Han Qiongzhou raised his hand and patted Han Cangyu's back, and followed Queen Mu's words: "Father, King and Queen, my son was practicing riding and shooting just now, when he suddenly heard that Cangyu was back, he was overjoyed and wanted to rush When I saw Cang Yu, he unexpectedly ran over wearing this outfit and asked my father and mother to forgive me!"
After hearing this, Han Huaimin breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking that he had been overthinking it just now, he raised his hand and said: "It's okay, you guys have a deep love for each other. I understand. When I first heard that Han Cangyu was back alive, I Your mother and you were also shocked and couldn't believe it. It wasn't until this living person stood in front of us that we were both surprised and happy!"
Empress Mu scolded the shivering guards standing by the door: "Why don't you quickly remove the prince's armor and sword? What are you doing there?"
"yes--"
The two guards walked up timidly, looking timidly towards the majestic Hanqiongzhou, and whispered: "Please... Your Highness, remove your armor and remove your sword..."
Han Qiongzhou's throat twitched slightly. He didn't want to force the palace rashly unless he had to. After all, his current troops had not been fully transferred to the palace for a while, and the time was not yet ripe.
He took off his armor and took off the sword from his waist.
When they saw the prince removing his armor and untying his sword, Li Anfeng and Xue Xiaohu breathed a long sigh of relief.
At that critical moment just now, as long as there was a little carelessness, an irreversible war would definitely break out. Fortunately, Han Cangyu calmly resolved it.
King Hao and Queen Mu no longer focused their attention on Han Qiongzhou, but all looked at Han Cangyu who was aside.
Han Huaimin's eyes were kind and his voice was soft and authentic: "Cangyu, please tell me what happened this year? Why did they say you were dead?"
Queen Mu also nodded and said: "Yes! Yes! Cangyu, since you are not dead, why don't you return to the palace?"
Han Cangyu said: "I would like to report to my father, the king, and my mother, that I led my son to assassinate Zhao Teng in the Yi palace that day. After I succeeded, I was chased by the Yi army. So I fled everywhere, but unexpectedly I was captured on the way. A black-clothed killer plotted against me. The man stabbed my son in the heart with his sword and kicked me towards a cliff..."
Upon hearing this, Queen Mu's eyes trembled slightly, as if the sword was piercing her heart and the kick was kicking her body.
Mother and son are connected. As Han Cangyu's mother, she had already shed all her tears when she learned of his death. Now that she saw her son again, she felt unbearable tears in her heart, and she couldn't help but shed them again.
King Hao Han Huaimin stretched out his hand and patted the dragon chair, furious: "Who dares to assassinate the current prince!"
Hearing his father's furious voice, Han Qiongzhou's heart couldn't help but rise again.
Han Cangyu did not answer immediately, as if on purpose. These few minutes of silence made Han Qiongzhou extremely nervous. His whole body was like a hedgehog with thorns, and layers of cold sweat had appeared on his forehead.
Han Cangyu said: "The assassin is a top swordsman, mixed in with the killers recruited by He'er. Erchen doesn't know who is the mastermind behind him, and he doesn't know where the killer is now. Erchen He was injured by the killer and lost his memory after falling off the cliff. It was not until recently that Erchen recovered his memory and returned to Hao Kingdom."
After hearing this, Queen Mu nodded slowly and said: "I see, that's it...you fell off the cliff and lost your memory afterwards, so you didn't return to Hao Kingdom! Cangyu, my son, do you know that when you When my father and I heard the news of your death, we felt like five thunders were hitting our heads, and all our thoughts were shattered! Now you are fine, God is so kind to you, and you are finally back alive!"
Han Huaimin nodded and reached out to pat the back of Queen Mu's hand to express comfort.
Then he looked at Han Cangyu lovingly and said: "Cangyu! It's good that you come back! It's good that you come back! You assassinated King Zhao Teng and saved the fate of the world. You are indispensable! You are indispensable! Now that you are back, father The king will definitely make it up to you!"
Speaking of this, Han Huaimin couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed in his heart. Originally, Han Cangyu had made such great achievements and should have been given the title of crown prince, but he missed the opportunity and came back a year later.
Now that the crown prince has been selected, if he rashly proposes a change at this moment, where will Hanqiongzhou be placed? It’s true that the palm of the hand is made of flesh, and the back of the hand is also made of flesh!
Just when he was worried, Han Cangyu saluted and said: "This time, I can return to Hao Kingdom smoothly and see my father, queen mother, and brother Wang. I am very happy! As for the other sons and ministers, there are not many. think!"
Han Huaimin nodded and said with a smile: "You have made great contributions, and my father will never treat you badly. We will talk about rewards later. Today you are back, and my father is very happy! You will be lucky if you survive the disaster. Today Father will set up a celebration banquet for you, so that you can take care of yourself!"
"Thank you, father!"
A voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Father! Father! I heard them say that my brother, Prince Cangyu, is back! Is it true? Is it true!"
Han Jingran screamed and stumbled in. The moment she saw Han Cangyu, she burst into tears.
Han Cangyu also turned to look at him, with a faint smile on his face: "Jing Ran... I'm back!"
