Han Song was silent for a moment and said, "Jian'er, Your Majesty left Jiangdu to not have any disputes with you. If you ask your Sanniang and I to agree to your conditions, you must also agree to us. After Your Majesty returns to the court, if you don't make things difficult for you, you will not have any usurpation!"

Han Jian thought, this was too one-sided. How could it be considered an "user-investment"? Is it also considered an usurpation if it is too late to pay the Queen's honor?

"Er Niang said whatever she said." Although Han Jian had some doubts in his heart, he still nodded.

What he wants now is that Han Song and others can stand on his side on big issues, rather than on the side of the queen.

"Then you tell Your Majesty quickly what he is doing, and I will go find your Sanniang and I..."

Han Jian told Han Song and Han Cui about the location of the empress. The news was obtained from Mrs. Luo and was transmitted from Daxi Liu. As for the authenticity of the news, Han Jian was not very sure, but he also felt that it was very true.

After leaving the barracks, the queen did not travel around the world, but just walked around some famous scenic spots around Jiangdu, as if she was relaxing, and it seemed that she was completing the things many girls wanted to do when she was a girl.

Because the Queen's itinerary for this time was not directed, neither the people sent by the Dongwang Mansion nor the secret agents of the imperial court had found the exact news. It took half a year to be considered as the Queen's exact news.

Han Song and Han Cui did not talk nonsense and got up to arrange for the servants to pack up their things. Then they left Jiangdu secretly.

This time, Han Song and Han Cui went out of the city to find the queen, but not many people were brought. Apart from the two carriages, there were only dozens of followers. The followers also left the city in batches, just to cover up their eyes.

As soon as Han Song and Han Cui left, the eastern prince's mansion suddenly became a little deserted.

Although Han Jian has many concubines, the ones in charge are Han Song and Han Cui. Once they leave, he also needs to take care of the affairs of the Eastern Prince's Mansion.

Two days after Han Song and Han Cui left, Han Jian received no news.

At this time, it was half a year before the Queen disappeared, and there were only seven days left before the ten-day period.

Originally, Han Jian said he wanted to go downstairs to inspect, but in the end he did not make it happen. Gu Weipan and Lin Ke were already suspicious. But Han Jian refused to leave, which was a "good thing" for them. They didn't even ask why Han Jian changed his mind and stayed in Jiangdu.

The most important matter was to reward merits. The Dongwang Mansion and the court had sent people from the Ministry of War and Rites to the front line to formulate rewards for those who had made military merits. The Dongwang Mansion also allocated a lot of expenses to deal with the rewards of military merits.

After several meetings, the officials of the Dongwang Mansion and the court reached a consensus. This time, Han Jian made the greatest contribution based on military merits. The second was Zhang Xing and Lin Zhan. In the book of quelling the war, Lin Xiaosu also made a contribution. As the "superior commander" of Jiangdu's food and grass dispatch, Lin Xiaosu has done a man's failure in the past few months, and has dispatched the food and grass supplies of the Dongwang Mansion in an orderly manner.

Needless to say, Han Jian's contribution was the King of the East, and the Queen's decree of the Queen, and he was also the lord of Jiangdu. Although he made great contributions to the victory of the Battle of Jiangdu, at most he was rewarded by the title and the title. Lin Ke also expected that Han Jian would go further and be the prince, but obviously Han Jian did not want to "uspionage". So in the court's merit book, Han Jian was only listed as the chief minister, but the reward was directly handed over to the Queen to reward. The people below did not even dare to formulate the merits, let alone rewards.

Zhang Xing and Lin Zhan are more likely to remember the merits of Zhang Xing and Lin Zhan. They were originally just the ranks of generals, equivalent to officers from second ranks. Originally, there were only two veterans in Jiangdu, the imperial generals, and now, for the stability of Jiangdu, they promoted Zhang Xing and Lin Zhan to generals at one time, and divided the troops of Jiangdu into twelve routes, and each of them was responsible for one guard.

As for other meritorious generals, they also promoted each to become the chief generals of these twelve groups of soldiers.

After such a subdivision, the Jiangdu military and horse system has also tended to be improved, and the original local military and political complexity and chaos were eradicated at once.

Originally, some people in the court proposed to grant titles to generals with more military merits, but Han Jian would not have been eliminated. Han Jian believed that the most important thing at the moment was to rest in order to restore Luoyang. As for the matter of being a marquis and a general, the empress would give the honor at the discretion of the empress after it was restored.

After the war, it is easy for people with military achievements to distinguish between the merits and the size of their achievements. There are precedents to follow in the wars of all dynasties. Only Lin Xiaosu is the alternative.

