Prince Yu's Mansion.

He was wearing a mourning clothes and his face was pale. In the past few days, Prince Yu's life has been like torture. Against the white clothes, his face seemed to have been possessed by some demon and monster and sucked all his blood.

The little demise lasts for three days and the big demise lasts for seven days. The princess's coffin will not be buried until seven days after her death. As the eldest son, Yang Jing will be guarded in the mourning hall for seven days.

What is small and what is big?

Look at people.

Yang Zhuo now only wants one thing to avenge his mother. He doesn't believe that Xiahou Zhuo had no plans to break into the palace that day. His sister Xiahou Yuli was hiding among the performers, most of whom were the commander.

He didn't even believe what Song Chunming, the manager of the royal family, said before his death. In his opinion, it was all bullshit lies. Whoever believes is a fool.

Can a small county magistrate make people like Song Chunming work hard for it?

These days, he knelt down here and kept watching. He thought about the whole thing thousands of times in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that these things were inseparable from Xiahou Zhuo.

His father, Prince Yu, was about to raise an army. Yang Zhuo felt that it would be difficult to break the capital with the strength of the Jizhou army. At that time, his father would be the Emperor of Great Chu, and he would be the legitimate Prince of Great Chu.

My mother is from the Yuwen family, and my father has the power to dominate the government and the Yuwen family is supported by her behind her back. It is difficult to succeed if she fails.

The incompetence that Xiahou Zhuo had shown before was revealed when his father was about to rise up.

He felt that Xiahou Zhuo was the person behind the scenes. If the killer killed the princess, his father would lose the support of the Yuwen family, and his father might make Xiahou Zhuo's mother a princess. In that way, Xiahou Zhuo became the prince of the Great Chu in the future.

Thinking of this, Yang Zhuo's eyes could almost drip blood. It was hatred, hatred that had been engraved into his bones.

He didn't think about anything else these days, but he just wanted to get rid of Xiahou Zhuo's family of three. None of them could be kept. He wanted to kill them, and even to pieces.

But he didn't know what he could do now. The people around his mother, such as Jing Yanli and others, were already dead. The prince of the Feather King had lost the power from the Yuwen family.

His father absolutely could not support him, so he could not use his father's strength at all.

Then who else can he use?

On the fourth day after the princess was assassinated, Yang Zhuo finally thought of who could use it...the Xu family.

This was what he thought of after thinking about countless people. The reason why he could think of the Xu family was just because of the conflict between the Xu family and Li Chi, and Xiahou Zhuo was obviously standing on Li Chi's side.

When Yang Zhuo thought of this, he stood up. His close guard Chen Fengli quickly reached out to help him. He had been kneeling for too long. Yang Zhuo's legs were not smooth, and when he stood up, his legs were bent involuntarily.

"Criminal, be careful."

Chen Fengli asked in a low voice: "Crown Prince, are you going to the toilet?"

Yang Zhuo nodded: "You go with me."

Chen Fengliu held Yang Zhuo's hand and walked out to a place where there were few people. Yang Zhuo stopped and looked at Chen Fengliu and asked, "I remember, your home seems to be from Yanzhou?"

Chen Fengli replied: "The prince is very memorable. He just asked me casually before, but I remembered it. My family did live in Yanzhou for generations. I joined the army when the prince was guarding the border. Later, I stayed with the prince to do things. In short, I haven't been home for many years."

"oh......"

Yang Zhuo asked: "Who else is there in the family?"

Chen Fengli shook his head and said, "I haven't had a letter from home for a long time. I once wrote a letter back, but there was no reply. Later, I asked someone to check it out and said that my family had moved away, but I couldn't find out where I moved."

Yang Zhuo said: "That's really pitiful to you. In this way, I'll ask my father to send someone.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

I'll send a letter to Yanzhou and help you check it out in the name of the royal palace. There should be news... You haven't been home for many years, and you should miss your family very much."

Chen Fengli quickly said, "I will definitely miss you, but after so many years, I have become accustomed to it."

Yang Zhuo smiled and said, "I happened to have something to ask you for help. If you finish it for me, I will assign you some staff, and then give you the documents from the royal palace and give you a large sum of silver. You go back to Yanzhou to find your family. The blood is thicker than water, so how can you not find it?"

Chen Fengli's heart tightened. He knew that there might be something shocking in His Royal Highness's casual words.

"Please give me instructions."

Chen Fengli lowered his head and said, "No matter what, the prince will tell me, I will do my best."

Yang Zhuo smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. You can send me a letter to the Xu family later and hand it over to the old man of the Xu family."

He lowered his voice and said, "You can only know about this letter. You can no longer mention it to anyone in the palace, even my father."

"yes."

How could Chen Fengli say no? He could only accept it.

Soon after returning to the room, Yang Zhuo picked up a pen and wrote a letter to Chen Fengli. Chen Fengli immediately left Prince Yu's mansion and arrived at the Xu family soon.

It was precisely because Prince Yu sent someone to deliver the letter and asked to hand it over to the old master of the Xu family that when the news was reported to the old master, the old master did not immediately express his opinion or he did not see him.

Xu Gengmao has been in charge of the Xu family for many years. He has become the helm of this huge family when he was in his forties. It has been another forty or fifty years now. Half of his life, he has been a decision maker.

