The establishment of the Cao Gang has a lot of things to take over, and Han Jian, as the brain and brain of the Cao Gang, needs him to participate in many things. However, this kind of busyness also tended to stabilize after a day or two, and with his help, the Cao Gang quickly took over all walks of life that originally belonged to Heng Ye, and even the local security that the government was worried about did not have any problems after the Cao Gang took over.

In the past two days, Han Jian was not the busiest person, he came up with ideas, and the errands would be sent by Feng Ju and Dong Sheng. Han Jian can settle himself first, help Xiaohe settle down by the way, and then find someone to go out to inquire about some envoys of the Wei Dynasty. After the fire in Xie Mansion, Han Jian completely cut off contact with his subordinates, and he only knew that the Wei Dynasty had detained Sima Yi and others, and he did not know the specific situation.

After looking for someone to go out to investigate, Han Jian learned that things were not as bad as he imagined, the people of Nanqi did not kill people, Sima Yi and Zhang Xing and others were still safe and sound, but they were under house arrest. It is said that Sima took his place as a state envoy and entered the palace to meet the little emperor and the empress dowager of Southern Qi.

The news was a bit chaotic, and Han Jian couldn't tell whether it was true or not, he still remembered his promise to the empress at the beginning, and he wanted to bring Yang Xi back safely. But Yang Xi's whereabouts in Southern Qi are not so easy to investigate.

Two days later, the affairs of the Cao Gang stabilized, and the operation of the entire Cao Gang was also on the right track. After calming down the place so quickly, absorbing manpower and then starting operations in the industry, Feng Ju and the others also knew that they couldn't cope with it at all with their own skills, if it weren't for Han Jian's guidance, just relying on them as rough people, it would be a mess to take care of.

This afternoon. Han Jian was feeling a little difficult to handle when he got the news from Sima Yi and others, so Dong Sheng took Ma San to the small courtyard where he settled to meet him.

"Brother Li, things are almost handled, we have a celebration banquet tonight, you must attend." Dong Sheng said to Han Jian with a smile.

"Celebration feast? But did you invite someone from the government? Han Jian asked.

"People in the government will invite, but Feng said that if you want to please, please wait for us to stabilize the matter first. This is the celebration banquet of our Cao Gang, they are all their own brothers, and Brother Li should not shirk this time. ”

Because Han Jian had shown his face in the previous assassination, he had shown his voice even if he didn't show up. This is the reason why Han Jian has avoided visitors from outside these days. Dong Sheng and the others naturally thought that Han Jian was afraid of being recognized. Therefore, the celebration banquet also has special arrangements, Dong Sheng said the arrangement of the celebration banquet that night, the celebration banquet was arranged to be held in the Wangxiang Building where Han Jian assassinated Heng Ye before, and this time the Cao Gang covered the third floor of the Wangxiang Building. I want to go to a feast. How can it be at the level of a petty steward.

"Such fanfare. It doesn't seem so good. After hearing this, Han Jian said with some worry.

"Why not?" Dong Sheng asked puzzledly, "Brother Li may as well say it if you have any concerns." ”

Han Jian nodded and said, "Even if it's a celebration banquet." It is also not appropriate to set up a big show, so that both the people and the government will be wary of us, thinking that we are just the first-class Heng Ye before and oppressing the people. And to gather all the stewards like tonight does not give opportunity to those who have a heart? No matter if Hengye's old ministry wants to take revenge, or the government wants to take revenge, it is easy. That's why I can't say it's good. ”

Dong Sheng said: "Oh, it's still Brother Li who thinks about it thoroughly. Originally, I discussed with Feng Dangjia, saying that the brothers were also very tired in the past few days, so I found an opportunity to sit down and let the brothers drink and feast and have a treat. But I never thought that this banquet was also a little out of place, so I went to Feng Dangjia to talk about it. ”

"Hmm. Dong Dangjia go well. ”

Han Jian personally sent Dong Sheng and Ma San out, and returned to the courtyard, Xiaohe came back after washing his clothes, and saw Han Jian taking small steps to greet him with a smile, and his little red face bloomed into a smile, which also looked bright and moving.

"Brother Li, you didn't go out, I just washed my clothes on the river." Xiaohe said.

Han Jian saw that Xiaohe was wearing plain clothes, which was still the one she wore before, although the Cao Gang also prepared new clothes for her, Xiaohe only wore the original one, which shows that she is not a girl who is greedy for vanity.

"Why don't you wear new clothes?" Han Jian asked.

Xiaohe hugged the wooden basin, followed Han Fitness, and pouted: "The new clothes are so beautiful, I ...... I don't dress appropriately, my mother said that my daughter's family can only live long if she is rough and rough. ”

Han Jian smiled, this was the first time he had heard of this theory.

"Xiaohe, what other relatives do you have now? Distant relatives are also counted. Han Jian asked casually.

"There are no relatives anymore." Xiaohe said with some sadness, "There is only one sister, but it is difficult to find, my sister was sold to a big family when I was a child, and I don't even remember what she looked like." ”

Han Jian nodded, now Xiaohe is lonely, if he leaves, Xiaohe still doesn't know how to survive. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh, it would have been difficult for him to go north, and it would be even more difficult if he brought Xiaohe.

Han Jian didn't bother with such a tangled problem, anyway, it would be difficult for him to make the trip in the next few days.

