Han Shizu

Chapter 1566 The King of Goryeo
After roughly understanding the situation, Xu Xi didn't say much. The Crown Prince of Korea had already lost face, so he couldn't let this little steward take a joke.Therefore, he just said something lightly, that gold and silver will be delivered later, and then he calmly led Wang Ni away with a cold face.

Before leaving, Wang Ni made some troubles, hoping that Xu Xi could help redeem the mortgaged maid.In this regard, even with Xu Xi's calmness and wisdom, he almost broke his defenses, and replied in a blunt manner, according to the Han law, the trading of civilian population is strictly prohibited. Could it be that His Highness wants to violate the Han law.

But Wang Ni hurriedly stated that he did not dare to break the law, it was just a "leasing of talents", and by the way let the big Han scholars appreciate the singing and dancing talents of their Korean beauties.Although he knew the facts, in the end, Xu Xi resolutely refused, and directly pulled Wang Ni away, pinching Wang Ni's wrist with red marks.

"This is the future king of Goryeo?" Inside the Peony Square, the steward looked at the young Koryo prince who was "carried" into the carriage by Xu Xi from upstairs, and couldn't help sighing.

Although Wang Ni was a perfect customer for Mudanfang, looking at his performance before and after, the steward could not help being curious about the future of Korea and showing sympathy for the people of Korea.

"Report today's matter!" He sighed without much sincerity, and the steward turned his head and told a silent servant beside him.

"Yes!" The servant bowed his hands, and the exposed arm showed a strong and powerful arm with the movement, which was obviously not an ordinary follower.

Everyone knows that the background of Peony Square is profound and powerful, but most people don't know who the backer behind it is. curious.

Many people may not believe it when it is said that the person behind the Peony Square is Wang Shouzhong, the governor of the imperial city, who is the eldest son of Zhang Dejun, the envoy of the imperial city.

Dahan's most notorious secret service agency, the secret department headed by eunuchs, silently supports Dahan's cultural undertakings, and can also create a very high-style Peony Poetry Club that has become a cultural symbol in Tokyo. The literati who came here learned the truth behind it, and they were afraid that their ethics and moral beliefs would collapse.

"Is this the future king of Goryeo?" Similarly, in the claustrophobic carriage compartment covered by the curtain, Xu Xi sighed silently as he looked at Wang Ni, who was still acting languidly.

The answer is obviously doomed. Since Gao Lixiao and the prince passed away early, Wang Ni is Wang Zhao's only son, which is justified. More importantly, there is no other choice right now.

No matter how heartless he was, under Xu Xi's gaze, Wang Ni was a little embarrassed, even nervous.Of course, I was worried because I was afraid that Xu Xi asked why he owed so much money. If it was reported back to the country and heard by King Wang Zhao, then Wang Ni would be a little terrified of the consequences.

"Xu Shizhong, it's not time to pay tribute. Why did you come to Tokyo in person?" Probably out of embarrassment, Wang Ni took the initiative to break the silence.

Upon hearing this, Xu Xi frowned slightly, and asked back, "Has your Highness not received domestic news?"

"What?" Wang Ni was slightly taken aback.

Seeing his bewildered expression, Xu Xi couldn't help feeling angry while he was suspicious.Suppressing the disappointment and dissatisfaction in his heart, Xu Xi explained in a deep voice: "At the end of May, Your Majesty has already collapsed!"

"Oh!" Wang Ni replied, and then it seemed like a thunderbolt flashed in his mind, his face was excited: "What did you say?"

Perhaps satisfied with Wang Ni's shocking reaction, Xu Xi solemnly repeated.

"How could this be?" Wang Ni murmured to himself a little incredulously, but his eyes gradually brightened and became lively.

At that moment, even Wang Ni had a complicated mental journey. Although he was afraid of Wang Zhao, he was his father after all, and he was the pillar he relied on the most. Without that strong father, how could he be in Tokyo? Happy.

When he suddenly heard the news of the landslide, Wang Ni was really caught off guard, and a strong uneasiness began to emerge in his heart.However, Xu Xi beside him seemed to bring him peace of mind.

After calming down, Wang Ni slowly realized that Wang Zhao was dead, so what about Korea?Looking at Xu Xi longingly with tears in his eyes, Wang Ni tentatively asked: "Then Xu Shizhong came to the big man for the sake of..."

Xu Xi also observed Wang Ni's performance. Seeing his expectant and apprehensive expression, he sighed lightly, and then said solemnly: "The country cannot be without a king for a day. The minister came here on behalf of the court to welcome His Highness back to the country to express his condolences." Going to the funeral, the subjects of the imperial capital are waiting for His Royal Highness to return to the capital to inherit the throne and inherit the great cause of Korea!"

