Fighter of the Destiny
Chapter 57 Character Issues
Looking at this young man with a handsome face and a calm demeanor, Chen Changsheng saluted calmly, but his mood was not as calm as he appeared.
King Chenliu has royal blood and is naturally talented. However, he grew up in a deep palace since childhood. His status is too noble and he will not participate in the imperial examination. He has little chance to show his skills. However, the dean of Tiandaoyuan and the worshipers in the palace Everyone has said that with his level of strength, it was very easy to get into the elite list. Now he is over twenty years old, but as long as he is willing, there will definitely be a place for him on the golden list.
But the fact that he was able to gain the respect of important ministers and generals like Xu Shiji had nothing to do with the royal bloodline or realm strength. It was just because the Holy Queen treated him differently and kept him in Kyoto. This incident triggered countless conjectures - —Could it be said that the Holy Empress wanted him to succeed to the throne of the Zhou Dynasty?
Many people think this way, but the Tianhai family has been extremely arrogant in recent years. After all, King Chen Liu’s surname is Chen, and the Holy Queen has never had an obvious attitude. No one knows what role he will play in the future Zhou Dynasty, so in Kyoto People have mixed feelings towards him, respecting him but having to stay away.
As a divine general of the Zhou Dynasty, Xu Shiji was deeply trusted by the Holy Queen. Because he had made too many enemies in the court by suppressing the royal rebellion, he was more cautious towards King Chenliu, but he had to try to do something. , at least not to offend the other party.
He knew that King Chenliu was hosting the Ivy Banquet tonight on behalf of the Holy Queen and was responsible for receiving the southern envoys from afar. However, he did not expect that he would meet him outside the palace, and his words were reminding him of something intentionally or unintentionally. , to protect Chen Changsheng.
Xu Shiji confirmed that no one knew about the marriage contract between Chen Changsheng and his family, so the sudden appearance of His Highness Prince Chen Liu and his intention to protect him could only fall on the National Education Academy. This reminded him of the rumors that had been vaguely circulating in Kyoto recently, and he felt that Somewhat uneasy.
King Chen Liu glanced at Xu Shiji, then looked at Chen Changsheng and asked with a smile: "Do you need my help with anything?"
His voice was neither urgent nor slow, and his demeanor was gentle and approachable. It really felt like a spring breeze, making people feel warm and comfortable.
At the beginning, Chen Changsheng didn't understand the meaning of His Highness's words to protect him. After hearing those words, he understood. Now hearing the other party's gentle and sincere words, he felt even more grateful and said: " Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."
"You don't need to thank me. In fact, you kid has suffered a lot. We useless guys watching the scenery at the city gate should say sorry."
King Chen Liu looked at him and said with a smile, his words were casual but his tone was sincere.
If the city gate catches fire, only the fish in the pond will be affected.
If the old and new forces of the Great Zhou Dynasty had not stirred up trouble by re-enrolling students in the National Education College, Chen Changsheng was just an ordinary boy that no one knew about. How could he have been watched by everyone in Kyoto, and how could he have attracted so many people? trouble?
King Chen Liu didn't know the stories between Chen Changsheng and Dongyu Shenjiang's Mansion, and thought that Xu Shiji was causing trouble for him, which was also one of the many troubles mentioned in the above words. As a member of the royal family, he said to Chen Changsheng Saying sorry is a matter of course.
Of course, for a prince to apologize to an ordinary person like Chen Changsheng, it proves that he is really approachable, and in front of Xu Shiji, in the palace, he did not mince words about the conflict between the old royal family and the Holy Queen. , more elegant and unrestrained.
"Your Highness, you are welcome."
Chen Changsheng really liked His Highness the County Prince and said, "If there is anything I need to trouble Your Highness, I will tell you."
"Very good, I like this kind of temperament, and I'm not afraid of trouble."
King Chen Liu smiled and patted him on the shoulder, then walked into the palace, followed by guards in the night. Before leaving, he glanced at Xu Shiji, his eyes were calm and gentle, without any warning, but full of warning.
The soft light of the night pearl passes through the bright paper between the window frames and becomes a little unstable.
Xu Shiji's face was illuminated by the light and looked a little uncertain.
His Royal Highness King Chenliu left, but his words remained on the corridor in front of the palace, lingering in the night wind.
It was impossible for Xu Shiji to do anything to Chen Changsheng again, and he said with a frosty face: "You are very lucky."
Chen Changsheng thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because I have a good character."
After saying this, he laughed.
In the eyes of many people, Chen Changsheng is mature and steady beyond his age, because he has always behaved very calmly, rarely expressing joy or sorrow. When getting along with people he is not very close to, he only observes etiquette and does not even smile much. many.
But he was smiling happily at this time because he was in front of Xu Shiji.
Xu Shiji was also laughing, as if he thought the child's answer was funny and childish, but his smile was ugly.
After all, Weiyang Palace is not the main palace, nor is it the inner palace where the Holy Queen lives. There are some abandoned gardens a little further away. At this time, the night was dark, and a black sheep slowly walked out of the weeds in the abandoned garden. Its eyes reflected the starlight, and it was extremely eerie.
