The question of Yang Rui's "whose" obviously did not only ask whether it belongs to the Xianbei or the Wei Dynasty, but also intended to be asking whether it belongs to the Eastern Palace or the imperial court. The implicit meaning is very obvious.

Han Jian could hear it but pretended not to know it, and said in a deep voice: "The Xianbei people may follow the Guanzhong path, but it does not mean that they should be in harmony with them. It would be enough if the Western Prince's Mansion is prepared."

Yang Rui didn't say much, but Han Jian still didn't answer her much about the military and horses. He just mentioned sending 10,000 troops. Ten thousand troops will eventually be a drop in the bucket and will not have much impact on the situation in Jiangbei.

It's the New Year's Eve now. Han Jian was unable to enter the palace to celebrate the festival with her before, but now their relationship has been made public. No matter what, Han Jian has to enter the palace to act like a little. After all, the regular Spring Festival banquets in the palace have been cancelled, and Yang Rui seems a little lonely.

Han Jian is about to leave the palace, Yang Rui said: "Can you enter the palace today?"

Han Song has been preparing for a family banquet in the mansion these days. Yang Rui is naturally not the one invited. Now there is still a clear gap between Yang Rui and Han Song. He cannot break this gap yet.

"It depends on the situation." Han Jian stood up, but he also knew that it would not be a big problem as long as he insisted on entering the palace at night, but he was also afraid that more things would happen during the Spring Festival and could not speak too much.

Yang Rui's expression was a little sad. Although Yang Xi has returned now, it is difficult for her to relieve her in Yang Xi's current state. Now Han Jian is taking care of the Dongwang Mansion and cannot take care of her by her side, which will always make her feel more lonely during the Spring Festival.

Han Jian returned to the mansion, but the family banquet was almost the same. When the whole family gathered to prepare for the banquet, Han Jian had been sorting out some official documents and did not talk about family affairs with the women of the family. In a year, there were many more familiar faces in the mansion. However, they were all newly added women by Han Jian. They had few opportunities to meet on weekdays, and they only came out at some family banquets, and it was difficult to communicate at the dinner table. This time it was a big family banquet, all of which came out of the room and yard. Without Han Jian, the backbone, they were more listening to Han Xu and others talking.

"Jian'er. Why don't you give up your business? Let's spend more time with Xin'er and the others?" Han Song came to the study and saw that Han Jian was still busy with business on his desk, so he couldn't help but remind him.

"The army is still under preparation, so where can I have time?" Han Jian said.

Han Song then sat down and talked with Han Jian seriously about the detailed issues of sending troops.

"Second Mother, it's not that I don't want to explain in detail. Many things have not been implemented yet. In general, you don't have to worry too much. This time, you will never be able to dispatch troops and soldiers from Jiangdu, and there is no need to worry too much about money and food. Just think that this battle is just the smoke released, and it may not be possible to fight." Under Han Song's aggressive questioning, Han Jian could only do it perfunctorily.

"What you said is light and may not be able to fight. What else can you say? Don't you know how many people's hearts are touching in the current battle? This time, there are gentry in Jiangdu offering gifts to the Eastern Prince's Mansion. Some people have sent people to send letters to inquire about the withdrawal of troops in the north. Now it's better. If the troops do not retreat, they will have to fight again. Why do you ask Erniang to explain to the people of Jiangdu?"

Han Jian knew that his mentality was different from Han Song's family. Han Song's family was more inclined to defend the country. He only needed to defend one acre of three parts of the land in the East Prince's Mansion and deliberately. His mind was in the world, not only in Jiangbei, but also in Jiangnan and even in the grassland. The two people had different minds, so it was easy to have disputes when discussing things.

After a family dinner, Han Jian left the East Prince Mansion early after dinner.

First, I met several important generals from the Eastern Prince's Mansion and asked them to tell them about the general situation of sending troops. Han Jian believed that Han Song could probably integrate the fragmented news from these people and know some details of the plan to conquer Guanzhong.

After everything was settled, it was already long since nightfall. Han Jian didn't count the time and went straight to the palace to see Yang Rui. Although he did not fully agree that Yang Rui would enter the palace, Yang Rui was pregnant now and there was no one to take care of him. If he didn't go at this time, he felt a little irresponsible.

When he arrived at the palace, Yang Rui had already returned to the bedroom and asked the eunuch where he found out that Yang Rui had not even prepared a simple family dinner this time, and Yang Rui did not sit down with Yang Xi for a meal.

