Chapter 254: Don't Brag, One Finger Can Wipe Out Everyone

Sun Daoning's exhortation clearly contained deep meaning.

Chen Guanlou was a little panicked and asked boldly: "Please give me a clear hint, my lord!"

Sun Daoning pondered, seemingly hesitating whether to speak clearly, "You just need to remember to keep your duty."

Chen Guanlou blinked, there are many ways to keep one's duty.

His brain flashed, and he asked: "Dare to ask my lord, why didn't the Zhuang family send anyone to protect Taifu?"

"Taifu was sent to prison, the Zhuang family was in a mess, all counting on the Donggong. Have you checked the cook sent by the Zhuang family? Is there any problem?"

"Checked, it's a family-born servant of the Zhuang family, Taifu has always eaten the meals he cooked."

"That's good. This official is busy, you work hard."

Sun Daoning didn't want to say more and left the Heavenly Prison after explaining.

Chen Guanlou first asked Niu Yucheng for instructions, understood the spirit, and then took the prison guards to meet the Donggong guards. It is necessary to get along well for long-term cooperation.

Cui guard comes from a famous family, the famous Cui clan of Qingzhou, and clearly has the arrogance of a family child. When he learned that Chen Guanlou came from the Chen family in the capital, the Chen of Marquis Pingjiang, he blurted out: "How can you be so self-deprecating?"

He clearly regarded Chen Guanlou as the same kind of person, both from noble families.

As a family child, how can you not care about your reputation and be a prison guard.

Self-deprecating!

Chen Guanlou's mouth twitched, he had rarely heard similar words in the past two years. Hearing it suddenly, it was quite harsh.

He chuckled, explaining lightly: "Out of the five clothes."

"Even if it's out of the five clothes, you shouldn't..." He had some eye-catching ability, seeing Chen Guanlou's expression sink, he took back the words that hadn't been spoken. But his eyes were clearly contemptuous and looked down on him.

Chen Guanlou chuckled, appearing very indifferent, "You twelve people, work in three shifts, guarding Taifu's cell door every day. For specific things to pay attention to, ask him, he will follow the whole process."

He pushed Xiao Jin out.

Xiao Jin:...

Xiao Jin could only smile with his face, "If there are any difficulties, you can ask me."

Cui guard stared at Chen Guanlou, he was not ignorant of human feelings. Being in the Donggong, how could he not have some eye-catching ability. He not only understood, but was also very good at it. However, in his heart, the Heavenly Prison prison guards were not worth his human feelings, including Chen Guanlou. Typical arrogance, typical family child style.

"In the Jia-grade prison, Chen Tou has the final say?"

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly, "I am sharing worries for Fan Yuli, helping to manage miscellaneous affairs."

"Okay, understood."

Neither of them had the idea of getting close to each other. The original welcoming wine was also cancelled. Chen Guanlou didn't have the patience to deal with this group of guard masters.

It was clear that the guard masters also looked down on their group of prison guards and didn't have the patience to eat wine together, thinking it was low-grade.

Both sides had a tacit understanding, pretending that there was no such thing as a welcoming wine.

Chen Guanlou returned to the duty room, Xiao Jin and others followed behind him, waiting for further instructions.

"Act according to the rules, just keep your duty." Chen Guanlou suddenly realized the deep meaning of Sun Daoning asking him to keep his duty. This group of Donggong guards is not easy to deal with, each with eyes growing on the top of their heads, looking down on others.

Think about it, when the Crown Prince ascends the throne in the future, this group of confidant guards, without accident, will all be released as officials, starting at least at the fifth rank. Those with outstanding ability, mixing a title in the future is not impossible.

With such a high starting point, how can they get along with a group of lowly prison guards? This is a society with clear classes, and there is no possibility of family members sitting together to eat with commoners.

The key is that these guards are all martial artists, the worst are second rank. The leader, Cui guard, is actually a fifth-rank martial artist.

High-level martial artists rarely seen in the market, the Donggong can catch a lot of them at will. Responding to that sentence, high-level martial artists have three places to go: sects, noble families, and the royal family!

There will be no fourth place.

High-level martial artists who wander the Jianghu and fight alone have not been seen so far.

Xiao Jin and others all showed hesitation.

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

"Chen Tou, those people are martial artists, I am worried."

"What is there to worry about. Just keep them at a distance. Could it be that they dare to kill at will? This is the Heavenly Prison, our territory." Chen Guanlou's tone was light, but his eyes showed a fierce look, and the duty room was already cold, and at this moment there was a suffocating illusion.

Seeing that Xiao Jin and others were uncomfortable, Chen Guanlou hurriedly restrained his aura, "Don't worry, with me here, I will definitely protect you."

"Chen Tou is righteous."

"Chen Tou, don't worry, we will definitely not provoke them actively. If there are any needs, we will try our best to satisfy them."

"Guarantee to get along well with them."

They are all serving masters, serving whoever is not serving.

"Resolutely not cause trouble for Chen Tou."

"Alright, alright, I have received your intentions. I have known you for so many years, I know your temper, none of you are people who provoke right and wrong. Don't worry too much, everyone has the same goal, all to protect Taifu's safety. I think they won't go too far."

Chen Guanlou tried his best to appease, he could see that several people

He arranged the shifts for the prison guards, made contingency plans, and then accompanied the medical official to examine the Grand Tutor's health.

The medical official comes to the Heavenly Prison every day to take the Grand Tutor's pulse; this was something he specifically requested. He is just afraid of any accidents.

Medical Official Mu is very impatient, yet he has no other choice.

"Do you know why this old man doesn't serve as an Imperial Physician? It's because I don't want to treat these people; the trouble is annoying to death. You really are finding work for me."

"Old Master, you must also show some understanding for me. The higher-ups handed such a hot potato to me; what can I do? I can only trouble you to suffer the fatigue and make a trip here every day. Don't worry, I will definitely help you collect two stalks of old ginseng. Those officials have plenty of good things in their homes."

He has decided that next time, he will not ask for antiques or calligraphy and paintings, but only precious medicinal herbs, to repay Medical Official Mu's kindness.

"This is something you promised with your own mouth: two stalks of old ginseng, century-old. 99 years won't do; they must be over a century old."

"Yes, yes, yes, I will definitely help you find them. You know what I'm capable of."

Medical Official Mu gave a hum, picked up his medical kit, and went to take Grand Tutor Zhuang's pulse to ensure his safety.

With Guard Cui absent, he finished arranging the shift work and left with the remaining people.

Chen Guanlou looked at the two door gods on his left and right; of the remaining two, one was guarding the corridor and one was guarding the fence. Second Rank, Third Rank—it's not him bragging, but he could wipe out these few people with a single finger.

"The four of you can take turns on duty; guarding a prison cell is a very dull affair."

The Crown Prince's guard glanced at him and ignored him.

Chen Guanlou pinched his nose, blaming himself for being a busybody.

He followed Medical Official Mu into the prison cell.

Grand Tutor Zhuang had a book placed by his hand, which he had already read halfway through.

Medical Official Mu was currently taking his pulse.

"Little Chen is here!" Grand Tutor Zhuang had a very good attitude and greeted him with a chuckle. "This old man has said before, there is no need to come and take my pulse every day; this old man is very safe living in the Heavenly Prison."
