Early the next morning, Song Chen and the others set off for Shangjing.
This time, although I haven't arrived in Shangjing yet and things haven't been dealt with yet, it can be considered a harvest for now.
Although Liu Ye's appearance made Song Chen a little more wary, overall he was still happy.
She still felt that the probability of time travel was not that high, and they should be the only two people here who had traveled through time.
Liu Ye's appearance seemed to be destined.
It is destined that she can gain everything she lacked in her previous life in this life.
From now on, she will definitely have a lot of contacts with Liu Ye.
**
The rest of their trip was not as relaxed and casual as before. From Beiguan Village to Shangjing, it was less than two hundred miles. Before they met Liu Ye, they had already walked dozens of miles leisurely.
If they set off now, they have already entered the territory of Shangjing. Although their whereabouts were very secretive when they came out this time, there is no guarantee that accidents will not happen, so Cang Xiuxuan and the others are always vigilant.
Hope to reach Shangjing in the shortest possible time.
When he arrived in Shangjing, he no longer worried. What he was worried about was that someone would attack him on the road.
Cang Xiuxuan's worry is not unreasonable. Although everyone is in danger when going to Beijing now, at the same time, the princes and princes are also as if they have been given blood.
King Heng was under house arrest, so they naturally hoped that there would be fewer brothers around them.
When all of them think like this, that's when the darkest tide surges. They dare not take any action in Shangjing for the time being, but they can definitely deal with those brothers who are not in Shangjing first.
Because Cang Xiuxuan was exiled before, their main target during this period was not Cang Xiuxuan, but the other brothers who were made kings.
In the royal family, the most important thing is sons.
An emperor has an entire harem, and the women in the harem are racking their brains to give birth to sons for the emperor, so that today the emperor has more than a dozen sons.
Before the emperor established a heir apparent, everyone was each other's enemy.
For the next hundred miles or so, they arrived in one day and entered Shangjing before the city gate closed.
Before entering the city, Cang Xiuxuan took out his human skin mask in front of Song Chen and disguised himself a little.
Song Chen looked at Cang Xiuxuan, whose appearance had changed greatly after just a few changes, and couldn't help but marvel, "Your skills are simply too good. It feels like you have a different head."
Although the current outline of Cang Xiuxuan's bones is still not much the same as before, he looks a bit unrecognizable after disguise. If he wasn't a very familiar person, he really wouldn't be able to recognize him.
Cang Xiuxuan smiled softly, "It's just a disguise."
He had seen Song Chen disguise himself before, and the method of disguise was quite novel.
Novel... Haha, if Song Chen knew Cang Xiuxuan's idea, he would not know how to laugh.
What's the name of her disguise? It's just makeup!
After the disguise, it is difficult to recognize Cang Xiuxuan as he was before. If he walked around Beijing with this appearance, few people would recognize him.
As they get closer to Shangjing, the atmosphere becomes more different.
Different from the relaxed atmosphere in Beiguan Village, there is a sense of tension throughout Shangjing, whether it is ordinary people or other people, this feeling is very obvious.
But Song Chen didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, this was also the largest capital city in Dayong. Just like a modern capital, it had a metropolitan rhythm of life.
It's just that she didn't feel this strong when she came before.
"I've already arranged my place to live. I have a pretty good house in Shangjing but it's not under my name. You should like it."
Cang Xiuxuan has now figured out Song Chen's preferences. Her requirements for a residence are neither too high nor too low.
As long as the whole layout looks right, she will like it very much.
The house he owned in Shangjing was left by his mother many years ago, and it has always been managed by someone her mother trusted.
Song Chen naturally had no objection. She still liked this kind of clearly arranged life without having to worry about it.
In fact, this can be regarded as a sense of trust given by Song Chen to Cang Xiuxuan. In Song Chen's heart, as long as Cang Xiuxuan does anything, she can be completely assured.
The house is not very remote, but it is far away from the gathering places of the powerful.
Cang Xiuxuan and his group walked struttingly down the street in Shangjing and walked into the house.
The concierge was still in a daze long after Cang Xiuxuan entered.
Seeing Cang Xiuxuan holding Song Chen's hand and looking at their backs, his eyes gradually turned red and the corners of his eyes became wet.
Their little master...is finally not alone.