Lin Xiaosu was responsible for dispatching food and grass, and made great achievements in this war, which is obvious to all. But the problem is that she is a woman.

If she is a man, it is easy to remember her merits. She is not a military general, but she can directly enter the court ranks and even serve as an official in the Ministry of Revenue or even the three provinces. But she is a woman, and there is no precedent for a woman to serve as a court official in the court, so even if everyone understands her merits, she cannot write it.

For Lin Xiaosu's contribution, the court even held a meeting to study it, but there was no result.

All the ministers of the court abide by ethics and believed that no matter how great a woman made, she would not be able to join the court.

Originally, Han Jian was not prepared to let Lin Xiaosu go to the court to intrigue with some mature and treacherous ministers. Soon, Han Jian himself drafted a "reward" for Lin Xiaosu.

According to Han Jian's statement to the people of the court, Lin Xiaosu was from the Dongwang Mansion, so what was her contribution? The Dongwang Mansion would be rewarded by the Dongwang Mansion. In addition to affirming her achievements, Han Jian also confirmed her identity as the steward of the Dongwang Mansion in front of others. The rewards given to Lin Xiaosu were all material rewards, including land and silver salary.

These were a bit unreasonable to the court officials, but Han Jian knew that Lin Xiaosu had no intention of becoming a court official at all, but he was interested in silver and land.

After Lin Xiaosu's military merits were drafted, there was a consensus on the merits and rewards after this war. The rest was to put the rewards into practice.

In order for Jiangdu to enter and recover as soon as possible, some garrison troops on the front line were transferred south one after another, and then they were rewarded and then disbanded and returned to their hometown. During this battle, the garrison troops made great contributions. After all, the Eastern Prince's Mansion mainly used the main force to restrain the troops of the Northern Prince's Mansion, and handed over the heavy responsibility of combat to these garrison troops.

After victory, the soldiers of the garrison have experience on the battlefield and can stand on their own when they happen in the future.

...

...

After Han Jian finished drafting his military achievements, he still thought about the Queen. What bothered him the most these days was the whereabouts of the Queen.

He knew very well that after the ten-day deadline, the empress would not show up, and the officials of the court would definitely cause trouble. If he did not suppress it, it would cause chaos in the political situation in Jiangdu. If he suppressed it, the consequences might be even more serious.

The Queen's return is not necessarily a good thing for him, it will mean that he and the Queen will have a power struggle. The Queen left in anger at that time, and this time she came back, she would inevitably pursue such disrespectful things as he proposed.

Han Jian couldn't help feeling irritable. Regardless of whether the queen comes back or not, whether he uses force to suppress him, it will eventually lead to a situation that is unfavorable to him. On the contrary, it is better to be a treacherous minister. Even if he is scolded by the people of the world, so what? His life will not be affected by it.

When he felt that he didn't know how to control it, Fayi and Han Zhao came back in a hurry.

They also learned that the queen had not entered Shu and rushed back to Jiangdu City from Jiangshui for generations after receiving the message from Han Song.

"Jian'er, your second mother and Sanniang have been there for a few days, why is there no news yet?"

In the main hall of the East Prince's Mansion, Han Jian came out to welcome the two "elders". However, in terms of psychological age, these two "elders" are just two little sisters.

"Your Majesty has probably not been found yet." Han Jian said casually.

Han Zhaoshi frowned and said, "Jian'er, why did your master and I use so many people to find him, but there is no news, but you can find out the whereabouts of His Majesty? Or... have you sent someone out too?"

"What does Jiu Niang want to say?" Han Jian asked with a frown.

"Jian'er, you are now growing up and starting a family. You should not hide some things. We are doing it for you," Han Zhaoshi sighed.

Han Jian smiled bitterly and shook his head. Since he started to "grow up", his concubines have already felt that Han Jian seemed young, but he has many "secrets" and many unknown "means".

"Jiu Niang is so worried. Jiu Niang and her master have just returned, so let's take a break... There will be news coming back in the next two days, Er Niang and Sanniang will be heard back." Han Jian said.

Han Zhaoshi shook her head and said, "No need. Your master and I are leaving soon. You will inform us of the news you have received, so we can also find Your Majesty. It is more convenient to find more people."

Han Jian stood up and said, "Jiu Niang is so anxious and left? I just came back, why not take a day or two? You are leaving. If you have any news, you need to send someone to find it. I am afraid it will be inconvenient. Otherwise... the master stays it first, so that you can have some dispatch at any time?"

