Han Jian and Yang Li'er personally led twenty guards in the direction of the Chinese army's big tent, and before that, Han Jian had already informed Zhang Xing and asked him to lead three hundred elite soldiers to detain the envoys who were traveling with the empress and wait for orders at any time.

The night was full, Han Jian led people to the door of the Chinese army's big tent, at this time there were a few braziers lit outside the big tent, and the lights were bright inside, Han Jian expected that the empress was still inside.

When he arrived at the door, Han Jian was about to enter, but he saw the curtain opened, and Fa also walked out of it.

"His Royal Highness the East King?" Fa Yi glanced at Han Jian, in front of people, she maintained basic respect for Han Jian, "What's the matter?" ”

"Master, please get out of the way!" Han Jian said, and with a hello, Han Jian's guard entered the big tent.

Fa Yi hurriedly said: "Jian'er, what are you doing?" ”

"Master, even if you don't help me, please stand by!" Han Jian said, entering the big tent, but found that the people inside were empty, and the empress was no longer inside.

Han Jian turned to look at Fa Yi and asked, "Master, what about people?" ”

Fa Yi looked a little evasive, and said, "Jian'er, there are some things ......."

Han Jian shouted: "I only ask you? ”

"Gone." Fa Yi said calmly.

"Back to Jiangdu? Master, you escorted her away? Han Jian looked at Fa Yi coldly, Han Jian didn't know that the empress had martial arts, in his opinion, the empress could escape so many eyes from the barracks, it was impossible to do it without Fa Yi's help. If Fa Yi helped the empress go, it meant that Fa Yi chose the latter between him and the empress, which made Han Jian feel very heartbroken.

"Can I speak privately?" Fa also looked at the soldiers in the tent, and was a little embarrassed.

Han Jian said: "Say it here! ”

Fa Yi said helplessly: "Yes...... Walked on their own. When I came. I only saw two letters left on the table, one for you, and the other for me to pass on to several princesses. Two letters to me...... I've seen them all. ”

As he spoke, Fa Yi took out the two letters from his arms and handed them to Han Jian.

Han Jian took the letter in his hand and opened the letter to the princess of the county first. In the letter, the empress instructed several princesses of the county to take good care of Han Jian and help Han Jian preside over the military and political affairs of Jiangdu, but the letter did not mention King Qin. There was no mention of Han Jian's marriage proposal. Han Jian opened a letter to himself. The empress's words were also very calm, just asking him to take good care of his body, saying that he was tired and had to let go of Yunyun at every opportunity.

In the letter. Han Jian couldn't feel how much the Empress hated him for his request. On the contrary, it is really like a stepmother. There is a lot of care between the words. The empress's attitude was as if she was tired of some earthly things and needed to find a place to recuperate.

Han Jian finished reading the two letters. looked at Fa Yidao and said, "...... Did you say where it went? ”

"Jian'er, I'll even you and ...... I don't know what happened between you, and you are in such a hurry, how do I know? Fa Ye said a little anxiously, "So how can you go back and explain to a few princesses of the county?" Now...... If you don't return to the city, I'm afraid there will be no one to preside over the overall situation. ”

Han Jian saw that Fa also looked like this, and thought to himself, could it be that this is the empress's strategy, pretending to leave, but in fact, he will return to the city first, and when he returns to the city, he will hold him, and then settle the account after the autumn?

Han Jian wasn't sure what he was thinking, he naturally hoped that it wouldn't be as he thought.

"Master, please also go back to the city overnight and tell a few princesses about it." Han Jian said, "As for me going back to the city, I still need to prepare." ”

Fa Yi nodded, and said helplessly: "Since you insist on this, then you are not reluctant to be a teacher." As a teacher, you should hurry back and inform a few princesses of the county about this news, and you should take care of your health. ”

Han Jian sent Fa Yi out, and at the same time gave Fa Yi a pass token in the barracks and asked the guards to escort her out.

When the others left, Han Jian took the letter given to him by the empress, but felt that the letter was a little heavy.

If the empress really leaves, it means that the empress has a good heart and is not ready to embarrass him. That is, he misunderstood the empress's kindness from beginning to end. If this is the case, then the empress does treat him as a son, and being proposed to by his son in his own eyes will cause what kind of trouble this will cause to the empress, making Han Jian think about it, and feel that he was a little too abrupt before.

"Xianggong, are you alright?" Yang Li'er saw that Han Jian's face was not good, and asked.

"It's fine. Wait here for Guard Zhang to come over. Han Jian motioned for the guards to go out first, leaving only him and Yang Li'er in the big tent of the Chinese army.

After a short time, Zhang Xing brought someone over to report to Han Jian. Han Jian instructed him to detain all the envoys traveling with the empress, and he had already done it, and came over to ask Han Jian what to do next.

"People will be seized for the time being, and they will be treated kindly, and as for how to deal with it, we will talk about it later." Han Jian said.

"Yes." Zhang Xing received the order first, and then said, "Young boy, I don't know...... Where is it now? ”

When the empress came to the barracks, Zhang Xing had seen it with his own eyes, and now he had taken everyone down, but the empress was missing, so Zhang Xing would naturally have some doubts.

Han Jian said: "Your Majesty should go back to the city." Guard Zhang, you have to keep this matter a secret, and you must not disclose it to anyone, can you know? ”

"Yes." Zhang Xing glanced at Yang Li'er, since Han Jian did not shy away from saying "Your Majesty" in Yang Li'er, it means that Yang Li'er is also very clear about this matter.

