The death of the Empress Dowager was no less than a super earthquake to the people of Chang'an City, causing everyone to feel terrified and disturbed.

"Your Majesty, you have also received the news!" Gao Xing didn't stay too long in the Fuying Temple, and soon returned to the Yecheng Pavilion, asking Zhao Yanshen who was standing in the courtyard.

Zhao Yan frowned deeply, sighed silently, and nodded slightly.

"Then according to your Majesty's opinion, what should we do next?" Gao Xing stood half a step behind Zhao Yanshen to show respect.

Zhao Yan shook his head deeply, with deep worry in his eyes, he shook his head and sighed: "The queen mother of Zhou passed away suddenly, which will definitely affect the purpose of our trip! The only plan for now is to wait patiently, to see when the emperor of Zhou will Meet us and see what his intentions are!"

"My lord, there are unpredictable things in the sky, people have misfortunes and blessings, and the world is unpredictable. Don't worry too much! You must know that there is no way out, and there is another village! Even if you are anxious, it will not help. If you don't want to wait with peace of mind, don't panic!" Gao Xing persuaded in a gentle voice.

Zhao Yanshen's body trembled slightly, he turned his head suddenly, his cloudy eyes full of sorrow suddenly burst into a strange light, looking at the happy eyes, there was both shock, appreciation and relief, and the heavy sorrow dissipated Not a lot.

"There is no way out of the mountains and rivers, and there is another village in the shadows of the willows and flowers. Incisive, incisive!" Zhao Yanshen stroked his beard with one hand, and with a cheerful smile on his face, he praised with emotion: "The governor Gao is indeed a great talent. Dog!"

"Your Majesty's praise!" Gao Xing blushed, after all, he was ashamed to have stolen Lu You's work.But in Zhao Yanshen's view, this was an expression of humility, which made him appreciate happiness even more.

"Inspector Gao is too modest!" Zhao Yanshen patted his happy shoulders, and the admiration in his eyes was undisguised, "Since our task cannot be completed in a short time, why don't we just stay here in Chang'an City, I believe that Emperor Zhou is not A stingy person, he will never let us go hungry, hahaha!" After Zhao Yanshen finished speaking, he smiled and walked into the room, his stooped back straightened a lot, and his body was depressed since Zhao Jingyuan married Turkic His breath also dissipated a lot.

Happily twitching the corners of his mouth, he returned to his room with a silent smile.The death of the empress dowager was not a trivial matter. The Royal Guards of the imperial city had already started martial law, and they even notified that a curfew would be enforced at night, so I was glad that I didn't continue to walk outside the city.

Happy to fasten the door, he sat cross-legged on the bed and practiced the "Longevity Formula" quietly.Since Zhang Rong's support to reach the peak of the fourth level when she became obsessed last time, in the past few months, the speed of Gao Xing's cultivation has suddenly become extremely slow, and she has never been able to break through to the fifth level.

Recently, monk Huilun, the unknown man in black in the palace, Yinchi the poisonous king, monk Zhixuan, the abbot of Fuying Temple, and other masters have appeared in the world one after another, which made Gao Xing feel pressured and had to work hard to ensure that he will be the first in the future hegemony. machine.

The gentle and vital energy of immortality made Gao Xing feel warm all over his body, and his heart felt peaceful. His consciousness directed the true energy to swim through his veins, gradually growing stronger, developing the potential of his body, and constantly accumulating his own energy. strength.

In the previous life, happy to live for hatred, all life except killing is cultivation.Cultivation has been integrated into his blood and has become an instinct.And practice can give the body a good rest, so when I am happy, I rarely sleep, and basically spend the night in practice.

On November 573th, [-] A.D., Yu Wenyong, who was grieving, moved to Yilu (a residence specially prepared for the mourning son) to watch the funeral for the empress dowager who denounced slaves, and the military and state affairs were handed over to Prince Yu Wenyun.Because of the new death of the queen mother, the marriage between Yu Wenyun and Yang Lihua had to be postponed, and the specific time was set on the second day of February.

In the past few days, Gao Xing did not go out of the Yecheng Pavilion. During the day, he simply strolled around the courtyard, or asked Zhao Yanshen for some knowledge, and at night, he practiced "Longevity Jue" as usual.Although still unable to break through, Gao Xing also knows that haste makes waste, and success will come when conditions are ripe, so he can maintain a calm mind.

On the first day of December, I came to the street alone after holding back the joy of being in the Yecheng Pavilion for several days, and continued to visit.

The depressive and tense environment in Chang'an City has eased a lot. After all, although the Queen Mother is noble, her death will not cause too much turmoil in the country. There are more pedestrians on the street, and the prosperity of the past has gradually recovered.

I am happy to follow the flow of people and unknowingly come to a bustling street.The noisy voice came to my ears, and after a closer look, I was happy to find that there was a big gambling house next to me.The gambling hall is called "Dasheng Gambling Shop", and there is a lot of people talking about it.

In and out, there are noble princes in gorgeous clothes, and poor people in shabby clothes.The winners are flushed and proud, while the losers are like defeated roosters, with red eyes and indignant faces, walking out of the gambling hall, and some of them are even more grumpy and cursing.

Beside the gambling house, there are mostly restaurants and brothels, and the business is booming.The fragrance of women's fragrance mixed with the fragrance of wine floats in the air, seducing the desires of the men who come and go.

