There is no way to go, and there is no way to live. If there is a boat on the river, I would like to go with you. -----"Resentment" by Tang Li Bai
It is said that Chen Long asked himself that he could not ignore the life and death of Queen He. Although he knew that this trip was extremely dangerous, he still decided to visit Beigong at night. On that day when Queen He dedicated herself and the golden robe slowly slipped off, Zeng Yandao and Chen Long fell in love overnight because she fell in love with him at first sight. Chen Long deeply believed that it was Queen He's true feelings.
Taking advantage of the loopholes in Chun Yuqiong's surveillance network, Chen Long successfully made a good time difference and finally escaped to the safe house set up by Zhao Da by the Luo River before the inn was heavily surrounded. At night, we were familiar with the road, sneaked into the Nangong tunnel, and directly entered the underground of the Beigong. In the Beigong Tunnel, there was only an iron ring on the ceiling. Chen Long gritted his teeth and pulled down the iron ring. He only heard the sound of a golden bell ringing in his ears, which was eerie in the dark night.
Chen Long's hair stood up and he was about to run away. Suddenly, he heard three sounds of "Du Du Du Du" hitting the wooden board above the tunnel, and a gentle and joyful voice softly sounded: "Is this Wen Long underground?"
When Chen Long heard this strange yet familiar voice, he was overjoyed. He never expected that the exit was actually the bedroom of the queen's palace. He whispered through the ceiling: "Your Majesty, it's me!"
The ceiling was pulled up silently, revealing a small entrance, and a ladder fell down and landed in front of Chen Long. Chen Long didn't use the ladder. He hunched slightly, grabbed the edge of the entrance and stretched out his big head.
A touch of fragrant lips quickly sealed Chen Long's big mouth, and the two of them kissed each other passionately. Chen Long's feet did not touch the ground, and he relied entirely on his arms for support, but he did not feel any pain at all. He was only intoxicated by the extremely sweet and fragrant contact.
While he was lingering, there was suddenly a thin sound of clothes breaking in the wind, and it seemed that masters were sneaking up from all directions. Chen Long was startled, struggled to get rid of Queen He's fragrant lips and said: "Someone is coming!"
Queen He pushed Chen Long back into the tunnel, the ceiling slowly closed, and darkness returned to the tunnel. Chen Long only heard a high-pitched voice ringing outside the palace: "Your Majesty, you are a thousand years old. Just now, there seemed to be a golden bell alarm sound coming from outside the palace. Is there anything unusual?"
Queen He's graceful and steady voice slowly sounded out: "Attendant Bi Chang, just now I accidentally touched the golden bell, and there was nothing unusual. The other guards should also step back."
The sound of clothes breaking in the wind sounded again, and it seemed that the guards were all scattered. Chen Long heard the very faint sound of the clothes breaking through the wind, and felt trembling in his heart. These palace guards were indeed hiding dragons and crouching tigers. These people's light skills were probably as good as his own.
The entrance above the head slowly opened again. This time Chen Long jumped out and saw a dragon bed outside the entrance. Empress He hugged Chen Longxiong's waist tightly and said, "I knew that Wenlong had great magical powers and would definitely not abandon me."
Chen Long smiled and said, "How did you know it was me underground?"
The two of them spoke very carefully, biting each other's ears, and their ears and temples rubbed against each other for a while, which added to the excitement. Queen He said: "I could no longer think of anyone other than Wen Long who pulled the golden bell underground, so I guessed it right. I was afraid that Wen Long would run away in fright, so I blurted it out at that time. The mechanism here, if it weren't for the tunnel from here, Keep it in place, it can’t be opened from underneath the tunnel.”
Chen Long shook his head and said in amazement: "There is such a mechanism. Then how do you know how to open it?"
Queen He said: "This was originally the emperor's palace. I have slept here for a long time, and I saw Liu Hong crawling out of here drunk. At that time, he was showing off to me. How could I not know? But I have never gone down there. , and I don’t know where it leads.”
