Chapter 375 What are you going to do?
Chen Changan was a little anxious and knelt down to the emperor with a plop!
The expression on his face was extremely anxious, and he trembled slightly: "Your Majesty, I said the wrong thing, I said the wrong thing!"
"I want to know the news about Zhao Qingcheng in my dreams. Your Majesty, please grant me your permission!"
Chen Changan's face was full of pleading, and he was humble to the core.
The emperor snorted coldly and said through gritted teeth: "The Queen has already gone to Shangqing Palace. If you have nothing to do, hurry there too."
“Zhao Qingcheng… Haha, it’s not that easy to see you.”
Chen Chang'an was suddenly so confused that he didn't even care about the emperor and ran out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"Lao Ma, Lao Ma, pass on my order, bring a hundred reckless young men and head to Shangqing Palace quickly!"
Chen Changan said with a delighted look: "I want to go find my wife, quickly, quickly!"
Seeing Chen Chang'an acting like a madman, almost all the civil and military officials in the court were speechless.
There is still the most important thing that cannot be discussed. Chen Changan actually left?
Are national affairs more important, or are children’s personal affairs more important?
For Chen Changan, love affairs are of course more important. If he can't find Zhao Qingcheng, Chen Changan won't be able to eat!
If Chen Changan knew the news about Zhao Qingcheng from the emperor, how could he sit still?
Shangqing Palace, the only Taoist temple believed in by the emperor, is located on a green mountain a hundred miles away from Baidi.
Chen Changan was extremely anxious. The journey that would have taken two days was completed in just one day. He went up the stone steps and finally arrived in front of Shangqing Palace.
The vermilion gate is solemn and majestic, and the copper nails on the door sparkle with an ancient luster under the sunlight. The plaque above the gate has three large characters "Shangqing Palace" in vigorous and powerful style.
Entering the palace gate, what comes into view is a magnificent hall.
The flying eaves of the main hall stretch toward the sky like an eagle with its wings spread. The wind chimes on the eaves ring crisply in the wind, and the sound echoes among the mountains, as if conversing with the heaven and earth.
The glazed tiles on the roof of the hall are colorful in the sun, shining with a mysterious glow, as if the auspicious light of Taoism is enveloping the entire palace.
"Chang'an, everyone else who comes to Shangqing Palace is full of piety, but who is like you, bringing a young man with you, and still full of murderous intent?"
In the main hall, *** was sitting there, listening to the Taoist preaching.
She was wearing a Taoist robe, but it couldn't hide her eye-catching figure.
The collar of the Taoist robe was slightly open, revealing a small piece of snow-white skin. Every breath caused the subtle curve to tremble slightly.
His legs were covered by the hem of his Taoist robe, and with every step he took, he could feel the slight rhythm of his leg muscles beneath the robe.
Her waist is as slender as a willow branch in the wind and can be held in one hand.
I have to say that *** is also very beautiful, but Chen Changan didn't come for her.
"***, the emperor said that Zhao Qingcheng is here?"
He is obviously her husband, but he shows his love for another woman in front of her. *** naturally feels uncomfortable.
But there was no way, because Chen Changan had saved his life.
*** shook his head and took out a letter: "Father said that he had promised Zhao Qingcheng that he would never reveal her whereabouts. It was wrong to tell you about Shangqing Palace."
"He said this is the last clue he left for you."
"This old man is still playing these games with me!"
In desperation, Chen Changan gritted his teeth and said, "Who in the world dares to call the emperor 'old man'?"
But Xiang Liuli didn't say anything, just handed the letter to Chen Changan.
When I unfolded the letter, I saw two lines of powerful and bold characters on it.
"I walk alone in Shangqing to find my old friend, and the green shadows of the palace walls await your return."
Chen Changan was about to collapse: "Damn it, old man likes to guess riddles? With just these two lines of poetry, where can I find Qingcheng?"
"Play with me!"
*** shook his head gently: "It's not what you said."
"Firstly, Father has kept his promise to Zhao Qingcheng. Secondly... this Shangqing Palace is not as simple as it looks. It was built by Prince Jing'an. Do you understand?"
Chen Changan gritted his teeth and suddenly understood what the emperor meant.
He trapped Prince Jing'an in the palace and asked Chen Chang'an to find evidence of his conspiracy, so as to capture Prince Jing'an in one fell swoop.
The emperor's mind is indeed not that simple.
The emperor just guessed wrong about one thing. Chen Changan was so worried about Zhao Qingcheng that why would he care about Prince Jing'an?
I paced back and forth holding the two lines of poetry, and I remember my forehead was covered with sweat.
"I am alone in Shangqing looking for my old friend. There is nothing wrong with this no matter how you look at it!"
Chen Changan abandoned this sentence and looked at the sentence "The green shadows of the palace walls are waiting for your return", and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"I understand, I really understand!"
"The Emperor is clearly reminding me that Zhao Qingcheng is inside the palace wall. She is waiting for me inside the wall!"
"Old Ma, push all the palace walls and find my wife's whereabouts!"
Old Ma opened his mouth wide and kept shaking his head.
The Shangqing Palace covers a huge area and naturally has many palace walls. If you destroy all the walls, won't those Taoists kill you?
*** was also speechless, shook his head and said: "You are really smart... I also grew up in Shangqing Palace, so why can't you ask me?"
"***, do you know where Zhao Qingcheng is?" Chen Changan looked happy.
"I don't know." *** shook his head, but then added, "But I know where the palace wall mentioned in the letter is. Come with me."
*** took Chen Changan inside and pondered for a moment: "Chen Changan, can you tell me, where am I... compared to Zhao Qingcheng?"
"You are not bad in any way." Chen Changan shook his head and said.
"Liar."
***Of course I don’t believe these words, so why can’t I see you getting anxious?
"I'm not lying to you." Chen Changan said seriously, "Damn it, when I first met you, you wanted to hit me without asking any questions. At that time, I thought you were a little too cruel."
"However, as we met later, I realized that you had never come into contact with untouchables and did not know how to get along with us."
"Later, you risked your life to save me, and I recognized you."
Thinking of the past scenes with Chen Changan, *** felt helpless.
Chen Changan continued, "Zhao Qingcheng is different from you. She is just a young lady from a poor family and has experienced all the ups and downs since she was a child."
"He understands me, knows me, and never yells at me. He makes me feel at home."
"What's more, in that cave..."
Chen Changan didn't finish his words, but *** already understood what he meant.
"So, in your heart, Zhao Qingcheng is more important than me, right?"
"Maybe. I don't know."
Chen Changan answered this question very cleverly: "If you and Zhao Qingcheng fall into the water at the same time and only one can be saved, I will save you."
Chen Changan didn't finish his words.
After saving the girl, he went into the water and died with Zhao Qingcheng.
*** obviously didn't know what Chen Changan was thinking, and she bit her teeth gently: "You just know how to coax me."
Chen Changan shook his head and chuckled, without saying anything.
As he spoke, Xiang Liuli brought Chen Changan to the inner courtyard. The palace walls here were somewhat different from those outside.
Standing majestically, tall and solemn.
It displays a heavy sense of history with its calm tones, the glazed tiles gleam with a faint light, and the long palace walls stretch endlessly like a giant dragon guarding the palace, giving people a strong visual impact.
"This is the palace wall, built in imitation of the imperial palace. This is also where Zhao Qingcheng and I lived."
"The palace wall that Father mentioned should be here."
"Changan, what are you going to do?"
