Chapter 425: The Forbidden City is about to change!

Old Man Gu lay on the bed and sighed secretly, he listened to the words of his son Gu Tianpeng and Su Chen, and he wanted to turn a blind eye to some things, but Su Chen had a life-saving grace for him.

"Tianpeng, Su Chen is not a bad person, if he can help, just help him, it can be regarded as a love for him by our father. Old man Su and I also had some friendship back then, the Su family was jealous of the world and was not tolerated by the authorities, and finally excluded from the inner circle of the central government, but Su Zhen, as long as he did not die, it was a threat to everyone, and no one dared to act rashly and underestimate the Su family. Even if he is dead, Yu Wei is still there, and the Su family is a hundred-legged insect that is dead but not stiff. ”

Old Man Gu said lightly.

"I know, father, Su Chen is kind to our family, and I will never harm him."

Gu Tianpeng said.

"That's good, remember, don't go against the Su family, our Gu family doesn't have that strength, and don't get involved in the real core battle, just protect yourself, it's enough. Many people and things are not as simple as you think, before you have achieved fame, some people have already retired, what you know, or what you don't know, will become the biggest variable. If my expectations are correct, Su Chen will inevitably stir up the situation in the Forbidden City again, don't try to challenge anyone you can't grasp. This is my last piece of advice to you, Tianpeng, in two days, I want to go to Wutai Mountain to become a monk. ”

"Father, you-"

Gu Tianpeng was taken aback, as a well-known filial son in the entire Forbidden City, Old Man Gu's words obviously caught him by surprise.

"Don't persuade me, I've made up my mind. In this world, apart from you, I have nothing to be nostalgic for, and you have really grown up over the years, so it's time to let go, hehe, I'm also tired, I want to be quiet, and in my old age, I hope to enjoy my life in peace. ”

Old Man Gu waved his hand and motioned for Gu Tianpeng to go out.

"The wind and clouds, the ebb and flow, the game within the game, the chess within the chess, we are all just a puppet pulled by others."

Old Man Gu muttered, tightening the clothes and futons on the bed, the wind rose, and he seemed to have an ominous premonition, the wind and rain were coming, blowing the mountains and rivers.

The night is like a curtain, and rows of verdant pines and cypresses stand proudly in the cold wind, like well-trained guards, guardians of this sacred area, not violated by the outside world. The wind howled, rolling up snowflakes and fallen leaves, as if a group of demons were dancing.

In the eyes of the world, this Babao Mountain, which can only be buried in it after death, seems to have become a holy place for martyrs.

The waves wash the sand, the heroes of the ages, and the new generation replaces the old, but in this Babao Mountain, the glory and exploits of some people, even if it is a thousand years, cannot be erased. Coming here, Su Chen's heart was full of reverence, at the beginning, if it were not for these heroic martyrs who died on the battlefield with horse leather shrouds, Huaxia would have already become a colony of other countries, this is not a joke, but an indisputable fact. It's like the Great Wall, which was piled up with the blood and flesh of countless people in ancient times. The same is true today, without the bloodshed and sacrifice of so many predecessors, today's China has long been devastated. Su Chen is indeed unruly and arrogant, but he knows what is respectable and what should be hated.

When he arrived here, even his heart seemed to have been washed by the wind and snow, he did not have the fear and coldness in the eyes of ordinary people, and there was an inexplicable sadness in his heart.

Staring at the wind and snow, Su Chen walked slowly, it was a tomb located in the corner, with a row of bright red blood characters engraved on it: In memory of the beloved son who died young, Zhu Kuan. Obviously, this should be the inscription erected by Zhu Kuan's father. Su Chen saw that before the inscription, there was a fresh flower, more than a dozen lilies and daisies, and there were two shallow footprints, which were obviously left just now, someone, had been here, and, judging from the footprints, it was a woman.

"A generation of princes, died young, perhaps, I have to say, this is also a kind of sadness. Even if there is really your Zhu family's fault, I will not pursue it, because you are also victims. No matter how stormy you are in life, the world is invincible, and when you die, you will inevitably turn into a piece of loess. I don't know whether to respect you, or to be suspicious and hateful of you, my father, after all, he was framed with you, seeking the country, only a strategist would have such an idea, if it is the two of you who seek the country together, then the initiator must be you. ”

Su Chen's mood was a little complicated, looking at the tombstone that had obviously been swept away, and muttered.

