Chapter 239: Something Isn't Right
Chu Yunsheng watched Su Jingxuan walk down the alleys and climb over the walls with his familiar paths, and couldn't help but exclaim: "It seems that His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun often walks?"
Hearing this, Su Jingxuan raised his eyes and smiled: "Uncle Xiao Wang has not been in good health all these years, and every time I leave the palace, I don't want to bring so many entourages to attract attention, so I often sneak in in the side courtyard with slight obedience."

When he said this, he had already arrived outside the side gate of King Chen's Mansion, Su Jingxuan raised his hand and pointed at Chu Yunsheng, then raised his hand to hold her waist, and the two of them crossed the wall.
Su Zongchen was happy to be quiet, so there were very few people in the palace, Su Jingshuo took Chu Yunsheng all the way through the two courtyards unimpeded, and finally stopped at a place where the plaque said "Tingfang Courtyard".
Climbed the wall again, Su Jingshuo sat down on the wall with Chu Yunsheng in his arms, and looked at the courtyard, the houses in the courtyard were elegant, the bamboo rockery was extremely elegant, and there was a pool of lotus flowers, which was about to enter summer, and at that time there were sharp leaf horns rushing out, but there was no person in the courtyard who was looking for him, Su Jingshuo couldn't help but let out a curious "Huh".
Chu Yunsheng tugged at the hem of his sleeve and said softly, "Could it be that we are thinking wrong, Mr. Su is really not here?"
Su Jingxuan shook his head and said: "But I always feel that something is wrong, Uncle Xiao Wang will cook tea, paint and read books in this Tingfang Courtyard on weekdays, and even rest in the wing room of this courtyard, but it stands to reason that if he is not here, he may really not be in the house, but today is neither a special day, nor the fifteenth day of the new year, plus his body is already weak, it is unlikely that he will go to Baiyun Temple, and Zhusheng's expression just now is unnatural." β
Baiyunguan Chu Yunsheng has probably heard of it, but it seems to be a nunnery, just heard Zhusheng say this, she didn't pay attention to it, and then heard Su Jingxuan mention it again, she couldn't help but be curious: "What is Mr. Su doing in Baiyunguan?"
Hearing this, a trace of amazement crossed Su Jingxuan's face, and he sighed lightly and said, "Uncle Wang's mother, Liu Guifei, went to Baiyun Temple to practice a few years ago on the grounds that King Chu was praying for blessings. β
"What?" Chu Yunsheng had never heard Su Zongchen talk about his mother, and all she knew was that Su Jingxuan had been raised in Concubine Liu's palace to eat and live with Su Zongchen until she was four years old, but she never thought that Concubine Liu actually chose to stay away from Hongchen and invited herself to Baiyun Temple.
Being in the position of a harem concubine, and having an heir, she enjoys endless glory and wealth, but she chooses to retire from the red dust and stay away from the chaos at the most glorious time, what kind of enlightenment is this.
"Hmm. β
Su Jingshuo nodded, and was about to say something, but saw Zhusheng walking over from the cobblestone path not far away with a bunch of scrolls, and when he saw them, he was startled, and hurriedly saluted: "Zhusheng has seen His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun." β
Seeing this, Su Jingxuan simply hugged Chu Yunsheng and rolled down from the wall, walked up to Zhusheng and said, "Honestly, where did your master go?"
Su Jingshuo usually treats people very gently, but once he is in a positive tone, his whole body seems to be shrouded by a layer of non-anger and self-authority, which makes people not have the slightest intention of resisting, and just wants to surrender to such a king's anger.
Zhusheng was stunned, and a look of confusion appeared on his face: " I also ask His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun to forgive his sins, Zhusheng really doesn't know where my grandfather went, when he went out, he said that he wanted to go to Baiyun Temple alone, and he didn't say when he would come back, I didn't worry about wanting to follow, but he refused, and also left a message saying that His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun and Miss Ah Sheng should not worry, he is fine, he seems to have expected you to come back early in the morning, so I am very worried, when His Royal Highness and the girl just came, I was afraid that something would happen to my grandfather, so I was a little flustered. β
Hearing this, Su Jingshuo didn't embarrass Zhusheng anymore, but only told him to wait for Su Zongchen to come back and remember to report to him, and left King Chen's mansion with Chu Yunsheng.
All the way out of the alley, Su Jingshuo said, "Ah Sheng, do you think there is anything wrong?"
Chu Yunsheng also echoed and said: "How could Mr. Su go to Baiyun Temple without taking anyone with him, do you say that he will have something to do, I am afraid that you will be worried, so I don't want you to know, so I didn't even bring Zhusheng?"
Su Jingxuan nodded, and walked with Chu Yunsheng as he said, "I will leave someone to keep an eye on the movements of King Chen's Mansion at all times, and I will report back as soon as there is news, but I will ...... tomorrow."
