Chapter 1839: Can't Take the Shock, Paralyzed!
Su Xuewen probably knew he was annoying people; he lowered his head, scratched his hair, and wore a sheepish expression.
His younger brother, Su Xuewu, only knew how to eat and grow stupidly, his heart and eyes filled solely with food; he couldn't understand love or romance! He was very puzzled how his brother could endure two days without eating; wasn't it painful?
Chen Chen Guanlou snorted coldly, pointing at the two brats, "From now on, provoke your mother less. Xuewu, you must draw lessons from your brother."
Oh!
Su Xuewu agreed in a daze.
"Su Xuewen, that's enough. Pull yourself together immediately."
Su Xuewen hummed in acknowledgment.
Chen Chen Guanlou was too lazy to argue, so he stood up and left. He feared that if he continued speaking, he wouldn't be able to resist beating Su Xuewen up.
Chen Chen Xiaolan's mood improved somewhat; it had to be her younger brother Chen Chen Guanlou who had the methods; her son finally agreed to eat.
Seeing her younger brother come out of the room, she hurriedly asked, "Did he say anything?"
"Let him calm down for a few days; he will figure it out soon. He's a grown man, and he's at home; he won't starve to death. Xuewu will take care of him."
"Where does Xuewu know how to take care of anyone?"
"Although Xuewu doesn't know how to take care of people, he knows how to find food. Whether he eats one bite or two, as long as he doesn't starve to death, that's enough."
Chen Chen Guanlou's attitude was to let things take their course; parents should not interfere too much. If they angered him, they should let the child live or die on his own to avoid dying of anger.
Chen Chen Xiaolan sighed, "What sin did I commit to give birth to such a son, treating him like an ancestor?"
"Young people all go through this; sister, think more openly."
"When you were young, aside from being contrary in nature, you weren't this disruptive."
Chen Chen Guanlou pinched his nose, feeling somewhat guilty, "Back then, I had no capital to be disruptive. Now look at me; I am far more disruptive than him. Sister, you just worry too much. If it were me, I would kick him out immediately; out of sight, out of mind."
"Men need to be battered; after being battered a few times, they will know right from wrong, and they will grow up. You are simply too indulgent, fearing he will get hungry or cold. In my opinion, as long as he doesn't die, that's enough!"
Chen Chen Xiaolan remained noncommittal; changing her mind would definitely not happen in the short term. This matter had to be approached slowly.
"Don't just talk about me; you haven't even sorted out your own affairs."
"What affairs do I have?" Chen Chen Guanlou looked completely confused, "I am doing very well!"
"I heard you won't let Pan Pan Niangzi have children; is this true?"
It was about children again; Chen Chen Guanlou immediately felt a headache.
"Sister, can you stop tormenting me?"
Seeing his resistant appearance, Chen Chen Xiaolan's anger immediately flared up.
She spoke earnestly, "Last month, when I went to Hou Fu to pay respects, I talked about children with Hou Fu. Hou Fu said that as long as you have a child, whether boy or girl, you don't need to raise it; Hou Fu will raise it for you. You just need to visit the child when you have time."
"Pan Pan Niangzi also very much wants a child. She had no children with her previous husband; if she has no children with you either, outsiders will mistakenly think she is barren. You also said you only support her a little. If she bears the reputation of being barren, what good family can she marry into? Don't ruin her!"
"How could I ruin anyone? At most, I will give her more silver as compensation," Chen Chen Guanlou grunted.
"You don't even have to raise the child; why are you resisting?"
Chen Chen Guanlou had a headache; he couldn't simply tell his eldest sister that he possessed the Dao Fruit of Xiao Changsheng and was immortal.
"I just hate children. If the child grows up to be like Xuewen, dying and living for someone, I will definitely be angered to death."
"You hate children, yet you had two with the Heir's daughter," Chen Chen Xiaolan didn't believe a single word.
She thought her younger brother simply lacked a sense of responsibility, which was why he didn't want children. He only sought his own pleasure and ignored the task of continuing the family line; he was truly a family ingrate.
Chen Chen Guanlou defended himself, "The children born to the Heir's daughter bear the surname Song, not Chen; I don't need to be responsible."
Chen Chen Xiaolan:...