Han Zhaoshi glanced at Fa Yi. She understood what Han Jian meant. The empress's disappearance is a secret after all. Han Jian wanted to send someone to find her, but she could only send someone who knew the situation. It was not appropriate to send officials or military generals. If she and Fa Yi went again, if the empress had different whereabouts and sent her back, Han Jian could not mobilize people. It would be beneficial to leave an informed helper at this time.

"Okay. Please stay with my junior sister." Han Zhao said to Fa Yi.

Fa Yi nodded slightly and glanced at Han Jian again. She could feel that Han Jian's purpose of leaving her was not simple. Obviously, Han Zhaoshi didn't think much about it now.

Han Jian immediately informed Han Zhao of the whereabouts of the queen he knew, and Han Zhao immediately left in vain.

Han Jian personally sent Han Zhao out, and saw Han Zhao away. After taking another look at Fa Yi, Han Jian couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Fa Yi has been like a day, and he still looks like he is out of the world and is not as good as the world's fireworks. However, this is also the person he was concerned about at the beginning. In those years of Fa Yi's absence, he was always worried about it. But he also knew that Fa Yi's heart was not about staying with him forever, but he just regarded him as a child.

"master……"

"Go inside and talk." Fa Yi's voice sank slightly, and he turned around and walked towards the Eastern Palace.

Han Jian followed behind and returned to the main hall. A maid was packing the tea set. Han Jian waved his hand and left the maid and sat down with Fa Yi.

"Master has worked hard these months, so you might as well go to the inner courtyard to rest first. Jianer has had two weddings and has not had time to toast you for the master." Han Jian said.

"I won't drink." Fa Yi replied coldly.

Han Jian said: "That is the right thing to do toast a cup of tea. Thank you for your teachings over the years..."

Fa Yi looked at Han Jian with a cold look and said, "What did you talk to His Majesty on the day of His Majesty's departure?"

Han Jian was stunned. He didn't expect that Fa Yi was still struggling with this problem. Now the Queen has not shown up, and only he and the Queen know about his proposal that day. If he doesn't say it, no one will know about it for the time being.

"Why did the master ask this again? My Majesty and I haven't had a deep conversation..."

Fa Yi sighed and said, "Don't think I don't know what you did in Your Majesty's bedroom a few days ago."

Han Jian smiled bitterly, "Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles away." Originally, he was a moment of depression and impulse that day, but now thinking about it, he just regarded the woman as the queen's substitute.

"Master...how did you know?" Han Jian asked.

"Your Jiu Niang and I came back and went to the palace of Your Majesty... Jianer, you have already started a family and established a house, so many things should be clear. Although you are the King of the East, you cannot act arbitrarily. Fame and integrity are related to a woman's fate. You are so chaotic, but you don't even care about the principles of basically dealing with people?"

Han Jian was taught a lesson by Fa Yi and did not speak.

After all, Fa Yi was his master. Although he did not follow Fa Yi in terms of knowledge, Fa Yi was his teacher in swordsmanship and martial arts. As a master, he could accept a few words of lessons. The key is that he always "coves" the Dharma, and this kind of thing also came to teach him a lesson. He always felt uncomfortable.

Han Jian suddenly said, "That master...has he thought about marrying me?"

"What did you say?" Fa Yi's face turned ugly immediately.

Han Jian sighed and said, "Master, do you still remember what your disciple said when you left Jiangdu? At that time, the master must have thought that his disciple was just young and ignorant, and he would soon forget what he said. But the master also knows that you have been away for so many years, and the disciple has been worried all the time. In my heart, I have long hoped to be with the master forever, but unfortunately... the master did not only have a relationship with me..."

"You..." Fa Yi stood up in anger and said, "Do you know what you are talking about? You have such a delusion in your heart, how ruthless it is?"

Han Jian stood up, and stood in front of Fa Yi less than three feet away.

"What's wrong with a man who has not married a woman? Is it wrong for a disciple to think so? Is the ancestor of Shangqing telling future generations that he will violate the laws of nature of heaven and earth and even ignore the relationship between men and women? The master just curses. No matter how the master scolds, he cannot change what I think in my heart. The master can stop the love between men and women in his heart, but cannot stop me from having unreasonable thoughts about the master..."

Fa Yi looked angry and suddenly hit Han Jian in the chest with a sword sheath. Although it seemed very light, it was mixed with internal force. Han Jian immediately felt that his chest was hit by a big stone.

However, Fa Yi finally showed mercy and left the main hall with anger and went to the side room.

Han Jian looked at the direction of the door, sighed, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He said these words to the master who had been admiring for a long time, and even when he saw Fa, he felt so angry. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