Xu Shiji looked at the night, raised his eyebrows slightly, said nothing more, and entered the hall with a roll of sleeves.
Chen Changsheng also saw the black sheep.
The black sheep looked at him quietly, then walked towards the outside of the palace. On the way, it stopped and looked back at him, as if it wanted to show him the way.
Chen Changsheng understood the meaning of this black sheep - it wanted him to leave the palace.
Although he couldn't talk, he vaguely felt and was convinced that this black sheep was kind to him. This might mean that tonight's events were not over. It was even possible that the real suffering or danger had just begun.
But he didn't go with it because he wanted to attend today's Ivy Banquet.
Until now, he had not thought about what he should do when the southern mission proposed marriage, but he wanted to see it with his own eyes.
Or when you see it, you will know what to do.
…
…
The black sheep disappeared into the night.
Chen Changsheng stood in the light outside the hall, thinking about the terrifying aura that Xu Shiji exuded before, and knew that it was very dangerous before.
Xu Shiji said that he was lucky because of the sudden appearance of His Highness King Chen Liu.
He replied: That may be because he has a good character.
Character means that there is no loss or loss of moral integrity.
Those who have gained the Tao will certainly be able to help more.
This is the truth he read in the three thousand volumes of Daozang.
He left Xining Town and came to Kyoto. He endured a lot of suppression, humiliation, and temptations, but there were also many people who helped him, such as the Bishop of the Cardinal Office, such as Reverend Xin, such as His Highness King Chenliu, including the one who disappeared into the night. A black sheep.
Why do these people want to help themselves? He is very clear-headed. It has nothing to do with character or morality. He should not bear some of the humiliation and pressure after coming to Beijing. He should not have received this help in the first place. Many things are just due to misunderstandings.
The engagement between him and Xu Yourong was known only to the Dong Yu Shen General Mansion and the big shot in the palace. No one else knew about it. He entered the National Education Academy and the humiliation and blow to him in the few months before Dong Yu Shen General Mansion. Many people think it has ulterior meaning.
The National Education College is a lake that no one comes to see, and there are many wild lotuses growing in it.
He was just a passerby who accidentally entered this abandoned lake. He wanted to row his boat to the other side of the lake, but when he started to paddle, he was startled by a group of gulls and herons.
Just as I was thinking about this, a shrill bird call suddenly came from the distant night, and then there was a faint sound of water splashing.
I don’t know if the night bird is hunting or being preyed upon.
Chen Changsheng turned around and looked at the dark night, feeling some warning signs in his heart.
At this moment, a voice sounded.
This sound came from the depths of the night, but it did not disperse into the night.
The sound came from deep inside the palace, but it did not spread among the halls.
The sound rang directly in his ears, and then fell directly on his heart.
The sound is crisp and moving, just like the taste of candied haws in winter, but more like the coldness of winter.
"Are you Chen Changsheng?"
There was silence all around. The sound of silk and bamboo in Weiyang Palace was very light after passing through the window paper. The sound of distant autumn wind blowing leaves passed through the wide square and was very light. The sound that directly rang in his heart was also very light, but Like thunder.
If an ordinary person suddenly heard a voice ringing in his heart, he would definitely be frightened and uneasy. However, Chen Changsheng had no reaction. He looked at the numerous palaces in the night, trying to find the location of the person who spoke.
He read Daozang thoroughly and knew that some powerful people in the Star Gathering Realm could easily transmit their voices to the ears of ordinary people.
"You are calmer than I thought, or are you dull?"
The voice sounded again.
"I just hope you're smarter than I thought."
There is a woman in the palace who has already reached the Star Gathering Realm at a young age. She does not care about the words that King Chen Liu left before. You can imagine how terrifying her power and position are. Her identity is already revealed. She is the one Chen Changsheng had thought of before. A big shot in the palace.
He looked at the numerous palaces in the night and calmly saluted, "I have met Miss Mo."
The voice disappeared for a moment, and it seemed that Chen Changsheng did not expect that Chen Changsheng could immediately think of who she was, or that he was not used to this title.
The owner of the voice is the legendary girl Mo Yu.
The second most powerful woman in the Zhou Dynasty, and possibly even the second most powerful person.
"You can call me Miss Mo Yu."
"Yes, Miss Mo."
For some reason, Chen Changsheng seemed a little stubborn tonight.
Maybe it was because he knew the reason for Mo Yu's sudden appearance.
"You are indeed a very smart boy."
"polite."
"These days, the situation in Kyoto has been turbulent, but you have been staying in seclusion at the National Education Academy. This is why I say you are smart."
"polite."
"It's just that this cleverness... seems a bit shameless."
"Please advise."
"You guessed Luoluo's identity, so you're hiding behind her. Isn't it shameless?"
"You arranged for me to enter the National Education College. You know that I just want to study and practice. I don't think so much."
"But you're still using her."
"That's what she meant."
"No man with enough courage would deceive such an innocent and innocent little girl."
"Have I ever deceived her?"
"If it weren't for deception, how could someone with her status come to be your disciple?"
After hearing this question, Chen Changsheng was silent for a while, then he looked into the depths of the night and said, "Maybe it's because I have a good character."
