Chapter 398: Cat and Mouse

"Wait." Just as the two men rolled up their sleeves and were about to step forward, Han Jian suddenly took two steps back, raised his hand and said.

As soon as Han Jian put on a posture, he looked like a martial arts master, but Han Jian was also playing tricks, but he was just foolish. Originally, he was a sword-wielder, but today, in order to accompany the empress out to play, he even handed over his sword to the guards, so he didn't have any blades on him. The showmanship he made was just a casual scare to scare people, and he didn't plan to do it himself.

However, Han Jian's posture did bluff Song Niang a little.

Song Niang looked at it and said in her heart, could it be that she is really a practitioner? If this is true, people smashed Jiangnan Tower, then they can only consider themselves unlucky, who told her not to follow the rules first?

"What?" Song Niang first signaled for the two men to return first, and then asked herself.

At this point, the sound of the backyard has disappeared. Han Jian, on the other hand, couldn't help but glance at the roof, he already felt that at least ten guards had arrived at the eaves, that is to say, now the guards of the East Wangfu had completely controlled Jiangnan Tower. This is already low-level territory.

But Song Niang didn't know about this matter, she was still thinking, why did only two people come up?

"Song Niang, I just want to ask, how can I be harmonious and not hurt my feelings?" Han Jian asked with a smile.

Song Niang sneered, and said in her heart that you kid is still timid.

"Hmph. Doesn't hurt the peace? Simple, the two of you kneel down for the old lady, kowtow three times, and then leave the silver on your body, today's matter can be regarded as revealed! ”

Han Jian took a breath, this was really a "very rude request".

"What if we don't?" Han Jian continued to ask with a smile.

Song Niang sneered again. First, she pushed a big man, meaning to let him continue to call people, while she and another big man dealt with it first. The big man understood Song Niang's eyes and hurriedly went.

"Not from? The old lady tied you up, first served the old lady in the Jiangnan Building for a month's guests, and then sent it to the government, and you couldn't find your own mother! ”

Han Jian was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that this was really vicious.

Looking at the empress again, the empress sat down very calmly and continued to drink tea there.

"Song Niang. Serving guests is such a thing. Are you afraid that you won't be able to do it? Next...... But it's a man. Han Jian said helplessly.

"Castrate you, the old lady dares to make sure that you are a little more beautiful than a pretty sister. Otherwise, if you meet the kid and leave it to the old lady, the old lady will ensure that your life is no worse than before. How. A white-faced little scholar? Song Niang suddenly said with a wicked smile.

Han Jian smiled and said to the empress, "Madam." It seems that a husband still has the potential to be a little white face. ”

"More gibberish. Watch out for your head! The Empress seemed to be threatening, but there was no anger on her face.

This kind of words were heard by Song Niang, but the anger in her heart did not come to one place.

"You dead aunt. Say what? Song Niang roared at the empress, "It seems that you want the old lady's head, just come and get it!" What about people, not coming up yet? ”

As soon as Song Niang finished roaring, there was a sound of hurried footsteps on the stairs, rumbling like a small earthquake. It was precisely because Song Niang roared heart-rending that the guards outside thought that there was something going on inside, and before Han Jian could send a signal, everyone had already rushed in.

Song Niang originally glanced at Han Jian and the empress with a "you are dead" eyes, but when she turned her head, she realized that it was not the thugs raised in the Jiangnan Building, but a group of men with blades from nowhere, and she panicked and wanted to escape, but her way had been blocked by Han Jian.

"It's too late to save the driver, and I ask Your Majesty and the young son to atone for their sins!"

The guard who took the lead was named Lu Zhong, and he was also one of the several captains of the guards in the Eastern Palace.

As soon as he came closely, he asked the big man who was standing next to Song Niang to hold him down, and then saluted to "ask for sin", but it made Han Jian feel that he didn't know each other.

Originally, cat and mouse, he still wanted to play Song Niang for a while, but he didn't expect Lu Zhong to bring someone up so quickly, which made him feel a little disappointed. As soon as he came up, he called "Majesty", which was tantamount to reporting to his family, and he had always been called "Madame" to the empress before, if this kind of words were spread, it would be a big trouble. Originally, Song Niang didn't have to die, but now she has to die.

"Huh?" As soon as Song Niang heard this, she fell to the ground and was already incontinent.

Han Jian didn't listen to Lu Zhong's nonsense, he waved his hand directly, signaling for Lu Zhong to go down first, and Lu Zhong escorted the big man out, and at the same time, the rest of the guards outside had already opened the main entrance of Jiangnan Building, and more guards came in to find out the people in each room, regardless of men and women.

It was very noisy outside, but the private room was quite elegant and quiet, the empress was still drinking tea leisurely, and Han Jian was standing in front of Song Niang, who was already paralyzed.

"Song Niang, what you said just now...... What should I do? Han Jian asked with a smile.

“……”

"Forget it, let's ask this, does Song Niang think that you should be dealt with next?"

Song Niang was frightened and silent, her mouth opened a little, but she closed it again, and the whole person was already frightened.

