Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible

"I've said it all, no one instructed me to do this. My Lord, please don't be suspicious." Chen Guanlou clarified sincerely.

"You think I will believe you. As a member of the Chen family, you naturally work for the Chen family. Tell me, what did Chen Guanfu tell you, and what did he want me to do?" Jiang Tu insisted that all this was designed by Chen Guanfu. Chen Guanlou was just a mouthpiece.

Chen Guanlou: ...

It's normal for small people to be ignored and lack the right to speak.

He doesn't care.

He smiled, "Sir, I think you got one thing wrong. At the beginning, the Great Ming King was imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison. Without any external help, the Jia-shaped prison kept the Great Ming King alive by its own strength and held on until the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony. He eventually died in the explosion.

Sir, all your fears now come from someone trying to harm you. How to harm you is nothing more than taking your life. But don't forget, this is the Heavenly Prison, the Jia-shaped prison, and my territory. Whoever wants to take your life must first ask me if I agree, don't you think so?"

Jiang Tu narrowed his eyes and stared at him with some confusion, "Aren't you delivering a message for your Chen Guanfu?"

"Well, since the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony, I haven't seen Chen Guanfu or returned home. Where did the message come from? Besides, is it necessary for Chen Guanfu to deliver a message? Although the two families had some conflicts last year and some people died, everyone knows the reason. Don't worry, the Marquis' Mansion will not blame you."

Chen Guanlou's words of comfort did not comfort Jiang Tu.

Everyone can say nice words, how could he be fooled by just a few nice words.

He didn't believe there were such magnanimous people in the world. He was not a magnanimous person if he judged others by himself. If it were him, he would definitely add insult to injury and make his enemies die.

"How could Chen Guanfu not care? I made him lose so much face, even took out the little things at the bottom of the box, how could he not hate me. Chen Guanlou, why don't you just tell me what you want, and how does Chen Guanfu want to humiliate me?"

"Hey, the adults have too deep prejudices against the Chen family. Forget it, I won't talk to you about this. I just mean that I am a jailer here, I can keep you safe and prevent you from dying in the prison. The premise is that you have to be worth my life."

Chen Guanlou simply made it clear.

Otherwise, the other party kept guessing, sometimes Chen Guanfu, sometimes Sun Daoning... always suspected that he was passing on a message, and that there was something else in his words.

He did have some hidden meaning in his words, but he just wanted money.

Lord Jiang, can you please stop thinking too deeply, stop imagining, and stop imagining.

Such a simple money relationship, once imagined, turned into a treacherous court conspiracy struggle.

He is just a prison guard, is it worth it for him to participate in such a profound struggle? Isn't it good to make money and eat?

"How can it be worth saving your life?" Jiang Tu asked back.

Chen Guanlou was very confused.

No!

People say that Jiang Tu has a seven-hole mind and is best at guessing other people's thoughts. Often, before the old emperor speaks, he already knows what he means.

How come he has become stupid now, why can't he understand his implication?

He coughed lightly. Since he became a prison guard, he has become accustomed to speaking in a subtle way. Officials are all good at drawing inferences from one example, and often the other party will know what he means with just a hint from him. He hasn't mentioned the word money for a long time, and it's a bit dirty. It's really hypocritical! But he got used to and liked this kind of hypocrisy.

But it happened to Jiang Tu, this bastard, is he playing? He had to force him to make his words clear, and he didn't understand the rules of officialdom at all.

"Master Jiang, what do you think you have that is worth my life?"

"Me?" Jiang Tu's mind was in a mess. On ordinary days, he would have understood what Chen Guanlou meant. But now he couldn't help but think about it. Can a mere money make the top masters of the Chen family protect him?

Definitely not!

He clearly put himself in the shoes of Chen Guanlou. He believed that the other party didn't value money, but something more important.

"Can the prisoner Chen speak clearly?"

Chen Guanlou: ...

This is the first time I have met an official like a club.

He sighed and had to make a gesture of money.

Seeing this, Jiang Tu looked incredulous, "That's it?"

A mere money?

Chen Guanlou's face fell, and he said unhappily: "Master Jiang, what do you think our Tianlao is? If not this, could it be something else? What else do I care about?"

"You don't care?" Jiang Tu's cognition was refreshed again, "You are a member of the Chen family."

"The Chen family is the Chen family, and I am me. If Master Jiang is reluctant, just say so. From now on, we are not responsible for your life or death."

"No, no, no, I don't mean that at all. The prison guard Chen misunderstood. It's just that this matter is indeed a bit unbelievable, especially in the current situation. Last year, I just dealt with Chen Guanfu, and the two sides had a very unpleasant quarrel. Now it has fallen into your hands, it's just a little money, the prison guard Chen wants how much, just open your mouth, I'll give you a note, and you go to my house to find the housekeeper. Does the prison guard Chen really have no other requirements? Don't want to inquire about things, and don't want any tokens or the like?"

Jiang Tu was still worried.

To be precise, he didn't believe it.

How could things be so simple.

Just a few dollars can save your life, how can there be such a good thing in the world?

The other party is a member of the Chen family. Doesn't he have to stand up for the Chen family and do things for the Marquis' Mansion?

If the other party didn't lie to him, then he vaguely understood why the Marquis' Mansion would let Chen Guanlou continue to work in the Heavenly Prison.

This person is a man who does what he wants and doesn't obey discipline. If you want to use him, using power to suppress him is definitely the worst strategy.

After figuring out the key points, Jiang Tu became happy in an instant, and he wanted to hold Chen Guanlou's hands and call him brother, and everyone became brothers!

Chen Guanlou:...

After being in Tianlao for a long time, you can always realize the differences among human beings.

"You really won't harm me for Chen Guanfu?"

"No!" Chen Guanlou promised again and again. Unless Chen Guanfu gave too much.

"You really didn't do anything for the Hou Mansion?"

"I am a Tianlao man for the first day, and I will be a Tianlao man for the rest of my life, and I only work for the court." Chen Guanlou was righteous. Who I work for depends on who pays the highest price. If the Hou Mansion is willing to pay, killing Jiang Tu will be easy.

However, I think the Hou Mansion disdains to kill people, which is meaningless and will also cause a lot of trouble. It is better to let the imperial censors in the court deal with Jiang Tu.

"No one really ordered you to harm me secretly?"

"Not yet. If Lord Jiang gives more money than the people outside, we will definitely give priority to protecting you until we no longer need your protection."

"I will pay, I will definitely pay. My life is very valuable. Chen, the jailer, from now on, my safety depends on you. You must keep an eye on the A-shaped prison and don't let anyone take advantage of it. I tell you, this time, I may not die. No matter whether it is the new emperor or the old emperor, they all need people to make money. And I am a professional in making money."
