If you are an immortal, you will live forever after you die.
Chapter 198: Old Friend (1/2)
Da Jin!
However, Chen Changsheng still likes to call it Da Zhou!
From the county governor, Chen Changsheng also roughly knew the changes in the entire Da Zhou after he left...
Emperor Li Ke was still diligent in the first ten years of his reign, but as he got older, he began to indulge in immortality and neglected government affairs. He set up a large number of immortality-seeking departments, which wasted people's money and labor, so that the whole world rebelled. Li Ke died of a sudden illness after maintaining the government for five years, and the new emperor who ascended the throne was incompetent...
There is nothing much to say about the following script. The old routine of heroes fighting for hegemony, rebel kings everywhere, and then somehow, the rebel king who was not outstanding three years ago suddenly emerged as a new force, and finally conquered the capital and established the current Da Gan Empire with two former kings!
"Thirty years have passed, and I didn't expect that the dynasty would change again..."
"I don't know what kind of person the founding emperor of Dagan is..."
"After the battle in the capital, are those old friends still here?"
Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng no longer wanted to stay in this city, and took Da Huang all the way to the capital.
The original capital of the Great Zhou, the later capital of the Great Jin, is also the current capital of Dagan!
Although the new dynasty has only been established for two years, the people have suffered from more than ten years of war and cherish the hard-won peaceful life very much. Although there has been no substantial improvement in their lives, compared with the life of zombies in the past few years, they now have some hope in their eyes...
In all dynasties, at the beginning of the founding of the country, there was always a clear administration and more talents would emerge, and the Dagan Empire was no exception.
The founding emperor of Dagan was talented and able to recognize people. The world was just beginning to settle, and the national strength of Dagan was also booming.
Under such circumstances, a man and a dog came to Xizhimen, the capital of Dagan!
"Da Huang, are you familiar with this place?"
Chen Changsheng's voice was filled with uncontrollable excitement.
Although more than 30 years have passed, this place has long been different, even the city gate has changed its appearance. It should have been renovated after the siege, but this city still has an extraordinary status in Chen Changsheng's heart!
"Woof!"
Da Huang nodded repeatedly.
This is not only Chen Changsheng's home, but also its home!
Of course, Da Huang is not as excited as Chen Changsheng. In its eyes, as long as there is Chen Changsheng, it is home!
"Let's go, let's enter the city!" Chen Changsheng said directly.
Enter the city!
The streets of the capital are still paved with bluestone slabs, but they are not very clean, and occasionally you can smell the smell of animal feces.
This is normal, the capital used to be the same!
After all, this is not modern society. There are no cars or shared bikes. There are ox carts from the countryside delivering vegetables to the city, and there are horse carriages for dignitaries. These animals don’t go to fixed places to go to the toilet...
"The familiar smell is back..."
"Let's go, Da Huang, let's go home and see if there is a new owner at home..." Chen Changsheng said with a smile.
No. 168 Changming Street, Xicheng District!
"No one lives here? After decades of absence, the grape vines are getting more and more prosperous, and there are many grapes. I am so lucky!"
Back home, the yard is still the same, but the roof is a little dilapidated and leaky because no one has lived there for many years, and the table is covered with a thick layer of dust. After all, no one has cleaned it for many years, which is normal.
"Woof!"
Da Huang was like a happy kid, circling the yard, and finally crawling under the grape trellis, as if he had returned to more than 30 years ago...
"This house is temporarily uninhabitable, and we still need to find someone to clean it up!"
"Then I'll just go to the brothels to make ends meet in the next few days..."
"I wonder how many of the brothels I was familiar with back then are still around..."
Chen Changsheng muttered to himself, went out, and directly found some odd jobs nearby, asked them to repair and clean the roof, and then went straight to the North City District he was familiar with!
"Chunfeng Pavilion and Baixiang Garden are still there, not bad, not bad. I didn't expect that this brothel has existed longer than a dynasty. It's really ironic... Um... This place was supposed to be Tingxiang Pavilion, but now it has been renamed Hongxiu Tower. However, the business has not changed. It is still a brothel!"
"Well, let's stop here today. I don't know how Miss Yaoqin, the former top girl in Tingxiang Pavilion, is doing now..."
"I am already 65 years old, and Miss Yaoqin is probably..."
"Forget it, forget it, let's go in and take a look first!"
"Let's go, Dahuang!"
Chen Changsheng greeted Dahuang.
