The Han Mansion was relatively well preserved during the Jinling War, and was only requisitioned by the rebels to use it as a barracks.

Except for the dirty ones and the fact that many of the doors and windows are damaged, the main buildings are largely well preserved and have been cleaned up and renovated.

Although today's ceremony for the canonization of the queen is held in the palace, there are women in the Han Mansion today, and they are canonized as uncles and concubines whose status is only slightly inferior to the noble concubine.

Jinling was short of materials, and the Han family sent people to Hangzhou and Huzhou a month ago to purchase silk and satin, candles, gold and silverware.

Today, the two or three hundred lanterns inside and outside the Han Mansion are all made of red silk.

The interior and exterior courtyard walls have been re-plastered, and the doors and windows have been repainted after repairs.

The courtyard was also sprinkled with a layer of fine sand inside and out.

A large number of damaged rare trees and plants have also been replanted from other places, and even two deer and two golden chickens have been caught and stocked in the garden behind Mingjutang to show luck; The shallow ponds that have been cleaned up are also stocked with new koi.

The royal dowry was sent to the door yesterday, full of hundreds of boxes of objects placed on half the street, this morning just served as the young eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Jiang Shu took the officials of Zongzheng Temple and the Ministry of Rites to the door to announce the decree, and rewarded the old and young from the top and bottom of the Han Mansion, and then took the concubine to the palace.

Although the Han Mansion also held a wedding banquet today, Han Daoming, Han Daochang, and Han Jun, who could barely get the rank of the court class during the court meeting, accompanied Han Wenhuan, the old man who was awarded the title of Marquis of Guangliang after His Majesty ascended the throne, to the palace to participate in the queen's canonization ceremony.

The situation is a little special, with Yang Yuanpu's permission, Old Man Han, Han Daoming, and Han Daochang were able to go back before dark to socialize with the guests and friends who came to Han's Mansion to attend the wedding banquet today.

In addition to the old man who was given the title of county marquis, Han Daoming was not only in charge of the household department, but also one of the ministers who could participate in the privy council.

Today's Han Mansion is the prime minister's court, and the Han Mansion has women entering the palace, unlike the lower status of the nine concubines and the twenty-seventh wife, Han Daoming is also qualified to be called the country's father-in-law, which is double wealth and prominence.

Han Wenhuan stood in the palace for most of the day, his body was a little unable to support it, and when he returned to the house, he did not go to entertain guests, but first went back to the inner house to rest, wanting to lie down and rest, but he was not sleepy at all, so he asked the maid to help him up, and sat in the courtyard to see the yellow stamens of a cluster of spring flowers in the corner had begun to wither in early summer.

"Grandfather ......"

Han Wenhuan turned around and saw that it was Han Chengmeng standing at the gate of the courtyard and calling him.

"Why don't you stay with the guests in the front yard?" Han Wenhuan asked.

"The official who went to Xuzhou to deliver the decree returned to Beijing today, Han Dong also came to Jinling with the ship, and just sent a congratulatory gift to leave, and the grandson thought that his grandfather might want to see someone from Xuzhou, so he temporarily kept him and came to ask his grandfather." Han Chengmeng said.

"Uh-huh." Han Wenhuan glanced at Han Chengmeng with great satisfaction, and asked him to invite someone from Xuzhou to the inner house to talk.

After a while, Han Chengmeng led Han Dong and two other sturdy young men over.

Han Dong was dressed in brown civilian clothes, twenty-six or seventeen years old, and he had a short mustache on his lips, which made him look elegant and mature, and it was hard to imagine that four or five years ago he was only a low-level slave in the Han Mansion, and he still had to be sponsored by his uncle Han Laoshan to study in a private school for two or three years, and he learned some brush and ink.

The two sturdy young men behind Han Dong were wearing leather armor and brown uniforms, and they knew at a glance that they were military attaches from Xuzhou, but Qi Huan remembered that this young man was in Langxi, and he was the guard named Han Donghu next to Han Qian or some other military attaché.

