Han Jian couldn't figure out the fact that the Yanning Prince poured wine to keep him that day. Han Jian had thought that Yanning Prince wanted to use him to stay overnight in the mansion to enhance relationships.

Sima Yi said: "If that old guy really believes that Young Master, you are Your Majesty's illegitimate son... Of course it is not true, and he also believes that his granddaughter is also born by Your Majesty... Then he wants to marry his granddaughter to Young Master, and he... doesn't want to live anymore?"

"If the Prince of Yanning knew that he did this, his heart would be punished. However, the rumor-maker should be punished even more. This rumor first arose, it is likely to be for the Prince of Yanning to hear it." Han Jian sighed, "There is no real evidence now, everything is speculation. The Prince of Yanning may not be as we think. Let's just wait and see what we change."

Sima Yi said anxiously: "But Young Master, the rumors outside are flying all over the sky now. I am afraid that the censor will soon pass the news to His Majesty. This may be unfavorable to Young Master."

Han Jian said calmly, "Rumors stop at the wise, now we don't need to pay attention to rumors. In the past few days, Your Majesty will decide the candidate for the prince. Young Master Yang has not left the palace these few days, so he should not come out until the matter of establishing the prince is settled."

"It's better if Mr. Yang doesn't come out, otherwise it's a problem. I found that Mr. Yang is a disaster star, and as long as he comes, something will be guaranteed."

Faced with Sima Zhi's complaints, Han Jian smiled indifferently and ignored them.

...

...

On the morning of the next day, someone came to the palace to pass the message saying that His Majesty summoned him. The person who passed the message was not Lu Shaokun, but an ordinary eunuch, but the queen's oral order was summoned without a written letter.

"This father-in-law, I don't know what Your Majesty summoned me?" Han Jian asked.

"I don't know." The person who sent the message was just a little eunuch. When Han Jian asked about it, he seemed very nervous and his hands were held together to answer.

"Young Master Entering the Palace?" Sima Yi yawned out, "It's not... what I said yesterday?"

Han Jianxin said that even if the empress learned from the censor about the rumors about the illegitimate child and the illegitimate daughter from the censor, she would not ask him for questions. What did she say to him? Tell him not to think too much? This is a bit overwhelming, and it is hard to guarantee that he would not think too much. Han Jian thought. The empress's summons were mostly related to the establishment of the crown prince. Now the public opinion of the crown prince has been fully created. According to the tradition of the Wei Dynasty, when the emperor appointed his heir, he would ask the opinions of the princes and nobles in Luoyang City, saying that it was a discussion, but Han Jian knew that there was nothing to discuss.

Han Jian brought the guards and entered the palace with the little eunuch and a group of palace guards.

The place where the empress summoned was not in the main hall, but in Ye'an Pavilion, so there was not much restraint when summoned. Han Jian was also worried about going to the court to talk to so many court officials. What he had to do was to be as low-key as possible, because he had just found out about fraud and corruption cases, which made it difficult for him to keep a low profile now.

In Ye'an Pavilion, the queen was still sitting behind the desk. Han Jian arrived late. When he entered, there were three people standing inside, two of whom he had first met, one of whom looked glossy and pink, and the other was a woman, who was in her twenties and was very elegant and a royal noble in palace outfit. The last one. Han Jian recognized that it was the Prince of Yanning who gave him a large piece of white jade yesterday.

"See Your Majesty." Han Jian said with a tribute.

The queen was looking down at the memorial book, and when she heard this, she raised her head and looked at Han Jian, smiled and put down the memorial book.

"You are late, Dongwang." The queen smiled.

"Please atone for your sins." Han Jian said hurriedly.

"Your Eastern Prince's Mansion is the farthest from the palace. It takes time for the people you have passed by. You will know all these people?" The queen smiled and said again. "I think you haven't known them in Luoyang for a few days. This is my uncle, the prince of Yanning. The uncle, this is the backbone of the Dong King, the future southeast of the Wei Dynasty."

Han Jian bowed and saluted to the Prince of Yanning. The Prince of Yanning smiled and said, "Haha, the old minister has seen him with the King of East. It's not the first time. The old minister also invited the King of East to the mansion for wine. The third emperor's nephew was there at that time."

The queen smiled, nodded without comment.

"This..." The queen raised her hand and gestured to the man with a greasy and powdery face in her thirties. She said, "It's Prince Kang. King Kang is old and has been ill in bed for many years and cannot come in person. Prince Kang's son comes on behalf of his father."

"I've seen the prince." Han Jian smiled and bowed.

Han Jian had heard about the old King Kang before. King Kang and Han Jian were both princes. Now he was in his eighties and had many sons, but he only had one legitimate son. He heard that he was an ignorant and mediocre person who liked some "strange and lustful skills" and lingered in the prostitute's Chuguan for many years. King Kang was sick for many years. Some people said that the reason why King Kang was unable to return to heaven was that he could not let go of his funeral after his death, and his son completely ruined his family after his death.

"The King of East is polite." Prince Kang smiled at Han Jian, and there was a feeling of despicable feeling in his smile that made Han Jian's hair stand up.

After the first two introductions, only the woman in her twenties has not been introduced yet. In fact, Han Jian doesn't need to guess that this woman is Princess Anping, whose name is Xiuxiu, the eldest daughter of Prince Anping. After Prince Anping died, she inherited the family business and took care of her family's younger siblings to manage the royal family's property. It is very similar to the situation of the queen.