Chen Long said in surprise: "This is Liu Hong's bedroom? Then why are you the only one tonight?"
Queen He's eyes began to turn red, and she said: "I was kept here by Liu Hong, waiting for Liu Hong to come back for interrogation. He wanted to save the royal family's face, so he only asked people to monitor me secretly and not allow me to step out of the palace. He seems to have been here today. While he was busy arranging something, Wu Xia took care of me and is still waiting in the front hall to hear General Chunyu Qiong's report. I'm afraid that when he comes back, everything will be unpredictable."
Seeing that Queen He was still alive and kicking, Chen Long felt relieved and said: "He is waiting for Chun Yuqiong to offer my head on my neck. I came here today because I am afraid that you will be hurt by Liu Hong. I don't expect him to take action right away. , one is the eldest son Liu Bian inside, and the other is your brother He Jin outside."
Queen He's eyes flashed with confusion and she said: "My life is all that matters. Anyway, being cooped up in the palace is worse than death. It's better than missing Wen Long every day without seeing him. What I fear most is that he will grow up when he is young. , he originally favored Beauty Wang, and gave Liu Xie to Empress Dowager Dong to raise. He already had this intention, but it only hindered my face and He Jin's power. Now that he has caught me, I'm afraid he can really do it. "
Seeing that she was still thinking about Liu Bian's ascension to the throne, Chen Long couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, and said slowly: "If you want to depose the crown prince, you must first depose the queen, and I'm afraid Liu Hong will have to spend a lot of effort. I expect his first step is to find you. stubble."
"First of all, if he wants to depose you, he must have a justifiable reason to appease the ministers. Secondly, he needs to slowly weaken He Jin's strength and prevent He Jin from rebelling. All of this will take time."
Empress He sighed slightly and said: "Liu Hong was troubled at home and abroad, but he still drank too much and sang happily every night. He even... even made all the palace maids wear crotchless pants... Oh, I am really ashamed to say it. Tonight, Wen Long risked his life to save me. , I am already content. Now I just hope that Wenlong is safe and sound. No matter what happens to Bian'er and I, it is God's will."
Wenlong said sternly: "My queen, I have something that I need to tell you clearly. Even if I help Liu Bian ascend the throne in the future, it will only be to continue my political ideals, not to maintain Han unification."
Queen He opened her beautiful black and white eyes wide and stared at Chen Long. Chen Long continued: "The political ideal I work for is a world without imperial power, where officials and the people must treat each other as equals and engage in political and democratic consultation. In the future, the imperial power will be just a symbol, but without any special power. My power is also Such equality. Do you understand what I said?" These words were firm and righteous.
Queen He was extremely surprised at first, and then she was silent for a long time. Suddenly, a mysterious smile appeared on her lips and said: "Wenlong, although Liu Bian is my son, he was born to me and Liu Hong. Can you keep the symbol of imperial power for him?" , is his gospel. You are the love of my life, how can I refuse your ideal? It’s just that I don’t quite understand what you mean by political consultation. If I have the opportunity in the future, I would like to be by your side to listen to your details. Explain in detail.”
Chen Long felt a little relieved when he saw that Queen He did not object. His relationship with Queen He would not collapse immediately. Empress He said with deep affection: "Wenlong, you are not allowed to call me empress from now on, just call me Lingsi. The night is getting late, and although I want to spend more time with you, I am afraid that Liu Hong will come back at any time. You don't have to worry about my safety. Let’s go back to Lingling now.”
Chen Long pondered for a moment, remembering that even if Queen He survived this time, she would be insulted and poisoned to death by Dong Zhuo when Dong Zhuo came to Beijing in the future. He called Lingsi and told his plan: "Although I judge that Liu Hong will not take action against you right away, I still don't trust him. If Liu Hong wants to kill me, I will definitely get something in return. I am here today. Wait here for Liu Hong to come back."
