Zhang Liang looked at Han Fei and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Han Fei waving his hand.
"It seems that I won't be able to stay in this position for long. If nothing unexpected happens, my father will summon me soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, hurried footsteps were heard outside.
A maid came hurriedly and said, "Sister, there is a group of guards outside, they said they are looking for the Ninth Young Master."
Everyone's faces suddenly turned ugly.
This time he didn't send the eunuchs to call for help, but sent the imperial guards directly. It can be seen that the King of Han must be furious. Han Fei might not just lose his position as Sikou this time.
Han Fei sighed, stood up and followed the imperial guards into the palace.
"What should we do now?"
Zhang Liang was a little worried and was thinking about how to save people.
Wei Zhuang shook his head.
The prince is dead, and Han Fei cannot escape this disaster no matter what, but his life should be safe.
After all, the death of the prince has greatly weakened the power of Ye Mu, so there will definitely be vested interests in this matter in the court who are willing to plead for Han Fei.
Han Fei never came back after he left.
It was not until the next day that Zhang Liang brought back the news.
"Because of the death of the crown prince, the king dismissed the Ninth Prince from his post as Sikou and also punished him with 300 lashes. My grandfather said that the Ninth Prince was beaten unconscious on the spot and has not woken up yet."
Upon hearing the news, Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu were shocked.
Three hundred lashes is too much for ordinary people to withstand. It can be fatal!
Even if Han Fei didn't die now, he might have lost half his life.
"Does the King of Han intend to kill another son just for the sake of a dead crown prince?"
Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu couldn't help but feel that King Han was a little too cruel.
Zhang Liang's lips moved slightly, and he didn't know how to comment on it.
Zi Nu sighed, took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms, and poured out a pill.
"Send this pill to Han Fei and find a way to get him to take it."
What Zi Nu took out was the few Fire Bath Pills she had left.
She took one pill when she was injured by Tianze that night. She has tried it herself and the effect is indeed amazing.
Zhang Liang also knew what this thing was. He took it carefully and then hurried to Han Fei's house.
As soon as he left, Zi Nu and Wei Zhuang fell silent.
"Now that Bai Yuan has intervened, Han Fei's previous efforts have all been in vain. It may not be so easy to deal with Ye Mu next time."
After a long time, Zi Nu spoke softly.
Wei Zhuang didn't reply. He hugged Shark Tooth and turned around to leave.
Han Fei lost his post as Sikou, which was a huge blow to Liusha.
In addition, Wei Zhuang knew that the State of Qin was still eyeing Han Fei covetously, so he had no idea how long Liusha could last.
The death of the Crown Prince of Han not only made Han Fei's previous efforts go to waste, but also dealt a heavy blow to Ye Mu.
The crown prince was originally their trump card to control Korea, but they didn't expect it to fail this time and they directly killed the crown prince.
This put Ye Mu in a passive position.
In the general's mansion, Ji Wuye had no idea how many jewels and jades he had broken, and he even killed two of his concubines before he could calm down.
Tianze was suddenly beyond their control, which they had never expected.
But now that things have come to this, there is nothing they can do.
At this time, Mo Ya suddenly came over and looked at Ji Wuye, who seemed to have controlled his emotions, and reported with his head down: "General, the fourth young master is here."
"Han Yu? What is he doing here?"
Ji Wuye was stunned for a moment and narrowed his already small eyes.
Then he waved his hand, signaling Han Yu to come in.
On the waterside pavilion in the backyard, Ji Wuye met with Han Yu alone at his request.
The surroundings are controlled by the Bird Killer and no one will get close.
"Why did the Fourth Young Master come to see me, General?"
"I heard that General Ji had always had a very good relationship with the Crown Prince. This time the Crown Prince unfortunately passed away. I am worried that the General would be too sad, so I came here to comfort the General."
Han Yu had a smile on his face, which made Ji Wuye feel like he was being laughed at.
He immediately felt unhappy.
"Thank you for your concern, Fourth Young Master. If there is nothing else, this general is still busy hunting down the traitor Tianze, so I'm sorry I can't keep you company."
Ji Wuye was in a bad mood at the moment, and his patience was also very low. He was not willing to play dumb with Han Yu at all.
Han Yu was stunned for a moment and quickly called Ji Wuye.
"General Ji, please stay. Han Yu came here to cooperate with you."
Ji Wuye stopped and turned to look at Han Yu.
"cooperate?"
"Now that the position of crown prince is vacant, it is not a good thing for our Great Korea. If we can decide on the crown prince as soon as possible, we can stabilize the country and appease the people."
Han Yu smiled and stated his purpose.
Ji Wuye's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect that Han Yu would be so eager to take that position just after the prince died.
"You are right, sir. However, the selection of the crown prince is decided by the king. As subjects, we dare not make any rash comments on this matter."
Han Yu smiled slightly when he heard this, realizing that Ji Wuye was waiting for him to state the conditions.
"Because of the Crown Prince's matter, Father was heartbroken and couldn't eat. I heard that it was thanks to Honglian who went to comfort Father that he felt better."
