Chapter 915: Can the eldest son be the crown prince?
Han Jian looked at Zuo Gu Shangren, to say that this woman is still quite beautiful, but in the past, Han Jian always felt invisible pressure when facing her, and he didn't have time to take a closer look at her appearance, and suddenly he could face this woman who had embarrassed him countless times in the posture of a superior person, Han Jian still had a cold malice in his heart.
"Senior, don't blame me for being rude, if I don't meet you in this way, I'm afraid I won't be able to talk to you face-to-face." Han Jian sat on the chair prepared for him, and Fa Yi, who was slightly dissatisfied with Han Jian just now, stood next to Han Jian at this time and became Han Jian's loyal guardian.
Han Jian had already learned from Ke Qu'er that her master was not good at words, and often didn't say a word a day, it seemed that the people of Zuo Gu put all their energy on how to practice martial arts and cultivation, but Ke Qu'er didn't know that her master was more keen on the plundering of political power, although Han Jian didn't look at this woman like a person who would touch power. Han Jian even felt that the Venerable Zuo Gu was more indifferent than Fa Ye.
Master Zuo Gu didn't pay attention to Han Jian, but this didn't affect Han Jian talking to himself.
"Venerable Master, in fact, no matter how you look at this war, it seems that the Southern Dynasty is about to fall, and the unification of the North and the South is already the trend of the times. What forces are behind the predecessors, in fact, I also know a little about them, including the relationship between the Venerable Master and Li Shanye. ”
Now that the Southern Dynasty has indeed been basically pacified, Han Jian is waiting for Lin Zhan and Zhang Xing to complete the encroachment on the last territory of the Southern Dynasty, and then he can justifiably become the king of the world. But Han Jian can't take it lightly, because there is still an unstable factor now, in addition to Sima Yin, there is also the old department of Prince Yan Ning, and there is also a person who disappeared from the outbreak of the Civil War, that is, he used to be of great help to Sima Yin. Even the figure who occupies an important position on the rise of Xiao Ling and Xiao Zhan is Li Shanye.
Of course, there is another person Han Jian has to guard against, and that is his cheap father in this world, the old East King Han Jue. Until now, Han Jian still hadn't seen Han Jue himself, but Han Jue had sent Gongsun Shu to the court to contact him. He once expressed his intention to return to the imperial court, but Han Jian did not believe it, because Prince Yan Ning's old ministry had intended to help Yang Qingle restore it, although this force was already very weak, but it was still guarded against by Han Jian.
Born in sorrow and died in peace, Han Jian also knows this truth, only when he can feel the danger around him, can he always be cautious and handle things appropriately.
"What's the relationship?" Master Zuo Gu suddenly glared at Han Jian and said.
Han Jian didn't expect her to ask so directly. Han Jian can't say that they are "old lovers", because Ke Qu'er said that her master's indifferent nature, coupled with the early years of Buddhism, the most forbidden thing is to be contaminated with the world, but in fact, as long as this woman is involved in power, it is impossible to say that she has completely withdrawn from the world.
Han Jian smiled: "It doesn't matter, or it's just a friend." Can the predecessors know Li Shanye's whereabouts now? ”
The Zuo Gu Shangren shook his head directly. "I don't know. ”
This answer was also very simple, so that Han Jian couldn't even question it. If the Satani Master doesn't know. She didn't say anything at all, and Han Jian couldn't torture her, because Fa Ye had used some special methods to coerce confessions on her before, but they didn't work, and Han Jian couldn't think of a better way, after all, he still had to consider Ke Qu'er's feelings. This is Ke Qu'er's most respected master, and Ke Qu'er even treats her as a mother.
Han Jian said: "The seniors still refuse to be honest. But I might as well say bluntly that if I can dominate the rivers and mountains this time, I will enforce strict laws in the Southern Dynasty, but there are people who pretend to be the remnants of the previous dynasty. will be beheaded directly......"
"What does it have to do with me?" Left Valley on the humane.
"It doesn't matter much, but if someone thinks of themselves as a disciple of Huazong, then I'm afraid it has a big stake, right? The Southern Dynasty took the scholar as a model, and there were more than 6,000 disciples of the Xihua sect, if I were a king, I would kill them......"
Before Han Jian finished speaking, the Venerable Zuo Gu looked at Han Jian with sharp eyes and sneered, "It's so vicious. ”
Han Jian smiled and said, "Non-poisonous husband, what the Venerable Master does on weekdays, isn't it vicious?" There should be many Venerable Master who kill people, and watching other people's flesh and blood separate, and even being abandoned by you in the wilderness after they die, isn't it vicious? Could it be that the Venerable Master, seeking political interests and not hesitating to put the people and war at risk, was not evil? ”
Zuo Gu said: "I don't know if I don't know, where is Li Shanye, what's the matter with the overall situation?" ”
Han Jian said with a smile: "The predecessors don't know where Li Shanye is, so where the remnants of the previous dynasty are, they should always know, right?" ”
The Zuo Gu Master still shook his head.
