Chapter 732: This Time Really Jumping into the Fire Pit

Sun Daoning was anxious in his heart, but didn't show it on his face, and said with a light cough: "Perhaps there is a reliable clue in the palace, pointing to the Marquis of Nanshan Mansion."

The Great Butler only made this guess.

Otherwise, it cannot be explained why the Emperor suddenly wanted to target the Marquis of Nanshan Mansion.

"Does the Marquis of Nanshan Mansion know that they are about to be unlucky?"

"Knowing so what, can't escape!" The Great Butler's words were both cold and cruel!

Nobles are good!

However, every person in the noble family, regardless of gender, old or young, is registered in the book. Can't escape! Replacing peaches with plums is even more impossible.

Wu Dashou, as a prime minister, had students and officials all over the world, but he was powerless and had no way to replace peaches with plums, let alone the mere Marquis of Nanshan Mansion, whose whole family had been stared at by the royal family for three hundred years.

"What does the Great Butler want me to do?" Chen Guanlou asked suddenly.

The Great Butler was obviously stunned. "You mean, the palace let the Ministry of Justice handle this case, instead of the Embroidered Uniform Guard?"

"Exactly."

"Very interesting! Not letting the Embroidered Uniform Guard handle it, could it be to disperse the source of clues?"

The Great Butler frowned, he, a know-it-all who knew the past, couldn't figure it out.

Chen Guanlou, who had been in contact with the secrets of the past, couldn't figure it out even more. There was still a lack of puzzles here, a lack of enough clues to solve the mystery. The palace must have made a new discovery to move the Marquis of Nanshan Mansion.

What kind of discovery could it be, that they didn't trust the Embroidered Uniform Guard, but let the Ministry of Justice handle it.

The Ministry of Justice is far inferior to the Embroidered Uniform Guard in keeping secrets.

On this point, Chen Guanlou himself must admit it.

Sieve!

The Ministry of Justice is a sieve from top to bottom. Unlike the neighboring Embroidered Uniform Guard, which is an iron plate and airtight.

"If you can save your life, save your life! If you can't save your life, at least let them go decently." The Great Butler sighed.

The Marquis of Nanshan Mansion being liquidated belongs to the arrow on the string and must be sent. The nobles are connected, but after all, they are separated by a layer from the Marquis of Nanshan Mansion.

The Marquis of Nanshan Mansion surrendered as a noble of the Great Yu Dynasty, such as the Marquis of Pingjiang Mansion, whose ancestors fought for wealth with a knife and a gun. Both are nobles, belonging to two camps, destined to never pee in a urinal from beginning to end.

"Whether I can save my life, I can't guarantee. This matter depends on the meaning of the palace. However, I can guarantee that they will go more decently. Does the Great Butler have any instructions?"

The Great Butler really had thoughts. "The Ministry of Justice handles the case, you think of a way, can you participate in the work of copying the house. Pay more attention to some calligraphy and paintings. Anything with text and inheritance, pay more attention. It's not letting you embezzle, you can copy the calligraphy and paintings inside."

"Just copying, it definitely won't work. You can think of it, the ancients thought of it long ago, and took measures. Maybe the calligraphy and paintings treasured by the Marquis of Nanshan Mansion have long been uncovered by one layer, two layers, three layers, looking for whether there is a hidden painting within a painting, or a word within a word."

Chen Guanlou denied the Great Butler's suggestion.

There are many talents around the Emperor.

Back then, around Taizu, there was a large group of genius players of the time. What ordinary people can think of, and what they can't think of, that group of people had already thought of and started to implement.

Instead of looking forward to whether something useful can be excavated from the Marquis of Nanshan Mansion, it is better to use the old method, find a grave robber, dig one by one, and don't believe that you can't dig out clues.

The Great Butler heard this, and could only sigh. "It seems that the Marquis of Nanshan Mansion is destined to suffer an innocent disaster this time."

Chen Guanlou packaged the news he got and passed it on to Sun Daoning.

