Han Jian came out of the palace, and he hadn't changed yet, but the streets of Luoyang were already deserted, it was a once lively night market, and in the middle of winter, with martial law in the whole city, it was also a bleak place, except for the official officials and soldiers who set up cards along the way, there were no pedestrians on the street.

It was still early, and Han Jian didn't plan to go back to the Dongwangfu Courtyard immediately, but planned to go to the place where Miss Ning stayed first.

This time, he was going to "hide Jiao in the golden house" and take Miss Ning out of the family, so he didn't plan to send it back. And Miss Ning has changed from the original daughter of the family to a foreign house raised by the powerful in one day, after all, her mood has risen and fallen too much, and Han Jian doesn't want her to have any shadows in her heart.

Han Jian didn't need guards to lead the way, and he could recognize the way in the past. Along the way, he rode a horse, and he didn't walk slowly, but he was also thinking about some things along the way, from Jiangdu to Luoyang, from family affairs to state affairs.

When I arrived at the place, it was a small courtyard, which was not a deep mansion compound, and the property of the East Wangfu in the capital had been stolen by others, and many places had not been properly repaired. Although it was dark and the light was weak, Han Jian could still feel the depression of this courtyard.

"Young boy!"

The captain of the guard who was in charge of picking up Miss Ning's family saw Han Jian's horse stop, and immediately stepped forward to salute, he was still arranging for people to keep vigil, since Han Jian sent people here, it was necessary to strengthen vigilance here.

"Someone in there?" Han Jian asked, pointing to the door.

"Yes." The captain of the guard replied.

"What happened when you picked them up?" Han Jian asked again.

"Nothing happened, and no one in the Ning family sent Miss Ning out of the house. But she also brought some softness, I don't know if I need to prepare more? ”

Han Jian said: "You don't have to worry about these things, just keep watch outside, I'll go in and take a look." ”

The captain of the guard led the way, and Han Jian entered the courtyard, although there were two lights in the courtyard, but the rickety light was very dim. Han Jian glanced at it, the courtyard was also quite large, but there were only two entrances inside and outside, and the hut in the inner courtyard was lit up. A vaguely visible figure seemed to be packing up things.

The outer courtyard of the small courtyard. The guards were allowed to enter, but the guards in the inner courtyard knew very well that it was a forbidden area, and only Miss Ning was alone.

Han Jian glanced at the coldness around him and gave a few orders to the guards. Originally, Han Jian wanted the guards to send two maids from the East Palace. Think again. The matter still has nothing to do with the Dongwang Mansion, so I asked the guards to find two maids from outside, or simply bought them.

Enter the inner courtyard. Han Jian remembered that Mrs. Luo had been running this business, and although Mrs. Luo had provided him with information recently, he had never had time to meet him privately after he arrived in Luoyang. On second thought, I should have met with him when I went back, and at least I should know what Mrs. Love's attitude was now.

When he arrived in the inner courtyard, Han Jian directly pushed down the door, and the door was directly pushed open.

The jade man who was packing up her things inside was obviously a little panicked, and looked at the door with panic in her eyes, but after seeing that it was Han Jian, she calmed down a little, put down what she was doing and walked over, and saluted Han Jian respectfully.

"Slave and maid to the master's greetings." Miss Ning no longer calls herself a "little woman", and her title to Han Jian has also changed from "His Royal Highness the East King" to "master".

This can be regarded as a change in her identity, from a young lady to a slave, it is only a matter of an hour or two.

"There's no need to be too restrained, this king just came to have a look." Han Jian said, entered the room, looked around, turned around, but found that the jade man with a thin body was trembling, and he realized that the door was not closed when he entered. When night comes, the cold winter wind hangs on people.

"Just close the door." Han Jian said.

"Yes." The jade man came to the door, closed the door, and walked over with his head down, but he didn't dare to look up at Han Jian.

Han Jian found a chair and sat down, pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Sit." ”

"Slaves don't dare." The jade man said with a worried face.

"You don't need to call yourself a slave and maid, you entered this courtyard, not for slaves and maids, nor as cattle and horses, this king appreciates you, so he will take you in, and he will let you enter the East Wangfu in the future, but that will wait until after returning to Jiangdu. Did your father tell you that the Ning family would move to Jiangdu? ”

The jade man nodded and said, "Slave...... When the family left home, my father gave an explanation and mentioned the matter. My father also said that His Majesty would also go to Jiangdu together. ”

"Hmm." Han Jian nodded, wanting to pour a cup of tea, but found that there was not even hot tea, and couldn't help but sigh, "This place is a little simpler, not as good as your Ningfu mansion, but tomorrow there will be a maid to take care of your daily life." Come here, let the king take a good look at you. ”

"Yes!"

With a little uneasiness on her face, the jade man clasped his fingers on his chest, and slowly walked in front of Han Jian, because she was not very short, standing there, a head taller than Han Jian who was sitting, as soon as Han Jian looked up, he saw the snow neck of the jade man.

