Chapter 388: Don't even think about bewitching the crowd with evil words

~8 min read 1,516 words

"I am a dignified prison warden; can I not control a small squad leader like you? Believe it or not, I will remove you from your post right now."

Jiang Jiang Yucheng Lei was roaring, using this to vent the anger in his heart.

Shi Hong was as immovable as a mountain, just saying one sentence: "You can try."

Wu Bantou Wu, sitting next to him, secretly gave a thumbs up. Awesome! Shi Hong has turned over; he's so awesome, daring to directly clash with the prison warden! I didn't see that before!

Tsk tsk...

Today's play is good to watch.

"Fine, this official will grant your wish right now and remove you from your post. Get back and continue being a prison guard. Not convinced? If you're not convinced, then be a handyman."

Shi Hong kept a straight face, looking quite imposing, and just heard him say one sentence: "What you say doesn't count."

"I am the prison warden. In the Heavenly Prison, my words are the rules." Jiang Jiang Yucheng Lei was so angry he couldn't control himself.

This was the lead Chen Guanlou had taken, one by one rebelling against heaven.

Chen Guanlou, this disaster, should be rolled out of the Heavenly Prison and never be allowed to step in again.

Shi Hong gave a snort. "Prison Clerk Chen won't agree. I've done quite well these past few years; you have no reason to remove me from my post."

"Chen Guanlou is worth a fart! You don't respect your superior; even if this reason reached the Golden Throne, I would be the one in the right."

Shi Hong gave two "um-hums." "Anyway, what you say doesn't count; the people below won't recognize it."

"Rebelling against heaven! Wu Bantou Wu, you say it; are my words the rules, and do I have the qualifications to remove Shi Hong from his post?"

Wu Bantou Wu:...

Wu Bantou Wu was in a battle between heaven and man, suddenly inspired. "My lord, why bother with a blockhead like Shi Hong? He is a recognized stubborn person; there's something wrong with his head here since he was small, and he doesn't know how to turn." Wu Bantou Wu said, pointing at his head.

Then, he said again: "My lord, you should drink a cup of tea first to calm your anger. Actually, today's matter isn't about who is right and who is wrong; it's mainly because a difference in thinking has appeared. My lord, you rarely go down to the Heavenly Prison; you don't know how arrogant those imprisoned officials are, openly killing my prison guards. Today they dare to kill prison guards, tomorrow they will dare to kill prison clerks, and the day after they will dare to kill prison wardens.

My lord, do you know that before Master Fan, it was actually Jiang Jiang Yucheng Jiang? Jiang Jiang Yucheng Jiang was learned and had backers, and he did exceptionally well in the position of prison warden, and everyone was very convinced by him, but one day, he suddenly died, died of drowning while drunk. And he wasn't the only person in the Heavenly Prison who died of drowning while drunk.

If my lord doesn't believe it, you can flip through the case files; they are all recorded. Although it was said above that Jiang Jiang Yucheng Jiang died of an accident, we all know clearly that Jiang Jiang Yucheng Jiang was silenced. It was so miserable!"

Jiang Jiang Yucheng Lei froze, then his anger soared to the sky, roaring at Wu Bantou Wu: "Who are you trying to scare? This official wasn't scared into growing up!"

"Unjust! My lord, this little one is being wronged! This little one has absolutely no intention of frightening you. This little one only wants to tell you that the Heavenly Prison is not a safe place. Especially that bunch of convicted officials; even after entering the Heavenly Prison, they remain incredibly arrogant, killing people on a whim and treating us prison guards like cattle, horses, or ants. Even the Jiang Jiang Yucheng is no exception. This little one just wants to tell you, please do not sympathize with that bunch of convicted officials; they are all reaping what they sowed. If we are weak and back down today, they will only harm people more viciously tomorrow. Our lives are cheap; if we die, we die. You, my lord, are different. You are already a court official with a boundless future. If you were to die at the hands of that bunch of convicted officials, how stifling and unjust would that be!"

