Chapter 314: One Family, Two Families

The meeting lasted for two hours before it ended, although Han Jian handed over some military and political affairs from the Dongwang Mansion, he also had to hand them over, and these people in the imperial court also had to go back and wait.

Sending people away, Gu Weipan stayed alone to discuss the marriage with Han Jian.

"Mrs. Gu, today, the East Wangfu will send someone to propose to you." Han Jian said to Gu Weipan with a smile.

"Hmm. The old man got it. Gu Weipan sighed, now he also has no fixed residence, his family, including the woman and son of the outer house, are temporarily living in the Dongwang Mansion, and he is also running on both sides of the Dongwang Mansion and the temporary yamen. These days, in order to avoid gossip outside, Gu Weipan lives in the yasho at night, and only occasionally visits his family in Dongwangfu during the day.

"The dowry...... Where should I send it? Han Jian said, "Mrs. Gu, now you are the respect of the Prime Minister. In the future, the affairs of the imperial court will depend on you, and the Dongwang Mansion has temporarily prepared a courtyard, which will be temporarily assigned to the name of the imperial court, and it will be temporarily used as the residence of Gu Taifu? ”

"This ......"

Gu Weipan hesitated. Han Jian gave him a house, which was a great gift. Although he will be married to the Dongwang Mansion and will be regarded as a family member in the future, he is still afraid that those people in the court will say something behind his back.

Han Jian's Gu Weipan hesitated a little and said: "In the future, between the Eastern Palace's Mansion and the imperial court, you will also need to mediate between the Eastern Palace, and you will always live in the government office in the future, after all, it is not convenient." ”

Han Jian's words poked at the weakness in Gu Weipan's heart, Gu Weipan's biggest expectation over the years was not to be promoted, but to give the woman and son of the outer house the official title earlier. When he was in Luoyang City, he took care of his identity and political enemies in the DPRK and China. This has not been done. Now that he has arrived in Jiangdu, he has ranked first among the ministers, and many people think of him as the horse's head, and he inevitably wants to settle down, so that the family can live together and enjoy the family.

"Then I'll leave it to you." Gu Weipan looked at Han Jian and said with a complicated expression.

Han Jian said with a smile: "This time, the Dongwang Mansion is not in one place, and it is mainly for the convenience of the families of the ministers of the court. The princess will be in charge of this matter, I just told you in advance. ”

I heard that it was the princess of the county who was in charge. Gu Weipan's face improved a little. After all, the hands of people are short, although Han Jian and the princess of the county are both from the East Palace, but Han Jian's aunts have the background of the Luoyang family after all, and the ministers of the court and the central government have a heavier rejection of Han Jian, the genuine East King. On the contrary, he had some respect for the princesses of several counties in the East Palace. This matter is left to the princess of the county. Naturally, he felt better.

After saying that, it was said. Han Jian was going to accompany Gu Weipan to see Gu Weipan's wife and children in the wing. These days, after Gu Weipan's woman Xue Niang moved into the East Palace, although she was not opposite to Gu Song's family. But I've seen it a few times. In order to save the relationship with Gu Weipan, Gu Songshi did not have any temper with Xue Niang, but the two had contact. And Gu Xin'er played the role of a bond, and even took Gu Weipan's youngest son Gu Wen to play together, which eased the relationship between the two rooms.

This time, Gu Weipan had to pick up people from both sides to live with him at one time, which was a major event in Gu Weipan's life. Han Jian is now also standing in Gu Xin'er's position, hoping that the Gu family can reunite as soon as possible, so as not to worry about Gu Xin'er's mother's affairs again.

Han Jian and Gu Weipan walked all the way, Gu Weipan was silent for a while, and suddenly asked, "Your Majesty is not in Jiangdu now?" ”

When Han Jian heard this, he was cautious, guessing that Gu Weipan probably noticed some clues when he went to see the empress in the morning.

"Why don't you understand Mrs. Gu's words? In the morning, didn't Mrs. Gu just see His Majesty? Han Jian pretended to be confused and said with a smile.

Gu Weipan sighed and said: "Before His Majesty ascended the throne, the old man met His Majesty, how could the old man not be able to distinguish whether His Majesty was true or false after so many years in the court?" ”

Han Jian smiled and didn't speak. He knew that at this time, even if Gu Weipan had doubts in his heart, it was just a guess, as long as he didn't let go, this matter could not be confirmed.

The two walked together for a while before Han Jian spoke: "Mrs. Gu seems to have forgotten, I didn't go in to see His Majesty himself at that time. Since I returned to Jiangdu, I have only gone in to worship with you today, and as for whether it is His Majesty Xià inside, or His Majesty Xià is talking all because he is sick, I really don't know. ”

Gu Weipan frowned and glanced at Han Jian, Han Jian's push of six two five, as if nothing had anything to do with him, so he had nothing to say.

If the empress was really not in Jiangdu, Han Jian, as the king of the east, would definitely know. And Gu Weipan could probably guess that it might be because Han Jian knew that the empress was not there, so he would return to Jiangdu. Because he had been to the barracks and knew Han Jian's attitude when he returned to the city, even if the empress handed over the administrative power to Han Jian, Han Jian resolutely refused to come back at that time. This time, Han Jian took the initiative to return to the city, which was strange in itself.

Han Jian's Gu Weipan was thoughtful there, and he also knew that Gu Weipan understood that the overall situation was important, even if he had a guess, he didn't tell his colleagues about it.

"Mrs. Gu, now I'm still busy handling the marriage. I'll tell you in detail about this matter after I get married to Xin'er, how about it? Han Jian said.

