Chapter 1101: If You Can't Bear It, You Don't Need to Bear It Anymore

~8 min read 1,490 words

When the weather was hot, Chen Guanlou went down to the prison to patrol and dissipate the heat.

The A-grade prison was peaceful.

He told Master Qin: "As far as I know, Liu Changrong was disfigured in the imperial prison. It is estimated that he won't last a few days."

Master Qin said thank you with a calm expression. "Many thanks to Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen for informing."

"Are you happy?"

"It's okay!"

"Your verdict has come down." Chen Guanlou knocked on the cell door lightly. "Beheaded immediately! Fortunately, it didn't implicate your family. Your two sons can continue to work in the yamen."

The muscles on Master Qin's cheeks twitched significantly, and he didn't make a sound.

Chen Guanlou said again: "This is the result after the game. Liu Changrong must die, and you cannot live either. If you live, but the man surnamed Liu dies, this does not meet the balance they want. You die, and the man surnamed Liu accompanies you to die together; this is the result they want above."

Master Qin nodded, without refuting. After a while, he said: "Expected it long ago! When the Ministry of Justice came to interrogate last time, this old man knew he couldn't live. Being able to use this life of mine to drag the man surnamed Liu into the water, it's worth it!"

After speaking, he grinned, appearing very happy. The originally stiff face also relaxed, finally having a bit of living person's breath.

"It's good that you can think it through." Chen Guanlou nodded and continued to say: "There are ten or fifteen days left before going to the execution ground; if you have any wishes, quickly end them. Don't go to the execution ground with regrets, otherwise you won't be able to reincarnate.

This is all what others say; believe it if you have it, don't believe it if you don't. However, this statement has been passed down from generation to generation in the Heavenly Prison, so I think there is some truth to it.

If you have difficulties, don't feel embarrassed, just bring them up; if it can be handled, I will handle it for you, and if it can't be handled, I will explain the situation. The Heavenly Prison has always been very polite to convicted officials who are about to go to the execution ground. Don't waste this opportunity!"

Master Qin seemed to have a sense of reality that he was about to die only at this moment.

He touched his neck. "Beheading?"

"The verdict is beheaded immediately, of course it is beheading. Could it be that you want to experience the taste of being cut into a thousand pieces."

Master Qin laughed at himself and shook his head. "This old man didn't expect to leave in this way. Before, I always thought that I would die of old age, or die of illness. Sigh..."

"Think it through! Executioners are all experienced hands, and their actions are fast, ruthless, and accurate. I guarantee you won't feel any pain, and your head will have already fallen off." Chen Guanlou stated the cruel scene in a calm tone, but anyone with poor endurance would have already peed their pants in fear.

He chatted about the bloody scene of beheading in such a casual attitude, originally with the intention of alleviating the prisoner's psychological pressure, but unexpectedly it was counterproductive, and most prisoners felt even more pressure after hearing it.

And it made him look particularly cold-blooded and cruel!

Master Qin's mouth twitched, his face couldn't be called good-looking, just trying to maintain calmness. "I heard there are corpse-sewing craftsmen who sew up corpses."

"There are! Ask your family to pay three or five taels of silver more, and you can invite the best corpse-sewing craftsman in the capital, or even the whole world. They used to sew up corpses for royal relatives. That craftsmanship is more delicate than embroidery, and you can't see the needle holes, just like the head is still growing on the neck. During the funeral, guests coming to mourn will definitely not be frightened."

Chen Guanlou always used the most plain tone, just as plain as eating and drinking, to say the most terrifying and bloody pictures. It made people feel very uncomfortable.

Master Qin retched twice subconsciously, his face gray and ugly.

Chen Guanlou advised him to think it through again.

"People will die sooner or later; it's just a difference between early death and late death. With the man surnamed Liu accompanying you to die, what are you afraid of? You should change your angle of thinking; this gamble is worth it! Having been cowardly all his life, honest all his life, at least at the last moment, he was a man once, having revenge for revenge and grievances for grievances, there is nothing to regret."

Master Qin couldn't laugh or cry. "Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen seems to look down on honest people."

"You are wrong, I have always respected honest people. The premise is, honest but not cowardly, honest but not aggrieved! When it's time to counterattack, you must counterattack, instead of retreating blindly. As the saying goes, taking one step back leads to myocardial infarction."

Master Qin shook his head. "The essence of honesty is cowardice. Honest but not cowardly does not exist. You scold this old man for being an honest person, this old man thanks you. No mistake, in the past, this old man was indeed too honest."

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows and smiled. "We don't need to argue about the relationship between honesty and cowardice. In short, you have taken revenge, have no regrets, and think it through. When the time comes, walk to the execution ground openly and let everyone see what a man is. Beheading is nothing to be afraid of. You have to believe in the executioner's craftsmanship."

"This old man did not doubt the executioner's craftsmanship, and this old man is not afraid. It is you who have been nagging in this old man's ears, mentioning beheading in every sentence. This old man was not afraid originally, but after being repeatedly reminded that he is going to be beheaded, he has instead developed a bit of timidity. Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, be a good person and stop mentioning the word beheading, okay?"

Master Qin sincerely begged; he couldn't bear it anymore, and didn't need to bear it anymore.

Chen Guanlou didn't expect that his good intentions would lead to bad results!

His original intention was to comfort the other party, soothe the other party, and relieve the other party's psychology. But unexpectedly, it was counterproductive, and people disliked him for talking too much.

He sighed. "Fine, fine, fine, I won't mention it again. Remember, if you have any needs, just tell the prison guard."

"I want to see my family."

"You tell the prison guard, let them submit a report for you. After the application report is passed, you will naturally be allowed to meet with your family."

Chen Guanlou waved his hands and left the A-grade prison.

Next, he continued to patrol the C-grade prison.

He saw a prison guard wearing an apprentice waist tag from the pharmacy, changing medicine for the prisoners in the cell.

He stepped forward and asked: "What's the situation? Was he punished? So serious."

The prison guard told him: "Reporting to the Master, the prisoner was not punished. The prisoner was like this when he came, and it is said that he was beaten by the victim."

"Beaten so miserably? What kind of hatred and resentment, half a life was beaten away."

He looked at the prisoner's twisted limbs, swollen and ulcerated cheeks, injured eyes, and knife wounds

"Did the Six Sects not intervene?" He was very curious. Did the Six Sects really just watch with their own eyes as the aggrieved party beat the prisoner without doing anything?

The prison guard hesitated for a moment before saying, "The aggrieved party is a member of the nobility."

What the hell!

Chen Guanlou was shocked!

He himself was considered a member of the nobility, so how had he not heard that a case involving a noble as the aggrieved party had occurred in the capital? Was his information that far behind?

"Someone, go and bring the case file for this prisoner. I want to see exactly what kind of case this is."

Taking advantage of the gap while the file was being retrieved, the prison guard cleared up his confusion, whispering to him, "This man raped and murdered the daughter of the aggrieved party. He wasn't beaten to death on the spot because the aggrieved party wanted him to taste the feeling of being sliced into thousands of pieces. And to ensure he could withstand being sliced into thousands of pieces, I have been coming to apply medicine to him every day to ensure he can hold out until the day of the execution."
