Chapter 198: Worship
Although it looks like an ordinary carriage from the outside, the interior decoration is still extravagant, and it is a consistent style. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
He Rong didn't say a word since he got into the carriage, leaned on the side wall and closed his eyes, completely ignoring Chu Yunsheng's existence, and Chu Yunsheng didn't have any interest in talking to him, and in the huge carriage, there was only the slight breathing sound of the two of them.
Walking all the way through the bustling streets and out of the city, He Rongcai moved his body and turned his head to look at Chu Yunsheng, who had also been silent since he entered the carriage.
She closed her eyes, her long eyelashes were like the wings of a butterfly, trembling slightly, as if sensing his attention, and the clear eyes that could see all the dirt and dirt in this world suddenly opened, but at that moment, He Rong only felt that the dim carriage suddenly brightened.
Chu Yunsheng opened his eyes, and was falling into He Rong's eyes, facing his inquiring eyes, Chu Yunsheng did not avoid it, and also looked at him.
They are all people who hide their minds deeply, they are all people who live in clouds and fog, and they are all people who are extremely sensitive and never want to hand over the word trust to others.
In the end, He Rongxian staggered his gaze, turned to the crepe on the side, and said in a deep voice: "I received news that the imperial grandson of Chu State did not get married as scheduled. ”
Hearing this, Chu Yunsheng was stunned in his heart, but he refused to show the slightest flaw on his face.
He Rong waited for her to ask, but he didn't expect her to say a word, he couldn't help but turn his eyes curiously, and fell on her cheek again, with an inquiring look in his eyes, and said with a smile: "You're not curious, what is the reason?"
Chu Yunsheng raised her hand to remove the crepe on the window in front of her, letting the spring light outside leak in, and finally found a little warmth, she raised her eyes, looked at He Rong, and said coldly: "Actually, I'm more curious, what is the purpose of King Zhao telling me this?"
Although she was curious in her heart, the news she got from He Rong at this time was somewhat true and some false, and she had to weigh it carefully.
"If I say that I want to see your jokes, to see you being played with and finally ruthlessly abandoned, would you believe it?"
He Rong's eyebrows were slightly raised, and the smile outlined at the corner of his mouth was extremely sarcastic.
Hearing this, Chu Yunsheng burst out laughing, her voice was crisp, like a silver bell, ringing in the fast-moving carriage: "Then you still go to great lengths to canonize me as a concubine, so aren't you picking up Su Jingxuan's abandoned woman?"
In this sentence, she said it bitterly and meanly, and she minded stepping on herself and became more and more sarcastic.
"Qin Yunjin, don't be ignorant!"
Sure enough, He Rong's mask of hypocrisy was once again torn apart by Chu Yunsheng's mockery.
"If I were to torture you, there would be a hundred ways to make your life worse than death. He Rong's voice was cold as if it came from the depths of hell, with a chilling chill.
However, for Chu Yunsheng, such words were not threatening at all, she raised her hand to prop up her body, approached He Rong a little, opened her eyes wide, and said word by word: "Sure enough, they are a pair of loving people, and even the threatening words they say are so similar to the queen's mother." ”
Hearing this, He Rong snorted coldly, and without looking at her again, the atmosphere in the carriage returned to the same condensed and quiet as before.
All the way to the foot of Puzhao Mountain.
Because Fahua Temple is a prestigious Buddhist place in the world, so usually, there is an endless stream of pilgrims who come and go to Puzhao Mountain where Fahua Temple is located, but recently it is different, because today there is a special ceremony for the first king of Zhao in Fahua Temple, so at the foot of the mountain, there are already royal forest guards there, and all irrelevant people are blocked outside.
However, what puzzled Chu Yunsheng was that He Rong did not enter through the mountain gate, their current carriage was parked at the foot of the back mountain, even if there were guards from the Royal Forest Army, but compared to the majesty in front, it was far from here.
Today, since he is doing things for Lao Zhao, it is reasonable and reasonable, He Rong should attend, but he is only wearing an ink-colored casual clothes, without any beads and jade embellishments on his body, and he is not like him in a simple way.
And also took her around the many retinues in front of the mountain gate and the hundred officials who came to worship, what is this going to do?
