Han Qian stood in front of the threshold, holding the blood book left by his father. He looked at Zhao Kuo's body lying in front of the court. The blood was still gurgling from the cracked skull. He stood there in shock for a long time. After a long time, he finally
Full of sadness, he turned around and walked back to the mourning hall, continuing to kneel in front of the coffin.
Zhao Ting'er also entered the mourning hall to stay with Han Qian.
Xi Rong said to Xi Fa'er: "Choose a good coffin and bury Zhao Kuo in Longya City."
Xi Fa'er was a little hesitant. Although Wang Wenqian secretly uncovered the chaos in Jinling, if Zhao Kuo hadn't interfered with it, Feng Liao and Zhao Wuji would have forcibly taken the boss out of Jinling under secret orders, and they wouldn't have been cut into pieces.
punishment.
What's more, it is now confirmed that Zhao Kuo is a spy who has been lurking around the boss for many years in the Liang Kingdom. It would be polite not to crush him to ashes, but also to bury him generously?
"Before he went to see Wen Muqiao under Jiao's imperial edict, the old man left a letter for Zhao Wuji to take to the capital of Shu. Although most of the handwriting in the letter was soaked in water and could not be distinguished clearly, he did mention that he should treat Zhao kindly.
"Broad." Xi Rong said.
Everyone was slightly startled. They didn't know whether Han Daoxun guessed that Zhao Kuo's identity was suspicious and decided to let Zhao Kuo go before receiving the imperial edict, or was he just worried that Han Qian would vent his anger on Zhao Kuo?
Han Daoxun has passed away, and some questions may never be answered.
Xi Fa'er took a look into the mourning hall and saw that Han Qian had knelt down facing the coffin to keep vigil. He still led people to move Zhao Kuo's body out of the yard and find another coffin to collect and bury.
At this time, Chief Shi Xue Ruogu, Li Tang, Qin Wen, Zheng Tong, Yang Zaili, Xiang Jianlong, Xi Xunqiao and others all rushed from Linjiang County after learning that Han Qian was rushing back to Xuzhou from Shu.
Coming to Dragon Tooth City.
After they came over, they first went to the mourning hall to offer incense to Han Daoxun. Seeing that Han Qian paid no attention to them, they could only accompany Tian Cheng, Gao Shao, Yang Qin, Xi Chang, Jiang Huo and others to sit in the east courtyard with big eyes and small eyes, waiting.
With.
When Xi Rong helped Zhao Ting'er, who was pregnant and couldn't bear the fatigue, and walked through the east cross courtyard to go to the inner house to rest, everyone came over to stop them.
Jiang Huo said: "The great Chu is in turmoil, the mountains and rivers are shattered, and hundreds of millions of people are trapped in fire and water. Your Highness is also waiting hard in Yueyang for Lord Han to come back and make plans. Now that Lord Han has returned to Xuzhou, he can't really ignore worldly affairs!
"
"My lord has just returned to Xuzhou today and is feeling very sad. Lord Jiang may escort the princess to Yueyang to see His Highness first. After my husband buries my father, it won't be too late to talk about other things after my grief has subsided a little." Zhao Ting'er said.
Jiang Huo looked at Xue Ruogu, Tian Cheng, Gao Shao and others.
Now not only are the two countries Liang and Chu turned upside down, and if they are not careful, they will be doomed, but the situation in Xuzhou is also more complicated.
Even after Emperor Tianyou was killed and died, Prince Yang Yuanwo usurped the throne in Jinling, but the eight states under the jurisdiction of Hunan Xingtai would not follow false edicts, and because the Marquis of Xinchang Li Pu and Wang Wenqian issued a remonstrance at Qiuhu Mountain during the alliance, they also
Deliberately avoiding the issue of priority means that the imperial court has ceased to exist for the time being.
Han Daoxun was brutally tortured to death, and the governor of Xuzhou was vacant. Theoretically, the chief historian Xue Ruogu and Sima Tiancheng should be in charge of military and political affairs. When Han Daoxun went to Jinling, the same arrangement was made.
