"Did the prison collapse? Oh, I heard someone mention it a few days ago, saying that the Six Gates are investigating the case. Chen Yucheng, don't make things difficult for me. If even the Six Gates can't figure out the case, how can I get the news earlier than the Six Gates?"
The old court official made an expression that he had nothing to say, and he really had no news about the case. He picked up the teacup and was about to serve the tea to the guest.
Chen Guanlou raised his hand to press the teacup in the other's hand, "Old court official, don't joke with me! This is a big deal, a big deal directly related to me. You want to get rid of me with just a word that you don't know, do you think it's possible? If you want to get rid of me today, you must give me something real."
"Chen Yucheng, you are wrong. How can you force a business transaction? I really don't know, but I can't make up a lie to you."
"If you can really make up some news, I will admit it!"
Chen Guanlou was firm.
I came to the gambling house today, and I didn't plan to leave empty-handed.
This place is a treasure land. Either give me news or give me money. I just don't know what the old Chaofeng will choose.
The old Chaofeng is so angry.
I have seen thick-skinned people, but this is the first time I have seen such a shameless person.
"Chen Yucheng, don't embarrass me!"
"You are joking. My greatest advantage is respecting the elderly and loving the young. I can't even respect you enough, so how can I embarrass you. In fact, I should say this. Please don't embarrass me for the sake of my difficult work. Give me some news and send me away early. This is the best policy."
Chen Guanlou is sincere and earnest.
He really came to buy some news, and he was reluctant to make excuses.
Don't say that he has no news at all. The attitude of the old Chaofeng alone is suspicious.
Besides, the Tianlao prison collapsed, such a big news, and the gambling house made friends with all kinds of people, so there is really no clue at all?
The Six Gates have their own ways!
The Gambling House has its own ways!
It is very possible that everyone has different ways and different sources of information.
Now it seems that the Six Gates' way is blocked, or there are too many obstacles, and there has been no progress so far. It doesn't make sense that the old Chaofeng has no news at all.
It doesn't make sense!
No matter how powerful the jailbreakers are, they have to eat, wear clothes, stay, and go in and out of the capital. People who pass by must stay.
With the old Chaofeng's ears all over the streets and alleys of the capital, didn't he find anything unusual?
The old Chaofeng was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
"Chen Yucheng, I am now half dead. Do you think I can still support such a big stall?"
Chen Guanlou smiled, "As long as you are still in the gambling house, this stall can't do without you. One day when you live at home, I really won't disturb you."
This is true.
No matter how old the old Chaofeng is, as long as he still lives in the gambling house and manages this business, he is the center of information. All kinds of troubles from all walks of life will gather here.
The old Chaofeng was so angry that he picked up the teacup, and he didn't know whether to drink it or not.
"Don't be so dissatisfied with me! The grudges of the past were made clear and written off. Look at you, why bother now. Hurry up and give me some clues. It's the best policy to send me away early. If you insist on keeping me here for dinner, of course I won't refuse."
Chen Guanlou looked sincere. He was a chef who was very rare in the gambling house and had good cooking skills.
The old Chaofeng was forced into a corner.
Anyone who encounters such a rogue can't beat him or scold him. The key is that he can't win, and he will feel helpless, and it seems that he can only compromise.
The old Chaofeng coughed lightly and stretched out his hand to the beautiful maid beside him.
The beautiful maid didn't say anything, got up and went to the inner room to take out a wooden box.
The old court official opened the wooden box with a key, and then pushed the box directly in front of Chen Guanlou, "If there is news inside, then there is. If there is no news inside, then there is no news. Don't bother me anymore! You are not welcome here in the future."
"Look at what you said, what welcome or not, I think you are joking." Chen Guanlou didn't care about the other party's attitude at all, "Don't worry, if there is really no news, I won't pester you shamelessly. What do I want from you? It's nothing more than a sincere attitude. You see, things are that simple."
He smiled and looked indifferent. He opened the wooden box and took a look, and took out a note. After reading it, it turned into dust.
He smiled and bowed to the old court official, "Thank you, old sir, I will come to have tea with you tomorrow! Thanks to your hospitality today, I have gained a lot. Goodbye!"
Old court official:...
He stared at the note that turned into dust, and his mood was very complicated.
I didn't expect there was really news.
After Chen Guanlou left, the maid asked, "Sir, do you want to send someone to ask?"
The old court official thought for a while and made a decision, "No. This is about the Tianlao. Tell the people below that there is no need to inquire or pursue it in the future. Let him go. He is a person we can't afford to offend."
The maid said in a loud tone, "It's just the ninth rank."
The old court official laughed at himself, "Yes, it's just the ninth rank! It's just the ninth rank that can challenge the peak of the ninth rank and tie it. Can't you see what the situation of the Jixia Academy is now?"
"If we can invite the master to come forward, the mere ninth rank will be easily captured."
"Do you think the master is a cabbage on the street that can be invited casually?" The old court official laughed, "You are too young and think things are too simple. The master is not someone you can invite just because you want to."
"Can't the boss invite him?"
"The boss is powerful in the secular world, but in the world of masters, what does it mean? You don't practice martial arts, and you don't understand the world of martial artists. The higher you go, the farther you are from the mundane world, and the less you care about the money and wealth that everyone in the mundane world envies."
"Why does that prison warden Chen still stay in the Heavenly Prison? A dignified ninth-rank martial artist, isn't it embarrassing to be a small prison warden?"
"Do you think he is embarrassing?" The old Chaofeng asked back.
The round-faced maid shook her head slightly, "I don't think he's ashamed. I just think it's a pity. He's so handsome, but it's a pity that he's a prison warden."
"He's a prison warden different from other prison wardens." The old court official smiled and patiently explained to the beautiful maid beside him, "Other prison wardens are controlled by their superiors. Who can control him as a prison warden? He is willing to cooperate because he knows the rules and doesn't want to conflict with his colleagues. If he is not willing to cooperate one day, who in the Ministry of Justice can use him! Furthermore, with him in charge of the Tianlao, the Ministry of Justice has a lot of face. The Jinyiwei now don't like to provoke the Ministry of Justice, and it's also because of him."
"Is he really that powerful?" The round-faced maid was very curious.
The old court official smiled and nodded, "He is very powerful, more powerful than you think. So, I can only be controlled by him. It's really infuriating!"
I'm looking forward to the day when a master will take the initiative to deal with the thief named Chen.
