Chapter 556: Better to have one less thing than one more thing

Lu Datou was released after a one-day tour of the Heavenly Prison; Xu Fugui got angry when he saw him, his nose wasn't like a nose, and his eyes weren't like eyes.

Secretly cursing Lu Datou to cause a bigger disaster next time and be beheaded directly.

Lu Datou was very smug and showed off in front of Xu Fugui, completely not understanding what it meant to be low-key. This guy is truly hateful.

After showing off, he ran to find his Brother Chen. Unfortunately, his Brother Chen was very busy and had no time to greet him. He just instructed him to work well, and since he didn't have the job of delivering mountain spring water, he should save money in the future.

When the salary was distributed at the beginning of each month, Chen Guanlou had long instructed the accountant to allocate a sum of money to Lu Datou's wife first, ensuring the living expenses of the whole family, and saving a little bit if they saved.

At this moment, Chen Guanlou was checking Old Tian's body with Medical Official Mu.

He said he would give the Ministry of Justice an explanation, so he would definitely give one. He always kept his word.

"No problem, right! Old Tian, at his age, logically speaking, no one should want his life. Old Mu, if you can't do it, I'll call Old Zhang over. He is good at checking corpses."

"Go call him, more people, more certainty. Anyway, I didn't find any problems; it's just normal old age. Age reached, taking medicine all year round, and in a place like the Heavenly Prison, sudden death is very normal. There shouldn't be any questions."

Chen Guanlou instructed the prison guard to invite Old Zhang.

Old Zhang's coroner level was no worse than a formal coroner, and even better. After all, he dealt with human bodies every day. Few people could be stronger than him in understanding corpses.

Old Zhang checked carefully for a while and asked, "Can it be dissected?"

"Old Zhang, what do you mean?"

"Surface-wise, this corpse is indeed normal old age. However, I feel there is still a little bit of doubt; perhaps dissecting the corpse and checking the internal organs will give an accurate answer."

"Cannot be dissected." Chen Guanlou thought for a moment and denied it decisively. "When the Tian family comes to collect the body, if they find the corpse has been dissected, it will be another lawsuit. Old Zhang, what exactly is your doubt, speak directly. I will deliberate with Old Mu."

Old Zhang pondered for a long time before saying his doubt: "Tian's illness is actually a common geriatric disease. The medicine used is also normal. However, there is one medicine, as far as I know, if the dosage is increased a little bit, accumulated over a long time, it is possible to cause cardiac paralysis, which is commonly known as sudden death."

Chen Guanlou said directly: "The prescription was given by the Tian family; although the medicinal materials are the responsibility of the Heavenly Prison to purchase, they are purchased at the pharmacy under the Taiyi Academy, so the medicinal materials must be no problem. Can this be guaranteed, Medical Official Mu?"

Medical Official Mu nodded heavily. "The pharmacy under the Taiyi Academy, the medicinal materials can certainly be guaranteed. The warehouse should still have medicinal materials, and they can be checked now. As for the dosage, it is all decocted according to the prescription given by the Tian family. The prison guards responsible for decocting medicine have received professional training, and, I also check them from time to time, so there should be no problem of excessive dosage. Unless, the prescription itself has a problem."

"You didn't check Old Tian? Is there a problem with his prescription, you don't know?" Chen Guanlou asked Medical Official Mu.

Medical Official Mu gave a cold snort, almost rolling his eyes. "Magistrate Tian didn't trust me at all. Occasionally, a few checks were just routine. As for the prescription, there is nothing special. Although I once suggested changing Magistrate Tian's prescription, Magistrate Tian didn't agree. He insisted on using the previous prescription. I thought, the Tian family's prescription is nothing more than the word 'flat'; it won't kill people, so I didn't ask anymore. There are hundreds or thousands of people in the Heavenly Prison, I am busy to death every day, naturally I have no time to pay attention to a prisoner who looks down on me."

That makes a lot of sense.

"Maybe I thought too much." Old Zhang muttered.

At this time, dissecting, the answer would naturally be clear.

However, it must not be dissected!

Chen Guanlou pondered for a while and made a decisive decision: "Conclusion, normal old age, no questions."

Adhering to the principle of having one less thing than one more thing, Chen Guanlou closed the case. Mu Qingshan was responsible for writing the official document, Chen Guanlou and Medical Official Mu signed and pressed their fingerprints in turn, and sent it to the Ministry of Justice. Once the Ministry of Justice checked it, they could notify the Tian family to collect the body.

After finishing everything, when he was free, only Medical Official Mu was by his side. Chen Guanlou asked in a low voice, "Is Old Tian's prescription really no problem?"

"What problem could there be? It's just that Magistrate Tian treated it as a treasure; his prescription, I already said, is the word 'flat'. The effect is average, and it won't kill people. The situation Old Zhang said, indeed happened. The premise is excessive dosage. But Magistrate Tian's prescription, I checked, the dosage is stable and moderate. If there is a problem, it is with the prison guard who decocted the medicine. However, I checked the medicinal material account book, and the consumption of medicinal materials is very normal, only less, not more. You can suspect that the dosage is too small, but you cannot suspect that the dosage is too much."

The reason for the dosage being too small is very clear; someone secretly embezzled medicinal materials. However, the dosage being too small only makes the curative effect average, and won't kill people.

"Could it be that the dosage was too small, causing the condition to worsen, making Old Tian kick the bucket early?"

"No."

"So sure?"

"Are you doubting my medical skills?"

"Of course not."

"Let's put it this way, Magistrate Tian's illness belongs to normal geriatric disease, and won't be fatal, just that the days are not very comfortable. The role of the prescription is mainly to regulate the body, making people feel comfortable, able to eat and sleep. You tell me, such a prescription, even if the dosage is less, what can it do? Nothing more than not being so comfortable."

Chen Guanlou nodded; he understood.

Therefore, the conclusion is correct; Old Tian's time was just up, normal old age.

The Ministry of Justice, also adhering to the principle of having one less thing than one more thing, approved the official document after it was reported. Notified the Tian family to collect the body.

The Tian family seemed to want to make trouble, but were warned by the Ministry of Justice that if they made trouble again, they would be caught. The Ministry of Justice just happened to be in charge of this, professional and corresponding.

The Tian family thought about it, weighed it, gods fight and little ghosts suffer. As little ghosts, they must have self-awareness. Decisively chose to avoid the limelight, hurry to collect the body, and end everything.

When the Tian family came to collect the body, Chen Guanlou received them personally and asked specifically, "No problem, right."

"No! No problem! What problem could there be. My old master is old, his time is up, birth, old age, sickness, and death are all normal."

"That's very good! Hey, Old Tian is gone, I still miss him. There is no mountain spring water to use in the future, what a pity, what a pity. Go, go, hurry up and pull him back, bury him grandly."

The Tian family felt like they had been granted amnesty and hurried away from this place of right and wrong.

Sun Daojing was still worried that the Princess Prefecture would find trouble with him after learning about it.

As a result...

It really was as Chen Guanlou said; the Princess Prefecture had no movement at all, completely in an attitude of 'don't disturb this Princess'. ===== CHAPTER 557 =====
