Chapter 793

Xiao Jin smiled contentedly.

He had a tangled expression of wanting to show off but wanting to be restrained, wanting to appear calm but also eager to let people know that he had made the acquaintance of a noble person.

"Tell me! Why are you embarrassed? It's a good thing to get to know a noble person. How many people want to get to know a noble person but haven't had the chance. Tell me which house you belong to. Do I recognize him?"

"I don't know if the adults know him, but I must have heard that person's name."

"Oh! Let me guess, could it be from your family, Mr. Xiao Chang?"

ah?

Xiao Jin looked inexplicably surprised, and his expression looked shocked, "Have you known this for a long time?"

"How could that be possible! Just now, I was lucky enough to make a casual guess, and I didn't expect that I guessed it right. Isn't it really Xiao Changsheng? Your kid actually met Xiao Changsheng. Tell me quickly, how did you meet him? As His Majesty, Can the beloved minister in front of me surrender? It seems that the rumors outside are not true, and Xiao Changsheng is not as bad as the rumors say. "

Chen Guanlou looked like a gossip lover, urging Xiao Jin to reveal more truth.

Xiao Jin wanted to show off, but he had to be deep and reserved, and said vaguely: "Master Xiao is really different from the rumors outside. It's a coincidence that I know him. We both have the surname Xiao, and the ancestors of our two families are actually the same." There is a connection. I only found out after asking the elders in the clan.”

Chen Guanlou was very surprised, "You are related by clan?"

"No, no, it's not to that point. We have an ancestral connection because our ancestors came from the same place. It's just different ancestors."

"Then we should form a clan relationship."

"That's so embarrassing. I'm just a jailer, so I don't dare to climb high." Xiao Jin waved his hands repeatedly. He said he was embarrassed, but his eyes revealed longing.

Chen Guanlou said bewilderedly: "You can ask him to change your job to a job with a more promising future. Now you can also read and write. Although you are not as good as a serious scholar, writing and reading ordinary official documents is not a problem. It is absolutely fine. If you find an easy job in the yamen, your status will be improved, and it will be a matter of course for you to get married in the future. "

Xiao Jin was obviously moved, and Brick added: "Don't worry, sir. I'm just willing to work as an errand in Tianlao and follow you forever."

"Don't, don't, don't! If you have a better future, I will only be happy for you. How can I stop you from making progress. Being a jailer, apart from a little money, has no future and a low status. People outside say that being a jailer is a cheap job. There is some truth in this statement. Now that you have met a noble person, if the noble person is willing to support you, you must seize the opportunity and don't delay your future by hesitating."

"Sir, do you really support me?"

"Of course. You guys were brought out by me. I only hope that all of you will have a bright future and prove that I have a vision. Haha..."

He smiled heartily, and Xiao Jin also laughed. The atmosphere was cheerful and harmonious.

Not a word was mentioned about the Tianlao, let alone the death of Ma Man and the others. The whole process was spent talking about Xiao Changsheng, and incidentally, about Concubine Xiao in the palace.

We chatted for a while, nothing else, and drank tea until I was half full.

Afterwards, Medical Officer Mu asked him, "How was it? Did you have anything to talk about?"

"Lick the dog!" Chen Guanlou said in two words, "Xiao Changsheng gave him a smile and licked it himself. I completely forgot how jealous and insulting he was at the beginning. As for why Xiao Changsheng thought he recognized Xiao Jin. We haven’t figured it out yet, but Xiao Jin is not the one who poisoned it, but it has something to do with him.”

"How are you sure?"

"intuition!"

Chen Guanlou's words were concise and concise, and Medical Officer Mu was stunned.

"You rely on intuition to decide the case. You are really... I see, if you can't find it, then don't investigate it. For such a big case, you can silence the criminals from the Ministry of Works in one go. It's obvious that it has a lot of background."

"I know where they came from. I just want to find the end of this line. I want to find out the ghost hidden inside the A-shaped prison!"

It's really annoying to kill someone right under his nose.

"Who are they from?"

"Who else could it be? It's just a few heads from the Ministry of Works, or the gang of gods and ghosts from the Qintian Prison, or the gang of worms from the Ministry of Punishment who collect people's money to ward off disasters." Chen Guanlou said casually. With.

Medical Officer Mu's face changed uncertainly, "The Ministry of Punishment did not pursue the case. It was obviously because they were ordered to do so. Someone gave the Ministry of Punishment a hush-hush order. Who among the Ministry of Works and Qintian Prison has the ability to issue a hush-hush order to the Ministry of Punishment? I'm afraid it's not someone from the palace. people."

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly, and he suddenly remembered that not long ago, the chief steward said that he wanted to share Sun Daoning's worries and mingle with each other. Could it be that from then on...

"Wait a minute, there's another person I haven't investigated yet."

"Who?" Medical Officer Mu was curious. There are still fish that have slipped through the net.

"My clan brother Chen Guanxu."

"You doubt him?"

"I suspect everyone. I don't think anyone looks like a good person." Chen Guanlou said with a straight face.

Looking for Chen Guanxu but Chen Quan is of no use.

Fortunately, he has been working in Tianlao for so many years, and he has not worked in vain, and he has some friendship with the gangsters in the logistics. Besides, there is Medical Officer Mu by his side.

Medical Officer Mu is more familiar with the logistics staff and has a good relationship with them.

After all, the cost of medicinal materials is huge, and there is a lot of money. This thing is not easy to check. The prisoners' food is rationed, but the amount of medicinal materials is not rationed.

There are more or less medicinal materials, good or bad, all depends on the mouths of those turtles. Medical Officer Mu is a good person who won't offend anyone. Naturally, he will turn a blind eye and will never expose the other party.

"Old Mu, my brothers from that clan, I leave it to you. Find someone to help me ask questions."

"Why don't you just ask?" Medical Officer Mu was not very happy. He doesn't really want to do anything to offend others.

"How can I ask about something without evidence? Do I still want to be a human being? My surname is Chen, from the Chen family. As long as I don't come forward, he and I are still brothers. If I come forward, I must have solid evidence. It’s convenient for me to fall out.”

Medical Officer Mu was speechless, "Do you really doubt him? This doesn't make sense. He is a logistician and has never been to prison. How is that possible?"

"Why is it impossible?" Chen Guanlou sneered, "To poison, you don't have to do it yourself. Of course, I am just guessing, maybe I am wrong."

"I must have guessed wrong!" Medical Officer Mu said firmly. Although he was not happy, he still agreed to Chen Guanlou's request to help find someone to investigate and ask sideways questions.

Afterwards, Chen Guanlou approached Lu Datou and asked him to mobilize his contacts and inquire about Chen Guanxu's whereabouts in the past few days. Especially the whereabouts of Maman and the others before their death.

"This matter must be kept secret and cannot be told to anyone else. The person you find must be honest and smart, and don't shout about anything. I will check on my brothers. If this matter spreads, I will not find anyone. I will I’m looking for you specifically and dealing with you specifically.”

Lu Datou patted his chest and promised that he would handle the matter properly and find out Chen Guanxu's whereabouts in the past few days.
