"In a year at most, he should be promoted."

Hearing this, Chen Wanjin smiled: "Really?"

"Of course." Guan Ning said with a smile.

Chen Wanjin was relieved after hearing this: "It's all because of you that he is where he is today."

"Then how do you thank me?" Guan Ning was not modest and started a dirty conversation directly.

Chen Wanjin's face flushed red.

"How can I thank you?"

"Hehe, that's a lot." Guan Ning smiled slyly and picked the man up by the waist.

Chen Wanjin was shy and wanted to accept and reject, but finally gave in to Guan Ning.

After a romantic night, Chen Wanjin's complexion was radiant the next day. Anyone who knew the situation could tell at a glance that she was a woman who had just been in love.

Guan Ning got up very early, had breakfast with Chen Wanjin, and then went out again.

Along the way, the ladies and servants greeted him one after another, and he responded one by one, always with a smile on his face, and never put pressure on them.

The birds are singing, the autumn wind is blowing, the family is quiet, and the servants are coming and going. The morning is beautiful. This is the meaning of Guan Ning's struggle, to give them a piece of pure land.

At the gate, the imperial guards led by Yuwen Hongdu had already been waiting there.

As soon as he saw Guan Ning coming out, he immediately tilted the carriage.

"Master Guan, this is your official uniform."

Guan Ning was stunned for a moment. He was still wearing an official uniform. He was a little surprised. After all, he was just a temporary imperial envoy and didn't even need to attend court.

"Your Majesty gave it to me?"

Yuwen Hongdu nodded: "Your Majesty already knows what happened yesterday."

Guan Ning raised his eyebrows. He knew about it but still gave him the imperial envoy's uniform. This was a hint of support.

He couldn't help but laugh. This old emperor was definitely a man of great attainments, far from being as simple as others thought. By recruiting the third prince to the capital, both the court and the people felt that he had a chance of becoming emperor, but the old emperor probably knew better than anyone what kind of person his son was and what the situation in the court was.

He took it in one hand.

"Let's go to the clan residence!"

"The Imperial Clan House?" Yuwen Hongdu raised his voice, as if to confirm.

"Yes, it's the clan house." Guan Ning got into the carriage and disappeared.

Yuwen Hongdu frowned. Where to go?

He asked while he ordered the sedan chair to be lifted and rode beside him.

"Master Guan, where are you going and what are you doing? Investigating a case?"

"Correct."

"But that is the Ministry of Clan Affairs, which is different from other places. It belongs to the royal family. If it is like the Ministry of Justice, it will be even more difficult to deal with." It can be seen that Yuwen Hongdu is a little in awe of the place.

Guan Ning said calmly, "What are you afraid of? We are investigating the case normally. What does it matter if it comes from the clan affairs office?"

"What if the clan office itself is implicated in a corruption case?"

Yuwen Hongdu was startled!

Is the Imperial Clan Court involved in a corruption case?

He didn't even dare to ask, so he simply kept quiet. After all, Guan Ning was the imperial envoy, and he was only responsible for assisting him. If anything happened, Guan Ning would be the one to take responsibility.

An hour later, after passing through the bustling and prosperous streets of Beijing, we arrived!

The three large characters "Zongrenfu" written in flowing strokes are clearly visible!

Guan Ning had seen these three words on TV countless times, but when he actually saw them, he had a different feeling.

Solemn and deserted are the words that describe this place.

Compared to the Heavenly Prison, this place is obviously much more upscale and luxurious.

Compared to the imperial palace, this place seems too lifeless.

Guan Ning couldn't find an appropriate word to describe it, but he knew that this was a place that many princes, emperors, and princesses trembled with fear.

This place is like the Yiting Palace. Few people can leave once they come here, and those who can leave are almost useless.

Upon learning that the imperial envoy and the palace guards were coming, the top officials of the Ministry of Clan Affairs were immediately alarmed.

The sound of dense footsteps was heard, and a large number of people rushed out. The leader was a man wearing a green official robe with gold thread inlaid on the cuffs. There was a royal nobility in his every move. His brows were very broad, giving people a feeling of being tough and upright.

As soon as he came out, his eyes were fixed on Guan Ning, and then he bowed in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Master Guan."

Guan Ning said, "I presume you are the Junior Minister of the Imperial Clan Bureau, Li Yunzong, Lord Li, right?"

"Exactly."

"I wonder why Lord Guan is visiting today?" Li Yunzong went straight to the point. He had already heard about the matter, especially the matter of the Ministry of Justice, so he naturally thought that Guan Ning was here to cause trouble.
