Helan Chushi's face gradually became panicked, and the pupils that looked at Li Jing were full of fear.

If everything is as Li Jing said, then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have confessed everything by now.

No, no, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not fall for the trick so easily, Li Jing must be deceiving himself, and he has to go back quickly.

"Lord Helan doesn't need to worry, frankly speaking, since I have invited the adults to get in the car, I am afraid that the adults will not be able to go back today."

Helan Chushi frowned, but he didn't say anything after all.

After the carriage put Li Xun'er in the Li Mansion, it went straight to the Criminal Department.

And the East Palace also got the news that Helan Chushi was indeed on trial in the Criminal Department.

"Go to the Punishment Department." Li Yuanchang pondered for a long time, and finally made a decision.

However, because it was not clear to what extent Helan Chushi had been revealed, Li Chengqian still could not appear in the Criminal Department first.

Hou Junji, as Helan Chushi's future father-in-law, first went to the Criminal Department to inquire about the news.

Within the Department of Criminal Affairs.

One table, two chairs, three teas.

Helan Chushi and Li Jing sat opposite each other.

Helan Chushi hung his head and didn't say a word, obviously the psychological defense line had begun to gradually collapse.

"Lord Helan, tell me everything you know." Li Jing knocked on the table and said.

Helan Chushi chuckled and said, "I did it all by myself, what else does Master Shangshu have to ask?" ”

As long as you take the responsibility for the crime, these so-called bad things can be solved after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince eases up.

The premise is that all this is not involved in the case of the East Palace.

But obviously, Li Jing will not let him get what he wants.

After listening to Helan Chushi's words, Li Jing smiled and pointed to the tea cup on the table, and said with a smile: "Do you know why I put three cups of tea?" ”

Helan Chushi shook his head, obviously not knowing.

Li Jing explained with a smile: "I think the people from the East Palace are on their way here at this time, no, or it should be said that it is your future father-in-law, Duke Luguo." ”

"I'm curious, if Your Majesty knows that Duke Lu Guogong has a connection with the East Palace, I don't know what kind of expression it will be."

According to what Qin Shou said, if you want to inquire about information at this time, only Hou Junji will come forward.

The East Palace will not send anyone over.

If you count the time, it's almost this time.

When Helan Chushi heard this, he was shocked and swallowed quietly.

"Then again, even if you carry all the charges alone, do you think the prince will really save you?" Li Jing suddenly raised his voice and shouted angrily: "What kind of person is that person in the East Palace, I think you know better than me." ”

After saying that, Li Jing threw the evidence paper on the table and stopped speaking.

And at this moment, Helan Chushi was in a cold sweat.

The forehead that was smashed not long ago seemed to be still aching, Li Jing's words were right, he knew very well what kind of character His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was.

It is precisely because he is clear that Helan Chushi is now in a great entanglement in his heart.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not save him, this is almost a foregone conclusion.

Helan Chushi's pupils trembled slightly.

Seeing that Helan Chushi's heart was shaken, Li Jing stopped talking, and the huge room fell silent.

At the same time, Li Jing's fingers tapped lightly on the tabletop, making a very slight and rhythmic sound.

People are afraid of death.

The sound in this silence seemed to fall gently on Helan Chushi's heart, and every time it made him tremble slightly.

At this moment, a small official suddenly came in from outside the door, leaned over and said something in Li Jing's ear.

"Alright." Li Jing nodded, suddenly spoke, and said: "Lord Helan, I will tell Your Majesty the truth about this matter, as for whether Lu Guogong has a connection with the East Palace, it all depends on Your Majesty's intentions." ”

"Bang

A dull sound, accompanied by Li Jing's hand, landed on the table.

It was also in this sudden movement that Helan Chushi's psychological defense line completely collapsed.

I can't say why, it's just that after walking behind Qin Shou again and again, every step was calculated by Qin Shou, after this kind of thing.

Coupled with the sound of silence at the moment, Helan Chushi couldn't hold back any longer.

"This is not His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's idea." Helan Chushi seemed to be deflated, and muttered in a low voice: "It was the Han prince who sent me to do something." ”

Lord Han.

Li Jing's pupils locked suddenly, and he vaguely guessed that there were other people behind the prince who were secretly manipulating, but he didn't expect it to be him.

The prince of Han is casual by nature and likes to travel in the mountains and rivers, which is a well-known thing in the court.

His Majesty thought about giving the Han prince an official position, but he refused, so Li Jing did not think about such a major matter as seizing the heir from beginning to end.

After all, it was the book of the Criminal Department, Li Jing quickly sorted out his expression, pretended to know it for a long time, and snorted coldly: "I'm afraid it can't be separated from the East Palace." ”

Helan Chushi laughed miserably and asked rhetorically, "Does Lord Shangshu have to put this charge on the head of the East Palace?" ”

Li Jing sighed and said, "That's not it, what I'm asking for is just the truth." ”

Helan Chushi was completely collapsed at this moment, and said miserably: "Hasn't Lord Man already guessed everything? ”

"Every step I made, he did everything."

"Why does Lord Shangshu need to ask again?"

After Hou Junji arrived at the Criminal Department, he first waited for the report from the junior official, but then the result was that Lord Shangshu was interrogating, and it was inconvenient to meet.

After receiving this reply, Hou Junji guessed in his heart that it was already eight or nine.

After waiting for about a stick of incense, a little official finally came out and invited him in.

At this time, the tea was already cold, and Hou Junji walked into the division and saw Helan Chushi, who was depressed, and Li Jing, who was about to pack up the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Suddenly, I choked in my heart.

"What is Lu Guogong going to do in such a hurry?" Li Jing packed up the paper with his fingerprints and asked with a smile.

Hou Junji knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion at this moment, and immediately sneered: "When I was just dealing with government affairs, someone suddenly sent Chu Shi's personal seal to me. ”

"After all, it is a personal object, so I thought about returning it to Chu Shi in a hurry, but I heard that he was invited by Lord Shangshu to have tea."

"Did Chu Shi commit something?"

Hou Junji is not a fool, and this matter has nothing to do with him from beginning to end, and now that the matter is a foregone conclusion, it is inconvenient for him to say anything.

It is the best policy to put aside the relationship with this matter.

Li Jing smiled and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just a simple talk." ”

Since Hou Junji didn't want to get involved too much, Li Jing didn't bother to put any effort into him.

Hou Junji looked at Li Jing and said with a smile: "That's good, then can I take him back home?" ”

Although he said so, Hou Junji had already secretly scolded in his heart, and he simply said something for a while?

It's just like this, can Helan Chushi become like this?

Regarding Li Jing's words, he naturally wouldn't believe a word.
