Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3407 Houmo Chen's
Changsun Chong nodded, took a deep breath, and then suppressed the roiling anger in his chest.In the face of major events, you can't spoil the overall plan because of your own anger. After you're done, you have to go to Changle to ask a few questions, is the bitch really a wolf? !

However, although the anger was temporarily suppressed, but... really angry!

Now Chang Sun Chong finally understands why those eunuchs in history were sensitive, withdrawn and shadowy, and when the things they cared about most in their hearts could never be possessed, they were fiercely picked away with the tip of a knife. The pain is more cruel and embarrassing than death.

He sometimes even thinks that his father, regardless of his wealth and life, will push Jin Wang to the throne, instead of simply seeking to usurp the throne and ascend to that position himself, because he, the eldest son, is already inhumane, and it is impossible to continue the incense blood of the eldest grandson's family , so I had to reluctantly give up the ideal of owning the country...

This made his heart sting even more.

……

Send away Changsun Xu, ask the servant to help him disguise himself, put on a cloak and hat, and ride back to Chang'an City with more than ten soldiers.

After entering the city, Changsun Chong did not return to his mansion, but went straight to Yongyang Square, which is located in the southeast corner of Chang'an City.

A group of people easily entered the city, walked along the streets and alleys to Yongyang Fang, and came to the vicinity of Dazhuangyan Temple.Since the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Buddhist temples have been built in many lifangs in Chang'an City. These Buddhist temples are very popular and often occupy more than half of the lifangs.

In the wind and snow, the temple stands row upon row, although the place where it came from is a corner of the city, but in terms of scale, perhaps only the Da Ci'en Temple, which is under construction, can surely win, and the rest are not enough.

It was getting late at this time, and it was the evening class time. The melodious bells were wafting through the wind and snow. Chang Sun Chong led the people to a three-entry house separated by a wall from the Dazhuangyan Temple.

The guard with a horizontal knife in front of the door stepped forward, took the name card with the family emblem of the eldest grandson handed over by Changsun Chong, turned around and entered Tongbing, and returned after a while, respectfully inviting the eldest grandson to enter.

Chang Sun Chong threw the reins in his hands to the soldiers, entered the courtyard alone, and followed the guards leading the way to a courtyard in Dongkuayuan.

The place is simple and quiet, and the bells of the Dazhuangyan Temple separated by a wall, the blue bricks and black tiles, and the falling snow, made Chang Sun Chong, who was thinking about it, feel a sense of "meditation" and peace, and his mood suddenly calmed down...

The guard just made a "please" gesture, asking the eldest grandson to rush in, and then pressed his waist knife, standing straight in the wind and snow with his waist straight, without looking sideways.

Chang Sun rushed into the courtyard, came to the main hall door, adjusted his clothes a little, and then opened the door and entered.

There are candles burning in the hall, a faint scent of sandalwood fills the nose, the furnishings are simple, the ground dragon is burning on the clean floor, and an old man with white beard and hair is sitting on the futon, closing the curtain and recuperating.

Chang Sun Chong stepped forward lightly, knelt down on the futon in front of the old man, bowed his head respectfully, and said softly: "Chang Sun Chong is ordered by my father to come to see my uncle."

The old man opened his eyes only now, and glanced at Changsun Chong with a pair of dim eyes, then drooped his eyelids again, just said a faint "um", and said nothing more.

It seems that Chang Sun Chong, the criminal who committed the crime of treason, sneaked back to Chang'an, and he didn't feel the slightest surprise...

The old man's indifference made Chang Sun Chong feel no embarrassment, let alone any dissatisfaction. The old man in front of Gein can be regarded as the only remaining "ancestor" among the Guanlong clan.

Perhaps outsiders have never heard of the name "Hou Mo Chenqianhui", but within Guanlong, it is definitely an existence with outstanding prestige and high morals.His ancestor, Marquis Mo Chenchong, was the great general of the Northern Zhou Zhu Kingdom, who was gifted Situ after his death, one of the "Eight Pillar Kingdoms", who single-handedly participated in the creation of the current Guanlong noble group.His father, Hou Mo Chenying, made great military exploits. After entering the Sui Dynasty, he was highly regarded by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. He worshiped the governor of Guizhou and led the military affairs of the [-] prefectures, which shocked the south of Lingnan.

As far as Hou Mo and Chen Qianhui were concerned, although their meritorious service was not as good as that of their father and grandfather, they believed that they were senior and capable. They were always regarded as the core figures of Guanlong, with great prestige and great influence.

Even the eldest grandson Wuji, the "No. [-] Honored Minister of Zhenguan", must respectfully address him as "uncle" in person, and he must be consulted for his opinion when encountering important matters, otherwise, if Hou Mo and Chen Qian will not nod, half Guan Long The group may not be at the disposal of Changsun Wuji.

