Xinzheng, Xiangguo Mansion

In the courtyard of Xiangguo Mansion, it is clear that it is already autumn, but there is not a single fallen leaf on the ground, and the sunlight shines on the freshly trimmed flowers and plants next to the bluestone slab, exuding a thriving vitality.

The servants in the mansion all avoided early, leaving only two Zhang family guards at the entrance of the courtyard, armed with sharp blades to prevent outsiders from breaking in.

Because, today's Xiangguo Mansion has a distinguished guest.

In the courtyard, a delicate jade chessboard is placed on a stone table. Underneath the elegant turquoise is luxurious and expensive jasper.

The black and white chess pieces on it are also polished from pieces of black and white jade, and the chess box containing the chess pieces is naturally not ordinary, but also carved with topaz symbolizing the pattern of a crane and a deer symbolizing longevity.

This pair of chess sets, just the cost of materials and the labor cost of carving, will cost 2,000 gold. If it is put on the market for sale, I am afraid that it will be fried for 5,000 gold!

At this moment, Lao Xiangguo and the fourth prince Han Yu were sitting on both sides of the chessboard and playing against each other. Holding a sunspot in his open hand, he landed on the chessboard, and an old voice spat out from his throat: "The situation in South Korea today is like a chess game in front of us, unpredictable. ”

The old and weak voice and the emotion full of worry, and then think about the age of this old Xiangguo, whoever sees it, I am afraid that they will sigh with emotion "The old Xiangguo is old".

But Han Yu on the side would not be deceived by the disguise of the open ground, his eyes stared at the open hand, observing his movements when he fell,

The crumpled hands looked very old, but they were extremely steady.

And once this hand takes out a sunspot from the chess box, it will inevitably fall heavily without the slightest procrastination and hesitation.

In the action of the fallen son, there is a lot of energy, and there is also a bit of wisdom and steadiness that makes a decision and then acts.

This is exactly what Han Yu wants, no matter where South Korea goes, Sangkook must have the dignity he deserves.

is so worthy of cooperating with him.

Just as he is the fourth prince of Korea, he can't lose his demeanor as the son of a prince and a king, which is also what he wants to see in his collaborators.

As the old Xiangguo who was the fifth generation of Han with his eldest son Zhang Ping, he naturally has his own unique political wisdom.

The Zhang family wants to be the fifth generation of Xianghan, naturally it is impossible to rely entirely on talent, but on investment. With a sharp eye, invest in the Korean son they are most optimistic about.

His eldest grandson, Zhang Liang, chose his young friend, Han Fei, the most talented, wisest but also more radical of the princes.

And his open heart is not old, just like the flowers and plants in this courtyard full of vitality, he chose this more ruthless, more knowledgeable advance and retreat, and more man-like fourth son Han Yu.

Anyway, no matter which son takes the throne in the end, the Zhang family will still stand tall and become the controller of the next Han Xiang.

Now it seems that he is not old enough to spend his eyes, and his vision is still more vicious than that of the eldest grandson Zhang Liang after all.

Han Yu pinched a white seed, thought for a while, and then fell, the white son and the other three sons surrounded a black seed, Han Yu gently took out the black seed, the corners of his mouth curved a touch, and he looked leisurely.

"If the chess game is not broken, it can be solved again tomorrow, and no matter how complex the chess player is, he can finally be dismantled."

Han Yu's response to Zhang Kaidi's words was full of calmness, and it also implied that after he and Zhang Kaidi's plan failed, he just had to wait for the opportunity in the future.

He stroked the long hair under his chin and chuckled in satisfaction.

Such a mature and stable son is the hope for the future of South Korea.

It's just that he doesn't think that what he and Han Yu have carefully planned will fail.

The two continued to play against each other, and after a while, Han Qiancheng, who was dressed in black, hurriedly entered the courtyard.

"The prince and Mei Ji were happy, and they didn't go out of the house for three days, but they accidentally suffered a stroke, died suddenly on the couch, and unfortunately passed away."

