Chapter 904: Within two years, you will definitely die

The family members of the traitorous Prince of Cheng dragged their feet and finally arrived in the capital. Because Sun Daoning intervened, this group of people was arranged in the Heavenly Prison.

Chen Guanlou was very dissatisfied.

He ran to the Ministry of Justice to reason and complain to Old Sun. "Old Sun, can you do something decent? Are the family members of the Prince of Cheng good people? That's trouble, heaven-sized trouble. For people of this nature, you should just throw them to the Embroidered Uniform Guard; why must you imprison them in the Heavenly Prison? You think I'm too idle and are deliberately finding things for me to do, right?"

"Don't stick gold on your own face; when this official makes a decision, why do I need to see if you are idle or not? Don't think about throwing all the prisoners to the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Are the family members of the Prince of Cheng not good? These are fat sheep!"

Chen Guanlou despised him silently. "You are sure they are fat sheep. The Prince of Cheng's mansion has been raided; those family members, you think there is still much private money left?"

"You don't understand this. The Prince of Cheng's mansion was indeed raided, but the relatives of the Prince of Cheng were not raided. For example, the Prince of Cheng's heir, imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, his maternal grandfather's family, his wife's family, all have to come out to handle things. These are all money. Besides, as the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows. This official doesn't believe that we can't squeeze out some oil and water."

"You are really just for the oil and water, that you imprisoned the Prince of Cheng's family in the Heavenly Prison?"

Chen Guanlou didn't quite believe it.

Sun Daoning prided himself on being a scholar, wanting face, loving money, but wouldn't show himself to be so vulgar. Under normal circumstances, he would definitely whitewash it and package himself to be high and lofty.

Today, he actually didn't package it and took a simple and straightforward route; it was abnormal, extremely abnormal.

He couldn't help but think about what was worth plotting in the family members of the Prince of Cheng. The Prince of Cheng himself, his body was sliced into a thousand pieces, and after being sewn up, he had already been buried. Although Emperor Jian Shi was very unwilling and wanted to take the Prince of Cheng's bones to feed the dogs. But on the surface, he still had to pay attention to decency, at least letting the Prince of Cheng be buried in peace.

As for whether he would be dug up to feed the dogs in a few years, that was unknown.

The family members of the Prince of Cheng were just a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered. From the moment the Prince of Cheng's mansion fell, they lost their status and their value.

"This year is difficult! This official has to consider more for the Ministry of Justice."

"Old Sun, you think I will believe it?"

"Believe it or not, this official has a public heart and no private feelings. In short, the people have arrived at the Heavenly Prison, and you are responsible for guarding them. If there is a problem in the Heavenly Prison, this official will hold you accountable."

"Do I need to do anything?"

"No need to do extra things. Just pay the money according to the rules." Sun Daoning was quite straightforward, looking like he had drilled into the eyes of money.

Chen Guanlou pondered. "Why not imprison the people in the Shaofu? Imprisoning royal clansmen in the Heavenly Prison, although not rare, is not common either."

"Imprisoning in the Heavenly Prison has its own reasons. Don't think east and west, suspecting ghosts and gods. You often say others have heavy paranoia; now it seems your paranoia is not light either. Think less about things that don't exist and just do your job."

Chen Guanlou chuckled twice, seeing that Old Sun refused to spit out the truth, he knew to change the subject and chatted about daily life.

Not long after returning to the Heavenly Prison, the yamen runners escorted the family members of the Prince of Cheng.

Without the Prince of Cheng as the backbone, the family members of the Prince of Cheng were just a group of stinky fish and rotten shrimp. Coming together, apart from the yamen runners responsible for escorting, there wasn't even a decent official, only a clerk holding official documents, asking Chen Guanlou to sign and receive the prisoners.

"Were the female family members all sent to the female prison?"

"Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen is joking; the female family members were naturally all sent to the female prison. We all understand the rules and wouldn't dare to mess around."

"It's good that you understand the rules! Why are there so many people? There are more than twenty."

"This is still considered few, just the descendants of the Prince of Cheng, a few people in charge. Others were either imprisoned on the spot or sent to the Shaofu."

"Why not send these people to the Shaofu?" Chen Guanlou asked casually.

The clerk chuckled. "It was decided above; how would I know! Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, your path is wide, why not inquire about it."

"Where would I inquire? You think I am omnipotent!" Chen Guanlou snorted coldly and didn't give the other party any good face. "When you came, did the superior have any special instructions?"

"No special instructions, just said to handle everything according to the rules." The clerk was a little more honest.

Chen Guanlou signaled his subordinates to come forward to verify their identities, register physical characteristics, such as whether there were obvious birthmarks, obvious moles, whether there were diseases, etc.

After verifying that it was correct, he signed and pressed his fingerprint. He sent the yamen runners and the clerk away.

These prisoners were naturally arranged in the A-grade prison.

"Chen Quan, you take them down and explain the rules of the Heavenly Prison to them well. Whoever they need to contact, contact them quickly; once they enter the Heavenly Prison, even the King of Heaven has to pay money."

"I am the Prince of Cheng's heir, and I also have to pay money?"

"Not only do you have to pay money, you have to pay more." Chen Guanlou stared at the Prince of Cheng's heir, who had already grown a beard. "You have been with your father for so many years, don't you understand the rules? Officialdom has the rules of officialdom, and the Heavenly Prison naturally has the rules of the Heavenly Prison. Follow the rules, and it's good for you, good for me, and good for everyone.

If you insist on challenging the rules of the Heavenly Prison based on your status, I don't mind giving you a long lesson, letting you know what the eighteenth level of hell is, and what things that can be solved with money are not called things!"

Chen Guanlou gave the other party a warning, serious throughout, with imposing pressure.

The Prince of Cheng's heir was very young, at most twenty-something. But people in this era were generally precocious, and at this age, under normal circumstances, they were already fathers. A father, and a prisoner, must deeply realize the reality of the situation and not harbor naive and childish thoughts.

The Prince of Cheng's heir's face turned slightly red, clearly from anger.

He suppressed his anger. "I am at least a royal clansman!"

"A lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and you talk to me about status. Are you naive or am I naive? You think your status is useful? Let me tell you this, if you weren't the Prince of Cheng's heir, you might still live. You are the heir, you will definitely die!"

"Impossible!" The Prince of Cheng's heir clearly couldn't accept this statement and retorted sharply.

"How is it impossible! I have been in the Heavenly Prison for so many years, and I have seen more prisoners than you have eaten rice. Is it you who understands the situation or me who understands it better? I tell you, of all the royal clansmen imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, not one has lived for more than two years. You better pray for your own blessings!"

The Prince of Cheng's heir was clearly frightened. "You are talking nonsense! Don't try to intimidate this Prince. They said that when we arrive in the capital, the Emperor, in order to show tolerance, will definitely pardon our crimes; at worst, we will be demoted to commoners. I can live, it's impossible to die!"

Chen Guanlou was very disgusted, disgusted that the other party didn't recognize reality and was naively ridiculous. Disgusted that the other party was noisy, and the noise was like noise.

But seeing that the other party was so miserable and would die sooner or later, he still spoke to the other party nicely: "The person who told you this must be lying to you."

"Impossible! Marquis Pingjiang couldn't have lied to me!"

What the hell?

The old master fooled people into being lame? ===== CHAPTER 905 =====