When Gu Weipan heard this, he also guessed that the empress was most likely not in the city. Otherwise, Han Jian would not be so cautious, and he would tell him to talk about it after he got married.

"You ...... about this matter" Gu Weipan paused and sighed, "Don't think you can hide it from the top and bottom of the court." The old man has seen His Majesty, and don't forget that there is another person who has also visited His Majesty......"

Han Jian understood that Gu Weipan was talking about Lin Ke. It was precisely because of his suspicion that Lin Ke tried to break through, and Lin Ke was injured, but he would not give up. Lin Ke is also an old minister, who has been in the court for many years and is also very familiar with the empress. What's even worse is that Lin Ke himself has a prejudice against Han Jian, and this time Han Jian also arranged for him to be in charge of finding a doctor in the East Pavilion, Lin Ke naturally has complaints in his heart, so this matter may be exposed.

"Mrs. Gu has a heart." Han Jian said with a smile.

Gu Weipan didn't speak again, and the two went to the side room together. happened to meet Han Song's personally bringing someone to propose marriage with a dowry, Gu Xin'er was not present as the heroine of the marriage, but was entertained by her mother Gu Songshi and a maid who was temporarily sent.

"Sir, are you back?" When Gu Songshi saw Gu Weipan, he greeted him with a smiling face, but Gu Weipan had a cold face and looked impatient.

"Master, Dongwangfu came to propose to Xin'er, you are not here, and the concubine does not dare to agree casually. It's good for you to come back, and it's up to you to make up your mind. ”

Gu Song's stepped forward to help Gu Weipan, but Gu Weipan didn't stop Gu Song's move in front of others. The two of them seem to be a loving husband and wife, Han Song doesn't know what to do, only Han Jian knows how fake Gu Weipan is at this time. Gu Weipan hadn't had a good face with Gu Song's for ten years, and if it weren't for Han Jian's obstruction, the relationship between him and Gu Song's husband and wife would have been severed long ago.

"The princess of the county is too polite." Gu Weipan had seen the gift list handed over by Han Song, and even he himself felt that this dowry was very heavy.

Originally, the Gu family had a lot of fields in the capital, some of which were left by Gu Song's father, Song Lao Xiangye, and some were given or bought by the imperial court when Gu Weipan was an official in his early years, and then Gu Weipan left home, but he was also very generous to his wife and children at home, and never mentioned the matter of fields, so Gu Song's family could support a large family even if he did not have a husband by his side. But this time when they moved south, the Gu family had nothing, but the Dongwang Mansion directly sent hundreds of acres of fertile land, and there were domestic servants and slaves, and even mansions and shops, which were as if they were rewarded richly.

"What did Mrs. Gu say?" Han Songshi said with a smile, "This marriage between the two families is a hundred-year-old affair, and in the future, the East King will have to rely on Gu Taifu for help when he works with Gu Taifu in the court." ”

Gu Weipan smiled and nodded, but he also understood a general idea in his heart. Han Song's family was buying him on behalf of Han Jian, which also indirectly confirmed that the empress was not in Jiangdu City.

Han Song's and Han Jian's together, accompanied Gu Weipan and Gu Song's into the hall, although this is the East Wang's Mansion, but because it is to discuss marriage, this place can only be regarded as the Gu Mansion, and Gu Weipan is the head of the family.

"Mrs. Gu, the concubine has found someone to marry the East King and Ling Qianjin, and chose a good day to get married. What does Mrs. Gu think? ”

Han Songshi said that sending the post invited from the "god" was actually just a general step of the wedding. Gu Weipan saw it and knew that the Dongwang Mansion wanted to handle the marriage in a hurry, so he smiled slightly, and without saying much, he handed the post back to Han Song's family and said: "This matter will be handed over to the Dongwang Mansion to deal with, and in the future, the little girl will marry out, and the princess of the county will treat her well." ”

"It's nature." Han Songshi smiled and glanced at Han Jian. Although she is not Han Jian's mother-in-law, what she has done over the years is to raise Han Jian, and seeing Han Jian become an adult, she has long regarded Han Jian as a parent in her heart. Now that Han Jian is married, she seems to be a big thing, and her joy is beyond words.

But Han Jian felt a little strange in his heart, after all, this was not his first marriage, he and Yang Li'er were already a well-known husband and wife, Gu Xin'er entered the door, strictly speaking, it was already a second room. But the Dongwang Mansion and Jiangdu obviously regarded Gu Xin'er as Han Jian's wife, and the wedding was also a ceremony for marrying the concubine of the East Wang.

After talking about the wedding, Han Song got up and was about to leave, and Han Jian got up to leave.

Originally, Han Jian thought that Gu Weipan would stay and contact Gu Song's family for a while, but who knew that Gu Weipan got up directly and said, "The old man wants to go back to the yasho and go out with the East King." ”

This seemed to be said to everyone, but in fact, it was only said to Gu Song's alone.

Gu Song's face showed embarrassment, her husband came back, but he only talked about his daughter's marriage, and he didn't even have the patience to sit for a while. She also knew that now that Gu Weipan hadn't given up on her, she was already very face-saving, and she didn't have anything to force it, she just hoped that Gu Weipan could give her a good face, at least not to make her lose face in front of people.

"Chief Gu is leaving, and the junior will send you out." Han Jian smiled, but he knew that Gu Weipan didn't want to leave like this, because Gu Weipan wanted to see Xue Niang and her son more when he came over this time. (To be continued......)
