Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible
Chapter 270 The New Year's Eve that can't be crossed
A few days later, Chen Guanlou went to the cell and told the Meng brothers that Zhao Laosi's brother-in-law had been arrested. A few days later, he told them that Zhao Laosi was involved in the brother-in-law's case. A few days later, there was new news that the Jinyiwei invited Zhao Laosi to have tea.
The two Meng brothers knelt on the ground and kowtowed, not complaining that the ground was too hard.
Chen Guanlou coughed lightly and said, "No need to do this. You gave money. It's natural to get things done with money."
However, the two brothers still knelt on the ground and kowtowed, opening their mouths and babbling, as if they were saying words of gratitude. Then, Meng Laoer hit the wall, with an attitude that he had fulfilled his wish and ended his life there.
Chen Guanlou hurriedly stopped, "What are you doing, what are you doing? I told you to stay away and don't make the cell bloody. It's hard to clean, you know. The Tianlao is not the imperial prison. In my territory, everyone should be as clean as possible. Okay, that's it."
After that, he left.
He knew very well that the Meng brothers had not given up their desire to die, and he had never thought of stopping them from doing so. However, they did not have to die with bloodshed. There were so many ways to die, it should not be difficult to choose a clean and decent way to die.
On the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, Zhao Laosi had been invited to the Jinyiwei for five days, and he had not yet escaped. It was obvious that he was going to bleed a lot, and he might have to go to the torture room.
Chen Guanlou went to work early in the morning and took his jailers to inspect the cells.
When he arrived at the door of the cell of the Meng brothers, a jailer shouted, "Chen, look!"
Dead!
Both brothers died!
There was no bloodshed, but the clothes were torn into strips, tied into two ropes, and hung on the cell door, and they died by hanging. Because the height was not high enough, the feet of the two could touch the ground, and as long as the two put their feet down, they could live. But in order to die, the two curled up their feet and refused to touch the ground. Until death, both feet remained curled up.
The body was already stiff, and the curled legs could not be straightened no matter what.
This scene hurt everyone's five senses.
How determined is the desire to die to do this.
"Why is it so?" Chen Guanlou sighed secretly, "Send someone to the next door imperial prison to inform them that the prisoner is theirs. Now that the person is dead, let them arrange for a medical officer to come for an autopsy and arrange for servants to carry the body. Qian Fugui, sort out the bills and send them to the next door imperial prison later."
Brothers should settle accounts clearly, not to mention that the two families are not brothers. They can only be regarded as colleagues. Everyone is looking forward to death in the same industry, and will never let the other party take advantage of a penny.
Niu Yucheng got the news and said, "It's better to die! Let the people of the imperial prison clean up quickly, arrange people to clean up well, and sprinkle some quicklime to get rid of the bad luck."
"Your Excellency is right, the next door imperial prison is unlucky, even their prisoners are unlucky." Chen Guanlou echoed.
Niu Yu Cheng laughed, first praised Chen Guanlou, then talked about business, "After the New Year, I may be transferred to another government office. Don't worry, I have already reported to the higher authorities to promote you to prison guard. You left such a deep impression on Lord Sun, I think things should go smoothly." Chen Guanlou was overjoyed when he heard this, "Thank you, Lord! I will never forget your kindness in re-creating me." "You have done a good job recently, and we should help each other." Niu Yu Cheng was in a good mood. With Chen Guanlou's cooperation, he received a lot of money. He used money to pave the way and had already opened up his network of contacts. He only had to wait until the New Year to leave Tianlao. This place is deep. No wonder no one can stay as Tianlao Yu Cheng for a long time. Chen Guanlou was looking forward to promotion and wealth. He had a particularly happy Spring Festival this year. He bought a generous gift for his elder sister and sent it to stop Su Pozi's nagging mouth. A Spring Festival gift was given to Master Du, and a Spring Festival gift was also given to the Marquis' Mansion.
The eldest master took good care of him, and he knew what was good for him. Although the eldest master was not in the capital, the gift had to be sent. He went through the back door and told the doorman to send it directly to the first wife.
As for the second wife, he had not provoked or contacted her, so it was inappropriate to send a Spring Festival gift or not. He simply pretended not to know.
Sister Chunxiang helped a lot on weekdays, and she also received a Spring Festival gift. Sister Chunxiang received the gift and smiled so much that her teeth were not visible. She happily accepted the gift and invited him to have a meal.
Boss Qu, who lived opposite, made money this year and prepared a gift for each neighbor. The gift was not expensive, but the thought was better.
Chen Guanlou returned a gift, which was a few traditional things: cakes, five pounds of pork, and a pot of wine.
Mrs. Qu received him. Chen Guanlou asked casually, "Boss Qu has been very busy lately, right?"
"Busy settling accounts at the end of the year, so he is busier than usual. Isn't Mr. Chen busy during the New Year?"
"Busy! Everyone is busy! The Tianlao also has the New Year, and there are many things to do. Look, I have to rush back to the Tianlao to do some finishing work. No more chatting, goodbye!"
Chen Guanlou left decisively, and Mrs. Qu personally sent him out the door, and didn't look away until he entered the courtyard gate.
Normally, during the New Year, all the major government offices only hope for peace. The court will not open a major case to arrest people at this time. The old emperor also has to pay attention to auspiciousness and will not arrest people and put them in jail during the New Year.
No matter what, let's talk about it after the New Year.
The Tianlao prison room closed the knife on the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, and will not open the knife again until the 15th day of the first lunar month.
Lu Datou complained, "At least we can arrest a few more people and get some money for the New Year."
"You didn't lose all your money for the New Year, did you?"
"No, not really." Lu Datou turned his head away guiltily, avoiding Chen Guanlou's pressing gaze.
Chen Guanlou kicked him, "You will die at the gambling table sooner or later. What will you do for the New Year?"
"Hehe..." Lu Datou could only smile, he didn't know what to do. Everyone knew that he was a gambler, and no one would lend him money during the Chinese New Year. Even the money banks outside are not willing to lend money to gamblers during the Chinese New Year, as they think it is unlucky. If you want to borrow money, you have to wait until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
This would be tantamount to forcing him to death.
The tigress at home has begun to show off her power. The couple had a fight last night. The child’s teacher did not prepare any preparations for the annual gift. Oops, there are so many places to spend money.
Chen Guanlou snorted coldly, turned and left.
"Chen Tou, Chen Tou..."
Lu Datou shouted hurriedly. The only person he can count on now is Chen Guanlou.
But Chen Guanlou said to him: "From now on, I will only lend money to my sister-in-law. You can never get a penny from me."
"Don't! I'm a big man and I don't even have a single coin on my body. How embarrassing."
Deserve it!
Chen Guanlou's face fell, and he threatened with his eyes, "Don't follow me. I still want to be a brother, so be honest with me during the Chinese New Year."
That night, he went to Lu's house and left ten taels of silver for Mrs. Lu to use as New Year expenses.
Sister-in-law Lu was grateful but at a loss, "I can't afford it."
"Sister-in-law, you don't need to worry about repaying the money. I will ask Big Touou for it. I have already told the accountant that on the day when the money is distributed every month, I will ask the accountant to deduct a sum of money from Big Touou. Let my sister-in-law pick it up."
"Here, is this okay?" Sister-in-law Lu was a little panicked. Even though she was a big woman and a shrew, she had never had any dealings with the yamen. Naturally, he was afraid of the Yamen.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, the matter has been settled. The day after the money is distributed, you can just go and collect the money directly with your household registration number."
"Thank you, thank you!"
