Chapter 120

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, seven days passed.

Because he did not build a mausoleum during his lifetime, the Han Wang was eventually buried in a hill not too far from Xinzheng City. The environment here was quiet and the feng shui was quite good. Also because of the time, this temporarily rushed tomb was extremely simple. Originally, it would have been impossible for the Han Wang to be buried so quickly, but Ji Wuye seemed to be afraid of long nights and many dreams; the longer the Han Wang's corpse remained in the palace, the greater the risk.

After all, the Han Wang's death... was not clean!

Ji Wuye knew very well what the true cause of the Han Wang's death was.

Therefore, he eventually persuaded the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince was the heir. After the Han Wang died, according to etiquette, although he needed to observe mourning for a year before he could formally ascend to the throne as King, except for lacking a sense of ritual, after the Han Wang died, his substantive status was no different from a King.

At the request of the Crown Prince, the funeral of the Han Wang proceeded as scheduled.

The Prime Minister Zhang Kaidi originally wanted to say something, such as it being against reason, etc., but in the end, he chose to shut his mouth.

The Crown Prince usually had a good relationship with Ji Wuye. If he refuted the Crown Prince's proposal, who knew what kind of liquidation the Crown Prince would carry out against him after he formally succeeded to the throne?

Zhang Kaidi, in the end, was not as clear-headed as imagined.

Having stayed in the position of Prime Minister for many years, he was still attached to power.

Although according to the current situation, the Crown Prince trusted Ji Wuye very much and followed Ji Wuye's orders, Zhang Kaidi firmly believed that people would change. When the Crown Prince was still the heir, he would naturally trust Ji Wuye, but when he really sat in that position and became the true King, he would realize the harm Ji Wuye caused to the State of Han, and then begin to trust him, the Prime Minister.

On the day of the Han Wang's funeral, Xinzheng City was covered in white, and many princes were wearing mourning clothes. Among them, Princess Honglian even fainted from crying. Regardless of whether the Han Wang was incompetent during his lifetime, at least to Honglian, he was indeed a good father, especially since he did not marry Honglian off to Ji Wuye as in the original work, and did not let Princess Honglian lose heart in him.

So for his death, Princess Honglian could be said to be extremely sad and heartbroken.

She still could not accept the bad news of her father's passing.

Xinzheng City was huge. A large city had its bright side, and naturally, it also had its dark side. Not everyone was wearing white for the Han Wang's funeral; many people were hiding in corners, coldly watching the Han Wang's funeral ceremony.

Wei Zhuang and Zinu's Quicksand organization was like this. They had a general impression of the Han Wang, even if the other party was Han Fei's father. On a roof, the two of them stood quietly, watching the procession passing through the long street.

Although the mausoleum was chosen rather hastily, the Han Wang's funeral procession was indeed grand.

In the front, the palace guards opened the way themselves, and behind the guards were the elites of the city defense army. Just these soldiers used to escort the Han Wang's coffin were enough to be considered the full elite.

Besides this, they were all wearing sharp armor and equipped with fine weapons.

Not to mention that in Ji Wuye's expectation, Master Tian Ze and other Baiyue rebels had already been captured by Bai Yifei.

Even if Master Tian Ze was still alive, under the guard of so many troops, he would not be able to make any waves.

At the very least, no accidents could occur at the Han Wang's funeral.

Thinking of Master Tian Ze, Ji Wuye, in the funeral procession, could not help but think of Bai Yifei again.
