In a mountain villa, Zhuge Nanming's face was extremely ugly.

He already knew the news of the destruction of the Chengtian Sect.

Shocking, unbelievable.

Qin Zhan's condition has improved a lot after two days of recuperation, and he is still wrapped in bandages on his body, and he barely gets out of bed.

He trembled with anger when he heard the bad news, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but overflow blood again.

Chengtianzong is the backbone of the Dark Pavilion, which is also the confidence of Qin Zhan to dare to argue with Zhou Xiao. Now this confidence has also been deprived by Zhou Xiao......

"How is it possible?" Qin Zhan hated to the extreme.

Zhuge Nanming sighed, "People are not as good as heaven, I didn't expect Zhou Xiao to have such a hole card." Why, in the Royal Academy that day, I never saw such a strong man appear?"

Zhuge Nan thought carefully and was extremely frightened.

A person who can single-handedly destroy the Chengtian Sect will only be higher than him, and it will be a lot higher.

Because even he can't do it so cleanly.

Qin Zhan didn't speak, but instead said to Qinglong on the side: "According to the current form, it is impossible to regain the imperial power in a short period of time. The revenge of the Nine Clans cannot be avenged for the time being......"

Zhuge Nanming said: "This matter has to be considered in the long run, and we can't be in a hurry." Fortunately, we still have the support of the two great families of Ye and Gu, and careful planning may not be impossible. ”

"The teacher said yes. Qin Zhan's voice was cold, "I don't believe that he didn't have wet feet when Zhou Xiao didn't get wet." ”

At this time, the heads of the two major families of Ye and Gu met secretly.

"Brother Ye, what do you think about the destruction of the Chengtian Sect?" Gu Hai, the head of the Gu family, asked Ye Cangdao, the head of the Ye family.

Ye Cang frowned slightly, and said for a while: "It's not a good sign." ”

"The emperor's move against Chengtianzong this time is obviously because Chengtianzong has something to do with the Dark Pavilion. This little emperor can't tolerate sand in his eyes. Ye Cang's tone was quite solemn.

Gu Hai nodded when he heard this, "Brother Ye is extremely right. I also have some concerns......"

Halfway through speaking, Gu Hai stopped and looked at Ye Cang.

Ye Cang is such a shrewd person, how can he not know the meaning of the ancient sea dialect, and said: "The little emperor is clearing the forces that disintegrate the dark pavilion step by step. Now that the Chengtian Sect has been destroyed, I am afraid that there will be no peaceful days in the future. What are the plans of the old brother?"

Gu Hai took a sip of tea, thought for a while and said: "The fate of Chengtian Sect has sounded the alarm for us, although my two families have some heritage, but after all, they can't be compared with Chengtian Sect......"

"What do you mean?" Ye Cang asked.

"Take one step at a time, follow the trend. Gu Haidao, "At the beginning, you and I were attached to Qin Zhan, all of them wanted to make the family go further, but now ......"

The two did not continue, but looked at each other, already knowing what they meant.

......

When Zhou Xiao led the army back to the imperial capital, night had quietly fallen.

The imperial capital at night is brightly lit and has a unique taste.

Looking at the bustling streets and the lively crowd, Zhou Xiao suddenly had a feeling that it was good to be an ordinary person.

Since he crossed over, he has been a high emperor and is admired and worshiped by his subjects.

It's been a long time since he's felt this kind of human fireworks.

Therefore, Zhou Xiao temporarily changed his mind and said to Zhao Zilong and the others: "Guo Nu, you go back first and settle down the army, I still have things to do." Zilong come with me. ”

"The last general obeys!" Guo Nu didn't ask much.

Wei Zhong wanted to speak, but Zhou smiled and said, "Wei Zhong, Nezha, you also go back." ”

Wei Zhong suddenly had a feeling of falling out of favor, but he could only respond.

As for Nezha, Zhou Xiao felt that something would happen with him......