Such people have a higher horizon than ordinary people, a deeper cunning than ordinary people, and a far more thinking than ordinary people.

"The prince has never had any contact with my Xu family."

Xu Gengmao looked at his eldest son Xu Han. He was also a white-haired old man. He was over 70 years old. He had been waiting for his father for decades to take over. He thought he couldn't wait, but he might have walked in front of his father.

His only hope now is that his son Xu Yuanqing can take over the identity of this leader.

But looking at the old man's body, it is not a big problem to survive for another ten or eight years...

"What do you think?"

Xu Gengmao asked.

Xu Han quickly replied: "Father, maybe he has asked for our Xu family. A few days after the princess passed away, the prince suddenly sent someone here, probably because there was no one around him. After the princess died, the Yuwen family's support for the royal palace would probably have become an unknown number."

Xu Gengmao nodded: "You think carefully, I guess it's probably the case. The prince Yang Zhuo lost his mother and the support of the Yuwen family. He is now eager to hope that someone can stand on his side."

Xu Gengmao said: "If I had sent someone for the first time, I would see you. It would seem that the Xu family is a little light. Go and see what the poor prince wants to ask our Xu family to do."

Xu Han hurriedly said, "It's a bit inappropriate for me to see you, so let Yuanqing meet you?"

Xu Gengmao said: "He? I'm afraid he doesn't have a deep experience and is too young to be confused by the prince's people."

Xu Han sighed: "Father, Yuan Qing is already fifty-three."

Xu Gengmao was stunned: "Even Yuanqing is in his fifties?"

He shook his head and said, "Then let Yuanqing go and meet him... Yuanqing is already in his fifties. How old are you?"

Xu Han said: "Father, I'm already seventy-one."

Xu Gengmao glanced at him: "You are only seventy-one? Why do you look older than me?"

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

of."

Xu Hanxin said, Father, guess why?

Xu Gengmao asked: "You have too many worries, so you look old."

Xu Hanxin said you really guessed it right.

Half an hour later, Xu Yuanqing stood respectfully in front of Xu Gengmao, leaned over and said, "Grandfather, he probably knew the purpose of the prince's visit, and he also sent someone to send a handwritten letter."

Xu Gengmao was so old that he was not blind or deaf. He took the letter and looked at it, and then laughed.

"Just a pride."

Xu Yuanqing immediately understood that the boss was not enough to make plans... The old man meant that this kid could not share the big things.

He leaned over and said, "Then I'll find an excuse to get over it."

Xu Gengmao shook his head: "Otherwise... he really has no one to use it, so he would bite the bullet and ask my Xu family to come to me, but he is unwilling to give up his identity. In this letter, there are still two or three points of being arrogant and domineering, asking others to do this, so he is just a scheming person."

He looked at Xu Yuanqing and said, "I don't have any scheming. He wants to use my Xu family, but he can be used by my Xu family. Now all the families in the city will think about whether the Yuwen family will support the King of Feathers. They are all looking forward and looking back. The originally wagging tails over, but now they are tilting their tails up again."

He smiled and said, "But this is the opportunity. With the Yuwen family supporting the Yuwang King, no matter how powerful our Xu family is, they are just a small follower. Without the Yuwen family, as long as the Xu family makes a little effort, the Yuwang King will have to rely on us."

He ordered: "When the funeral is over in the seven-day period, you will go to see the prince yourself, but I can probably guess what he wants to do and what else he wants to do... It's just to get rid of Xiahou Zhuo, you can condom him."

Xu Yuanqing asked, "Then, what about our ruler?"

Xu Gengmao said: "If the prince can help our Xu family take over the military power of the first army in the Jizhou army, he will agree to him."

Xu Yuanqing said nervously: "The King of Yu cares so much about Xiahou Zhuo. Once he knows that our Xu family will interfere..."

"You're still too young."

Xu Gengmao smiled: "King Yu... was brave but not resourceful when he was young. Now he has changed. He is a little cunning, but he is still a reckless man in his bones. He thinks he is the one who decides everything?"

After saying this, he looked at Xu Yuanqing and said, "Let me go back and think about it carefully. If you understand it, I will feel at ease with the Xu family in your hands in the future. If you can't figure it out, I can't hand over the Xu family to you."

These words scared Xu Yuanqing's face so pale.

His father was unable to survive the day when the clan power was obtained. If he lost this opportunity again, his son would probably not have it either.

At this moment, Xu Yuanqing's mind was twisting and turns. Finally, a light appeared in his mind. He hurriedly asked: "Master Jiedu?"

"Ha ha ha ha......"

Xu Gengmao smiled and said, "At last, it's not that stupid. If you send someone to send an invitation, you say I'm about my birthday, but because of the princess's affairs, you can only invite the Jiedushi to have a meal in private. If the Jiedushi is willing to come, it will be much heavier than a prince."

He waved his hand and said, "You go and prepare for the prince first. If the governor comes in a few days, you can sit with him."

"yes."

Xu Yuanqing, who was in his fifties, was so happy that he was a child under 60 years old, and he was the kind of child who was allowed to go to the table to eat with guests for the first time because of this sentence.

The world is in a mess, and no bigwig with some strength in hand doesn't want to get a share of the pie?