"Wow - Brother Wang Cangyu! Brother Wang!" Han Jingran threw herself into Han Cangyu's arms like a child, crying bitterly.
Soon after, the story spread in the Hao Kingdom that the second prince Han Cangyu had come back from the dead and returned to the palace.
These people will never know what kind of conspiracy is involved. All they know is that their country, Hao, has a magical prince who can come back from the dead.
After Han Cangyu returned to the palace, he seemed to be a different person, becoming cold and ruthless, and began his revenge on Hanqiong Continent and his control of the royal power.
On this day, Han Huaimin, King Hao, was sitting in the imperial garden drinking with all his worries. Xun Feizi, the national advisor, was ordered to come.
Xun Feizi saluted and said, "See your majesty. Your majesty ordered me to come here. I don't know why?"
King Hao Han Huaimin pointed at the chessboard on the side, and then said: "Master, I haven't played chess with you for a long time!"
Xun Feizi glanced at the chessboard thoughtfully, and then said: "Since your Majesty has not played chess with me for a long time, why do you suddenly think of playing chess now? Does your Majesty have something on your mind?"
Han Huaimin raised his wine glass, raised his head and laughed loudly: "National Master, National Master! We have known each other for so many years, and you are worthy of being the person who understands my heart best. There is indeed something on my mind!"
Xun Feizi said: "I am willing to help your majesty solve your problems!"
Han Huaimin motioned for him to sit down, and then said: "Since Cangyu came back, there is one thing that has been bothering me..."
"Oh? What's the matter?"
Han Huaimin raised his wine glass and recalled with squinted eyes: "I remember that the day Cangyu came back, Qiongzhou's eyes were very strange. He saw his biological brother come back from the dead, and he was not happy at all."
Xun Feizi said: "Perhaps the prince was shocked by the second prince's resurrection from the dead, and he was unable to react for a while."
Han Huaimin shook his head, looked at Xun Feizi and said, "No! The look in his eyes when he broke in that day was so scary, it made my hair stand on end! I felt like the moment he came in wearing armor and holding a long sword, It’s like… it’s like…”
"Like what?"
"It's like trying to force me into the palace!"
Xun Feizi was shocked and looked at Han Huaimin in disbelief.
"The prince is the crown prince, and your Majesty has no plans to establish another prince. In the future, he will be the legitimate king of the Hao Kingdom. I really don't understand why he would force the throne. Maybe everything is just your illusion, Your Majesty."
"Perhaps it's really an illusion! I don't believe that Qiongzhou will force him into the palace, but the look in his eyes at that time made me feel uneasy... Well, I always felt like there was something wrong."
Xun Feizi nodded and said, "Could it be that your Majesty suspects that the crown prince is related to the assassination of the second prince in Yiguo?"
To this day, Han Huaimin has not connected the assassination of Han Cangyu with Han Qiongzhou, and asked: "Why did the Imperial Master say this?"
Xun Feizi said: "Excuse me for being brave. The assassination of the second prince in the country is not simple. Your Majesty, have you ever thought about it? Why would you take the risk to assassinate a current prince when a mere killer has no grudges against the second prince?"
Han Huaimin's heart trembled, and the hand holding the wine glass trembled: "There must be conflicts of interest. Do you doubt..."
Xun Feizi said hurriedly: "This matter is not necessarily related to the prince, but I think that the second prince must have threatened someone, so he was assassinated. Someone who can do such a risky thing, It must be one of the princes..."
Han Huaimin shook his head and frowned: "Master, your statement is what I least want to hear, but your analysis is not wrong. Even if some of my sons dare to do this, now... Cangyu is safe When I come back, as long as the person with evil intentions is willing to stop in time, I don't want to pursue this matter any further. After all... that person is also my son!"
Xun Feizi nodded, then looked at the chessboard lying aside, stood up and walked over. His slender figure stood aside, reached out and took out a chess piece from the box, landed it gently on the chessboard, and said: " No matter how messed up these chess pieces are, the person who controls the chess game must be you, Your Majesty!"
Han Huaimin nodded and thought carefully about the words of Imperial Master Xun Feizi.
In the fifth year after Han Cangyu returned to China, the prince Han Qiongzhou was deposed for treason and imprisoned in a prison. Later, unwilling to be humiliated, he hanged himself.
Han Cangyu was canonized as the prince and established as the crown prince.
That night, Han Cangyu rode in a carriage and rushed to the palace.
There was a sound of horse hooves, and the wheels rolled over the bluestone of the palace, making a clicking sound.
It was raining heavily outside and there was lightning and thunder.
Guards Li Anfeng and Xue Xiaohu were leading the way. The two were riding on big black horses. The heavy rain had wet their clothes. They looked stern and were very alert.
Prince Han Cangyu in the carriage was very relieved because of their protection. As he staggered, his thoughts returned to the scene when Han Qiong Continent was abolished that day.
In order to bring down Han Qiongzhou and continue to live in the palace, Han Cangyu had no choice but to conceal the truth about his assassination.
For the past five years, he has been working step by step, always dormant. He has continued to expand his power and secretly collected evidence of the Cold Qiong Continent's plot to visit. Finally, when he had accumulated enough evidence and had the power to excite him, he began to launch an attack.
