Yang Xi knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to the curtain, very excited.

Han Jian wanted to help him up and go in, but Yang Xi refused, Han Jian had to open the curtain first and go inside, at this time Yang Rui had heard Yang Xi's voice outside, struggling to sit down, Han Jian helped her sit up, and Yang Rui had already shed tears.

"It's Xi'er?" Yang Rui's pronunciation was still very difficult, and he asked in some obscurity.

"Yes, the prince is back." Han Jian said.

Yang Rui wanted to say something more, but after all, he couldn't do anything, and pointed in the direction of the door, Han Jian naturally understood that Yang Rui wanted to see Yang Xi sooner.

Han Jian first placed Yang Rui and asked her to sit against the window, and then went out to urge Yang Xi to hurry in. Who knew that Yang Xi was still dead, and he refused to get up when he knelt on the ground.

"What is this like Prince? Why don't you go in and meet your majesty? Han Jian said.

Yang Xi sobbed and said, "I...... I don't have the face to see my sister. ”

"No face, that's your sister too." Han Jian almost shouted, but it scared Yang Xi, Yang Xi's body trembled, and he even stopped crying. It seems that he still has some fear for Han Jian's shouting, maybe it is the shadow left by his previous time in Nanqi.

"Let's go." Han Jian didn't care so much, helped him up and walked inside.

When the curtain was lifted and he arrived inside, before he took two steps, Yang Xi immediately began to kneel and kowtow again.

"Xi'er ......" Yang Rui shouted, although she is a younger brother, she regards it as her own, this younger brother is also her most distressed on weekdays, plus Yang Xi has suffered too much in Nanqi, and she has always thought that this is her own responsibility, so she has always felt very guilty in her heart, and she feels sorry for this good brother.

Yang Xi raised his head, only to find that Yang Rui seemed to be different from before, and he was very haggard. And his body was immobilized by a splint, as if he was injured.

"Sister, you ......"

Even if Yang Xi didn't have the face to see anyone anymore, he didn't care too much at this time, crawled to the edge of the bed, and looked at Yang Rui. seems to wonder why Yang Rui, who has always been young and healthy, has become like this.

But Yang Rui was obviously unable to answer him now, so Yang Xi had no choice but to turn his head to look at Han Jian, with an inquiring intent in his eyes.

"Your sister was accidentally injured, don't worry too much, it's fine. Now that you are back, your sister will be happy, and her wounds will heal sooner. ”

Han Jian smiled slightly, but saluted: "Don't disturb His Majesty and the prince, the minister will retire." ”

At this time. Han Jian also knew that he was left like a light bulb, so it was better to wait outside first. For the Yang family, he is an outsider.

Han Jian walked out of the palace gate, and he didn't go far, at this time, the palace maid and eunuch had dispersed, and only Hui'er was waiting at the entire palace gate. Seeing Han Jian coming out, Hui'er didn't dare to walk away, after all, she had to take care of Yang Rui's daily life. Now Yang Rui is injured, and he needs to be taken care of when he eats, drinks, and Lazar. She was also tired enough in the past two days.

"Alas!"

Han Jian couldn't help sighing, and sat down directly on the low steps of the flower bed, and Hui'er walked over, extremely respectful, with the intention of listening to orders.

"Your Majesty has been okay for the past two days?" Han Jian asked.

Hui'er nodded first, then hesitated. Shook his head.

"I've worked hard for you." Han Jian said casually.

Hui'er was obviously a little flattered, and the whole person was a little cramped and uneasy, not knowing how to respond. Even if she has a very high status in the palace now, she is just a little palace maid after all, and she still doesn't understand many things, and for Han Jian and Yang Rui. She's just a subordinate, and she can't complain even if she kills her. Now Han Jian came back to thank her, which made her feel uneasy.

Han Jian no longer spoke, but looked sideways in the direction of Yang Rui's bedroom, and after half an hour, Yang Xi walked out of the palace door while wiping his tears. Seeing Han Jian, Yang Xi felt a little guilty, and came over to Han Jian step by step. At this time, Han Jian had already stood up to greet him.

"How?" Han Jian waved his hand as he spoke, and Hui'er immediately went in to serve. In this way, Han Jian can also talk to Yang Xi alone.

"Sister...... She couldn't speak, but my sister loved me, and I could see it. Yang Xi said, a little sad.

"Now that I'm back, it's better than anything else, recuperate for a few days, and help your sister take care of the government and help her share her worries in the future, which is the best way to repay her." Han Jian said.

