"Your wisdom, I believe that with your wisdom, you will definitely see that Duke Qu's death was deliberately framed by someone on our Southern Army." Chu Ruocai said.

"If there is evidence, you can take it out. If there is no evidence, will it be useful if I believe it or not? Since you ask to see me alone, don't say these useless ones." King De said in a deep voice with a gloomy face.

Upon hearing this, Chu Ruocai smiled bitterly: "Prince, if we were prepared for a long time, how could we have been plotted against us? After the incident, we were all arrested by the state court. At this time, we could only eat coptis chinensis, and we could not say what we had to do..."

"That's easy." King De nodded when he heard this, and handed Chu Ruocai a record of interrogation in front of him: "Since that's the case, let's not waste time. Look, if there is no problem, sign the custody quickly!"

Chu Ruocai was stunned, reached out to take the interrogation record, looked up at King De, and then lowered his head to look.

It would be fine if you didn't look at it. After seeing it, Chu Ruocai's face changed drastically. He suddenly raised his head and stared at King De and said angrily: "Prince, what do you mean? Do you want to betray him?"

"Chu Ruocai, you should be very clear about how big it is to be killed when Your Majesty ascended the throne. Your Majesty cannot tolerate it in public or private matters. I can tell you clearly that Your Majesty is already furious. No matter how deep this matter is involved, it will be pursued to the end. Otherwise, if the new king will suffer such a great humiliation, how can he dominate the world?"

King De didn't care about Chu Ruocai's anger, his gloomy face remained unchanged. He raised his eyes and looked at Chu Ruocai, and his voice became colder: "Now all the evidence is the work of your Southern Army. Since you can't come up with evidence to clear the suspicion, you have to be determined in this case. You Chu Ruo is a sensible person. The best way to deal with this matter at present is to take the initiative to take the initiative and admit that you killed Duke Qu on your own initiative, so that the matter will last for you. If you don't, you have to take the lead and take the lead. Which is more important, you should consider it yourself."

Having said that, Chu Ruocai certainly understood.

He could see that the National Dynasty did not intend to investigate this matter in detail. No matter what the truth was, they just wanted to make big things smaller and small things smaller.

How could Chu Ruocai sign? He immediately said, "Prince, I don't know how to sign this book of offering."

"Chu Ruocai, based on the existing evidence, you made an appointment with Duke Qu. The people from the Southern Army were there at the scene of the crime. They were already stolen and captured. This is enough to convict you. Seeing that you are a person, I will leave you a little face. Don't be shameless." King De's tone changed suddenly, revealing his murderous intent.

Chu Ruocai said in a deep voice. "These do not prove that we killed Duke Qu. Duke Qu took the initiative to go to the appointment. It was not the ones who kidnapped by our Southern Army. It was not only Duke Qu who died at the scene. The people from our Southern Army were also killed, and we were also victims."

King De sneered: "Duke Qu took the initiative to go to the appointment, but it may not be your design to lure and kill him. In any case, Duke Qu died during your meeting and did not see anyone else at the scene, so it can be determined that it was the work of your Southern Army."

Chu Ruocai asked back: "As you said, we have determined that our Southern Army is the murderer. As His Majesty's grandfather, Duke Qu, the first-rank assistant minister of the State Council, was killed by the Southern Army. However, the State Council only took it in the Southern Army, who did not even have a grade. Even if you were tortured, as long as I did not take the initiative to admit my guilt in front of the world, it would inevitably make people all over the world discuss, saying that the State Council bullies the weak and is afraid of the strong. I am afraid that by then, the State Council will not only not be able to establish its power, but also make the State Council's face even worse."

"So, do you rather sit back and watch the civil war between the State and the Southern Army than take this matter?" King De's face turned pale.

Seeing that King De's tone was loose and no longer the intention of killing himself before, Chu Ruocai breathed a sigh of relief and softened his tone: "Your Majesty, you are not chasing your life, but the same thing. If this is really done by my Nanjun, then you don't need to say more, I will take it off immediately. But Duke Qu was really not killed by us. This is someone who is framed and framed my Nanjun. How could I be willing to suffer this loss? Even if I can, the Nanjun cannot accept this account."

"As far as you say, do you feel wronged? The matter was caused by you. If you are not responsible, who will be responsible?" King De said with a dark face and said in a deep voice: "Chu Ruocai, I will tell you clearly that Your Majesty has been preparing to summon the military headquarters and order troops to enter Guangdong. We are fighting for time to deal with this matter with Your Majesty's anger. Otherwise, you will have already fallen to the ground and will never have the chance to show off in front of me."

"We have considered everything you can think of. Now there are only two roads left, either you can take it or the Southern Army. To be honest, even if you are willing to bear it, you may not be able to calm Your Majesty's thunder wrath. This is the situation, and you should understand what you should say. There is not much time left, and I won't force you to make any choices, you should consider it yourself."

