Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3383 Catastrophe is imminent
Hearing that Chang Sun Chong wanted to ground him, Chang Sun Yan's complexion changed drastically, and he hurriedly said: "Brother, why did you do this? My younger brother is your brother, how can you leak your whereabouts and cause death? Don't dare to do that !"

Now relying on the power of the East Palace, he was able to overwhelm all his brothers in the eldest grandson's family and protect himself. If he was banned by the eldest grandson Chong and could not pass the news of the eldest grandson's family to the East Palace, he would naturally lose his own value. Why would the East Palace protect him? with him?
And losing the protection of the Eastern Palace, based on what he did in the past, he might be poisoned to death in a blink of an eye...

Chang Sun Chong looked at Chang Sun Yan coldly, and said slowly: "We are blood brothers, brothers can bear other mistakes, but the crime of mutilating siblings and betraying the family is unforgivable even if one dies! Right now, the family At this critical moment, in order to prevent the news from leaking out, I will ground you for the time being, and after my father returns to the capital, my father will punish you, and I will not intervene. But if you are obsessed with your obsession, then don’t blame me for being ruthless."

Chang Sunyan looked at the face in front of him, which was much clearer than before, a little less romantic and suave, but a little more resolute and steady, and felt chills in his heart.

Of course Donggong is willing to protect him, because he still has value for Donggong, but if he is grounded in such a quiet manner, and then he is punished after his father returns to Beijing, even if Donggong wants to protect him, he can't do anything...

Seeing the imminent catastrophe, Chang Sunyan was flustered and terrified.

Behind Changsun Chong, several family soldiers came up silently.

Chang Sun Chong waved his hand casually, and said, "Let the fourth younger brother ride into the city with me, as I have something to say to the fourth younger brother."

"Here!"

A personal soldier stepped forward and untied Changsun Yan's saber from his waist, then tied his hands behind his back with a rope, and pushed him into the carriage.

Chang Sun Yan didn't say a word the whole time, and he cooperated very much. He knew that he couldn't resist right now, otherwise Chang Sun Chong might really be able to execute him on the spot.

When the eldest grandson Yan was escorted into the carriage, eldest grandson Chong looked at elder grandson Wen, and said calmly: "Brothers are united, and their profits cut through gold. It is true that the fourth brother is wrong, but what you do may not be better than the fourth brother. My father and I are disappointed."

The eldest Sun Yan knelt on the ground and did not dare to raise his head: "Brother taught you the right thing, but the situation was special at that time, and the younger brother didn't intend to frame the fourth brother..."

For a long time, Changsun Chong has been the heir of the Changsun family, and he was once deeply loved by His Majesty Li Er and Empress Wende, and he has a lot of prestige among brothers. Even the original Changsun Huan was deeply afraid of him. He obeyed his words, and Chang Sunyan respected and feared him even more.

"No need to say more."

Changsun Chong said: "Your fault is your own father's decision, and I am too lazy to take care of it. Returning to Beijing this time is a major event in preparation. You must do your best to help me. If you have meritorious service, your father will reward you for your merits in the future. Maybe you can make meritorious deeds." Otherwise, you may be sent to Northern Xinjiang to serve in the Hanhai Governor's Mansion."

The eldest grandson said hurriedly: "Everything is obeyed by the elder brother!"

Today's Hanhai Protectorate's Mansion seems to be the largest governing yamen in the Northern Xinjiang of the Tang Dynasty, but in fact, although it has a vast area, it is uninhabited.Not to mention the cold weather, and the fact that they have to fight those Hu tribes all day long, and wars break out almost every day. Where can they go there and suffer a serious crime?
Besides, once he is demoted to Hanhai, it means that he will no longer be able to interfere with the core of the eldest grandson's family, and he may never be able to return to Chang'an in this life...

Chang Sun Chong nodded indifferently: "You can do it yourself!"

Turn back to the carriage and board the carriage.

In the carriage, Changsun Yan sat there with his hands tied behind his back. After Changsun rushed in, an old man entered from the outside of the car, put a small box under his feet, and opened it to see that there were some bottles, cans, scissors, brushes, etc. belongings.

Pick up a small mustache, use a brush dipped in some glue or something to smear it, then stick it on Changsun Chong's lips, and then dip it in gouache to paint on his face...

A moment later, in front of Chang Sun Yan, a middle-aged scribe suddenly appeared with a gentle temperament and a clear appearance, without any of Chang Sun Chong's temperament and appearance.

This old man is actually a master of disguise, no wonder Chang Sun Chong returned to Chang'an in such a swaggering manner, but unexpectedly was recognized and arrested on the spot...

The carriage moved forward slowly, and when they arrived near Chunming Gate, some soldiers came to the city gate with the household registration documents they had prepared, and handed them over to the soldiers guarding the city for inspection.

