Chapter 28: This son is not enough to conspire

A big black pot was covered on the Crown Prince's head, and the Crown Prince called out that he had bad luck for eight lifetimes. He was even more annoyed and hated Jiang Tu, wanting to get rid of it quickly. He was also full of dissatisfaction with the old Emperor.

He didn't dare to say it, but it didn't prevent him from thinking in his heart that the old Emperor was getting older and more confused.

Dare to ask if there is a thirty-year Crown Prince in the world?

A sense of urgency was born in his heart, and he was eager to hold power. He wished he could rush to the old Emperor and confess, the son is willing to share worries for the father, and the father can rest assured to practice alchemy in the Taiji Palace from now on. The various things in the court, as the Crown Prince, he is duty-bound, and will definitely handle them well with the assistance of the ministers, not letting the father worry at all.

It's a pity that he only dared to think about it.

The old Emperor attacked the Crown Prince, and before he was out of breath, he called the ministers to scold them, scolding the ministers for not knowing how to share worries for the monarch and father, and disturbing him all day with trivial matters, delaying his alchemy event.

In front of the ministers, he scolded Jiang Tu, scolding the other party for failing the imperial grace. He dismissed Jiang Tu's official position on the spot and let him go home to reflect.

The ministers saw it, okay, the Emperor is clearly raising high and putting down lightly, clearly wanting to continue to protect Jiang Tu.

Dismissal is a fart.

Jiang Tu can return to his post at any time, and maybe he can be promoted by one level, just one word from the old Emperor.

This round, it seems the Marquis mansion won, but actually only won a face. The real winner is still Jiang Tu.

Jiang Tu is favored by the Emperor, and in a short time, don't think about driving him out of the court.

The most unlucky one is the Crown Prince, who was involved in this right and wrong just because of one sentence, and was also suspected by the old Emperor of harboring evil intentions, and was scolded on the spot for not being like a human son. It can be said that there is no inside or face, and he is still reflecting in the East Palace.

However, Jiang Tu also offended the Crown Prince because of this.

The ministers are happy to see it happen.

These right and wrong, the only thing related to the Heavenly Prison is that on the day Jiang Tu was dismissed, the manor guards of the landlord surnamed Liu were released on the spot. The gang members were each given ten boards, plus a fine of ten taels of silver, and were all rolled out of the Heavenly Prison.

As for the victim of this case, the person who was beaten to death, no one really cares. It's just a corpse tool for filling numbers. Who cares about a tool.

Xu Fugui sighed at the pity, complaining that Chen Guanlou delayed his making money.

If he had known that Jiang Tu would lose this lawsuit, he shouldn't have listened to Chen Guanlou, directly beat money, and made a fortune.

Chen Guanlou didn't argue, just asked, "Does Xu Uncle really think Jiang Tu lost?"

"He was dismissed, it's not him who lost, could it be that he won. Okay, okay, I know what you want to say. I don't mean to blame you, just pity a sum of silver. People locked in the Heavenly Prison, according to the rules, all have to spit out silver. Even the official grandfathers of the Jia-character size prison are no exception. I will take this matter as buying a lesson, you go busy yourself."

Chen Guanlou promised and left decisively.

He couldn't control Xu Fugui's thoughts, only to say that this son is not enough to conspire.

Lu Datou knew he was scolded, and invited him to drink to comfort him, "Don't take it to heart. This case, no one got money, and we white-operated so much heart, everyone has grievances in their hearts."

Chen Guanlou muttered, "Jiang Tu is favored by the Emperor, sooner or later he will return to his post."

"How did you see it? Why are you so sure that Jiang Tu is still favored by the Emperor? The Emperor dismissed his official position."

"Dismissal is just an expedient measure to block the mouths of the people. After all, Jiang Tu has infringed on the interests of many people in the past few years, and everyone doesn't look at him pleasingly, and he has long been full of public anger. But because he is full of public anger, in the Emperor's heart, he is more trustworthy. A lonely minister with no reliance, the only reliance is the Emperor's favor."

