Chapter 194: Lang Qing Concubine
When Han Jian went back that night, it was still calm. On the second day, the empress announced in the early court that the king of the east would send an envoy to the Qi dynasty, and the entire court was in an uproar.
Originally, the imperial court sent the crown prince to send an envoy, which was the highest-ranking envoy sent by the Wei Dynasty in the past, and this time the imperial court sent a county king with a real position, and the high standard made the imperial court very incomprehensible. Because the Qi Dynasty never sent envoys above the prince level to the Wei Dynasty.
While the court was blown up, Han Jian was very calm. After he finished breakfast in the mansion, he was about to go to Qingxu Yashe, when Han Jian's two aunts in Luoyang, the third aunt Han Cuishi and the ninth aunt Han Zhaoshi hurriedly returned to the palace to meet Han Jian and ask the reason for the matter.
"Jian'er, you want to be an envoy, how can you not discuss such a big matter with your mother?" After getting Han Jian's understated answer, Han Cuishi seemed a little overdone.
"Sanniang is too careful, it's just an ordinary mission, and it's sent by His Majesty, I don't think there's any reason to refuse." Han Jian said with a smile.
"You know what?" Han Cuishi was a little angry and said, "For my mother, I will go into the palace to meet His Majesty Xià and let His Majesty take back his fate." Ninth sister, you enter the palace with me. ”
Han Zhao glanced at Han Jian helplessly, and his eyes seemed to say that you are too self-assertive. Then the two aunts went into the palace.
After the princesses of the two counties left, Sima Yi and Ruan Ping appeared in front of Han Jian in the main hall, and neither of them knew that Han Jian was going to be an envoy before.
"Young boy, are you going to the Qi Dynasty?" Sima asked, looking at Han Jian.
"Hmm." Han Jian said, "In the next few days, I don't need you to go with me this time." It's too far. ”
Sima Yu sighed helplessly, but didn't say anything. It was Ruan Ping who spoke first: "Reading thousands of books, it is better to travel thousands of miles, and it is good to go to Qi Dynasty." ”
Sima Yi turned his head to look at Ruan Ping and asked, "You want to go with the young master?" ”
Ruan Ping said with a bitter face: "It's so far, I'm afraid...... Can't go. ”
Sima Yu pouted and said: "I can't go and say so much, my son is willing to accompany the young son on a trip, anyway, my desire is to travel all over the world, go to the Qi Dynasty to do chivalrous righteousness and righteousness in the Wei Dynasty, the essence is the same." ”
Han Jian didn't say anything. Instead, he asked, "How was the female assassin doing yesterday?" ”
Sima Yi smiled and said, "I'm afraid I have to ask our Miss Wen'er." Since yesterday, it has been Wen'er who has been in charge of the female assassin. But don't worry, the young man, we have placed a lot of people at the female assassin to keep an eye on, and the torture chamber has no windows on all sides, even if she breaks free. There is no escape. I just put a chain on her in the morning......"
Yesterday it was still a cowhide rope. Change the chain today. Han Jian thought to himself, Ke Qu'er, this is really difficult to fly.
Sima Yi asked, "The young prince is going to deal with the female assassin?" ”
Han Jian thought about it, the empress didn't care about this matter, and completely left it to him to deal with. It means that it is up to him to do what he wants. It was as if the empress had sent him in exchange for an envoy.
"Shut it up, it works. I'm out for a trip and won't be back before noon. Han Jian thought to himself that he had to use Ke Qu'er to communicate with the chaotic party, but now it seemed to be in vain, and the empress had no interest in cooperating with the chaotic party at all. Then simply, just detain the person first, it is difficult to let him release him, Han Jian still wants to get some "conditions", just release people so lightly, and the chaotic party will not kick his nose in the face in the future?
When Sima heard that Han Jian was going out, he knew that Han Jian was going to get together with Gu Xin'er for the last time, after all, Han Jian would leave in a few days, and the reunion was short, and Han Jian wanted to make good use of his last time in Luoyang City. Sima Yi naturally wouldn't be a light bulb and go out with Han Jian.
Han Jian went out of the Dongwang Mansion this time without a guard, dressed in simple clothes, and walked to the Gu Mansion alone. In front of the Gu Mansion, the Gu Mansion was deserted, originally Gu Weipan usually didn't go home, this place was nominally the Gu Mansion, but in fact, no one came to the courtyard.
Han Jian knocked on the door, and then the subordinates of the Gu Mansion opened the door, and when they saw that it was Han Jian, the people of the Gu Mansion were also very polite, and asked Han Jian to go directly inside.
Before Han Jian could enter the courtyard, he saw Gu Weipan coming to the door head-on, and Gu Xin'er and Gu Song's mother and daughter sent Gu Weipan out together.
"You?" When Gu Weipan saw Han Jian, he glanced at Han Jian with a wrinkled face, and turned to Gu Xin'er's mother and daughter behind him, "You go back first." ”
"Yes." Gu Xin'er helped her mother go back to the main hall first, and Gu Weipan seemed to have something to tell Han Jian and stayed here.
"Chief Gu, is there something wrong?" Han Jian was in a bad mood because he was a little unhappy with the empress, this time he came to Gu Xin'er, he was originally able to see one more side before parting, but after leaving Luoyang, he might not be able to come back for half a year or a few years, Han Jian was indeed a little reluctant.