Han Jian sighed, the mouse surrendered so quickly, and he was boring as a cat. Turning around and walking in front of the empress, he saluted solemnly and said, "Madame, if you have any other orders, please give me." ”

The empress didn't expect Han Jian to address her as "madam" when Song Niang already knew their identities.

"What did you say?"

Han Jian smiled and did not answer.

Song Niang finally understood why a little white-faced person actually followed behind a woman as an "errand", it turned out that one was the empress, and the other was the king of the east.

In addition to knowing that she couldn't survive, she didn't have time to think about it, and as for Han Jian's title to the empress, she didn't have the heart to dwell on it anymore, after all, it was none of her business.

But now the empress cares a lot about when outsiders are present, Han Jian is "talking nonsense" there.

"King Dong, let them call me all the Qingqi in the Jiangnan Tower!" The Empress snapped.

Han Jian was a little embarrassed, and said: "Madame's request is really a bit difficult, if you don't know, how can you know which one is Qingqi and which one is...... Alas, do you want to try them one by one? ”

The empress glared at Han Jian again.

Han Jian pretended not to see it, turned to Song Niang, and shouted, "Why don't you go quickly?" ”

"Huh?"

Song Niang was a little confused, there was still a place to use her at this time, that is...... Don't have to die?

Song Niang got up from the ground with a lot of urine, staggered out of the door, and when she got outside, people were already rolling downstairs, waiting for people to get up, but they had been taken down by the guards. The guards thought she was trying to slip away.

Han Jian went to the door and gave Lu Zhong two orders. Lu Zhongcai found someone to help Song Niang, who had fallen and was covered in bruises, to find Qingqi in Jiangnan Tower.

After the tea work, the guards escorted several delicate women up, and Song Niang was carried by someone with a door panel, and her legs were broken.

The women are not very old, twelve or thirteen to fifteen or sixteen years old, and they look very delicate without rouge, and they do not have the demeanor of an oiran at all, except for crying and wiping their tears, one by one they kneel timidly, and some of them have been crying silently.

Han Jian took a look, the clothes on these girls were very thin and shabby, and they were obviously treated inhumanely here.

"Young boy, people have been brought." Lu Zhongdao.

"Guard Lu, you go down first, and leave it to me here." Han Jian said.

"Yes." Lu Zhong didn't understand why Han Jian and the empress came to such a place, and he couldn't ask more questions at the moment, so he had to take people down first, and even Song Niang, who was sitting on the door, was carried out.

"Majesty, everyone is here, please take a look." In front of so many people, Han Jian will no longer "talk nonsense", because he is not ready to pull everyone out and kill them, so as not to spread the word.

"Hmm." Only then did the empress stand up, go to the dozen or so women kneeling in a row, and said sharply, "Raise your head!" ”

These girls all raised their heads with sobbing, and the pear blossoms brought rain to make people pitiful, but because some of them were too young, when they cried, they couldn't distinguish between beauty and ugliness. There are two sixteen or seventeen-year-olds, who seem to know some etiquette, even if they are crying in fright, they just find a very thick handkerchief to wipe their tears, with a bit of delicateness.

Han Jian looked at the empress seriously and looked at the women's faces one by one, and felt strange in his heart, and said in his heart, Could it be that the empress really has a "special habit"?

Han Jian stepped forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, you won't be here to save the girl who has lost your footing, right?" ”

"Shut up!" The empress let out a low snort, and Han Jian smiled stupidly, standing aside and not talking again.

After reading it, the empress said: "Take it back for a while, and don't ask me what I want to do, in short, I have my own use." ”

With that, the empress had already stepped out of the door of the private room.

Han Jianxin said that this is really troublesome, the empress came to Jiangnan Tower, and it turned the world upside down, and it will be difficult for Jiangnan Tower to continue to operate in the future. The story of "talented and beautiful women" in Jiangnan is not to be cut off because of this?

Now the empress is in a hurry to leave, making him really think that the empress is a young man who has come and gone without a trace.

"Bring back to His Majesty's dormitory, these women." Han Jian pointed to Lu Zhong who was standing at the door, and at this time the empress had already gone downstairs.

"That young man, those ...... outside," Lu Zhong bowed and asked.

"Those, let's take them back to the yamen for the time being, settle them, and then go back and wait for Jiangnan Building to reopen, and then how to deal with it." Han Jian said casually.

"That young man, and some proprietors of Jiangnan Tower......"

"Take them into custody together, check them well, that Song Niang, detain them alone, knock her chin down first, and don't allow her to talk casually!"

Han Jian thought to himself, at this time, it was a bit troublesome to kill people first, so it was better to wait until he came back. At this time, the most important thing for him is to catch up with the empress, after all, the empress is his main purpose today.

As for the things in Jiangnan Tower, he can only regard it as a "small episode", what kind of "Qingqi" does the empress want to come to Jiangnan Tower, and what specific purpose is there, he can only go back and ask. This kind of thing can't be rushed.

"Madam, you can let your husband chase after you."

Han Jian went out, only to find that the empress had walked out of a short distance. When he caught up, with a little helplessness, he said.

All that came was the white eyes of the Empress. (To be continued......)
