Chapter 629: Collected for You (I)
Han Jian and Yang Xiuxiu arrived outside Ye'an Pavilion, but they didn't see Yang Rui immediately. It turned out that Yang Rui was still meeting some people, many of whom were heads of big families in Luoyang. also includes the current head of the Lu family.
Lu Fengning did not come to the palace alone, and Yang Rui's meeting was still very formal. When everyone came out, because there were too many people, Han Jian almost couldn't tell who was who. These people are still different from the official eunuch families like the Ning family, many of these families themselves have declined, and those that have not declined have not been reused by the imperial court recently. It wasn't until these people left that Yang Rui summoned Han Jian and Yang Xiuxiu.
Seeing Yang Rui, things were already going very smoothly, and the place in the palace was also a place where Han Jian often stayed, and he was already familiar with Ye'an Pavilion as well as the hall of his own house. On Yang Xiuxiu's side, she was slightly reprimanded by Yang Rui, mainly about Lu Fengning.
"Peace your marriage ......"
As soon as Yang Rui spoke, he was interrupted by Yang Xiuxiu: "Back to Your Majesty, one concubine is enough, don't worry about Your Majesty." ”
Yang Rui's face was a little ugly, originally she thought that she was well-intentioned, but she was pushed back by Yang Xiuxiu so hard, which made her a little faceless.
"Then King Dong, did you meet Lu Qing's family when you entered the palace?" Yang Rui suddenly looked at Han Jian and asked.
Han Jianxin said why did Yang Rui ask him this?
"I once had a relationship with the palace gate." Han Jian said, "I didn't talk deeply, it seems that Lu Gongzi is in a hurry to go back." ”
Yang Rui smiled lightly and said: "This time, Lu Qing's family is the king of the east, and you recommended him as the court lieutenant Shaofu, and I mentioned it in front of him. He said that he was going to hold a banquet to entertain the king of the east, but I wonder if he said it to the king of the east? ”
Han Jianxin said that Yang Rui wouldn't be going to dig a pit and bury him, right?
"There are mentions." Han Jian said truthfully.
"Then the king of the East should go well and enhance the communication between colleagues." Yang Rui looked at Yang Xiuxiu again and said, "Anping, you should also go, whether it's my order, or whatever." If you don't go, I'll be disappointed. ”
Yang Xiuxiu is speechless, since Yang Rui is so full of words, she seems to have no reason to refuse.
After Yang Rui finished speaking, as if he didn't give Han Jian and Yang Xiuxiu a chance to refuse, he issued an eviction order in front of the little eunuch and the palace maid. It means to let Han Jian and Yang Xiuxiu go forward immediately.
Originally, Han Jian didn't take it seriously, after all, he and Lu Fengning were not familiar with each other, and it could even be said that there were some grievances in it. It's good now, and it's a little weird to go to Lu Fengning's banquet. Looking at Yang Xiuxiu again, this party seems even more indifferent.
Han Jian felt that it might be the tone in which he spoke just now that made Yang Rui feel some crisis, which made Yang Rui move the idea that he had to break up with Yang Xiuxiu. And letting Yang Xiuxiu go to Lu Fengning's banquet obviously has the meaning of threading the needle again. Han Jian sighed in his heart, was it a mistake to let him go here?
When he entered the palace, Han Jian and Yang Xiuxiu were together. When they left the palace, the two were still walking together. This time, Yang Xiuxiu still followed Han Fitness, far away but not close. Han Jian stopped and wanted to say something to Yang Xiuxiu, but Yang Xiuxiu also stopped and deliberately did not approach Han Jian, without even saying a word.
Han Jianxin said, you just avoid me like this, don't you need me to relieve you for a while? remembered that when Yang Xiuxiu deliberately used the stubble to let him out of the siege, he could feel this woman's shrewdness. What she doesn't like herself, definitely not forced. Instead, let someone who seems very unrelated talk to help him. Han Jianxin said that he was also a "kind-hearted eye" and actually helped her. Now people still don't appreciate it.
Arrived at the gate of the palace. Han Jian turned sideways and asked, "Where is the county lord going?" ”
Yang Xiuxiu couldn't help but answer now, and said in a somewhat stiff tone: "Your Majesty ordered the little girl to go to the banquet, and the little woman didn't have a reason to excuse herself." ”
"What about peers?" Han Jian asked
"Don't dare." Yang Xiuxiu said a word, her face was still a little cold. This made Han Jian feel a little annoyed.
Until now, Yang Xiuxiu still has a stinky face, looking like someone else owes her a few dollars. This kind of thing should not be Yang Xiuxiu, she took the initiative to say it. Do you want to ask yourself?
Since Yang Xiuxiu was not ready to go with him, Han Jian also respected Yang Rui's order and had to go to a banquet specially set up for him by Lu Fengning. He directly beckoned the guards to get on the horse, ignored Yang Xiuxiu, who came on foot, and rode directly to the heavenly residence in the south of the city. At this time, Han Jian naturally couldn't notice Yang Xiuxiu's ugly face. Compared to Han Jian's face. Yang Xiuxiu's face was forced by Yang Rui, and she wanted to get angry. Of course, she didn't dare to be angry in front of Yang Rui, and she had to endure it in front of Han Jian, even if she was like this, she could only bear her anger and couldn't vent it.
It was already dusk, and Han Jian was riding a horse in the city, and he was not walking fast.
It is already a long way to reach the Heavenly Residence, even in the inner city, it is four or five miles away.