"I didn't expect that our spoiled and willful princess also has a sensible side. Before we knew it, she has grown up to the age to get married."
Hearing Han Yu's words, Ji Wuye's eyes changed slightly.
Princess Honglian is the apple of the King Han's eye and the most favored one among his many children.
This condition is quite tempting!
Chapter 384 The Last Chance
Han Yu gave the conditions for cooperation and then left the general's mansion.
Although Ji Wuye did not reply to him immediately, Han Yu was very confident that he could make this cooperation happen.
If the prince were still alive, Ji Wuye would naturally have other options, but now that the prince is dead, Ji Wuye does not have much room for choice.
Among all the young masters, he is the only one who can offer such a price.
Looking at Han Yu's departing back, Ji Wuye's eyes were extremely deep, and he secretly cursed him as an old fox in his heart.
After thinking about it, Ji Wuye immediately sent someone to find Jade Tiger to discuss the feasibility of cooperation.
On the other hand, after two days of recuperation, with the help of the Fire Bath Pill given by Zi Nu, Han Fei finally recovered. Although he still felt pain in his back, it did not affect his movements.
Therefore, as soon as Han Fei recovered, he ran to Zilanxuan to drink.
"You lost your position as Sikou this time. What are you going to do next?"
Wei Zhuang couldn't help but frowned as he watched Han Fei drinking.
Han Fei put down the wine bottle and smiled when he heard this.
"Although I lost my position as Sikou, I also successfully removed myself from Ye Mu's sight. Because of the death of the crown prince, Ye Mu will surely take action against Tian Ze next. Perhaps this is our chance."
Wei Zhuang and others understood what Han Fei meant.
"Tianze is indeed an ally who can be won over. His hatred for Ye Mu is deep-rooted. But what you are doing is not just against Ye Mu. If your father knew about it, you would have no place to stand in Korea."
Han Fei smiled bitterly: "I know this, but now is a special situation, so I have to take a risky move."
Wei Zhuang and others were silent for a moment.
The prince was killed suddenly, and they were indeed caught off guard.
At this time, Zhang Liang said with some concern: "But if Bai Yuan interferes in Tianze's affairs again, I'm afraid things won't go so smoothly."
After these words were spoken, everyone in the room looked a little solemn.
Although Bai Yuan is also dealing with Ye Mu, his methods are often unscrupulous.
And South Korea obviously cannot withstand such turmoil.
Just when the atmosphere was silent, footsteps were suddenly heard outside.
Hong Yu hurriedly pushed the door open and reported: "Sister Zi Nu, Mr. Bai Yuan is here!"
Everyone's expression changed slightly when they heard this.
Zi Nu's expression was complicated, Han Fei had a wry smile on his face, and Wei Zhuang was a little indifferent.
Zi Nu looked at everyone's expressions, sighed, then stood up and went to greet Bai Yuan.
Soon, Zi Nu brought Bai Yuan over.
Seeing Han Fei was also here, Bai Yuan smiled.
"I heard that you were punished by the King of Han because of the Crown Prince?"
"Uncle Master, you are just talking about something that is not relevant to the topic! I will be punished by my father, and it has something to do with you, Uncle Master, right?"
Han Fei's face darkened and he started complaining.
Bai Yuan did not shy away from it and nodded: "This matter is indeed related to me, but I did not deliberately target Liusha."
When Wei Zhuang heard this, his face turned a little ugly.
He knew the other meaning of Bai Yuan's words, which was that they were too weak, so they were implicated.
Han Fei sighed slightly.
"I understand what Uncle Master means. In fact, I know very well that from the very beginning when I came into contact with the Baiyue case, I had already fallen into the trap of the night, and I was also prepared for something to happen to the prince and then be punished."
Although his loss of the position of Sikou was closely related to Bai Yuan, he actually also had his own responsibility.
After all, he was commissioned by the King of Han to rescue the prince because he was too careless and stepped into the King of Han's forbidden area.
Bai Yuan didn't care about these. He took out a few bottles of pills and placed them on the table.
"No matter what, I am also partly responsible for your punishment, so a few bottles of Soul Gathering Pills can be regarded as my apology."
Han Fei smiled when he saw that there was something good to be gained, and took it without hesitation.
"Uncle Master, you are too polite!"
These pills are not available outside, so Han Fei would naturally not refuse them.
Seeing this, Bai Yuan couldn't help but smile and shook his head.
"Now you've lost your position as Sikou, so what are you going to do next? Cooperate with Tianze?"
Bai Yuan suddenly asked.
The smile on Han Fei's face froze and he fell silent.
The same goes for Zi Nu and others. Bai Yuan has already guessed their plan, so what will he do next?
Everyone had to admit that they were a little nervous.
After a long while, Han Fei nodded.
"Is Master Uncle planning to intervene this time?"
He stared at Bai Yuan with burning eyes.
Bai Yuan smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry, I'm not interested in this matter, you can let it go, after all, this should be your last chance."
Bai Yuan deliberately emphasized the word "last".