Yang Xi nodded, but looked at Han Jian gratefully and said, "Brother Han, thank you...... Get me back. The matter between you and my sister, my sister has already sued me. ”

"Your sister sued you?" Han Jian is a little strange, it stands to reason that Yang Rui can't speak now, it's good to see Yang Xi can say a few words, and he will be honest about the matter between the two?

Yang Xi said: "My sister said that she was pregnant with your flesh and blood." Then I can't call you Brother Han in the future, it's time to call you brother-in-law. ”

Even if Han Jian was prepared, he was still a little unaccustomed to hearing this title. No one has ever called him brother-in-law, this title makes him feel weird, Yang Xi used to be his friend, but now he has suddenly become a brother-in-law.

"It doesn't matter what you call it." Han Jian said, "It's just in public, it's better not to call it that." ”

Yang Xi nodded again and said, "I understand." ”

As he spoke, Han Jian found that Yang Xi's beard was particularly eye-catching, and a young man in his prime was actually tortured like this, and Han Jian felt a little guilty in his heart.

"These days, you still live in the old residence in the palace, I'll find someone to help you clean up, and then come to see your sister when you clean up, so that your sister can rest assured." Han Jian said.

"Hmm." Although Yang Xi has experienced the trip to the Southern Dynasty and experienced hardships, he still has no idea in Luoyang, and now he is also considered to be "unfamiliar with life", many things have been very different when he just came back, and the harmonious royal relationship in Luoyang City has disappeared, he can only adapt, and he still needs Han Jian's help.

Han Jian and Yang Xi left the inner garden of the palace together, but they did not take the road of Ye'an Pavilion, walking on the road, Yang Xi would stop from time to time to look at the situation in the palace, after all, it was the place where he had grown up, even if time passed, he still had a sense of familiarity with the flowers and trees in the palace.

Walking outside the gate of a palace, there were already palace maids and eunuchs who greeted them, all of whom had taken care of Yang Xi's daily life.

"Clean up for the prince, if the prince is tired, he might as well rest first, and the food will be brought over soon." Tomorrow we'll catch up. Han Jian said.

That's all that is said and done. Seeing Yang Xi enter the hall, Han Jian left and headed in the direction of Ye'an Pavilion.

When they arrived at the gate of Ye'an Pavilion, the noisy courtyard instantly calmed down, and everyone's eyes fell on Han Jianjian, who had a gloomy face.

"Your Highness." Ning Yuan and Lin Ke were the first to greet them, but they didn't see Gu Weipan, who had just entered the palace.

"Where's Mrs. Gu?" Han Jian asked.

"Mrs. Gu is in poor health. Let's go back and rest first. Ning Yuan said.

Han Jian nodded slightly, would Gu Weipan leave the palace like this? Or was it something that happened here while he was away?

Walking into Ye'an Pavilion, Han Jian then summoned several important ministers of the DPRK and China, including some generals from the Eastern Palace. This was also the last time he would hold such a meeting as a prisoner.

When everyone came in, they all lowered their heads, obviously guessing that there would be such a change in Luoyang next. When the prince returns, the king of the east can have two choices, one is to ignore it and treat it as a puppet. Or simply treat it as transparent, what should the king of the east do or how to do it, the affairs of the court are still from the east palace. And the second type, which they want to see the most, is that the king of the east will give power to the prince, and let the prince come out to take care of the government. But they don't think it's realistic, even if the East King can do this, with Yang Xi's ability now. Obviously, he also lacks experience in managing the government.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I won't say much. This time the prince returned. It's also my luck for Dawei. Han Jian said, "From today onwards, Ning Shangshu will no longer lead the Shangshutai, and Gu Taifu will take the position of the Lingshangtai." ”

"Yes." Ning Yuan didn't have any opinions, after all, Gu Weipan had more qualifications and prestige than him, and even he had to be convinced. He didn't accept it if he changed to someone else.

Now it's not that Han Jian removed him, but asked him to give the more qualified Gu Weipan a hand, and Gu Weipan obviously came out to preside over the overall situation when the prince first returned to the dynasty. When Gu Weipan retreated, wasn't he the leader?

However, suddenly from the main position to the secondary position, there is still a little bad feeling in my heart, I have been practicing for several months, and now I have to start from scratch. What he wants to keep now is the status of those people behind him, at least some key positions, he still wants to hold them in his own hands. After all, Gu Weipan only came alone, without his "team", this is equivalent to a bare-bones commander, and everything still depends on them to complete.

Han added: "As for other personnel, there will be no changes. However, Lin Shilang will be transferred to Shangshutai. ”

Lin Ke was stunned for a moment, and then bowed down to receive the order.

