Chapter 29

: Broken couple

Han Mu did not want to interrupt the prefect's thoughts, so he stood down and looked at Wang Xianzhi quietly. He wore a wide light green robe, a handsome and thin face, a bit gray temple, and a long frown. This is Wang Xianzhi, an idol in the calligraphy world that many people in later generations respect.

Han Mu felt unreal in his heart, and it could be seen that Wang Xianzhi was not happy. The man who was only forty years looked like an old man at this moment.

Han Mu couldn't help but think of what Yurun said about the princess forcing a marriage, and couldn't help but feel sad for Wang Xianzhi. In Han Mu's opinion, he could not protect the person he loved, and his fate was controlled by others. Even if he was respected, what's the point? Then he thought that he was like this. After a long time, he had tricked him into this strange era. He thought that he could be a young master safely, but he was involved in unknown conspiracy and revenge. Han Mu sighed helplessly.

The sigh woke Wang Xianzhi up from his thoughts. When he saw Han Mu standing there, he hurriedly said, "Nephew Han, why didn't he say hello to me when he came?"

Han Mu clasped his fists and said, "I saw that the adult was thinking about things, but he didn't dare to interrupt him. The adult seemed a little worried."

Wang Xianzhi sighed, "That's true, Han Mu, I want to talk to you about something." He whispered to serve tea again. The young and old sat down to have a tea. The prefect Wang took out a red pill from the brocade box on the table, sent it with tea, and closed his eyes and let out a satisfied sigh.

Han Mu guessed that this is Hanshi Powder, which was popular for the famous scholars of this dynasty. It is said that the skin can be kept white, tender and delicate after taking this medicine. Is this the reason why most of the famous scholars of the Jin Dynasty are white and beautiful men?

Wang Xianzhi opened his eyes, felt a little sweat on his forehead, and said to Han Mu, "Do you want one pill for your good friend? Eating one pill in this cold weather makes you warm all over your body and not afraid of the cold."

Han Mu waved his hand quickly. He knew that this pill was a powder composed of stalactite, purple quartz, white quartz, stone sulfur, and red stone fat. It was sealed with glucosmear on the outside into a pill shape, containing strong toxins. After taking it, the body was hot and often needed to take a walk or eat cold food to suppress it. It also caused itchy skin in the body. In the historical knowledge he learned, the Jin Dynasty people did not wear loose clothes and cloaks for good looks and demeanor. Part of the reason was that if they took pills and tight clothes, their skin would be rubbed and ulcerated.

"Sir, I'm just frank, it's better to eat less of this thing. Do you know that I was in a coma for dozens of days at the beginning of the year because of taking this thing?" Han Mu thought about it and decided to persuade his future father-in-law.

"My nephew, how could I not know? But after taking it for decades, I can't give up easily. I'll be satisfied if you have this kindness." Wang Xianzhi looked at Han Mu with a smile, and his expression was like a kind elder.

"I have something to ask you, you want to tell me the truth." Wang Xianzhi looked at Han Mu's eyes and said.

"Sir, please tell me, I will tell you the truth and not deceive you." Han Mu swore, but his heart opened his mouth.

"Okay, let me ask you, what's wrong with you and Yurun? Don't tell me, you are just poetic friends or ordinary friends." Wang Xianzhi took a sip of tea and asked with his eyes down.

Han Mu was stunned. He thought that this matter would be hidden for a while, but he didn't expect that everything was in control of others. He stammered and couldn't speak.

"I understand. I just warn you that you already have Miss Liu as your wife, so Yurun, you can't get involved; unless you quit the engagement with the Liu family, or Miss Liu is willing to be a concubine." Wang Xianzhi said lightly.

Han Mu's face turned red and said to himself: You have been forced to divorce your beloved wife, and now you are forcing others to divorce your wife again. It's really absurd that you don't want others to do to you. But you can't refute it, so you have to bow your head and keep silent.

Seeing Han Mu's expression, Wang Xianzhi slowed down and said, "I know Han Mu, you are talented and have good character. You are my Yu'er's companion. You can also make some novel things with unique ideas. Recently, the so-called greenhouse seems to have made a lot of money? And all of your martial arts and wisdom are behind others. From my heart, I am willing to betroth Yu'er to you."

Han Muxin said: Since I have so many advantages, why do you still disagree?

I only heard Wang Xianzhi's words: "But my Langya Wang family is a famous family and is one of the best families in my Great Jin Dynasty. How can I tolerate the Wang family women becoming concubines? Do you understand what I said?"

Han Mu understood Wang Xianzhi's difficulties. As the daughter of a prominent family, he would indeed be criticized for marrying an unknown little boy as a concubine. He could ignore it, but as a prominent official of the court, Wang Xianzhi naturally had to consider this influence.

Han Mu carefully considered the words and said, "What the lord said is very true, but Miss Yurun and I are truly in love. The difficulties we are talking about at the moment are just a matter of status. I will never let Yurun be a concubine, which will bring shame to your Wang family. All the women I marry will have the status of a wife."

Wang Xianzhi said in surprise: "There is only one wife. How can you believe that the women you marry have the status of a wife? It doesn't work if you talk to yourself and others don't recognize her. It's extremely absurd!"

"Is it possible for the emperor to issue an edict to grant his wife the identity?" Han Mu suddenly said.

Wang Xianzhi opened his eyes wide and looked at Han Mu in disbelief and said, "The emperor issued an edict to be justified, but can you do it? I can't speak out and beg the emperor. Do you want to be ashamed of me?"

Han Mu said arrogantly: "No need to say the prefect, I ask the emperor to issue an edict; I now agree that the emperor will elect me to the official next spring. For Yurun, I must make meritorious contributions. At that time, please issue an edict to grant her identity, and at the same time, I must also gain an identity worthy of her."

Seeing that he was firm in his words and heroic, Wang Xianzhi was quite happy. He had no doubt that Han Mu could do something. However, this kid did not want to serve the country for loyalty, but to join the government to marry his wife. It really made people smile bitterly.

"That's it. I'm not a human being. As long as there is one day, you will be my son-in-law in the East Side." Wang Taishou said with a smile.

Han Mu thanked and said goodbye. He hurriedly got into the car and rushed to the Liu family. He agreed to Liu Rumei to see her. After so long, he probably had Liu Rumei's little mouth pouted again.

After entering Liu's mansion, he first went to see his fat father-in-law Liu Mingcheng; Liu Mingcheng grabbed Han Mu and said something. The old fox knew everything and knew about the failure of the Northern Expedition. Han Mu did not hide it and told him in detail.

Liu Mingcheng pondered for a while and said, "The Prefect has not been able to tell you. This time, I am not only afraid of internal refugees and bandits, but also in the court."

Han Mu hurriedly asked about the reason. Master Liu said: "Semi Ma Huan Wen is an important official of the country, but this person is quite ambitious and has been domineering for more than ten years. This failure will inevitably damage his reputation, but he is not a person who is waiting to die, and he will inevitably have some actions. I am worried that the court will be in trouble."
