Chapter 32 Acquaintance
A woman who falls in love is very cute, but a woman who falls in love is also terrible.
Princess Jinde's roar shocked Chen Ke. It seemed that even if Chen Ying did not kill Sister Qin and the others, Princess Jinde would kill them, mother and son.
"Then you go to hell with me!"
Chen Ke clenched his fist and wanted to kill Princess Jinde with one punch.
"Who!"
The guards of the Princess Mansion came in a hurry and raised their crossbows at Chen Ke.
"Consort!"
Some of the guards knew Chen Ying, and when they saw that familiar face, they were frightened with a tragic look on their faces. Even the soldiers on the battlefield were still frightened when they saw a man with his head cut off alive in front of everyone.
He was so scared that his face turned pale.
"Fire the arrow!"
Regardless of whether the consort is a human or a ghost, protecting the princess is the most important thing.
Chen Ke didn't hesitate when he saw this and took the initiative to break the blinding spell.
"Bang."
Like a blown air bag exploding, a puff of white smoke appeared throughout the mourning hall, and then arrows were shot in the direction where Chen Ke was standing.
"Protect the princess!"
The guards shouted and ran quickly towards Princess Kinde.
When the fog dissipated, Chen Ke's figure was no longer in the mourning hall. Princess Jinde was a little dumbfounded. She looked at the place where Chen Ying's ghost disappeared, with confusion in her eyes.
"Why are you doing this to me? What did I do wrong? What is there to cherish about a country woman? What about a child? I can give birth to it!"
Princess Jinde looked into the distance. After she regained her composure, she said coldly: "I am going to see the Holy Master."
"Princess, we haven't determined whether the person just now is a ghost. For the sake of safety..." a guard said.
Princess Jinde looked cold and said slowly: "I don't need it. No matter he is the real ghost of the consort or someone is playing tricks, as long as he dares to show up again, I will keep him!"
"Yes!" The guard immediately prepared his car to escort Princess Jinde to Ansheng Palace.
Chen Ke followed the way he came in and dug out of the princess's mansion. He was almost there. If the guards of the princess's mansion hadn't come with a crossbow, he could have punched the princess to death and asked her to go underground to apologize to Sister Qin!
"What a pity!"
Chen Ke walked along the street towards the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen.
I missed it this time, but there will be another time. Princess Jinde will be there and will not escape. Chen Ke thought that as long as he became a practitioner and entered the realm of Qi refining mentioned by the teacher, then he could use Longtu
In the name of killing Princess Jinde.
"I need Master Long to explain this matter clearly."
Chen Ke walked into the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen.
In the back hall, after listening to Chen Ke's questioning of Princess Jinde, Long Tu frowned and said, "You went to assassinate Princess Jinde?"
Chen Ke shook his head and said: "There was no assassination. I just used some blinding magic to find out who killed Xiaobao! It turned out to be a poisonous woman like her! Sir, please send someone to catch her."
"Chen Ke, we can't just arrest people based on your remarks. Everything needs evidence, especially the royal princess. She is not Chen Ying, so we can't just do it casually. We need conclusive evidence before we can try her!
"
Long Tu said earnestly, even if he is in charge of criminal cases, he cannot deal with a regent princess at will!
"Why?" Chen Ke asked.
Long Tu said slowly with an extremely expression on his face: "Because they are the king's law, they stand above the law! They cannot be tortured, or even have to be merciful outside the law. These are the regulations written in the law, and they cannot be punished.
Revise."
Just like murder, if common people kill someone, it is a capital crime. If a royal family kills someone, they can avoid death by paying money!
Chen Ke looked surprised and said, "Why is this so?"
Long Tu said slowly: "Because they are the ones who made the law, and they will leave a way out for themselves and their descendants."
"Why is there such a law? Isn't it that the emperor breaks the law and the common people are equally guilty?" Chen Ke said in a deep voice.
Long Tu smiled: "That's just a lie to children, do you believe it? Even if my government breaks the law, it will not be the same crime as the common people. The punishment will not be as good as that of a doctor. You can't even imagine such a thing."
"What is the significance of the existence of the law?" Chen Ke asked.
Long Tu chuckled, pointed outside and said: "It is to better rule the world. However, I will find a balance between stabilizing the country and following justice."
After listening to Long Tu's story, Chen Ke felt like he had seen a new world. It couldn't be said to be a new world, but the nature of the world. It turned out to be so ridiculous.
"Master Long, does our agreement yesterday still count?" Chen Ke asked.
He and Long Tu agreed to strictly investigate Princess Jinde, but he didn't know if Long Tu would still check her.
Long Tu said: "Yes, but it will take time, even more time than the Cha'an Holy Palace. Moreover, once the emperor opens his mouth and pardons Princess Jinde's death penalty, there is nothing we can do. Therefore, you need to become a practitioner to execute the laws of heaven and earth."
justice!"
The emperor can kill a concubine, but that is just an outsider. Although the emperor and Princess Jinde are fighting inextricably, as long as the Queen Mother is alive, the emperor will still give the queen mother face and will not really kill Princess Jinde.
