a conflict with the Count of Fanyang?"

"People are old, eyes are dim, it's inevitable." Chen Guanlou's expression was half-smiling, looking like he didn't want to say more.

Sun Daoning frowned. "No matter how you quarrel, in short, it must be controlled within the Heavenly Prison. Don't make a scene. You also restrain yourself, he is old, old child old child, some bad temper is normal. You be more tolerant, don't let him have an accident."

"Old Sun, I found that you are quite good to this group of nobles."

Sun Daoning snorted coldly. "You are also a descendant of nobles, don't you know how difficult it is to serve this group of nobles in the capital. One by one, relying on the ancestor's shade, lawless."

"The Hou Fu is not like this." Chen Guanlou definitely wanted to defend the Hou Fu.

"That's just to you! If you have time, carefully observe the Hou Fu's attitude towards outsiders, and you will know that this old man doesn't have a single false word. This group of nobles, this old man has a headache!"

Therefore, the Heavenly Prison set up the Grade B prison, specifically for those nobles and martial generals who committed crimes, and handled them specially. ===== CHAPTER 1817 =====