Han Dong came to Jinling on behalf of Xuzhou this time, and it was only natural that he would be escorted by a military attache from Xuzhou.

"Han Laoshan, his health is okay, your father and mother are still used to living in Xuzhou?" Han Wenhuan pulled Han Dong to the side and sat down, chattering about the shortcomings of his parents, he still remembered that Han Dong was Han Laoshan's nephew, and later succeeded to Han Laoshan's knees, but then he ransomed his father, his mother and brothers and sisters who were originally slaves of Han's house, and then took them to Xuzhou.

"My father's body and bones are okay, this time I also wanted to come to Jinling to visit the old marquis, the adults were worried that his body could not support it, and there was no permission, I was born in Chenzhong, he still complained that the adults underestimated his body and bones - my uncle and aunt couldn't stay idle in Xuzhou, saying that since I passed on to my father, they would earn a piece of furniture for my younger brother in Xuzhou, and they settled in Qianyang and opened a shop to do some small business." Han Dong sat cautiously on the side and talked about his family's situation in Xuzhou. According to the rules of the world, when he succeeded to Han Laoshan's knee as an heir, he would call Han Laoshan his father and his biological father his uncle.

At this time, Han Dong served as an assistant in Feng Yi's Licao and Post Division, mainly replacing Han Laoshan, who was retired, and handled some affairs on behalf of the inner government.

Han Qian accepted the canonization of the Marquis of Qianyang, whether it was him personally or as a Xuzhou under the rule of the Great Chu State, according to the rules, he contributed to the canonization ceremony of the queen and the concubine.

Feng Yi joined the army as the Licao who was in charge of Xuzhou, and Han Dong took Han Donghu and others to Jinling City with the herald, which was to pay tribute on behalf of Han Qian and Xuzhou.

Of course, Xuzhou put on a humble posture towards Jinling, and of course the play had to be performed in full, so Feng Yi and Han Dong also sent a congratulatory gift to the Han Mansion - Feng Yi knew that they would not be treated, so he simply didn't come over in person, so as not to be embarrassed.

Although the congratulatory gift is a special product of Xuzhou, more than ten pieces of medicine spotted cloth, which is not worth much, but it also represents a "heart" of Xuzhou, right?

Han Wenhuan also pulled Han Dong to ask some parents for short words, and when Han Dong said goodbye again, he no longer kept him in the mansion for a banquet, but asked Han Chengmeng to send Han Dong and them out of the mansion.

After a while, Han Chengmeng, who had sent Han Dong and them away, walked back and saw the old man Han Wenhuan standing in the courtyard, looking at the koi swimming in the pond, and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty's wariness of Xuzhou, this time it should be alleviated, right?" ”

Han Wenhuan glanced sideways at this grandson who was not a descendant, and asked, "What do you think of Han Qian?" ”

"Han Qian's talent is unmatched, maybe this is why His Majesty is suspicious, not to mention that there are rumors that Han Qian and His Majesty actually knew that the life of the first emperor was threatened by the Anning Palace, and His Majesty was determined to conceal this matter," Han Chengmeng said, "Doesn't it matter that these people who spread these rumors behind the scenes have their own intentions, but the truth may be the case?" ”

"Han Qian has teased the Han family as a chess piece several times, you don't have any ideas?" Han Wenhuan asked, as if he remembered something, and said, "Oh, your second uncle and I went to Xuancheng to recruit Gu Zhilong, but I really don't know that Han Qian's intention was to lure Gu Zhilong out so that he could attack Langxi, which is different from what he said to the outside." ”

"Sun Er's guess is the same, my grandfather will have no hesitation when he knows about this, but the second uncle and Han Jun are not such people," Han Chengmeng said, "As for the Han family becoming a pawn in Han Qian's hands several times, it is difficult to say, but it is better than following Anning Palace and the prince all the way to the black!" ”

"You figured this out yourself?" Han Wenhuan asked.