Han Jian was angry in his heart, this woman was also fearless, knowing that he couldn't torture her, at most, let Fa Ye use some special means to "torture" her, and finally keep her appearance intact, so that Han Jian could confess the past in front of Ke Qu'er.
"Lock her up and keep her under strict guard." Han Jian didn't expect that there would be no progress in this inquiry that he came in person.
In fact, it is also a secret why the Venerable Zuo Gu would cancel the plan to exchange Yang Qingle for Yang Qingle and disappear in the first place.
Han Jian and Fa Yi walked out of the side hall of detention together, and when Han Jian went outside, the cold wind of the night was a little cold. Han Jian's rest these days will also make him a little lazy and slack, not everyone can stay vigilant at all times.
"What the hell does Your Majesty want to know?" Fa Yi couldn't help but ask in the end.
Han Jian said: "If it were someone else, I would definitely hide it, especially the women in the family, but master, you actually know the bottom from the beginning, I'm afraid...... The presence of an individual will affect the overall situation. ”
Fa Yi thought for a moment and nodded: "King Dong? ”
"Yes." In this regard, Han Jian has no need to conceal Fa Yi, because the matter of Han Jue's life is also what Fa Ye inquired about when he served Yang Rui, "A person who has endured for more than 20 years, has a family and even cares about his relatives, what is he asking for incognito in the Southern Dynasty?" Could it be that the conspiracy behind him is still small? ”
Fa Yi also fell into a slight contemplation, to say that she didn't know Han Jue at all, but she had heard a lot about this person. This person used to have a certain involvement with Yang Rui, and as for Han Jue's whereabouts after the Battle of Jinling, so that he would stay in the Southern Dynasty for more than 20 years, she was not very clear. Or the fact that Han Jue is alive itself. Someone deliberately let out the rumors, and she didn't think the matter was completely certain.
Han Jian looked up at the southern sky and sighed faintly: "I only hope that Su Tingxia's problem can be solved as soon as possible, and the world will be calmed down as soon as possible, so that there will be no complications." ”
……
……
On the sixth day of the second month, in the city of Jiangdu.
On this day, the family banquet ended early in the Dongwang Mansion. Family banquets are the rules set by Han Jian. Everyone in the family holds a family feast every three to five days, as long as they are not sick in bed, they should theoretically participate, sit down to have a meal together, talk to the parents after the meal, and then go back separately.
Originally, the family banquet was also enjoyable, but because Han Jian was away on the expedition, the women in the family were a little uneasy. Even the family banquet is a little tasteless.
"Sister, have you heard that Your Majesty seems to be a little ...... in Jinling City?"
On the way back, Gu Xin'er specially came to Yang Li'er's side and told her what she knew. What she said was also something that was spread in the Dongwang Mansion, that is, Han Jian got a little carried away after capturing Jinling City, and accepted a lot of women to sing songs every night. Even military and political affairs were abandoned, and Han Jian also accepted the female emperor of the Southern Dynasty as a concubine. This woman wanted to seduce Han Jian and make Han Jian deviate from morality.
Yang Li'er smiled: "It's all nonsense, why does my sister still believe it?" Others are not familiar with the person's character, aren't you familiar with your sister? Xianggong is a fair and upright person, and he is good to us, and he refuses to stay by his side to serve even the show girl. Not to mention those women who are foreign to the Southern Dynasties. ”
Gu Xin'er thought about it and nodded solemnly. Indeed, although Han Jian is a lot of women now, everyone is Han Jian's affection, including herself. Thinking that Han Jian helped her with her parents with all her heart, and even accompanied her in the city, she had a very strong warm feeling in her heart, and it was precisely because of this that her feelings for Han Jian were more like attachment. How could such a man get carried away because of the victory in a war? It's not that Han Jian has never been an emperor, the emperor can accept women all over the world, and there are so many women in the palace, and I haven't seen Han Jian casually say which woman he left by his side for no reason.
Gu Xin'er left with a sense of relief, and when the people left, Yang Li'er's brows suddenly frowned, in fact, she got more news than Gu Xin'er.
"Prepare a sedan chair, I want to go out of the East Palace." Yang Li'er said suddenly.