Listening to Han Qiancheng's report, Han Yu and Zhang Kai glanced at each other, and they couldn't see any emotion in each other's eyes.

Han Yu dropped a white seed again, and after eating a large piece of sunspot, he straightened up slightly, raised his eyes to look at the open ground, and said in a calm voice: "Old Xiangguo, let's go and mourn for the second brother together." ”

He nodded openly, and a few expressions of mourning flashed in his eyebrows: "Yes, you should go to the palace to visit the king and pray for the prince."

However, at the moment when he walked out of the courtyard, he opened his mouth and instructed the two guards of the Zhang family: "Let people save the chess game, and continue to play when the old man and the fourth son come back." ”

Han Yu tilted his head slightly, listening to the open command in his ears, his eyes moving slightly.

Although the death of the prince is not a state funeral, whether it is as the fourth brother or as the open place of Xiangguo, he must take the lead in mourning, and it stands to reason that he should not and cannot carry out any entertainment activities......

Are you afraid that his relationship with Ji Wuye will be too close?

This steady old minister is still a little unbreathable.

The corners of Han Yu's mouth curled up.

Unless Ji Wuye can settle his suspicions with his ninth brother, otherwise, he, who has made a deal with Ji Wuye, will become Ji Wuye's only choice after the death of the crown prince.

And Zhang Kaidi also saw this, worried that he was biased towards Ji Wuye, and wanted to temporarily isolate the opportunity for Han Yu and Ji Wuye to meet.

And the reason is also very abundant, after all, the death of his second brother is the result of the joint calculation of the two.

How can there be a tiger and wolf medicine in this world that does not hurt the body?

The incense that fuels the fun will immerse His Royal Highness the prince in the ocean of desire, allowing him to use the tiger and wolf medicine that is particularly effective but also extremely harmful, supplemented by extraordinarily sweet and strong liquor, with that body that has long been hollowed out by wine, it is already a miracle that it can last for three days.

Oh, it's time to go and mourn his good second brother.

If it weren't for the fact that his second brother was so naïve and incompetent, he wouldn't have to, let alone have the opportunity to do so much to seize the position of the prince.

Of course, I also want to thank his good second brother for giving up the position of prince.

……

The news of the death of the Korean prince is naturally impossible to hide.

After all, the Korean clans led by Han Wangan came to the Prince's Mansion with a sad face, and there is no control of speech and public opinion in South Korea, after a person broke his mouth and revealed the news that Han Yunde died in the Furong tent immediately, in less than half a day, the entire Xinzheng from the powerful to the common people knew about it.

In this regard, Han Wangan was also annoyed, but not only to the people who spread public opinion, but also to Han Yun.

This kind of nest is dead...... He was so disappointed.

But after all, this is his favorite son, so Han Wangan also had to personally settle the "rumors", and announced through official channels that Han Taiyun was highly poisoned when he was robbed by thieves last time, so he died of poisoning, and expressed his condemnation of Tianze's atrocities, and strictly ordered all parts of South Korea to step up the search for Tianze.

And all of this has nothing to do with Zhang Ji.

Dead a Korean prince?

He didn't kill him, what does it have to do with him?

As for mourning?

Don't make trouble, he is a Wei man who has a heart for Qin, why should he mourn for a Korean prince who is a waste of money?

However, died in the belly of the woman...... Ahem, death under peony flowers or something, this kind of death is a bit enviable.

In the future, when he is old, he may get some tiger and wolf medicine to make himself old and strong, and have a good time, just like a certain Emperor Xianfeng who was still drinking deer blood to strengthen his body before his death.

However, what Zhang Ji didn't expect was that Han Wang'an actually ordered the whole country to mourn, and civil and military officials and all the people were not allowed to drink and have fun within a month, slaughtered within half a month, and married within seven days.

The most important thing is!

Zhou Gong's gift is also within the scope of fun!
