In the Wenhou Hall of the Imperial Palace, Han Jian came out together accompanied by Fa Yi, and at this time, the Venerable Zuo Gu, who had already entered the palace gate, stood in the palace with a calm face to welcome Han Jian's arrival, but Ke Qu'er was not seen.

"Senpai, please take a seat." Han Jian said casually and sat down on a chair in the Wenhou Palace. On weekdays, the Wenhou Palace is just a place in the palace for officials to rest, because the court is now deserted, Yang Rui temporarily ignores the government, and the officials will go directly to Ye'an Pavilion even if they have something to do in the palace, so the Wenhou Palace has been deserted for too long.

Zuo Gu said: "Reckless people don't dare to make a mistake in the palace. After speaking, he still stood still, and did not immediately explain his intentions.

Fa Yi did not wear a weapon when she entered the palace, she came with Han Jian more to protect Han Jian against unforeseen things, if the cultivation of the Venerable Zuo Gu was to be unfavorable to Han Jian, although Fa Yi's skills could not completely subdue the Venerable Zuo Gu, but he could also make Han Jian get out lightly. Because of the fact that Yang Yu, the eldest brother of Nanwang and Yang Li'er, was kidnapped by the Zuogu Master, Han Jian was also wary of this woman.

Han Jian said: "If the seniors have anything to say, if they are able to do it, they will definitely help." ”

Zuo Gu Shangren looked at Fa Yi slightly, it seemed that Fa Yi was present, and there were some things that she couldn't say directly. Han Jian said: "Neizi is not an outsider, but it doesn't hurt to say it to the seniors." ”

"Uchiko?" Master Zuo Gu frowned, and then realized that Fa Ye had married into the Dongwang Mansion, and she knew that there were many women on Han Jian's side, but because Fa Ye was Han Jian's master, even if she lived in the Dongwang Mansion for a few months, she didn't know that Fa Ye had been accepted by Han Jian, and when she understood, she seemed to disapprove and shook her head, as if she felt that Han Jian's practice of marrying his master as his wife was very unreasonable.

After a pause, Zuo Gu said, "The person who the East King asked for has already arrived in Luoyang. You can hand it over to the king of the east at any time. ”

Han Jian knew that the person he was asking for was Yang Yu. Before he went to Guanzhong, he offered to exchange Yang Qingle for Yang Yu, and he had been on the expedition for the next few months, thinking that the Venerable Zuogu had already sent someone to send Yang Yu to Luoyang, which could be exchanged at any time. If it was in the past, this deal would not be a loss for Han Jian. Yang Qingle is just a down-and-out royal clansman, even if there are people with Prince Yan Ning behind her who want to hijack her and make a move in politics, but those people can't become a climate for the time being. Yang Yu is different, in terms of intimacy, it is Yang Li'er's brother, and he is the son of Nanwangfu. If Yang Yu falls into the hands of Huang Shilang, the Marquis of Zhennan, then Yang Luochuan's value is not so great, as long as he puts Yang Luochuan and Yang Yu's father and son under house arrest in Luoyang City, then the Nanwang Mansion has always been under the orders of the imperial court in name.

"The senior wants to exchange immediately. Or will you keep someone in custody for the time being and exchange it in the future? Han Jian asked with a smile.

Master Zuo Gu said calmly: "I have been bothering in the Dongwang Mansion for a long time, if I can, I will exchange people immediately, and I will also leave Luoyang and go south." ”

"The Orderer?" Han Jian also cares more about Ke Qu'er, in his opinion, even if the Venerable Zuo Gu is exchanged, it should be exchanged for one and get one free, so that Ke Qu'er can get rid of the "clutches" of the Venerable Zuo Gu earlier, and he will not have to run for those conspiracies to subvert the imperial court. It is also a prerequisite for him to make Ke Qu'er feel at ease to stay by his side and be his woman.

"She is in the East King's Mansion, and she will not go south with me." Left Valley on the humane.

Han Jian nodded and said, "The senior is really a refreshing person. How about the agreed time and place, and how about we exchange people? ”

Master Zuo Gu didn't expect Han Jian to be so happy as he agreed, she was still a little guarded and said, "The East King will really hand over the people?" ”

"Although I don't want to make an exchange, since I promised my predecessors, I should keep my promise. Seniors should also put sincerity first, and don't be untrustworthy. ”

The Upper Master Zuoya nodded: "This is nature. ”

The conversation is simple. Since the Venerable Zuo Gu is willing to hand over Yang Luo, it is a good thing for Han Jian, Yang Li'er has always had a good relationship with her brother, Yang Li'er was depressed after learning that Yang Luochuan was still in Luoyang, and now rescuing her brother can be regarded as making her happier. This is Han Jian's personal consideration. In terms of northern stability. Whether it is the imperial court or the Eastern Palace, they are unable to launch a war against Yuzhou in a short period of time, with Yang Yu and Yang Luochuan in their hands at the same time, if the Marquis of Zhennan still wants to be an enemy of the imperial court, he can only take the risk and even fight against the father and son of the king of Nan. Judging from Zhennanhou's current old age and in-law relationship with Yang Luochuan, he is not old enough to get to this point.