In the past, Chen Changsheng never took Dahuang with him to the brothel to listen to music, but now the house is not cleaned up yet, and he can't just leave Dahuang behind.
In fact, it can be put into the spirit beast bag, but it's a pity that Dahuang doesn't like to stay in it, and Chen Changsheng can't let it down.
After all, Dahuang is not an ordinary dog now, but a second-level monster, and it has also awakened the void talent. Chen Changsheng still attaches great importance to Dahuang!
"Hey, guest... guest, why... why did you bring a dog..."
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Chen Changsheng threw a gold ingot directly over, which weighed at least ten taels...
"Alas, I'm just rude, I'm just rude!"
The old man took the gold ingot and smiled immediately, flicking it at his mouth a few times...
These days, those who can use gold to open the way are definitely the masters among masters!
Don't say that this gentleman only brought one dog, even if he brought ten dogs, he would have to serve them well!
"Stop talking nonsense, I'm here for fun!" Chen Changsheng said calmly.
"Oh, sir, of course everyone here is here for fun, sir... you..."
When the madam saw Chen Changsheng, she couldn't help but open her mouth, and then she seemed to feel it was indecent, so she covered her mouth with a handkerchief...
"What's wrong? Don't you want to receive me?" Chen Changsheng frowned.
"Sir, seeing what you said, how can I not receive you? It's just that seeing your appearance reminded me of someone, sir, what's your surname?" the madam asked cautiously.
"Chen!" Chen Changsheng said calmly.
"What? Chen? Do you... do you know... Chen Changsheng?" the madam said with wide eyes.
His surname is Chen, and he looks exactly like that person...
He can't be that person's grandson...
It's unlikely to be his son, the age difference is a bit too big...
"Who is Chen Changsheng? I don't know him!" Chen Changsheng shook his head directly.
This madam actually recognized me?
That’s true…
Back then, Chen Changsheng was a big name in the brothel.
It’s been only over thirty years since I left, not too long, not too long, not too long, not too long to be dead…
“Don’t know her? Looks like… Really too much like her…” the madam muttered to herself.
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng took a closer look at the madam, and a name popped up in his mind…
Yaoqin?
No way…
The former top performer of Tingxiang Pavilion has now become the madam of Hongxiulou?
After more than thirty years of not seeing each other, Yaoqin is almost sixty years old, and her figure has become bloated and fat, and only her face still has some shadows of the past…
It’s a pity that time makes people grow old!
When Yaoqin first debuted, I don’t know how many dignitaries and nobles competed to show their favor, and there were even many who fought for her.
Now look at it…
Time is really a butcher’s knife!
Fortunately, my buddy can handle it, and his appearance is still online...
"Yaoqin mother, the guests are still waiting?"
Seeing the old procuress in a daze, the turtle man beside her pushed her directly.
Fuck!
I didn't see it wrong, it was really Yaoqin...
"Oh, oh, I'm sorry, I remembered some past events and kept you waiting for a long time. I haven't seen you before. It should be your first time to our Hongxiu Building. Do you need me to recommend a few girls for you?" Yaoqin said suddenly.
"Okay, prepare a quiet courtyard for me. I will stay here for a few days. If there are any good dishes, please send them up quickly. There is also wine...I remember that the signature here should be Zuirenxiang...First, bring ten or so jars..."
"You, lead the way!"
Chen Changsheng directly grabbed the turtle man and asked him to lead the way.
Yaoqin behind him heard the words and started to be dazed again...
Is the signature here Zuirenxiang?
Zuirenxiang, isn't that the signature wine of Tingxiang Pavilion back then?
He looks like he was cut from the same mold, but he said he didn't know him...
Or, is this person him?
For a moment, Yaoqin was in a trance...
Reason told her that this person couldn't be the Chen Changsheng she knew.
No one can resist the power of time. Is it possible that more than 30 years have left no trace on a person's face?
But emotionally, she was told that this person was most likely Chen Changsheng...
Hua Xiangyuan!
"Master, you are so majestic..."
"Yes, Master, I have never met someone as powerful as you..."
Two top performers of Hongxiulou, one Hongxing and one Xiangtao, served Chen Changsheng together, one patted his back, and the other peeled grapes...
Since entering the world of immortal cultivation, Chen Changsheng hasn't enjoyed life like this for a long, long time...
"Not bad, Master has something more powerful..."