"Queen Mother, according to the rules, you can't leave the East Palace." The female official next to her hurriedly reminded Yang Li'er that now Yang Li'er is Han Jian's Empress Wu, although the East Wangfu is not the palace of the Wei Dynasty, but it is also Han Jian's palace, and without Han Jian's order, even the queen is not qualified to step out of the palace gate.
Yang Li'er said coldly: "Afraid that something will happen to me? Or is it red apricot out of the wall? Let the guards follow, and go with me to the government office of the East Prince's Mansion, I have something to go to see the nobles. ”
Although Yang Rui was the female emperor of the Wei Dynasty in the past, now Yang Rui is only an abdicated king at most, and Han Jian didn't even give her a title. Yang Rui doesn't care about this, in fact, what Yang Rui wants is for his son to be crowned prince, but unfortunately, Yang Rui gave birth to two children in a row, both of which are daughters.
The female official didn't dare to disobey, in the days when Han Jian left Jiangdu, the big and small affairs of the Jiangdu East Mansion were all decided by Yang Li'er. After all, the former princess of the county, Han Song, was in Luoyang, and Han Cui and Han Zhao were on the march with the army, and Queen Wen Gu Xin'er didn't care about these things, Yang Li'er was not only the mother of Emperor Han Jian's eldest son, but also Empress Wu, and she was still the second lady of the Southern Palace, and her status was too respectful, and no one dared to disobey her.
Yang Li'er didn't like to be angry with some little girls before, but this time she had to do this in order to see Yang Rui.
Yang Li'er walked out of the side gate of the East Palace, got on a sedan chair, and was accompanied and escorted by more than 20 guards and female officials to the office of the East King Mansion in the city, where the backyard was also the temporary palace when Yang Rui was in Jiangdu. Now Yang Rui and the two princesses beside her live in it, and with Han Jian's special instructions, Yang Rui's mother and daughter are well taken care of.
"Queen Niangniang."
Han Jian arranged a lot of female officials around Yang Rui, originally Yang Rui was served by Hui'er, but because of Yang Rui's dissatisfaction with Hui'er, Han Jian took Hui'er elsewhere, so that Yang Rui had one less person who could be trusted, as for other female officials, they were just slaves and maids who obeyed Yang Rui's orders, and Yang Rui would never discuss anything with these people.
"Flat, no summons from the palace, no one is allowed to enter." Yang Li'er left all the people she was bringing outside, and even the lantern she carried in her hand and walked in slowly.
At this time, Yang Rui had just given birth to his daughter for two months, and although he was out of confinement, his body was still a little weak. The main reason is that Yang Rui is sad in his heart, and he feels ashamed of the ancestors of the Yang family, the country was thrown out of her hands, Han Jian promised to make her son the prince, but she gave birth to two daughters. It seems that the heavens are also trying to play tricks on her.
"How is my sister?" When Yang Li'er entered the door, Yang Rui's eyes were a little confused, in fact, Yang Rui sat every day, and there was no one to accompany him, so he would always be cranky. After giving birth to her daughter, not only did Han Jian not come back, but there were also some "scandals" about Han Jian in Jinling City, which made her feel a little irritable.
Yang Rui raised his head slightly: "It's my sister, why do you have time to come?" ”
It's like a sister's greeting, although this kind of greeting makes Yang Li'er feel alive. After all, when she didn't have her current status, Yang Rui was still the empress at that time, and Han Jian often took her into the palace to "**", at that time she admired Yang Rui to an incomprehensible extent, even if she and Yang Rui were happy together, she would be extremely ashamed. Yang Li'er felt that at that time, she was like a little girl in front of Yang Rui, although in terms of age, she was originally a little girl.
Yang Rui is indeed beginning to grow old and decrepit.
Yang Li'er smiled slightly and said: "The prince has a letter back, and he refuses to let anyone send it, so he has to let the concubine send it." ”
Yang Li'er took out a letter from her arms and handed it to Yang Rui, Yang Rui opened it, and it was indeed Han Jian's handwriting. But she wasn't sure that it must have been written by Han Jian himself, because he felt that Han Jian had no reason to write to her through Yang Li'er.
In any case, Yang Rui still had to open the letter first, and the content in it was very simple, Han Jian reported that he was safe, and he also had some instructions for her, and he seemed very concerned. But the last sentence is the most crucial: "Can the eldest son be the crown prince?" ”
Because there was no punctuation, Yang Rui didn't know if Han Jian asked it in a questioning tone or in a peaceful tone.
In any case, Han Jian's letter has the meaning of inquiry.
Even after she gave birth to her youngest daughter, Han Jian still didn't mention the matter of establishing the crown prince, but now he asked Yang Li'er to test her with a letter, which made Yang Rui feel a kind of humiliation of being betrayed. (To be continued.) )