Yang Xiuxiu had already had a marriage contract when Prince Anping was alive in her early years. Unfortunately, Prince Anping died of illness before getting married. Yang Xiuxiu was also very "independent" and even asked the queen to "die her husband" for the reason that she had to take care of her younger siblings wholeheartedly. Because her father passed away this year, she had to mourn for three years, and even if she wanted to get married, she had to wait three years later. So the queen did not agree to Yang Xiuxiu's request, but asked her to marry after the mourning period expired. Now, Yang Xiuxiu's three-year mourning period will be over, which means that she will marry a wife soon.

"This is Princess Anping, my princess. She rarely leaves the palace on weekdays. You should never see the East King." The queen introduced with a smile.

"I've seen His Highness the Eastern King." This time it was not Han Jian's ritual, but Yang Xiuxiu's rituals first and his demeanor was extraordinary.

"Princess Anping is polite." Han Jian bowed with a smile.

Everyone present has introduced the two princes and one prince, and one prince, and one prince. These are the people with the highest titles in the Wei Dynasty except for the three princes. There are many princes in the Wei Dynasty, but most of them are hereditary in the royal family and are enfeoffed in other places, with land but no soldiers or administrative power, which is far from the core of power.

"I have summoned you to come and discuss with you something. It is about the establishment of the crown prince. I wonder what you guys think?" the queen asked bluntly.

After the queen finished speaking, she looked around the four people in Ye'an Pavilion. Among the four people, the first one was Prince Kang. He looked at Han Jian sideways, as if he wanted to listen to Han Jian's opinion, but the first one was Prince Yanning.

The Prince of Yanning bowed and said, "The establishment of a crown prince is related to the country and the country, and is a major event of the heavenly family. Your Majesty has a long-term plan and will definitely be able to select a prince with both moral integrity and talent to take on this responsibility. The old minister is talented and knowledgeable, and dare not make any comments on it."

Han Jian glanced at Prince Yanning. This old guy really got away. The scene was pretty. I just didn't say it. What can you do if you are the emperor?

The queen smiled and seemed to have become accustomed to the style of speaking and doing things in Yanning County.

"Everyone else says that you are the Xianwang, I think it is true. If the emperor is not talking about it, I will not force you." After the queen said that, she looked at the other people again, hoping to have a good opinion.

After the Prince of Yanning finished speaking, the remaining three people had to say no matter how they said. Han Jian didn't want to speak first. He wanted to listen to the other people's meaning first and let them test the queen's words.

At this time, Prince Kang still didn't speak, and his eyes were still aiming at Han Jian, which made Han Jian very unhappy.

At this time, Yang Xiuxiu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the emperor is just a woman, so the court should not be discussed too much..."

The queen smiled and said, "I am not a woman too?"

"Your Majesty is beyond the reach of the Emperor's Sister. The Emperor's Sister just thinks that Your Majesty is now in his prime, so why should you be anxious about the establishment of the Prince? Why should you wait for the future and make plans?"

After Yang Xiuxiu finished speaking, Han Jian heard something in her words. Could it be that Yang Xiuxiu was suggesting that the queen would have children to inherit the throne in the future, and would not need to support her two younger brothers to the position of the crown prince?

The queen shook her head slightly and said, "I am in my prime now, but when I was the first emperor, I was in my prime, and it was not... Alas, life is always good and good. I just hope that once I have any problems, the Wei Dynasty will not be in chaos. By then, I will have no face to see the ancestors of the Yang family under the sacred waters."

The queen was very moved in her words. After saying this, she asked Prince Kang without waiting, and said, "I wonder what Prince Kang thinks?"

"This..." Prince Kang seemed very embarrassed when facing the Queen's problem. When he was so embarrassed, he couldn't help but look at Han Jian.

Han Jian really wants to blind Prince Kang's eyes. Why are you looking at?

"Your Majesty... I think... Your Majesty can... you can choose a prince... to be the prince. The third prince... Zihe and... the sixth prince are all good."

A sentence is stumble, and saying it means not saying it. Han Jian thought, is Prince Kang a stutter?

"Criminal Kang, please speak slowly." The queen said, "Tell me specifically, which one is more suitable to be the crown prince, my third brother or sixth brother?"

"This..." Prince Kang looked at Han Jian again and said, "I think... it's better to be the third prince."

Han Jian felt that Prince Kang was not stuttering, but it was probably the first time he was asked such an important question. Han Jian couldn't understand. A man in his thirties has been in prostitutes for many years and has come into contact with many people. How could he be so nervous when summoning a pair in front of the emperor?

Although Prince Kang said it was a stumble, he at least expressed his meaning. He supported making Yang Yu the crown prince. Han Jian thought to himself that there was no reason to have a position, and saying this opinion was equivalent to not saying it.

The queen did not blame Prince Kang too much, but turned her head to look at Han Jian and said, "What about the Eastern King?"

Han Jian bowed and said naturally: "I believe that in terms of knowledge, character and talent, the Sixth Prince is more suitable to ascend the position of prince."

Han Jian said something, and everyone in the room, including the palace maids, looked at him. His answer was too straightforward. Compared with the answers of several people in the past, his answer could be said to be a blue-level reply, but the content was puzzled by some people.

"Oh?" The queen frowned slightly, but still did not comment.
