Chapter 858: The Tide Rises
Yang Yu's sudden return made a little wave in the waterhole that calmed Jiangdu, and many things became a little complicated because of Yang Yu's return.
The former prince of Nanwang is now also the uncle of the country, according to Han Jian's previous strategy of promising not to change the nobles of the old dynasty, the king of the south can be hereditary, and in the case of the existence of the prince of the king of the south, the lord of the king of the south can also be passed on for a long time.
Han Jian couldn't ask what kind of experience Yang Yao had in the past few years, and with Yang Yao's hatred of him, it was useless to ask. Han Jian couldn't easily kill the people of the Nanwangfu family, after all, it was Yang Li'er's mother's family, and Yang Luochuan and Yang Yu were also the grandfathers and uncles of his eldest son Han Xi.
After Yang Yu came back, Han Jian did not arrange for him to live back in Nanwangfu, because now Yang Luochuan's family is in Luoyang City, and Yang Yu is temporarily placed in a residence in Jiangdu, and a lot of people are sent to protect, in the name of protection, but in fact, it is also surveillance. But in the end, Yang Yu has a certain amount of personal freedom, and he doesn't need to communicate to Han Jian when he enters and exits, but someone needs to follow.
After seeing Yang Yu, he also asked Fa Ye to send Yang Li'er back to his yard, and Han Jian was finally furious.
Without any warning, there was a sudden incident of chaos in the city, and then even Yang Yu, who had been missing for four years, came out, which was undoubtedly out to stir up the situation. He had completely planned to use troops against the south, and all he wanted to maintain was internal stability within the Wei Dynasty, but now a series of unstable factors appeared, making him feel as if an invisible hand was grabbing him and suffocating him.
"Your Majesty." Han Jian waited for a short time, and Onishi Yanagi, as the head of the intelligence system, appeared in front of Han Jian.
As the absolute leader of Han Jian's spy system, Da Xiliu has traveled a lot in the past few years, and he has just returned from the Southern Dynasty for a few days, and he is about to re-enter the investigation of another big conspiracy, so it can be said that there is not much time to rest.
"What the hell is going on? But I feel that I am a country. You can be plagued by thieves at will, but I can't help them? ”
Han Jian's face was very cold, even gloomy and terrifying, Daxi Liu had been working under Han Jian for many years, and he had never seen Han Jian so angry. Although Han Jian's style of doing things is very urgent, he is very calm and steady in his usual personality. This is also the reason why Han Jian can rise in a short period of time.
Da Xiliu didn't dare to reply, because she didn't know who did the chaos in the city, and even she only heard about Yang Yu's appearance afterwards, and she didn't dare to be sure if the Yang Yu who came back was the prince of Nanwang himself. But after Yang Li'er's confirmed brother, Han Jian naturally didn't think that someone was looking for someone to impostor.
Han Jian was also silent suddenly, the atmosphere was a little stagnant, and after a long time, Han Jian's tone was slightly softened and said, "Send someone to investigate, there must be no mistakes or omissions." ”
Onishiyanagi hurriedly received his order.
For the intelligence system of the Imperial Court and Onishiyanagi. It's almost the only thing that can be done to investigate, but the results of the investigation are to no avail, things are still developing in a bad way, and Yang Yu is also back, the situation is very turbid, if Han Jian suddenly leads the troops out at this time, then there will be a lot of undercurrents surging in the entire court. Han Jian had always felt that he had to maintain stability within the imperial court before he set out on the expedition, but after this incident. Things are no longer so absolute, and Han Jian is likely to be thunderous first. Carry out a purge within the imperial court first, and then set out on the expedition.
Daxi Liu retreated, Han Jian was still in a bad mood, he was all ready last night, he could lead the troops out at any time, and the arrow had to be sent on the string. But now there is such a result. But he didn't expect it, because the rear he relied on the most was in Yuzhou instead of Jiangdu, and if he sent troops in the current situation, Yang Yu's presence would bring great instability to the rear.
Han Jian was also suspicious in his heart. His plan can be said to be perfect, but the only small omission is that he did not perceive the existence of this group of people behind him, or someone behind him had already guessed his marching plan, so that he had already begun to fight back before he sent his troops, which also blocked the plan, and then disrupted his whole plan.
Han Jian left the Dongwang Mansion and met with the main generals stationed in the city in the city, and inquired about the detailed situation in the south of the city, Han Jian was still not at ease in his heart, and even personally took people to the scene to see it. As for the place where Yang Yu was found, it was only a dungeon, it was said that Yang Yu was imprisoned in it, Han Jian even went into the dungeon to see it himself, the dungeon was clearly rebuilt from a temporary cellar, and it was only formed for two or three days at most, that is to say, Yang Yu was only transferred to the city in the past few days, and he could pass the supervision of the city defense and the intelligence system in the city, which is very strange in itself.
