"Yes, yes, I'm the shopkeeper, but I'm just in charge of the business here, and our backstage boss is ......" Before he finished speaking, Chen Jiu shouted: "Come on, buckle up this shopkeeper, and also, bring back the corpse of this purchase, take the chef in the kitchen away, the hotel is sealed first, no one is allowed to come in without my warrant." ”

Chen Jiu didn't give the shopkeeper a chance to explain, so he issued a series of orders, in order to prevent him from saying Uncle Li Guo, leaving room for future maneuvers, the shopkeeper still wanted to explain, Chen Jiu had already followed the eunuch, took off his chin, and now he couldn't say a word, he was taken outside by the eunuchs, and the chefs in the kitchen were also brought out, and a few eunuchs found one. The door slammed and carried the corpse out of the house, and the few little eunuchs who came with it, whether they were uncomfortable or not, also brought them outside the hotel.

The eunuchs of the East Factory here were also very fast, and after a while, they 'got' all the cooks outside, and tied them up, and in order to prevent them from screaming, they all took off their jaws like the shopkeepers. There are two or three little eunuchs who came with the procurement, and they were also helped outside by the eunuchs of the East Factory, and the smell of the whole body was so smoky that everyone couldn't stand it, fortunately, it was winter, and after wearing the 'pants', the 'urine' that was pulled out was not so much that it would flow out, and if it was summer, it would be lively.

Chen Jiu looked at it, and a seal was also pasted on the big 'door' of the restaurant, leaving two eunuchs to guard here, and took the eunuchs and those cooks, as well as the corpses of the purchasers, and returned to the palace in a mighty 'swing''.

Chen Jiu and they just left not long ago, the hot Shuntianfu messenger also came, as soon as I heard that there was an accident on the first floor, who is not in a hurry, this is Uncle Li's territory, if something happens, it will be a big trouble, and Uncle Li usually gives them benefits, don't look at Uncle Li through the brand of the emperor's relatives, but the ya'door still has to be dotted.

But they were still a step late, and when they reached the first floor, the building was empty, and only two eunuchs from Dongchang were guarding the restaurant. ”

"Well, you're late, the case here involves the palace. The person has been taken away by our chief manager, if you want someone, go to the East Factory, the two of us are just ordered to guard the scene. After the eunuch of Dongchang finished speaking, he no longer bothered with them.

The foreman who took the lead, when he saw this, knew that he couldn't afford to mess with Dongchang, and he didn't want to ask anything, so he didn't dare to leave. Because they know that such a big thing happened, Uncle Li Guo, the owner of the restaurant, is

They will definitely come forward, if they leave, Uncle Li Guo will definitely blame them if he can't come to see them, and he will still be a scapegoat at that time, there is no way, the foreman of the official has to let everyone wait in place.

After waiting for a while, I saw Uncle Li Guo hurriedly come to the restaurant with his proud son, and when he got off the sedan chair, he saw that the building was sealed, and he was furious.

The two eunuchs of Dongchang were not afraid, but the foreman of the official hurriedly went over to offer courtesy: "Master Hou, you are finally here, we are a step late, this restaurant has been sealed by Dongchang, what do you think about this?" ”

Uncle Li Guo didn't answer, he went straight to the 'door' of the restaurant, tore off the seal on it, and said viciously to the two Dongchang eunuchs: "You two eunuchs who have no eggs, go back and tell Chen Jiu that he doesn't want to live if he dares to seal my restaurant." ”

The two eunuchs are Chen Jiu's henchmen, Chen Jiu left to 'handover' them, just to 'provoke' Uncle Li Guo and make things bigger, although Uncle Li Guo opened the big 'door' of the restaurant, but it stinked inside, he would go in there, and said to the dozens of family members who followed: "You all go in, clean the restaurant for me, and continue to open tomorrow." ”

Don't look at Uncle Li Guo to go in, the two eunuchs didn't dare to stop it, but these family members are different, the family members came to the 'door', they were stopped by the two of them, one of them said: "This is the scene of the crime, no one can go in." ”

Uncle Li, who was furious, ate this set there, and instructed his family: "Give me these two eggless ones to take away." ”

Originally, when these family members came, although they didn't bring weapons, they all brought sticks and other things, and as soon as they heard the order from Uncle Guo, the guys beckoned to the two eunuchs together.

The two eunuchs did not fight back, let them beat, just held their heads, and did not let the sticks and 'sticks' hit their heads, and after a while the two eunuchs lay on the ground holding their heads and did not move. Those family members also stopped the stick, looked at Uncle Li Guo and asked, "Is Master Hou still fighting?" ”

"Don't fight, you hurry up and go in and clean it up for me, and then go to the kitchen, and call a few chefs in the house, this place can't be closed, let Chen Jiu see who is powerful."

Let's not mention that Uncle Li Guo is here to make a big fuss, Chen Jiu, who returned to the palace, after taking the prisoner into custody, hurriedly came to the Qianqing Palace, Chen Jiu also knew the truth that the wicked sue first, then Uncle Li Guo is through the sky, he has to be preconceived, let the emperor take the idea.

