Chapter 28 The plot turns around

"Alright! Have you quarreled enough? How can you be so disrespectful in front of the emperor!" Li Daozon, the Minister of Justice, couldn't stand it anymore.

"He Lan Chushi died in the prison of Dali Temple. It doesn't matter if you, Sun Fuga, escaped. I have a blood letter written by He Lan Chushi here. Take a look." Emperor Li II picked up the blood letter on the table and handed it to them.

Li Daozon took the blood letter with both hands and opened it to read. Sun Fuga and Ma Zhou also came over. The content on it made Sun Fuga's eyes light up, and the haze in his heart dissipated a lot. Before the blood

letter was finished, Sun Fuga was the first to jump out and speak. Sun Fuga knew the general content without reading it carefully, and that was enough.

"Your Majesty! The reason why He Lan Chushi banged his head against the wall in anger was because of Du Chuke's coercion. I think Du Chuke should be arrested and punished immediately."

Sun Fujia had some resentment towards Du Chuke in his heart. If Du Chuke had not gone to the prison to interrogate He Lan Chushi, how could this happen?

More importantly, Du Chuke had come to him for this matter. It was with the consent of the Dali Temple Minister that Du Chuke was able to go to prison.

If you really look into this in detail, Sun Fujia really cannot get rid of the connection. Without his permission, how could Du Chuke, an outsider, enter the Dali Temple prison.

At this moment, Sun Fujia regretted it to death!

"I have sent General Cheng Zhijie of the Zuotunwei to capture Du Chuke." said His Majesty Li II.

Cheng Zhijie was the famous Tang Dynasty devil Cheng Yaojin. The fact that Li Er could send Cheng Yaojin to personally capture Du Chuke was enough to prove how serious Li Er was about this matter. During the

time they were talking, Cheng Yaojin captured Du Chuke who was celebrating his success in Furong Garden and escorted him to the palace to await the punishment of His Majesty Li Er.

"Everyone! General Cheng Zhijie of the Left Guard has personally escorted Du Chuke to the palace and is waiting outside the palace." Wang Yuan said.

"Let him in! Have the Crown Prince and King Wei arrived?" His Majesty Li Er said.

"King Wei and General Cheng Zhijie arrived together. Du Chuke was captured in Furong Garden, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also outside." Wang Yuan said and walked out.

"Your Majesty! I, Old Cheng, brought this Du Chuke here for you!" Before the man arrived, Cheng Yaojin's loud voice had already started shouting.

"Meet the Emperor, Father!" Li Chengqian and Li Tai bowed and greeted Emperor Li Er.

Cheng Yaojin pushed Du Chuke from behind, causing him to lose his balance and fall. Du Chuke glared at Cheng Yaojin.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Cheng Yaojin bowed.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Du Chuke hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground.

"Du Chuke, I ask you, why did you force He Lanchushi to death?" Li Er looked at Du Chuke kneeling on the ground and asked.

"Your Majesty! I am innocent!" Du Chuke raised his head and cried out for injustice.

To be honest, he was really wronged. He originally thought that he could take this opportunity to overthrow the prince, but who could have known that the plot would be reversed.

From exposing the prince's treason, it turned out that he, Du Chuke, forced He Lan Chushi to death.

"You said you were

wronged? Then why did He Lan Chushi die by hitting the wall? What's the matter with this blood letter?" Li Er threw the blood letter to Du Chuke. Du Chuke hurriedly picked up the blood letter on the ground and read it. After reading it, he was almost angry to vomit blood.

Every sentence in the blood letter said how Du Chuke forced He Lan Chushi, and he had to die to show his integrity.

"Your Majesty! This blood letter must be fake. Someone wants to frame me! Please look carefully." Du Chuke kowtowed to His Majesty Li Er. He would not believe that He Lan Chushi died to show his integrity. He Lan Chushi did not have the courage.

"Harm you? Who would go to such great lengths to harm you? What good would harming you do?" Li Er said.

"Your Majesty! At that time, I asked Helan Chushi about the assassination of the King of Wei in prison, and Helan Chushi said in person that the prince wanted to rebel."

"Now, Helan Chushi suddenly died, someone must have wanted to kill him to silence him." Du Chuke said.

Li Chengqian, who was standing aside, shook his head secretly after watching it. This Du Chuke was finished.

Even Sun Fuga and others sighed secretly. How could this Du Chuke be so confused? Didn't he know what the result of framing the prince for treason was?

What you said is not to imply that the prince did the murder to silence him.

"Ridiculous!" His Majesty Li Er was furious! He had never seen Du Chuke as such a shameless person in normal times. How could he be talking nonsense now? He really thought he would believe Du Chuke's slander.

"Du Chuke! How dare you frame the prince!" Li Er pointed at Du Chuke and said.

"Your Majesty! I absolutely did not frame the prince. It was He Lanchushi who said that the prince was plotting treason. The prince was afraid that the matter would be leaked, so He Lanchushi died in prison. Who else would kill people to silence them except the East Palace? I really can't think of anyone else who would do this." Du Chuke said.

Everyone shook their heads secretly. At this time, Du Chuke still did not forget to frame the prince. He was really loyal to the King of Wei.

"Humph!" His Majesty Li Er snorted coldly, and looked at Sun Fujia and said, "Has He Lan Chushi ever had contact with anyone from the Eastern Palace?"

Sun Fujia hurriedly stepped out and said, "Your Majesty! I have already asked the yamen runners of the Dali Temple. Before He Lan Chushi died, apart from seeing Du Chuke, no one else entered the prison where He Lan Chushi was imprisoned."

Du Chuke was shocked! Doesn't this mean that he, Du Chuke, forced He Lan Chushi to death.

"Your Majesty! No one from the Dali Temple saw him, maybe someone else put him in there, so you can't accuse me of forcing He Lan Chushi to death." Du Chuke defended.

"At that time, the prison was guarded not only by the Dali Temple, but also by the Zuotunwei and the Prince of Wei's marriage palace. Du Chuke, you mean that it was the Zuotunwei who did it." Li Chengqian laughed. Du

Chuke was in a hurry to explain, and didn't think much about it. In addition, the prince's words immediately irritated Cheng Yaojin. Saying that it was the Zuotunwei who did it was equivalent to saying that it was his family who did it.

The Zhonglangjiang who guarded the prison at that time was Cheng Yaojin's son Cheng Chumo.

"You bastard! How dare you slander His Majesty's imperial guards! I'll kick you to death!" Cheng Yaojin raised his foot to kick Du Chuke, he didn't care where he was.

Du Chuke was so frightened that he fell to the ground. Fortunately, Li Daozong and Sun Fuga stopped him. Otherwise, he would have been beaten to a pulp by Cheng Yaojin.

"This bastard dared to slander His Majesty! Damn it!" Cheng Yaojin said with his hands on his waist.

Everyone was speechless! They were clearly talking about Zuotunwei, which had nothing to do with His Majesty.

"Don't slander me! I have no such intention!" Du Chuke was timid and complained in his heart. How could he offend this big Buddha?

"That's not what you mean! That means it was someone from the Prince of Wei's palace who did it, so it must be you. Sun Fuga just said it was no one else but you." Cheng Yaojin stepped forward and asked.

Du Chuke was speechless! He found no evidence to prove that he had nothing to do with this matter.