Wu Bantou Wu performed well, tears falling as soon as he wanted them to. The other three squad leaders looked at his performance with expressionless faces, admiring him endlessly in their hearts.

This ability to cry as soon as one wanted to was something ordinary people couldn't play with; they really couldn't play with it.

Jiang Jiang Yucheng Lei seemed to be scared, his face changing again and again, but his mouth remained very hard. The hardest thing on his whole body was his mouth.

He raged: "This official hasn't provoked those imprisoned officials; what reason do those imprisoned officials have to deal with me? Stop talking nonsense."

"My lord, you don't know. Those imprisoned officials will do anything for their own interests. What if that group of imprisoned officials goes crazy and wants to kill the chicken to warn the monkey? From top to bottom in the Heavenly Prison, who is more suitable and more deterrent than my lord?"

Wu Bantou Wu said, leaning closer to Jiang Jiang Yucheng Lei. "For us, it's that group of monkeys; my lord, you are that chicken."

"Nonsense! How did this official become a chicken?" Jiang Jiang Yucheng Lei's face changed unpredictably, his eyes very scary.

"However, for the iron-clad, the position of prison warden is the chicken. The small one sincerely hopes that my lord can be safe, get promoted, and get rich, and never have an accident. However, those imprisoned officials have become increasingly arrogant this year. Fortunately, Prison Clerk Chen took decisive action to suppress their arrogant flames. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."

"My lord, think about it, Prison Clerk Chen has the Hou Fu as a backer, and it is said that he is increasingly valued. Those imprisoned officials look at people and use chopsticks; they certainly wouldn't dare to do anything to Prison Clerk Chen. Then my lord, you will enter the sight of those imprisoned officials and become a target. Those imprisoned officials have money, people, and connections; killing a prison warden is as easy as reaching out for something. My lord, you must be vigilant and never follow the path of Jiang Jiang Yucheng Jiang!"

"Stop scaring this official." Jiang Jiang Yucheng Lei pressed down his chaotic mood. "Wu Bantou Wu, you are alarmist; what exactly do you want to do?"

"My lord, the small one is wronged!" Wu Bantou Wu started shouting again, his eyes darting around while he called out that he was wronged. "My lord, if you don't believe it, ask the three of them; did I say anything wrong? Was Jiang Jiang Yucheng Jiang's death caused by those imprisoned officials?"

"It must have been done by those imprisoned officials. The prisoners in the Yi-block and Bing-block prisons have no reason to kill Jiang Jiang Yucheng Jiang. Only the prisoners in the Jia-block prison would be so insane."

"Prison Clerk Chen cleaning up this bunch of imprisoned officials is to deter them. If the time isn't up, order must absolutely not be restored. Otherwise, if they look down on us, everyone's life will be hard to protect in the future."

"We prison guards have low status; if we die, we die. If my lord dies, what a pity! My lord has a boundless future and certainly wouldn't be willing to die in the Heavenly Prison."

"My lord, things affect the whole body with one pull; Prison Clerk Chen's decision was made after careful consideration, not just to show off his might."

"Ever since the deposed Crown Prince, the atmosphere in the Jia-block prison has been a bit wrong. It's still Prison Clerk Chen who was decisive, ordering the closure of the Jia-block prison in time to give that bunch of imprisoned officials a profound lesson."

"My lord, those imprisoned officials are crazy. If you don't believe it, go down and see for yourself."

Several people were like hundreds of ducks, buzzing in Jiang Jiang Yucheng Lei's ears.

Whether the imprisoned officials in the Heavenly Prison were crazy or not, he didn't know. Anyway, he was about to go crazy. He was about to be driven crazy by these few squad leaders.

The people Chen Guanlou brought out were indeed all sharp-tongued. Even the stupidest Shi Hong could rattle off a whole string of words.

He gritted his teeth. "All of you shut up! No one will harm this official; don't even think about bewitching the crowd with evil words. This official won't fall for your tricks." ===== CHAPTER 389 =====
