Chapter 449: Uncle Mother

Yang Hui mentioned the old grievances to the empress, and he was a little excited. Han Jian thought to himself, this old guy first devoted himself to the Northern Palace, then to the imperial court, and then to the Western Palace, although they are all surnamed Yang, but they are also out-and-out slaves with the three surnames, how can such a person get respect?

Han Jian didn't want to disturb the empress and her "old friend" to catch up, so he left the camp. At this time, Lin Ke's figure was hanging outside the empress's bed.

"Lin Shangshu and here?" Han Jian glanced at Lin Ke and asked in an indifferent tone.

When Lin Ke saw Han Jian, he hurriedly asked for peace and said, "The lower official heard that His Majesty summoned Yang Hui, and came over to find out. ”

Han Jian nodded knowingly and asked, "Does Lin Shangshu recognize this Yang Hui?" ”

"I know it. How could you not recognize the ministers of the same temple before? Only later...... Alas, don't mention it. Lin Ke wanted to speak and stopped, as if he was very emotional.

Han Jian smiled: "Lin Shangshu also needs to hide in front of this king?" What words should not be said to this king? ”

"Dongwang doesn't know the allusion, this Yang Hui, speaking of which...... He was also a minister of His Majesty. At the beginning, he followed Emperor Shaozong to conquer Xianbei twice, and he can be said to be a meritorious minister and a young talent. Pity...... He doesn't want to repay the emperor's kindness, this ...... After coming and going, he became a traitor to the court, which is really ...... It's emotional. ”

Lin Ke saw that Han Jian was still looking at him with a cold look, so he stated his past. It turned out that Yang Hui was a young man, and he had accompanied the empress's grandfather, Emperor Shaozong, to conquer Xianbei twice, although the two expeditions ended in vain, but Yang Hui made a lot of contributions. After that, Yang Hui was sent to the northern border to stabilize the frontier, and then after the establishment of the Northern Palace. He became the general of the Northern Palace. But later, Yang Hui still returned to Luoyang, but he seemed to be excluded in the Luoyang Dynasty, so he had no choice but to go to the Western Capital and defect to the Western Palace.

After listening to this, Han Jian couldn't help but think in his heart that such a little-known figure still had such a tortuous history. No wonder the Empress summoned him when she saw him.

“…… His Royal Highness the East King, speaking of which, Yang Hui is this person. It has something to do with you. Lin Ke said suddenly.

"What's the matter?"

Speaking of which. This Yang Hui, but the East King is your maternal uncle, don't you know the East King? Lin Ke said curiously.

Han Jian really didn't expect his mother. It's surnamed Ho. This is also what he overheard Sanniang Han Cuishi mention when he was a teenager. And the family is basically secretive about his mother. Han Jian went to his mother's grave once when he was young, but he only remembered that it was an empty tombstone. I remember that he asked Han Song at that time, and Han Song mentioned that he would wait until his father's bones were found before he would come back to be buried with his mother and erect a tombstone.

And in the years since, Han Song has never taken him to his mother's grave again, which is also a stalk in his heart.

Now, an uncle ran out? Is it still different from my mother?

"Where did Lin Shangshu know? What is the connection between this person and my mother, who even have a different last name? Han Jian couldn't help but want to break the casserole and ask to the end.

"This ...... It's really hard to say, in fact, this Yang Hui is ...... with Princess Dong It is your mother's concubine, Your Royal Highness the King of the East, and she is a half-brother and sister, this ...... It's not good to talk too much. But that's what happened, and the lower officials thought that His Royal Highness the East King had already known. Gaffes, gaffes. ”

After Lin Ke finished speaking, he seemed to be secretive and didn't continue.

At this time, the empress also summoned him in.

Han Jian entered the tent with a little puzzlement, and at this time Yang Hui was kneeling on the ground with old tears. Although Han Jian didn't know what the empress said, he would find out when he asked the guards.

"Your Majesty, how to deal with the rebellion of these Western King Army?" Han Jian asked.

"Take care of it first, and when I return to Jiangdu, I will deal with it." The empress seemed to not want to mention the past, and said with emotion.

Han Jian wondered in his heart, how complicated can this relationship be with his mother's "half-brother" brother and sister? Han Jian really didn't dare to think much about it in his heart, but he didn't know much about his mother, he had many aunts on weekdays, and he was reincarnated as a human being with the memories of his previous life, so he didn't want to carry the burden of family affection in this life.

"Hold on." Han Jian gave an order, and the guards escorted everyone away, and Han Jian also withdrew and returned to his tent.

"Xianggong, what's the matter? There are many things on your mind, could it be that there is something going on over there? ”

Yang Li'er was sleeping in her clothes, but when she saw Han Jian coming in, she stepped forward and asked.

"Qiang'er, have you heard, what uncle do I have?" Han Jian asked.

"Xianggong is really good at laughing, what relatives does the Dongwang Mansion have, Xianggong doesn't know, he actually came to ask the concubine?" Yang Li'er glanced at Han Jian and said.

Han Jian sighed helplessly: "I heard something from Lin Shangshu today, he said that there is a veteran named Yang Hui who came to attack the camp tonight, and it seems to be my maternal uncle." It's strange that I didn't know anything about it. ”

Yang Li'er tilted her head sideways, thought for a while, and said, "Then why don't you ask a few princesses of the county when you go back, maybe they know?" ”

Han Jianxin said that if he had to wait until he returned to Jiangdu to ask his aunts, it was better to go straight to the point and ask the empress. Although he also understands that the Empress may not tell the truth.