He was also very worried in his heart, he had already sensed that he had angered Han Jian by pretending to be clever before. Now Han Jian transferred him to Shangshutai, but he didn't give him the status of the second assistant, he was just an errand at most. Now his identity is not as good as before, and many of the people who followed him were transferred, and some were dismissed, and now he can be said to be isolated, and when he goes to Shangshutai, he can only be suppressed by Ning Yuan. And before he ran to persuade Gu Weipan not to go out of the mountain, obviously he couldn't rely on Gu Weipan to support him, and now he himself is still worried about the future.

It is expected that Han Jian transferred him to Shangshutai, at most to balance the relationship between Shangshutai, and did not intend to give him special power.

"This king will ask His Majesty to play, with the crown prince as the supervisor of the country, and preside over the management of the government. As for the king, he will concentrate on military affairs. Han Jian looked around at the people present, "If there are any more people who use the relationship between the imperial court and the Eastern Wangfu to make waves, don't blame this king for being ruthless." Don't leave anything to chance! ”

After Han Jian finished speaking coldly, he said, "Everyone, please go back." ”

Several officials hesitated, and only after making sure that they had heard correctly, did they exit the door one by one.

Outside, the eunuch who passed the message had already explained that the hundred officials could leave the palace and return home.

Han Jian didn't leave in a hurry, but sat quietly in the Ye'an Pavilion for a while, and now that Yang Xi is back, he also needs to digest many things by himself to set a position for the future.

The contradiction between him and the people in the court could not be resolved for a while, and it was a contradiction between the two camps. The only good thing now is that Yang Xi has returned, and Yang Xi can be used as a lever for intermediate balance, and Gu Weipan can also play a role in balancing the relationship when he comes back as the first assistant. But this is not a long-term solution.

After all, he didn't understand many things, whether it was better to continue to suppress the people of the imperial court faction, or to temporarily withdraw his troops.

Once Mingjin withdraws his troops, it may be that after the imperial court is strong under the auspices of Yang Xi in the future, he will be the first to deal with himself. In the midst of power, he also understands that this must be guarded against. Let Yang Xi come out to take care of the government, now it can be regarded as his commitment to Yang Rui, and it can be regarded as fulfilling the moral heart of a friend, but there are some things that still need to be considered more after all, don't wait for the future to be eaten, and think that others are just tame sheep.

Coming out of the palace, it was not early, and Yang Xi should have been happy to come back, but Han Jian was also a little unhappy.

Yang Xi is his friend, but politically, he is likely to become his enemy in the future. He really didn't want to get to the point of fratricide, but some things were really so easy to resolve? Now that Yang Rui is pregnant again, whether Yang Rui is at ease to be the wife of his Dongwang Mansion and let Yang Xi be the future emperor, or whether he wants his son to take on the big responsibility, now Han Jian has no bottom in his heart. In the past, Han Jian could support Yang Xi unconditionally, but now that Yang Rui is pregnant, many things are different.

People are still selfish after all, Han Jian is not a saint, and he is not exempt from vulgarity.

Thinking about things, before the group returned to the Dongwang Mansion, Han Jian dismounted directly, but saw Han Song and others waiting at the door.

Han Jian was a little surprised, Han Song's family was still angry with him before, and now that he came out, it means that Han Song's family came for the return of the crown prince Yang Xi, and Han Jian was not angry with his family before, so that the whole family only knew about it after Yang Xi arrived at the palace gate.

"Jian'er, you did a good thing!"

When Han Song saw Han Jian, he directly reprimanded, regardless of the presence of guards and subordinates around him.

"Go inside and talk." Han Jian didn't want to quarrel with Han Song's at the door, after all, Han Jian also had Yang Rui's eyeliner among the people on the side, and the reason why Han Jian ignored it was to give Yang Rui face.

When he arrived in the hall, Han Jian had just untied the big man, and Han Song followed up and continued to shout: "You welcome the prince back?" Are you crazy or crazy? ”

"What does Erniang mean, the prince should die in the Southern Dynasty, we don't care?" Han Jian said.

"What does it matter to you that he doesn't die? Leave him in the Southern Dynasty, at least you can sit back and relax, now that he is back, how will you deal with yourself in the future? Han Song said angrily.

Han Jian said: "Now that the prince has returned to the dynasty, it is much better than not returning to the dynasty." The Southern Dynasty has the prince as a proton, and in the future, the Central Plains will raise troops for the purpose of killing me and supporting the crown prince. At that time, she lost the hearts of the people, and Erniang thought it was beneficial to the East Palace? (To be continued......)
