Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 383 The Secret
Chang'an, Duke Zhao's Mansion.

"boom"

A white porcelain teacup fell to the ground and shattered.

Changsun Wuji stared angrily, the veins on his forehead protruded and snaked like green snakes, his well-maintained face was flushed red, and the beard under his chin was automatic without wind.

"You are an adult, and you have experienced a lot in the officialdom. How can you do such a stupid thing? The Turkic people don't know the etiquette, they have no loyalty, and it is commonplace to turn their faces and be ruthless. How can you fall into their hands? Trapped by it?"

Changsun Wuji was so heartbroken that he almost gritted his molars and growled in a low voice.

The eldest Sun Chong who stood in front of him was trembling, with his head down, hesitant to speak.

The eldest grandson Wuji had a kind of helplessness of hating iron but not steel. Looking at his frustrated son, he couldn't help wondering, is this still his bright and beautiful son?Acting so recklessly, without thinking about how serious the consequences will be!

Taking a deep breath, Changsun Wuji suppressed the anger in his heart, and said helplessly: "Could it be that you have forgotten that time seven years ago? Our eldest grandson's family is not afraid of doing wrong things. Even big mistakes can be made by parents." I'll bear it for you. But as the saying goes, knowing your mistakes can make a big difference, why do you make mistakes in the same place again and again? As a father, I am deeply disappointed!"

Use ten carts of refined iron to hire Turkic people to attack the Shenji camp at night?

Thank you for being able to figure it out!

It was naive to the extreme, not to mention Shenjiying and Fang Jun were not wiped out in one fell swoop, even if Fang Jun was wiped out, did they think they could get rid of the Turks?
Turkic people's brains are not enough, but they can't be regarded as gentlemen who keep their promises. If those barbarians blackmail you, they won't hesitate at all until they beat you to the bone and suck your marrow dry!

How can such a smart child be so confused?

Hearing his father talking about seven years ago, Chang Sun Chong bit his lips, a flash of violence flashed across his expression, and finally couldn't bear it anymore.

He can be beaten and scolded, but he just can't stand his father's expression of extreme disappointment!

Changsun Chong suddenly raised his head, looked at Changsun Wuji with bloodshot eyes, and roared in a low voice: "I just hate! I just refuse to accept! What is Fang Jun capable of? Why do both of them regard him as a pillar! My elder Sun Chong has been a corporal, diligent and courteous all these years, and has managed his duties in an orderly manner, but everyone thinks that this is what I should do. It is normal to do well, and if there is even the slightest omission, I will not be picky and blame. This is Why? I spent ten carts of fine iron to buy Tongyugu to send troops to attack Fang Jun at night, but there is no evidence, who can do anything to me? Moreover, I can guarantee that Fang Jun will never return to Chang'an alive! I want him to die ! Not only him, but even the crown prince, I want to drive him into the abyss of eternal doom, definitely not just with one leg..."

"Snapped!"

Changsun Wuji raised his hand and slapped his face hard, causing Changsun Chong to stagger, and said angrily: "Shut up for me! Some words will rot in your stomach for a lifetime, even if you are with your own father, don't give up!" You have to mention one more word! Otherwise, not only you, but the whole family will have to be implicated, so I will remember you!"

Changsun Chong covered his face, feeling a burning pain, but his mind became much clearer. Hearing this, he said in a panic, "Yes, father, the child will never dare again..."

Changsun Wuji's face was gloomy, he stood up, walked two steps in front of Changsun Chong and stood still, looked directly at Changsun Chong, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "You and the princess...do you have some unspeakable secrets?"

"No!" Changsun Chong's complexion changed, and he blurted out.

Afterwards, seeing that Changsun Wuji's face was still full of doubts, he had to say: "That Fang Jun wrote the song "Ai Lian Shuo", and the boy has now become the laughing stock of Chang'an, and even the princess's lust has been damaged. They want to bribe the Turkic people and put Fang Jun to death! As for the baby and the princess, there is no problem..."

Changsun Wuji shook his head.

In his whole life, when it comes to his achievements in politics, he can't compare to Fang Xuanling.But when it comes to trying to figure out people's hearts, the two Fang Xuanlings are not his opponents!
Judging from Chang Sun Chong's wandering eyes and guilty expression, his words are somewhat incomplete and untrue.

After thinking about it, Changsun Wuji finally asked: "But in my opinion, between you and the princess, there is more respect than admiration, more etiquette than intimacy, and it really deserves the metaphor of 'respecting each other as guests', but it is not like the recent one. husband and wife..."

Ordinarily, as a father, he should strictly abide by the rules and regulations, and would never discuss the relationship between husband and wife with his son in leisure time.But Changsun Wuji really couldn't help but want to ask. The young couple seem to be loving, but in fact they always give people a sense of alienation, which inevitably arouses suspicion.

The most important thing is that the two have been married for many years, but Lin'er has never been born...

This had to make Changsun Wuji suspicious.

Facing his father's scorching gaze, Changsun Chong turned pale and his heart was pounding.

