Chapter 441: Famous in one battle

Chen Guanlou became famous in one battle!

The clansmen were in an uproar.

By the time the sky was slightly bright, the news had spread almost throughout the entire clan. Many people, regardless of their physical discomfort, regardless of the bloody scene, walked out of their homes one after another to witness the miracle.

The miracle was those corpses.

The martial artists who invaded the Marquis's Mansion's territory last night.

Basically, they were all solved with one knife each.

Those who knew the business saw the wounds on the corpses and clicked their tongues in wonder. This knife technique, even if not a martial artist, cannot be underestimated.

Never expected that, silently, Chen Guanlou had practiced his knife technique to such a level, overcoming martial artists.

However, can one counter-kill martial artists with just knife technique?

Everyone had doubts in their hearts.

As the central figure, no matter who came to ask, Chen Guanlou had only one sentence: Heaven protects him, he is Heaven's pet, so he can counter-kill martial artists. Everyone thought he was insincere, turned their faces and left, scolding him for not having a single truthful word in his mouth.

What could Chen Guanlou do? He was telling the truth, although he decorated it, but no one believed it.

At this time, another piece of news came.

Why was the Marquis's Mansion's guard resources so tight? Because the Marquis's Mansion's guards were all sent out. Last night, Jiang Tu sent people to the Marquis's Mansion's territory to act wildly and kill, and similarly, the Marquis's Mansion also sent people to kill Jiang Tu's men.

Both sides killed each other.

Because there was an accident like Chen Guanlou, the outcome was very clear; Jiang Tu was completely defeated.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Jiang Mansion.

The sound of heavy objects hitting the ground, every time it rang, the servants would tremble.

"Waste, all waste! Can't handle a small matter well."

"My lord, it's not that we are incompetent, but there is a person named Chen Guanlou in the Chen family who is very sharp. The people we sent to the Marquis's Mansion were basically slaughtered by him."

"What kind of thing is Chen Guanlou. Is he a martial artist?"

"Although he is not a martial artist, his knife technique is superb..."

"Bullshit. I have never heard that someone can slaughter martial artists just by relying on martial arts techniques. You are clearly looking for excuses."

"My lord, the small one dares not lie. It is true; the people sent last night were basically killed by that person named Chen Guanlou. If my lord doesn't believe it, you can call people to ask. The small one dares not have the slightest concealment."

Jiang Tu kicked the lackey over, so angry that his expression twisted.

"A mere, you just said that Chen Guanlou works in the Heavenly Prison, which is to say a mere Heavenly Prison prison clerk, actually able to block the attack of dozens of martial artists; it is simply a great joke in the world."

The lackey didn't dare to make a sound.

He also felt it was unlikely.

Not one or two, but ten or twenty; those are martial artists. The worst is also a first-rank martial artist, and most are second or third rank.

Sending so many martial artists at once, basically the family foundation was emptied. Actually, they were all killed, and only a few returned.

"My lord, what should we do next?"

"What to do, naturally continue!"

"Still want to continue?!" The lackeys felt heavy, continuing meant filling it with human lives.

"I said, from the day you relied on my power, you should have been prepared to sacrifice your lives. Now you want to quit, it's too late. Either continue, or I will give you a painful one, choose for yourselves."

"My lord is joking. Our loyalty to my lord is witnessed by heaven and earth. If there is betrayal, let us be struck by heaven and earth and die a bad death."

Jiang Tu laughed, seeming very satisfied with the lackeys' performance. "With this awareness, it is not in vain for my care for so many years. Recruit martial artists with heavy money, continue to kill. I haven't shouted stop, no one is allowed to stop."

"That Chen Guanlou..."

"A mere Heavenly Prison prison clerk, I will solve it myself."

He didn't believe that sending two fifth or sixth-rank martial artists couldn't solve a mere prison clerk.

As for whether the dead martial artists were killed by Chen Guanlou, it didn't matter. What mattered was to strike the Marquis's Mansion in an all-round way, strike the Chen clan, and expand the battle results as much as possible, so that the old Emperor in the palace would be satisfied.

Imperial Palace!

The old Emperor was meditating, with Daoists accompanying him on the side.

The old Emperor did not hold court, did not hold morning meetings, but had time to do morning lessons. It can be seen how stubborn his determination to seek immortality is.

Court officials had already submitted dozens or hundreds of memorials, and the Political Affairs Hall picked and chose, selecting more than a dozen, and sent them to Taiji Palace for the old Emperor to read.

Qiu Defu flipped through these memorials, doing the final screening for the old Emperor, and the content inside made him frown deeply.

They were all impeaching Jiang Tu for lawlessness, and a very small number impeached the Marquis's Mansion's Heir Chen Guanfu.

These two families were making a scene, and the entire capital was following along, not a single day was peaceful.

I don't know what kind of heart the old Emperor had, but he had to make such a scene at the end of the year, and everyone followed along, worried, day and night uneasy.

After the old Emperor finished his morning lessons, the Daoists exited the main hall, and Qiu Defu stepped forward slowly. "Does Your Majesty want to rest for a while? The Imperial Kitchen prepared nourishing soup; I will have someone serve it."

"Um!"

The old Emperor stood up, closed his eyes, and was served by the palace people to change clothes, apply face, and wash hands.

Having received the response, Qiu Defu hurriedly waved his hand, letting his disciples and grandchildren bring the nourishing soup that had been kept warm.

The old Emperor's diet, he absolutely didn't dare to hand over to ordinary palace people. As long as he was on duty, he only let his disciples and grandchildren handle the diet, ensuring safety.

If he wasn't on duty, he naturally wouldn't ask, and wouldn't let his disciples and grandchildren touch it. Just in case, if something went wrong, he would be implicated in a long string when investigating responsibility.

"Is there anything important today?" The old Emperor finished changing clothes, sat on the dragon chair, and asked casually.

Qiu Defu hurriedly presented the selected memorials. "These are all sent from the Political Affairs Hall; basically, they are all impeaching Lord Jiang Tu and the Marquis's Mansion's Heir Chen Guanfu."

The old Emperor raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, flipped through the one placed on top, which happened to be the memorial impeaching Chen Guanfu.

This one was specifically placed on top by Qiu Defu.

The old Emperor finished reading it quickly, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and his mood seemed very pleasant.

Then he picked up the second one, impeaching Jiang Tu; the wording was so sharp, it could be called full firepower. It was just short of asking about Jiang Tu's eighteenth generation of ancestors.

Picking up the third one, it was still impeaching Jiang Tu; one could see from the text how angry the official who wrote this memorial was. He wished he could skin Jiang Tu alive.

The fourth one, impeaching Chen Guanfu, the wording was much more elegant.

The fifth one, impeaching Jiang Tu, the content was like a hooligan scolding on the street, as dirty as it could be.

The old Emperor had no intention to continue reading.

He could see that the officials impeaching Jiang Tu were truly not caring about decorum at all, scolding however they felt happy. If this wasn't a memorial, they would definitely scold the mother directly. Impeaching Chen Guanfu reflected the cultivation of the officials, the elegance cultivated by reading for many years.

Hmph!

The old Emperor was clearly unhappy. "What is the specific situation?"

Qiu Defu hesitated, deliberating and saying: "The small one received news early this morning that it is said that Lord Jiang's side seems to have suffered heavy losses. The Marquis's Mansion also died many people and lost a lot of property. For the specific situation, I have to ask the Embroidered Uniform Guard." ===== CHAPTER 442 =====
