Chapter 322: Get to the bottom of it
Han Jian saw the slightly aggrieved look on Yang Li'er's face, and he couldn't bear it, Yang Li'er has been the princess of Nanwangfu since she was a child, and she has strong ability and is relied on by Nanwang, and she is also high in Nanwangfu. How could you have suffered such humiliation today?
Han Jian said: "Li'er, I'm fine, you go back to the room first." ”
"Yes." Yang Li'er lowered her head and answered, and said goodbye to many princesses, and then walked out of the main hall slowly. When she left, Han Xu was still chattering, thinking that it was unruly for Yang Li'er to turn around and leave instead of retreating. Although the voice was not loud, Han Jian guessed that Yang Li'er could also hear it clearly.
Han Jian didn't say anything, after all, Han Xu's family is also his aunt, today is the day he and Gu Xin'er got married, saying too much will only make the people present more embarrassed, and it will also be Li Gui Gu Xin'er thinks that he will protect Yang Xin'er and contradict Han Xu'er.
Han Songshi on the side said: "Sixth sister, everyone is gone, what else do you say?" ”
"That is to say, she is too temperamental, this is the East Palace, no matter how good her background is, when she enters the house, she is not a concubine of the East Palace?"
When she Han Xu said this, it was tantamount to pulling Gu Xin'er in. Han Songshi saw that Han Jian's face was not very good, so he hurriedly pulled Han Xu's sleeve again, and Han Xushi sighed and said nothing.
The rest is to treat Han Jian's injuries. Han Jian's leg injury is fine after treatment, but the wound needs a long time to heal.
Han Cuishi looked at Han Jian and asked, "Jian'er, is today's wedding still going on as usual?" ”
"Let's be simple." Han Jian said, "Now the assassins are committing murders in Jiangdu. It also hurt so many innocent people, and it would be inappropriate to do it in a big way. The etiquette is as usual, just simple, and I don't want Xin'er to wait any longer. ”
As he spoke, Han Jian took Gu Xin'er's hand. Gu Xin'er was embarrassed by Han Jian's intimate behavior, lowered her head, and the princesses of the next few counties were all smiling. In their eyes, the harmony between Han Jian and Gu Xin'er is the most important, and what they hope most is that the Dongwang Mansion will open as soon as possible.
"Okay, Erniang continued to prepare. As for the guests. I'll also take care of it first. If you are injured, you don't need to be tired, just show up when you salute. Han Song said.
"Hmm." Han Jian nodded.
Subsequently, many of Han Jian's aunts went out. Don't pull Gu Xin'er away. They also knew that at this time, Han Jian and Gu Xin'er had something to say between them. The two of them were given time.
When everyone left, Gu Xin'er was not so restrained, and Han Jian also let go. Stopped Gu Xin'er's waist and asked her to sit beside her. Gu Xin'er endured tears for a long time before they flowed, and after crying for a long time, Han Jian coaxed her over, but at this time, Gu Xin'er's eyes were still red.
After half an hour, the outside layout was almost the same, and Han Jian and Gu Xin'er were going out to officially visit the church and get married.
Han Jian personally covered the head of the dividend benefactor, and then took Gu Xin'er's hand and went out together. After all, Han Jian's legs and feet were inconvenient, and Gu Xin'er had to support Han Jian appropriately, and when the two of them appeared in the main courtyard of the Dongwang Mansion, the officials waiting in the main courtyard all got up. Some of these people came early and some of them came late, and they all knew what was going on in the city. At this time, Han Jian was able to show up, which seemed very strange to them.
The wedding was held as usual, first the ceremony of worship, because Gu Xin'er married into the East Palace, Gu Weipan even if he had a high official position, but his title was not as high as Han Jian, and he was the woman's father, so it stands to reason that he would not appear in the East Palace today. The so-called woman marrying out of the door is equivalent to spilling out of the water, the woman on the day of marriage, just send her daughter out of the door to complete the mission, as for entertaining relatives and friends, it is only her own business.
Han Jian and the dividend benefactor paid a visit, and then sent the newlyweds into the room to wait. It could have been the same as in Yuzhou, and let people send Gu Xin'er in, and Han Jian didn't have to do it himself, but Han Jian and Gu Xin'er had a deep relationship after all, and at this time he insisted on sending Gu Xin'er in person.
Waiting to send Gu Xin'er back to the room, Han Jian asked Gu Xin'er to wait inside, while he went out. Originally, as the groom, he was going to entertain guests, but today, because of his simplicity, there will be someone to entertain the guests, and Han Jian mainly wants to know the details of the assassination.
When Han Jian returned to the main hall, Han Song and Han Cui were in a meeting with some generals and officials in charge of security and security in Jiangdu, and when they saw Han Jian come in, everyone got up and saluted.
"Etiquette is waived." Han Jian walked forward, without being helped, and raised his hand to stop the salute of the official next to him.
Han Jian's words were very blunt, mainly because Han Jian had always felt that Jiang was his own land, and even if he went out by himself and was known to be the king of the east, no one would be unfavorable to him. But today's events made him know that danger would happen to him, and it was in the place where he had lived for sixteen years.
The unkind attitude of the king of the east made the people present feel that even if the princess of the county would not pursue it, the king of the east would not let go of those who endangered his safety, including some officials who were related to this matter and neglected their duties.