Forced to squeeze out an awkward smile, he denied it: "Nothing...Father worried too much, the relationship between the child and the princess... has always been very good."

Changsun Wuji didn't believe it.

After pondering for a while, he decided: "You have been married to the princess for many years and have never had a child. After a few days, as a father, I asked His Majesty to accept a concubine for you. Having children and passing on the family line is the top priority. Your Majesty will not prejudice you because of this."

Changsun Chong couldn't laugh anymore, and said in a low voice, "This...isn't it necessary? The child and the princess have always had a good relationship, and what the father did will definitely make the princess sad. This... Besides, if there is something wrong with the princess' body, wouldn't it be It made her even more embarrassing..."

"You don't need to say much!"

Changsun Wuji interrupted him, and said coldly: "So what if it's embarrassing? If you can't carry on the lineage for my eldest grandson's family, it's just a memorial tablet. What's the use for it? Don't worry, if His Majesty punishes you for this, you will be your father." Go and plead with His Majesty..."

"Snapped"

A short, slight cracking sound came from outside the house.

The complexion of the father and son changed drastically, they were so frightened that they looked at each other subconsciously.If the words just now spread to His Majesty's ears, it would be a heinous crime!
Changsun Chong was fit and strong, he rushed to the door, opened the door, and saw a bird's nest spilled on the ground in the corridor next to the door, and the white porcelain soup bowl was shattered.

The eldest grandson rushed out, shouted at the servant who was guarding a foot away from the door, and asked, "Who came here just now?"

The servant was startled by Chang Sun Chong's ferocious face, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee, and said, "It was Her Royal Highness who brought you the bird's nest, but it accidentally dropped..."

"Where are people?" Changsun Chong asked urgently.

"Eh... already gone..."

It was Changsun Wuji who came out of the room and asked in a low voice, "Who is it?"

With a pale face, Chang Sun Chong said dully, "It's the princess..."

Changsun Wuji was also taken aback for a moment, with a gloomy expression, thinking about countermeasures.

I just don't know if the princess heard the conversation between father and son just now?If so, how much have you heard?
For a while, even the cunning and wise Changsun Wuji felt extremely difficult.

He wasn't afraid that the princess would hear what he said later, it just represented a father's concern for his children, even if His Majesty knew about it, it would only annoy His Majesty and it would not be a serious problem.

But if you heard the first half...

The eldest grandson took a deep breath: "Boy, go see the princess..."

"In any case, the princess must be held steady." Changsun Wuji said with a gloomy face.

"No! My child understands..." The eldest grandson rushed to the backyard with a bow.

*********
The embroidered building is dyed with fragrance, and the bead curtain is drooping.

In the bronze animal stove, sandalwood, fragrant tea from jade table, and brocade embroidered couch are burning. The warm autumn sun is cut to pieces by the phoenix trees outside the building, and pieces of yellowed leaves fall with the wind. Glass, showing the last poignant beauty...

Princess Changle stood quietly in front of the window, her clear eyes seemed to be chasing the falling leaves, but the gradually enveloping fog seemed to be out of focus.

The side face with a beautiful profile like a chiseled knife is as cold as a jade carving, without a trace of warmth.

Her delicate and slender body trembled slightly. Looking from a distance, she was thin and elegant, just like the fallen leaves flying outside the window, which were so beautiful and helpless...

"Deng deng deng"

There were hurried footsteps behind him.Chang Sun Chong caught up with Xiulou, took a deep breath, and shouted: "Princess..."

Princess Changle turned a deaf ear to it, and stood gracefully without any fluctuation in her expression.

The eldest grandson swallowed his saliva, took a few steps forward, stood behind Princess Changle, stared at the light down on the back of her slender and white neck, and said softly: "Princess, don't blame father, he is just impatient, you And don't worry, I won't follow my father's wishes to take a concubine, don't you understand my thoughts..."

He didn't know how much Princess Changle had heard, so he could only probe like this.

Princess Changle turned around slightly, staring at Changsun Chong with a pair of clear eyes, her beautiful face remained unmoved, but her two pink lips were slightly parted, and she said softly: "Your thoughts? The heart is in your belly, who is it? How can I know who's thinking?"

Changsun Chong frowned slightly, and then stretched it out again, and said with a smile: "Princess, this is embarrassing me...Could it be possible that I have to take it out and show it to the princess?"

In the past, this kind of frivolous love talk is what Princess Changle likes to hear the most.At this time, she would raise her eyebrows happily, purse her lips, and then use a slender jade finger like a spring onion to gently draw a circle on Changsun Chong's chest...

But today, she only felt a bone-chilling chill rising from the bottom of her heart, making her hairs stand out, as cold as bone marrow!

What is this person hiding in his mind?

Those devilish words sounded in my mind, it was unbelievable!
Letting out a sigh of relief, Princess Changle said lightly: "Later, I will move to live with my aunt, so you don't have to see me off."

In Chang Sun Chong's astonishment, her long eyelashes trembled and fell down to block the clear eyes, and the quiet voice seemed to Chang Sun Chong to be elusive as if floating in the sky: "In the future, I will not come back either. ..."