She was puzzled, but Chu Yunsheng showed calm and composure on her face, she followed He Rong out of the carriage, followed him without saying a word, and meandered up the bluestone steps in front of her.
Because it is a path, the bluestone slab steps are narrow, only the width of a person's shoulder, and there are smooth slopes on both sides, and the slopes are full of evergreen pines and cypresses.
I don't know if it rained last night, or because the mountain is dark and damp all year round, there is thick moss on the bluestone slabs, and the slopes on both sides are also very slippery.
Chu Yunsheng followed behind He Rong, and the two of them were silent, one after the other, and climbed up along the mountain road.
I couldn't help but guess the purpose of He Rong's trip, where he wanted to take her, and why he only took her alone, but seeing He Rong's tall and straight back like a pine and cypress walking in front, Chu Yunsheng couldn't guess it.
Until halfway up the mountainside, the pines and cypresses gradually receded, and the pear blossoms all over the mountains came to the face, at this time it was the season when the pear blossoms were in full bloom, the wind blew, and the heaven and earth were like a plain white pear blossom rain.
Chu Yunsheng climbed over a corner, his vision gradually widened, and he saw that pear blossoms were planted from the mountainside and the mountains that stretched for hundreds of miles nearby.
He Rong is not like Chu Yunsheng, his mind is focused on speculating and observing the surrounding scenery, so his steps are fast, and he has already opened a certain distance from Chu Yunsheng, seeing that Chu Yunsheng is still walking behind slowly, he frowned and said: "It's not early, if you don't want to spend the night in this mountain tonight, you can slow down." ”
Chu Yunsheng glared at him back, but his steps still sped up and followed.
If she wants to spend the night with He Rong in this mountain, thinking about it makes her feel goosebumps all over her body.
Seeing that when she heard this, the speed really increased, He Rong's eyes changed, and a trace of imperceptible loneliness was crossed.
The two walked for about a stick of incense, and when Chu Yunsheng began to pant and lose his physical strength, He Rong finally stopped in front of a wooden house.
Chu Yunsheng raised his eyes and looked at the wooden house, it was no different from the place where the hunters or villagers in the mountains rested, and was about to say something unusual, that is, the small wooden house was clean inside and out, it was too clean, and it really didn't look like a place for the hunters and villagers to rest temporarily.
It's a place where someone comes to clean and care for every day, and He Rong deliberately brought her here to meet whom?
I was puzzled in my heart, and I didn't wait for Chu Yunsheng to think about it, He Rong had already lifted his steps and walked towards a bluestone path on the edge of the wooden house, Chu Yunsheng had to follow, I don't know if it was her illusion, even if she was standing behind He Rong at this time and couldn't see his facial expression, his steps now seemed to be much heavier than usual.
The bluestone path leads to the back of the cabin, and behind that is a few depressions of vegetable fields, and there are still green vegetables planted in the field, just in the bottom of Chu Yunsheng's heart, he muttered in his heart who will live here, it seems that He Rong values it so much, and he suddenly saw a tomb next to the vegetable field.
At the first glance of the tomb, Chu Yunsheng suddenly remembered that he was alone, but he was not sure, because this idea was a little incredible.
But as she gradually walked in and saw clearly the inscription in front of the tomb clearly engraved with the words "Mother, Shen Liluo", she finally confirmed this guess.
After this suspicion was confirmed, she suddenly felt that her steps weighed like a thousand pounds.
If she remembered correctly, He Rong's mother was called Shen Liluo...... And today, the reason why He Rong asked those courtiers to arrange this ritual for King Zhao was that he was actually asking him to atone for his mother's concubine!
And why does it have to be today?!
There was already speculation and touching in his heart, but Chu Yunsheng still didn't ask again, but He Rong walked to the tombstone, knelt down in front of the owner of the tomb, and said in a gentle voice that he had never before: "Mother, I came to see you." ”
"I said that I must make sure that the person who killed you back then will not die well, you see, I have done it now, and today, the day of your death, I will come here with his coffin to confess to you!
At this moment, Chu Yunsheng's head roared, and there were only two words left...... Anniversary.
Today is actually the death day of He Rong's mother...... Many years ago today, his mother was ordered to be beaten to death by the man because she accidentally bumped into the picture scroll of Lao Zhao Wang depicting her mother's mother......