When she entered the inner garden of the palace, Yang Rui heard the news but came out. Yang Rui's complexion was still good. Influenced by Han Jian's entry into the palace, she felt a little relieved and smiled on her face.

"Didn't you prepare some food?" Han Jian couldn't help asking when he saw that the meals delivered from the imperial kitchen were still the same.

Yang Rui sighed: "The soldiers from the north may not even be able to eat. I, the emperor, can no longer help them. If they eat well, the soldiers will starve."

Han Jianxin said that this trick is not very clever to buy people's hearts. It is for people to know, but now only he and Huier know.

"I've eaten, you'll have a meal earlier." Han Jian sat down and said.

Yang Rui said a little dissatisfied: "When I came into the bedroom, I just watched me eat? Why do you have to move your chopsticks, and you still have to see you?"

Han Jian couldn't, so he had to eat some with Yang Rui. Yang Rui had a good appetite and was in a good mood. He even asked Huier to bring the dishes and transfer some food for Huier to eat. On weekdays, Huier always had to eat in advance. It seemed that she would serve Yang Rui and would not eat with Yang Rui at all. This time, Yang Rui was extremely kind.

"I remember that there were too many people in the palace at that time, and it would be very lively at this time, but now it is deserted. I don't know if the palace will return to its previous situation in the future." After dinner, Yang Rui suddenly sighed again.

Han Jian smiled and said, "If you have a few more children in the future, will the palace become lively?"

Yang Rui, Bai Hanjian, said with a glance: "You think I am as young as Cistan, and I don't want to be as old as I am now. How many people can I add to your Dongwang Mansion? If you have one, I am satisfied, but I am afraid that I will not be able to support you. I hope that Cistanan or your master will come to the palace more often in the future. At least when you are not here, it is more at ease to have a companion to sleep."

Yang Rui said this with some resentment, but he didn't know how sincere she was.

"Who will be summoned to the palace by Your Majesty? Will there be someone else to obstruct?"

Han Jian said, meaning that if you want them to come to the palace, you will be able to make a public message by yourself. Although Han Song has prejudice against her, he never stops this little thing.

"Don't you understand that letting Jimbun and your master enter the palace more often is also to let you enter the palace more often. Otherwise, they will just fall asleep together and dream back at midnight. Although they have a companion, they hug each other and cry."

Han Jian was very awkward to hear this, and he cried in embrace, as if he was dead.

Yang Rui also likes to beat around the bush. He said before that he seemed to be so sincere to find someone to be his companion, but in the end he reminded him to enter the palace more often.

Han Jian doesn't want to bother with her too much. Just follow her wishes first, just like a blank check, it doesn't take much trouble to make a few more promises.

After lunch, I had to go to bed with me. Before I could sleep with my clothes, I heard the bustling outside and the fire was rising in the distance.

"What's wrong? Even if you can't live a peaceful life, can you make trouble for an assassin in the palace?" Yang Rui's clothes were half wide, and her interest outside was ruined. She naturally felt unhappy. She stood by the window and looked at it, but there was a fire from the gate of the front palace. It was not the bedroom.

"It looks quite far, but I don't know what's going on."

Han Jian also looked around and said casually. Logically speaking, the front palace gate was full of guards and was an empty place. Even if the assassin wanted to set fire, he would not choose a place with few people but no value. However, the forbidden area of ​​the palace would not set off firecrackers and fireworks on New Year's Eve, and it is unlikely that the fire would occur accidentally.

Yang Rui said: "Last time the assassin set fire. The mother's queen's bedroom has not been repaired yet. Now this incident has happened again. The guards in this palace should teach them a lesson."

Somehow, she pointed the finger at the guards in the palace again.

Han Jian knew what Yang Rui was thinking that the guards in the palace are now all from the Dongwang Mansion. It was not entirely believed by her. But now there is basically no one in the court. Can the troops in the Dongwang Mansion be temporarily recruiting the palace guards? Those people can believe it even more?

"The following people are responsible for these matters, so let's go to bed earlier." Han Jian said.

Han Jian has had a very average rest these two days and wants to rest early, not to mention that Yang Rui will pester him, and it may take an hour or two before he can fall asleep.

Yang Rui nodded and returned to the bed. The two of them became entangled, but they were just warm, but they heard Huier's hurried footsteps behind the curtains between the inner and outer rooms.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness..." Hui'er's voice seemed very busy.