Gao Xing licked his lips lightly, for some reason he suddenly wanted to drink, but he didn't step into the tavern in the end.Maybe it's because I miss Wang Yan, I'm happy to think so.

I don't know if Brother Wang has arrived in Yingzhou, but I hope they will be safe all the way, and I also wish him the heart of Miss Zhao!

Shaking his head happily, he glanced at Dasheng Casino again, and was about to step in when a person flew out from the door, followed by rough shouting and cursing.

"You son of a bitch, die!"

That's right, it was Fei, a young man was thrown out from the door by four guards of Dasheng Casino.

The road in front of Dasheng Gambling House is paved with blue stones, if this young man is thrown to the ground, the light ones will be bleeding, and the severe ones may have broken bones and tendons.Gao Xing was frightened, and wanted to rescue him, but was afraid that his secret would be exposed, so he hesitated.

Just when Gao Xing finally restrained his desire to make a move, and blessed the boy with guilt, the boy twisted his body in the air, and his head fell to the ground. As for a vicious dog snatching food, his face was full of peach blossoms.

"Little bastard, don't come here to have fun if you can't afford to lose. How dare you play tricks in this Dasheng gambling house, and don't weigh yourself! Hmph!" one of the four guards of Dasheng gambling house shouted. , with a look of disdain, he spit thick phlegm at the young man after speaking, if the young man hadn't dodged quickly, he might have been spit on his face.

Gao Xing frowned and looked at the boy.

The young man was wearing coarse clothes that were already very worn out, grass clippings stuck to his disheveled hair, a pair of tattered straw sandals on his feet, and his exposed toes were swollen from the cold and turned lavender.From the looks of it, he wasn't doing well.

Although the young man was a bit thin and thin, he stood up straight, his slightly immature face was full of determination, and his eyes were full of rebelliousness and cunning.Xing Xing couldn't help being interested, this boy had a relationship with Xing Xing once.

"Bah! What are you, you're just a dog's leg! It's my misfortune today, but I was cheated out of money by you. Just wait, I will come back again!" The young man stared disdainfully. Looking at those ferocious guards, there was no trace of fear on their faces.

"Hey, how dare you threaten us, hahaha!" The big man in the head seemed to hear the joke and looked at his companions and laughed, "Little brat, if you don't want to lose an arm or a leg, get out quickly, or else the old man will die!" Don't mind breaking your bones!"

"Dog thing, I'm so afraid of you!" The young man raised his chin. He looked like a noble young master, not like a down-and-out beggar.

"Looking for death!" All the big men were furious, and rushed out together, their fists as big as sand bowls flew up and smashed at the young man, with awe-inspiring momentum, really like a few hungry mad dogs.

"boom!"

"Ouch!"

Seeing the four big men chasing after him, the young man shook his hands and threw a handful of gravel at the faces of the big men, smashing the fastest big man and screaming, and stopped in his tracks.

"Brother, how are you, little bastard, I have to discount your dog legs today!" All the big men asked their companions with concern, and at the same time glared fiercely at the boy.

"It deserves it!" The young man sneered, turned around and ran, his figure was very flexible and swift, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only the big men jumping and cursing.

After happily watching the young man leave, he turned around and walked towards the Dasheng gambling house, ignoring the harsh words of the big men.Although it was only half a month since he played such a place with Wang Yan, he was happy to feel that a long time had passed, which made him nostalgic.

There are a lot of people in the gambling house, the sound is very noisy, but the air is not very turbid, maybe because people don't like smoking at this time!Do you want to find time to start the violent industry of tobacco, but this thing is harmful to your health!

Gao Xing squeezed through the crowd with conflicting feelings, and came to a table case with a lot of onlookers. This is a gambling game the size of a dice. It is a very simple game. This is Wang Yan’s favorite game, but it is a pity that he always Lose more and win less.Happily, with the "Secret of Longevity", the six senses have been greatly developed, so most of them can win and earn a lot of money, which makes Wang Yanda envious.

Zhuangjia is a middle-aged man with a thin figure, dressed in blue clothes, and has a two-inch beard under his chin. The four words "thief eyebrows and mouse eyes" can perfectly describe his appearance, and the rolling eyes of Gulu Gulu can tell This person must be a cunning person.

At this time, in front of the dealer, there are already full of copper coins, which are similar to the five baht coins of the Han Dynasty, but slightly larger, with the words "Five Elements Big Cloth Money" written on them.I am glad to know that this money should be a new coin introduced by the Northern Zhou Dynasty. It circulates together with the five baht money like "Buquan", but its value is ten times that of the old money.

Since the Three Kingdoms, the coins in the Central Plains have not been truly unified, which can be said to be extremely chaotic.In order to squeeze the people, those in power constantly promote new coins, and many powerful people mint coins privately, which leads to currency depreciation and drastic changes.Many times, in the northern countries, private trade has regressed to the point of barter.

Opposite the dealer, sat a young man with a calm temperament, wearing a dark blue Confucian shirt, with a luxurious cage crown on his head, and with a handsome face, he was indeed a refined and elegant young man.But when I was happy to see the young man's eyes, I felt a burst of heart, the eyes suddenly lit up, but they flashed and then closed, no one saw it.

"It's him?"
