Although Lin Xiaoshu has lived in Luoyang for many years, she is not from Luoyang, she herself is from the Southern Dynasties and came to the north with the fleeing team, and she does not have too deep feelings for Luoyang. In the face of an unstable life, or in troubled times, the most intimate thing is not the care between people, but from material security.

Han Jian was not reluctant, and accompanied Lin Xiaoshu to the yamen of the military station to meet Lin Zhan. Lin Zhan was also busy with the handover of guards during the day, and he didn't have time to pay attention to whether Lin Xiaoshu returned to Luoyang. Lin Xiaoshu's life has been a little adrift for more than a year, and he is still more stable than Lin Zhan's southern and northern wars.

Watching the reunion of his brothers and sisters, Han Jian felt like a light bulb, but he still had to play the role of the "light bulb" to the end.

Han Jian saw that the two brothers and sisters were almost over, got up and said with a smile: "It's not to interfere with the two of you, but it's almost time to go to the next shift, Xiao Shu should also go back to Dongwang Mansion with me to rest and sleep, and when your little nephew comes back in a few days, it's not too late to get together again." ”

Lin Zhan probably heard some meaning, nodded and said: "What Your Highness said is that I have been busy with military affairs these days, and I don't have much time to accompany my little sister, and after this while, Luoyang will settle down and have more time to go out for a walk with my little sister and Xiaoyun." ”

Lin Xiaoshu looked at his brother and then at Han Jian, and then nodded a little reluctantly: "Then second brother, you are busy first, don't bother too much." ”

After that, Lin Xiaoshu's eyes were a little red, thinking of the impact of unstable life, she also hoped that the family could be reunited as soon as possible.

When he went to Dongwangfu with Han Jian, Han Cui's family and the others had already gone to bed early, and they didn't know that Lin Xiaoshu was coming. Now Lin Xiaoshu's status in the Eastern Palace's mansion and even the imperial court system is becoming more and more obvious, and it stands to reason that when she comes back, Han Cui's and others also need to come out to see each other to show their closeness.

Han Jian said: "Xiao Shu." There are a lot of empty rooms in the east wing, and they are all cleaned up, so I don't know what you like, so I went over to choose a room. After a period of time, you don't need to leave Luoyang, just stay in Dongwangfu and wait for you Xiaoyun to come back. ”

Lin Xiaoshu was still a little skeptical: "Xiaoyun can really come back in the next few days?" ”

"Hmm." Han Jian nodded. "I've already said hello to Nanwang's Mansion, and Nanwang personally allowed it, and it is estimated that it will arrive in the next few days."

Lin Xiaoshu lowered his head slightly, and said gratefully: "Thank you young son for taking care of my family, even Xiaoyun's life was saved by young son, and now he has been able to get out of danger......

Han Jian smiled and patted Lin Xiaoshu on the shoulder and said, "One family, why do you have to talk about two families?" ”

No matter how stupid Lin Xiaoshu was, she could hear what was in her voice, and her cheeks couldn't help but be slightly hot. He didn't dare to raise his head to look at Han Jian.

Han Jian said again: "Tomorrow, the envoys of Nanqi will come over, the imperial court is not short of money and food, I am going to arrange for Xiao Shu to be in charge of the reception, Xiao Shu, do you understand what I mean?" ”

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoshu's embarrassed expression also disappeared, and he raised his head and asked with a wise shrewdness: "Isn't the young boy going to ...... Pit the Nanqi people again? ”

"It used to be easy, but now it's hard." Han Jian sighed and said, "And it's not Zhu Tongjing who came this time." It's the eldest princess of the Southern Dynasty, because of this. It's not appropriate to send other officials to greet you, and it's only appropriate for you to go after thinking about it, after all, it's easy for women to talk to each other. ”

Lin Xiaoshu's expression was a little confused, she used to be just a vendor with a tea stall on the street, but now it's good, the envoy of the eldest princess of a country will be greeted by her in person. She was suddenly a little unaccustomed to this kind of change, and she was afraid that she would mess things up.

