Chapter 3435 The hatred is overwhelming


Chapter 3435 The hatred is overwhelming

Chang'an City.

There is no snow today. In the evening, the biting cold wind blows through the long street that is rarely visited by people, making a whining sound. The snow on the walls on both sides of the street is swept away by the cold wind and dances in the air. Hit on the face, it feels cold and painful like a knife.

Changsun Chong wore a heavy fur coat and rode southward from Zhuque Street. The sound of horse hooves sounded on the empty street. Looking ahead, the broad long street stretched straight. Walking through it, one felt that he was the only one in the world. Comfortable.

It's just that the weather is a bit cold, and the north wind blows up the snow on the walls on both sides of the street and drills it into your neck...

Changsun Chong shrunk his neck, clamped his horse's belly, and urged his horse to speed up towards the Mingde Gate in the south of Chang'an City. Dozens of soldiers swarmed behind him, passing through the long street like a gust of wind.

After leaving Mingde Gate, go straight south along the official road and enter Zhongnan Mountain.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and Zhongnan Mountain was covered with ice and snow, but it was still possible to see the road clearly. It's just that the mountain road is covered with ice and snow, so the horses can only move forward slowly. Otherwise, if they are not careful and cause the horses to stumble, they will fall into the ravine beside the road.

It was not until the end of Youshi that the group of people bypassed a mountain and arrived outside a dense forest.

Stopping next to the mountain road, you can see the white snow all over the distance. Through the sparse or dense trees, you can see a small Taoist temple hidden behind the dense forest. It is dotted with lights, red walls and black tiles, which makes people feel deep in their hearts in the biting cold wind. A touch of warmth...

Changsun Chong exhaled a breath of white air, waved his hand to the soldiers behind him, got off his horse, and faced the guards who were trotting forward.

"This is a royal forbidden garden, please leave as soon as possible!"

Several imperial guards saw a group of people stopping near the Taoist temple from a distance, and immediately rushed to chase them away. After all, the incident where Princess Changle was kidnapped and almost died in the mountains a few years ago had a great impact. I don't know how many imperial guards were affected by it afterwards. implicated.

Moreover, the situation in the capital has been unstable recently, and these imperial guards are even more energetic...

Changsun Chong couldn't help but stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "I have been entrusted by someone to meet with His Highness Changle for something important. There is a letter here. Please submit it to His Highness for review. If His Highness refuses to meet you, I will leave immediately. ”

He was wearing makeup, which was very different from his original appearance. Naturally, these guards could not recognize him. One of them stepped forward and took the letter suspiciously. He looked at the front and back of the letter and saw nothing, and said: "Then stop here. I have a thorough knowledge of the situation, and if you approach the Taoist temple without permission, you will be killed without mercy.”

Changsun Chong bowed hurriedly, with a look of fear on his face: "Here! You won't dare to exceed the distance by even half an inch."

The imperial guard and Pao Ze beside him nodded, turned around and walked quickly into the Taoist temple to ask for instructions. The remaining people held the swords at their waists and pushed Chang Sun Chong and others back a few steps, staring at them eagerly.

Changsun Chong looked at ease, standing with his hands behind his back, with three long strands of beard fluttering under his chin, giving him a somewhat elegant demeanor.

……

White snow covers the Taoist house. Looking out the window, the roof, walls, and distant ridges are all gray in the dim night. The yard is cleanly swept, revealing neat square tiles.

The earth dragon is burning in the alchemy room. The cold wind is blowing and the snow is falling outside, but the inside is warm and comfortable.

There is a small red clay stove next to the coffee table, and a teapot is placed on the road. A pot of tea is being boiled. White steam is spurting out from the spout, and the fragrance of tea is overflowing.

Princess Changle, who was dressed in a pure sermon robe, was leaning on the soft couch next to the coffee table, looking attentively at a volume of "Chongxu Sutra" held in her hand. There are candles burning on the coffee table, and the candlelight flickers, and the halo of light reflects on Princess Changle's flawless profile, and her delicate facial features outline the bright and dim light and shadow.

The spout of the teapot made a continuous sound of "wuwu", and a line of white air spurted out. Princess Changle put down the book, sat upright, and first took a deep dive, fully displaying the beautiful curves under the Qing sermon robe, and then stretched out the back. With her slender hands, she lifted the teapot off the small red clay stove.

The spout is tilted, and a stream of tea pours down into the white porcelain tea cup. The soup is apricot yellow, clear and bright, and has a slightly fragrant aroma.

He put down the teapot, picked up the teacup, brought it to his pink lips, and took a sip. The taste was light and the aftertaste was endless.

This is a kind of tea from the mountainous area of ​​Changxi County, Lingnan Road. It was recently discovered by the Fang family's tea factory. It's just that this kind of tea is not well known. If you want to promote it to the world, you must first make its name known, then carefully collect and prepare it and then give it to old relatives, friends, and social sages for promotion.

