Chapter 468

Living in a closed environment, the most important point is to maintain emotional stability.

As long as emotions are stable, everything is step-by-step, orderly, and things won't be too bad. No need to worry about man-made destruction of the surrounding environment, causing irreversible consequences.

Originally, some people in the Heavenly Prison still held a fluke mentality, thinking that the court could still stabilize, the old Emperor must be fine, and he would soon be able to come forward to preside over the overall situation and stabilize the situation.

However, when the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone on the earth, the city gates opened, and government soldiers entered the capital, completely extinguishing everyone's fluke mentality.

The Divine Weapon Camp and the Divine Sharp Camp entered the capital one after another; last year, it was these two groups of government soldiers who caused chaos in the capital.

Immediately afterward, all the government soldiers of the Divine Machine Camp also entered the capital.

For a time, the capital became the territory of the three major camps.

Between the three major camps, as soon as they met, fighting occurred.

Now there was no other way, the Heavenly Prison unified its opinion, sealed the main gate, and arranged for more people to patrol the watchtowers. The prisoners in the prison were all changed to one meal a day, and there was no oil or water. In the past, the prisoners in the A-grade prison, not to mention every day, could always see oil and water once every two or three days.

After all, they paid so much money, so life should be a little better.

Chen Guanlou went down to the prison to appease the prisoners' emotions. He didn't want any situation like a prisoner riot to occur.

Xie Changling had a face full of beard, appearing extremely vicissitudinous and down-and-out. For a period of time, he had not washed or spent money to go out for air.

Seeing Chen Guanlou, he said indifferently, "I want to go out!"

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows, "It's useless for you to tell me this. I am not a Ministry of Justice official, just a prison clerk, only responsible for guarding you."

"Help me send a letter to the Ministry of Justice, and there will definitely be a heavy reward afterward."

Don't talk to him about heavy rewards.

He hadn't received the Hou Fu's heavy reward yet.

He shook his head and told the other party, "The Heavenly Prison is sealed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. Now no one can send a letter for you."

"What is the situation outside now?" Xie Changling was not anxious, his expression still indifferent. It seemed that he had been prepared for his own situation and the current situation of the Heavenly Prison.

"The three major camps entered the capital one after another, and several fights have already occurred. Who won and who lost, I don't know. The situation in the palace, there has been no news so far. If you want to ask me if His Majesty is alive or dead, sorry, I don't know anything."

"No news from the Hou Fu side either?"

"No. It is said that the Hou Fu Young Master went into the palace, and then there was no news."

Xie Changling heard this and suddenly frowned, "I want to go out, I must go out. Others can't get out of the Heavenly Prison, but I know Prison Clerk Chen, you definitely have a way to get out of the Heavenly Prison. Trouble you to go to the Ministry of Justice, find an official surnamed Ou, and just say it was me who asked you to find him. You don't need to worry about the subsequent things. After I go out, I will definitely have a heavy reward."

Chen Guanlou shook his head and refused.

Without seeing real gold and silver, he couldn't help. Especially under the premise that the situation outside is unclear and fighting is happening everywhere.

He strictly followed the saying that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

Xie Changling gritted his teeth, "How about this, you go to the Xie Fu, take my handwritten letter to collect money. After taking the money, you help me take a trip to the Ministry of Justice, how about that?"

Chen Guanlou still refused.

"What will it take for you to help me?"

"Lord Xie is so anxious to go out? Could it be that you know who blew up the sacrificial altar? What can you do as a prisoner official going out?"

"Don't worry about what I can do; as long as you are willing to help me, I will accept this favor. In the future, I will return this favor to you, how about that?"

"Haven't you heard, I never eat painted cakes. How about this, how much money do you plan to pay to ask me to help deliver the letter?"

"One thousand taels, how about that?"

This price, if placed in normal times, absolutely belongs to the behavior of destroying the market, too high. There is a suspicion of driving up prices.

But now, a mere one thousand taels is inevitably too low.

"Two thousand taels! You take my handwritten letter to the Xie Fu, and you can get this money. I guarantee it."

Chen Guanlou still didn't agree, "You officials, calculating this today and calculating that tomorrow, how come you didn't calculate it on yourselves."

"Three thousand taels, plus a famous painting. This is the highest price I can offer. Prison Clerk Chen, is it a deal or not, give me a word."

"Two thousand taels plus a painting, and you have to owe me two favors."

"Deal!"

Xie Changling felt relieved; he wanted to go out, he wanted to go out as soon as possible. If it's late, he's afraid it will be too late.

Chen Guanlou didn't ask what the other party was going to do; he had always not asked about these things.

Taking Xie Changling's handwritten letter and the letter, without needing to alarm anyone, without needing to go through the main gate, and even less needing to climb over the wall, he could completely leave the Heavenly Prison silently.

First, he headed to the Xie Fu.

The people at the Xie Fu seemed to have been prepared; seeing the handwritten letter, they didn't ask anything and very readily gave the money and the painting.

Afterward, he went to the Ministry of Justice again, and sure enough, he saw an official surnamed Ou; after handing Xie Changling's letter to the other party, he left.

He gave the painting to Master Du, asking Master Du to appreciate it. The Heavenly Prison is not convenient for storing antique calligraphy and paintings, as they are easily damaged.

Seeing him, Master Du appeared very pleasantly surprised, "Why did you suddenly come back? I thought you wouldn't come out of the Heavenly Prison until the matter was over."

"Came out to walk around casually. There are too many people imprisoned in that place, the Heavenly Prison, and the smell is a bit strong."

"That's also true. I'll tell you secretly, the Hou Fu has sealed its gates. The Head Steward gave the order personally."

"What does that mean?"

"Except for the side gate for people to enter and exit, all other gates are sealed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. The Head Steward also transferred a batch of guards; it is said that they are all martial artists, responsible for protecting the safety of the Hou Fu."

"Is the situation that serious?" Chen Guanlou frowned slightly.

"Who says it isn't." Master Du looked worried.

"Have you heard any news about the Young Master?"

"Don't know!" Master Du was worried to death, "I heard that the Young Master never came back after going to the sacrificial altar. Only know that the Young Master is safe, nothing else is clear. Have you seen the Young Master?"

"I would like to see the Young Master, but unfortunately, there is no opportunity." Chen Guanlou pondered, could it be that Chen Guanfu was trapped in the palace?

What is the situation in the palace now?

He looked toward the direction of the Imperial Palace.

If it weren't for the fear of the Grandmaster guarding the palace, he really wanted to sneak in and take a look. He hadn't properly seen what the Imperial Palace looked like.

"Do other nobles and families have any movement?"

"I don't know! Right now it's messy everywhere, and the Hou Fu side has given orders that one must not go out unless necessary. Currently, the Hou Fu area is still considered safe. The government soldiers fighting all avoid the Hou Fu."

"After all, the Great Marquis has a fierce reputation outside. Even if they don't give the Young Master face, at least they have to give the Great Marquis face. Otherwise, if the Great Marquis brings the field army that has been killing thieves in the north for several years back to the capital, all the three major camps will have their heads cut off."

An army that fights in the field every day against an army that is locked in a military camp every day, who wins and who loses is clear at a glance.

It is no exaggeration to say that the army in the hands of the Great Marquis is the strongest combat power in the Great Gan Dynasty. This point is beyond doubt.

From this, it can be seen that the safety of the Young Master Chen Guanfu is definitely not a problem. The remaining problem is the tearing of interests.

As for the truth, is it important?

Not important at all!