After Wei Zhong and the others left, Zhou Xiao ordered Zhao Zilong to find two sets of ordinary people's clothes. Changing out of the ancient dragon robe, Zhou Xiao dressed up as a handsome boy.

And Zhao Zilong is dressed in a strong suit, and his equipment is extraordinary, a bit like Zhou Xiao's 'bodyguard'.

"Lord, what are we going to do now?" Zhao Zilong asked.

Zhou Xiao cleared his throat, "We're paying for a private visit." ”

"By the way, don't call me lord when you're not in the palace, just call me son. ”

"Yes, Childe. "Zhao Zilong entered the role quite quickly.

Walking out of the alley and blending into the noisy and bustling streets, Zhou Xiao suddenly found a realistic question: "Zilong, do you bring any money?"

How can you play without money?

"Brought it. Zhao Zilong handed a bag full of silver to Zhou Xiao.

Awesome!

To be honest, the nightlife of the ancient people was not as rich as Zhou Xiao imagined.

Restaurants, gambling houses, green houses......

Zhou Xiao was not very interested in the first two, so he stopped at a place called Baihualou.

"Lord......" Zhao Zilong realized that something was wrong, and immediately changed his words, "Childe, you ......"

Zhao Zilong never dreamed that the first time he came to this kind of place in his life, he would follow the king of a country!

Zhou Xiao coughed and said, "Don't get me wrong, I just think the sound of the piano is very good......"

So the Great Zhou Emperor Zhou laughed,

Tian shamelessly walked into Baihualou!

In the Baihua Building, a group of warblers and warblers Yanyan immediately greeted them, but Zhou Xiao was really not interested in them.

In fact, Zhou Xiao was really attracted by the sound of the piano.

Entering the Baihualou, the melodious sound of the piano is becoming clearer, ethereal, and the charm is long.

"Who is playing this piano?" asked Zhou Xiao.

Seeing that Zhou Xiao was dressed with extraordinary dignity, the old bustard greeted him with a smile, "The bosom friend girl who played this song." Childe is really good Yaxing. The Shadow Girl will play a song tonight, why don't you go up to the private room on the second floor to listen to the music?"

"Painting?" Zhou Xiao asked puzzled.

Listening to the name, it seems to be a beautiful woman.

"Look at Gongzi's face, it's the first time to come to Baihualou, right?" the old bustard was so enthusiastic that he led Zhou Xiao to the second floor, "The painting is the signboard of our Baihualou, not only looks like water, but also plays the piano well." Childe is also lucky, the shadow girl will only appear once a month, and Childe happened to meet her. ”

Zhou Xiao suddenly became a little interested in this painting.

Led to the private room, Zhou Xiao ordered the best wine and food, and the old bustard wrote it down and asked, "Does the son need to call a few girls to accompany him?"

"No need. Zhou smiled.

The bustard was very knowledgeable and did not ask, and retreated.

Soon the food and drinks were ready.

Looking forward from where Zhou Xiao was sitting, he could just see a stage, the stage was covered by a light veil, and it was vaguely visible that a guqin was arranged in it, but there was no human figure......

With the passage of time, there are more and more customers in Baihualou.

Zhou Xiao heard a lot of people talking about painting.

"After waiting for a month, it's finally the day when the shadow girl plays the piano again......"

"It's just a pity that it's been more than a year, and no one has seen the appearance of the shadow girl. ”

"If you can see the beauty, you will have no regrets in this life!"

......

Zhou Xiao listened carefully and said in his heart: "Is it so exaggerated?"

I've never seen her face, how do you know she's beautiful?

It can't be a back killer, right?

Zhou Xiao couldn't help but think crankily in his heart.

And just then, the bustard beckoned the guests to be quiet.

On the second floor, opposite Zhou Xiao, a beautiful figure was supported and slowly walked behind the light veil and sat in front of the guqin.

She is veiled,

The body line is extremely soft.

Although he couldn't see her face, Zhou Xiao knew that she must be so beautiful that she turned all beings upside down......

The audience fell silent.

Quietly looked at the woman in the light veil......
