Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible
Chapter 35: Disaster is coming
After a round of inspection, Chen Guanlou felt extremely relaxed without the threat of Duan Tianlin.
He hummed a song and walked towards the check-in room. When he was about to arrive, he suddenly stopped.
Inside and outside the check-in gate, there were two rows of six-door police officers standing tall and tall, each with a long face, like a bull's head and a horse's face, patrolling the territory.
When Chen Guanlou saw this situation, he suddenly took a breath of cold air.
The officials above are so insidious. They took advantage of everyone's relaxation to launch a sudden attack. Unfortunately, there was not enough staff tonight, and half of them were not at their posts. They either went to the A-shaped prison to participate in the gambling game, or went to the office room to sleep.
The people who stayed in the check-in room were not much better off. They were caught gambling.
It's over!
Chen Guanlou was a little lucky, but also a little worried. He was afraid of being implicated. He had to take a deep breath and walk towards the check-in room.
It was quiet in the duty room, no one was breathing.
As soon as he entered, he saw jailer Li Hu kneeling in the center. The gambling game tonight was organized by him. The other jailers knelt on both sides, all trembling with fear.
In the front position, Mr. Sun Daoning, the left minister of the Ministry of Justice, was sitting on a chair with a white porcelain teacup in his hand. The tea in the teacup was steaming. The mist rose, misty and psychedelic, and Master Sun's face also became a little blurry.
Regardless of whether he was wrong or not, Chen Guanlou immediately knelt down and apologized without saying a word, "Greetings to your lord! I apologize for not being able to greet you in time."
Damn, these knees are so weak! Kneeling is so uncomfortable!
However, he was a lowly jailer and did not even have the right to speak loudly.
"You're the only one on duty."
"Replying to my lord, it happened to be my turn to be the errand boy."
Sun Shilang seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "I have long heard that the management of the Heavenly Prison is in chaos, and that all the jailers are full of five kinds of poison. No matter who enters the Heavenly Prison, regardless of whether they are guilty or not, they will have their skin peeled off. The most vicious among the yamen. The person is none other than the jailer."
Hearing this, Chen Guanlou curled his lips secretly, feeling disgusted in his heart.
How Master Sun had the nerve to say such shameless words is breathtaking.
No matter how bad the jailer is, he is only bad in appearance. How could he compare to an official who would destroy people's whole families and entire clans at every turn? Just by talking, dozens, hundreds or even thousands of people will lose their heads. If you act selfishly, you can get thousands of taels of silver into your pocket. If you use the power in your hands, all the people in the world will be like cows and horses, and they will never be able to stand up again.
Compared to the officials, the jailers are so bad that they are so cute. As long as you give money, the jailer will take good care of you and help you get medical advice.
No matter how bad the jailer is, he is still not one percent as good as an official.
Of course, he only dared to think about these in his mind. At this moment, Sun Shilang was the eldest. He said that the sun rises from the west, and everyone could only agree and say "Your Majesty is wise"!
"In such a huge prison, there is only one jailer working conscientiously on patrol. This officer is really amazed."
Chen Guanlou suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
He doesn't need praise. The more you praise him, the more dangerous he feels.
Please, go investigate the case quickly.
"You are receiving a salary from the imperial court, but you gather people to gamble during your duty hours. The important task of inspecting the Tianlao is only entrusted to one person. It is simply ridiculous! Do you know your guilt?"
"Confessed! Please give me another chance, sir, and we will make corrections." Li Hu took the lead and said with fear and trembling in his voice.
"I have always believed in punishing past mistakes to avoid future ones. Those who make mistakes should be punished, and those who have made mistakes must be rewarded. But we must also give those who have made mistakes a chance to correct themselves."
When Li Hu and others heard this, they were filled with surprises. Is Mr. Sun going to let them go?
"But..." Sun Shilang made a twist, which made all the jailers' hearts rise again, "You jailers are the most vicious and despicable. They only have money in their eyes but no kindness. If you don't use thunderous means, you will I don't know what's good or bad at all. What's more, as far as I know, you are not the only one who is on duty tonight. At least half of the people on duty are not on duty, and only one person is doing his duty. It’s really breathtaking!”
The jailers were sweating profusely and almost died.
What does Sun Daoning mean? Do you want to kill all the guards in the C-shaped prison?
He also didn't think about how humble the job of a jailer was in the eyes of the world, and Liangjiazi would never take this job. That is to say, they are willing to take on this menial job, sharing the worries of Shangguan and the court.
As for money, if the jailers of Tianlao did not provide money and relied on the imperial government's allocation, Tianlao would have been unable to operate and would have gone bankrupt and closed its doors long ago.
There are hundreds of mouths in the Sky Prison to feed themselves. Just relying on funds from above, every prisoner in the Sky Prison will starve to death after nine meals in three days.
The good operation of the Tianlao is all due to the support of their jailers, who rely on the jailers to make money regardless of their reputation.
It can be said that the jailers of Tianlao paid an unprecedented price for the stability of the court and the good operation of the yamen. Isn't it natural to make some money?
Why are you enjoying the benefits brought by the jailers while despising them at the same time? Whenever something goes wrong, blame them.
Every jailer present was unconvinced.
Sun Daoning is a warrior and is not afraid of severe cold.
The jailers are just ordinary people. In the cold winter, they gamble and drink without closing the door. Are they going to freeze to death?
All the old jailers are sick. This disease is caused by the prison and the job of the jailer.
"Why, are you dissatisfied?"
"I dare not!" Li Hu was extremely obedient. At this time, he could only bow his head and admit his defeat, and he could not reason with the officials. The officials did not care about the thoughts of a small jailer at all, and it was impossible for them to understand the difficulties of the jailer.
How could a lowly person be compared with a dignified court official.
Chen Guanlou's heart was calm and there was no ripple. No matter what Sun Daoning said, he turned it into his left ear and out his right ear, and there was no movement in his heart.
He had seen the strength of a second-grade warrior.
As soon as he got excited, the other party could feel it instantly. If he was in a bad mood and pointed his finger, he would lose his head tonight.
He was very grateful for Li Hu's understanding. To serve an official, he naturally had to be humble and be a good grandson.
"Compared to those vacant jailers, you are barely acceptable."
Is he going to let them go?
The jailers regained hope.
"What's your name?"
Sun Daoning raised his chin slightly and stared at Chen Guanlou.
Chen Guanlou was a little confused. He was sure that the other party was asking him. He quickly replied: "My lord, my name is Chen Guanlou."
"Surname Chen! I heard before that there is a clan member in Pingjiang Marquis's Mansion who works in Tianlao. Could it be you?"
"My lord, my branch has been five generations away from the Marquis' Mansion since my father's generation." Chen Guanlou did not rush to make a relative with the Marquis' Mansion.
His situation is registered in the government office. Since Minister Sun asked, he must have known it clearly. If he dares to make a relative, he might get into trouble. It's better to tell the truth.
"I didn't expect that a descendant of a noble mansion would be reduced to being a lowly jailer. However, you are able to abide by your duties, which is great."
"Thank you, sir! I am just doing my duty."