Xue Ruogu, the chief historian, was not a personal minister of the Han family, and he had no intention of being loyal to the Han family. At first, he suspected that the Han family and his son had the ambition to separate Xuzhou, and even wanted to break with them.
Even though Han Daoxun died tragically after being executed, Xue Ruogu felt extremely sad because he was grieving and indignant for the injustice Han Daoxun suffered. Based on this, he just felt that what An Ning Palace did was wrong.
After the death of Emperor Tianyou, Jinling fell into the hands of the bandits, but Hunan Xingtai and the third prince Tan Wang were still there. At this time, he hoped that Hunan Shang Shu Xingtai could lead the Dragon Bird Army and the Eight Prefectures soldiers and horses to quell the rebellion and quell the unrest in Da Chu.
.
Qin Wen, Li Tang, Zheng Tong and others also had the same attitude.
However, Zhao Qi, Chen Jitang, Ji Xiyao, Feng Liao, Feng Yi, Kong Xirong, Lin Zongjing, Zhao Wuji, Guo Nuer, Guo Que, He Liufeng and others were originally members of the Han family. They would only follow Han Qian's lead, so there was no need for this.
Said that Tian Cheng, Gao Shao, Yang Qin, Xi Chang and even Feng Zhang, Gao Bao and other generals serving in the state camp and state camp all wore mourning clothes for Han Daoxun at this moment, which also showed that they regarded themselves as Han Daoxun's retainers and regarded Han Daoxun as his
The position and attitude of the head of the family, Han Qian, as the young master.
In addition, Yang Zaili, Xiang Jianlong, Xi Xunqiao and others are the remaining representatives of local powerful forces.
The current status of Xuzhou has not yet been clarified, let alone how Xuzhou will participate in the counter-insurgency and annihilation war led by Hunan Xingtai on the Western Front in the future, but all this requires
After Han Qian arrived in Yueyang, he discussed with King Tan, Shen Yang and others.
It's just that after Han Qian returned to Longya City, he was taciturn in front of the coffin, let alone talking. Even when everyone introduced the situation in Liang Chu, he didn't pay attention. Jiang Huo didn't know that he escorted Princess Qingyang to Yueyang and could get it.
What words can you tell His Royal Highness, King Tan, who is full of expectations? Do you really want to say that Han Qian is grieving over his death and has no interest in worldly affairs?
"Mr. Jiang might as well go and appease the princess at this time." Xi Rong said, seeing Jiang Huo in a dilemma.
"Appease the Princess?" Since Princess Qingyang has stepped into the Chu land, it is natural that Jiang Huo is in charge at this time, but Jiang Huo doesn't know that Princess Qingyang has any urgent matters that need him as soon as possible.
to appease.
Only then did Xi Rong have time to tell everyone about how they kidnapped Princess Qingyang and escaped from Shu under the search net of thousands of Shu army scouts.
Everyone was also shocked. They did not expect that Princess Qingyang was kidnapped by Han Qian and returned to Dachu.
In order to cover Han Qian's whereabouts, Guo Rong, Zhou Chu and a large number of people were detained in Shu. It was really a mess.
However, when everyone thinks about it, Princess Qingyang does need to be appeased first. In addition to Princess Qingyang, she is the link between the Dragon Bird Army and the Kingdom of Shu, and the prince of Changxiang, Wang Yong. She is also the prospective concubine of King Tan.
You can't really wait to escort her to Yueyang and then watch her cry, make trouble, and hang herself, right?
Jiang Huo was a little hesitant. He was an old eunuch who was still serving Han Qian. Can Princess Qingyang really listen to him?
"Master Xue, please accompany Mr. Jiang to see the princess?" Xi Rong bowed to Xue Ruogu and said.
Changxiang Marquis Wang Yong and Princess Qingyang are the descendants of the Shenling Division in Shu. They have always paid attention to Han Daoxun and Han Qian and his son. They must also know that Xue Ruogu, Li Tang, Qin Wen and others are loyal to the great emperor.
Those from the Chu court are not Han Qian's direct relatives. I believe that Princess Qingyang is more willing to contact them and listen to their advice.
