The storm was about to come and the wind filled the building. Han Jianli was watching the bells and drums below on the Luoyang City Tower, as well as the stable and meticulous life of the people in the city, and his mood was a little sad. ↑

The Central Plains have been peaceful for a long time, and even the Wei Dynasty has not experienced much suffering of war, but now it is constantly storm. Perhaps in the near future, Luoyang will still fall into war, and may even disappear due to a war.

"Young Master, it's time to go back. The envoy who negotiated peace in the Northern Prince's Mansion has arrived at the Ministry of Rites and can be seen at any time." The guards respectfully reported after Han Jian's exercising.

"Um."

Han Jian did not stand on the city tower for too long. Now that he chose to negotiate peace, he gave up the opportunity to pacify the Northern Prince's Mansion. Yang Rui would blame him, and perhaps the people of the world would hate him in the future, but Li Shi of this era would not blame him because he was considering the welfare of the entire Central Plains people.

When he returned to the military office, many officials from the Ministry of Rites had come in advance. Before meeting with the Northern Prince's House peacekeeping envoy, the people from the Ministry of Rites of the Court came to ask Han Jian for advice. Yang Rui had ordered that all the peacekeeping matters be handed over to Han Jian for disposal, and Han Jian could be fully responsible.

"Your Highness the Eastern King, this is the agenda, please check it out."

Officials of the Ministry of Rites submitted the copy of the peace agreement. Han Jian just looked around roughly and there were a lot of content listed above. However, most of them were the conditions for the Northern Palace. People in the court knew how to change their minds. The peace agreement made by the Northern Palace was also regarded as an alliance under the city, and it seemed unreasonable not to take advantage of the situation.

Han Jian didn't know who gave these people the confidence. Without any explanation in the court, he arbitrarily listed the conditions for peace talks. Han Jian thought that it was either Yang Rui's instructed or Lin Ke. Among the conditions, many conditions that were unacceptable to the Northern Prince's Mansion. For example, if Xiao Beiwang wants to come to Luoyang to "palace of war", these are just "talking about war on paper", which is simply a nonsense. With Yang Rui's insight and talent, he would not propose such stupid conditions for peace talks.

"I won't read it if I take it down." Han Jian handed the agenda copy back to the officials of the Ministry of Rites and said, "Envoys from the Northern King's Palace. Unlike the Southern Dynasties, many things cannot be rushed. However, the war in the north is still approaching, so I have to send someone to inform the inn. After noon, I will go to the Ministry of Rites personally to discuss peace affairs, and the king will preside over the presidency."

After Han Jian said this, the people from the Ministry of Rites were a little embarrassed. They originally thought that as long as Han Jian did not intervene, they would leave the conditions to them. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Northern Palace will not be able to recover from now on?

But Han Jian knew that the Northern Palace still had its foundation now, but he only arranged the strategy as defense, which meant to show weakness, but it was not that it looked so vulnerable. After all, there were many elite soldiers and generals under the Northern Palace, and with many years of food and grass reserves, it would be richer than the Eastern Palace. He raised troops for a thousand days and used troops for a while. The Northern Palace had been accumulating troops for a long time, and this battle with the Xianbei was not unprepared. Now, the Luoyang court offered some inappropriate conditions, which would only make the Northern Palace more determined to fight on both sides. Beichuan was occupied by the Xianbei people and had no benefit to the court at all.

Just as Han Jian was preparing to return to the Eastern Palace to prepare for peace talks at noon, at this time, a small eunuch from the palace came to pass the message and asked Han Jian to enter the palace.

"If I can't go back and report to Your Majesty, I will not leave immediately. I may have to deal with some military affairs. If I can't pass it on."

Originally, the emperor summoned him, and Han Jian, as a minister, had to rush to the palace without stopping. But now Han Jian is different. As a state supervisor, he has "appropriate" reasons to refuse, so he naturally has to prepare to enter the palace again.

It’s not that Yang Rui didn’t know his situation, and he didn’t want to give up the great opportunity to negotiate peace with the Northern Palace, but some things are not allowed to do whatever they want. A war in the Central Plains will also have a long-term impact on the prosperous civilization. Xiaofu Ze’s mindset is unsatisfactory.

Han Jian roughly arranged the military affairs, mainly the defense around Luoyang. This time, Su Tingxia brought the soldiers from the north, and there were only more than 10,000 less than 20,000 people when he went there. When he came back, he might have more than 100,000 people. With such a large team, how to support him after he arrived in Luoyang is also a problem. Han Jian simply did not want Su Tingxia to come back so easily. It would be better to keep him in the north and continue to be responsible for leading the troops. However, the target this time was not Beichuan City, the Beiwang Mansion, but the Xianbei people.

However, in terms of the result, it is still the same. Even if you pacify the Northern Prince's Mansion, you must drive away the invasion of the Xianbei people. This is a great test for Su Tingxia.

When he arrived at the palace, Han Jian went straight to Ye'an Pavilion. Yang Rui sat upright behind the desk, looking in a bad mood and a little disappointed.

