Because Xiao Zhan was detained, many people couldn't fall asleep this night... 

On the side of the inn, as soon as the Southern Dynasty envoys and officials returned, they began to pack up their things and prepare to leave Luoyang. They thought it through very thoroughly. If the Wei Dynasty court was really ready to make things difficult for them, they would either be driven away or left in shame and always wanted to leave. It would be better to pack up the things and prepare for it first. As for the plan for this mission, they no longer cared about it, and being able to save their lives was the most important thing.

At this time, some people from the secret forces in Luoyang were also very confused. Xiao Zhan entered the palace but was detained by the Wei Dynasty. This would mean that the Wei Dynasty's ancestors detained Xiao Zhan in one step. The political effect brought by the political effect is immeasurable. Some people cannot carry out their tasks.

This includes the Southern Dynasty assassin who was about to assassinate Xiao Zhan.

Han Jian stayed in the palace all night, which was a rare time for him to be alone with Yang Rui. In the second half of the night, Han Jian got up early and dressed to leave the palace. Han Jian knew that this was an extraordinary period, and many people were staring at the Luoyang Palace. If he didn't leave the palace all night, he would still be speculated by others.

"Let's go now? Don't sleep much?" Yang Rui did not get up, but was under the quilt.

Although it was no longer cold winter, it was only spring. When it was still cold, the weather was very cold in the second half of the night. Her health was not very good, so she could only watch Han Jian dress. Hui'er could have served her recently, but Yang Rui was a little wary of Hui'er and did not want the little girl to steal her husband.

"I'll leave if I don't leave." Han Jian finished his clothes and said while wearing boots, "I'll be very busy in the morning. Military affairs, and the Southern Dynasties, will be a bit tricky. Ruier, sleep first. Maybe you won't be idle today."

Yang Rui sighed softly: "Thinking about it now, it's very tiring to have so many things in the court, all the things they have to care about are all about." As if she complained, she said seriously, "Whenever there is news from the Southern Dynasty assassin, I will send someone to inform you. I don't want to be kept in the dark all the time."

"Yes." Han Jian nodded and said, "Then I'll leave the palace first. Let's talk about it when I have something to do."

Now there are still many opportunities to talk between Han Jian and Yang Rui. After all, Yang Rui is still in Luoyang, and Han Jian can enter the palace at any time if he wants to talk.

Yang Rui did not come out to see him off, but asked Huier to lead the way to send Han Jian out of the palace with a lantern. Han Jian was useless and went directly out of Yang Rui's bedroom. The reason why he refused to let Huier see him off was mainly because he had to "visit" Xiao Zhan. When Huier came back and went to gossip, Yang Rui would be too careful in this way.

After leaving the inner garden of the palace, Han Jian went directly to the side hall where Xiao Zhan was temporarily detained. The side hall was originally the residence where Yang Yu and Yang Xi lived in the palace. Now both of them are no longer in Luoyang, and even the palace is empty. If Xiao Zhan had not lived in this day, this place had not been in a long time.

When she arrived, there were many guards patrolling outside. The main reason was that Han Jian had previously told him to protect Xiao Zhan and not to let her have any accidents.

"Young Master, there is still light inside. Will you send someone to communicate first?" A guard came over to ask Han Jian for instructions.

Han Jian smiled and shook his head and said, "No. I believe that Princess Yongdan has not gone to bed at this time. This is our own place, so I don't need to report it."

The guards didn't say anything, leading Han Jian to the gate of the palace. Han Jian had only been to the palace once before and was not very familiar with the surrounding terrain. When he arrived at the gate of the palace, he heard a sound of lamenting sound from inside. Han Jian stopped, but heard Xiao Zhan's voice coming: "Who is outside?"

After all, Xiao Zhan is good at martial arts. Although he is not a martial arts master, he has also practiced some internal skills. However, they are very shallow. When Han Jian walked towards the door, he neither deliberately made the footsteps faint nor closed his breath. It is no wonder that Xiao Zhan noticed his arrival.

"Your Highness, can you come in and speak?" Han Jian asked first when he entered the door.

"It turns out to be the King of the East." Xiao Zhan sighed, "Please come in."

Han Jian then opened the door and got inside.

The one facing the door was not a bedroom, but a small hall, with a curtain between the bedroom inside. This room was once Yang Xi's residence, and the yard was quiet, and Yang Xi liked some flowers and plants, and even the decoration in the house was very elegant. Han Jian used to think that Yang Xi was more like a quiet girl, and even his personality was very similar.

"Your Highness, you are polite."

When he entered the hall, Han Jian saw Xiao Zhan sitting in a chair with a pot of tea next to him, but Han Jian knew that the tea inside must be cold, but he didn't know if Xiao Zhan had drunk it. At this time, Xiao Zhan's mind should not be sleeping at all. The excessive worry in her heart made her feel that the night was long and she didn't know what to do.

"Your Majesty, please sit down." Xiao Zhan gestured to the chair politely, but seemed to remember it and said, "I forgot that this is the Northern Dynasty Palace, which made the East laugh."

Han Jian smiled indeed and said, "What did the princess say? Since the princess is temporarily staying here, the princess can also think that this place is home, and the guest will follow the host. If the princess thinks it is inconvenient to speak here, it will be the same if she says it in another place."

