Chapter 1615: Different Ending

It was precisely because he knew, understood, and accepted his good friend’s character that he refused to believe that his good friend would betray him and allow the commoners in Lizhou to suffer because of something that could be used against him.

His good friend must have been a stopgap measure.

He felt that it was better to let the people of a state suffer for a while so that Qiu Pusheng’s gang can be brought to justice, ending the suffering once and for all.

Although the choice was very difficult, when the choice was placed in front of him and he had to choose a path, he made this choice.

His good friend had always known what he was doing.

The Prime Minister’s wife’s words also made him understand why his good friend was so determined to die and didn’t tell him the evidence he had collected and what he had done. Presumably, he must have felt that no matter what decision he made, he had still caused the people of a province to suffer.

Dou Chen didn’t marry the wrong person.

Shi Yuan nodded and sighed. To be able to marry a wife who would stand by his side no matter what happened and believe in him was a blessing in disguise.

His Empress was also such a person. No matter what he did, she would always unconditionally put her trust in him. He was also very blessed to have someone like that in his life.

Shi Yuan opened his eyes.

After being married to him for so many years, Empress Tuoba naturally had a tacit understanding with him. Without saying a word, she got down from the bed and helped her up before leading her out of the room. She then consoled her softly, telling her not to worry too much.

Shi Yuan sighed again before leaving the royal study and heading to the Supreme Court.

Both Dou Chen and Qiu Pusheng were locked up in the Supreme Court.

Naturally, those who were part of the gang were also imprisoned. Now that the Supreme Court had changed people to take charge of the situation, they hurriedly came out and welcomed Shi Yuan, the Emperor, in.

In the prison, Dou Chen and Qiu Pusheng were in separate cells, and their cells were adjacent to each other.

Dou Chen was not chained, but Qiu Pusheng’s hands and feet were shackled, and the shackles were nailed to the iron wall. He could not escape no matter what.

Dou Chen sat there with one leg arched and the other stretched out. He placed one hand on the knee of the arched leg and rested.

Qiu Pusheng opened his eyes and sat cross-legged.

He had been in this cell for more than 20 days. His hair was messy and unwashed. It even smelled terrible. Every part of his body was itchy. From time to time, rats would pass by him. Some rats were even braver and climbed onto his legs. He immediately widened his eyes and stared at the rats. The rats were scared and ran away.

Qiu Pusheng saw that Dou Chen, who was next door, was resting with his eyes closed. He looked like he was waiting for death. He spat and scared away another mouse. Then, he smiled at the neighbor. “I didn’t expect that we would end up in the same situation.”

Dou Chen did not even open his eyes as he said, “You must be joking. You’ll be receiving a thousand cuts. There’s a high chance that I’ll be given poisoned wine. No matter what, our endings will differ.”

“How can you still be so talkative at a time like this? I admire you.” Qiu Pusheng cupped his fists and smiled. The iron chain on his wrist made a clattering sound because of his salute.

Dou Chen frowned. He hated this noise and found it annoying.

Qiu Pusheng didn’t care if the straw on the ground was dirty or not. He took one and put it in his mouth. Then he said, “Why don’t you change your teams? You’re already stuck here in this position with me. Are you not willing to kill Shi Yuan and become the Emperor?”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The jailer outside the door was stunned when he first heard this. Now that more than 20 days had passed, he had time to think.
