Marquis Nanshan was full of resentment.

In front of Chen Guanlou, he vented his anger wantonly.

He is not afraid of Chen Guanlou snitching. He has also heard of the other party's reputation and knows that the other party is a trustworthy person and never talks nonsense.

The most important thing is that the other party has been working in Tianlao for so many years, and there has never been a single reporting incident.

This is very critical and very important.

What does this mean?

It shows that Chen Guanlou is not only strict with his mouth, but also very particular about his work. Things inside Tianlao are never spread to the outside world, they can be talked about casually and freely.

It is said that Jiang Tu died in Tianlao. Before his death, he said many treacherous words and even revealed the truth about the altar bombing. After so many years, I still haven't heard anything.

The rumors floating around outside are all conjectures, none of which came from Tianlao.

Therefore, Nanshan Hou did not hide his inner anger in front of Chen Guanlou, nor did he hide his strong dissatisfaction with the royal family and the emperor.

"No matter how dissatisfied you are, now that you are in jail, you should think about how to get through this." Chen Guanlou suggested with conscience.

When Emperor Jianshi issued an order to arrest people years ago, he showed that he was very anxious, even a little impatient. This is the posture of wanting to take out something from the Nanshan Marquis Mansion.

"I don't know!" Marquis Nanshan looked anxious and angry. "Chen Yuucheng, can you give me a hint or a direction? I would be very grateful."

"The Marquis has embarrassed me. I am a small jailer, how can I be involved in such a big thing. Let me help you analyze it. Why do you think His Majesty is so anxious to arrest people?"

"I don't know! As long as I know something, I won't be like a headless fly and have no idea at all. I also want to pass the test, but I am confused about what this test is. You said How do I break through?”

"I think what happened this time cannot be separated from the Yu Dynasty, right?"

Nanshan Houfu nodded and agreed very much, "But I really don't know anything about the Dayu Dynasty."

"You don't need to emphasize the fact that you don't know. I think the palace must also know that asking you won't find anything useful. So, you should carefully consider your family's belongings. Is there anything that is inconspicuous, but may contain something Insider stuff.”

"Impossible!" Marquis Nanshan denied. "If such a gadget really existed, in your words, it would have been created eight hundred years ago. It would have been impossible to wait until today."

"Are you sure that everything in your house was purchased in the past one or two hundred years and is new? There is not even one thing that was passed down from the Yu Dynasty?" Chen Guanlou asked.

For a family that has been passed down for hundreds of years, there must be some old items in the house. If you really can't explain anything useful, you might as well just use old objects instead. Maybe you have a chance to muddle through, and at least you can save your life.

Marquis Nanshan got the hint and began to think about it, "Today, the Ministry of Punishment raided the house. You can ask the Ministry of Punishment whether they found several inkstones, several brush washers, and some tables, chairs, benches and beds. Several of them were handed down from ancestors. Specific details. You can let people take a look at the year it was passed down. As for the other items, let alone mention them, they are all new items purchased in the past one or two hundred years.

To be honest with Chen Yucheng, as early as the reign of Taizu, my ancestors had confessed everything that should be explained to them, and handed over everything that should be handed over. Basically, the furnishings at home have been changed three or four times. If there really were any old objects hiding secrets, it stands to reason that they should have been discovered long ago. "

Chen Guanlou believed that Marquis Nanshan was not lying.

The other party has no business lying about this kind of thing.

No need!

When it comes to matters of wealth and life, no one dares to be careless.

If he really wants to hide some secret, looking at Nanshan Hou's expression, he would like to dig it out and hand it over in person. From now on, the world will be vast and the sky will be vast, and he will no longer have to worry about it.

"Are there any other inconspicuous objects? Which generation of your ancestors is the wisest and is recognized as the most capable?"

"Why did Chen Yuucheng ask this?" Marquis Nanshan was very curious.

Chen Guanlou thought while explaining: "The palace is convinced that there is something in your house. Hundreds of years have passed, and they still believe so. It is estimated that there may be something in your house, but you don't know. Maybe your ancestors knew, But it was hidden by your ancestors.”

"Impossible! My ancestors couldn't harm us like this! Chen Yuucheng, your speculation is baseless."

"You're right! There is indeed no basis. But do you want to pass the test? Since we want to, we have to strip the cocoon and eliminate all possibilities. No matter how unbelievable the final answer is, there is a certain probability that it is the correct answer. According to this Thinking about it, it’s okay to question your ancestors.”

Marquis Nanshan was speechless.

The expression is so hard to describe in words.

"My ancestors deliberately harmed their descendants, for what purpose? Everyone is dead, and everything disappears after death. It doesn't make sense!" Marquis Nanshan could not convince himself to accept Chen Guanlou's statement.

"What if, what if it's possible that your ancestors found out the secret? It's so important that you don't dare to make it public, and you don't dare to tell future generations. You can only swallow it alone and take it into the coffin board? But, when Many years later, the palace learned about this 'in case' from other sources. Do you think this is possible?"

Marquis Nanshan almost cried to death!

It’s not fun to speculate on this kind of thing!

It will be fatal.

But he still tried to follow the other party's thinking, pondered it carefully, and said: "If we really want to say which ancestor is the wisest and most capable, it must be the great-great-grandfather Maogong! He has been the head of the family for 30 years. According to the family tree, he has also served in the army, led soldiers, and has been on the battlefield. He has also served as the Minister of War and the Ministry of Works. He is much better than me, a useless descendant."

"Then is it possible that your great-great-grandfather knows something and hides it."

"I don't know. According to your thinking, Chen Yucheng, if someone in my ancestor really discovered the secret hidden by the family and further hid it, I think only the great-great-grandfather Maogong has the ability to do it. Other ancestors, hey, are similar to me, with no ability and timidity. Hiding secrets? I'm afraid they will be discovered before they can hide them."

Nanshan Hou laughed at himself and seemed discouraged. He believed that Chen Guanlou's thinking was wrong. He only cooperated in order to find a way out and to get through the current level.

"Has your great-grandfather's tomb been robbed?" Chen Guanlou suddenly changed the subject and asked a very sensitive and humiliating question.

These days, tomb robbing is equivalent to a curse. Asking whether the ancestral tomb has been robbed is humiliating.

Nanshan Hou's eyes widened and he was dumbfounded, as if he had suffered a great humiliation.

"Chen Yucheng, how can you..."

"I'm not humiliating you, I'm talking to you about serious matters and saving your life." Chen Guanlou decisively interrupted the other party to avoid a useless argument.