Xiao Zhan shook his head slightly and said, "No need, the King of Dong said it just right. But did the King of Dong get the assassin who was about to assassin me?"

Han Jian shook his head slightly and said, "There is no news for the time being."

Speaking of this, Han Jian could clearly feel Xiao Zhan breathing a sigh of relief.

Han Jian suddenly realized in his heart that Xiao Zhan was unwilling to betray his relatives. She had originally had some expectations for Zhu Tongjing, and felt that Zhu Tongjing would probably consider it from her position. But Xiao Zhan was not a stupid person after all. When she was appointed as a national envoy to serve as a mission to the Wei Dynasty, she felt that she would be exiled to a place far away from the political core of the court. Zhu Tongjing's acquiescence was the basis for all parties to reach an agreement. Zhu Tongjing's no longer trustworthy to her.

"Then the King of the East is here, but there is something else to say?" Xiao Zhan said, "I am very tired too. If the King of the East has nothing to do, I want to go to bed. After all, there are still many things to do tomorrow."

Han Jian smiled and said, "Does the princess feel like she is here because she is fine?"

Xiao Zhan was silent for a moment. She knew very well that Han Jian would go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble, but she felt that she had nothing to say to Han Jian. She was originally from the two countries and had no common points of political interests, so it would be useless to say anything.

Han Jian continued: "Does the princess feel like she is betrayed by everyone?"

Xiao Zhan smiled helplessly, and his expression had betrayed her heart. In fact, when Han Jian pointed out the name of the assassin, Xiao Zhan probably knew that Zhu Tongjing had really betrayed her this time, but she still had some hope, thinking that it might be the King of Dong who was sowing discord, although she herself began to disbelief. Because she couldn't help but disbelieve some things.

Han Jian said: "The Southern Dynasties were in civil turmoil that day, and Xie Dang planned to usurp the throne. The princess turned the tide for the empress dowager. I still remember that the princess acted decisively and was a general. Unfortunately, she was just a woman after all."

The last sentence also pointed to Xiao Zhan's sadness.

Indeed, because she was a woman, even if she had talent, the throne was not passed to her when her father passed away. Everything was just because she was a woman, but she asked herself that some things might not be worse than a man.

Han Jian said again: "What are the plans for the princess to go back this time?"

Xiao Zhan was already silent, but when he heard this, he looked up at Han Jian and said, "Will the East King let me go back?"

"The princess is a joke. Although the Southern Dynasty seized the prince of our dynasty, this was not done by the princess after all. There are injustices and debts, and there are people with clear grudges. They will not take their anger on the princess. As for what I said in the palace before, please don't be surprised." Han Jian apologized with grace.

Han Jian's words made Xiao Zhan appreciate a little.

If a man is always dedicated to a woman from beginning to end, she will look down on him because all men will do this. On the contrary, a man will do evil first and then admit it generously, which will show that he has a demeanor.

"The King of Dong is right. Master Zhu's relationship with my mother was unclear. This kind of thing has been circulated among the people for a long time. Although many people are unwilling to believe it, what can I say?" Xiao Zhan smiled helplessly.

Han Jianxin said that Xiao Zhan was very open-minded, and even the relationship between her mother and Zhu Tongjing was not shy away from it. How courage could she say it. However, this also shows that Xiao Zhan was extremely disappointed with these two people, so he said this. Zhu Tongjing was a "villain" who gradually climbed to a high position by relying on nepotism and private relationship with her mother. It seemed that she could feel better when she said this.

Han Jian did not continue to gloat. This was Xiao Zhan's family matter. Even if Xiao Zhan brought it up, it was not convenient for him to add fuel to the fire. After all, Empress Dowager He was also Xiao Zhan's mother, breaking the bones and connecting the tendons.

Han Jian said: "The princess hasn't answered the previous question yet."

"The King of Dong asked me what I would do when I went back, what else could I do? Now my mother has no longer cared about me. I am afraid no one in the court will care about my thoughts anymore. Even Master Zhu now regards me as a burden. Instead, it is better to stay in Luoyang. What does the King of Dong think?" Xiao Zhan finally looked at Han Jian and said.

Han Jian shook his head and said, "The princess doesn't have to do this. In fact... the princess should have thought that there are still many people who are looking for the princess in the Southern Dynasty."

Xiao Zhan just thought it was Han Jian who comforted him, smiled and said nothing.

Han Jian took out a letter from his arms and said, "There is a letter here. Please see it at a glance. In fact, I know that someone is going to assassinate the princess because of this letter."

As she said that, Han Jian handed over the letter. Xiao Zhan didn't take it seriously. There were many people from the Southern Dynasties who had done a detailed work by the Northern Dynasties. It was not surprising that she wanted to investigate what happened to report to the Eastern King. But when she saw the content of the letter, she no longer thought so. The letter was sent from the Southern Dynasties, and the name was written by the King Hui. The literal meaning was a bit obscure, and it should be a taboo thing. After all, there was still a gap between the two dynasties, and King Hui did not want to publicize any connection with the Northern Dynasties.

In the letter, some things about the assassin were mentioned, which also included the meaning of protecting Xiao Zhan. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
