Ji Wuye's expression was calm and serious, seemingly without any pretense.

King Huanhui of Han nodded in agreement.

But he didn't respond immediately; instead, he fell into deep thought.

A while passed.

King Huanhui of Han slowly opened his eyes, looked at Liu Yi on the stretcher, and asked with a questioning voice, "Left Sima, tell me in detail, why were you beaten?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Wuye and Han An's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt.

The two men were puzzled as to why King Huanhui of Han turned to ask Liu Yi a question.

However, considering that King Huanhui of Han would occasionally exhibit such chaotic behavior, Ji Wuye and Han An suppressed their urge to step forward and speak.

Meanwhile, Liu Yi, on the stretcher, was full of complaints.

Even in his condition, King Huanhui of Han still demanded that he personally report what had happened.

This isn't just making things difficult for him, it's taking his life!

However, faced with King Huanhui of Han's personal inquiry, Liu Yi dared not refuse to respond.

Therefore, he could only stammer and haltingly report to King Huanhui of Han: "Your Majesty... this humble general really did not... did not make things difficult for Crown Prince Han Feng."

"This humble general is conducting a thorough investigation of those entering the city, in accordance with His Majesty's orders."

"It just so happens that I wasn't present when they were questioning Han Feng's son."

"When I arrived, Prince Han Feng was already in a standoff with the gatekeeper and the city guards."

"This humble general intends to resolve the misunderstanding between them."

"only···"

!

68. Honglian unintentionally saved Han An from a predicament, causing him to vomit blood in anger.

I just didn't expect that Prince Han Feng would say that I was incompetent in managing my subordinates and lacked manners.

"He didn't give me a chance to explain before ordering my men to arrest me and beat me into this state."

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is simply showing you no respect!"

"It is a small matter that I was beaten, but I am worried... worried that Prince Han Feng might... might plot to usurp the throne in the future!"

"Cough cough~"

Liu Yi looked grief-stricken and coughed repeatedly after speaking.

"presumptuous!"

Upon hearing this, King Huanhui of Han roared in anger.

"How dare Han Feng do this?"

King Huanhui of Han's face showed anger.

"Somebody come!"

Han Huanhui shouted loudly outside the main hall.

soon.

Then a soldier strode in.

King Huanhui of Han was about to issue an order.

A bright and beautiful figure ran in.

It was none other than the Red Lotus.

Upon seeing Ji Wuye, his father Han An, and Liu Yi, whose face was unrecognizable, inside the main hall, he paused, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.

But then he happily ran back towards King Huanhui of Han.

"Grandpa Wang! 420"

Honglian smiled broadly and called out joyfully.

Upon seeing this, King Huanhui of Han's anger had completely vanished.

He affectionately stroked Honglian's hair and asked with a smile, "Lian'er, what happy thing happened this time?"

When King Huanhui of Han grew old, Honglian would often come to visit him and share his joy.

Therefore, King Huanhui of Han doted on Honglian.

Honglian's eyes lit up with a clever idea, and she said mischievously, "Grandpa Wang, guess who I just ran into on the street?"

King Huanhui of Han shook his head slightly and said with a smile, "Grandpa is too old to guess."

"Oh dear! Grandpa Wang, just guess!" Honglian shook King Han Huanhui's arm.

King Huanhui of Han was immediately made dizzy by her shaking.

"Okay...okay, Grandpa Wang, I'll guess, I'll guess!"

King Huanhui of Han immediately begged for mercy.

"Whee!"

Seeing this, Honglian released Han Huanhui's arm.

"Could it be that brat Han Fei is back?"

King Huanhui of Han tried to guess.

Honglian shook her head.

"Could it be..."

King Huanhui of Han then named a few more people.

Honglian nodded repeatedly.

Finally, Honglian gradually lost interest in keeping King Huanhui guessing.

So he took the initiative to say, "Grandpa Wang, you would never guess that I just ran into Grandpa Han Feng on the street."

“He is much younger than you, Grandpa Wang, and even younger than my father.”

"Grandpa Wang, do you think he's an old monster?"

Honglian asked playfully.

Ji Wuye, Han An, and Liu Yi below were stunned upon hearing this.

They never expected that Honglian would encounter Han Feng.

When King Huanhui of Han heard Han Feng's name again, his brows furrowed slightly.

"You ran into Han Feng?"

“Yes!” Honglian nodded happily.

Then, she continued, "He's so handsome! And such a good person! When I called him an old monster, he didn't blame me at all."

Honglian chuckled inwardly when she recalled Han Feng's speechless expression when she called him "Grandpa Wang."

"So he's a good person just because he didn't blame you?"

King Huanhui of Han was having trouble keeping up with Honglian's train of thought.

"Of course!"

Honglian nodded affirmatively.

"Grandpa Han Feng is just like you, Grandpa Wang, and he's been so good to me, Lian'er. Of course he's a good person!"

"And...and he also gave Lian'er a gift of 100,000 taels of silver."

After Honglian finished speaking, she took out the 100,000 taels of silver notes that Han Feng had given her from her bosom and handed them to King Han Huanhui.

When King Huanhui of Han took it and looked at it, he was immediately dumbfounded.

"This...this banknote is actually real!"

"Ten thousand taels of silver notes, Han Feng is actually willing to spend so much?!"

King Huanhui of Han was dumbfounded and deeply shocked.

This is 100,000 taels of silver notes, not a small amount!

Ji Wuye, Han An, and Liu Yi below were also stunned upon hearing this.

After waking up with a start, Han An hurriedly went forward to take a closer look.

His blood surged and rushed to his throat, almost causing him to spit it out.

But at the last moment, he managed to suppress it in time.
