(I recommend a friend's fantasy novel. It's said to be rather similar in style to Heaven Choosing Records. The title of the book is' The Divine Gate ', and the author is Xin Yi. If everyone likes it, they can take a look!)

The words' responsibility 'and' the distance 'were from Chen Changsheng's heart, but they did not just exist in his heart.
As he thought of these things, he also said them.
An Hua did not particularly understand what he meant, but knowing that he would not leave made her much happier.
At this moment, Tang Thirty-Six walked out of the hall, rubbing his drowsy eyes.
An Hua saw that there was something wrong with his gaze. After a moment of hesitation, she softly said, "Young Master Tang, this is not appropriate."
The Pope's palace was naturally not a place that just anyone could enter, much less sleep here.
If he encountered those old-fashioned priests who enforced the law, they might even charge Tang Thirty-Six with disrespect.
Tang Thirty-Six shook his head. "Relax, I'll never sleep on such a hard stone bed again."
After a simple wash, several simple plates of food were placed on the plain square table.
Tang Thirty-Six gazed at the plain porridge and side dishes and very naturally recalled his meeting with Chen Changsheng in the Plum Garden Inn, and then he recalled the pitiful and tasteless food that Xuanyuan Po had made in the early days of the Orthodox Academy. He couldn't help but sigh and put down his chopsticks.
Perhaps he had stopped eating because the food was not good enough, or perhaps his mood was not good enough, like he was worrying about something.
He looked into Chen Changsheng's eyes and asked, "You still haven't answered my question from yesterday."
Chen Changsheng ignored him and continued to eat his breakfast.
Tang Thirty-Six continued to stare at him.
After some time, Chen Changsheng finally finished his meal. Putting down his bowl and chopsticks, he took the wet towel An Hua handed him and carefully wiped his face and hands twice. He then took a sip of the precious rock tea in his cup and spat it back into the copper plate.
Tang Thirty-Six clicked his tongue at this sight, his voice filled with indescribable mockery.
Chen Changsheng said, "This sort of sound really shouldn't come from your mouth."
Tang Thirty-Six was born into a wealthy family and had lived a life of luxury that a normal person would find hard to imagine. Even the Princess of Ping in the palace probably could not compare to him in this aspect. Even if he wanted to mock Chen Changsheng's lifestyle as Pope, it was not his place to speak.
"Why do I feel like you want to say that a dog's mouth can't spit ivory?"
Chen Chang Sheng said seriously, "You misunderstood."
Tang Thirty-Six felt helpless and said, "Can you tell me now?"
Chen Changsheng asked, "You Rong and Prince Chen Liu have known each other since childhood in the palace. It's rare for her to return to the capital, so it's normal for her to arrange a meeting."
Tang Thirty-Six said, "I have reminded you many times to be wary of Prince Chen Liu."
In the past few years of living in the capital, Prince Chen Liu had given Chen Chang Sheng and the Tradition Academy a lot of help and the most precious kindness in the early days. Therefore, Chen Chang Sheng had a very good impression of this noble grandson of the royal family. Moreover, he couldn't think of any reason for Prince Chen Liu to target him.
But now it seemed that the reason was sufficient.
Because he might become the crown prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
If Yuren died.
Chen Chang Sheng understood Tang Thirty Six's caution and uneasiness.
But how could Master let something happen to Senior Brother?
"You should be able to guess why Xu You Rong entered the Imperial Palace last night. As long as Shang Xingzhou becomes suspicious, the situation will naturally become chaotic. "
Tang Thirty Six used the most direct words to destroy the calmness that Chen Chang Sheng faked with silence.
Chen Chang Sheng gazed at the gloomy light outside the window and asked, "But why did she do this?"
Tang Thirty-Six replied, "I trust that Mo Yu has already warned you."
Chen Chang Sheng thought of the words Mo Yu had said to him that night.
Did You Rong do all this just to avenge the Tianhai Divine Empress?
Even if the flood soared to the heavens, even if the heavens fell and the earth split, even if the people were plunged into misery and suffering?
"It's not like this, at least, it's not as simple as this."
Chen Chang Sheng drew back his gaze and looked at Tang Thirty-Six. "She said to me that if she really did do something, she would tell me."
After breakfast, Tang Thirty-Six returned to the Orthodox Academy. He needed to get in touch with Wenshui as quickly as possible so that he could deal with the sudden chaos in the capital.
Xu You Rong had come to the Li Palace.
Seeing the beautiful woman arrive accompanied by the gradually brightening light, Chen Chang Sheng suddenly felt rather nervous.
"Last night, I chatted with your senior brother for an entire night. I'm a little tired."
Xu You Rong covered her mouth with her hand and carefully yawned.
Chen Chang Sheng noticed the exhaustion that could not be shaken off her elegant face and couldn't help but feel his heart ache.
"Then hurry up and rest."
Xu You Rong smirked at him. "Don't you have anything you want to ask me?"
Chen Chang Sheng replied, "If you're willing to tell me, you'll naturally tell me."
Xu You Rong smiled. "So let's go for a walk outside and see if we can feel a little better."
… …
… …
Last night, Luoyang was abnormally cold, the cold wave following the wind from the east to the west. This morning, the capital had also rapidly dropped in temperature, and another bout of snow had fallen.
Chen Chang Sheng and Xu You Rong walked through the snow-shrouded Li Palace. The priests and attendants gave way to them.
The only things left on the vast plaza were their footprints. The scene seemed rather cold and cheerless.
Xu You Rong held her hands behind her back as she casually walked through the halls, taking in her surroundings with great interest.
In terms of temperament, she seemed like a retired minister who had returned to her hometown and suddenly had the idea of going out to buy groceries.
Chen Chang Sheng found this rather amusing, and then he found it very cute. He then remembered that the Tianhai Divine Empress also liked to walk like this.
Xu You Rong stopped, pushed a strand of messy hair behind his ear, and then smiled.
Chen Chang Sheng had a slight obsession with cleanliness and was the most conscientious in his work. His black hair had never been messed up, and this sort of thing was very rare.
This could only mean that his mood today was also rather chaotic.
"Yesterday, I arranged to meet Prince Chen Liu at the Orthodox Academy. I had originally planned to meet with you, but you were busy at the time, so I met with him."
Xu You Rong continued, "I told him that I would enter the palace tonight and hoped that he could seize this chance."
Chen Chang Sheng had not expected this topic to be so abruptly brought up. He subconsciously asked, "Chance?"
"To him and the Prince of Xiang, the rift between you and Shang Xingzhou was their only chance."
Xu You Rong continued, "But you and I do not have enough strength to throw the situation into chaos, so they will not act rashly."
Chen Chang Sheng replied, "Unless you can convince Senior to stand on our side."
Xu You Rong replied, "Yes, so he will assuredly go to Luoyang and find Shang Xingzhou to discuss this matter. He will even help me complete this matter and convince your senior to stand on our side. At the very least, he will have to convince Shang Xingzhou that your senior will stand on our side."
Chen Chang Sheng said, "If we fail, it will be his and the Prince of Xiang's chance."
Xu You Rong agreed, "Correct, this is also our chance."
Chen Chang Sheng fell quiet for a while, then said, "This will cause many people to die."
"The Empress once said that by seeking peace through battle, peace will exist."
Xu You Rong continued, "What I seek is the method that will bleed the least …"
A distant bell suddenly rang out from the depths of the Li Palace, interrupting her.
Several Red Geese broke through the snowstorm and flew into the distance.
The priests and deacons that had been respectfully watching them from a corner of the hall began to look around. As if they had heard something, their faces suddenly lit up. (To be continued.)