Han Jian said with a smile: "Xiao Shu, you just remember that you must lose your national body, as for whether you can 'borrow' the money and food again, you don't force it, in short, the matter will be left to you." I'm relieved. ”

"Hmm." Although Lin Xiaoshu looked a little unconfident, he still nodded.

Then Han Jian personally sent Lin Xiaoshu to the East Chamber, and let Lin Xiaoshu choose a room before coming out and entering the inner courtyard.

……

……

The next day, Han Jiangang got up from Gentle Township and got dressed and went to the main hall under the service of Gu Xin'er and Wen'er, but found that Han Cui's was entertaining Lin Xiaoshu in the main hall.

At the same time, Han Zhao, who will leave Luoyang and return to Jiangdu with troops. Originally, the family was going to have a final breakfast, but because Lin Xiaoshu came over, Han Cui's also specially entertained him.

Seeing Han Jian, Lin Xiaoshu wanted to get up to greet her, but in the face of Han Jian's wife, she didn't know how to deal with it. Han Jian's relatives she has rarely seen, and even before they met, they passed by in a hurry, and they didn't even communicate with each other.

"Jian'er, you too, Steward Lin came back all the way, and he didn't wake up Sanniang to come out and entertain her. I learned in the morning when I got a report from my subordinates. Han Cuishi complained a little.

Han Jian glanced at Lin Xiaoshu with a smile and said, "Steward Lin is his own person, sometimes he doesn't need to be too formal. ”

Han Cui's didn't say much more, Han Song's previous mention of Han Jian's inclusion of Lin Xiaoshu in the mansion was not a secret among Han Cui's and other female dependents, but Gu Xin'er and Wen'er didn't know about it.

Not long after, Yang Li'er also came over, and after the family had breakfast, Han Jian wanted to send Han Zhao to lead the troops on the road, and Lin Xiaoshu was the envoy who went to meet the Southern Dynasty.

Han Jian went to the east gate, while Lin Xiaoshu went to the south gate.

By the time Han Jian sent Han Zhao and the army of Dongwangfu away, it was already past noon, and at this time he heard that the envoys of the Southern Dynasty had entered Luoyang City and temporarily rested in the post house.

Han Jian had long heard of the eldest princess of the Southern Dynasty, and he went to the Southern Dynasty two years ago, and he did not have the opportunity to meet Xiao Zhan, the eldest princess of the Southern Dynasty, which was a big regret in his mind. He didn't know that in fact, he still had a lot of fate with Xiao Zhan, and he had seen Xiao Zhan with his own eyes at the banquet he had entertained for the empress when he first came to Luoyang, but at that time he didn't know that the woman who was dancing the sword in the court was the noble eldest princess of the Southern Dynasty.

Han Jian returned to the Dongwang Mansion, and Lin Xiaoshu, who happened to be in charge of welcoming Xiao Zhan and his party, also returned.

Lin Xiaoshu reported on the situation of the envoys of the Southern Dynasty, and these situations did not go beyond the scope of Han Jian's intelligence investigation. Because the chief envoy of the Southern Dynasty is Xiao Zhan, there are many female dependents in the envoy team this time, most of whom serve Xiao Zhan's daily life, and none of the officials accompanying the envoy of the Southern Dynasty are known to Han Jian, and they are all unknown officials from the list. However, in the Southern Dynasties, these officials can also be divided into factions, basically belonging to the Queen Mother's Party and the Xie Party, but Zhu Tongjing's people do not seem to follow.

But Han Jian had already investigated and learned that Xiao Zhan and Zhu Tongjing were very close, and Xiao Zhan was alone, which meant that Zhu Tongjing also sent someone.

On the first day when the envoys of the Southern Qi Dynasty arrived in Luoyang, Han Jian did not go to see him, and the person sent by the imperial court to receive him was Lin Xiaoshu, and Lin Xiaoshu only sent the envoys to the post house and then returned, without staying long.

