Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3441 Perceive the crisis
Although Li Yun's design was quite ingenious, absolutely no one could suspect them afterwards, but Chang Sun Yun still felt guilty and restless.

"You know this matter and I know it. Don't let it out. Otherwise, when my father returns to Chang'an, I will die without a place to bury him!"

The eldest grandson had a sullen face and repeatedly urged.

In recent years, the eldest grandson's family has experienced many ups and downs and bad luck. First, the six eldest grandsons died unexpectedly. To this day, it is still unknown who did it. Then, the elder brother committed the crime of treason and had to go into exile.Afterwards, the second brother killed himself in front of the mansion, which made his father very sad.Next, the third elder brother, Sun Jun, went into exile in the Western Regions, and died in a tragic way...

Although the eldest grandson's family has many sons, how can the father keep them if they die one by one?If it wasn't for his father's tenacity, such successive white-haired people sending black-haired people would have to send the old man himself away...

If his father finds out that he betrayed his elder brother behind his back, resulting in his being arrested and imprisoned, or even sentenced to severe punishment and decapitated, why not strangle him to death?

Anyway, so many sons have died, not less than his eldest grandson Xu...

Li Yun squinted at him, and said with a sneer, "Since you are so timid, why do you dare to do such a thing?"

The eldest grandson Xu sighed, rubbed his face, and said dejectedly: "Your Highness doesn't know what is the plotter behind the elder brother sneaking back to Chang'an this time."

Some things, even if they are as close as Jiang Wang Li Yun, he dare not reveal everything.

Chang Sun Chong sneaked back to Chang'an this time, although he didn't know his purpose, but he was not a fool. He only saw that Chang Sun Chong went to and from the various families of the Guanlong clan all day long, linking up with a group of generals from Guanlong, The whereabouts are mysterious and the purpose is strange, where can't guess how much?

Changsun Chong is very violent now, and his methods are vicious. If he is allowed to act recklessly, he will definitely drag the Changsun family into the abyss of eternal doom.He has been blinded by hatred and jealousy, and he only wants to turn over by extraordinary means. After the failure of Ping Rang City, he still thinks of overthrowing the East Palace through mutiny.

Regardless of success or failure, the eldest grandson's family will suffer great risks.

It's a pity that the eldest grandson sent someone to Liaodong privately, and sent several letters to his father, explaining what his elder brother did, and explaining the risks and consequences.

Changsun Xu can only use this method to stop Changsun Chong's stupid behavior. As long as Changsun Chong is arrested and imprisoned, no matter whether he lives or dies, without him as a bridge in the middle, the planned mutiny will inevitably die halfway, and a huge storm has not yet formed. , it stopped abruptly.

His eldest grandson Xu also killed his relatives for the sake of the family and the righteousness of the eldest grandson's clan. Presumably, after his father returned to Chang'an, he must be gratified because of his courage to take responsibility and decisive killing.

Even when seeing how hard it is for a few elder brothers to assume great positions, maybe he wants to be the successor of the patriarch...

When Li Yun heard this, he immediately pricked up his ears, and asked anxiously: "What is Brother Ling planning to make you report him even at the risk of infamy?"

The eldest grandson Xu just shook his head: "I don't know the details, but my elder brother's temperament has changed drastically, he is violent, and he doesn't consider the consequences of his actions. If he is allowed to act recklessly, wouldn't it be a drag on the family? I also had to do it. Don’t let it out, remember it.”

"Mother! This king has always been strict in tone and upright in character, okay?"

Li Yun scolded, but when he saw his eldest grandson, he resolutely refused to speak, and he didn't ask any more questions, but he felt that he was probably a little reckless this time.

According to the original plan, he should rush to Fang's house to report to Princess Gaoyang at this moment, informing her that Sun Chong has returned to Chang'an, intending to do harm to Princess Changle.In this way, you don't have to come forward to betray Changsun Chong, so as not to be hated by the Guanlong Clan afterwards, but you can also sell Fang Jun to save face, gain his favor, and add some bargaining chips for yourself to marry Fang Xiaomei...

But now it seems that this move is very inappropriate.

Seeing that the eldest grandson Xu would rather bear the reputation of betraying his brother, not to mention the risk of his father breaking his leg, but also want to report and expose the eldest grandson Chong, making his plan unsustainable and dying halfway, one knows that this matter must be extraordinary .

In case I ruined the important matter of the Guanlong Clan, those guys would pursue it relentlessly, how could the things I did through them be perfect?

This is the end of this matter, and it must not be mixed in any more.

Thinking of this, he secretly resented that Changsun Xu, a little sheep-like guy, played tricks on him and used himself as a knife, which is really hateful...