As for the others, going to see Princess Qingyang would only add fuel to the fire.

Han Daoxun died tragically after being quartered with five horses?!
Qingyang still lived in a separate courtyard in Longya City. He learned the details of Han Daoxun's death in Jinling from the maids who were assigned to serve him, and he could not calm down for a long time.
At this time, Qingyang's heart was filled with more questions and confusion:
Han Daoxun, who had a mysterious conspiracy, went to see Wen Muqiao under the imperial edict. How could he not recognize that it was a fake edict, and how could he not arrange a way out for himself?
And knowing that Han Daoxun was being detained by An Ning Palace, why did Xinchang Hou Li Pu and the others issue a remonstrance in Qiuhu Mountain? Didn't this force An Ning Palace to kill Han Daoxun?
As the core plotter behind Yang Yuanpu, Han Daoxun's control over Qiuhu Mountain is so weak?
When Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, and Wang Wenqian conspired, there were no other powerful figures in Qiuhu Mountain to stop them from promulgating the proclamation?
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Qingyang suppressed his confusion and sat in front of the window with a cold face.
"Jiang Huo, Xue Ruogu wants to see the princess!"
Jiang Huo and Xue Ruogu stood in the yard and shouted.
Han Qian, a thief, really doesn't care about world affairs? Qingyang didn't expect that only Jiang Huo and Xue Ruogu came over, and he was startled.
Although Jiang Huo is one of the chiefs of Jinyun Tower and serves under Han Qian, he is a direct confidant of the third prince. This was already clear when he was in Tanzhou, and Xue Ruogu was in charge of Bo in Xuzhou.
, a senior official with a high sense of integrity, not a powerful person, nor Han Daoxun, a dog that Han Qian calls around at will, Qingyang also knows it in his heart.
Qingyang wished he could stab Han Qian's dog thief to satisfy his hatred, but considering his current situation, he naturally had to treat Jiang Huo and Xue Ruogu separately from Han Qian and their direct descendants.
Qingyang hesitated for a long time, pushed open the door and stood in front of the corridor, staring at Jiang Huo and Xue Ruogu with his frosty eyes, and said: "I was originally going to Chu for the Lantern Festival, and it was justifiable that I would marry into Da Chu, but there was something wrong.
Three days later, Han Qian kidnapped me without permission, causing me to enter the Chu land without any name or identity, and everyone in my homeland thought I was a traitor. I have no face to see Your Highness, and no face to return to my homeland. Please forgive me.
Your Excellency, please return to Yueyang and tell Your Highness that Qingyang will choose to live in a bitter nunnery in this lifetime, with oil lamps and wooden fish to spend the rest of your life. I hope Your Highness will not think about it."
Jiang Huo and Xue Ruogu looked at each other in confusion. Han Qian ignored worldly affairs and wanted to stay here for three years in mourning. The master in front of him also asked for oil lamps and wooden fish to accompany him for the rest of his life. Is it possible that they really wanted to tie up the master in front of them?
, escorted to Yueyang?
"Master Han is a bit reckless, but he is also grieving for his father's death and longs for his return. I sincerely ask the princess to bear with you. If the Lord of Shu and the Marquis of Changxiang have any doubts about this matter, I will definitely ask your Highness again after I see him.
"Send ministers to Yuzhou, and the capital of Shu will meet with the Lord of Shu and the Marquis of Changxiang to report this matter," Jiang Huo said, "The situation is urgent at this time, and we cannot stay in Xuzhou for too long. We also asked the princess to freshen up."
, follow us to Yueyang first. Your Highness also misses the princess in every possible way, not even thinking about food or tea."
How could Qingyang spare Han Qian so easily? He asked with a frosty face: "Since he wants me to go to Yueyang, why doesn't Han Qian have the guts to come see me? Is it possible that he can still hide from me?"
"Master Han wants to stay here to mourn his father. Maybe he can't come with us to Yueyang to see His Highness." Jiang Huo said bitterly.
Qingyang was slightly startled. This dog thief escaped from Shu in a hurry. Does he really want to stay in Xuzhou to observe his filial piety?
