If Dugu Shan had a correct guess, and the fact that the Northern Expedition really had the shadow of Emperor Wuyuan, then the hidden and comprehensive skills and the vicious and vicious scheming would be really scary.

Even though Yang Jian is broad-minded and sincerely protects Gala, how far can Gala go with the cruelty of Emperor Wuyuan?

Even Yang Jian didn't know how cruel Emperor Wuyuan was, after he secretly disrupted the storm and provoked trouble, how long could that sincere love last?

The hardships and unpredictable road ahead made Dugu Shan shudder.

But Yang Jian's sincerity and Gala's upcoming difficulties made Dugu Shan feel unbearable.

The pearl held in the palm of his hand and the descendants of Aji who are treasured, Dugu Shan certainly wants to hold the best things in the world to his daughter, so that she can get what she wants and stay with the intimate person who deserves her.

I guessed and inferred in my heart, and hesitated, and when I came to my senses, the sky was already bright.

Dugu Shan did not sleep all night, washed his face with cold water, and his spirits recovered a lot.

Yesterday was in a hurry, and although I had already thanked me, I was in a hurry. At this moment, there was another matter of Gala in it. After Dugu Shan washed up, he simply used the food sent by Li Bing. He was about to go to Zijing Pavilion to see him, but in the cold morning breeze, Yang Jian walked towards him with the red sun shadow that had just moved to the White Deer Pavilion.

He was wearing a homely black clothes, with a black gold crown tied around his head, swaying with his head, and being upright and noble.

Dugu Shan hurried to the door to kneel down to greet him, but was helped up by Yang Jian with one hand.

Compared to yesterday's coldness and embarrassment, this attitude can be called kindness. Dugu Shan's attitude is respectful, so please ask Yang Jian to come in.

Dugu Shan talked with Yang Jian for nearly an hour before opening the door.

Then, he went straight to Xian's residence.

Gala had already used up his breakfast at this moment. When he went to his father's place, he heard that Yang Jian was inside, so he turned around and returned, and looked at Han Boyue. Seeing that he was just sitting down, he took him around to relax and then came to Xian.

The guest house is specially for guests to use. Although it is not spacious, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone are all complete. Gala is afraid that Han Boyue will feel lonely alone, and in addition, he has something to do in his heart, so he also took the paper and spread it out. He sat opposite Han Boyue, studying his own calligraphy.

In the outside room, Xian and Hua Shang sat around the cage, smoky incense on their clothes.

When Yang Jian arrived, the servant lady in the museum reported that Xian did not disturb the two children, and hurriedly greeted Hua Shang. Then she saw Yang Jian and Dugu Shan standing one after another, each with solemn expressions.

She invited her to come into the house to serve tea, and then she heard Yang Jian say, "Where is Gala?"

"I am learning calligraphy with Young Master Han in the middle." Xian replied.

When Yang Jian heard this, his eyes looked inside, and his eyes were blocked by the beautiful curtain tent.

After all, the guest house is different from the bedroom. Except for the innermost part of the bathroom, there are similar furnishings everywhere, so there is no need to avoid suspicion. His eyes stopped for a moment, got up and walked over, opened the curtain and saw Gala and Han Boyue sitting opposite each other under the south window, concentrating on writing.

Both of them looked at him sideways, focused and did not notice any movement.

Half of Gala's body was hidden behind the desk, but he saw the beautiful brocade clothes, the beads and hairpins hanging from the high-padded black hair, and the bright red beads lined up in his ears, which was particularly elegant. Han Boyue, opposite her, also pursed her lips tightly, compared with the book, and slowly copied them with strokes, with less sadness from the previous few days in her expression.

Yang Jian didn't say anything. After watching for a while, he quietly closed the curtain and returned to the table, saying, "Go to Zijing Pavilion to talk in detail."

This is naturally something that concerns Gala.

Xian and Dugu Shan looked at each other, and saw that the person frowned, he nodded gently.

It seems that Dugu Shan did not insist on opposing it.

When he arrived at Zijing Pavilion, when he heard Yang Jian and Dugu Shan talk about his previous relationship, Xian realized that although Dugu Shan did not object, he was worried in the end and did not agree immediately. Instead, he led the topic from Gala to Ronglou.

He was trapped in Shiyangcheng for more than half a year. Although he was imprisoned, he could also see Yingzu's situation when he was with Yingzuxu and the snake. Then he speculated that the King of Beiliang was brave and warlike, and his greedy and lustful nature was inherited from the King of Beiliang. He failed to get too many benefits in Yunzhong City, so he seized the Supreme Emperor and the abducted court officials, intending to make a fortune. He even mentioned to Dugu Shan that if Dugu Shan handed over the Long Life Lock and the treasure he had collected, he could immediately let the Supreme Emperor return and help the Fu family regain his position as the most powerful minister. In return, the Great Sui Dynasty would pay tribute with silver cloth every year.

Of course, Dugu Shan would not tell these words, but Ying Zuo's greed and secret ambitions were already obvious.