Han Jian looked at it with a smile, until the woman was at a loss, Han Jian stretched out his hand and scratched it between the jade man's neck with his fingers, the skin was rich and the blow could be broken, and it was not slippery, but the woman seemed to have never been so light, and her body instinctively retreated, and after taking a step back, she also remembered that she couldn't retreat, and she didn't dare to move forward.

"Don't worry, this king won't eat you again." Han Jian said, "I've seen you a few times today, and I still don't know your name." ”

"The name of the slave family...... Embroidery. The jade man was made red by Han Jian, and seemed to think that he had to dedicate himself today, so when he replied to his voice, he was also shy, and his head was lowered.

"Embroidery? That's Ning Xiuyan, a good name, it's rare that your father didn't give you a name hastily, it should be when you raise it for a man's family, right? Han Jian said.

"There is an elder brother in the slave family, and my father just let the slave family read and write since he was a child, and asked his husband to teach him piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so he ...... The father also has the meaning of raising the slave family as a man, but it is just ...... Slaves are not for men. ”

"Sometimes, women don't lose to men. Do you know what attracts this king today? Han Jian asked suddenly.

"The slave family doesn't know." Ning Xiuyan bowed his head and said.

Han Jian said: "It's your temperament, after this king didn't agree to Lin Shangshu's invitation, you begged for words, and then this king confirmed that you were a woman." Speaking of which, you have a good hand at men's clothing, and this is ......"

Han Jian said, pointing to Ning Xiuyan's chest.

Ning Xiuyan's cheeks flushed and said, "Before the slave family goes out...... Bundled over. ”

"Oh." Han Jian nodded knowingly, no wonder such a young beauty couldn't be sure of men and women when she saw it at first sight, it turned out that she had experience in pretending to be a man, otherwise, with Han Jian's experience with women, there would never be such a low-level deviation, "Untie it, it's not good for you to be tightened." Not now, after the king is gone. ”

"Yes." Ning Xiuyan was a little unclear about the intentions of the East King.

After Han Jian came, not only did he come to see her, but he also made a "light" move on her, making her think that Han Jian was not going to leave tonight. But Han Jian's implication was to leave, and he had no intention of staying for a long time.

"Embroidery. The first time I called it, I was a little unaccustomed to it. Ha ha. Han Jian smiled heartily and said, "You will live here for the next few days, I will let someone take care of your daily life, and in a few days I will leave to return to Jiangdu, the road may be harder, what is there to prepare, you turn around and say to the maid, let the maid go and prepare." ”

"The slave family has nothing to prepare."

Ning Xiuyan said, looking at her own small baggage on the bed, there were only a few changes of clothes in it, which was very simple, and it didn't seem to match her identity as a young lady.

"Hmm." Han Jian nodded, he knew that there were some things that he couldn't ask for. If Ning Xiuyan is unwilling to come over as if he is a prisoner, he can only be regarded as forcing Ning Xiuyan to follow him, which will always become an obstacle between the two.

"Go back and let the maid accompany you out for a walk, but the security in Luoyang is a little unpeaceful now. It may be better to go to Jiangdu, but now the prosperity of Jiangdu is above Luoyang, and after the past, you always have to adapt to it. ”

Han Jian said, got up and said, "This king won't disturb your rest anymore." The king has time to come back and have a look. ”

Han Jian walked towards the door, and Ning Xiuyan suddenly called: "Master." ”

Han Jian turned his head, looked at Ning Xiuyan and said, "What do you call this king?" ”

"Your Highness does not allow the slave family to call the master, so he calls the master. His Royal Highness has always been the master of the slave family......" Ning Xiuyan said with her head down.

Han Jian smiled, he didn't care too much about this thing, many people around him called him "young son", and Ning Xiuyan, even if he was the woman he received, he had no name, it was not appropriate to call him a husband or a husband, but only the title of master was more appropriate.

"Call it whatever you want." Han Jian said.

"Yes." Ning Xiuyan said, "The master doesn't stay and sleep? Slave ...... Willing to serve the master, dare not slack off. ”

Han Jian stepped forward with a smile and approached Ning Xiuyan. Ning Xiuyan was extremely flustered in the face of Han Jian's bullying in front of her, and even her breath was not smooth, Han Jian looked at the shy appearance of the jade in front of him, but he just touched her cheek with his hand, and said: "Marrying someone like this is like porcelain, and I am afraid of breaking it if I touch it." This king has been busy with work these days, so you should settle down first, and when you want to go back to see your parents, just go back. When the king is busy for these few days, he will come over. ”

Ning Xiuyan replied softly. She understood what Han Jian meant when he said "I will come over", and when she came, it was the time to spend the Spring Festival with her. And now she is like a bride to be married, and she will have to wait for a time before she can truly become the woman of the East King.

"One more thing." Han Jian was about to leave, but suddenly remembered, and said, "Turn around and tell your father, don't think that others don't know about the little actions he did in private." If you want Ning's family to be happy in the future, you should be a man. If he makes any more moves, don't think that if you stay with this king, this king will not know. ”

Ning Xiuyan's face was a little surprised, obviously she also knew that her father was not completely loyal to the current imperial court. (To be continued......)