Queen He was shocked and said: "Liu Hong is back? You...you want to kill the king?" After saying this, her whole body started to tremble, showing that she was very frightened. Although she hated Han Ling Emperor, Empress Dowager Dong and Wang Meiren, she never dared to think of assassinating Han Ling Emperor.
Chen Long's words just now made it clear that he would not help her maintain imperial power, and would only let Liu Bian retain the honorary title without actual power. Queen He was not stupid and knew that Chen Long would not be used by her to fight for power and gain. She was now at an absolute disadvantage in the palace fight and had little room for bargaining. I am afraid she could only give up her fight for power.
Chen Long shook his head first and then nodded: "I won't kill him for the time being. But he will become a semi-madman who has lost his short-term memory."
Queen He was surprised and scared at the same time. She felt a little inexplicable fear at Chen Long's unpredictability.
Chen Long's spiritual ears caught a trace of distant footsteps and continued: "I will hide behind the curtain for a while. When he comes back, I will take action. When Liu Hong wakes up tomorrow, I guarantee that he will forget everything this year. What happened." After saying that, he disappeared behind the curtain.
Queen He was uneasy and sat down to wait for Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty. The footsteps were getting closer and closer, but several young eunuchs accompanied Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty back. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty looked unhappy, and as soon as he entered the palace, he cursed: "This idiot Chunyu Qiong didn't even catch a human hair! "After that, he walked up to Queen He with eyebrows raised, grabbed her collar, lifted her up and said: "Bitch! Now you are happy! Your adulterer ran away very fast!" That's what I mean. Two mouths.
When the eunuchs saw that the emperor was furious, they closed the palace door and left far away, fearing that Chi Yu would be harmed. Queen He knew that a beating would be inevitable, so she had no choice but to lower her head and remain silent, preparing to endure the storm that was about to come.
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was about to vent his anger on Queen He, when he suddenly felt a suffocation in his throat, and a tall and handsome man suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was horrified, and he roared in fear: "Chen Long!" But he was silent. He felt that the man in front of him had his big hand on his throat, and he couldn't make a sound at all, let alone calling someone.
Chen Long's right hand strangled Emperor Han Ling's carotid artery, and tightened it tighter and tighter. The blood supply to Emperor Han Ling's brain gradually became insufficient. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty had a pair of turbid eyes, which first revealed extreme fear, then stared at Chen Long with cannibalistic anger, and finally the black eyes gradually disappeared and he rolled his eyes.
Queen He was the wife after all, so she was so frightened that she shrank aside. Chen Long counted the time and knew that irreversible damage had been done to Emperor Han Ling's cerebral cortex. As soon as he let go of his hand, Emperor Han Ling fell backwards. Chen Long caught him and placed him gently on the couch.
Queen He was so excited that she hid behind Chen Long, looked at Han Ling Emperor and said, "Is he, he, he, he, he, dead?"
Chen Long shook his head and said: "I'm the most measured in my approach. He won't wake up until tomorrow morning. After I leave, just have a good rest. How much he can remember tomorrow morning depends on his luck."
Queen He let out a heavy breath and said: "I'm scared to death! Wenlong, in this case, I can't keep you anymore. Chunyu Qiong might hunt you down tomorrow. Leave as soon as possible and escape as far away as possible!" "After saying that, she leaned forward and hugged Chen Long tightly in her arms.
Chen Long felt the softness and physical friction on Queen He's chest, looked down at her confused and helpless eyes, and sighed in his heart. When Queen He opened the secret compartment of the tunnel on the couch, before Chen Long jumped into the tunnel, he couldn't help but turn around and said to Queen He finally: "Lingsi, the desire for power is unlimited, and the harm of palace fighting is endless. You must always think of me today." My advice to you is to never get caught up in it." After saying that, he turned around and jumped into the deep darkness of the tunnel.
