Chapter 994: Sun Daoning wants to kill

~8 min read 1,478 words

The Grand Court of Revision took two people away from the Six Shanmen.

This is bad!

Chen Guanlou met with the leader of the Six Shanmen, Meng Laoda, and asked him: "Can you keep your mouth shut?"

Meng Laoda looked slightly anxious and uneasy, his eyes even a bit dazed, but he still gritted his teeth. "I can definitely keep it shut! The autopsy didn't have any problems; no matter how the Grand Court of Revision investigates, there won't be any problems with Ma Liu's case."

Chen Guanlou sneered. "Have you found out who leaked the news? The problem definitely didn't originate here at the Heavenly Prison."

Meng Laoda wanted to quibble, but was interrupted. "The people from the Grand Court of Revision have a high opinion of themselves; they look down on the prison guards of the Heavenly Prison and don't even bother to deal with them. But your Six Shanmen is different; you are all proper officials, so the Grand Court of Revision must hold you in higher regard."

"Are you so sure that the news was leaked by our brothers from the Six Shanmen?" Meng Laoda was still making a death struggle.

Chen Guanlou didn't indulge him and gave a cold sneer. "Otherwise? The prison guards of the Heavenly Prison don't know the details of Ma Liu's case; at the beginning, they didn't even know that the Ma Liu locked in the cell was a fake."

"This time, the Grand Court of Revision came prepared; they clearly obtained internal information. They know the internal information, but they don't know the real Ma."

Meng Laoda was speechless; there was no way to argue!

"What about the Ministry of Justice?"

"Unless you colluded with certain people in the Ministry of Justice when you swapped the fake for the real. Did you?"

Meng Laoda didn't speak, his complexion becoming increasingly dark, looking troubled.

Both of them fell silent.

A moment later, it was Chen Guanlou who broke the silence. "What's the situation with the two people taken away by the Grand Court of Revision?"

"Those two brats, their guts are a bit small; when they were questioned, they acted a bit flustered as soon as they were scared. The people from the Grand Court of Revision must have felt that those two brats were a breakthrough point, so they took them away with an official document."

"You didn't warn them beforehand, didn't do the work?"

"I warned them, and I warned them repeatedly, and I even set up the story. They all agreed well on their mouths, but who could have thought that as soon as it came to the real test, they would reveal their tracks, and be seen through as having a guilty conscience!"

"What a bunch of trash!" Chen Guanlou was very disgusted.

"Even worse than the Heavenly Prison guards!"

These words were very harsh; Meng Laoda wanted to refute, but had no confidence. After all, the Grand Court of Revision returned empty-handed from the Heavenly Prison, but instead had a harvest at the Six Shanmen.

As the leader, he considered this a supreme humiliation!

"Getting worse every year! Could it be that the Six Shanmen only recruits people with connections?" Chen Guanlou asked with a cold face.

Meng Laoda smiled bitterly repeatedly. "Brother Chen, please don't say any more; I'm miserable enough."

Sentence after sentence, the sarcasm was pulled to the max; who could endure this?

Chen Guanlou snorted coldly. "Think about how to clean up the mess."

"How about..." Meng Laoda's heart hardened, and he made a throat-slitting gesture.

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows, sneering in his heart. "What, you want me to be the executioner for you?"

"I ask Brother Chen to lend a helping hand!"

"You're so vicious to your own people; do your subordinates know?"

"I have no other choice. At worst, I'll support their families in the future."

"Is your brain flooded with water?" Chen Guanlou disregarded his face and their colleague relationship, scolding him head-on. "You think killing people can solve the problem? Naive! If people die now, the Grand Court of Revision isn't stupid; they'll guess with their toes that it was the Ministry of Justice. If it blows up, this lawsuit will truly be endless, and everyone will be implicated."

"Then what do you say we do? Those two brats entered the interrogation room; they definitely won't be able to withstand the torture, and they will definitely spill the truth."

Meng Laoda's hands were shaking!

He was afraid!

Once the truth was revealed, if the higher-ups investigated, losing his official position would be a small matter. What was even more fatal was that his head wouldn't be guaranteed. When the time came to walk onto the execution ground, decades of struggle would all turn into bubbles.

Chen Guanlou looked at the other man's fearful appearance and gave a contemptuous smile. "What are you afraid of! The corpse is real, so the case is real. Even if the process has some twists and turns, what about the evidence? The most important witness, the real Ma Liu, is lying in the morgue; even if they talk until the sky breaks, the Grand Court of Revision won't be able to overturn the Ministry of Justice based on a few words of nonsense testimony. This case, nothing else is important; what's important is Ma. At least you don't have to worry about my people turning against us because they can't withstand the pressure!"

Meng Laoda wiped his face. "Brother Chen, please help. I don't even dare to go to the Ministry of Justice now; I'm afraid Minister Sun will kill me. You think of a way for me; there will definitely be a heavy reward afterwards."

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly. "Use medicine."

"Use medicine on whom?" Meng Laoda didn't react.

Chen Guanlou despised him thoroughly. "Of course, use medicine on your two useless subordinates."

Meng Laoda slapped his head hard. "Brother Chen is still the thoughtful one. Medicine, yes, medicine. It's best if it's medicine that makes it impossible to enter the interrogation room to be tortured, and it must be medicine that makes it impossible to open their mouths. Eh, why didn't I think of that before."

"Do you have people in the Grand Court of Revision?" Chen Guanlou was very curious and asked in a low voice.

Meng Laoda gave a silly laugh, very smug. "I've been mixing in the capital for so many years; it wasn't for nothing. I'm familiar with every yamen. Especially my peers; I can call out the names of anyone. As for the Grand Court of Revision, I dare not say anything else, but as for the prison side, hehe..."

"Be careful; maybe they're already prepared over there, just waiting for you to take the bait."

"Brother Chen, rest assured, I know the weight of this matter. I have people I use often; I guarantee I can complete the mission without anyone knowing. It's just the medicine; I still have to ask Medical Official Mu of the Heavenly Prison for a favor."

"This matter is simple!"

The two discussed it properly.

Meng Laoda went to contact the people to do the work, while Chen Guanlou returned to the Heavenly Prison to find Medical Official Mu to get the medicine.

When Medical Official Mu heard the request, his brows furrowed so much they could pinch a mosquito to death, and he said with extreme disgust: "How can the people of the Six Shanmen be such trash?"

"Yeah! It exceeded my imagination!" Chen Guanlou echoed repeatedly. "In the end, there's a problem with management; the people below have all become worms, revealing their true colors as soon as they're scared. Truly trash! Enough, Old Mu, is there such medicine or not?"

"There is. It's just that after taking the medicine, they will suffer a bit."

"They deserve to suffer!" Chen Guanlou wasn't worried at all, as long as they didn't die.

Medical Official Mu went home himself to get the medicine. When he handed the poison to Chen Guanlou, he didn't forget to ask: "Can it really solve the problem?"

Chen Guanlou replied solemnly: "That's why we need to clean up the mess! Meng Changgen is scared to death, afraid that Sun Daoning will kill him, so he's been hiding and doesn't dare to go to the Ministry of Justice. If he makes another mistake in this matter, even if the Heavenly King comes, he won't be able to save his life." ===== CHAPTER 995 =====

Chen Guanlou replied solemnly: "That is why we must handle the aftermath! Meng Changgen is scared to death, terrified that Sun Daoning will kill him, so he keeps hiding and dares not go to the Ministry of Justice. If he makes any more mistakes in this matter, even the King of Heaven himself couldn't save his life."