Having personally inspected the places where the main battles were fought with the rebellious parties, Han Jian did not return to the Dongwang Mansion, but went to meet Mrs. Luo and Li Yun.
At present, although Mrs. Luo and Li Yun no longer interfere too much in the affairs of the old department of Xiliang, they are still secretly investigating intelligence for Han Jian, and their connections are mainly reflected in the social system of the lower ninth rate, and it can be said that they can get some information that the orthodox intelligence system cannot get.
In order to be able to perform well in front of Han Jian, the king, Mrs. Luo and Li Yun can't help but do their best, but no matter how hard they try, their status is still inferior to Da Xiliu, who is also from the old department of Xiliang, and they themselves know this very well. But Han Jian didn't say that he would hide the bow directly, after fighting the first battle of Xianbei, Han Jian also gave some fields in Xiliang to the two of them to comfort them in doing things for the court, and Han Jian also promised that the land of Xiliang would be canonized in the end, and it was likely that one of the two of her would be chosen to be the king of Xiliang, but the premise was that it must be after the world was pacified.
This time, Mrs. Luo and Li Yun came to Jiangdu at the same time, and they were investigating intelligence for the imperial court behind their backs, but perhaps because of their limited manpower and material resources, they have not received too useful information so far, and even sent them to the Southern Dynasties, many of them have also been captured, and Han Jian has also reprimanded them for this.
“…… Your Majesty, the chaos in the city is supposed to be done by the people of the Southern Dynasties. I heard that the emperor of the Southern Dynasty had recruited hundreds of dead soldiers to Jiangdu, saying that it was to be disadvantageous to His Majesty. Li Yun seemed to know something, and after meeting Han Jian, she began to state her opinion.
Mrs. Luo next to her said with a little disdain: "But the people who made trouble this time did not commit murder against the Dongwang Mansion, and most of them have northern accents." How can this be explained? ”
Li Yun sneered: "What if it's a northerner? This is clearly a trick of the people of the Southern Dynasties, and many of the dead soldiers they have collected were also exiles from the Northern Dynasties, and there are some talented people in the rivers and lakes. ”
Mrs. Luo replied: "But it seems that there are rumors outside the world that the matter started from within the imperial court, and the initiator was not from the Southern Dynasty. It is a traitor and lackey of the court. ”
The two quarreled endlessly, Han Jian stood next to them with his back to them and listened, the two women seemed to be willing to press each other down. But with the theory that they can't form a systematic logic at all, it is too difficult to convince the other party, and they have not investigated clearly, just some "maybe", "probably" and "heard", even Han Jian felt a little absurd and ridiculous when he heard it.
Han Jian felt that the person behind the manipulation was unlikely to be the Southern Dynasty or the Northern Dynasty, but it seemed to be a bigger conspiracy.
When Mrs. Luo and Li Yun were arguing. Han Jian seemed to suddenly have a clue, what he was most worried about in his heart was probably what someone did behind it. Nowadays, the pattern of the Southern and Northern Dynasties that seems to be clear at a glance is actually a lot of undercurrents surging behind the scenes, and some forces hidden behind them want to take advantage of the war between the two dynasties to fish in troubled waters and implement their plans.
Among these people, Han Jian was naturally most worried about his biological father Han Qi, including Prince Yan Ning's old department. This was a force to be reckoned with in the Northern Dynasty, and even the previously missing Zuogu Shangren was inextricably linked with these people. It was precisely the Venerable Zuogu who kidnapped Yang Yu, and the Venerable Zuogu disappeared because she proposed to exchange Yang Yu for Yang Qingle, and then the Venerable Zuogu seemed to disappear without a trace overnight.
"Enough!"
Just when Mrs. Luo and Li Yun were red-faced and red-eared to each other, Han Jian's sudden words made the two of them suddenly fall silent.
Han Jian turned around, looked at the two of them coldly and asked, "I'll ask you." Is there anyone of unknown origin who wants to make private contact with you and promise you a good reward? ”
Mrs. Luo was the first to react, and quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty Mingjian, the concubines are dedicated to His Majesty's court. Never dare to go against His Majesty's will to have dealings with traitors. ”
Li Yun is from Xiliang in the end, and she is a little younger, so she is still slightly inferior in the reaction to this kind of thing. But she also quickly knelt down and kowtowed, saying that she had not had any contact with people of unknown origin.
