"Why don't you go out and take a look quickly." She said in a domineering tone.

Guan Ning was reluctant: "Wait for me, don't run!"

When Lou Xinyue heard this, she almost laughed out of anger. "You're not allowed to run away. This bastard will only behave himself if he's hung on the wall."

Guan Ning quickly put on his clothes and walked out.

In the yard with falling leaves, singing birds and fragrant flowers, Shengqi was already spinning around anxiously.

"What's wrong? What's the matter? Why are you so anxious?" Guan Ning walked over quickly.

"Sir!"

"problem occurs!"

Guan Ning's face darkened.

"Just now, I was protecting Madam Cao as she went out to buy cloth. On the way, I heard someone say that a major case had occurred at the Censorate today. Someone bribed an official position for a sum of three thousand taels of gold. His Majesty was furious and ordered a thorough investigation."

"Chen Tu is on the list!"

"They said Chen Tu was the mastermind and committed corruption, and he has been sent to the Ministry of Justice!" Shengqi's voice was extremely anxious.

boom!

These words were like a thunderclap, which directly split Guan Ning's good mood and calmness.

"What did you say?"

"Chen Tu is corrupt?!"

"That's right!" Shengqi's face looked grim.

"Isn't this bullshit! How could Chen Tu be corrupt?" Guan Ning cursed. He immediately felt that something was wrong and rushed out without saying a word.

"Don't follow me anymore. Go and block the news immediately. Don't let Wanjin from the inner courtyard know about this!"

"Yes!"

Soon, Lou Xinyue also heard about this matter and followed out. Together with Guan Ning, they rushed to the Ministry of Justice as quickly as possible.

The so-called Ministry of Justice is the place that manages all criminal laws in the world. Generally speaking, those who are sent here are guilty of serious crimes. Ordinary crimes cannot be brought here and are all handled by local government offices.

Outside the huge black-painted bronze door, there are two pots of blazing flames, and two stone lions on the left and right sides, which are indescribably majestic.

"stop!"

"This is the Ministry of Justice's important territory, who dares to trespass!" the officers and soldiers shouted and raised their spears in unison.

Guan Ning stopped, took out a piece of gold from his waist, and handed it to the officers and soldiers without leaving any trace.

"Brother, my family is locked up inside. Please do me a favor and let me go in to visit them."

The officers and soldiers were shocked and their eyes lit up when they saw the gold.

Guan Ning struck while the iron was hot and said, "Don't worry, I know all the rules. I'll only be in there for a quarter of an hour, talk to him, and then I'll be out."

"Please, gentlemen, please give me some convenience."

The officer hesitated for a moment, weighed the gold, and then looked at Guan Ning: "You look polite and respectful, so you are not a bad person."

"Then you can go in, but as promised, you only have a quarter of an hour."

Guan Ning grinned: "Thank you."

"By the way, who do you want to see?" The officer had turned around and gave his companion a look, indicating that he should make way.

This is how the money comes for those who do this job. Generally speaking, it is okay to just go in and take a look. After all, the Ministry of Justice is an important place, and no one would be so brave as to steal people.

Guan Ning said: "Chen Tu."

As soon as these words were spoken, the officers and soldiers stopped in their tracks.

"Chen Tu?"

"The Chen Tu from the Censorate?"

Guan Ning frowned: "Yes."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier!" The soldier was furious and stuffed the money back.

"I can't do this, take the money back!"

"go!"

His attitude changed 180 degrees, which made Guan Ning and Lou Xinyue feel depressed.

"Brother, I just went in to take a look. No one knows about it. Could it be that someone else has done something wrong?"

"At worst, I can give you some more?" Guan Ning tried and took out another whole bag of gold beans.

This number is enough to make the devil push the mill.

"Go away, go away!"

"If you don't get out of here, don't blame me for being ruthless!" The officers and soldiers cursed loudly, looking extremely fearful.

Guan Ning held the purse tightly, his face gloomy, and without saying anything, he turned and left.

The reactions of the officers and soldiers speak for themselves.

After walking a few steps out.

Lou Xinyue asked worriedly, "What should we do now?"

"To pay so much money and not even be able to meet is unheard of."

Guan Ning turned around and gave the Ministry of Justice a deep look.

He blurted out, "Chen Tu can't possibly be corrupt. There's something fishy about this. I suspect someone in the Ministry of Justice has tipped off Chen Tu, and he's been given special attention."

"What do you mean?" Lou Xinyue frowned.

"I'm not sure yet. Let's go to the Xiao family."

"Uncle Xiao must know something." Guan Ning said.
