The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 484 Returning to the Capital

In fact, Changsun Ji had already noticed before that all the soldiers Feng Huo handed over to him were dead soldiers. These people didn't have much emotion in their eyes at all, and some could only obey orders.

As for the soldiers under his command who let him leave before entering the palace, they are probably already out of the palace now.

After leaving the palace gate, Changsun Ji didn't stop, and went out of the city directly. Before entering the palace, he had already made preparations. After leaving the palace for a long time, Changsun Ji saw the carriage that greeted him, and got into the carriage. All the way straight out of the city.

He has already left spies in the city, and he will return to the city only after the final result. If the matter fails, he will directly return to Changwei.

Changsun Ji settled down in a small city outside the capital, and had a good night's sleep. Although he didn't make a move tonight, he was very tired from planning every place with fear.

The sky was slightly bright, Changsun Ji suddenly opened his eyes, looked around, saw that the surroundings were still hazy with night, at this time, Changsun Ji realized that he was no longer in the capital.

Sitting up from the bed, Changsun Ji stretched his waist, stood in the room and walked back and forth a few times. Changsun Ji asked Wang Gang to bring up a pot of hot water.

Changsun Ji threw a cup of tea, then opened the door and window and looked out the window. At this time, there was a coolness with water vapor in the air.

The sky outside the window was already bright, and there were hardly any people on the Qingshi Road. Changsun Ji stretched out his hand. Only then did he feel that it was raining outside, but it was only drizzle. Raindrops are not felt.

Looking at the bluestone road outside the door, breathing in the slightly humid air, and lowering his head to take a sip of the slightly fragrant tea, Changsun Ji suddenly felt calm, and his impetuous mood gradually disappeared.

Now that he is not in the capital, no matter what the outcome of the matter is, he cannot change it for him. Whether he is worried or leisurely, it will not have any impact on the outcome. If this is the case, then he might as well choose Some emotions that.

Thinking of this, Changsun Ji shook his head and chuckled a few times.

The small town that Changsun Ji chose was very close to the capital, so as soon as the news spread in the capital, he would know the news immediately.

However, it took much later in the evening than Changsun Ji expected for the results of the matter in the capital. Originally, Changsun Ji thought that he would know the news in the morning, but he did not expect that it would be the afternoon of the same day when he knew the news.

At that time, Changsun Ji was playing chess with Cheng Ping in the room, and when he heard the news, it was the time when Changsun Ji dropped the chess pieces to encircle and kill Wang Gang's chess pieces.

As for the situation in the capital, the result was just like the chess game in front of him. Changsun Ji was superior in chess. The two princes were killed by someone else that night, and it was Shidi Gorilla who did it. Changsun Ji was not surprised at this point. It was originally his plan. As expected, something else must have happened after he left.But it was Feng Huo who won in the end, and he was also the one.

Changsun Ji laughed lightly, stood up, clapped his hands lightly, and said to Cheng Ping: "I'll go back to the city to have a look, Feng Huo will definitely call me into the palace if I don't show up." Not pretty."

Cheng Ping nodded, and said softly: "I'll arrange people to prepare."

Changsun Ji waved his hand and said, "It's not necessary, as long as Wang Gang and I go back, you bring the soldiers here to meet me. Although we guess that in order to stabilize the officials in the court, Feng Huo will not pursue my sudden departure yesterday. It’s a crime, but it’s not certain, you’re helping me outside the city, so I can feel at ease in the city, it’s just me and Wang Gang, if something really happens in the city, we can get out.”

Cheng Ping glanced at Changsun Ji, didn't speak, just nodded.

Taking Wang Gang out of the inn door, Changsun Ji rode on the horse that had been prepared long ago, then waved the whip, and ran directly towards the capital.

After rushing all the way, when we arrived at the capital, the sky was already dark. Fortunately, the city gate was not closed yet. After entering the capital, Changsun Ji looked around. Although the people in the capital had no access to the affairs of the palace, some Just by looking at the expressions of the people in the capital and the atmosphere in the capital, one can see what the capital is like now.

However, what Changsun Ji was most worried about did not happen. The people in the city were no different from when he left.Seeing this scene, Changsun Ji already had a bottom line in his heart.

Changsun Ji did not go directly to the palace, but returned directly to the mansion, and simply cleaned up the dust. Changsun Ji asked someone to summon him, and asked if anyone in the palace had been sent to summon him.

After all, with such a big mansion, even if he left the capital, he would definitely leave servants to guard the mansion.

But the result was not what Changsun Ji imagined, no one in the palace came to summon him.Hearing this result, Changsun Ji frowned slightly, obviously a little puzzled.

But soon, Changsun Ji understood why Gong Nei didn't come.As for the reason, it was naturally because of the capital he left yesterday.

The other party was very dissatisfied with himself, but he couldn't say anything, so he deliberately didn't summon him, and let himself hang out for a day.

Changsun Ji smiled and didn't care. In fact, the current situation in the capital does not mean that the death of the two princes has ended.If Feng Huo felt that his ascension to that position was the end, he would be too disappointed. Ascension to the position is not the end, but the beginning.

Although many of the officials in the imperial court are fools and support whoever takes the position, there are still some who don't like him at all, and it is the real power in the hands of this group of people.

If Feng Huo really wanted to throw him away now, Changsun Ji wouldn't care. In fact, from the very beginning, Changsun Ji wanted to leave the capital and return to Changwei after Feng Huo had fully ascended to the throne. is true wisdom.

It's not that Changsun Ji has settled down to stay in Changwei for the elderly. Retreating bravely is not a retreat or forbearance, but to accumulate strength for the next outbreak.

In fact, if he had known about the death of the crown prince before and had been prepared, then this succession would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but he was not prepared, so he gave up his preparations.

Changsun Ji rubbed his brows, and made up his mind that if the court didn't send someone to summon him tomorrow, he would go to the court to resign and return to Changwei. The filial piety he gave to Changsun Lianyi hadn't come yet, but it was just Let the crown prince be summoned back urgently, and now it's okay to go back.

After tidying up, Changsun Ji went to bed and ran all the way. Even though he had a saddle, he felt as if his whole body had been knocked apart.