The two returned to the small courtyard, Xiaohe hung his clothes on the rope, facing the sun, and a flower hairpin on Xiao Nizi's head looked very eye-catching. Han Jian didn't remember what ornaments the little girl had worn.

"What's on your head?" Han Jian asked.

"Oh, it was given to me by an older sister when I was doing laundry. One of her handkerchiefs fell into the river, and I found a bamboo pole to help her pick it up, and she gave it to me. Brother Li, is it good-looking? Xiaohe said, a pair of smiling shallow, very cute appearance.

When Han Jian saw Xiaohe, he would inevitably think of Wen'er, who was the same age as Xiaohe. Although the two have similarities, Wen'er is more lazy and silly, while Xiaohe looks very light and bright, a girl full of sunshine.

"Beautiful." Han Jian praised and said, "It seems that the sister who gave you the hairpin also knows how to appreciate your beauty, and this hairpin is very compatible with you." ”

"Hmm. That sister seemed to care very much about the piece of brocade, and I couldn't help her catch it, but when I saw that she almost jumped into the river to pick it up, I hurriedly went to find a bamboo pole to help her get it. Seeing the surprise of her holding the piece of brocade, I think it should have been given to her by a very important person. I don't want a hairpin, and she has to give it to me, I can't refuse. Xiaohe described the scene.

Han Jian smiled, now Xiaohe has reached the age of the beginning of love, but because of his lonely background, he should not be tempted. She shouldn't know what a lover is yet.

A woman cherishes a piece of brocade, and it can't be said that it was not given by the lover. However, it is always the woman who embroiders the brocade and gives it to the man, and it is rare for the man to give the brocade to the woman.

Xiaohe looked at Han Jian again and said, "Brother Li, that sister is very beautiful, she is on a very beautiful flower boat, if you have time, let's go and thank her, right?" ”

Hearing the words of the flower boat, Han Jian looked at Xiaohe, and seemed to understand something, could it be that the woman in Xiaohe's mouth was a woman in the red dust?

"If you want to go, just go by yourself, why do you want me to go with you?" Han Jian asked with a smile.

Xiaohe's cheeks were red, his head was slightly chinned, and he said shyly: "Xiaohe wants to take Brother Li with him, so that sister knows that Xiaohe is not alone......"

Han Jian smiled and responded casually. But there is also some emotion in my heart, Xiaohe now completely regards him as a reliance, and just left, I am indeed sorry for this little girl.

After a short while, Ma San came over alone with a smile, and Han Jian knew that the matter of the celebration banquet was almost finished when he looked at him.

"Hall Master Li, Miss Xiaohe, I'm here to disturb." Because the gate of the courtyard was open, Ma San stood at the door and saluted.

Usually, Feng Ju and Dong Sheng still call Han Jian "Brother Li" because the two are the leaders of the Cao Gang, and Ma San has to be much more respectful to Han Jian.

"Third Brother Ma is polite, please come in." Han Jian greeted him with a smile.

"Brother Li, Third Brother Ma, you have something to say, Xiaohe will serve you tea." When Xiaohe saw Ma Sanlai, she seemed to think of herself as the hostess of the courtyard, and hurriedly went to pour tea.

"No, Miss Xiaohe......" Ma San wanted to stop him, but unfortunately he didn't speak as fast as Xiaohe's legs and feet. Seeing Xiaohe's diligent appearance, Ma San sighed, "Miss Xiaohe is really virtuous. ”

Han Jian smiled and asked, "How was the previous celebration banquet?" ”

"That's what I'm here for. Dong Dangjia's past told Feng Dangjia what Li Tang Master meant, and Feng Dangjia also said that it was inconsiderate. Feng said that he would have to invite this banquet, but if he changed places, he would not invite too many people, so as not to be too public. The feast of the brothers below will be prepared by each church itself, and it will not be very large, so as not to show off. ”

Han Jian nodded and said, "That's the best." ”

Ma San suddenly smiled and said: "Hall Master Li, today's banquet is a good place to go, it is on the flower boat, do you know, on the Qinhuai River, the most famous thing is the flower boat, and then decide which boat it is, and I will come over and take Hall Master Li over again." ”

When Han Jian heard that he was going to have a banquet on the flower boat, he knew that these Jianghu guests were full of food and began to think about lust. This is Sima Zhao's heart, everyone knows, what else can you do when you are full of wine and food on the flower boat?

"Okay." Han Jian originally wanted to say something more, but after thinking about it, it was not good for him to put forward too many opinions. Anyway, in which era, wine, power, and wealth are all hung together, and some things are in vain if he wants to stop them, which will make Feng Ju and others dissatisfied with him.

Send Ma San away. Han Jian was about to find a few more brothers from the torture hall to go out and inquire about some news, but at this time, Ke Qu'er came uninvited, and did not go through the door directly, but climbed in through the wall.

"Miss Ke, you're used to being a thief, and you never go through the front door, right?" When Han Jian saw Ke Qu'er, he knew that she had come to urge him to see her master, so his temper was not very good.

"Hmph. You're the thief. Ke Qu'er frowned slightly, and said coldly, "You said that you would go with me to see the master after the matter was handled, but now that you have been given two more days, the matter should be almost handled, right?" Let's go together when we're done! (To be continued......)
