Chapter 874

~8 min read 1,454 words

"The whole body is full of corpse smell, I'm afraid it won't be washed off for several days."

Medical Official Mu was very disgusted with himself.

Chen Guanlou heard this, and the hand holding the wine cup suddenly stiffened.

He forgot this.

In this way, his office is also not clean! Also stained with corpse smell!

Sin!

He put down the wine cup sullenly, "Get something fierce to drive away the smell, my office must be well-cleaned of the smell. Just in time for the New Year holiday, no one is here."

Medical Official Mu responded, then sighed, "What sin did this old man commit, to have to deal with this kind of thing at such an old age. Truly unheard of. Only seen whipping the corpse, this is the first time seeing Lingchi a dead person. Lingchi is Lingchi, but this old man has to watch the execution on the spot and be responsible for counting!"

Old Mu is pitiful, he shed a tear of sympathy for himself!

"Who isn't sinning! This official is also sinning! Eight lifetimes of bad luck, to deal with this kind of thing. Come come come, drink!"

"Can't drink!" Medical Official Mu shook his head, "Official, the year is unfavorable!"

"Say less unlucky words! Say more auspicious words."

"Can't be auspicious!" Medical Official Mu is really sad, sad to the point of being bruised all over. This year is destined not to be good. I'm afraid that when eating New Year's Eve dinner, the brain will still flash the terrifying scene of today.

Chen Guanlou:...

This wine really can't be drunk!

The office was also polluted!

Bad luck!

Everyone must die!

No matter how disgusted, in the afternoon, he still has to pinch his nose and continue. Fortunately, the scene is much smaller, and there is no need for everyone to stand guard and watch the execution. Everyone does what they should do.

Chen Guanlou, gives face to the people watching the execution in the palace and the Ministry of Justice, occasionally shows his face, just pretend to exist, and watched the whole process.

The first day's results are okay, completed one thousand three hundred cuts.

Wang Youfu and another executioner were exhausted, didn't care if the ground was dirty or not, and lay down directly, not wanting to move.

Three days, three thousand cuts, every cut is precise, can't make a mistake, not just a test of physical strength, but a comprehensive test of body and mind. If the endurance is a little worse, the mental strength is a little fragile, this job can't be done.

No wonder there are thousands of executioners in the world, and those who can do Lingchi this job can be counted on two hands.

Chen Guanlou asked with concern: "How is it, can you persist tomorrow?"

"Official rest assured! Tomorrow even if crawling, I can crawl up. Guarantee every cut is precise."

"Okay! I believe you! I won't say extra words, go down and rest well early. These two days you stay in the Heavenly Prison, don't go anywhere. Just raise your body well, raise your spirit!"

"Many thanks for the official's concern!"

The two executioners dragged their exhausted bodies down to rest.

Chen Guanlou arranged for Chen Quan to take people to watch at night.

"You work hard these two days, I don't trust handing it to others. Don't worry about anything else, just watch the morgue, without my permission, no one is allowed to enter or leave. If anyone dares to provoke, don't talk nonsense, catch them directly. One sentence, even if you lose your life, you can't let Prince Cheng's body be damaged, remember?"

Chen Quan nodded heavily, "This subordinate remembers. However... this subordinate saw Prison Clerk Miao looking around today, should I ask?"

"As long as he doesn't take action, don't worry about him. I will arrange other people to watch this person."

Chen Guanlou was still not at ease, rearranged the shifts for people who were not worth trusting, and drove them all out of the Heavenly Prison to go home, and wait until the Lingchi ended before coming to work.

The first to bear the brunt were Li Shuan and Prison Clerk Miao.

Li Shuan didn't make a sound, happily accepted this arrangement, he didn't have the patience to be in the Heavenly Prison, watching Lingchi a body. The scene was strange and terrifying!

Got the holiday, didn't even go home, went straight to the gambling house to be cool.

Prison Clerk Miao had an opinion, "Is the official not trusting me?"

"Yes! This official doesn't trust you!" Chen Guanlou admitted frankly, "You have been here for a short time, and we are not familiar with each other. Talking about trust is really too early. For the sake of each other, for the sake of the Heavenly Prison, for the sake of having a good year, you go back and rest for two days. After things here are busy, you come back to work."

Prison Clerk Miao was clearly stunned, didn't expect Prison Warden Chen to speak so directly and openly, without half a detour.

He looked sullen, "I am the one who acted like a villain in vain!"

"Villain or gentleman, it's all for the sake of the Heavenly Prison. The Heavenly Prison is good, we can be good. You also don't hope that approaching the New Year, a slip will appear, don't hope that the first year coming to the capital will be spent in panic."

"Official is right! That's fine, this subordinate will go back and rest for two days."

Seeing the other cooperate, Chen Guanlou nodded appreciatively, "That's very good! This official likes to deal with people who do things cleanly and don't grind. Rest assured, good days are still ahead."

Arranged everything, drove away all the people who couldn't be trusted. Chen Guanlou looked at the familiar Heavenly Prison, very at ease!

These few days, he rested in the Heavenly Prison, just in case.

With him here, believe no small thief dares to break into the Heavenly Prison at night and create trouble.

In the middle of the night, Eunuch Wang Hai broke in.

"You looking for me?" Wang Hai went straight to the point.

Chen Guanlou leaned on the soft couch and made a gesture of invitation, "Sit down and talk. I see Eunuch Gan is not pleasing to the eye!"

"And then?" Wang Hai raised his eyebrows.

Chen Guanlou smiled, "As a monitor, you should share worries for me. How about this, find some trouble for Eunuch Gan, so he has no time to pay attention to the Ministry of Justice, pay attention to the Heavenly Prison, especially pay attention to me!"

"You called me here, just for this?" Wang Hai felt incredible. When did he become a little brother thug, Chen Guanlou actually ordered him as a matter of course.

Unreasonable!

Bullying people too much!

"Otherwise?" Chen Guanlou asked back, "Is it to force me to kill Eunuch Gan? I don't mind, just afraid you all will jump in a hurry."

Killing a person or two, he has no burden.

His principle is, try not to kill people at will in the capital territory, because the aftermath is very troublesome. He is not a murderer, it is impossible to kill everyone if they don't agree, kill the witnesses, kill the insiders.

That is really endless!

Doing that, what is the difference from the hot-tempered Zhou Mobai?

Wang Hai was still very dissatisfied, "How did he provoke you?"

"I see him not pleasing to the eye, is this reason enough? He sees me not pleasing to the eye, is this reason okay? Approaching the end of the year, took such an errand, already unlucky enough. As a result, someone came to find trouble, the nose is not the nose, the eyes are not the eyes. I didn't kill him on the spot, already considered extremely restrained."

Chen Guanlou's attitude was completely taken for granted.

His meaning is very clear: if you don't do things for me, then I will do it myself! I do it, the consequences are hard to predict! How many people will die, you all watch and handle!

Naked threat!

Wang Hai was stimulated to jump his eyebrows.

He had never seen such a shameless person!

He is responsible for monitoring, not responsible for wiping ass!

He endured the fire and said, "Regarding Lingchi, I didn't know about it in advance. Unfortunately, I can't speak in front of His Majesty, and have no way to make His Majesty change the decision."

"You saying this is useless. Just ask you, do you clean up Eunuch Gan or not, you go up or I go up?"
