Chapter 1596: Died very happily

The next day, Xiao Changsheng woke up, seemingly restored to normal.

Chen Guanlou asked him, "Do you remember what happened last night?"

Xiao Changsheng lowered his head and recalled for a moment. "I remember you came, and later Medical Official Mu also came. Did something happen to me? Did my illness worsen? Did you use medicine on me?"

Chen Guanlou snapped his fingers at the other man.

Xiao Changsheng furrowed his brows, looking confused and puzzled. "Official Chen, if you have something to say, please speak directly."

"Before I appeared last night, did you see anyone else? For example, a eunuch?"

"A eunuch? How could a eunuch appear in a prison cell?" Xiao Changsheng laughed. Unlike the past, where he would make expressions that vanished in an instant, he laughed very easily, looking like someone who had thought things through and let go of everything.

"Medical Official Mu judged that you were poisoned last night."

"Oh, is that so? I'm still alive now, so it shouldn't be serious, right?" Xiao Changsheng looked calm and composed, without the slightest panic or fear, and without any lingering fear of having almost died.

This was not normal!

He hadn't been like this before.

Before, just discussing how to die would make him hysterical, almost on the verge of a breakdown.

Now, hearing the news that he had almost been poisoned, he had no reaction at all, as if it had nothing to do with him.

This was the biggest abnormality.

"Official Xiao, if you don't tell the truth, it makes things very difficult for me." Chen Guanlou reminded the other man solemnly, with a hidden threat.

Xiao Changsheng smiled, neither confirming nor denying. "As long as Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen doesn't target me and doesn't poison me, making me gravely ill, I guarantee you definitely won't encounter anything difficult."

Chen Guanlou furrowed his brows. "Above, they require me to protect your life. If you die, it won't be easy for anyone to explain."

"That's your business; what does it have to do with me? I'm dead, so I don't have to explain to anyone."

Xiao Changsheng laughed again after saying this, laughing very happily, and one could even feel a little bit of happiness.

How eerie!

Chen Guanlou was uneasy, and there was a bad premonition in his heart.

He hurriedly ordered someone to invite Medical Official Mu.

Medical Official Mu rushed down to the prison. "What happened, what happened?"

"He's not normal." Chen Guanlou said solemnly, "His brain seems normal, and communication is no problem. However, he is very eerie, and his thinking is clearly different from before. Look at his smile."

The two of them stared at Xiao Changsheng inside the cell through the prison bars.

Xiao Changsheng was laughing, humming a tune while laughing, exceptionally relaxed and comfortable, clearly not fitting the current situation. Compared to his previous state, it was the opposite, two extremes.

Medical Official Mu looked suspicious and uncertain. "My lord, I haven't seen this kind of situation. Could it be that he has fulfilled his wish?"

"Does he look like someone who has fulfilled his wish?"

"Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, if you have something to say, why not say it to my face? Why bother guarding against me?" Xiao Changsheng stood up from the bed board and came to the prison door, his expression neither smiling nor not smiling.

"Thank you, Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, for your care during these days."

"Old Mu, hurry up and give him a check."

Medical Official Mu felt a rare chill in his heart.

He walked into the cell and performed a check on the other man.

Xiao Changsheng was very cooperative. "Medical Official Mu, thank you for your care during this time."

Medical Official Mu placed his hand on the other man's wrist, his brows furrowed.

Immediately after, he shouted, "My lord, he seems to be dying!"

"How is that possible!" Chen Guanlou didn't believe it.

He clearly felt the surging vitality in Xiao Changsheng's body, which was very good! As if he had eaten a ten-all-great-tonic pill.

"How could this be!"

Chen Guanlou was suddenly shocked.

Because...

Xiao Changsheng's vitality was fading away at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He rushed into the cell and grabbed the other man's neck. "Xiao Changsheng, what exactly did you do? You saw that eunuch last night, didn't you?"

Xiao Changsheng, who had been full of energy and looking very good, withered rapidly in front of the two. His skin and hair didn't age, but that kind of decay, that kind of chilling aura of death, the feeling of the person's vitality being instantly sucked away, was so obvious. No one could ignore it.

Xiao Changsheng fell down and instantly lost his breath.

Eerily, when he died, his face still carried a smile, an exceptionally comfortable and happy smile.

Medical Official Mu jumped away instantly. He didn't know why he did this, but it was just an instinctive action. There was a voice in his heart that if he didn't do this, something bad would happen.

Chen Guanlou placed Xiao Changsheng on the bed board, his gaze fixed on the other man's corpse in a daze.

"My lord, are you okay?" Medical Official Mu asked cautiously.

Chen Guanlou furrowed his brows. "The moment he died, I seemed to have a feeling."

"What feeling? My lord, don't scare me?"

"I seemed to feel the eerie moment when Xiao Changsheng's soul was pulled from his body."

Medical Official Mu's face turned pale. "Could it be that we saw a ghost?"

He looked around in some terror.

"My lord, you didn't feel wrong?"

"It's impossible to feel wrong."

As a Grandmaster, even subtle changes couldn't escape his eyes.

That eerie feeling in that instant was definitely not an illusion.

He bent down, picked up a gold cylinder from the corner of the bed board, and pressed the mechanism, popping out the gold needle.

"Smell it, what type of poison is it?"

"How could this thing appear?" Medical Official Mu was puzzled. "Could it be that the prison guards missed it during the search?"

"Imperial Consort Xiao gave it to him."

"You knew, my lord?" Medical Official Mu was very surprised.

Chen Guanlou nodded. "After he met Imperial Consort Xiao, this thing appeared on him. I didn't ask about it. I thought with his temperament, he definitely wouldn't be able to make up his mind. But I underestimated him."

He didn't regret not intercepting this gold cylinder that day.

Death was Xiao Changsheng's own choice.

Good words are hard to persuade a ghost who wants to die!

Since he wanted to die, he would definitely fulfill it!

It was just that dying so eerily made him feel a bit stifled.

He hated this kind of situation that was out of his control.

Medical Official Mu held the gold cylinder, sniffed it, and shook his head. "There is nothing."

Chen Guanlou wasn't surprised at all.

"Look at the way he died; he really enjoyed it!"

Xiao Changsheng's expression in death was happy, happy, and could be called enjoyment. Enjoying the process of death! Such a scene made one's heart jump with fear.

"Arrange for handymen to collect the body! Don't spread the news for now."

"Are you planning to delay the news, my lord?"

"I want to see someone first."

He wanted to see the Eunuch Wu Ming that Eunuch Wang Hai mentioned.

Wang Hai was recuperating at his home.

Chen Guanlou went straight home and told the other man: "Go tell Wu Ming that I want to see him. Tell him to come see me immediately. Otherwise, I will go to the palace to see him."

Wang Hai looked shocked, moved, and uneasy. "Brother Chen, I know you are righteous and want to vent for me. But there's no need!"

Chen Guanlou furrowed his brows, then realized, and said ruthlessly: "It has nothing to do with you; don't think too much."

Eunuch Wang's heart, which had been moved, suffered a heavy blow and almost stopped breathing. ===== CHAPTER 1597 =====