*****
Princess Changle and his party drove to open the gate of the city. After entering the city, they went straight to the Xingqing Palace. When they arrived at the gate of the palace, they handed over the badge with the seal and asked the guard in front of the gate to see His Highness the Crown Prince.

The imperial guards didn't dare to be negligent, and while inviting Princess Changle to wait in the entrance hall, they rushed in and informed the prince.

After a while, the imperial guard turned around, followed by a servant.Seeing Princess Changle, the servant quickly stepped forward, bowed and saluted and said: "I have seen Your Highness the Princess, and His Highness the Crown Prince is dealing with court affairs in the Nanxun Hall, please go and see her."

Princess Changle got up, took off the fox fur, and handed it to the maid at the side. She was dressed in palace attire and had a slim figure. She followed the maid out of the hall and headed for Nanxun Hall.

In the Nanxun Hall, Prince Li Chengqian was burying his case and reviewing the memorials. Princess Changle entered and saluted: "My sister has seen the prince's brother."

Only then did Li Chengqian put down the writing brush in his hand, and while rubbing his sore wrist, he came out from behind the desk, stepped forward to help Princess Changle up with his own hands, and said with a smile: "Why do you need to pay attention to these red tapes when there is no one in private? Get up quickly, Brother Wei has asked someone to make ginseng tea, drink a cup to warm up your body."

Princess Changle got up and smiled: "Thank you, Brother Prince."

Although the outside world has mixed praise and criticism for Li Chengqian, more people slander him for lack of talent, cowardly temperament, and not the appearance of a hero.But in the eyes of the brothers and sisters, the prince has always treated them generously, never tolerated harsh words, and cared for them in every possible way.

For such a prince, the hero who is wise, courageous and decisive is far too strong...

The two sat down, and Li Chengqian asked: "Isn't my sister practicing Taoism in Zhongnan Mountain? In this weather, the mountain road is difficult, why do you have to go to the city overnight? If there is an accident on the snowy road, it will be very bad. Your age You are not too young, you should pay more attention to such details, be calm when things happen, and don't be willful."

"Ah."

Princess Changle obediently responded, and seeing the prince's haggard face and bloodshot eyes, apparently busy with government affairs and rarely resting, she said softly: "Brother Prince, you should also pay attention to your health. The court affairs are never finished, and it's time to deal with this matter." There is another thing, endless. If the body is broken, who will help the father to relieve his worries?"

Li Chengqian's heart felt like being pricked by a needle, and a deep sadness came to his heart.

As the deputy commander of the army, how dare Li Ji hide the news of His Majesty Li Er's death from the prince?When the news was delivered to him, he felt like the sky was falling...

It is true that the position of the crown prince has been turbulent several times in recent years, and he was even close to being deposed at one point, which made it impossible for Li Chengqian not to breed resentment in his heart, but he absolutely did not want to see his father have an accident.In the final analysis, this world belongs to my father, and he can give it to whoever he wants.

Li Chengqian's resentment was probably because he was ashamed and ashamed. He felt that he was the eldest son of his father and naturally occupied the position of prince, but he didn't have the corresponding ability...

But right now, the news of his father's death must not be leaked, otherwise the country will be in shambles and the country will collapse, and he will absolutely not be able to bear the consequences.

Qiang Zi suppressed the grief in his heart, shook his head slowly, and said: "The situation is unstable now, so Gu can't slack off naturally. The emperor granted Gu the power to supervise the country. It is not only power, but also a responsibility. I dare not go all out."

Speaking of this, he changed the topic and asked curiously: "After talking for a long time, you came to the city at night to have an audience. What is the matter?"

Princess Changle's face was tense, and she said in a clear voice: "Changsun Chongqian has returned to Chang'an!"

"what?!"

Li Chengqian was startled immediately, and hurriedly asked: "How do you know?"

Princess Changle told the story of Changsun Chong's disguised appearance and going to Zhongnan Mountain to meet her not long ago. Finally, she gritted her teeth and said, "This person is really hateful. He actually set up an ambush halfway to hijack me. He really is a wolf!"

She was furious, but Li Chengqian was shocked.

According to the battle report sent back from Liaodong, the eldest Sun Chong had been in Pingrang City before, lurking beside Yuan Gai Su Wen, as the "dead room" of the Tang Dynasty, but failed in the end, and was killed by Yuan Gai Su when he opened the Seven Star Gate Wen found out, and then resorted to tricks, causing thousands of Tang troops to be trapped in the city and massacred.

After that, Changsun Chong seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no trace of him.

Who would have expected this person to sneak back to Chang'an again the next time he showed up?

The Seven Stars Sect is on the verge of failure, the Eastern Expedition fails and returns, the father dies in the army, and the eldest Sun Chong sneaks back to Chang'an mysteriously...

Li Chengqian decisively said to the servant outside the door: "Invite General Li Junxian here quickly, I have something important to ask in detail!"