Learning that the Prince of Cheng was not born to the previous Prince of Cheng's consort, he felt numb all over.

"The Prince of Cheng is just recorded under the name of the princess consort! Who the birth mother is, I didn't inquire."

"In this way, the Marquis of Nanshan Mansion, strictly speaking, is not the mother's clan of the Prince of Cheng. Therefore, the saying that the Prince of Cheng rebelled and transferred anger to the mother's clan can be scrapped. Also, the news I inquired about, very certainly said that the Marquis of Nanshan Mansion has no treasure. If there really was one, it would have been excavated eight hundred years ago, and it wouldn't wait for your generation. Old Sun, you really might jump into the fire pit this time! Keep a long heart! A dignified Heavenly Official of the Ministry of Justice, still being calculated by others, taking this hot potato, look at what you have done."

Chen Guanlou was very disgusted.

Old Sun's experience in court struggle is still insufficient!

People who do legal work have quite a few hearts, but they are all quite practical. They can see through legal loopholes at a glance and know how to drill legal loopholes. But playing with conspiracy and tricks, playing with court struggle, they are really not the opponents of that group of people in the court.

Since ancient times, I haven't seen a few Ministers of Justice play court struggle, play with flowers, and finally become the big winner. On the contrary, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Revenue, and the Ministry of Personnel, the bosses of these yamen, often have amazing moves, which is staggering. Turning to think, it is also reasonable. Without the constraints of the law, the brain is more unconstrained, and dare to think and dare to do!

With an extra layer of legal constraints, although there are more hearts, it also limits imagination and execution.

Many inevitabilities and accidents in history require an amazing move that is unconstrained, not the rules and regulations within the legal framework.

Sun Daoning was also full of bitterness.

"However, His Majesty explained, it is purely to get money. If the Marquis of Nanshan Mansion has no treasure, where can this official get money?"

"So, this is a fire pit!" Chen Guanlou said firmly, and directly drew a conclusion. "Old Sun, now it can be determined that you have been calculated by others. I ask you, what is the situation on the side of the Marquis of Nanshan Mansion now?"

"The people of the Six Fan Sect have all been sent out, strictly guarding. Just waiting for this official to ask for the imperial edict, and then go in to catch people!"

"With the sealing of the yamen for the New Year imminent, when will the Emperor's decree come down? Before the New Year or after? If before, does he not want everyone in the Ministry of Justice to have a New Year? If after, it proves the matter is not urgent and not that serious. I fear the Emperor is still hesitant in his heart, unable to make up his mind for the time being. Let me ask you, who has been serving most closely by the Emperor's side lately?"

"Besides those few eunuchs, who else can it be, isn't it Xiao Changsheng. Recently there is another actor named Chang Gui."

"Actor?" Chen Guanlou was stunned, the Emperor played really flower. The charming concubines in the harem could no longer satisfy the Emperor's increasingly growing various perverted hobbies, and had already opened up new ideas, opened another window, and played with actors.

The actors in this era are all men, men, men!

Important things must be said three times!

Who was it back then who kept saying that the Emperor was sincere, kind, good at accepting advice, and gentle and polite?

Who was it?!

"The Emperor plays so flower, you ministers didn't persuade one or two?"

Sun Daoning glanced at the other party, looking very disgusted. "Your mind is too filthy. His Majesty just let Chang Gui accompany him left and right, singing two plays when he is free. There is no filthy thing you imagine happening."

"Sure? I remember who said that Xiao Changsheng has a tender and handsome face and is pure. Old Sun, tell the truth, if Xiao Changsheng didn't have a good face, could the Emperor trust him? Look at me again, I also look very handsome, why doesn't the Emperor let me accompany him left and right? And who, Xu Lao San Xu Lin, is even more of a romantic and handsome face, why doesn't the Emperor covet him, but only likes Xiao Changsheng's pure face? Dare to love, the Emperor wants to play pure! Compared to pure, indeed no one can act more sincere than an actor!" ===== CHAPTER 733 =====