The place and time are agreed, and the safety of the people of Zuogu has nothing to do with the East Palace. Han Jian didn't want to keep her longer, if Yang Rui had been exhausted for the court for half his life, this woman had been thinking about how to be an enemy of the court for half her life. And she is a dangerous person with outstanding martial arts and cannot be approached by ordinary people, so it is always good for such people to go farther. Han Jian had already learned from the female prisoners of Prince Yan Ning's faction that they were now focused on getting rid of the Zuo Gu Shangren as soon as possible, and Han Jian also hoped that the people of Yan Ning's Prince Yan Ning faction and the Zuo Gu Shangren would eat dogs, and he could watch the fire from the other side.

asked the Venerable Zuo Gu to be sent out of the palace, and Han Jiancai and Fa Yi went back to see Yang Rui together. Yang Rui said that she wanted to rest, after Han Jian left, she was depressed and could still sleep, and when she saw Han Jian going and returning, she still lay there in a posture, looking ignorant.

"I just met the Shotani Master." As soon as Han Jian sat down and said, Yang Rui turned his head back. Han Jian had already told her before that he wanted to exchange Yang Qingle for Yang Yu, although Yang Rui didn't agree, but in her opinion, Yang Qingle's value was indeed not as great as Yang Yu.

Yang Rui said: "She is in the Dongwang Mansion every day, do you want to see it at any time, do you have to come to the palace?" Or did you come to the palace to see her for another purpose? ”

Han Jian sighed, Yang Rui still habitually thinks about everything, about this is also the inertia of power schemes, with Yang Rui's status and sense of self-preservation, he will guard against everyone, and he will also have a backup for everything. This is something that Han Jian cannot accept.

Han Jian said: "Right now, the people of Prince Yan Ning's faction want to deal with the master and apprentice of Master Zuogu, I want her to leave early, so as not to involve these things in the Eastern Palace." ”

Yang Rui snorted lightly and said, "Then you still want to stay by her side as an apprentice?" ”

Han Jian didn't answer, the woman beside him was a thorn in Yang Rui's heart after all, no matter who it was, she couldn't accept it, let alone Ke Qu'er, who was born recklessly. Han Jian now left Ke Qu'er and sent Zuo Gu Master away, also so that Ke Qu'er could be isolated from her master earlier, so that Zuo Gu would die in the future. It won't involve Ke Qu'er too much.

After sitting for a while, the two were also in a stalemate for a while, Han Jian got up and said, "You are so resting, I have time to enter the palace to see you!" ”

Yang Rui was angry and ignored Han Jian, but in his heart he really wanted Han Jian to stay and talk to her more. At this time, Yang Rui needs someone to accompany him even more. But Han Jian also has a lot of things to deal with, now Yang Rui can't take care of the government, many things in the court need someone to preside over, the court still has one less minister who can take charge of himself, and even Gu Weipan belongs to the middle faction and can't take on some things.

came out of the palace, and it happened that Ning Xiuyan, Yang Xiuxiu and Ning Shun'er's sedan chair also came over, and Han Jian originally promised to accompany the three daughters to visit the palace. At this time, he had to go to work, so he could only let Fa Yi accompany him. In addition, Yang Rui was in a bad mood before, and Han Jian also specially told Yang Rui and Ning Xiuyan not to go to Yang Rui's bedroom. Even if you ask for peace, you don't need to.

After the explanation, Han Jian hurriedly went to the yamen of the military station. In addition to discussing some matters in the north and Guanzhong, he also had to explain the matter of receiving Yang Yu, if the Venerable Zuo Gu just took the opportunity to rob Yang Qingle and had no intention of exchanging people, Han Jian also had to take precautions in advance.

In the afternoon, Han Jian personally led the guards and officers and soldiers to the outer city to exchange hostages with the Zuogu Shangren. Yang Qingle was finally escorted out of the secret cell where he was imprisoned and carried over with him in the carriage. When I arrived at the place, the people of Zuogu did not arrive. And Yang Yu has no news. After the appointed time, there was still no trace of anyone, and Han Jian felt like something had happened.

"Young boy, what should I do?" The guards who came with Han Jian asked.

"Escort the people back." Han Jian looked at the noisy street outside, this time he brought someone over to leak the news, if Zuo Gu Shangren deliberately did not show up and wanted to follow the carriage to find Yang Qingle and rob her afterwards, this trick would be too inferior. Han Jian asked himself if he had the ability to protect Yang Qingle without leaking. Although he also felt in his heart that the Zuo Gu Master was not a good person, it was not to the point of being untrustworthy in this way, if it wasn't for the conspiracy of the Zuo Gu Master, then something would have happened to her.

"Send someone to investigate in the city and see if anything else is going on." Han Jian sent someone to escort Yang Qingle back at the same time. I also explained to Onishiyanagi, who came over after hearing the news.