Xiao Zhan is a woman after all, and she will not change when she goes out, and if she is replaced by other envoys, the person in charge of reception will inevitably take the envoys to walk around Luoyang City. Now it is the time when the spring flowers are blooming, although the catkins have not yet flown away, but the city is full of spring. In addition, the lifting of martial law in Luoyang City, which lasted for half a year, also made the city everywhere show a thriving scene of waste waiting to be lifted. Even Han Jian had his spare time, and he wanted to go to Luoyang City to walk around.

By 21 February, the day after the arrival of the envoys of the Southern Dynasty in Luoyang, the Wei Dynasty had not yet given the envoys a specific schedule for their reception, but the envoys of the Southern Dynasty took the initiative to request a meeting.

As an envoy of the Southern Dynasties, Xiao Zhan knew very well that the relationship with the Northern Dynasties was very delicate, and this delicate relationship not only came from diplomatic friendship, but also from diplomatic games. The friendship between the Southern Dynasty and Luoyang will mean that it is the Western Wangfu and the Northern Wangfu that are offended, and what Luoyang's attitude towards the Southern Dynasty is not something that the Southern Dynasty can decide, in general, the Luoyang Imperial Court wants to use the relationship between the Southern Dynasty to stabilize the Jiangbei, and the Southern Dynasty wants to make the Northern Dynasty unpeaceful by befriending the Luoyang Imperial Court.

Each has a ghost.

After Han Jian sent the army away, he wanted to be quiet for a few days, after all, now the war situation in the north has also turned to a stalemate, and the Xiwangfu also slowed down after occupying many cities in Beichuan, stationed some soldiers and horses, and also withdrew the army to Guanzhong. At this time, it was also the time for the three-legged war buffer period in the north, and he could calm down and rest, so as to accumulate strength for the war in the north in the future. At this time, the envoys of the Southern Dynasty came, in fact, it also brought some waves to his peaceful life, after all, the envoys of the Southern Dynasty were related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and the envoys would inevitably push Luoyang to the focus of attention of the world.

In the past two years, the Southern Dynasties have been indifferent to the chaos that has taken place in the North, and this has also puzzled many people, and in the eyes of some people, it is the inability of the Southern Dynasties to unify the North, and this is also related to the national conditions of the two countries.

The Southern Dynasties have not invaded the territory of the Northern Dynasties on a large scale for decades, but the Northern Dynasties, every ten or twenty years, will launch a large-scale war of aggression against the South, although in the end it will end dismally, but this also shows the problem, that is, the Southern Dynasties are more inclined to favor the side of peace.

Han Jian looked at the flowers in the courtyard in the Dongwang Mansion, and it was Lin Xiaoshu who came to convey the tone of the envoys of the Southern Dynasty.

Seeing that Han Jian and Lin Xiaoshu had something serious to say, Gu Xin'er and Wen'er, who had originally come to accompany them, also went back to the room for the time being. Han Jian hesitated for a moment, he wanted to dry the envoys of the Southern Dynasty for a few days, but thinking that this would bring some negative effects on diplomacy, he threw away the fish food in his hand and said to Lin Xiaoshu: "In the past, there was a rumor that there was a banquet in the Eastern Palace's Mansion tonight, and the envoys of the Southern Dynasty would be entertained in private, and we would see if the envoys of the Southern Dynasty would come." ”

Gifts are still exchanged, and Han Jian has always felt that this is very appropriate.

When he went to the Southern Dynasty, he was also hung by the Southern Dynasty, but Xie Rumo invited him to the house for dinner first, which almost killed him. This time, he painted the scoop according to the gourd, and did not come to the official banquet in the name of the imperial court, but invited the envoys of the Southern Dynasty to come over in a private capacity. I just want to test whether Xiao Zhan, the eldest princess of the envoy of the Southern Dynasty, dares to come to the house. (To be continued......)