Finally, King De's face turned gloomy again, and he said, "But before you make a decision, I must remind you not to use your self-righteousness and to guess Your Majesty's thoughts. I can tell you clearly that you were at the most inappropriate time and violated Your Majesty's rebellious scale. Don't think that Your Majesty will not turn against the Southern Army because of all kinds of concerns. I don't want to say it anymore. If you have heard of what happened in the palace not long ago, then you should understand that when Your Majesty is angry, even the Ming King almost died of thousands of arrows. No matter how strong your Southern Army is or how crazy you are, how can you compare yourself to the Ming King?"

Chu Ruocai was shocked when he heard this. At this time, he did not doubt King De's words at all, and he understood it.

It is said that at the most inappropriate time, you will be in conflict with Your Majesty’s rebellion.

This must be saying that Your Majesty had been stimulated by the palace incident before. It was when his anger was in full swing. Now the Southern Army has opened up to slap him in the face...

Think about it, before the palace change, Concubine Lan died.

Now that Duke Qu is dead again, how violent will this be for the new king?

Chu Ruocai really believed it at this time, if it weren't for King De and others who took into account the overall situation.

Maybe he might be confused and didn't even have a chance to speak, so he was directly chopped off by the angry Xinjun on the spot.

If so, it would be really unfair to die.

"Prince, how dare I take chances? It's just that Duke Qu's death is not what I want." Chu Ruocai's face became serious, and he had basically figured out the current situation and thoughts of the dynasty. He really didn't dare to delay time and talk nonsense.

I was planning to polish the King of De before to see if I could meet the new king in person.

At this time, he gave up this idea, mainly because if he wanted to find a flaw in the future, there would be some.

When he discussed with Lin Huayao before, he didn't care about these flaws. They all believed that even if the new king could see that they had done something in it, the new king would only pretend not to see it and would not give up the opportunity to deal with the Ming King.

But now, after King De said that the new king is clearly a powder barrel now.

When King De mentioned the new king, he looked lingeringly scared. Even the close ministers in the court are now very afraid of the new king. What's more, he is a hostile minister. Don't really see the new king at that time. If one or two words are not good, it will be bad to touch the new king's bad head and be chopped by him. That's not worth it.

It’s better to settle King De first, and then King De will go to the new king to discuss it, and he will be the transfer.

Not daring to talk nonsense anymore, Chu Ruocai went straight to the point: "Your Majesty, you have basically understood what you mean, but you really don't have enough weight and can't beat this matter at all. Instead of using the life he is in, it's better to find out the real murderer."

"You are so light, Your Majesty is about to ascend the throne. In such a short time, where can I find the real murderer?" King De's face turned black when he heard this.

When Chu Ruocai heard this, he hurriedly said, "It seems that the prince actually understands in his heart that there is someone else who killed Duke Qu."

King De was stunned and then said coldly: "I didn't say that."

Chu Ruocai was not too eager to make a comeback and changed the topic: "I know who the murderer is actually."

"Do you know? Who is it? Is there any evidence?" King De asked hurriedly.

Chu Ruocai shook his head bitterly again: "If there is evidence, you don't have to ask for the prince alone. I explained to General Zhang before."

"There is no evidence, so what's the point?" King De was obviously disappointed and his tone became cold again.

"Your Majesty, after listening to me, you will understand why you dare to say that you know who the murderer is, and why you must ask to see Your Majesty and report to him in person." Chu Ruocai said seriously with a solemn expression.

King De frowned and finally said, "Your Majesty is waiting for me to reply. I hope what you say next will be really useful."

Chu Ruocai shook his head: "I'm just telling the truth. Whether it's useful, it's up to the prince and His Majesty to make a decision."

King De nodded and said nothing.

Chu Ruo thought for a while and said, "Actually, I secretly made an appointment with Duke Qu, because I was secretly ordered by my general. I wanted to pay a visit to Your Majesty through Duke Qu, and I would report it to Your Majesty if there is any major event."

When King De heard this, he immediately frowned, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he did not interrupt.

Chu Ruocai saw his question and took the initiative to explain: "The prince must be strange. I ask to see Your Majesty, so I can enter the palace to pay homage to you openly, without having to pass through Duke Qu around the bush."

King De nodded: "Why?"

Chu Ruocai sighed softly and smiled bitterly: "Just now, I know who the person who killed Duke Qu, but I can't come up with ironclad evidence. I can only be regarded as a false accusation, which causes even greater trouble. By the same token, I can't produce some evidence for some things, so I can't just go to see Your Majesty without any evidence. So I wanted to communicate with Duke Qu first through Duke Qu, and then report to Your Majesty. If Your Majesty believes us, then talk to Your Majesty in person. If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, I will give up."

King De narrowed his eyes when he heard this: "Stop going around the corner, just say it, what are you talking about when Duke Qu is about? Who is your so-called murderer?"

Chu Ruocai was a little silent, and then said, "The one who killed Duke Qu is the King of Ming!"