"Jian'er, why don't you rest in the room?" Han Song's family was not so formalized in front of the officials of the Jiangdu, and helped Han Jian who stepped forward and let him sit in the right position.
"You may be seated, gentlemen." Han Jian looked at everyone present and said in a cold tone.
The people present could hear Han Jian's words with a bit of anger, and none of them dared to sit down.
Han Song on the side said: "The East King asked you to sit, just sit down." ”
The people present looked at each other at this time, and sat down in twos and threes, looking very nervous, deliberately avoiding Han Jian's gaze.
"What the hell is going on with today's assassins?" Han Jian didn't talk nonsense, and asked straight to the point.
Han Jian's question was too direct, and none of the people present could answer. In fact, Han Jian also knew that no one would answer, because no one would admit that the assassin's matter was related to his negligence and slackness, and this was a disaster that would lead to imprisonment if he did not take care of his official position, and no one would take the blame on himself. The reason why he is so powerful is because he also wants to stand up in front of all the Jiangdu officials, knowing that he is not easy to fool.
After all, Han Jiangang was in charge of the East Prince's Mansion, and the officials below thought that the princess of the county was the lord of Jiangdu, and for him, the king of the East, they all thought that it was not yet a climate. If the new official does not have three fires when he takes office, the fire behind him will not be able to burn.
There was silence in the main hall, and the people present even deliberately endured their breathing, lest they become the abrupt person and be questioned by Han Jian. This kind of thing, if you want to say that it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, if you want to say that it has a relationship from city defense to public security yamen, no one can escape.
There was a stalemate at the scene, and Han Songshi on the side said: "Jian'er, I was also investigating the origin of these assassins just now, and it is not clear where these gangsters entered our Jiangdu City through which they entered. ”
Han Jian said: "Erniang, some things can be delayed, because I don't want to spoil the festive atmosphere of getting married." But if today's events are not investigated, how can public order in Jiangdu be good in the future? Even I, the king of the east, have to be frightened when I go out, let alone other people who dare to go out with confidence? ”
Han Songshi felt that Han Jian had the intention of rectifying, and when he saw what Han Cuishi was going to say, he pulled Han Cui's clothes and said, "What Jian'er said makes sense. The matter of the assassin must be investigated, and if there is any omission, it must be repaired. And these officials, no matter how high their official positions are, no matter how loyal they are to the Dongwang Mansion, they have to take off their black yarn hats. ”
An official in his fifties next to him suddenly looked at Han Jian, as if he had something to say.
Han Jian remembered that this person's name was Ning Zhongping, and he was an official in charge of public security in Jiangdu's Taishou Mansion, and he was also a well-known figure in Jiangdu.
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Han Jian looked at Ning Zhongping and said.
"Go back to His Royal Highness the King of the East." Ning Zhongping stood up and saluted, "Now that the Luoyang thieves are rampant, His Majesty will not be able to get my Jiangdu, today's assassins, most of them are the Luoyang thieves and rebels, there is no martial law in Jiangdu at the moment, if these people have the intention to sneak into the city, it is also impossible to prevent it." ”
Ning Zhongping came out to pick his head, as if he was a bird, and the official next to him heard someone talking, so he naturally echoed.
Han Jian said with a smile: "Then listen to what Ning Duling means, do you mean that if the assassin comes again next time, he will still go unimpeded, and we can't do anything about him?" ”
"That's not what Xia Guan meant." Ning Zhongping said hurriedly.
Han Jian snorted coldly and said, "Although Jiangdu has not been under martial law recently, over the years, has the city gate yamen strictly censored passers-by?" In the past two years, this king went out, and no one paid attention to it when he went in and out of the city, and to this day, I'm afraid it hasn't changed much, right? ”
Ning Zhongping's face was a little nervous, and he said, "Your Highness is clear, and now the affairs of the city gate are ...... It is not under the jurisdiction of the Taishou government, so it ...... Xia Guan didn't know. ”
Han Jian thought that Ning Zhongping would defend himself, but he didn't expect him to push it clean and push the matter to the city gate yamen.
This is also the practice of officialdom, since the responsibility cannot be avoided, then push the biggest responsibility to others, let yourself be less responsible, then everything can be fine. Anyway, either he dies or I die, these people will think about protecting themselves first.
"Then the Taishou Mansion is not responsible?" Han Jian said, "When thieves enter the city, do they need a place to stay?" When they settled, did someone check their household registration and directions? ”
Ning Zhongping said: "There are too few people in the Taishou Mansion, I'm afraid it's ...... Out of reach. ”
"Can't do it?" Han Jian said coldly, "I'm afraid there are internal ghosts among you, right?" ”
Han Jian's words made everyone present nervous.
"This king got married, and the route he was going to take had already been notified to the Taishou Mansion, so that the Taishou Mansion would send someone to check along the way, and the assassins were all in the shops along the way, what does this mean?"
"East King...... Ming Cha ......" Ning Zhongping knew that he couldn't explain this, and said in a cold sweat on his head, "These things were all ...... before. The guards of the East Palace's mansion personally did it......"
"Before?" Han Jian said with a smile, "Has the East Wangfu had such a wedding event over the years? ”
Ning Zhongping was completely speechless. (To be continued......)