It was a group of hungry wolves entrenched outside Huyang Pass, who could go south at any time and invade and plunder. Even though Meng Xu was brave and good at fighting, his national strength was still weak, but he could not withstand endless wars.

The alliance with Southern Chen and the front and back shocked Northern Liang, making them dare not act lightly, became a way to benefit each other.

Although Dugu Shan didn't know much about Yang Jian, he could also see from Xian's retelling about Yunzhongcheng and Suizhou wars, even though he had a cold and calm temperament like Emperor Wuyuan, his ambitions were completely different. Moreover, Gala had entrusted the long-lived Lock to Yang Jian, so Dugu Shan naturally hoped that Yang Jian could become a wise ruler and live up to the protection of the Nanfeng clan for a hundred years.

Even though Rong Lou was not Gala's grandfather, Dugu Shan was originally trying to ask the emperor to go and lobby.

He was willing to form an alliance to share the country's worries. Yang Jian couldn't ask for it, so he did not mention Gala's marriage for the time being, but only discussed the matter of Nan Chen.

...

At this moment, the three of them mentioned the alliance again. They all had this intention and quickly agreed on it.

Xian first compiled the book, and Dugu Shan personally took the letter to Nanchen to visit Ronglou. After Yang Jian returned to the capital, he reported to the Supreme Emperor as soon as possible. If the Supreme Emperor's permission is obtained, the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple will arrange personnel to go to Nanchen to discuss. If Nanchen is unintentional, Dugu Shan can send the news as soon as possible. If Nanchen intends to form an alliance, Xian will surely invite Nanchen to visit the capital on a blind date and the two countries will form an alliance.

After discussing, Xian changed his tone, "And as for Gala..."

She paused, Dugu Shan understood and said, "Galao is limited in age and has no one to take care of her. She is afraid that she will be in a difficult situation. Your highness is sincere, which is indeed beyond my expectations. I naturally hope that those who are in love will eventually get married. But please forgive me, Galao cannot follow His Highness back to the capital at this moment."

Yang Jian sat upright beside the desk, and Duan Su was as calm as usual, "Why?"

Dugu Shan stood up and bowed to Yang Jian, "There has been stolen in the palace. This is a ruling of the holy will. It can keep the lives of the female relatives in the palace. I have already expressed great gratitude. Gala is the daughter of the Fu family, and his bloodline will not change. Returning to the capital will still make the emperor angry. I am foolish in my opinion, it is better to keep her in Suizhou for a while. If the alliance is in sight, I will take her back to the capital when the Prime Minister of the Southern Chen Kingdom arrives."

The identity of Gala will naturally be completely different from that of this moment when he was brought to the capital by the blind spot of Southern Chen.

Even though he is still the granddaughter of the Fu family, the attitudes of the capital and even the father will be slightly different after all. Yang Jian is willing to go back with a glorious look, straighten his waist, go in and out of the palace, and walk in and out of the capital.

But when the alliance will be concluded, I will capture her back to her. Could it be that she will be separated?

Yang Jian pondered and frowned, "Are you afraid that Gala would be wronged?"

"I'm not to hide it from your highness, I really have this concern." Dugu Shan respectfully, but he had no intention of giving in. "The big mistake in the past has already been caused. I feel guilty and frightened. Only by effectively doing everything possible and being heartbroken can I repay your kindness. If the Supreme Emperor sees the blame, no matter how severe the punishment is, I'm willing to accept it. But Gala is innocent and should not be implicated in vain. I'm saying something that is too presumptuous. Even if the Highness takes care of her, she will still be wronged for no reason when she returns to the capital at this moment."

This unreasonable grievance naturally refers to Emperor Wuyuan’s previous intimidation.

Yang Jian's face was not very good-looking, but he had to admit that what Dugu Shan said was not too much.

He pondered without saying a word, Dugu Shan had already knelt down and said, "If Your Highness really wants Yugala, I beg you to think about her a little bit."

At this moment, the discussion was not about the identity of a monarch and minister. Yang Jian's expression moved and raised his hand to help Dugu Shan up.

The two of them were the closest people to Gala. Although there were old things, from this matter, they were willing to promote an alliance with Nanchen, and they also wanted to make a contribution to the crime and slightly resolve the hatred that day. Although there was a view to the government's affairs, in the final analysis, they also wanted to find a help for Gala so that she could enter the East Palace safely.

Yang Jian was silent for a while before he said slowly: "Just as you said."

Dugu Shanbian thanked him.

Yang Jian seemed to be self-deprecating, "It's my fault that I have to force you, so why should Lord Fu thank you? Although Li Bing has been removed, Suizhou may still have remnants and should not be taken lightly. The old lady and Galo still live in the Bailu Pavilion for easy care. How about it?"

"The Bailu Pavilion is close to the government office, and under strict defense, everything will be fine." Dugu Shan smiled.

The matter was agreed on.

Yang Jiande set off for Beijing on the 13th day of the 12th lunar month. When he arranged his itinerary, he stayed overnight. In addition to Fang Yiai, everyone rode back to Beijing on horseback and tried not to delay on the road.

