218 Secrets
The abbot of Qingguang Temple received the news of the Pingxi Hou Mansion early in the morning, and knew that several young ladies were coming, so he had already prepared the Zen Temple.
As soon as the carriage of the Su family arrived at the mountain gate, a monk greeted him and led the carriage all the way to the back mountain.
After Cui Ling came to the Sheng Dynasty, he rarely went out, but the Huguo Temple in Shengjing City went to it a few times because of Yue'er's affairs.
Huguo Temple is the Shengchaoguo Temple, the construction place is majestic and solemn, very majestic.
But compared to this Qingguang Temple, it not only covers a vast area, but also the huge building is still slightly inferior.
She couldn't help but admire, "Wow, it's so big here!" β
Su Qian said proudly, "That's nature, Qingguang Mountain is the highest, largest and most steep mountain in Xiling, and the entire Qingguang Mountain is the territory of Qingguang Temple." β
She led the way at the front, "The abbot has a heart, and there is a large peach forest in front of the Zen courtyard arranged for us. β
Shi Xiaosi smiled bitterly at Cui Ling, "Fifth sister-in-law, I'll go exploring the road with Coriander first!" β
Since the marriage letter from Muyang Bofu was sent, he and Su Qian have passed the road clearly, Xiling is open to the people, and no one will talk nonsense when the fiancΓ© plays together, so he took advantage of this convenience to stick to her side all day long.
The more he got along, the more he discovered her wild heart from under Su Qian's beautiful and graceful appearance.
She was like a slippery loach, he thought he had caught her, but the next second he broke free from his grasp, and he didn't know where he went.
He always had to work tirelessly to keep up with her out-of-the-box train of thought.
She was so energetic, it was clear that he was a little exhausted, but he was fascinated again. Sink deeper and deeper.
Cui Ling won't disturb their little love. She hurriedly waved her hand. "You and Sister Qian go to play, don't worry about us."
She turned her head to the two sisters, Su Qiang and Su Wei, and said, "Let's go over and have a look first, and then you can go and play by yourself later, and I will take care of my little aunt." β
The peach blossoms of Qingguang Temple really bloomed early and well, and when you open the back door of the temple, you will be covered with pink.
The branches are pumping new greenery, decorating this March day with spring.
Su Qiang and Su Wei are both young girls. has never been such a twisted and restrained master, and when he saw such a beautiful scenery, he couldn't hold it back.
The two of them frolicked and walked towards the forest, when a silver bell-like laughter came, "Fifth sister-in-law, little aunt, you also come, this place is so beautiful and beautiful!" β
Cui Ling didn't dare to go into the forest, but when she thought that before leaving, Gorou told her that Pingxi Hou had already installed many guards and secret guards in Qingguang Mountain. As long as they don't go to secluded places, there is always someone who can protect them.
She also made a special observation. Sure enough, seeing that there were disguised people in ambush on the treetops and rooftops, he felt a little at ease, so he said to Su Jingyan with a smile, "Little aunt, let's go over and have a look." β
Su Jingyan was silent, but her eyes suddenly filled with tears when she looked at the peach forest.
Her lips trembled slightly, "Here...... I've been here before. β
Cui Ling was stunned for a moment, then understood, and wanted to continue to ask, but suddenly felt a little cruel.
Just as she hesitated, Su Jingyan said to herself, "I met Sheng Qian here." β
In the spring of that year, when the peach blossoms were red, she and her maid were admiring the plum blossoms at Qingguang Temple, and they passed by a young and handsome man of different races, and she remembered his face.
Since then, the dream has haunted me.
Fortunately, in the street market not long after, he was chased and beaten by someone.
She pulled out her sword and stepped forward to rescue him, arranging him to a secluded courtyard and giving him a safe environment.
There were also unforgettable moments, when he danced the sword under the moon, her piano sounded, and her eyes were full of love.
After getting along for a few months, I thought that he was as much as she had for him, but who would have expected that on the day he eloped and left Xiling City, he abandoned the Mandarin League and left first.
If you love deeply, you will fall deeply.
Now that the old place is revisited, it is like a different world, Su Jingyan suddenly woke up, but she was obsessed.
Cui Ling grabbed Su Jingyan's arm and said softly, "Little aunt, if you don't like it, let's go back to the Zen courtyard and stay." β
She smiled at her, "It's the same with the scenery in the Zen courtyard. β
In fact, she knew as early as when she first met Su Jingyan that this Aunt Su was not crazy at all, and she was not an idiot.
She's just drowning in the grief of the past.
As time passed, the sadness faded, the sorrow faded, and the shame of being betrayed disappeared, but she still couldn't get out, not because she still loved the negative man, nor because she couldn't see it.
But...... She didn't know what to do with it.
Therefore, at this moment, Cui Ling was not surprised at all when she heard Su Jingyan in a clear consciousness and clearly say that this place was where she and Sheng Qian first met.
She was just a little distressed, even if the healed wound was reappeared, it would be torn open, and it would still hurt.
Su Jingyan turned around and smiled at Cui Ling, "Yes...... Five nephews and daughters-in-law? I know you've got a good intention, but it doesn't matter. β
She spoke slowly and her voice was a little hoarse, but there was a lot of sincerity in her eyes.