Han Jian said coldly: "Then I would like to remind you, if there is really such a person looking for you, first make a false accusation with him, not only will I not punish you, but I will also be rewarded." ”
Han Jian expected that if it was really Prince Yan Ning's old ministry who wanted to wait for an opportunity to steal the authority of the Wei Dynasty, he would need to find an internal response in the imperial court, and this kind of internal response would inevitably be a person who was unwilling in the court, and Ning Yuan had been bought by him, but with the stabilization of Ning Yuan's power in the imperial court, Ning Yuan himself jumped out, and those people, including Gongsun Shu, who had been reused by Han Jian, might also attract people who might be bought in the court.
What does Han Jian think, this Mrs. Luo and Li Yun, as people from the old ministry system of Xiliang, are now unwilling in the imperial court, and they are the easiest people to buy and win over, and it is impossible for those people to say that they will not start.
After letting Mrs. Luo and Li Yun retreat, Han Jian deployed some people to keep an eye on the two of them, so as to always investigate what the two of them did, if they really had something to hide, Han Jian would know better.
After arranging everything, Han Jian returned to the Dongwang Mansion, and he was a little tired after running for nearly a day, especially when he didn't rest well last night.
Han Jian just leaned on the back of the chair and wanted to close his eyes to recuperate, at this time, Yang Li'er came out with ginseng tea, and her eyes were full of Chu Chu and wanted to give Han Jian tea.
"Li'er, is that you?" Han Jian showed an indifferent smile on his face, although he was very wary of the people in Nanwangfu, but he did not have any vigilance against Yang Li'er, this was a very complicated feeling, on one side was a political opponent, and on the other side was a lover who was with his closest relatives for the rest of his life, and he didn't want to be entangled like this in his own heart.
Yang Li'er walked to Han Jian's side and handed over the ginseng tea, but Han Jian took it but put it down, and sighed: "The weather is also a little hot, I just walked outside and sweated, drinking this thing will make me angry." ”
Yang Li'er was a little ashamed and lowered her head and said, "It's that the concubine is not thoughtful." ”
"Whatever you say, you bring tea, this is your heart, I will drink it no matter what." Han Jian didn't want Yang Li'er to have any grievances, so he picked up the ginseng tea on the table and drank it all, but Yang Li'er didn't stop it if she wanted to.
Yang Li'er looked at Han Jian and said, "Since you don't want to drink it, why bother?" ”
"Because this is the tea you prepared for me, if I don't drink it, wouldn't it be incomprehensible?" Han Jian smiled and took Yang Li'er over, after all, it was in public, Yang Li'er wanted to struggle away, but it was only symbolic, and finally she was soft in Han Jian's arms.
The warmth of the half-hour is silent, but it seems to be the emotion of each other. After that, Yang Li'er raised her head, looked at Han Jian with Chu Chu, and asked, "Big brother, will his sudden return affect the stability of the imperial court?" ”
Han Jian smiled: "Why do you think so? Your eldest brother is also the uncle of the country, his return can help stabilize Chaogang, and in the future, your father's throne of the king of the south will also be passed back to him, I once told you, even if Yuzhou is now returned to the imperial court, but the jue of the south palace will always be passed on. ”
Yang Li'er smiled and said, "Don't comfort the concubine, in fact, the concubine doesn't understand anything." Now when Xianggong is about to lead the troops to the battle, what he hopes most is stability in the court, and the people's desire is to fight for this war, but now that the eldest brother has suddenly returned, the concubine knows that he must have hidden things behind his back, but thinking of the suffering he has suffered in the past few years, he can't bear to ask. ”
Han Jian looked at Yang Li'er's tangled expression, and felt pity in his heart. In fact, Yang Li'er is not as distracted as Gu Xin'er, Yang Li'er was once the second lady of Nanwangfu, she learned to lead troops to fight since she was thirteen or fourteen years old, in terms of political acumen, she is even a little girl Zhuge , and it was only after marrying into Dongwangfu that she learned to slowly become like a little woman who only knows how to do boudoir affairs.
Han Jian sighed: "Qi'er, I don't want to hide some things from you. Do you think I need to tell you some lies? If your eldest brother comes back, if it doesn't endanger the imperial court, it's too late for me to welcome it, after your eldest brother's accident, I have been sending people to look for him, and I almost rescued him more than a year ago. But there are some things, after all, they can't be explained by family affection, just like the resentment hidden in your eldest brother's heart, or he is blaming me for taking away the foundation of your Nanwang Mansion, and maybe even the account of his abduction will be counted on my head.