"The past is the past, and it doesn't matter who is right and who is wrong. The deceased is gone, I came to see you today, it is also to fulfill one of my father's wishes, I think if he is still alive, he will not want me to remember all my hatred in your heart, I, Su Chen, am not the kind of indiscriminate person. ”

Su Chen knew who to blame now, it didn't matter anymore.

"Come out, actually, I should have guessed a long time ago, but I'm not sure, until today, I can finally be sure. If I can't even smell the perfume on your body, then I am not qualified to be with you, am I right, uncle? ”

Su Chen looked at the dark air in the distance and said lightly, he was sure that that person was Uncle Shi, Ling Wing Chun!

Ling Wing Chun did not continue to hide, she knew that with Su Chen's cleverness, it would definitely be impossible to hide it from him for the rest of his life, and this time he would return to the capital, he would definitely not continue to be silent, and it would be a matter of time before he knew his identity.

Ling Wing Chun was dressed in white, and in the bleak cold wind, her body looked a little thin, and her face was not haggard, but it was by no means more ruddy and glamorous when she was in Nanyang, and walked towards Su Chen step by step.

"I'm sorry."

Ling Wing Chun whispered, now she is not like the young woman who needed his protection at the beginning, but more like a queen who stands on the top and admires all beings, standing proudly and not with the world.

"There's nothing to be sorry for, I just didn't expect you to be that man's wife. Since you left Nanyang, I have already thought that this time your departure will definitely not be simple, but I didn't expect that we still came here, perhaps, this is fate. ”

Su Chen smiled lightly, saying that there was no bitterness, it was impossible, he didn't care who the man before Ling Wing Chun was, but he didn't expect it to be the crown prince Zhu Kuan back then. He was even a little irritable, but facts are facts after all, and no one can change them, if Su Chen gave up on her because of this, then he would not be Su Chen.

"Don't you think it's ridiculous? I didn't expect that the world is unpredictable, and there may be a lot of things between us that you don't know, but this qiē is all my fault, and I shouldn't have deceived you. I didn't expect that I would come back here one day, I thought that I would spend my whole life in Nanyang. ”

Ling Wing Chun's voice was still very low, but it was not as weak as Su Chen imagined, because she became stronger, which really made him uncomfortable. She is like a heartfelt queen, still a little unkind, even in the face of him.

But this qiē still happened. No one can change it, let alone me, more than twenty years ago, I didn't come to this world, hehe. ”

Su Chen smiled bitterly.

"Your father's death has nothing to do with Zhu Kuan."

Ling Wing Chun didn't want Su Chen to misunderstand Zhu Kuan, who had died, after all, he used to be her husband, even if he died, he was still the only person she had ever loved besides Su Chen.

"I know that even if there were, it was a thing of the past. When a person dies like a lamp goes out, I won't hold on to it. Originally, I didn't want to call you out, but I want to know, what happened when you returned to Beijing this time? You can stay in Nanyang for 20 years, but you have broken the oath you have adhered to for 20 years, there should be something very important. ”

Su Chen asked.

"The Ling family is in trouble, I have to go back, the capital, maybe the sky will change."

Ling Wing Chun looked at Orion in the night sky, and the snowflakes were vast, but they could be seen faintly.

"It's because of my grandfather, Su Tianting."

Su Chen said bluntly.

Ling Wing Chun's pupils constricted, and his face turned pale, how could he know? Could it be that he already knows everything about this qiē? Who told him about the grievances and hatreds back then?

"How do you know?"

Ling Wing Chun didn't want Su Chen to get involved, he was really strong, and he felt that this man was something she could rely on. However, who in the capital is too deep, and more than 20 years of grievances and hatred have passed, Su Zhen's death alone may be able to calm everything, so anyone is willing to see such an ending, but once Su Chen participates, it is tantamount to being an enemy of everyone in the world, once Su Zhen dies, many things will be over, the reason why no one dares to touch him for so many years is because of a promise made by Duke Deng back then, and the top secret hidden in him, even the big people in the central government are quite jealous.

"You should know, I know, I know that you don't want me to know, and you don't want me to get involved, even if it's my grandfather, but if it's your grandfather, your only relative in this world, will you choose to give up?"

Su Chen smiled and asked rhetorically, but the smile was a little indifferent, and Ling Wing Chun was speechless for a while. She found that she was actually quite selfish sometimes, Su Chen was the kind of person who would never rub sand in her eyes, but she made such a mistake. For a moment, her heart was trembling, and she was afraid that she would lose the courage and spiritual support she had the only one to live, because he was her only love.