Zhang Xing took the order and left, Han Jian was still preoccupied, and Yang Li'er accompanied Han Jian to keep watch in the big tent of the Chinese army all night.

At noon the next day, another group of envoys came from Jiangdu City, and the arrival of these envoys was different from the previous ones, because it was the current head of the Dongwang Mansion who brought people over, Han Jian's second mother, Han Song.

Han Song's clan came over with Han Jian's Jiuniang Han Zhao clan, and they all hurried over to see Han Jian after getting the news of the empress's departure.

"Where is the king of the east? I want to see the East King! ”

As soon as Han Jian inquired at the door of the Chinese army's tent, he heard Han Song shouting to his entourage inside.

"Erniang." Han Jian opened the curtain and saluted.

"Jian'er ......" Han Song's family saw Han Jian, hurriedly stepped forward, and was about to ask urgently, only to find that there were many irrelevant people around him, including Yang Li'er, who Han Jian had just married, "You step down first, this princess has something to tell the king of the east." ”

The guards were ordered to retreat, and Yang Li'er was about to go out, but was stopped by Han Jian.

"Jian'er, this matter ...... I'm afraid that Miss Yang can't listen to it. Han Song said.

"What did Erniang say, she is now my wife, I told her the truth of the matter yesterday, what else is there to avoid?" Han Jian said.

Han Songshi didn't expect Han Jian to be so honest with Yang Li'er, and sighed: "That is the case, then Erniang asked you, why did Your Majesty leave?" Your master said that you had a secret conversation with your majesty for a long time yesterday, and then your majesty looked displeased, and then you said goodbye without saying goodbye. But what kind of conflict has arisen between you and Your Majesty? ”

"Erniang, I think you're too careful." Han Jian naturally wouldn't tell Han Songshi about his proposal to the empress, since the empress didn't have the face to say this kind of thing, he was even more shameless, "Your Majesty said goodbye, I also feel very confused." The most important thing now should be to find your majesty. ”

Hearing Han Jian say this, Han Song's expression was a little nervous, and he said, "If people know that His Majesty is leaving, how can I explain to the people of the world in the East Palace?" Now how to settle those loyal ministers and good generals who came with His Majesty in the city? ”

Han Jian thought to himself, no matter whether the empress really left or not, it was better to take precautions in advance. The loyal ministers and good generals that Han Song said were talking about the official generals who came from Luoyang with Empress Sui Tong, and these people formed the small court of Jiangdu, and these people were originally Han Jian's confidants, but at this time, they became the first objects of Han Jian's placement. The departure of the empress had the greatest impact on these people in Jiangdu.

Han Jian said: "Your Majesty left, Erniang just said that Her Majesty was sick, and she didn't see anyone." ”

Han Songshi said: "Calling the illness can only be concealed for a while, how can it be a long-term solution?" ”

Han Jian said: "How long has His Majesty been away now, we don't know, maybe His Majesty will come back soon?" Even if we don't come back for a long time, we just have to find someone to pretend to be Majesty and find someone to visit from time to time, so that we can also stop those who are suspicious. ”

Han Songshi sighed: "This can only be so. Your Majesty walks like this, you must not let the world know, otherwise how will I deal with the East Palace? Jian'er, you also have to enter the city earlier, now I will be in chaos in the north, without you, there will be trouble everywhere in the East Palace. ”

"Okay." Han Jian said, "When I finish disposing of the matter at hand, I will go back." ”

Han Song nodded, she probably knew the reason why Han Jian didn't want to go back to the city, now Han Jian said that there was something to do, she couldn't expose Han Jian, Han Jian was now an adult, and he was already the rightful king of the East, she knew very well that it was time to transfer the military and political power of the East Wangfu to Han Jian.

Sending Han Song and Han Zhao away, Han Jian was still not sure if the empress was in the city now. In extraordinary times, Han Jian's suspicion is also the reason why he is very cautious, if the empress is hypocritical, and then use some words to fool his aunts, it is not uncommon for Han Song and Han Zhao to come to the military camp today.

The main reason is that these aunts of his always treat him as a child, so the empress has a lot of arguments, and it is impossible to say that it is impossible to say it, even if it is Han Song and Han Cui. Then he will go into the city and be an empty king of the east, no different from a caged bird.

Now Han Jian can only send people into the city to investigate the situation first, and the people who go to investigate cannot be involved with the Dongwang Mansion and the empress's forces, Han Jian thinks about it, and only Mrs. Luo's people are the most suitable. But Han Jian couldn't explain the matter too obviously, let Mrs. Luo know that the empress might not be in the city, Han Jian thought about it, this statement is also very important.

Han Jian first found some of Mrs. Luo's eyeliner in the barracks and asked them to notify Mrs. Luo. Two days later, the Luo Lady sent back and forth, describing in detail the military and political changes in Jiangdu City, and Han Jian analyzed that the possibility that the empress was not in the city was very high.

But Han Jian still can't rest assured, he still needs further confirmation. He quickly thought of a good candidate, which was Yang Luochuan, the king of the south. Han Jian immediately went to the military camp of Xinnan Wangfu and discussed with Yang Luochuan to send envoys into the city to put pressure on the empress. (To be continued......)