Early the next morning, someone from Yuzhou came to report that the king of Nan had led some followers out of the city and was coming to the barracks.

Han Jian wanted to ask the empress about his mother, but he could only put it aside for the time being. He had to be ready to meet Yang Luochuan.

By noon, Yang Luochuan and his entourage were less than twenty miles away from the camp of the Dongwang Army, and Han Jian was about to send someone out to greet him, when Fa Yi came to report that the empress had an invitation.

Han Jian followed Fa Yi to the empress's bed, and walking on the road, Han Jian and Fa Yi walked side by side and asked, "Master, do you know what happened to Yang Hui yesterday?" ”

"Huh?" Fa Ye was at a loss, and from this expression, Han Jian knew that Fa Ye didn't know anything about his "maternal uncle".

"Master, have you ever seen my mother? I'm talking about biological mothers. Han Jian said again.

"Hmm." Fa Ye nodded, "When I was young, I was with your mother, and your mother was also my senior sister. ”

Han Jian nodded, he had learned some things about the Shangqing Palace before, and knew that the practice in the Shangqing Palace was in the form of a senior sister and a junior sister, saving manpower. After all, the inner door of the Shangqing Palace is full of women, and it will be more convenient to act on weekdays.

"Does the master know what other relatives my mother has?" Han Jian asked again.

Fa Yi shook his head and said, "I don't know much about your mother. His Majesty didn't allow me to ask more. Why are you asking about this? ”

"Oh, it's fine." Han Jian smiled, and then stopped asking this question.

The Empress did not see him in her own tent, but opened a makeshift tent on the side to meet the courtiers. When Han Jian arrived, Lin Ke and several civil officials of the imperial court were also there, as if they were discussing something.

Han Jian was very unimpressed with the empress's private deliberations, and now he was in charge of the entire Dongwang Mansion, and the empress was doing these things as if she was making small moves.

"The minister has seen His Majesty." Han Jian entered the tent and saluted.

As Han Jian saluted, the empress raised her head to look at Han Jian, nodded slightly, and said, "King Dong, I heard that the car of the Southern Palace's mansion is coming, are you ready to greet it?" ”

"The minister has sent out to meet him. Another 2,000 horsemen were sent to protect him. Han Jian said.

The empress asked again: "What is the movement on the side of the Western Capital Barracks?" ”

Han Jian saluted: "The minister also sent people to keep an eye on the Xidu military camp, until yesterday he sent troops and horses to attack my camp, and to this day, there has been no movement." ”

The empress said, "After the king of the south comes here, how are you going to entertain him?" ”

Han Jian thought to himself, what does the empress want to ask so much? Just to remind him to entertain Yang Luochuan well?

"Back to His Majesty, the King of the South came in person, but to ask His Majesty for the guilt. Whether His Majesty is lenient or has other plans, the minister really does not dare to speculate. If your majesty has any drive, just give the order, and the minister should do it. ”

Han Jian's meaning is very simple, instead of you coming to ask me, I should ask you. How you want to entertain Yang Luochuan, whatever you want.

Han Jian didn't believe that the empress dared to kill Yang Luochuan, which would only make Yuzhou feel the same hatred and hatred, and it would not be half beneficial to the imperial driver's personal expedition at that time.

"I'm going to go out of the camp to meet you personally, King Dong, do you have any objections?" The Empress said with a majestic face.

"The minister does not dare to object." Han Jian saluted.

"Okay, King Dong, you will go out of the camp with me to meet the chariot of King Nan."

After the empress finished speaking, she got up and took the officials present out of the tent. Han Jian got out of the way, and the empress passed by him and walked out of the camp first.

Han Jian glanced at Lin Ke, Lin Ke stepped forward and said in a low voice: "This is His Majesty's decision, and the lower officials have not interfered." ”

Lin Ke felt that the empress's actions had caused Han Jian to be a little dissatisfied, and hurriedly stepped forward to clear up the relationship, indicating that he did not bring up the matter.

Han Jian wasn't too dissatisfied, but he just felt that the empress's behavior was a little weird. From the empress seeing Yang Hui yesterday to the fact that she wants to personally go out of the camp to greet Yang Luochuan today, this is very different from the empress who has always stated that she is not ready to get involved in politics again.

Han Jian took some retinues and generals and walked with the empress in the direction of the camp gate.

Because the camp was stationed with nearly 40,000 soldiers and horses, and the area was also very large, plus some defenses and fortifications of the camp, the whole camp was four or five miles away. From the queen's tent to the gate of the camp, it will take half a day.

In the direction of the east gate of the main gate of the camp, at this time, some cars could already be seen in the distance approaching this side, in the direction of a hill, and the sentinels of the East Wangfu were passing on the news, indicating that it was as usual.

"Your Majesty, aren't you worried that Yang Luochuan didn't have a good heart this time, and used himself as bait, but in fact, he sent soldiers and horses to prepare to attack our army's camp?" Han Jian suddenly approached the empress's ear and asked in a low voice.

The empress glanced at Han Jian sideways, and her footsteps stopped.

"King Dong, have you gotten any news?" The Empress frowned.

Han Jian smiled and said, "The minister is just reminding His Majesty to be careful. Yang Luochuan is treacherous, and His Majesty is not unaware. In addition, the previous Majesty Xià led the civil strife in the Southern Wangfu, which had already caused him to be dissatisfied, and if he took the opportunity to retaliate this time, or colluded with the Xiwangfu, it would be Yu Majesty, and it would be unfavorable to our army.