When he arrived outside the Heavenly Residence, Han Jian didn't expect Lu Fengning to wait for his arrival outside early, which surprised him.
"It is an honor for His Royal Highness the King of the East to come." Lu Fengning stepped forward, and he came out to greet some people who seemed to be children of the Luoyang family. should all be Lu Fengning's friends on weekdays.
Han Jian didn't ask Lu Fengning why he knew that he would come over, and was about to go in, when Lu Fengning suddenly looked at Han Jian, and his eyes were also extremely bright. Han Jian could tell from his glowing look that it was Yang Xiuxiu who had come.
"County Lord......"
"Excuse me." Yang Xiuxiu walked a few steps quickly, and after following Han Fitness, "Today's little woman is on the order of His Majesty, and she accompanied Dongwang to come to the banquet. Lu Shaofu doesn't have to be too polite, when the little woman doesn't come. ”
Lu Fengning's face was a little embarrassed. was directly rejected by Yang Xiuxiu at the gate of the palace, which already made him feel very faceless, and now Yang Xiuxiu threw his face at him in front of so many people, making him even more embarrassed. But Lu Fengning usually maintains his demeanor in front of a group of friends, but here in Yang Xiuxiu, he doesn't care about any face, and seems to think that Yang Xiuxiu is already very lucky to come. At least it shows that Yang Xiuxiu is still interesting to him.
Thinking of this, Lu Fengning received it more enthusiastically.
Han Jian glanced at Yang Xiuxiu sideways, took advantage of Lu Fengning to arrange his seat with Yang Xiuxiu first, glanced at Yang Xiuxiu and said, "Didn't the county lord say that you don't need to go with you?" ”
"Dongwang seems to be a little stingy." Yang Xiuxiu had a sly smile on her face, and this smile made Han Jian feel like he was being used.
Han Jianxin said, you woman, wait!
Originally, he didn't want to have anything with Yang Xiuxiu, but now Yang Rui's side deliberately made it bad, coupled with Yang Xiuxiu's stinky face, it also made Han Jian feel that it didn't matter if he was a little there.
Shangtianju is a small inn in the south of the city, with dining places on the first and second floors, and guest rooms for guests. But because of Lu Fengning's charter, there were no other guests in the entire Heavenly Residence that day, all of them were people found by Lu Fengning.
Waiting for Lu Fengning to personally lead Han Jian and Yang Xiuxiu to the table, Lu Fengning said with a smile: "Your Highness is not drunk today, there is a guest room here, if Your Highness is drunk and can't go back, it is better to rest here for one night." A good room has been prepared for His Royal Highness the East King. ”
Han Jianxin said that it should be more than just a room. When Lu Fengning went to tell the Lu family to do things before, he heard something at the tip of his ear, and Lu Fengning asked the servant to go back and call the maid over to say that he was ready to wait. Needless to say, I also know that Lu Fengning is also ready to thank him with beauty.
For this kind of thing, it is not strange among the magnates in Luoyang. Lu Fengning is not married after all, otherwise Han Jian has such a great "favor", it is not too much for him to repay Han Jian with his wife and concubine. And often when some powerful people seek retribution among themselves, they are evolving in this direction.
Han Jian didn't say anything, he knew very well how much he had drunk, if he came to such a dinner and let himself get drunk, it would be a little ridiculous and generous.
Before arriving at the main table on the second floor, all the guests Lu Fengning had found also arrived.
There are not many banquets set up by Lu Fengning, they are all on the second floor, there are six or seven tables, but there are several screens separating them. Han Jian and Yang Xiuxiu's seats are naturally in front of the main table, Han Jian's seat is in the main seat, and Lu Fengning does not dare to make a mistake, and it is not suitable for Yang Xiuxiu, who is the county lord, to sit elsewhere, so he and Yang Xiuxiu are left and right to accompany Han Jian. Let Han Jian feel like he has been a light bulb.
The entire main table was a group of young talents, none of whom seemed to be over twenty-five years old. However, except for Yang Xiuxiu, all the people who came today were men, and there were no female dependents.
Han Jian was not polite, he sat down directly, Lu Fengning immediately toasted Han Jian, poured himself another glass, raised his glass and said: "It's an honor to be here today, and I will give His Royal Highness a glass when His Royal Highness the King of the East is here." ”
After that, he drank a glass of wine with his neck up, as if he deliberately wanted Han Jian to see that this wine was fine.
The rest of the people looked at Han Jian, Han Jian lifted the wine glass, looked at the color of the wine, and then took a drink. At this time, there is no need to be too polite, since it is to come to the banquet, if the wine is not stained, Lu Fengning will go to Yang Rui to say something again, and Yang Rui will have to nag in his ear.
Seeing Han Jianken drink a glass of wine, Lu Fengning naturally felt that his face was bright. Now the East King is not the same as before, the East King is now in charge of half of the court, as well as the military affairs of the entire Wei Dynasty, Lu Fengning also knows that it will not end well to fight against the East King Mansion. He is also a person who understands current affairs, and he doesn't dare to appreciate the previous festivals and grievances at all. Even if he has some mind in his heart, now because Yang Rui told him about Yang Xiuxiu, and reinstated him as an official, it doesn't seem to be worth mentioning.
"Your Highness, I would like to give you another drink!"
As he spoke, Lu Fengning began to toast Han Jian like a drinker.
Yang Xiuxiu on the side only drank three glasses at the beginning, and she deliberately stopped touching the wine, as if to prevent Lu Fengning from doing anything rude by drinking with her. (To be continued......)