After a pause, she continued, "Thank you these days! β
If it weren't for this woman who insisted on going her own way in her world, she didn't know if Lu Dao would wake up so quickly.
Perhaps, without Cui Ling's allocation, maybe she would have to sink for a negative man in this life.
Cui Ling laughed lightly, "I didn't do anything either. β
She asked with concern, "If the little aunt feels unwell, let's not continue walking, I like peach blossoms, and ask someone to break two branches and bring them back." β
Aunt Su's newly recovered sanity can't be broken again because of the touching of the scene.
But Su Jingyan stopped Cui Ling, she smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, I want to take a walk." β
Her lips pursed slightly, "You come with me." β
Only when you are willing to face it can you prove that you have really come out.
In the middle of the peach forest is a blue stone road, which is uneven because it is on the mountain. The mountain slopes down a bit.
Cui Ling pulled Aunt Su and walked down cautiously. He asked in a low voice. "Sheng Qian, what my aunt said, is that the person?"
Since Su Jingyan is willing to come out and face it, then she is not welcome, if she wants to know about the Tao, she has to ask.
Su Jingyan's expression was calm, and after ten years, she didn't have the same big reaction to the name as before.
Now. Sheng Qian, for her, was a mistake she made when she was young and frivolous.
Although this mistake has made her indulge in it for ten years, and she is ashamed of many family members who care about her and love her, but that's all.
Never, never.
She was silent for a moment and said, "You've heard of it. β
Su Jingyan turned around, her sallow face suddenly turned pale, "That's right, Sheng Qian is the man who broke the covenant and harmed me." β
Her voice calmed. It's like talking about an innocuous past.
"Sheng Qian is the son of the princess of Chongning and the king of the Western Regions of the previous dynasty, if his fate is smooth. Then at this time, he should sit in the royal court of the Western Regions, dressed in purple and gold robes, and become the prince of the Western Regions. But ......"
Su Jingyan's eyes drooped slightly, and she said in a low voice, "The Queen Mother of the Western Regions doesn't want a crown prince with the blood of the Sheng Dynasty to tarnish the royal blood of the Western Regions, so when Princess Chongning gave birth, she sent someone to strangle her grandson. β
She snorted coldly, "It's a pity, although Princess Chongning is weak, she has a few capable servants by her side, and they exchanged the tanuki for the prince and sent Sheng Qian out of the palace." β
Cui Ling was shocked in her heart, weren't these plots made up by her brain before?
I thought it was my own blood, but I didn't expect the reality to be so skinny!
She asked weakly, "So, when Sheng Qian came to Xiling ten years ago, did he want to ask the royal family of the Sheng Dynasty for help?" Does he want to take back what belongs to him and avenge Princess Chongning? β
Su Jingyan nodded slowly, but shook her head again, "He wants to, but where does he have such ability?" β
She smiled bitterly and said, "The Queen Mother knew that Sheng Qian was still alive, and on the one hand, she wanted to hide from the King of the Western Regions, and on the other hand, she spent a lot of energy and manpower to hunt him down, and chased him all the way to Xiling. It is already a miracle that he can survive, where can he still have the ability to meet the royal family? β
Cui Ling frowned, "The little aunt knows this, but she hasn't told her uncle?" β
It stands to reason that Sheng Qian met Su Jingyan and told her about these mysteries of his life experience, thinking that he wanted to use her as a ladder and tell the indescribable life experience to Pingxi Hou Zhiludao.
Although Pingxi Hou had nothing to do and entered Beijing, he sent a letter to the imperial palace, and Princess Chongning's grievances could be snowed.
This matter doesn't have to be so complicated in the first place.
Su Jingyan shook her head with a bitter face, "I just told my father that I got along with a boy of different races, and he was furious, where did he dare to tell him anything else?" β
She paused, and then said, "He has promised me, as long as he can be with me, he doesn't care about any suffering experience, any national hatred and family hatred, as long as the two of us are together, we will live some quiet and ordinary days in the future, and he won't do anything as the crown prince of the Western Regions!" β
Cui Ling didn't know what to say for a while.
She actually believed that what Sheng Qian said to Aunt Su at the beginning should be true, and he may have really had the idea of giving up revenge, because that incident was too difficult for him.
As long as he doesn't expect revenge or a comeback, and leaves here far away, the farther away from the Western Regions Country, then the safer he is.
It is not a good choice to live safely with the woman you love, have a few children, and live a simple life.
In this way, Sheng Qian left in a hurry at that time, and something must have happened again.
Cui Ling thought for a while and asked cautiously, "Little aunt, are you saying that it was the idea of the Queen Mother of the Western Regions to murder Princess Chongning and Sheng Qian, and the King of the Western Regions didn't know about this?" β
She paused, and then continued to ask, "The King of the Western Regions doesn't know that Princess Chongning gave birth to a male heir for him, and this child still survived and was sent out of the Western Regions Royal Court by a faithful servant?" He doesn't know what to do? β
Su Jingyan shook her head slightly, bit her lip for a while, and said, "That's what he said at the beginning." β
Her voice suddenly lowered, "He also said at the time that whether he contacted the King of the Western Regions or the Dasheng Royal Family, he might have a chance of surviving, otherwise if he fell into the hands of the Queen Mother of the Western Regions, he would definitely die." β
Cui Ling's eyes lit up, "I know what to do!" (To be continued......)