Originally, Han Jian thought that Gu Weipan was going to tell him about his envoy, but Gu Weipan came up and said that he was the king of Yanning County. Previously, the imperial court and the Northern King crossed the Yellow River, although the battle was not too fierce, but it was also the largest civil strife in the Wei Dynasty in recent years. Before this civil strife, the king of Yanning County and Tang Sheng, the former secretary of the household department, were responsible for escorting the money and grain to the north, during which things were very coincidental, so that everyone in the court felt that there was some unclear relationship between the king of Yanning and Tang Sheng and the king of the north, and in the end, it was confirmed that the money and grain that the king of Yanning was responsible for escorting was robbed by the army of the north king.
“…… Now that the King of Yanning County and Tang Sheng will return to Luoyang, do you know what His Majesty will do next to deal with the two of them? Gu Weipan finally looked at Han Jian and asked.
"Chief Gu asked the wrong person." Han Jian smiled helplessly, "Your Majesty asked me not to ask about the affairs of the court, and naturally I won't show some tone to it." ”
Gu Weipan let out a long sigh, and seemed to have expected Han Jian's answer a long time ago. Gu Weipan said: "Last time, you asked the old man to investigate Tang Sheng's details, although there is no evidence, but you also know that he is indeed involved in the corruption case, and it is likely to be involved with the king of the north." Now that he has returned to Luoyang with the king of Yanning County, if His Majesty can't deal with all of them, I'm afraid it will still be a disaster in the future. ”
Hearing this, Han Jian suddenly felt very tired. Regarding what kind of goods Yanning Junwang and Tang Sheng are, now he no longer has the heart to care. Han Jian thought to himself, what's the use of managing it now? Anyway, he will go to the Qi Dynasty, think about how happy he is along the way, how he can complete the mission and come back, as for the power struggle in Luoyang City, the deceit between the courts, just put it aside, and spend the last time in Luoyang City quietly.
Gu Weipan also felt that Han Jian was not very concerned about this matter, and at this time he would also leave to go to the listening office, and finally asked, "I heard that His Majesty sent you to the Qi Kingdom as an envoy?" ”
"Hmm." Han Jian responded.
"It's a long trip, take care along the way." It was rare for Gu Weipan to say something so "concerned", which made Han Jian a little uncomfortable. Is this still the Chief Gu who doesn't look down on him?
After saying this, Gu Weipan left the Gu Mansion, and Han Jian was also able to go in to see Gu Xin'er.
Gu Xin'er first told Gu Songshi that she wanted to go out with Han Jian, and Gu Songshi had no objection to her daughter's relationship with Han Jian. Han Jian and Gu Xin'er went out together, and Han Jian told Gu Xin'er about going to Nanqi.
Originally, the two of them were walking leisurely on the streets of Luoyang City, but when they heard this, Gu Xin'er stopped, looked at Han Jian with a somewhat sad face, and her reluctance was overflowing.
“…… Xin'er, this time I went to Qi Dynasty, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back sometimes. Han Jian's tone of voice had a feeling that he wanted to explain the future, so he almost said, "If I can't come back, you can find a good person to marry."
"Can Xin'er go along?" Gu Xin'er asked suddenly.
Gu Xin'er knew that this trip was a long way, but she was willing to walk with him, and Han Jian was very moved by this affection. Han Jian took Gu Xin'er's hand and comforted him softly, even if Gu Xin'er was willing to go, Han Jian would not let Gu Xin'er travel so far to accompany him.
"Xin'er rest assured, if things go well, it will be as short as March and May, and you can come back in half a year." Han Jian finally laughed.
Gu Xin'er glanced at Han Jian, obviously knowing that Han Jian was coaxing her. This trip to Nanqi, just to go back and forth and spend time on the road will take three or four months, how can things be so smooth?
Gu Xin'er didn't expose Han Jian's white lies, the two walked together in the city, and young men and women like them came out together, even in Luoyang City, where the people were open, it was extremely rare. After all, Gu Xin'er didn't have her hair in a bun, so she was not a woman, and it wouldn't be strange if an ordinary couple came out.
"Xin'er, originally I wanted to ask His Majesty to play and marry you before leaving." Han Jian said suddenly, Gu Xin'er's face turned red, and she arranged how to respond.
Fortunately, Han Jian didn't want her to respond, and continued: "But after thinking about it again, I was too hasty to show my sincerity. It's better to wait for me to come back from the Qi Dynasty, and then officially go to the mansion to propose marriage, I believe that Ling Zun will not object to our marriage at that time. ”
"Hmm." Gu Xin'er finally lowered her head and answered, her cheeks were red to the root of her ears, and finally she said in a voice like a mosquito, "Xin'er will wait for you to come back......"
Like the most beautiful love words in the world, a sentence of "waiting for you to come back" is like a lifelong promise, no matter what the future is, Han Jian doesn't care too much, he only cares about what he has now. It is rare that he can be favored by Gu Xin'er, who is like a lady of the sky, and he himself feels very honored.
"I'll come back as much as I can...... Marry you. Han Jian also expressed his attitude in the end.
Seeing noon, Han Jian and Gu Xin'er went to Qingxu Yashe to eat together. Han Jian originally thought that Sima Jian would go with Ruan Ping to visit Ruan Ping's fellow disciples, but he didn't expect that Sima Qi, Ruan Ping and the very annoying Huang Lie were all inside at this time. After all, Gu Xin'er is a daughter's family, and the daughter's family in this era is very shy, even if she is officially married, she will not come out to meet guests, not to mention that there is nothing between Gu Xin'er and him.
"Why are you all here?" Han Jian looked at the few people at the table, and then asked Sima Yi who greeted him.
Han Jian thought, since you are all here, then I will simply change the family. (To be continued......)