It is said that the tea sent to her was specially ordered by Fang Jun before leaving, and the best tea trees on the cliff were selected. Sipping the fragrant tea, listening to the cold wind raging outside the window, the firelight on the red mud path reflecting the blush on the pretty face, I heard that the man was fighting bloody battles in the ice and snow in the Western Region. I wonder if he could feel it in the cold night. To this wisp of lovesickness far away in Chang'an...

Thinking of this, the tea becomes sweeter and her cheeks become rosier.

It's a pity that after just one sip of this good tea, the sound of footsteps outside the door broke the mood of drinking tea...

The maid pushed in from outside the door, holding a letter in her hand. She presented it to Princess Changle with both hands and said in a low voice: "There is someone outside asking to see you, saying that you have been entrusted by someone to tell you something important. If Your Highness has read the letter, Nature knows the truth.”

"Yeah."

Princess Changle put down the tea cup, took the envelope, and opened it without sealing the seal. She took out the letter and unfolded it under the candle. After looking at the ten lines, the color changed.

Changsun Chong actually returned to Chang'an? !

I didn’t say anything in my heart. I just said that after experiencing life and death in Goguryeo, I realized a lot of truths. I felt that my past actions had hurt Changle too much, and I felt very uneasy. I was willing to come to apologize and plead guilty. There was one big thing. The matter must be told in person...

The quiet and beautiful mood was instantly broken. Princess Changle put the letter on the coffee table, straightened her waist subconsciously, thought for a while, and asked: "A few days ago, when you went to the prince's place with me, do you remember that the prince mentioned it? Changsun Chong is now in Pingrang City, serving as the "death king" of the Tang Dynasty. He wants to make meritorious deeds. Can he return to Chang'an if he can seek forgiveness from his father? "

The maid tilted her head slightly, thought about it carefully, and nodded: "It is true that this is the case. This servant once complained privately that the man committed such a heinous crime, how could your Majesty forgive him?"

Princess Changle frowned.

Since Changsun Chong entered Pingrang City willing to help the Tang Dynasty capture Pingrang City for the Tang Dynasty, it was absolutely impossible for him to leave Pingrang City before Pingrang City was captured.

But why does he appear in Zhongnan Mountain at this moment?

If Pingrang City has been captured and the Eastern Expedition has ended, then why is there no slight fluctuation in the court, and no one is cheering and praising it?

Taking a deep breath, she said in a clear voice: "Tell the guards outside the door to let the person in, and I will personally receive him."

"Here."

The maid didn't know what was going on, let alone who was coming, so she happily went out to inform.

Princess Changle was sitting in the alchemy room, looking at the red charcoal fire in the small red clay furnace, her bright eyes like autumn water were stained with an orange color, and she felt suspicious in her heart.

Perhaps when Changsun Chong came this time, he really realized his past mistakes, decided to change his past, and told her about the war in Liaodong?

After all, it was unreasonable for him to appear in Pingrang City at this moment.

As for sending someone to notify the Jingzhao Mansion to arrest Chang Sun Chong, or even ordering the guards to capture him, she had not thought about it that way. After all, the husband and wife had broken off their friendship long ago, and the man even wanted to kill him at the beginning, but after all, it was all impulsive. Even if the kindness was gone, it was not easy to send him to the guillotine with his own hands.

Perhaps Changsun Chong was just right about her affectionate character, so he dared to come to see her so openly...

After a while, footsteps sounded outside the door, and the maid whispered outside the door: "Your Highness, the man is here."

Princess Changle's heart tightened, and she pretended to be calm and said: "Invite him to come in to see you."

Once upon a time, she had long been disheartened by Changsun Chong. She felt that no matter what circumstances they met, she could hardly feel the unbearable resentment she felt in the past. After getting along with Fang Jun, his shadow slowly filled her heart. , not to mention every bit of other people’s things.

However, at this moment, she was about to face her ex-husband, but she felt a kind of panic in her heart.

She was also a little puzzled by her own reaction. There was no reason for it...

After a while, the door opened, and first the maid came in and stood on the right side of Princess Changle. Then a man with a beard and a slender figure walked in. A pair of bright eyes looked at Princess Changle slightly. For a moment, there seemed to be infinite emotion in his eyes. Appeared, then disappeared, bowed to salute, and bowed to the ground: "I have met His Highness Changle."

Although Changsun Chong has changed his appearance, how could Princess Changle, who has been sleeping with him for many years, not recognize him? Just the moment she saw him, Princess Changle finally understood where the frightened feeling in her heart came from.

In the past, the gentle and humble son of aristocratic family was favored and had a transcendent status. Everyone wanted to praise him as "the young master is like a jade". However, now, the man in front of him is like a poisonous snake. His every move, every move and his eyes are shining. A bone-chilling chill.

Princess Changle immediately regretted meeting Changsun Chong. This man was already possessed by hatred, and that hatred had turned into an invisible poisonous snake and beast, seeming to choose people to eat. (End of chapter)