For several days, Han Jian has been busy arranging peace talks, which has alienated her and made her a little bored.

"Why did the King of Eastern came so late? But the people I sent did not convey the message?" Yang Rui looked at Han Jian coldly, as if he was a little resentful, but in fact he was also bringing out a woman's unique temper.

Han Jian knew that it was not a question of being rational or unreasonable at this time. As an emperor, Yang Rui had the right to question him like this. But as his woman, it was a bit of a problem to speak like this.

"Return to Your Majesty, I have made arrangements for military affairs before coming to see Your Majesty. It is not intentional to delay." Han Jian said respectfully.

"That's it." Yang Rui glanced at the door and said to the little eunuch standing at the door, "Go out. Close the door, I don't want anyone to disturb you."

The little eunuch took the order to go out and closed the door. Yang Rui got up, but just sighed and sat down again. He looked at Han Jian with resentment, and Yang Rui said, "If you don't send someone to inform your husband, have you forgotten your husband?"

"I dare not." Han Jian said solemnly.

"Your second wife came to the palace again. This time she agreed to marry your master. But there are also words that should not be made public. Everything must be followed by rules and regulations. Although your master is your elder, after entering the door of the Eastern Prince's Mansion, he is a concubine. The concubine cannot enter the mansion through the main gate. This is also a rule. You must understand that your second wife is not intentionally making things difficult for you." Yang Rui said.

Han Jian realized that Yang Rui was deliberately avoiding the peace talks. Because in Yang Rui's heart, he could never accept the peace talks. She felt that she should use force to completely solve the problems of the Northern Prince's Mansion, not to have a negotiating table.

When talking about Fa Yi, Yang Rui looked helpless. Although the things Han Song asked her to report to her were reasonable, the biggest problem was that Yang Rui's identity in the East Prince's Mansion. After all, between her and Han Jian, she could not be so nameless forever. But just like Fa Yi, she would probably not be able to be a real wife when she entered the East Prince's Mansion in the future.

Although she also knew that she could use the authority of her emperor to change all this, she also knew that this authority would usually lead some things to extremes. What the power of the monarch cannot change is the social laws formed over thousands of years.

"Your Majesty has to worry about my affairs with the master," said Han Jian.

"It seems that you still have a thorn in your heart when you say such words. But it's nothing. Your master is a simple and unconcerned person. He can walk with a freak like you, and it's a bit unreliable to say." Yang Rui said, but asked again, "When are you going to marry your master?"

"As soon as possible, there will be changes. I don't want things to continue to delay." Han Jian said, "Your Majesty will give you time to get married."

When an emperor gives a marriage, he always needs to explain the time, place and person. Needless to say, the time is actually decided by Yang Rui. As a "matchmaker", Yang Rui also seems to be Fa Yi's family, although her family is famous and untrue, because she herself is also trapped in it.

"It's the second day of next month. There are still seven or eight days left, enough for you to prepare." Yang Rui said calmly, "But you must also understand your master's mood. Maybe she will encounter some pressure recently, so you should go and spend more time with her."

"Um."

Han Jian nodded, feeling that Yang Rui seemed to be very considerate, but he was also doubting Yang Rui's intention. Will Yang Rui really tell him this without any worries and be jealous?

"But if you have time, you can go to the palace to accompany me more." Yang Rui added at last.

Han Jian smiled faintly and nodded in agreement.

Yang Rui seemed very happy, and then he talked about the serious matter, that is, some details of the peace talks with the Northern Palace.

"...I originally disagree with the Northern Prince's Mansion. However, if you insist, I know that you are not for your own selfish interests, so I agree with you. But I have some words first. No matter when, you cannot betray the royal family of the Wei Dynasty. This is my explanation to the ancestors and ancestors."

Yang Rui said seriously.

Han Jian knew the contradictions and entanglements in Yang Rui's heart. Yang Rui has now become his woman, but in terms of identity, he is also the ruler of the Yang royal family. What Yang Rui is most afraid of is actually his usurpation of the throne, which makes Yang Rui very conflicted. On one hand, he is his husband and his family, and he is extroverted, but in this matter, he still prefers the Yang clan more. She doesn't want to be a sinner of the Yang clan.

"Your Majesty is too worried." Han Jian said, "I just want to save the Central Plains from the suffering of war. Everything is based on the interests of the people."

"I don't feel so sad when I say these words of righteousness. Okay, it's good to know that you are sincere." Yang Rui said, "There are a few envoys who came to the Northern Palace this time who have served as officials in Luoyang. Do you know all these people?"

Han Jian shook his head.

"It's fine if you don't know each other. Today I will introduce you to someone and ask her to speak well for you. Don't mind it too much. After all, she has some understanding of people and things in the court, so don't have any bad thoughts."

"Who?" Han Jian asked with a frown.

Yang Rui smiled and said, "I'll know if you wait."

After less than a cup of tea, the little eunuch asked for a visit outside the door, meaning that someone was summoned.

When someone came in, Han Jian stopped his eyes slightly. It turned out to be Princess Anping Yang Xiuxiu. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
