Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible

"Your Excellency has many connections in the court, why should you be afraid of Jiang Tu." Chen Guanlou tried.

Yu Zhaoan smiled bitterly, "Don't you understand yet? If someone named Xiao comes to interrogate me, it means that my colleagues in the DPRK have either given up on me, or there is nothing they can do. This is a game, and there is no winner. It only depends on how far the fight goes before Your Majesty is willing to stop. And I am a pawn in this game and am not qualified to be a chess player."

"With your wisdom, even if you really go to Jinyiwei, I believe you can handle it with ease."

"It's easier said than done! If you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your family, right? It's better to die for one person than to die for the whole family."

Yu Zhaoan looked frustrated and extremely decadent. In a short period of time, he seemed to have aged ten years.

Chen Guanlou was puzzled, "Are you really unable to fight back?"

Given Yu Zhaoan's background, doesn't he even have any means of self-protection?

Yu Zhaoan gritted his teeth and slapped his hand on the fence, his expression getting more and more crazy, "Yes, of course. I wonder if Mr. Chen is willing to help a bunch of officials."

Chen Guanlou immediately refused, joking, how could he, a small jailer, participate in such a big event.

"Sir, please don't make things difficult for me. I will only do what is within my responsibilities."

Yu Zhaoan was extremely disappointed, "Chen Guanlou, you are really a hateful person. Sometimes I see that you have a conscience and a bottom line. But when you need your help, you push back and hold back for various reasons."

"My lord's request is really too much. The struggle at your level is something that little people like me can get involved in. My lord, after all, you have a wife and children. Even if you die, you, the old Yu family, will never be able to cut off the incense. If I were If he dies, our old Chen family will really be in ruins."

Chen Guanlou complained repeatedly and was miserable.

Yu Zhaoan laughed angrily, biting his back teeth and pointing at the other person. He was speechless for a while and almost choked himself to death.

Chen Guanlou advised him to be more liberal and to cooperate as much as he should when he was imprisoned, so as to try to suffer less.

"In the final analysis, it's all about money. If you bureaucrats could get His Majesty a lot of money, Your Majesty wouldn't listen to Jiang Tu, right?"

Yu Zhaoan was stunned on the spot, staring at him blankly.

Chen Guanlou felt guilty for a while and felt very uneasy, "I didn't say anything wrong, sir. Please don't scare me."

Yu Zhaoan laughed and said, "What you just said reminded me. You are right. What Jiang Tu relies on is nothing more than making money. Jiang Tu is not the only person who is good at making money."

Chen Guanlou was very curious. From this tone, it seemed like things were turning around. He asked tentatively: "Can you get money, sir?"

"I don't know how to run a business, but I know where to make money. Jiang Tu points his sword at me, but his intention is essentially to make money. I heard that the reward for the Jinzhou thieves army has not been allocated yet?"

"I really don't know about this. But I can be sure that the officials in the capital have not received a penny from their salaries. This year, many poor officials in the capital can't even afford meat and have to rely on loans to survive."

Unless he was small and weak and had no big backers, Chen Guanlou would have wanted to lend money and specialize in the loan business for Beijing officials. This is big business.

"Humph, I am sure that the rewards for the Jinzhou thieves' army have not been distributed. With such delay, something big will happen sooner or later. By then, Pingjiang Marquis will not be able to calm down the anger of the DPRK."

"At worst, the merits and demerits are equal to each other, just as some people wish."

For such a great contribution, the imperial court did not give him any promotion or title, but only gave him some false titles, such as the nominal governor of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, and did not do anything at all.

This shows how stingy the court was and how stingy the old emperor was.

The eldest master's credit, not to mention Qingtian's protection, was that he helped the old emperor calm down the restless hearts of the world and the ambitious people who were about to make a move. This kind of merit, not to mention promotion to a title, but some actual benefits, more gold and silver treasures, and an official position with real power is a hundred times better than a false position.

I disliked the fact that the eldest man was disabled and could not serve as an official, so he should not have been appointed as the commander-in-chief in the first place. He deserves to be the commander-in-chief, but he is reluctant to give him the official position of real power. Tsk!

How stingy!

Yu Zhaoan half-smiled, "Chen Guanlou, it concerns Marquis Pingjiang's future. Are you really unwilling to help me?"

"I'm weak and timid, so I can't help. Master Yu, you'd better hire someone else."

Yu Zhaoan was so angry that his expression was distorted.

Chen Guanlou was as stubborn as ever. He gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't want to help me, forget it. Please bring me a message to the housekeeper in my house, okay?"

"You can write a letter and I can help you deliver it to your house before Jin Yiwei comes to pick up the person."

Yu Zhaoan stopped talking nonsense and started writing quickly and well.

Chen Guanlou turned his back to the cell door and refused to read the contents of the letter.

Yu Zhaoan dried the ink and put the letter into an envelope, "Okay, you can turn it over. For the sake of helping me deliver the letter, I promise not to implicate you."

Chen Guanlou took the envelope, checked the seal to make sure it was complete, and then accepted it.

"Your Excellency, please take care of it. I'll go check on the situation. If there is any new situation, I will let the jailer inform you."

"Go quickly, go quickly. Let's see what outrageous things those royal guards can do."

Chen Guanlou hurried out of the prison and was informed that Sun Daoning, the Minister of Punishment, was here. He was talking to Mr. Xiao, the Jin Yiwei, in the official room.

"Since Master Sun is here, I won't go in. Is Master Xiao Fan here?"

"Reporting to Chen Tou, Xiao Fan has been found, but Xiao Fan was drunk last night and has not yet sobered up. It will take some time for him to come."

Chen Guanlou sneered, "Forget about him. Let Fan Yucheng worry about his affairs."

He went into the side room to drink tea. Through the window of the side room, he could directly see the movement at the door of the office. He was sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, and he could hear a few words.

Sun Daoning was quarreling with Xiao Jincheng. Although it was quarreling, the words used by others were very elegant and roundabout. Without some literary skills and having never dealt with civil servants, I really don't understand the sharpness of the words and the meaning of the twists and turns in the words.

Want documents?

Okay!

It's just the paperwork for the interrogation of the prisoner. The Jinyiwei can handle it in minutes.

But it was obvious that Sun Daoning was not happy. He was a civil servant, so of course he had to protect the interests of the civil servants and keep the position of his colleagues. He accused the Jinyiwei of overstepping the line on the spot.

Don't mention Jiang Tu, Jiang Tu is just a mean person. He only asked Jinyiwei what he had to do to stop.

The two sides were on the verge of a fight, Fan Yucheng was anxious and terrified, sweating all over, and dared not say a word. He could only watch the two big guys fighting back and forth, turning the office into a fighting arena.

At this moment, Fan Yucheng hoped that someone would stand up to help him out, at least let him find an excuse to withdraw, this scene was too brutal, he was not suitable to watch.