Inside the carriage, Chang Sun Chong raised the curtain and glanced at it, frowned and said, "Why is the defense of Chang'an City so tight?"

The queues waiting to enter the city at the city gate lined up in a long line, and many pedestrians, carriages and horses moved slowly in the wind and snow, appearing extremely congested.

Changsun Yan said: "Since noon, there have been more soldiers in the city to patrol the neighborhoods, and more soldiers have been sent to the gates of the city to strictly check, but the so-called reason is not yet known."

Changsun Chong nodded.

Those who knew about His Majesty's serious condition included Li Ji besides his father.Since his father could send him back to Chang'an to prepare for important events, how could Li Ji not send someone to inform the prince of His Majesty's situation so that he can make early plans and take precautions?

Apparently, Li Ji's people had already arrived in Chang'an and informed the prince of the situation in Liaodong. This made Chang'an City's gates strictly guarded, and everyone who entered and exited had to be closely checked...

However, the household registration and identity certificate prepared by the eldest grandson's family are naturally flawless.

Suddenly there was a commotion in front of the city gate.

Zhang Sun Chong's heart tightened, he knocked on the carriage, and asked outside: "What happened?"

The coachman replied in a low voice: "It seems that a nobleman has left the city."

Changsun Chong heaved a sigh of relief, opened a gap in the car curtain, and looked out.All the soldiers guarding the city were mobilized to disperse the pedestrians, vehicles and horses who were waiting to enter the city in front of the city gate but temporarily stayed on the road out of the city. After a period of chaos, a group of vehicles slowly drove out from the city gate.

Several carriages went ahead, and more than [-] cavalry surrounded one of the four-wheeled carriages with ornate decoration, and drove past the official road under the crowd.

Chang Sun Chong caught a glimpse of the patterned emblem on the carriage of the four-wheeled carriage. It was the emblem that belonged exclusively to Princess Changle's mansion...

For a moment, Chang Sun Chong only felt a sharp pain in a corner of his heart that seemed to have been forgotten.

His eyes were red, and he stared fiercely at the four-wheeled carriage until the entire convoy disappeared from sight...

Suppressing the emotions in his heart, Chang Sun Chong ordered: "Go find out whose carriage it is, and where it is going."

"Here!"

The coachman responded, jumped off the shaft, and joined the crowd waiting to enter the city with a smile on his face, chatting.

Chang Sunyan also saw the carriage, glanced at the ugly Chang Sun Chong, thought for a while, and said, "This is Princess Changle's carriage... This four-wheeled carriage is very famous. A soft steel spring developed by the company has excellent shock absorption effect, and you can hardly feel the bumps when you sit in the car. There are only five cars in Chang'an City, one for the prince, one for the king of Wei, one for the princess of Changle, and one for the princess of Jinyang. The princess has one, and the Fang family has another."

Looking at the gloomy expression on Chang Sun Chong's face, Chang Sun Yan suddenly felt a burst of pleasure in his heart.

So what if you are trusted by your father?

So what if he was favored by His Majesty and Queen back then?

Even today, isn't it like a bereaved dog who can't see the light, and even the woman he loves abandons you?

He added: "There is no need to inquire. Princess Changle must go to Mount Zhongnan when she leaves the city. There are too many people entering and leaving the city at the Mingde Gate in the south of the city. It will take a long time to wait. Only the Chunming Gate has fewer people. She A Taoist temple was built in Zhongnan Mountain, and I often went to clean it up."

The eldest grandson made a dark face, snorted, and said, "Of course I know about this."

Although Lao and Yan are separated now, he has always felt that "one separation is not lenient", the market is paying attention to Princess Changle's movements, and even he himself can't tell whether he has no more love for Changle, or he is jealous...

Changsun Yan suppressed the sneer at the corner of his mouth, and continued: "...But brother probably doesn't know, there are rumors inside and outside Chang'an that Changle is just under the guise of Qingxiu, but in fact, that Taoist temple was originally the place where she and Fang Jun had a tryst... "

"fart!"

Changsun Chong's face was red, and he was furious. He stared at Changsun Yan and said, "Although I am at peace with Changle, I know that he is reserved, self-loving, pure and pure. It is absolutely impossible for him to have a secret tryst with others. Don't ruin Changle's reputation!"

He believed that Chang Le had an affair with Fang Jun, but he never believed that Chang Le would be so self-willed and depraved, that he would have a private tryst with his brother-in-law, and do such things.

Because he felt that if the two people really had an affair, it must have happened before Chang Le reconciled with him, and that would be a great shame...

Chang Sunyan looked innocent: "I didn't say that, it's spread throughout Chang'an now. Besides, the reason why my younger brother went to Zhongnan Mountain to beg Princess Changle to intercede with Fang Jun and let him go is because of the royal family. Everyone raised some points, and said that Princess Changle not only secretly communicated with Fang Jun and did things that were not easy, but also secretly gave birth to a son for Fang Jun..."