This only reliance is also his amulet, the reason why the old Emperor trusts him. In the old Emperor's eyes, Jiang Tu didn't collude with any forces, only loyal to him. This 'simple' loyalty wins over all the civil and military officials in the court.

"This is just your one-sided word, it doesn't count." Lu Datou retorted casually.

Chen Guanlou didn't argue, just smiled and said, "At the end of this year, we will see the outcome. By then, Brother Datou will know whether I am right or wrong."

"If this matter is accurate, I will invite you to drink by then." Lu Datou was very refreshing and made a promise casually. A meal of wine, for the income of a prison clerk, is a small matter. Ten meals of wine are not a problem.

The two were drinking, and Zhang Wantong also walked into the restaurant with his apprentices and grandchildren.

Lu Datou immediately slapped the table and stood up, and said to Chen Guanlou, "Zhang Wantong dares to find trouble for you, I will come forward for you, don't be afraid."

"Thank you Brother Datou. Squad Leader Zhang is a reasonable person, he shouldn't find trouble for me for no reason."

"The sky is not dark, why are you talking nonsense." Lu Datou looked puzzled.

Zhang Wantong saw Chen Guanlou and Lu Datou as soon as he entered the door, snorted coldly, and went to the second floor. His apprentices and grandchildren all followed to the second floor, and no one dared to look at Chen Guanlou more.

This scene fell into Lu Datou's eyes, clearly Zhang Wantong looked down on the two of them and didn't put the two of them in his eyes.

He was extremely angry, "Zhang Wantong, this bastard, is becoming more and more arrogant. Let's see how long he can be arrogant."

"Brother Datou, drink."

Lu Datou was still in anger, and had forgotten what they were chatting about before, only remembering that Zhang Wantong didn't give him face, and didn't even say hello when they met. Too much bullying!

Chen Guanlou felt that this was quite good, everyone well water does not violate river water, you walk your own path, I walk my own path, and do not interfere with each other.

As for the things that happened in the Heavenly Prison corridor that day, no one mentioned it, and everyone treated it as if it hadn't happened.

After drinking with Lu Datou, Chen Guanlou went home directly.

The gatekeeper of Liu Guanshi's mansion had been waiting for a long time, changing his previous coldness, and greeted him enthusiastically when he saw him, "Little Brother Chen can finally be counted as back."

"Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"Just a moment."

"What are you doing here?" Chen Guanlou stood in front of the door, without the idea of inviting people in to sit down.

The gatekeeper seemed not to see his attitude, "Oh, I was thirsty on the way, Little Brother Chen, why don't you invite me to drink a cup of tea."

Chen Guanlou:...

Don't hit the smiling person with your hand.

Chen Guanlou reflected that there is no need to be so stingy. There is no need to care about a gatekeeper, which makes him look small-minded.

He decisively opened the courtyard door and invited the gatekeeper to enter the house for tea. Exactly, he also needed a cup of tea to relieve the wine.

This time, he finally knew the gatekeeper's name, surname Liu, originally an orphan, without a proper name. After being picked up by Liu Guanshi, he followed Liu Guanshi's surname, big name Liu Xiao Chuan, Liu Xiao Chuan.

Chen Guanlou looked at the other party carefully, and could vaguely see the slippery side of mixing on the street. No wonder the face is thick.

"Being able to be valued by Liu Guanshi, Brother Liu Xiao Chuan is extraordinary." Chen Guanlou said casually.

Liu Xiao Chuan was humble repeatedly, only saying that he had good luck, and followed Liu Guanshi wholeheartedly in this life to repay the great kindness. Indirectly proving that he is Liu Guanshi's person, and today he was also ordered by Liu Guanshi to come over.

"I don't know what Liu Guanshi has to order?" ===== CHAPTER 29 =====
