Chapter 679: He Is Just a Dog
"Zheng Daochong is just a dog!"
Jiang said.
Chen Guanlou hmm-ed, expressing doubt. Fellow apprentices, listening to the tone, Jiang Yitian was extremely disdainful of Zheng Daochong, both despising and contemptuous, with absolutely no apprentice friendship. If there was a conflict, wouldn't a Ninth-Rank cultivation be able to deal with one surnamed Zheng? No conflict, just purely not liking him?
"Literal meaning!" Jiang Yitian laughed lightly, "Look at him now being a dog for the Emperor; isn't he quite happy? Little did he know, as early as when he was in the sect, he was a dog in front of the master, doing everything. I mean doing everything."
Chen Guanlou was stunned for a moment, then appeared to understand the other party's meaning, with a sudden realization. "You mean to say, between your master and Zheng Daochong..."
He stretched out two thumbs, poked them together and gestured.
Jiang Yitian didn't make a sound, but didn't deny it either.
Chen Guanlou immediately laughed awkwardly, "In this day and age, Jianghu people also play quite fancy."
After saying that, the two fell silent together, both needing a little time to digest it.
After a while, Chen Guanlou finished a cup of tea, his emotions calmed down quite a bit, "Why are you telling me this? Such things, logically speaking, the sect should have issued a gag order, not letting it spread, right."
"Zheng Daochong asked the sect for help, and the above sent me to take a look. So I came to take a look."
"Just to take a look?" Chen Guanlou was very curious.
The grievances and hatreds within the Profound Heaven Sect could write a book. The name would be "Today You Mock Me for Being a Dog, Tomorrow You Can't Climb High!"
It's a pity that Zheng Daochong hasn't reached the point where the Profound Heaven Sect can't climb high.
Jiang said, "The sect just let me take a look, no other requirements."
"You came to the capital, didn't go to see Zheng Daochong, but came directly to see me?" Chen Guanlou asked bluntly.
Jiang Yitian admitted generously; once he arrived in the capital, he went straight to the Heavenly Prison. No other meaning, just wanted to see what kind of sacred person could make Zheng Daochong furious; he is truly a god-man!
After seeing him, he wasn't disappointed and even wanted to give him a few pointers.
"The sect is the Jianghu, and the Jianghu has disputes; one must always divide you and me, divide the big and small kings. So, Brother Chen, you don't need to have any scruples; not everyone in the Profound Heaven Sect supports the one surnamed Zheng."
"Many thanks to Brother Jiang for informing me. Actually, even if you didn't come, I would have no scruples. I just didn't expect that the one surnamed Zheng's officialdom cards wouldn't work, so he thought of playing Jianghu cards. If even Jianghu cards don't work, what will he do next? With his temper and nature, if he doesn't achieve his goal, he will inevitably leave a heart demon. I am really looking forward to it!"
"Do you know his heart demon?" Jiang Yitian immediately became interested.
Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly, "You, as a senior apprentice, actually don't know. His heart demon is revenge, ten times, a hundred times the revenge. He has a paranoid personality; anyone who ridiculed him at the literary gathering back then, he wants to take revenge on. The first to bear the brunt is Seventh Master Wu. If Seventh Master Wu doesn't suffer torture for a day, doesn't live a life worse than death for a day, and doesn't develop according to his expectations, he won't have a happy face for a day."
"I don't know anything about his past. You say he has a paranoid personality; this is correct. Just, when he was in the Profound Heaven Sect, he was very good at enduring, and it didn't show clearly."
"When he was in the Profound Heaven Sect, he was a person who tucked his tail to be a human, naturally needing double the endurance. Once he entered the officialdom, except for those with higher official positions than him, why would he need to endure."
No need to endure, so he let himself go. Once he let himself go, the heart demon became even worse than in the past.
"Do you need me to help?"
"Many thanks to Brother Jiang. Will it be too much trouble for you? You are fellow apprentices; aren't you worried about being held accountable after returning to the sect?"
Jiang Yitian was indifferent, "If I don't say it, who would know. Since I know his heart demon, as a senior apprentice, I must persuade him to endure more. As an official, how can he act recklessly and ruin the sect's reputation." After saying that, he laughed to himself, his smile full of the meaning of watching a good show.
He really hated Zheng Daochong, without covering it up.
Chen Guanlou laughed, and the two raised their glasses, finding a topic because they hated the same person.
Zheng Daochong is a failure as a person; even his fellow apprentice doesn't look pleasing to him and wants to plot against him.
The two chatted very happily, inviting each other to compete another day, stopping at the point.
Chen Guanlou agreed happily.
Beheading every day, beheading until the people of the capital were almost numb.
Prince Chu took the opportunity to curse the Jian Shi Emperor for fratricide, being cruel, and being a tyrant. He called on other clan princes to raise flags and resist the Jian Shi Emperor's tyranny, otherwise, the next one to die would be them.
His call did indeed have some effect. Some clan vassal kings dared to submit memorials, persuading the Jian Shi Emperor to stop, saying the killing was too heavy and would hurt Heaven's harmony.
The Jian Shi Emperor was furious.
He sternly criticized the clan vassal kings who dared to submit memorials: stay honestly, whoever dares to ask about this matter will be punished together!
Further confirming the reputation of a tyrant.
The clan vassal kings were extremely afraid and extremely dissatisfied. Privately, some people secretly connected, and Prince Chu took the opportunity to incite everywhere, pulling more people to support himself. Even if they didn't raise flags, at least give some financial support, preferably weapon support!
On the other side, the rebel Guo Dachun didn't speak; he was happy to watch the joke, wishing for internal strife within the royal family. The more chaotic it was, the more people died, the more beneficial it was for him!
The Jian Shi Emperor killing his brothers, killing until blood flowed like a river, what a good propaganda material!
Killing even his own brothers like this, how could they, this group of rebels, have a way to live if they fell into the hands of the court. Instantly, the rebels' determination to continue the rebellion was strengthened.
Beheading continued.
Beheading and beheading, it was almost the Wu family's turn.
Zheng Daochong had no movement, estimated to be exhausted dealing with Jiang Yitian.
The last meal must be eaten.
Prince Jin, upon learning that it was almost the Wu family's turn to be beheaded, wept bitterly, "I am sorry to the Princess, sorry to the Wu family, sorry to Minister Wu! I have committed deep sins!"
"The Princess is being watched and living in the Prince's mansion with your concubines and children, temporarily without life danger. From the day she married you, she had psychological preparation. As for the Wu family, well, they are indeed quite unlucky."
"Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, can you let me meet Minister Wu? This parting is a final parting! I still have many words to say to Minister Wu, wanting to personally say sorry to him; I am incompetent and implicated everyone."
Chen Guanlou pondered for a moment, "It's not impossible! I can only give you half an hour."
"Many thanks to Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen!"
Chen Guanlou arranged for Chen Quan to escort Minister Wu over and lock him into Prince Jin's cell. He also instructed the prison guards to step back a few steps, letting the father-in-law and son-in-law chat well.
About to part forever, say some words, and say goodbye well.
Medical Official Mu, enduring discomfort, went down to the big prison, leaned in front of Chen Guanlou, and whispered, "Reporting to my master, Embroidered Uniform Guard Master Xiao is visiting, saying he has something to discuss with my master."
"Xiao Jincheng? What is he doing here."
"The student doesn't know. Does my master want to see him?"
"Of course I want to see him. You watch here for me; I will go meet him." ===== CHAPTER 680 =====