Master, you can rest assured.
very nice!
There are not many servants in the house, but they are all left behind before Cang Xiuxuan's mother entered the palace. These people have stayed here loyally throughout their lives and have never had any thoughts.
Speaking of Cang Xiuxuan's mother, she was actually a strange woman at that time.
More than twenty years ago, she was in her golden years, that is, at Song Chen's age. At that time, she was full of talents, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was the most talented woman in Beijing.
Although her family background was not very good at that time, her talent alone attracted many people to propose marriage, and even caused a sensation in the entire capital the year she got her haircut.
It is precisely because of this that she was targeted by the current emperor.
The emperor at that time was not very old, less than thirty. He had stabilized the situation in the few years after inheriting the throne and devoted himself to filling his harem.
He has gathered all the charming, cute, sweet, virtuous and gentle people into his harem, but he is missing a cold and beautiful woman like Cang Xiuxuan's mother.
After hearing about Cang Xiuxuan's mother in Shangjing, the emperor left the palace incognito several times. He was considered a veteran in love, and he did not reveal his identity at the beginning.
Since she is a talented woman, he will also become a talented man.
As the current emperor, he has an advantage in this regard. During the years of his training, he was required to read many, many books.
When he met Cang Xiuxuan's mother, Cang Xiuxuan's mother happened to have a poem that was widely praised, so he found a new way.
When everyone was complimenting her, he found out the unreasonableness in the poem.
Cang Xiuxuan's mother is not the kind of person who is proud of her talent. After he raised this question, she really thought about it seriously and made some modifications.
The final effect was so stunning that she felt as if she had been sublimated.
After this meeting, Cang Xiuxuan's mother had not seen the emperor for a long time. Firstly, his status was not so casual, and secondly, he also deliberately wanted to whet her appetite.
He really knows how to attract women's attention.
Sure enough, the next time the emperor left the palace to find Cang Xiuxuan's mother, Cang Xiuxuan's mother recognized him at a glance.
"You are the same person as last time, right? I have changed everything you said last time. See how you are now?"
Cang Xiuxuan's mother took out the poems she had prepared and handed them to the emperor.
After finishing the revision, she had been waiting for this person to appear. After waiting for several days, there was no news, but she felt that it was impossible not to meet him again, so she wrote it down and put it in a purse.
.
At this moment, what she handed to the emperor was her purse.
The emperor lowered his eyes and looked at the purse in his hand. The embroidery was exquisite and the patterns were novel. It was obvious that she was really a very spiritual person.
"Girl, what do you mean?"
After receiving the purse, he turned it over several times and said, "Given the girl's talent, she should know that the red ribbon and brocade sachet represent the flowers' previous intentions and are given to Yu Lang diligently."
Cang Xiuxuan's mother immediately blushed because of what he said next. She didn't care much at the moment and quickly stepped forward and snatched her purse from his hand.
"I...I didn't mean that. What I contained here was poetry. Since you never showed up, I was worried that it would be broken, so I packed it in a wallet."
After explaining, Cang Xiuxuan's mother ran back.
The door closed with a "bang~" sound, and she leaned behind the door with a face so red it looked like it could bleed.
"It's worthless!" She cursed herself secretly.
Normally she is not such a reckless person, but what happened today? After seeing him, she forgot everything and threw her purse directly into someone else's hands.
Now he has indeed misunderstood.
Maybe he will still think that he is a frivolous woman!
Because of this, Cang Xiuxuan's mother was depressed for a long time, unable to leave the door without taking a step forward.
Ever since the Emperor briefly got along with Cang Xiuxuan's mother that day, he seemed to have discovered that she was not only amazingly talented but also very interesting.
I also miss her dearly.
It was just that during that time, no one below reported any news about her being outside to him.
It is said that he has not been out for a long time.
As a man and the most powerful man in this country, he would naturally not put all his thoughts on such a woman. He even thought that he could forget this woman.
He first wanted to have a talented woman in his harem, and she might not be the only one in the world.
Imagination is beautiful, but reality is not.
During that time, it was almost difficult for him to get her figure out of his mind. Even when he was around other women, he was thinking of her.
After two more days, he couldn't bear to leave the palace again.
And she had also adjusted her mentality during this period. She really had a good impression of that man. He was not like other people who only knew how to compliment her.