After a rigorous investigation, it may be that Princess Jinde's power was exchanged for Princess Jinde's life.
Long Tu had been in the officialdom for a long time and had already guessed the final result. He just didn't tell Chen Ke, for fear of hitting Chen Ke and driving him into madness, and he desperately went to assassinate Princess Jinde.
Chen Ke will become a wanted criminal and be arrested by the court. This is not what Long Tu wants to see, so he can only slowly appease Chen Ke.
Give Chen Ke a condition that he cannot fulfill, and let time wear away Chen Ke's passion and youthful frivolity!
"I'm waiting for that day!"
Chen Ke resigned and went to his yamen to serve as his guard.
Long Tu looked at Chen Ke leaving and sighed slightly: "I hope you can be a righteous man instead of a madman who is forced to die!"
Half an hour later, a guard came from outside. He came to Chen Ke and said, "Guard Chen, why are you still here guarding the prison?"
Chen Ke asked: "My duty is to guard the prison!"
The officer didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this, and said: "Yesterday, your Majesty was promoted to a third-class guard in front of the palace. Your current rank is higher than that of Guard Zhang, who is only a fifth-class guard."
"That's it." Chen Ke understood somewhat, but Lord Long did not arrange other tasks for him.
"What should I do?" Chen Ke asked.
The officer took Chen Ke to the house on the other side and said: "You are sitting in the hall now and do not need to be on duty. The front secretary is the palace guard. You are now the palace guard lent to you by His Majesty. You do not need to be on duty, sir."
If necessary, I will summon you."
Chen Ke thought for a moment and asked, "How much is the salary per month for a third-class palace guard?"
Difference said: "I don't know about this, but Guard Zhang is a fifth-class guard, and he earns five taels of silver a month!"
"Five taels!" Chen Ke's eyes flashed, "The fifth grade is five taels, so my third grade is also seven taels."
The officer looked at Chen Ke and felt that it was very strange. Although everyone was happy to be promoted and get rich, it was a bit too much for you to be expressionless when you were promoted and to hear that your salary sounded like money.
"Guard Chen, of course there will be. I will take you to your guard house. If nothing happens, you can rest there. If something happens, someone will summon you." Difeng said with a smile.
Although Chen Ke likes money, Chen Ke's strength is real. He dared to kill the consort Chen Ying in front of the Queen Mother and Princess Jinde, as well as the immortal master of An Sheng Palace.
The entire yamen of Jingzhao Mansion admired Chen Ke very much, especially the emperor who promoted Chen Ke to the third-class bodyguard on the spot, which made the yamen even more admired Chen Ke.
Many government officials who knew Chen Ke had already begun to get close to Chen Ke and curry favor with Chen Ke. They were favored by the emperor and would not be promoted easily in the future.
We came to a simple little house, two feet long and one foot wide. There was a table inside, and behind it was a bookcase with several books.
"Chen Wewei, this will be your office from now on. Please take care of your brothers." The difference took out a jade gourd from his sleeve and stuffed it into Chen Ke's hand.
"Old Sun and our brothers pooled their money to buy it. I wish you a good promotion and don't dislike it," he said with a smile.
Chen Ke took a look. He didn't want to accept the gift. Just when he was about to refuse, the door opened and Zhang Huwei came in with a bandage around his waist. Seeing the difference, he gave Chen Ke a gift. Especially Chen Ke's hesitant look, Zhang Huwei laughed.
Said: "Take it."
When he saw this, he smiled at Guard Zhang, then turned around and ran out.
"Why?" Chen Ke looked puzzled, "Although I love money, I get it in a wise way and don't want to be a corrupt person."
Zhang Huwei said: "If he asks you to do something with money, you can make a choice. You are promoted today, and they are worried that you are trying to trick them. The gift they gave you is a peace charm. If you don't accept it, they will have to do something in the future.
Be cautious, maybe they will keep an eye on you, look for your mistakes, and prevent you from deliberately finding trouble with them!"
Chen Ke said unexpectedly: "Is there such a thing?"
Zhang Huwei said: "The Yamen is the largest ruling place in the government. There are many secrets here. Even Mr. Long is unavoidable. However, you have to clearly distinguish what should be taken and what should not be taken. This kind of gift will be used by them in the future."
If you get promoted, just buy another one and send it back."
After hearing this, Chen Ke said: "Thank you, Brother Zhang, for your advice."
"Haha, I don't dare to give advice to Mr. Chen. You are now a seventh-grade military attache, and I am a fifth-class guard from the sixth grade!" Zhang Weiwei laughed.
Chen Ke knew that Zhang Huwei was joking, so he didn't care. Zhang Huwei also helped him a lot. Chen Ke would not ignore his old friends after being promoted.
"Brother Zhang, why did you come to see me?" Chen Ke asked.
Zhang Huwei said with a strange look on his face: "I know a friend and heard about you. He said he is from your hometown. He has a banquet tonight and invites you over."
"The entire Shanyin County is affected by floods. I don't have any fellow villagers. I've admitted the wrong person, so I won't go." Chen Ke refused.
Zhang Huwei said: "His name is Gu Yuanjiang, do you recognize him?"
