Chapter six hundred and twentieth seventh soldiers come to block
On this day of the Little Year, Shangguan Yu and others transported the coffin of the King of Han back to Beijing.
In order to show his favor to the Han Dynasty, the emperor ordered the prince to bring hundreds of officials to welcome the Han Dynasty back to the capital.
Everything after the death of the King of Han was prepared by the Ministry of Rites. When the coffin was about to arrive in the capital, officials from the Ministry of Rites were already making preparations at the Palace of the King of Han.
Shangguan Yu was holding the coffin, wearing the marshal's armor, and his silent handsome face was as cold as the winter weather.
Upon seeing this, the prince straightened his expression and put his hand in the direction of the coffin as a sign of respect for the deceased.
As a crown prince, except for the death of the direct elders of the royal family, no one can bear the courtesy of the prince.
Shangguan Yu nodded in return and was not moved by the prince's actions.
"The Ministry of Rites has prepared everything, and I am here to welcome the King of Han back to his home in accordance with the will of my father." The prince saw that Shangguan Yu did not speak, so he had to explain his intention.
In normal times, the prince would definitely be angry.
But at this moment, the situation was special, and the prince could only feel aggrieved by himself. It was because Shangguan Yu was too sad that he did not greet him as the prince.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Your Highness, the Crown Prince." Shangguan Yu clasped his fists, thanking him for the kindness, and ordered the convoy to continue moving forward.
The prince was so coldly treated that his expression finally lost its strength.
"I still have something to do. All the ministers can disperse on their own." The prince got on his horse, crossed the convoy, and drove away.
Many officials looked at the prince's actions and shook their heads inwardly.
As a prince, he doesn't even have this kind of magnanimity. If he becomes the emperor...
However, none of the princes are currently successful, and the emperor has no intention of changing the prince. The ministers can only worry about the future of the Eastern Han Dynasty in their hearts.
But the prince doesn't know this, and Shangguan Yu doesn't care.
The team transporting the body returned to the Han Palace under the respectful escort of the common people. The common people felt sad and angry at the death of a great hero who protected their home and country.
A white cloth has been hung on the plaque of the Han Palace. Under the leadership of the housekeeper and Aunt Yun, the men and women of the Han Palace knelt in a row to welcome their male master home for the last time.
"Zi Yuan, you can't let him enter the Han Dynasty Palace. This is not your father. You can't let him take over your father's identity!" Princess Han suddenly rushed down from the carriage and stopped in front of the coffin, preventing anyone from carrying it into the Han Dynasty.
Mansion.
"Mother and concubine, this is the father. There is nothing wrong with that armor. General Wang at the border has also written a memorial to the emperor. He will never do anything to deceive the emperor. I know that mother and concubine cannot accept this fact, but... please...
Mother and concubine, please stop obstructing me and let your father be laid to rest as soon as possible."
Shangguan Yu choked with sobs and grabbed Princess Han, and told the others: "Escort the prince into the palace, and leave all matters to the steward and Aunt Yun to jointly handle."
"You can't do this! Ziyuan, that's really not your father. Do you want to keep vigil for a stranger? If you really dare to do this, I will not recognize you as my son, and your father will not forgive you.
!" Princess Han struggled and shouted at the top of her lungs.
"Mother Concubine..." Shangguan Yu called weakly, dragging Princess Han's strength without losing strength, allowing the coffin to enter the Han Palace smoothly.
Everyone who watched all this couldn't help but shed tears.
The relationship between the kings of Han and their concubines in the past dynasties was envied by women all over the world. The saying that they only envy mandarin ducks but not immortals refers to the relationship between the kings of Han and his wife.
Now that the King of Han has become a cold corpse, most people think that Princess Han's behavior is because she refuses to accept the fact that the King of Han is dead, and they will not doubt the truth in her words.
Diagonally across from Prince Han's Mansion, a man in black robe looked at this scene, turned around and left coldly.
Before entering the capital, Bai Ling hid in space and followed the team all the way to the Han Palace. He kept an eye on his surroundings and discovered the presence of the man in black.
Without thinking, Bai Ling followed.
The man in black was very fast, but no one noticed that he was using Qing Kung. Even when he was walking through the crowd, no one noticed his presence.
"Master, the young master has been here and waited for you for a cup of tea. When you didn't come back, he asked his subordinates to send a message that he would leave the capital tomorrow." As soon as the man in black entered a courtyard, someone came forward to report.
"Yes." The man in black said lightly and walked forward without stopping.
Bai Ling looked at this small courtyard. The layout was no different from the nearby houses, and it was not carefully decorated.
However, as he followed the man in black, Bai Ling had to be surprised by the ancient people's accomplishments in building secret rooms.
It is obviously a small house with three entrances, and it is a large area in the capital, so it will not attract anyone's attention at all.
But underneath the house, there are many secret rooms.
When he came here for the first time, Bai Ling did not act rashly.
Even though space is Bai Ling's magic weapon, there must be a gap before he can leave.
The secret room here was built to be very closed. Bai Ling was not sure whether he could leave safely, so he had to follow the man in black, hoping to see what he was going to do and his true identity.
But Bai Ling waited for an unknown amount of time. The man in black was like an old monk in trance, sitting motionless on the bed of ice, without even taking off his mask.
Across the space, Bai Ling could also feel the chill of the ice bed. It really made him feel cold just looking at it.
"I don't know how long he will continue to meditate. Shangguan must be impatient to wait, right?" Bai Ling muttered to himself in the space, feeling a little annoyed by waiting.
After wandering around for a long time, Bai Ling couldn't help but find a suitable place to leave, which made Bai Ling even more irritable.
"If he dies here, will I be trapped here for the rest of my life?" Realizing for the first time how serious the drawbacks of space are, Bai Ling paced uneasily in the space.
"No, there must be a vent, otherwise how can people breathe in a secret room?" Bai Ling slapped his forehead and said with a smile: "I haven't used my brain for too long, and I have become more and more stupid. I don't even understand such a simple truth.
.”
Actuating the space again, Bai Ling started searching in the secret room.
General vents are made more secretive, especially those in secret rooms, which are even more difficult to find.
Not to mention Bai Ling's search for a way out, the Han Palace had just sent away the imperial doctor.
The Princess of Han refused to let anyone put her in the mourning hall, so she made a big fuss. Shangguan Yu had to knock the person unconscious before she could calm down the Princess of Han.
In order to show their kindness, the royal family sent an imperial doctor to treat Princess Han, and also sent a lot of supplements.
"Concubine, you can get up now." After Shangguan Yu turned around and came back, he asked his confidants to guard the door, and then he said to Princess Han.
"Zi Yuan, tell your mother and concubine the truth. Does your father's accident have something to do with the royal family?" Along the way, the Han princess wanted to ask this question, but she was afraid that the walls had ears.
"I have no evidence." Shangguan Yu nodded and admitted. As he helped Princess Han stand up, he said: "The most important thing is to find my father right now. As for this revenge, I will definitely avenge it."
"My mother and concubine support you." Princess Han said bitterly: "Your father has never forgotten the ancestral precepts. He knew the royal family's actions, but he kept in mind the four words of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. As a result... Ziyuan, my mother and concubine want you to be careful.
Remember, the Han Palace never cares about that position, but if someone wants to harm the Han Palace, then they will meet the Buddha!" (To be continued)
