Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 326
Since there is no evidence to prove that Shen Xi's conjecture is true, this topic was not discussed any further.

But since there is a shadow, of course, it cannot be completely ignored.

Mu's side is very calm, and there is no news for further reference.

The days flashed to the Lantern Festival.

It was only two days before Shen Xi's school opened.

Haining Guard had some important work to do, Xiao Huai went to the camp, so he couldn't accompany her to enjoy the lanterns, but he promised her that when he came back, he would find time to accompany her to fly a kite.

And from this day on, the palace also resumed the morning court.

After the meeting, the ministers of all ministries sat in the Qianqing Palace to drink tea, and the morning light came in through the long open windows, making the atmosphere more harmonious than before.

King Yan sat on the upper throne, watching the military homework that the little emperor asked Li Qiu to hand over.

Suddenly, Shi Di, Minister of the Household Department, came over and sat beside him, and said with a smile, "My brother has something to tell the prince, let's see what the prince thinks?"

Shi Di was Taifu Bi's protégé and one of Li Ding's counselors back then. Naturally, these people had some personal relationships with King Yan.

King Yan glanced at him, smiled casually and flipped through his folds: "What good thing do you have?"

Shi Di then glanced at where Han Dun was sitting, and said with a smile, "What does the lord think of Ning girl in the Han family?"

King Yan paused slightly when he heard this, and looked at him half-downcast.

"My lord, don't tell my brother that you don't know. Who in the capital doesn't know the name of girl Ning?"

Shi Di smiled: "Now that the Han family is in mourning, and Han Ning is not too young, if we drag it on for fear of being delayed, the Han family is in a hurry to propose marriage to her in Hot Xiaoli.

"Looking from the side, I think that a girl like Ning is the most suitable to marry into the palace. What does the prince say?"

Yan Wang raised his lips and said in a rambling voice: "You are late. This king only has one son, and he is already engaged."

"Brother, I'm not talking about the prince." Shi Di looked at him deeply.

King Yan frowned, looked at him and said, "He Lan has very picky eyes, if he doesn't like it, I won't be willing to force him.

"Huo Jiu's temper is too savage, Miss Han is so delicate, I'm afraid I will be wronged if I follow him."

Shi Di looked at him for a while, and then said plainly: "Your lord never thought about himself?"

King Yan held the folded book in both hands, narrowed his eyes slightly, and fixed his eyes on him.

"Brother, what you mean is to win over you and the second Miss Han." Shi Di looked at him with a smile.

Whether his voice was high-pitched or not, it was just enough for three or two people around him to hear clearly.

Liang Xiu, who was holding the tea, immediately turned his head, looked at the squinting King Yan, and then looked at Han Dun, who was talking and laughing in the distance.

And the little emperor after the dragon case also threw himself straight at King Yan, seemingly insane for a while.

"When did Brother Shi change his career and become a matchmaker?" After a long silence, King Yan responded to Shi Di.

Shi Di said: "Brother thinks this is a match made in heaven. Only the famous Second Miss Han is worthy of the position of princess.

"Furthermore, the position of princess has been vacant for many years. Now that the son is old, the prince should think about himself. If the son can have a few more younger brothers, wouldn't he have siblings who can help him in the future?"

King Yan closed the fold, picked up the tea and smiled.

After the meeting adjourned, Liang Xiu returned directly to the Duke's Mansion.

Mrs. Liang took her daughter to look at the silk and satin. Seeing her husband's unkind expression, she immediately called her daughter back.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

"Han Dun wants to get married to Prince Yan's Mansion!" Liang Xiu's voice was a little cold.

He talked about the previous incident in the palace, and then said: "Who did Shi Di recommend himself? He is clearly the matchmaker invited by Han Dun!"

Mrs. Liang knows the seriousness.

They are Li Ding's people, protecting the little emperor.

Now the King of Yan is the Queen Mother Zheng's confidant, so much so that the military guards have to stand firmly on the Queen Mother Zheng's side during the years of open and secret battles between the palace and the Yan King's Mansion.

Han Dun is also a member of the palace. Although they don't have sufficient evidence about the matter between him and Queen Mother Zheng, how could he hide this from the imperial army when he entered and left the palace?So others don't know, but they know it in their hearts.

However, with the strong enemy of King Yan's Mansion standing there, it is impossible for them to take the initiative to poke this flaw and let King Yan's Mansion take advantage of it.

Therefore, they and Han Dun can be classified as an alliance, but the alliance belongs to the alliance, and when it comes to getting married, you can't be careless.

The character of the Han family is still a small matter. The important thing is that without marriage, he can still be swayed by the attitude of the little emperor about Han Dun and Queen Mother Zheng.

Once married, the Duke's Mansion and even the pro-military guards are tied to the Han family.

Of course, Liang Xiu couldn't be willing to let him be restrained by Han Dun, that's why he avoided the marriage discussion and didn't answer that day.

But now Han Dun turned his head and wanted to tell Han Ning to King Yan... Does this mean that if you can't win over the Liang family, you have to win over the Prince Yan's mansion?
"Maybe it's impossible?" She hesitated and said, "Xiao Huai and Han Dun fought like that, how could King Yan marry Han Ning?

"If he is married, wouldn't father and son have to turn against each other? Besides, what benefits will Han Dun get by doing this?"

"Of course he went for the military power of the Yan Palace, what else could it be?"

Liang Xiuchang let out a sigh of relief and said, "Letting King Yan marry Han Ning is a plan to alienate. Isn't it right for him to have the father and son of Yan King?
"Anyway, if this marriage is done, he will have a better chance of breaking into Prince Yan's residence.

"If he is asking for the military power for the emperor, that's all. The key is for him to ask for it.

"He is begging for himself, and I can't let him do it.

"Even if the military power is to be taken back, it must belong to the emperor! If it falls into his hands, the emperor will never have real power!"

"Then what are you going to do?" Madam Liang asked. "Are you going to break Han Dun's mind? Or agree to their marriage proposal?"

"No," he shook his head, "I didn't agree at the time, and if I went to the door at this time, I might have fallen into his trap instead."

What if Han Dun set up this situation by the way to kill two birds with one stone, plot against King Yan, and at the same time lure him into a marriage?

He had to be on his guard.

And to stop Han Dun's idea, how can he stop?The two powerful ministers want to marry, is there any room for him to intervene?

"I should facilitate them."

He held his hands in thought for a moment, then raised his head: "Han Dun and the Yan Palace are mutually restraining each other, if Han Dun falls, the Yan Palace will eventually become a disaster.

"With our tens of thousands of soldiers and guards alone, we can't hold back, so Han Dun can't fall.

"But if I want to maintain the current situation where the two sides are mutually restrained, I must not allow him to seize the military power of Prince Yan's Mansion before the emperor takes charge.

"So I can only provoke Xiao Huai by facilitating this marriage.

"Letting Xiao Huai suppress Han Dun is much better than me going into battle."

Mrs. Liang pondered, but finally she could only nod her head.