Emperor Mu Zong in the Qianqing Palace, who was looking at the excerpts there, since the last time he was poisoned, he listened to my advice, and no longer spoiled the 'female' people uncontrollably, and most of the time he was watching the excerpts and dealing with state affairs.

After Chen Jiu's request for peace was finished, Emperor Mu Zong asked, "Chen Jiu, looking at your hurried appearance, is something happening again?" ”

"Your Majesty, the slave does have something to report."

"Say, don't spit out, I'm still busy."

"Your Majesty, my father-in-law, who was inspecting at noon today, found a case on the first floor, and the procurement manager in our palace died there, and the slave received the report and immediately went to the first floor and brought the prisoner and the corpse to the East Factory."

"You can handle this, and you have to tell me."

"Your Majesty, this is a bit tricky, and the minions don't dare to do it."

"What case you don't dare to deal with, you are the factory supervisor of the East Factory, and I have a case in the Ming Dynasty that you dare not handle."

"The emperor is like this, the master of this first floor is the brother of the Empress Dowager Li, that is, His Majesty's uncle, so the slaves dare not do it."

In fact, this Empress Dowager Li is not Mu Zong's biological mother. Mu Zong's mother is Concubine Du Kang, who has passed away, this Empress Dowager Li is the concubine of Emperor Sejong, because she usually takes care of Mu Zong, plus there is no higher level than him, so she became the Queen Mother, this Empress Dowager Li since Mu Zong ascended the throne, thinking of her feelings for Mu Zong, is still very arrogant in the palace, Mu Zong is a person who knows filial piety very well, and generally has a lot of respect for the Empress Dowager Li, so the Empress Dowager Li also cultivates her own power in the palace, Feng Bao is the Empress Dowager Li single-handedly.

When Mu Zong heard that he was the younger brother of the Empress Dowager Li, although he had only met with Uncle Li a few times and had no feelings, he still asked because of the face of the Empress Dowager Li: "Chen Jiu, is this case big, if it is not big, let him go." ”

"Your Majesty, this case is very complicated, this dead eunuch is the procurement of our palace, the slave thinks, this procurement is directly related to your personal safety, why did the procurement die where. Therefore, the slave thinks that this matter is related to the 'Yin' Demon Sect, and the slave wants to strictly investigate this case for the safety of the palace, long live the Lord must not be soft-hearted, if you don't investigate this case, I'm afraid there will be a case of the earth in the future. ”

"Then since it's so serious, you can go and investigate, where is the Empress Dowager Li, I'll go over and say hello later, and besides, Uncle Li didn't do it, it's just in his restaurant, temporarily seal the restaurant first, forget about it if it has nothing to do with this case, you can do it, if Uncle Li obstructs it, you let him come to me."

Chen Jiu got the emperor's promise, and he didn't dare to slack off, just wanted to say goodbye to the emperor and go to the back for interrogation, just walked to the 'door' of the main hall, the eunuch outside came to him, saw Chen Jiu come out, greeted him and said: "Manager, there is an accident over there in the restaurant, our people."

was injured on the ground by Uncle Li, life and death were unknown, and the seal of the restaurant was also torn off by Uncle Li. ”

This person was observed by Chen Jiu from a distance, just waiting for Uncle Li Guo to go crazy, Chen Jiu said after listening: "You continue to monitor, and come back in time to report something." ”

After sending away the little eunuch, Chen Jiu returned to the Qianqing Palace, and the emperor saw that Chen Jiu was back again, and asked suspiciously: "Chen Jiu, why did you come back again if you didn't go to handle the case like this." ”

"Your Majesty, just now my people came to report that the people who stayed on the first floor were beaten by Uncle Li, and the restaurant where I posted a seal was also torn off, Your Majesty, I don't think I can handle this case, or let Shuntianfu handle it."

"Chen Jiu, I'm afraid of such a trivial matter, there are so many royal relatives in the capital, if you are afraid, you don't have to go to the case, I will write you a seal, and I will see if Uncle Li dares to tear it off."

Emperor Muzong personally wrote a seal, took out his own 'private' seal and stamped it on it, the imperial seal was not with him, it was kept by the celebrant and the celebrant supervisor, so he still had his own 'private' seal.

Now Chen Jiu is not afraid, with the emperor's seal, this is almost the same as the holy decree, see if Uncle Li still has the courage to tear it off.

Chen Jiu took people out of the palace and came to the first floor, at this time on the first floor, the people brought by Uncle Li were cleaning, Uncle Li moved a chair to sit at the 'door', and the two eunuchs were still lying on the cold ground, and no one took care of them.

After getting off the horse, Chen Jiu came to Uncle Li Guo, etiquette is indispensable, Chen Jiu first gave a salute to ask for peace, and Uncle Li didn't even take care of Chen Jiu, just snorted. Chen Jiu said: "Who provoked Uncle Guo, so angry." ”

"Chen Jiu, don't say cool things here, you dare to lead someone to seal Lao Tzu's restaurant, you are not small, aren't you just a eunuch, who gave you the right, today Uncle I just don't listen to you, I tore off the seal of this restaurant, what do you do to me."
