Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible
Chapter 210: Confession
Before Chen Guanlou arrived home, he saw Liu's housekeeper squatting at the door of his courtyard from a distance, followed by a boy carrying gifts.
He laughed, full of disdain.
As soon as Liu's housekeeper approached the Tianlao, he was driven away by the jailer. Since there was no one to guard him in the prison, he simply came to Chen's house and stayed there. Unexpectedly, I was so lucky that I found someone while squatting on the first day.
"Chen Tou, Chen Tou."
He rushed forward to meet him.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen is finally back."
Chen Guanlou looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile. Housekeeper Liu looked guilty and moved his eyes from side to side, not daring to face Chen Guanlou's gaze. I can only laugh to make up for it.
"Tou Chen, look at this, why don't you go in and talk about this? I will definitely give a satisfactory explanation to Mr. Chen."
"Okay! Let's talk after we enter the room. I also want to hear what you can say."
He opened the courtyard door and invited people in. Just in the courtyard, there is a table, two chairs and a pot of tea, protected from the glaring sunlight.
Chen Guanlou poured the tea himself, while the housekeeper of the Liu Mansion looked frightened, holding the teacup in both hands, and looked extremely reserved.
Chen Guanlou ignored him and said slowly: "I had a chat with Mr. Liu today. It was really interesting. Butler Liu, are you trying to betray the master?"
"What a huge injustice!" The housekeeper of the Liu family put down the teacup and almost knelt down. He looked extremely panicked and his eyes were confused. "Even if you give me ten courages, I don't dare to betray the Lord. I am a son of the Liu family. Three generations of my family have worked in the Liu family, and even my surname has been changed to Liu. If I betray the master, who else in the world will dare to use me, and I will have no way out. "
Chen Guanlou smiled, "I don't believe it!"
"Tou Chen, please listen to my explanation." Butler Liu's house looked particularly anxious, "Everything is my fault. I am the one who makes my own decisions and has nothing to do with my master."
"Oh! So you know. I thought you accidentally picked up the wrong painting." He was full of sarcasm.
The housekeeper of the Liu Mansion lowered his head in embarrassment, waved his hand and asked the boy to wait outside, and then said: "Tou Chen doesn't know something. The master ordered me to destroy the painting before, but I am worried about being held accountable afterwards. I kept hesitating until the master said that the case was about to be decided and the outcome would definitely not be good. I was afraid that it would not be... I thought about it, wondering if it would be possible for the eldest master of the Hou family to like this painting and help my master get through the current situation. Difficulties.
Only then did he make the decision to put the painting together with other belongings. I didn't dare to tell Mr. Chen beforehand because he was afraid that Mr. Chen would disagree. Alas... I am confused and I am smart. Mr. Chen, please don't anger my master. If you want to beat or punish me, just come to me. Even if you want my head, I will admit it! "
Butler Liu's house felt guilty at first, then gradually became calm, and finally looked righteous and awe-inspiring. He thinks that as a housekeeper, it is his duty to take care of the master who is in prison. He was sorry for Chen Guanlou, but he was worthy of his master and the Liu family, and he fulfilled his duty.
He has a clear conscience when he fulfills his duty to his master's family.
Chen Guanlou bared his teeth.
People these days are proud of their loyalty, and Liu's housekeeper is no exception.
"Your plan has failed. The eldest master of the Hou Mansion will never interfere in Mr. Liu's case."
The housekeeper of the Liu Mansion was filled with disappointment when he heard this, "Actually, from the very beginning, I knew that this would definitely not be possible. However, I still wanted to give it a try, even if there was only a one in 10,000 chance. If it happened, it would be my master's. Luck. After all, I took it for granted and caused trouble to you, I will apologize."
After saying that, he had to kneel down.
Chen Guanlou stretched out his hand weakly, but Housekeeper Liu couldn't kneel down no matter what, and a force stopped him.
He raised his head and looked at Chen Guanlou with wide eyes, a look of disbelief on his face.
Chen Guanlou showed his hand in front of him to remind him, "Although I don't have martial arts, I practice martial arts every day and never slack off. It's no problem to deal with seven or eight ordinary people. You Liu Mansion, according to what I know You know, there are no warriors. Do you dare to plot against me because you are sure that I am not capable of killing people?"
"No, no, no, I never meant that." Liu's housekeeper broke into a cold sweat. He didn't expect that Chen Guanlou was a dog and would fall out whenever he wanted.
"Please be merciful to Mr. Chen. If Mr. Chen wants to kill someone to vent his anger, just kill me. No one else in the Liu family knows about this matter, and even his wife doesn't know about the existence of this painting."
Chen Guanlou sneered, let go, and lost all his strength.
The housekeeper of the Liu Mansion held the table legs in time to prevent it from falling to the ground. He panted, slowly sat back in the chair, and took a sip of tea to calm his panic.
"Thank you very much for not killing me, Chen Tou."
"I'm afraid it will stain the ground."
"Yes, yes. How can a villain like me pollute Chen Tou's family? Chen Tou can come and take my life at any time without any complaints. I just hope that Chen Tou will not vent his anger on others. I will do this. Yes, I will bear it alone.”
"You knew clearly that the painting was a scourge, but you didn't burn it. You still dared to make your own decisions and plot against me. You are very courageous. To say that you betrayed the Lord is not unfair to you at all."
This time, the housekeeper of the Liu family did not defend himself. He sighed and said, "It's easy to burn paintings. I'm afraid that one day the higher-ups will investigate this matter and the Liu family won't be able to explain it and suffer another disaster."
"There is something in your words!" Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly.
Butler Liu Mansion looked at him, "Does Mr. Chen think Mr. Jiang can continue to be so proud?"
How is that possible!
Jiang Tu is like a grasshopper after autumn, and will be liquidated sooner or later. The difference is whether the old emperor liquidates him or the new emperor liquidates him.
"One day in the future, Lord Jiang will be liquidated by the court, and this painting may be found out. The Jinyiwei will definitely investigate to the end. It is easy to destroy the painting, but how to explain it when the Jinyiwei investigates. After thinking about it, the only way is to divert it."
"You are very skilled at diverting the trouble!" Chen Guanlou said sarcastically.
The housekeeper of Liu's house was embarrassed and explained in a low voice: "The master of the Marquis's house has sufficient capital and deep background. For the Liu family, the painting may bring a disaster. But for the master, a mere painting will not hurt the skin at all. Therefore, I dare to take this bad plan. Don't worry, Chentou, the Liu family does not want a penny for this batch of goods, all of them belong to Chentou. If the master of the Marquis's house refuses to accept the painting, just return it. I will burn the painting at the risk of being investigated and liquidated in the future."
At this moment, the housekeeper of Liu's house finally made up his mind that he must burn the painting that caused trouble.
Chen Guanlou laughed, "Money, if you don't tell me, I won't give you a penny. This is what your Liu family owes me. As for the painting, the master likes it."
Surprise fell from the sky, and the Liu family's housekeeper was so happy that his hands were shaking, "Really? The master likes that painting, seriously?"
"Yes, he likes it. It's okay for you to know about this, don't tell your master."
"Why is that!"
"You haven't been to the Tianlao these days, and you haven't seen Master Liu, so you don't know. Master Liu can't stand the stimulation."
"Ah!" The Liu family's housekeeper panicked!