Speaking of this, the steps under his feet paused, and a trace of gloom crossed his face, and before Chu Yunsheng could think about it, he had already raised his eyes, looked at her and said: "According to the ancestral system, tomorrow I will help the prince's coffin to go to the ancestral tomb, and I will not be able to rush back until the afternoon of the day after tomorrow at the earliest. β
It turned out to be for the prince's business, no wonder Su Jingxuan's face was still a little more natural when he mentioned this, Chu Yunsheng saw through it and nodded: "Okay, you can go with confidence, and in the palace, once King Chu wakes up and has news, I will also send it to you quickly." β
In fact, after calming down in the past two days, Chu Yunsheng also thought of a point, although the crown prince Su Zongren was not Su Jingxuan's biological father...... But he still has feelings for the child born to this woman he loves the most, otherwise, if he really wants to kill Ah Shuo in every possible way, with his forbearance and means, he will not let Ah Shuo live safely for so many years, he hates him and wants to kill him, but on the other hand, he also has a trace of reluctance, otherwise, that day in Linlang Mountain, he can let Chu Yunting and them blow up the mountain at the same time, and let Su Jingxuan's unguarded Hua Wu go to the killer, I believe that if it is really like this, if it is really like this, the current scene is a different sceneγ
He is such a contradictory person, and he believes this, and Ah Shuo can already think of it.
He killed Yuanfu Manmen, killed Lin Yeshuang, and caused irreparable damage to Ah Shuo, Chu Yunsheng hated him to the bone, but he also had to admit that he was also a very pitiful and pathetic person.
Thinking of this, Chu Yunsheng only felt that his mood became very heavy in an instant, like a boulder pressing on the top, seeing Su Jingxuan nodded, she immediately changed the topic and said, "Let's go buy osmanthus cakes, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to Brother Dumb." β
Hearing this, Su Jingxuan smiled slightly, and didn't say anything anymore.
The stars are changing, there is nothing that cannot be let go, even if it is hatred, coldness, cruelty and even ruthlessness and unbearable, but after that person dies, everything should return to the original point, and he should continue to look forward.
He is Su Jingxuan, there is no difference between now and in the past, it doesn't matter who his biological father is, he is him.
Thinking of this, he seemed to have unloaded the boulder in his heart in an instant, and felt that his breathing was not only much smoother, but even the blue sky and white clouds were more vast and lofty than usual, the corners of his lips moved slightly, and he subconsciously clenched the woman's Qianqian Su hand and said: "Then we have to go faster, the osmanthus candy in the crisp memory will be sold out very early!"
*******
When they turned out and went to the alley for a long time, a cyan figure turned out from the side door of King Chen's Mansion, but it flashed and quickly disappeared into the corner of the side door.
And that person was none other than Zhusheng, who had just been questioned and suspected by Su Jingxuan.
"Master, why don't you see them?"
Sure that they would not turn back again, Zhu Sheng returned to the study of Tingfang Courtyard, opened the dark compartment at the back, and helped Su Zongchen, who had been hiding in it just now, out and sat down on the couch outside.
Su Zongchen waved his hand, did not answer Zhusheng's question, he raised his eyes to look at the location of Su Jingxuan and Chu Yunsheng on the courtyard wall just now, a little distracted, after a long time, he said: "I should indeed go to Baiyun to watch and prepare the car." β
*********
These small episodes that happened in Tingfang Courtyard Chu Yunsheng and Su Jingxuan naturally didn't know, the two of them went to Suji together, bought the best osmanthus candy, and when they returned to the palace, the sky was gradually darkening.
Su Jingxuan sent Chu Yunsheng back to Shangyang Palace, then turned around and went to the East Palace, according to the ancestral system, he should keep vigil in front of the prince's spirit tonight.
Chu Yunsheng went back to the room with the osmanthus cake, and only then walked to the door, not surprisingly, the green clothes of the sky and water had already swept in front of her.
Chu Yunsheng hurriedly flattered the purchased osmanthus cake with both hands, seeing this, Brother Dumb was not polite, raised his hand and waved it, and rolled it in his hand, and disappeared in a blink of an eye, Chu Yunsheng could only look at the empty two palms and cry and laugh.
She went back to her room, took a bowl of medicine to regulate internal breathing, and meditated cross-legged for a while, feeling that the pain in her heart had weakened a little, but her spirit was already extremely sleepy, so she didn't even eat dinner, and fell asleep.
This sleep was also extraordinarily heavy, and when she woke up, it was already three poles the next day.
The little palace maid who was waiting on the side saw her wake up, and hurriedly washed her face and brought the plain clothes that she was about to change.
Chu Yunsheng rubbed his temples that were a little sore, and said in a spirited manner: "Has His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun already set off?"
Hearing this, the nearest little palace maid dressed herself and said, "Back girl, His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun and his entourage have left the palace early in the morning." β
"Oh. β
Chu Yunsheng responded lightly, and let the palace maids dress up for themselves, only to feel that the Chu Palace after Su Jingxuan left was not angry at all, even if he knew that he would come back tomorrow, it was only a short two days away, but she just couldn't lift her spirits, so she was already thinking about him.
"Girl, girl......"
Chu Yunsheng put on his clothes and walked out of the room, when he heard a slender voice of a little eunuch trotting in from the outer courtyard, and when he saw her, his face was happy, and he immediately knelt down and said, "Girl, Your Majesty is awake." β
Hearing this, Chu Yunsheng was about to step out of the threshold for a moment, and immediately came to his senses.