"Oh, by the way, I have something to ask you!" Chen Changsheng said.
"Master, just ask, I will tell you everything I know!" Hongxing said with a smile.
"Yes, Master, if you have anything to ask, just say it!" Xiang Tao also said.
"When was your Hongxiu Tower built? If I remember correctly, it should have been called Tingxiang Pavilion, right?" Chen Changsheng asked.
"Master, so you want to ask this. You are right. This place was originally called Tingxiang Pavilion, but the original backer of Tingxiang Pavilion was a prince of the previous dynasty. Now it's a big deal. The prince was beheaded, and Tingxiang Pavilion became the current Hongxiu Tower..." Hong Xing said.
"Yes, Master, do you know Yaoqin's mother? She used to be the top player of Tingxiang Pavilion. I heard that when she was young, it was not Dajin, but Dazhou, and many people were fascinated by her..." Xiang Tao said.
"So that's the case. It's related to the prince of the previous dynasty... How much do you know about the current emperor?" Chen Changsheng smiled and wandered back and forth between the two...
"Master... you are so bad..."
"We are just brothel girls. What can we know about the current emperor..." Hong Xing said coquettishly.
"However, there are still some rumors. Do you want to hear them?" Xiang Tao said.
"What rumors?" Chen Changsheng asked.
"It is said that the current emperor actually has a deep connection with the previous dynasty and is a royal relative!" Xiang Tao said.
"Royal relative? Then why are you rebelling?" Chen Changsheng was surprised.
"I don't know, the rumors say so..." Xiang Tao said.
"Then what is the name of the current emperor?" Chen Changsheng asked curiously.
Speaking of the royal relatives of the previous dynasty...
He still has some understanding of these...
After all, he was not an ordinary person back then. There was nothing he didn't know about the emperor's close associates.
"His Majesty's surname is Ye. As for what he is called... we girls in brothels don't know this..."
"Well, my surname is Ye. I heard that your Majesty's father was some kind of general from the previous dynasty..." Hongxing nodded.
Suddenly, Chen Changsheng sat up...
His Majesty’s surname is Ye?
Relatives of the previous dynasty?
His father was a general from the previous dynasty?
Is it possible...
Is it Ye Qing, the son of General Ye Wuji?
Suddenly, a figure appeared in Chen Changsheng's mind... Ye Piaoling!
I haven’t seen her for many years, and I don’t know how she is doing...
Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng suddenly lost the desire to stay here. Just as it happened, it was already dark...
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
Hongxing and Xiangtao were both shocked...
"Nothing? I suddenly thought of something. I'll go out first and come back later. Dahuang, let's go!"
Chen Changsheng said, stood up directly, and called Dahuang...
After leaving Goulan, Chen Changsheng first came to No. 221 Huayuan Road, Nancheng District!
This is the place where Chen Changsheng once placed Ye Piaoling.
Chen Changsheng didn't think much about coming here. He just wanted to see his old friend and didn't even plan to show up himself...
After all, my appearance has not changed over the past few decades, and the beauties in the past have grown old. Rather than making them sad, it would be better not to see them...
Chen Changsheng did not go in. As a foundation-building monk, he knew that there was no one here without going in...
"As expected, there is no one. I just don't know if they have died or moved..." Chen Changsheng said softly.
Ye Piaoling is not young anymore. The capital has gone through another chaos. Any accident is possible!
"Huh? No, someone has lived in this room... at least, someone has cleaned it..."
Entering the small courtyard, Chen Changsheng took a casual glance and found that although there was no one in the courtyard, it was extremely clean. Even the tabletop, although not spotless, did show traces of someone cleaning it frequently...
Could it be that...Ye Piaoling is not dead yet?
Or is there already another owner here?
Chen Changsheng did not stay long, but after looking around, he headed towards the Pan family!
Pan Wu!
After Chen Changsheng entered this world, there were only a few people who could be considered friends!
When he left, the Xunxian Department was left in charge of him. I wonder what will happen to him when the new dynasty is established...
Of course, even after he died, Chen Changsheng didn't say he had any plans to take revenge. At most, he would burn two sticks of incense for him...
And not long after Chen Changsheng left, a group of palace ladies and eunuchs opened the way, with an eight-carrying sedan in the middle, accompanied by many guards around, and they just stopped in front of the courtyard door!
"You are all guarding here, and you are not allowed to come in!"
The sedan fell down, and an old voice came from inside...
