Chapter 793: Just a lick-dog
Xiao Jin laughed complacently.
A tangled expression of wanting to show off but wanting to restrain, wanting to appear light and breezy, but urgently wanting people to know that he had gotten to know a noble.
"Say it! What's so embarrassing. Getting to know a noble is a good thing. How many people want to get to know a noble but don't have the chance. Say which mansion it is, do I know it?"
"The small one doesn't know if the Lord knows it, but definitely heard that person's name."
"Oh! Let this official guess, could it be your own family, Master Xiao Changsheng's mansion?"
Ah?
Xiao Jin's face was surprised and inexplicable, and his expression was very shocked, "The Lord already knew?"
"How can it be! Just now, the soul was blessed, and I guessed it casually, didn't expect to guess it right. No way, it's really Xiao Changsheng? You kid actually got to know Xiao Changsheng. Hurry up and tell me, how did you get to know him, he is a pet official in front of His Majesty, and can also fold his festival to hand over? It seems that the rumors outside are not true, Xiao Changsheng is not as unbearable as the rumors say."
Chen Guanlou was completely in the appearance of a gossip lover, urging Xiao Jin to reveal more truth.
Xiao Jin wanted to show off, but had to appear deep and implicit, vaguely saying: "Master Xiao is really different from the rumors outside. I got to know him, it was also a coincidence, we are both surnamed Xiao, our ancestors actually had origins. I asked the elders in the clan to know."
Chen Guanlou was very surprised, "You formed a clan?"
"No no no, didn't reach that point. Ancestors had origins, because our ancestors actually came from the same place. Just different ancestors."
"Then you should form a clan even more."
"How can that be embarrassing. I am just a prison guard, how dare I climb high." Xiao Jin waved his hands repeatedly. Saying it was embarrassing in his mouth, but his eyes revealed longing.
Chen Guanlou bewitched: "You can beg him to change you to an errand, an errand with more future. Now you also read and write, although you can't compare to a proper scholar, general official document writing and reading are no problem. You can completely find a light errand in the government office to do. Status and status are improved, and in the future, forming a clan will be a matter of course."
Xiao Jin was obviously moved, but said: "Lord, don't worry, the small one only wants to work in the Heavenly Prison, and follow the Lord forever."
"Don't don't don't! If you have a better future, this official will only be happy for you, how can I stop you from making progress. Being a prison guard, except for a little money, has no future, and the status is low. Outside, everyone says that being a prison guard is a cheap industry, and this statement also has a few points of truth. Since you got to know a noble, if the noble is willing to promote you, you must seize the opportunity, don't delay your future by hesitating."
"Does the Lord really support me?"
"Naturally. You few, were brought out by this official personally. I only hope that you all have a bright future, proving that this official has vision. Haha..."
He laughed heartily, and Xiao Jin followed with a laugh, the atmosphere was happy and harmonious.
Didn't mention a word about the Heavenly Prison, let alone the death of Ma Man and the others, chatting about Xiao Changsheng the whole time, and chatting about Imperial Concubine Xiao in the palace by the way.
A chat, nothing else happened, drank tea until half full.
Afterwards, Mu Yiguan Mu asked him, "How is it, did you chat out anything?"
"Lick-dog!" Chen Guanlou gave two words of evaluation, "Xiao Changsheng gave him a smile, and he licked it himself. Completely forgot how he envied and insulted the other party at the beginning. As for why Xiao Changsheng recognized Xiao Jin as his own family, it hasn't been figured out yet. However, Xiao Jin shouldn't be the person who poisoned, but, the matter has something to do with him."
"How are you sure?"
"Intuition!"
Chen Guanlou said concisely, and Mu Yiguan Mu was dumbfounded.
"You rely on intuition to solve cases, you are really... I see, since you can't find it, don't check it. Such a big case, killing the Ministry of Works criminal officials in one breath, it is very obvious that the background is very big."
"I know their background. I just want to find the tail of this line. Want to find the ghost hidden inside the Jia-sized prison!"
It's really angry, killing people under his eyelids.
"Who is their background?"
"Who else can it be, nothing more than those heads of the Ministry of Works, or those gods and ghosts of the Imperial Observatory, or those moths of the Ministry of Justice who take people's money to eliminate disasters." Chen Guanlou said casually.
Mu Yiguan Mu's face changed, "The Ministry of Justice doesn't pursue this case, obviously it got orders, someone issued a gag order to the Ministry of Justice. Ministry of Works and Imperial Observatory, who has the ability to issue a gag order to the Ministry of Justice? I'm afraid it's people in the palace."
Chen Guanlou's eyebrows slightly picked, he suddenly remembered, some time ago, the Chief Steward said he wanted to share worries for Sun Daoning, and hook up with each other. Could it be from that time...
"Wait, there is one more person, I haven't investigated yet."
"Who?" Mu Yiguan Mu was curious. There was actually a fish that slipped through the net.
"My clan brother Chen Guanxu."
"You suspect him?"
"I suspect everyone. I don't think anyone looks like a good person." Chen Guanlou kept a straight face.
Checking Chen Guanxu, finding Chen Quan is useless.
Fortunately, he has been in the Heavenly Prison for so many years, not working for nothing, and has some friendship with the group of grandsons in the logistics. Besides, there is Mu Yiguan Mu by his side.
Mu Yiguan Mu is more familiar with the logistics people, and the relationship is very old.
After all, medicine expenses are a big head, money is a lot. This thing is not easy to check accounts. The quantity of prisoners' food is fixed, the quantity of medicine is not fixed.
Medicine is more or less, good or bad, all depends on the mouth of that group of grandsons. Mu Yiguan Mu is a good old man, doesn't offend anyone, naturally closes one eye and opens one eye, absolutely won't expose the other party.
"Old Mu, my clan brother, please."
"Why don't you ask directly?" Mu Yiguan Mu was not very willing. Things that offend people, he didn't want to do.
"Things without evidence, how do I ask? Do I still want to be a person. I am surnamed Chen, Chen of the Chen clan. As long as I don't come forward, I am still his clan brother. If I come forward, I must have solid evidence, only then is it convenient for me to turn my face."
Mu Yiguan Mu had a long story, "You really suspect him? This doesn't make sense. He is a logistics, never goes down to the big prison, how is it possible?"
"Why is it impossible." Chen Guanlou sneered, "Poisoning, it doesn't mean you have to do it yourself. Of course, I am just guessing, maybe I guessed wrong."
"Definitely guessed wrong!" Mu Yiguan Mu was certain. Although he was unhappy in his heart, he still agreed to Chen Guanlou's request, helping to find someone to check, and asking sideways.
Afterwards, Chen Guanlou called Lu Datou again, letting the other party use his connections to inquire about Chen Guanxu's whereabouts in the past few days. Especially the whereabouts before Ma Man and the others died.
"This matter must be kept secret, don't tell a second person. The people you find must have tight mouths and flexible brains, don't shout everything out. I am checking my own brother, if this matter spreads out, I won't find anyone, I will specifically find you, specifically clean you up."
Lu Datou patted his chest to guarantee that he would handle the matter properly and check Chen Guanxu's whereabouts in the past few days clearly. ===== CHAPTER 794 =====
