Chapter 26 He Lan Chu Shi betrayed

"Don't worry, King Wei! I, Du Chuke, will personally go and convince He Lan Chu Shi to confess his crime! I will make him come out and expose the prince's crimes." Du Chuke assured Li Tai. "

He Lan Chu Shi is a coward! Will he agree to expose the prince's rebellion? What if the prince threatens him? Will he change his mind?" Li Tai worried.

The only advantage of being cowardly is that when faced with a life-and-death crisis, he will reveal everything.

"Don't worry, King Wei! I am sure that He Lan Chu Shi will not regret it, but this requires the cooperation of King Wei." Du Chuke said.

"How can I cooperate with you?" Li Tai said.

"King Wei had better apply to His Majesty to let the people of the King Wei's Palace assist the Dali Temple in defending the prison to prevent the prince's people from taking the opportunity to sneak in." Du Chuke said.

"This is easy to handle! You don't have to worry about His Majesty! I'll leave He Lan Chushi to you!" Li Tai said.

"Yes, King Wei, I'll go to the Dali Temple now!" Du Chuke bowed to Li Tai and retreated.

"Come on! Prepare the horses! I want to go to the palace to see His Majesty!" Li Tai immediately ordered people to prepare fast horses and went to the palace to ask His Majesty Li Er to agree that his people would assist the Dali Temple in guarding the prison.

Du Chuke first went to the Dali Temple and convinced Sun Fuga, the Minister of the Dali Temple. Then, he came to the prison where He Lan Chushi was imprisoned and asked people to take He Lan Chushi to the torture room to watch the torture.

When He Lan Chushi saw the terrible situation in the torture room, the screams that were so loud that He Lan Chushi almost peed on the spot.

Du Chuke saw that it was almost time, so he ordered his men to take He Lan Chushi back to the cell. Du Chuke had already prepared wine and food for him.

Du Chuke poured a glass of wine for He Lan Chushi and said, "You saw what happened just now, what do you think?"

"What does Minister Du mean? He Lan Chushi really doesn't understand?" He Lan Chushi said.

"You should know that assassinating the King of Wei is a capital crime. I won't beat around the bush with you, just tell me! Who ordered you to assassinate the King of Wei?" Du Chuke said.

"I, I didn't assassinate the King of Wei! I really didn't!" He Lan Chushi said.

"If you say it's not true, then it's not true! It's a done deal that you assassinated the King of Wei. No matter how you try to argue

, it's useless!" "I advise you to tell the truth to avoid physical pain! As long as you can tell the person who ordered you to assassinate, not only will you not suffer physical pain, but you can also have delicious food and good wine every day." Du Chuke persuaded him. Du

Chuke said it so bluntly that He Lan Chushi naturally understood that they wanted to stand up and frame the prince.

Did they really think that he, He Lan Chushi, was an idiot? If he really slandered the prince, would he still be

able to live? Fortunately, his father-in-law was already trying to save him. As long as he stayed here for a while, he would be able to get out.

He Lan Chushi can still enjoy wealth and glory, so why should he do such a stupid thing to seek his own death?

He Lan Chushi didn't know that Hou Junji had already rescued him.

"Why does Minister Du have to go to so much trouble! I, He Lan Chushi, am not the kind of person who sells things to seek glory! It is impossible for me to frame the prince." He Lan Chushi said with great righteousness.

"Ha, ha, ha..." Du Chuke laughed

. "What are you laughing at?" He Lan Chushi was frightened by the laughter.

"I'm laughing at your stupidity!" Du Chuke pointed at He Lan Chushi and said loudly.

"You..." He Lan Chushi was shaking with anger.

"Am I wrong? Your Majesty favors the King of Wei more than any other king. In order to give an explanation to the King of Wei, Your Majesty will definitely execute you."

"You are just a small assistant to the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace. How could the Crown Prince lose his heart because of you and offend Your Majesty?"

"Even if the Crown Prince really wants to save you, there is no chance. The King of Wei will not give the Crown Prince a chance to save you."

"He Lan Chushi, do you know? The King of Wei is in the palace now, asking Your Majesty for an order to protect this place and not allow anyone from the Eastern Palace to get close to the prison of the Dali Temple."

"What will the Crown Prince think if he can't get in touch with you?" Du Chuke paused here. He wanted to give He Lan Chushi time to digest it.

What will the Crown Prince do? This question reverberated in He Lan Chushi's mind.

The prince would definitely think that he had betrayed the Eastern Palace and would do everything he could to kill him, because he knew too many secrets that he shouldn't know.

"Could the prince kill me?" He Lan Chushi widened his eyes, with a flash of panic in his eyes.

"Not only will the prince kill you, but His Majesty and the King of Wei will not let you go either."

"It doesn't make any sense whether you confess now or not. Anyway, you will be dead tomorrow because you have no value anymore."

"Your death is a good thing for everyone!" Du Chuke continued to persuade him.

He wanted He Lan Chushi's inner defense to collapse completely, so that he could cooperate with him.

"Am I really doomed?" He Lan Chushi murmured.

"It's not that there is no hope, it depends on whether you know how to seize the opportunity." Du Chuke said.

"I, I don't want to die! Minister Du, save me!" He Lan Chushi seemed to be a drowning man grabbing the last straw, and in order to survive, he even knelt down to Du Chuke.

Du Chuke's mouth corners slightly raised, the moment He Lan Chushi knelt down, he knew that the plan had succeeded.

"Very good! As long as you cooperate obediently! The King of Wei can save your life, as long as you perform well, promotion and wealth are not a problem." Du Chuke knew in his heart that if he wanted He Lan Chushi to completely turn to their side, he had to give him some benefits.

Sure enough! After hearing Du Chuke's promise, He Lan Chushi's eyes lit up.

Since the prince is unkind, don't blame him for being disloyal. A wise bird chooses a tree to roost in! He Lan Chushi should choose a wise master to serve.

"Don't worry, Minister Du! I will personally accuse the prince of treason to your majesty!" In order to show his loyalty, He Lan Chushi did not hesitate to reveal the prince's treason.

Du Chuke's eyes lit up and he was secretly happy. This He Lan Chushi was really sensible. He didn't even say anything, but he knew what to do.

This was good. It saved him a lot of effort. With the prince's Qianniu from the East Palace standing up to accuse the prince of treason, he was still afraid that he could not overthrow the prince.

As long as the prince was overthrown, he, Du Chuke, would be the number one contributor to the King of Wei becoming the prince.

Du Chuke still thought that He Lanchushi was just venting his anger and planned to frame the prince for treason, but he didn't know that Li Chengqian had indeed planned such a thing.

"Do you know that framing the prince is..."

He Lan Chushi was afraid that Du Chuke would not believe him, so before Du Chuke finished speaking, he said, "I can produce evidence to prove that the prince is plotting a rebellion."

Du Chuke was relieved! This He Lan Chushi is really a talent, he even figured out how to forge evidence. It would be unfair for the prince not to die!

"Okay! As long as you can get rid of the prince! Not only can you save your life, but you can also become a second-rank official in the court." Du Chuke said.

He said this, but in his heart he hated He Lan Chushi, a traitor, but he still needed He Lan Chushi at the moment.

Otherwise, with his character, he would have walked away long ago, so why would he waste his breath here?

"Thank you, Minister Du!" He Lan Chushi was overjoyed! Now, not only could he save his life, but he could also get promoted.