Her younger brother was indeed a man without a sense of responsibility.
Where exactly had things gone wrong?
"I advise you to have a child with Pan Pan Niangzi; at least you will have something to think about."
Chen Chen Guanlou perfunctorily replied, "I will think about it!"
"Do it as soon as possible; don't delay Pan Pan Niangzi's youth."
Chen Chen Guanlou's mind was filled with his eldest sister's nagging; he left the Su family in a daze without even eating. He didn't want to continue being nagged by his eldest sister at the dinner table.
Returning to the Heavenly Prison, he lay down on a chair and finally came back to life.
Chen Quan hurriedly came to the office to report, "When my lord was absent, a eunuch arrived carrying an oral decree from Your Majesty, severely reprimanding the Earl of Fanyang. After the eunuch left, the Earl of Fanyang fell ill; Mu Yiguan Mu said he suffered a shock and is on the verge of death."
What the hell?
Chen Chen Guanlou suddenly stood up from the chair and rushed straight to the Type-A large prison.
The Earl of Fanyang, Lu Pu, could not die in the Heavenly Prison.
Mu Yiguan Mu was already performing emergency rescue.
Chen Chen Guanlou asked, "What is the situation?"
Mu Yiguan Mu was too busy, so Mu Wenxu quietly replied, "Reporting to my lord, the Earl of Fanyang suffered a shock and has had a stroke!"
Damn it!
Chen Chen Guanlou really wanted to curse.
To save the life of the Earl of Fanyang, Lu Pu, everyone in the Heavenly Prison worked together, exerting their minds and strength.
The Emperor, however, simply sent someone to reprimand him, unleashing a barrage of heart-stabbing angry curses that knocked the man flat.
Is the Emperor sick?
Hundreds of li away from Jingcheng, he still remembered the Earl of Fanyang in the Heavenly Prison and vented his anger on a prisoner. He must have suffered grievances under Xie Changling's hand, so he was making up for it elsewhere.
Chen Chen Guanlou was full of rage, cursing Yuan Ding Emperor in his heart as deserving of suppression by Xie Changling, hoping he would never turn over for the rest of his life.
"Can he be saved?" he asked.
Mu Wenxu's expression was not optimistic, "We will do our best."
Chen Quan quietly asked, "My lord, should we send someone to notify the Earl's Mansion? In case something unexpected happens to the Earl of Fanyang, at least we can bluff our way through it."
Chen Chen Guanlou frowned, shook his head, and said, "The Earl of Fanyang is a prisoner of the Heavenly Prison; life and death are matters of fate. Even if he dies in the Heavenly Prison, it is his destiny. There is no need to inform anyone in advance. You must arrange for someone to report to the Ministry of Justice immediately, in the form of an official document, to avoid future disputes. Furthermore, instruct the Ministry of Justice that if they do not wish to bear responsibility, they should send someone to the Summer Palace to report to Minister Sun."
Chen Quan accepted the order and departed, instructing the scribes to prepare the documents and send them to the Ministry of Justice without delay. After arranging everything, he returned to the Type-A large prison.
Mu Yiguan Mu exerted all his efforts to save the man, sweating profusely from the exertion.
【63】 Thank heavens, the man was saved, but he was paralyzed! Hemiplegia! Half his face was immobile, half his body was immobile, and his speech was slurred.
Thank heavens, the person was saved, but paralyzed! Hemiplegia! Half his face won't move, half his body won't move, and his speech is slurred.
Earl of Fanyang, Lu Pu, wept, gazing hopefully at Chen Chen Guanlou. He struggled to move his half-lips, yet could not utter a single complete sentence. It was heartbreaking to witness.
Mu Yiguan Mu comforted him, "Your Lordship, you now require quiet rest; strictly avoid extreme grief or joy. As long as you recover well, your condition will improve; you will be able to speak and care for yourself. You must not be anxious; the more anxious you are, the worse the situation will become."
Earl of Fanyang, Lu Pu, could not speak and could only give up. He attempted to write with his functional hand...
Chen Chen Guanlou guessed his thoughts. Before he could write, he squatted down and asked, "I will report your condition to the Ministry of Justice and request Minister Sun to report it to Your Majesty. If you agree, raise two fingers; if you oppose, raise one finger."
