Chapter 869

~8 min read 1,497 words

The Emperor wants to vent his anger, wants to be willful, the people below have to run their legs off.

The Emperor said he wanted to cut Prince Cheng into a thousand pieces, this matter must be executed in place, without discount.

The key problem is that Prince Cheng is already dead, leaving only a well-preserved body. And he died of poisoning. The person who poisoned him, without accident, is one of Prince Cheng's family.

How to cut a thousand pieces is a problem.

After repeated communication and discussion, the decided plan was Lingchi.

Lingchi a dead person!

That's right!

It is Lingchi a dead person!

That bunch of grandsons in the Brocade Uniform Guard ran fast, using the excuse that the end of the year is busy, busy catching cult bandits, spreading their hands, and this job fell on the Ministry of Justice.

Minister of Justice Sun Daoning:...

Silently slapped himself, telling you not to speak.

Such a disgusting errand fell on the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of Justice was complaining endlessly from top to bottom. The Six Shanmen jumped out first, saying their executioners only know how to cut heads and can't do the fine work of Lingchi, pushing it clean.

And so, this job fell on the Heavenly Prison.

Heavenly Prison...

The sky has fallen!

Chen Guanlou was furious, ran to the Ministry of Justice to ask Sun Daoning for an explanation, "You are picking the soft persimmons, right. Surname Sun, you can't catch the Heavenly Prison and harm it every time there is something. Even if the Heavenly Prison is raised by a foot-washing maid, you shouldn't be like this. A body, that is a body! It's the end of the year, don't you find it disgusting?"

"This official is also disgusted, but there is no way. This is an errand personally explained by His Majesty, it must be completed. And it must be completed without discount, three thousand cuts, not a single one less."

"Are you crazy!"

"Whether crazy or not, this official doesn't know. This official only tells you, at that time, people from the palace will come to watch the execution! Remember, three thousand cuts, not a single one less."

"This job can't be done!" Chen Guanlou said angrily, "The Heavenly Prison is only responsible for guarding prisoners, not responsible for wiping your ass. You find whoever you want, in short, don't count on the Heavenly Prison to cut the body for you."

"This is an order! You are not allowed to refuse. However, you can rest assured. If the Heavenly Prison takes this job, this official promises you, within three days, all the accumulated money and grain will be allocated, absolutely not delayed. How about it?"

"Not how!" Chen Guanlou was so disgusted he wanted to vomit, "You are sincerely not wanting me to have a good year. Approaching the end of the year, suddenly such a job comes. Old Sun, oh Old Sun, I am just curious, how did this job fall on the Ministry of Justice. Is the Ministry of Justice raised by a stepmother. This job should be done by the Brocade Uniform Guard, they definitely won't find it disgusting. Why can the Brocade Uniform Guard escape, but the Ministry of Justice can't escape? Old Sun, you are not capable!"

Sun Daoning could not refute.

He couldn't say he was very capable, because the job of Lingchi-ing the body indeed fell on the Ministry of Justice.

He also couldn't say he was not capable. A man must be capable! Must be capable! Not capable is not a man.

He wiped his face and said regretfully, "This official was just a step slow in speaking, and was taken advantage of. Hey, officialdom is sinister!"

"You you you..." Chen Guanlou was furious. So angry he couldn't speak. He thought of many possibilities, but never thought that because he was half a beat slow in speaking, he would suffer such a disaster!

"What do you want me to say about you. If your mouth is clumsy, practice it, be thick-skinned! Look at that bastard surnamed Xiao in the Brocade Uniform Guard, how good at dodging work. Others know how to do it, why don't you know? The Ministry of Justice has such a chief official, you make the people below feel cold!"

Chen Guanlou looked heartbroken, wishing he could replace him, stimulating Sun Daoning's eyebrows to jump. Almost couldn't hold back, wanting to break out on the spot.

Unfortunately, he lacked confidence and was a bit guilty, so he finally held back.

"Stop shouting. Things have come to this, only bite the bullet and go up. In a few days, the body will be transported to the capital. You hurry up and prepare."

"This matter can't be done! I have been in the Heavenly Prison for so many years, and I have never done such a disgusting thing. You find someone else." Chen Guanlou snorted coldly, making his attitude of not cooperating clear.

Heavenly Prison guards are base, but they are not base in this way.

Too bullying.

"This matter must be done by the Heavenly Prison."

"Go find the Six Shanmen."

"The executioners of the Six Shanmen can't do this Lingchi job."

"Then let them borrow people from outside."

"Can't borrow. Even if you give silver, you can't borrow people. Once they hear Lingchi a dead person, no one will agree no matter how much money you give. This job can only fall on the Heavenly Prison. Prison Warden Chen, you are this official's confidant. Now that this official has encountered difficulties, as a confidant, how can you push and pull, how can you not share the worries for this official. In vain, this official has taken care of you all these years."

Sun Daoning began to manipulate Chen Guanlou.

Chen Guanlou immediately rolled his eyes at the other, "Old Sun, look at the job you took, is it something a person does? After this job is done, the Ministry of Justice will become a laughingstock."

"Whether it's a laughingstock or not is not important, what's important is to make His Majesty satisfied. His Majesty's satisfaction is better than anything."

"His Majesty is satisfied, but you still can't be His Majesty's confidant minister. In His Majesty's eyes, you are always just toilet paper for wiping ass!"

"Presumptuous!" Sun Daoning was furious. Even if it is toilet paper, it can't be said out loud. This is slapping the face! He is the dignified Minister of Justice, doesn't he want face?

Chen Guanlou didn't care and continued, "That Xie Changling doesn't have to do anything, he doesn't touch dirty or tiring work at all, easily, cleanly, and becomes His Majesty's confidant advisor with a clean body. You, dirty and tiring work are all yours, and there is no benefit at all. Why bother?"

"Then what do you want this official to do? This official sits in this position, so I must share worries for His Majesty. Even if it is toilet paper, I must fulfill the responsibility of toilet paper." Sun Daoning said very frankly, "Knowing you have resentment in your heart, how about this, the money and grain for the first half of next year, I will allocate it to you in advance. How about it?"

Chen Guanlou snorted coldly, disgusted, disdainful!

Mere half a year's money and grain want to bribe him, dreaming.

"Then how much do you want? Next year's share, all at once, how about it?"

"Two years!"

"Don't push your luck. Any yamen, it is impossible to allocate two years of money and grain in advance."

"You find someone else for this job, the Heavenly Prison can't do it."

Sun Daoning was furious, rubbing his eyebrows, "At most, at most one and a half years. This is the biggest concession this official can make. This matter cannot let others know, otherwise everyone will be boiling."

"Whoever dares to clamor, let them do this job. If it really doesn't work, kill a few chickens to warn the monkeys. I don't believe that in the face of losing their heads, anyone still dares to clamor!" Chen Guanlou came up with a crooked idea.

Sun Daoning sighed repeatedly, "If officialdom were as simple as you think, it would be good. One and a half years of money and grain, it's settled. This job must be done beautifully, making the people in the palace satisfied."

"Don't the people in the palace find it disgusting?" Chen Guanlou clicked his tongue, once again refreshing his view of the people in the palace, which was truly breathtaking.

"The people in the palace are well-informed, they have seen all kinds of bloody and cruel scenes. Mere Lingchi a dead person counts as a fart in their eyes." Sun Daoning was very angry, if it weren't for that bunch of eggless things in the palace giving blind ideas, how could there be such a perverted order to Lingchi a dead person.
