Chapter 795: Hard to be confused

~8 min read 1,419 words

"Got it!"

Lu Datou worked hard and finally flipped to the record, "The two drank together at the restaurant on the night of the 13th. Because only the whereabouts of the previous ten days were checked, there is only one record."

Chen Guanlou patted the table and said excitedly: "I knew these two had private dealings."

"This can't prove that the two of them have problems. Jiang Jiang Yucheng, if the old man says, this matter should be forgotten. Things have reached this point, lifting the lid is not good for anyone. It's better to be a confused person."

Mu Yiguan Mu has been in the Heavenly Prison for many years, and the thing he is best at is being a confused person and doing smart things.

As a medical officer, he doesn't know how many secrets he has seen and heard. Being able to live safely until today is all because of the four words "hard to be confused".

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows, "Who said I want to lift the lid! You old man misunderstood me. Lu Datou, you have merit this time, go to Qian Fugui to draw silver."

"Thank you brother! Brother, you are really good. Next time there is a similar errand, call me again, I guarantee to complete it!"

Lu Datou left happily.

Chen Guanlou didn't find Xiao Jin and Chen Guanxu to talk, nor did he find trouble for the two, treating it as if nothing had happened.

He ran directly to the Ministry of Justice to find Sun Daoning.

Sun Daoning bypassed him when he saw him. Seeing that he couldn't hide, he said bluntly: "This official is busy with government affairs, if you have something to say, say it, if not, roll away."

"Those criminal officials in the Ministry of Works..."

"What criminal officials? The case has been closed, what other problems are there."

"Seven or eight people died in one night, old Sun, what are you pretending to be stupid for."

"Who is pretending to be stupid, don't talk nonsense. Little bastard, don't rely on this official's appreciation, and be unruly all day long. The family members didn't pursue it, the Ministry of Works didn't pursue it, the Censorate didn't ask about this matter, the Dali Temple didn't make a sound, even the Embroidered Uniform Guard didn't move, what are you worrying about?"

Sun Daoning's words were quite reasonable.

Various government offices rarely reached a unified front, kept silent, and treated the matter as if it hadn't happened.

He, a small prison warden, what is he worrying about?

Crossed the boundary!

"People had an accident on my territory, I ask two sentences, it's not too much, right."

"It's not too much at all, what exactly do you want to ask? What do you want to know again?"

Chen Guanlou didn't be polite either, and asked directly, "What is His Majesty's attitude? The matter of the Imperial Mausoleum auspicious soil, the officials responsible for supervising the construction died, His Majesty didn't have any reaction?"

"These people deserved to die in the first place, and His Majesty was overjoyed to hear it. Let me tell you another piece of news: the people from the Imperial Observatory are all dead too. They died in the Imperial Prison, and they all perished in a single night as well. You see, even the Imperial Observatory has kept its mouth shut and hasn't dared to ask about this matter."

Sun Daoning spread his hands.

Chen Guanlou heard a kind of tacit understanding from the other party's words, the tacit understanding between officials and government offices.

The matter of the Imperial Mausoleum auspicious soil mudslide was buried from now on, no one is allowed to mention it, treating it as if it hadn't happened. Whoever mentions it is a traitor, betrayed the entire bureaucratic class, will be expelled from the class team, and will be cut off from the official career and the scholar forest.

Chen Guanlou clicked his tongue twice, full of sarcasm.

Sun Daoning couldn't listen to that sarcastic taste, and scolded angrily: "You are too naive!"

"It's not that I am naive, but that you people are really too dare to think, too dare to do! Admire!"

"Humph!" Sun Daoning was very dissatisfied, "Instead of asking this official, it's better to go back and ask the Marquis Prefecture heir, ask him what he wants to do."

"I don't ask him, I just ask you. Jia-sized prison, exactly which one is the eye-line you inserted? Tell me, this matter will be revealed."

"Since it is an eye-line, this official naturally cannot tell you. You die this heart."

Chen Guanlou pursued: "So, you really inserted an eye-line in the Jia-sized prison. This accident, accident, could it be that you arranged it."

"Nonsense! Roll roll roll, this official is busy with ten thousand machines every day, where is the time to chat with you. So curious, read a few more storybooks to satisfy your hunger, don't come to harass this official."

Sun Daoning's attitude was tough.

Chen Guanlou tried to no avail, couldn't get a word out, could only say goodbye first.

To verify the suspicion in his heart, it is actually not difficult.

In June, Chen Guanxu received an order to be transferred away from the Heavenly Prison and go to the Six Fanmen to work. This promotion was from clerk to official. The next step should be to be promoted to Ministry of Justice official.

This promotion speed broke the record since the Heavenly Prison. Not to mention Chen Guanlou was tongue-tied, everyone in the Heavenly Prison was discussing it.

Having a good background, the life path is really different from ordinary people. Ordinary people sit on the book clerk's chair, can sit for a lifetime without moving.

People with good backgrounds, only need two or three months, to open the flying mode.

The whole Heavenly Prison, only Mu Yiguan Mu dared to tease Chen Guanlou, "Your clan brother has been promoted, Jiang Jiang Yucheng, when will it be your turn to be promoted?"

"If I wanted to be promoted and make a fortune, I would have been promoted eight hundred years ago, still need to envy others here. People have their own aspirations, he has his way, I have my choice."

Taking advantage of the last day of work, Chen Guanlou set up a banquet in the office, feasting Chen Guanxu, wishing him high promotion.

Chen Guanxu went to the banquet happily, still looking steady and generous, speaking interestingly and with a sense of proportion.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of dishes.

Chen Guanlou was unexpected, suddenly asked: "Killing the Ministry of Works criminal officials, did you arrange for Xiao Jin to do it?"

"I..." Chen Guanxu's smile froze on his face, he put down his wine glass, wiped his face, "What did the Lord say just now, killing what people? I didn't understand."

Hehe!

Chen Guanlou sneered twice, "You heard my question clearly. It was you who did it, right."

"What did I do?" Chen Guanxu picked up the wine glass again, with a smile on the corner of his eye. The attitude was very certain, vaguely revealing a trace of provocation, "I really don't understand very well. Lou brother, you'd better say it clearly."

Chen Guanlou sneered coldly, and scolded unhurriedly: "Hurry up and roll! Once you come to my Heavenly Prison, you stir up wind and rain, what do you think the Heavenly Prison is, is it a place where you can scatter wild? For the sake of the same surname Chen, I won't calculate with you. Don't let me catch the handle next time."

"Without evidence, Lou brother can't talk nonsense."

"Are you sure you want me to produce evidence?" Chen Guanlou smiled like a smile, "If you force me to produce evidence, I'm afraid you can't bear the consequences. If I make a move, someone must die! Who dies, you decide, okay?"

Chen Guanxu's smile froze again, his hands trembled and put down the wine glass, laughed awkwardly, "Lou brother is joking. I understand your meaning completely, say goodbye here! I will try my best to avoid disturbing you."

"You'd better do what you say. Tell the old guy, next time you want to arrange people to come over, think about the consequences first. Everything can be once, can't be twice, can't be three times! Even if it's the same surname, I will never be soft when it should be killed." ===== CHAPTER 796 =====