Yang Rui clenched his fists, and Han Jian wanted to get up and get out of bed, but Yang Rui was entangled.

"This damn girl just likes bad things!" Yang Rui complained. She thought it was not good for Hui'er to listen to the corner outside, so she asked Hui'er to go out to blow the cold wind, but now Hui'er ran in and ruined her good things.

"What's the matter?" Han Jian did not go to the ground, but hugged Yang Rui and asked loudly.

"When you go back to your highness, someone came to report that something happened in the palace...is something big, so let your highness ask." Hui'er's voice was very soft. If Han Jian hadn't had good ears, she wouldn't have heard clearly.

Han Jian was dressed, Yang Rui looked disappointed, but he dressed with Han Jian and roughly tidied up his clothes. Han Jian said, "Rui'er, you rest first, I'll go out and take a look first."

"How can I rest with peace of mind? It's better to go and have a look together, it's easier to worry about it!"

Yang Rui and Han Jian went out the door, but the little eunuch knelt outside to welcome him.

"What the hell is it?" Han Jian asked.

"When you go back to your highness, someone went into the palace to make trouble, a few were killed, and some escaped. The guards in the palace said that your highness must come forward." The little eunuch said in a panic.

Han Jian thought for a while, even if there were assassins in the New Year's Palace, he would not be able to disturb him if he was killed. Besides, how could outsiders know that he was here?

On weekdays, he would go to the bedroom without knowing it. Even if he came to the palace today, the palace guards knew it, but they didn't know whether they were in Ye'an Pavilion or in the bedroom. The little eunuch could find it accurately, which made Han Jian feel like he was being monitored by others when doing things.

"Who asked you to come to find me?" Han Jian asked sternly.

"Go back to Your Highness... it's General Li Gan." The little eunuch replied.

"General Li Shen?"

Han Jian immediately felt something was wrong. Although the guards in the palace were all soldiers from the Eastern Prince's Mansion, the levels of the palace guards were not divided according to the level of generals in the army. The guards were divided by guards and teams, so how could the title of "sergeant general" appear?

This was obviously not aware of the rules in the palace and was talking nonsense. When Han Jian felt that something was wrong, the "little eunuch" suddenly rushed up and actually bumped into Han Jian's body. His hand was shaking brightly.

In the flash, Han Jian could not think too much, so he could only retreat to avoid the attack. Yang Rui also reacted at this time. Her movements were one step faster than Han Jian. When Han Jian retreated to her side, the "little eunuch" rushed over, he kicked the short blade in his hand away. The little eunuch was not stable and was subsequently followed by Han Jian and beaten to the ground with a palm.

"Ah!" Hui'er screamed in surprise.

This immediately alarmed the little eunuchs behind him. Seeing that the situation was wrong, the few who followed him were a little panicked.

When Han Jian was about to subdue the little eunuch, he found that the little eunuch had died, and he must have died of poison in his mouth.

"Damn the villain..."

A bunch of eunuchs knelt on the ground and kowtowed, but Han Jian didn't dare to get too close because he didn't know if there were any thieves' accomplices among them.

"What's going on?" Yang Rui shouted.

"The villain doesn't know..."

The little eunuchs had no idea what was going on, and Han Jian said, "Don't you recognize him?"

"Go back to Your Highness, he...he is the little eunuch of the Eastern Palace. He said he had something to tell His Majesty, so he asked us to come with him..."

Han Jian heard that it was the "East Palace". Although there was no East Palace in the palace, this is what the people in the palace meant by Prince Yang Xi. Is Yang Xi looking for someone to kill him? Han Jian could only smile bitterly. Yang Xi didn't even know who he was. In addition to hiding in the quilt and trembling, could he remember to find someone to kill him? Or was there someone who had been hiding in the palace long ago and was about to wait for an opportunity to attack him?

Originally, someone in the palace was not good for him, so he would definitely think that Yang Rui took action at the first time, but Yang Rui had no hesitation to help him just now, which also means that she was not interested in finding someone to harm him. Yang Rui also knew the depth of his martial arts. It was too difficult for such a little eunuch who seemed to be clumsy in his actions.

"Please carry the person down. Call the rotating captain of Yewenmen over here!" Han Jian shouted.

The little eunuch carried the person away with all his strength. Han Jian turned around, but found that Yang Rui seemed to be feeling a little uncomfortable.

"What? But is there a fetal aura?" Han Jian asked with concern.

Yang Rui nodded reluctantly, but said to Huier: "Help me in and rest." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
