Chapter 1504

Hearing this, Wang Hai became excited.

"Do you want to kill him? I can do it for you."

He looked like he couldn't wait to kill someone.

Chen Guanlou snorted coldly. "He is Ninth Rank, and you are Ninth Rank. Are you sure you can kill the other party and retreat unscathed without leaving any clues?"

"I can't guarantee it."

Wang Hai didn't try to be brave. "But I want to try! If I can't kill him, then you go kill him!"

Chen Guanlou was very disgusted.

"During this time, you behave yourself for me. If you do things secretly, our cooperation will end here. You figure it out."

Wang Hai bared his teeth, but didn't dare to refute.

He quite liked doing business with Chen Guanlou; the price was high and the payment was quick. Unlike others who were stingy and always liked to bargain. When it came to the final payment for a set price, they would still make things difficult.

"Fine, fine, fine, this humble one promises you, I will never act privately. When you say kill, then I will go kill."

That's more like it.

After the two parted ways, Chen Guanlou went directly to the Heavenly Prison to work.

Qiu Gui had already been locked in the Grade A prison.

Although his true identity was a valet, a murderer, and a fake official who replaced someone else's identity, as long as he hadn't been sentenced, he was still an "official," so being locked in the Grade A prison was appropriate.

Chen Quan was in a bit of a dilemma.

"I don't know which big mouth leaked the news; the imprisoned officials in the Grade A prison all know about Qiu Gui replacing Dou Anzhi to be an official. They don't agree to let Qiu Gui be locked in. To avoid accidents, we can only lock Qiu Gui inside, far away from other prisoners."

"That's how it should be! Who is making a fuss?"

Chen Guanlou changed his clothes and drank some tea, as if to sober up.

"Most of the imprisoned officials expressed dissatisfaction. However, Lord Cao Song didn't express his stance. He is the person with the most valuable status in the Grade A prison, so this subordinate didn't dare to ask rashly."

Chen Quan explained carefully.

Chen Guanlou smiled in realization. "How is Qiu Gui's situation?"

"Not very good!" Chen Quan said the truth. "When he was escorted here, he was in a semi-comatose state, eyes open but unaware, and he didn't respond to anything said to him."

"Can he eat and drink normally?"

"Eating requires someone to feed him, as if he can't feel hunger. He can swallow water on his own."

Hearing this, Chen Guanlou mocked, "Could it be that he thinks pretending to be autistic can help him avoid trial and the death penalty?"

"This subordinate doesn't know. Should we let Medical Official Mu take a look at him?"

"Of course! The Ministry of Justice has given repeated orders: absolutely do not let Qiu Gui die in the Heavenly Prison; he must be executed according to the law."

Hearing this, Chen Quan felt panicked and hurriedly ran to find Medical Official Mu to diagnose Qiu Gui. The person must not die!

Chen Guanlou tidied up and also went down to the Grade A prison.

Medical Official Mu was diagnosing Qiu Gui.

He asked, "What's the situation?" He also glanced at Qiu Gui, who had his eyes open but showed no movement, like a living dead person. In the dim prison cell, it was truly a bit terrifying.

Medical Official Mu's expression was serious, as if he had encountered a difficult and miscellaneous disease. He said uncertainly, "Suspected soul-loss syndrome."

"Suspected? Can't be diagnosed? He was fine; how could he get soul-loss syndrome?"

"I haven't studied soul-loss syndrome much. His symptoms look a bit like soul-loss syndrome. Excessive fear, plus having a heart to escape, makes it possible to cause soul-loss syndrome. I heard he was scared to faint on the spot at yesterday's morning court?"

"Not just that! I heard he was scared to the point of peeing on the spot."

Chen Guanlou heard this news from Wang Hai.

Sun Daojing wouldn't chat with him about these gossips.

Eunuch Wang Hai was well-informed and had no scruples, so naturally, he said whatever he knew.

Medical Official Mu clicked his tongue twice. "In this way, it is very likely soul-loss syndrome."

"Can it be cured?"

Medical Official Mu shook his head and then nodded. "I am not good at this kind of illness; why don't you invite Pure Yang Zhenren over. Those who practice Daoism are better at handling this kind of situation."

Chen Guanlou walked into the prison cell and raised his hand to snap his fingers in front of Qiu Gui.

The other party didn't react at all; his eyeballs didn't even move, looking wooden. It really looked like his soul had been lost.

Very troublesome.

Other things are easy to say; the prison guards can take care of eating and drinking.

But how to handle the excrement and urine?

He didn't want to make things difficult for the prison guards and handymen with such disgusting things.

"Fine, I will personally invite Pure Yang Zhenren, hoping it will work. Is there anything else wrong with his body?"

"Nothing wrong!" Medical Official Mu said affirmatively.

Qiu Gui is in his prime, and he also takes care of his health on weekdays, so his body is quite good. It fits the physical condition of this age.

Chen Guanlou instructed Chen Quan to arrange for prison guards who were cautious and careful to take care of Qiu Gui.

"If there is any movement, ask Medical Official Mu to take a look. Remember, no matter what, don't let him die in the Heavenly Prison."

Chen Quan nodded repeatedly.

Taking advantage of the early hour, Chen Guanlou ran to the Yuquan Palace to invite Pure Yang Zhenren to come out of the mountain.

Pure Yang Zhenren could also be considered a well-informed person; he had heard about what happened at the morning court yesterday.

"You are really capable, actually causing such a big stir."

"Don't mention it. The Emperor wants to investigate us; you must keep it secret and don't let it slip."

Pure Yang Zhenren looked confused; he didn't participate in this matter; he was just listening, so why investigate him?

"You're not lying to me?"

"Why would I lie to you? Minister of Justice Sun Daojing said it himself; how could it be fake? I came here to ask you to go to the Heavenly Prison. That Qiu Gui seems to have excessive fear and got soul-loss syndrome. Medical Official Mu can't solve it, so I can only rely on you."

Pure Yang Zhenren was still trapped in the fear that the Emperor wanted to investigate him.

"Why does the Emperor want to investigate us?"

"Because Imperial Censor Liu poked this matter open at the morning court, making the imperial court ashamed and making the Emperor lose face."

Pure Yang Zhenren screamed.

"It's over, it's over. The Emperor cares most about face! What should we do?"

"So keep your mouth shut and pretend you know nothing and have done nothing. You must be firm in this idea. Only if you believe yourself that you haven't done it and don't know about it can you deceive others."

"Yes, yes, yes, you still have experience." Pure Yang Zhenren felt relieved. Being by the side of a big bluffer, he didn't have to worry about being exposed!

The thing the big bluffer is best at is not just bluffing others, but bluffing himself!

The two rushed to the Heavenly Prison together.

The handyman was trying hard to feed Qiu Gui, and Chen Quan was guarding the prison door, staring at him. He couldn't let Qiu Gui starve to death in the Heavenly Prison.

Seeing Chen Guanlou return, Chen Quan was so excited that his eyes turned red.

"My lord, look quickly; the situation is even more serious than yesterday. When he came yesterday, he still knew how to swallow actively. Today, we have to use some means for Qiu Gui to swallow. If this continues, I'm afraid he will starve to death sooner or later."

Chen Guanlou frowned tightly. Staring at Qiu Gui inside the prison cell, he was truly a piece of trash.

He thought that the other party had the guts to replace Dou Anzhi's identity, so he must be someone who feared nothing. He didn't expect that before any means were used, he would be scared into soul-loss syndrome.

Coward!

Trash!
