After a while, after Ma Kuo retreated, Han Wangran picked up the pieces of information on the quilt and murmured: "No matter who you are, I will never let you succeed..."

After saying that, his expression changed slightly and he suddenly covered his mouth with his hand.

Immediately, a series of violent coughs resounded throughout the palace.

Two days later in the morning, Lihou Hanwu's car slowly drove into Jicheng.

In the carriage, Lihou Hanwu was sitting upright with a serious look on his face, as if he was thinking about some important issue.

His serious expression deterred his wives, concubines, and children from disturbing him.

Suddenly, the carriage slowly stopped.

Sensing this, Lihou Hanwu opened his eyes and asked the groom who was driving him and the guards outside to protect him.

These grooms and guards were all personally selected by Julu Governor Yan Kui after he fled to Julu City that day. Although Yan Kui kept saying that he was sent to Jicheng to help him seize the throne, Li Hou Han Wu did not believe it at all. .

If Yan Kuei really wants to help him seize the throne, then where are his Yan Kuei people at this moment? Where are his troops?

He was betrayed by Yan Kui, his former confidant and favorite general.

In other words, Yan Kui used the news of Han Wangran's death to lure him back to China - in fact, in the view of Lihou Han Wu, the news of the death of his adopted brother Han Wangran was most likely false.

But even after guessing these things, Li Hou Han Wu still did not act rashly. Firstly, the guards who followed him to Jicheng this time were all Julu Shouyan's confidants. Secondly, he also wanted to meet his sworn brother Han Wangran. , ask him personally: What do you want to do?

"Marquis Li, Wei Qing Ma Kuo has come to greet you personally." The guard outside the car said to Han Wu, Marquis Li.

"Ma Kuo? Is he the son of Ma She, the guardian of Shanggu? That young boy actually got into the high position of Wei Qing..."

Li Hou Han Wu hummed without meaning.

After a while, someone raised the curtain of the carriage. Immediately, Wei Qing Ma Kuo clasped his fists towards Han Wu, the Marquis of Li in the carriage, and bowed respectfully: "Marquis Li."

"..." Li Hou Han Wu looked Ma Kuo up and down and nodded slightly.

Seeing that Marquis Li Han Wu looked cold, Ma Kuo didn't care and said with a smile: "Congratulations Marquis Li for returning home. The general has prepared wine to welcome Marquis Li."

"..." Li Hou Han Wu stared at the smile on Ma Kuo's face.

Although he had been in Wei for a long time, he also knew that Ma Kuo was now a close minister of his younger brother Han Wangran. Since Ma Kuo came to greet him with a smile on his face, it was obvious that his sworn brother Han Wangran was not dead at all.

"good!"

Li Hou Han Wu responded very simply, which surprised even Ma Kuo. He secretly muttered: Could it be that he saw something?

It has to be said that Ma Kuo underestimated Lihou Hanwu. As a powerful official who competed with Kang Gong and Han Hu for power, how could Lihou Hanwu's vision be inferior to that of the city government?

After giving some instructions to his wife and children in the carriage, Li Hou Han Wu simply got out of the carriage and signaled Ma Kuo to take him immediately to the so-called reception feast.

On the way, Li Hou Han Wu sat on his horse and asked calmly: "Did he ask you to come?"

Ma Kuo opened his mouth and smiled a little reluctantly: "I don't know what Marquis Li said..."

"snort."

Marquis Han Wu said nothing more and waited until Ma Kuo led him to a remote gate of the palace. Then he glanced at Ma Kuo with a bit of ridicule, which made Ma Kuo very embarrassed.

Under the leadership of Ma Kuo, Li Hou Han Wu came to the palace where Han Wangran was resting and walked in.

It has to be said that Han Wu was in a very complicated mood at this time - more of which were disappointment and anger.

He thought that he had treated his sworn brother Han Ran well and had always protected him. However, this brother stabbed him so hard in the end that he became a worthless hostage in the eyes of the Wei people.

The anger in his heart forced him to walk faster and faster. He wanted to rush to his adopted brother Han Ran immediately, grab the latter's clothes and ask: Why are you doing this to me?!

But when he stepped into the inner hall, he suddenly froze because he saw his brother Han Ran lying on a couch.

That look immediately triggered Han Wu's memory: his father, King Jian of Han, was lying on the couch like this before his death.

He walked to the bed and looked at his brother's haggard face in disbelief. For a moment, the anger in his heart completely disappeared.

"Brother, I'm sorry." Han Wangran said with a smile on the couch.

That smile and that gentle tone were just like when King Han Jian told the young Han Wu that he would be fine...

"You...how did you become like this?" Lihou Hanwu asked, with a bit of heartache in his tone, which made him feel a little incredible.

At this time, Ma Kuo had brought a stool, and Li Hou Han Wu was not polite. He sat on the stool and looked at his brother, looking at the haggard face of his younger brother, who was only in his thirties.

"It's just a minor illness." Han Wangran coughed twice, then looked at Lihou Han Wu apologetically, and said: "Sister-in-law, don't blame me. If I had redeemed you and returned to my country, I might not have been able to regain the royal power..."

"..." Li Hou Han Wu's lips moved a few times.

In fact, he was resentful about this, but looking at Han Wangran who looked like this at the moment, he couldn't hate him at all. After staring at his brother with a complicated expression for a while, he sighed sadly: "That's it, go over there. Just let it pass."

After that, he changed the subject and asked: "You didn't just ask Yan Kui to trick me back home by falsely reporting his death, right? Why did you falsely report his death? Is it because of Wei?"

Han Wangran nodded and said: "I managed to contact Qi and Chu to fight against Wei. Originally, I planned to attract Wei's troops and create opportunities for Chu to attack South Korea. I never thought that Zhao Run saw through... ...Therefore, I hoped to make Wei Guo take the bait by falsely reporting the news of his death. Unexpectedly, Wei Guo was too cautious..."

With that said, Han Wangran told Lihou Han Wu everything about Han Pu, the Marquis of Yuanyi.

After all, Li Hou Han Wu was a powerful minister who had been in a high position for a long time, so his vision was naturally different. Of course, he could also see the conspiracy behind the actions of Yuanyi Hou Han Pu, and he immediately frowned.

At this time, I heard Han Wangran say seriously: "Brother, I couldn't forgive you for what happened back then, but now, the country, as well as the ancestors and the country, need you to come forward to take charge of the overall situation again... It is not convenient for me to come forward this time. , Now in the country, only you, my sworn brother, can thwart Wei Guo's conspiracy, cough cough cough, otherwise, otherwise, our country, Korea, may be in danger of collapse this time..."

Having said this, he looked at Lihou Han Wu and continued: "After this national crisis is over, I am willing to return the throne to my sworn brother."

"..."

Even though Han Wu, Marquis of Li, had been an unnoticed hostage in Wei for several years, his state of mind had been tempered and calm, and he was moved after hearing these words.

However, what surprised even him was that he had no thoughts about the throne at all at this moment. Instead, his mood fell heavily to the ground and felt uncomfortable because of Han Wangran's words.

"Are you...dying?"

His lips trembled slightly.