From then on, there was an additional young prince in Zhao's harem who had lost the protection of his mother, and the seeds of hatred began to take root in his heart from that moment.
However, He Rong didn't know that today was also a special day for Chu Yunsheng, she deliberately let herself not think of it, and deliberately let her head avoid this day, so as not to lose the strong strings that had been tightened since she was imprisoned in the palace by He Rong, but after He Rong said the word "death day", she still couldn't help but think of the other two words "birthday...... Today is her mother's birthday.
It turned out that back then, what made Lao Zhao so angry was not only because Concubine He Rong touched the scroll, but also because she touched his moldy head on this day.
Death day, birthday.
These two unrelated words, now put together, only make people feel ridiculous, sarcastic, and poignant!
It turned out that at that time, the life-and-death confrontation between her and He Rong was already doomed.
The wheel of fate has already turned, and it is only now that its original cruelty is truly revealed.
Chu Yunsheng froze in place, tears rolling in his eyes, but suddenly, he stubbornly raised his head and refused to drop the slightest.
And He Rong, who was standing in front of her, seemed to have completely forgotten that there was such a person as her, and he only knelt in front of the tomb, whispering to himself that the master in the tomb would never respond to him again.
Time passed slowly, and the winds with the smell of earth in the mountains and forests stirred the petals of the pear blossoms, as if they were silently complaining about something.
Chu Yunsheng turned around, not wanting to look at it again, however, the moment she turned around, she sensed that something was wrong!
The body that had just turned had not had time to turn back, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the tomb that was originally plain and unremarkable, and at the moment of the explosion, two cold rays crossed in it, directly forcing He Rongmian who had not yet recovered from his grief to come.
Although Chu Yunsheng was frightened, he also knew He Rong's skills and reactions, even if he reacted suddenly and quickly, it was no problem to avoid it with his skills, so she didn't move her steps, but only raised her hand and drew the soft sword that had never left her waist.
However, when he took the soft sword in his hand, he saw the two black shadows that broke through the tomb and carried the three-foot Qingfeng to He Rong's face in a blink of an eye, but He Rong seemed to have been immobilized by someone, standing motionless in place, unaware of the killing move that was close at hand.
Wrong!
Although she hated He Rong's father and son in her heart, at this time, she and He Rong's "puppet flower" witch Gu had not yet been solved, they were in the same vein, he couldn't die, not to mention, what she wanted to take revenge on him was not just as simple as taking his life and dying together.
Therefore, at the moment when he realized that He Rong was wrong, Chu Yunsheng had already burst out the internal force around him with a soft sword, and swept directly towards He Rong with light skills, and before he could get close, he had already slashed the two black-clothed people whose tips had reached He Rong's face!
And Chu Yunsheng's slash was fast, ruthless, accurate, and he used all his strength, before the two of them approached, they had already paved away with a strong wind mixed with whistling sounds, and their sword blades took a step forward, and they would definitely not be able to avoid Chu Yunsheng's sword qi, so the two of them had no choice at all, they could only use their toes in mid-air to be a little weak, and a longboard bridge dodged the sword qi that Chu Yunsheng rowed over.
And when they dodged, they naturally withdrew the two killing moves that were in front of He Rong.
When their bodies were about to be avoided and then slaughtered to make up for the second sword, Chu Yunsheng had already arrived at He Rong's side, she turned her eyes, and when she saw He Rong's face was pale, she raised her hand and pressed it on his wrist, and found that the pulse was beating very strangely, which was a sign of poisoning!
But how did these people poison him in such a short period of time?
I was puzzled in my heart, but the movements in my hands did not delay, Chu Yunsheng raised his hand to seal several acupoints of He Rong, and it was too late to show him what kind of poison he had been poisoned, she held He Rong's waist with one hand, and brought his entire body back, bringing out the range of the sword light of the two black-clothed people who followed closely, and raising his hand with the other hand was another sword qi strike.
The two men were forced to dodge in unison again.
At the moment when they avoided it, Chu Yunsheng's eyes inadvertently crossed the incense candle burning in front of the tomb, and finally understood, and quickly held his breath.
"Yes, he can see the problem, but he's not so lucky. A beautiful female voice sounded from behind, and Chu Yunsheng, who was half-hugging He Rong's body, was stunned.
The voice was familiar.