Since this is the arrangement, it is obvious that it is not walking with Gala.

Because Li Fenglin and Jiang did not plan to return to Beijing for the New Year because they were decided by Suizhou, Gala would definitely not go with them.

Han Qinhu and Li Bing were surprised when they heard this arrangement.

It was just such a strange arrangement, so of course it was not easy to ask Yang Jian directly. After leaving the hall, Han Qinhu thought that Li Bing was Gala's cousin, so he whispered to ask him what was going on.

Li Bing looked confused.

Since then, he was able to see Gala's intentions and saw Gala bandage Yang Jian's wounds sooner or later. Even when he did not avoid it even late at night, Li Bing knew that Gala should be determined not to escape Yang Jian. When Dugu Shan arrived, Yang Jian visited the bride, and all the signs seemed to be Gala's attitude of following back to Beijing.

He felt sad after all. Although he had been going to Dugu Shan for the past few days, he told him about the whereabouts of Mrs. Fu, Fu Liangsi, Fu Liangyong and others, he did not dare to mention Gala's whereabouts for a long time.

At this time, he was full of doubts and walked not far with Han Qinhu. He couldn't help but go to Xian's residence.

When I got there, I saw Gala and Han Boyue there too.

Han Boyue had obviously just received the news that he was going back to Beijing. He stood in the corridor with Gala, pulling Gala's sleeve, as if asking. Gala was sitting in the red railing under the corridor, with a silver cloak behind him, holding Han Boyue's hands, as if coaxing him. When he got closer, he heard her soft comfort, "... After a while, my sister will still go back to the capital. Would it be good to accompany you to practice calligraphy?"

"But I still want to go with my sister." Han Boyue lowered his head, feeling embarrassed.

Li Bing walked lightly, and when he heard Han Boyue's plea, he stopped as if he was looking forward to the answer.

But Gala only patted Han Boyue's little shoulder, "Sister stays here for something. When the matter is done, I will go back to the capital to see you, and I won't lie."

Han Boyue nodded silently and stopped talking.

Since he was young, Han Lin was a kind father, but he was mostly a martial artist. He was either older officers or new recruits of seventeen or eighteen years old. After training every day, he was exhausted and rude and straightforward. Few people were like Gala, and they comforted him softly. Although he was stubborn and tough, he finally lost his father for a few days. Yang Jian was not able to get close to him. He was surrounded by military officers and guards. After a few days of getting along, he unconsciously became a little dependent on Gala.

Garo looked at him, noticed his intention, and whispered: "I'm afraid I'm going to the capital and no one will take care of me, right?"

Han Boyue bit his lip, shook his head quickly, and after a moment, he honestly said: "Dad is not here, uncles and brothers are not here..."

"Not afraid." Garo said indifferently, "When you return to the capital, the emperor will take care of you. He also said that he would send someone to take your aunt and uncle back to the capital and accompany you." In fact, she lowered her voice and said something like a little secret, "Although the emperor looks a little fierce, he treats people well, so don't be afraid of him."

Han Boyue hesitated and looked up, "Really?"

Gala squeezed his eyes and nodded firmly.

After all, Han Boyue was already sensible. It was obvious that she was deliberately trying to make him happy. She couldn't help but smile and then raised her eyes and saw Li Bing.

Gala turned around with his eyes, saw Li Bing standing alone under the jujube tree in the yard, and hurriedly stood up and said, "My cousin came over and didn't say anything!"

"I want to hear you whispering, but Bo Yue discovered it." Li Bing smiled and stepped forward and rubbed Han Boyue's head, saying, "Although Sister Fu cannot go back immediately, I'll go with you. When I arrive in the capital, can I take you to play? There are many powerful weapons in the schoolyard of the East Palace, and the street market is more lively than here. You will like it." As he said, he specifically picked interesting things in the capital to Han Boyue.

He grew up in the capital city, and he was naughty and did everything. Over the years, he had already visited all the interesting places in the capital city. For the seven-year-old child, Li Bing knew the most about what it was attractive. He told him all kinds of exquisite and ingenious gold and wood toys, which gradually aroused his yearning, and finally made Han Boyue's face turn clear.

Curiosity about the unknown replaced the uneasy, and even the grief of losing his father was relieved a lot. Han Boyue finally regained the appearance of the monkey he had when he first met. He stood in the corridor, his eyes rolling, "Are these real?"

"Of course, I don't believe me and ask you Sister Fu."

Han Boyue then looked at Gala, and saw her nodding, and then he was willing to believe it. After scanning the hesitation he had when he came, he left happily.

Li Bing then asked Gala about his plans. Gala told him truthfully and asked him to go back to Kyung to take care of Han Boyue.

"He doesn't have to worry about it." Li Bing knew much more about the court than Gala. "General Han Lin is the key to his highness in eliminating the hidden dangers in Suizhou. If he hadn't decided to surrender, His Highness might not have been able to make arrangements with him. Not to mention that on Xiaoxiangling, His Highness relied on Han Lin to lead his troops to defend himself, so he could get General Huang to bring his troops to help. This contribution is really great."