……

The hall is quiet, only the Qingyue bell of Dazhuangyan Temple, which is separated by a wall, can be heard faintly.The bells of the temple have their own rules, "Sound at dawn breaks the long night and wakes you up for sleep; strikes at dusk makes you feel dizzy and sleepless", twice a day, three times each time, 36 times each time.

After the Mu Drum had been beaten three times and one hundred and eight times, Hou Mo Chen Qianhui slowly opened his eyes, looked at Changsun Chong, and nodded slightly: "There is a calm heart, and things are not chaotic. ability, no wonder my father was able to entrust you with such a great task."

The eldest grandson hurriedly said humbly: "In front of my uncle, how dare the younger generation call the word 'capability'? The younger generation is stupid and lacks in talent. I hope the senior will not hesitate to teach and help."

"Ha ha."

Hou Mo and Chen Qianhui smiled calmly, and said: "Changsun Wuji gave birth to a good son, what a pity."

The sentence "it's a pity" makes this sentence sound like irony...

Changsun Chong's eyelids twitched, but he didn't say anything, but he felt a little dissatisfied in his heart.

I am "unfortunate", why not you?Thinking about the power and background of the Hou Mo Chen family, as well as the ability and prestige of the Hou Mo Chen Qianhui, if they were able to rise strongly at the end of the Sui Dynasty, perhaps there would be no such thing as the Changsun family.

It's a pity, but this man is a man who "doesn't love the country but loves the beauties". Because of the funeral of his beloved lonely queen, he handed over all his official positions and withdrew from all family affairs. Dazhuangyan Temple thought that after commemorating it, it lived in a hut outside the temple, with morning bells and evening drums, only to read Buddhist scriptures for the beloved woman and pray in front of the Buddha...

If not, what would the world look like today.

There was another silence, it seemed that Hou Mo Chenqian, who had lived in seclusion for many years, was not used to talking to people, and after a while he asked slowly: "Wuji's strategy is far better than mine, and I don't want to talk about the rest. , You can do whatever you want. The only thing is, how do you intend to break through the Xuanwu Gate?"

The Xuanwu Gate is the key to the Forbidden Palace. If you want to control the capital, you must control the Forbidden Palace. If you want to control the Forbidden Palace, you must break through the Xuanwu Gate... It can be seen that the Xuanwu Gate is important.

His Majesty Li Er's past events are a lesson for the past.

Changsun Chong said: "Chai Zhewei forgets righteousness when he sees profit and pursues power. As long as we rise up outside the city and get the response of private soldiers from various families in the city, Chai Zhewei will definitely not be left behind. As long as he responds with troops and captures Xuanwu Gate , then the city of Chang'an will come under our control!"

Hou Mo and Chen Qianhui's snow-white beauty frowned, and said strangely: "Outside the Xuanwu Gate, there are guards on the left and right. Even if Chai Zhewei raised troops to respond, there is still the guard on the right side, which belongs to the second boy of Fang Xuanling's family. The soldiers and horses of the direct line will definitely die in Baodong Palace, so you are so sure that the left guard can defeat the right guard and successfully capture the Xuanwu Gate?"

Changsun Chong despises him from the bottom of his heart, nesting in this mansion all day long, everyone in the world thinks it is a love interest, but in fact, isn't he always paying attention to the movements in Chang'an City?
He said: "Uncle, don't worry, the right guards are loyal to the East Palace, but Fang Jun took away a lot of elites this time, leaving only half of the right guards outside the Xuanwu gate, and the commander of the army is just a partial general As long as Chai Zhewei raises his troops and raids the Youtunwei barracks, it depends on the battle, so there is nothing to worry about."

Hou Mo and Chen Qian would shake his head slightly, noncommittal.

Seeing that he didn't believe his own judgment, Changsun Chong was a little dissatisfied, and said: "Even if something goes wrong with Chai Zhewei, and he fails to defeat the Right Tunwei and capture the Xuanwu Gate in time, some people in the clan will be impatient and want to take advantage of the fire to loot. The whole of Chang'an is in chaos, and with the strength of our families, we can completely sweep the whole city, help protect the country, and then support the king of Jin to ascend to the throne and achieve the feat of being a dragon!"

In his opinion, half of the Right Tunwei is absolutely unable to compete with the full-staffed Zuo Tunwei. Chai Zhewei is also a descendant of the general family. Surprise attack, is there any reason why it cannot be decided in one battle?
The most important thing is whether all the families in the city can unite and work together.As long as each family will not hide their thoughts and watch the fire from the other side, the situation will inevitably develop in the direction they have planned.

The key to making all the Guanlong families in the city work together without reservation is whether Hou Mo Chen Qianhui is willing to stand up and wave his arms.