"For the matter of the little sister entering the palace, Wei Yan has also returned to Jinling in the past few days, I have the best relationship with him, and I pondered it when I was drinking," Han Chengmeng said, "It stands to reason that Han Qian is the marquis, and the little sister is also in the palace as a concubine, some things should stop, but Wei Yan and I always feel not very steady, and I am afraid that I will be reprimanded if I talk to my father, so I thought of asking my grandfather what you think." ”

"If you can do this, it will be excellent, but you and Wei Yan must know that the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop," Han Wenhuan sighed and said, "Think about it, if Your Majesty and Han Qian are at peace, Your Majesty will sharpen your sword at this time, who will be uncomfortable?" Even for the sake of their own stability, the DPRK and China don't want His Majesty to be safe with Han Qian? Others don't want His Majesty to be at peace with Han Qian, and they have nothing to do with Han Qian, who is far away in Xuzhou, but it doesn't mean that they have nothing to think about at all. His Majesty transferred Shen Yang back to the center this time, but the political affairs hall was discussed, and Shang Wensheng was asked to replace Shen Yang to go to Guangde Mansion as the prefect, which was uneasy and kind......"

Han Chengmeng certainly knew in his heart that the key turning point in the Jinling War was the strong rise of Han Qian's Chishan Army formed by recruiting slaves and maids on the basis of the remnants of the Taowu military household and the Xuzhou military attache team.

After Han Qian handed over the military power, the Zuo Guangde Army, which was reorganized by the Chishan Army, although the grassroots military attachés returned to Xuzhou with Han Qian, and the ordinary generals were dismantled and integrated into the armies, no longer existed, but as the three counties of Guangde, Langxi, and Anji, where the Chishan Army generals were concentrated, it was still undeniable that Han Qian had an irreplaceable influence there.

And Shang Wensheng, as the head of the Lishui Shang family, was not particularly prominent among the courtiers from the former officials to the six ministers of the Jinling Incident; After the Jinling Incident, Shang Wensheng was forced to submit to the Anning Palace and became the "crown prince" of the grandson Yang Fen, but he was always dissatisfied with the Anning Palace and secretly contacted Yang En.

After recovering Jinling, Shang Wensheng and his eldest son successfully rebelled against the generals who supervised their crossing of the river and defected to the south bank, not only reunited with their second son Shang Zhongwen, but also stayed in Jinling.

However, the Chishan Army rose at the northern foot of Fuyu Mountain, and in addition to attacking and destroying Liyang City, the most critical battle was the capture of Shangjiabao. Shang Wensheng's second son, Shang Zhongjie, also escaped early and survived, but the Shang clan who died at the hands of the Chishan Army had to have eighty if not a hundred.

No matter how high Han Qian's posture was before, as long as His Majesty had doubts about Han Qian in his heart, the decision of the princes of the Political Affairs Hall to use Shang Wensheng to serve as the prefect of Guangde Mansion meant that it was worth playing.

Han Wenhuan continued: "Although Shang Wensheng may not be stupid enough to be used by others, but if they fail once, if they don't stop, where will the next target be chosen? ”

"Our Han family?" Han Chengmeng gasped and said.

"It's not necessarily our Han family, but they won't stop easily. Your father and your second uncle can be careful, but Han Jun, Han Duan, and Shuhui, who stayed in Jinling as a palace and didn't dare to go to other places, are still too young and easy to be manipulated," Han Wenhuan's brows furrowed extremely tightly at this moment, and he said to Han Chengmeng, "After this incident, you and Wei Yan will take their wives and children out of Jinling as much as possible, whether they can come back in the future, and don't come back as much as possible!" If there's something going on, I'll be the first to send you a message......"

"......" Han Chengmeng was shocked, he and his brother-in-law Qiao Weiyan always felt that they were not as down-to-earth as they looked, and felt that things were not as simple as they seemed, but they were not at the point where the current situation faced by the Han family would be grim and it was necessary to plan to avoid the disaster of the nest in the eyes.