Wang Ni's eyes became brighter, but soon he said a little unconfidently: "I, I, okay?"

This reaction was obviously longing, but suppressed.

Xu Xi probably also understood his mood, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness is the Crown Prince of Korea, and the only heir to His Majesty. Your succession is justified by you. Even a big man will support it!"

Hearing what Xu Xi said, Wang Ni was finally relieved, and even let out a sigh of relief, and then asked, "Then what should we do now?"

Xu Xi said directly: "The court of the Han Dynasty should have received the news. The matter is urgent and there is no room for neglect. I should accompany His Highness into the palace, ask for resignation from the Emperor Han, and obtain a book of orders. Only in this way, His Highness will be stable when he returns to the country to succeed the throne." smoothly!"

"Xu Shizhong is right!" Wang Ni nodded again and again, with an attitude of obeying Xu Xi's opinion: "Everything is left to Xu Shizhong. In the future, Wang Ni will definitely be rewarded!"

Because Xu Xi was born in a famous family, he has been sent to the Han Dynasty many times, he is familiar with Sinology, and he has done a lot of work in the anti-insurgency war in Koryo, so he already has a certain prestige in the upper class of Koryo, otherwise, he would not Only in his early 30 years old, he became an important minister of Korea.

For Xu Xi, Wang Ni still trusts, not only because of Wang Zhao's promotion, but also because the emperor of the Han Dynasty also spoke highly of Xu Xi. With this relationship, Wang Ni, who has lived in Kaifeng for a long time, is deeply infatuated with the prosperity of the Han Dynasty. He also naturally felt close to Xu Xi.

Of course, the more important thing is that even though he is the crown prince of Korea, he needs the support of his subordinates if he wants to succeed to the throne, and there is only Xu Xi who can get in touch with him.

When the matter was settled, silence fell in the carriage, and both of them were thinking silently.

Xu Xi was thinking about the future of Goryeo and the direction of the relationship between Han and Li. Although it was a little difficult to accept, the death of Wang Zhao would be beneficial to Goryeo.

The domestic political environment will be improved, the atmosphere will become more relaxed, and everyone will not be as trembling as in the past, and the Korean government will become normal and healthy.

At the same time, on the side of the Han court, the vigilance and hostility towards Goryeo would probably be relaxed. In the past few years, under the education of the court, Goryeo has suffered too much and experienced too much pain. It lies in Wang Zhao's powerful monarch.

It can be said that when Wang Zhao died, everyone in the universe had fun together.As far as Xu Xi knows, even though Kaizhou is still mourning the death of the king, many people are already celebrating secretly, and it is not an exaggeration to cry with joy.

As for the future of Goryeo, thinking of this, Xu Xi couldn't help but glance at Wang Ni, and could only comfort himself silently. A relatively weak monarch may not be a bad thing for Goryeo.Even if it is absurd, as long as it does not harm the people.
As for Wang Ni, he was also immersed in the shock of Wang Zhaozhi's death. After a little grief, his mood was unavoidably surging.Of course he didn't have any big ambitions, but being about to become the king of Goryeo was obviously something worth exciting and celebrating. At this moment, even the prosperity of Tokyo could hardly stop him from returning home.

But thinking of Kaifeng, listening to the incessant din outside the carriage, Wang Ni lost interest again, and murmured: "Unfortunately, I'm leaving Tokyo, and I don't know when I can come back again."

Feeling the reluctance in Wang Ni's tone, Xu Xi couldn't help it, and said: "Your Highness, Tokyo is certainly beautiful, but this is a big man after all, not Korea! The people of Korea are still waiting for you, and the country of Korea still needs you." Take responsibility on your shoulders, don't hang around here!"

"Xu Shizhong is right, I know!" Wang Ni replied perfunctorily.

However, his eyes wandered, and Xu Xi's words reminded him that after all, Tokyo is the territory of a big man. Although it is a good place, it has too many constraints. He is the prince of a country, and he has to be angry with that mere merchant. .

If Kaizhou is to follow the example of Tokyo's development, then, in its own territory, it is still not at ease. Thinking of this, Wang Ni seems to have found his goal, and his young face is a little more excited.

Xu Xi saw it, and said silently in his heart: "Tokyo is worthy of the imperial capital of the Celestial Dynasty, and the capital of Shangguo, but it is not a good place."

The majestic Koryo prince was "corroded" into this appearance, which is really not a good thing for the Koryo country.In fact, in recent years, people like Wang Ni are not uncommon in the capital of the Han Dynasty. There are too many foreign nobles who linger on the gorgeous pomp and forget to return.