To investigate the affairs of the Zuo Gu Shangren, Da Xi Liu is not the best candidate, Da Xi Liu's role in the intelligence system is mainly responsible for the Guanzhong system and the southern Yuzhou system and even the Southern Qi system, for the investigation of the old department of Prince Yan Ning, Han Jian assigned someone else, that is, Yi Die, who had been working for the imperial court. After occupying Yi Die, Han Jian also abided by the original agreement, and did not have too many restrictions on Yi Die's freedom, she could still investigate her intelligence during the day, and even sent some people to help, but at night, Yi Die had to go back to the small courtyard that Han Jian placed for her, just like a concubine waiting for the edict, even if Han Jian, the "emperor", did not go, she had to abide by her duty.

I have to say that after Yi Die committed to Han Jian, although he was repulsed in his heart, he could be regarded as doing his best to serve, but Han Jian didn't have many times in the past. Many of Yi Die's helpers are also eyeliner, staring closely at Yi Die's words and deeds.

After coming back from the outer city, Han Jian was going to go back to the Dongwang Mansion directly, but he had no intention of asking about the things in the palace, only to know that Ning Xiuyan's three daughters had not come out after entering the palace, and even Fa Ye had not returned to the Dongwang Mansion in the palace.

Han Jian was afraid that Yang Rui was deliberately making things difficult, so he had to greet him in person. went to the palace to ask in detail, and learned that Yang Rui personally recruited the four women, including Fa Yi, to his side to speak.

Han Jian almost arrived at Yang Rui's bedroom in the inner garden of the palace, and when he went outside, he saw a lot of palace maids and eunuchs waiting outside, while Hui'er was standing cautiously outside, as if something big had happened inside.

"These people, what's going on?" Han Jian asked Hui'er directly.

Hui'er hurriedly saluted and said: "Back to Your Highness, it is the slaves and maids that Your Majesty has rewarded to several nobles, saying that they are taking care of the living conditions of several nobles. ”

"Oh?" Han Jian narrowed his eyes, Yang Rui was so kind to reward Ning Xiuyan and Yang Xiuxiu for their palace maids and eunuchs? This is clearly for an ulterior purpose.

Han Jian didn't say much, went directly inside, lifted the curtain and went to Yang Rui's bedroom, Yang Rui was sitting on the bed with a headscarf on his head, and looked at the four girls who were sitting side by side on the chairs in front of the table with a smile on his face. These four women are all competing for favor with Yang Rui, and Han Jian has always been inseparable from each other, how can Yang Rui's character be kind to each other? Han Jian thought to himself, could it be that he sensed that he was coming, and deliberately put on a posture to show him?

"See Majesty." Han Jian saluted.

Yang Rui smiled: "Why is the husband still so polite? In front of her sisters, she should be a concubine to ask her husband for peace. ”

From the smile on Yang Rui's face, Han Jian felt that she must have some kind of ghost idea in her heart. After Yang Rui gave birth to her daughter, she naturally felt that other women on Han Jian's side would become an obstacle to her, compared to age, she was not as young as the women in front of her, age is the most worrying issue for women, followed by heirs, which is the most critical factor in whether or not she can fix her pet. Now she doesn't occupy these two points, but she is the Ninety-Five, Han Jian may have to tolerate some, but this is an advantage and will become the biggest hidden danger in the future, after all, Han Jian is now a powerful minister and has a power conflict with her, and it is precisely because of this that she often quarreled with Han Jian and the Cold War before.

Han Jian didn't want to get too close to Yang Rui in front of the women, so he said to Ning Xiu at the moment: "It's not too early, go out of the palace and go back immediately, and then enter the palace to ask Your Majesty for peace when you have time in the future." ”

Ning Xiuyan, Fa Yi and Yang Xiuxiu all understood the matter, and got up directly to leave, but Ning Shun'er blinked her eyes and looked at Han Jian with a puzzled expression, as if she didn't understand why Han Jian wanted to drive her away.

For a scheming little girl like Ning Shun'er, the beauty of the palace is the only one she has seen in her life, plus even the high-ranking emperor has kind words for her, and even entertains her with tea fruits, this kind of paradise on earth can really stay for a while longer, but when she goes back, she is dull and bored, living the same day every day. Seeing that Ning Shun'er didn't move, Ning Xiuyan directly pulled her up, Ning Shun'er just stood firm, raised her head and saw the smile on Yang Rui's face, and she laughed too.

Han Jian sighed in his heart, Yang Rui is taking the opportunity to buy these women who don't even have a reputation?

In terms of scheming, among the women on Han Fitness's side, Ning Xiuyan's words are very much, but she is really small compared to Yang Rui, and she is on the bright side, but all the women Yang Rui has seen on Han Fitness's side, there is no one who is not greeted by a smile or even a sister, but when she turns her head, he will not give a good face when he is a father-in-law. This is not clear, if you want to beat a stick, give a sweet date to eat first? (To be continued......)
