Changan.

A sprawling city.

Dating back more than 1,000 years, it was the capital of the dynasty.

A few decades ago, the eastern part of the country became the capital for a short time, at that time, Chang'an was also called Xijing, the honor of the capital was not deprived, officially, and known as the eastern capital of the same status, in fact, in most people's minds, it is still the unique capital of the Tang Dynasty.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the Tang court to move back to Chang'an.

After all, the Du royal family originated from Guanzhong, the first wealthy family in Qinchuan for eight hundred miles, and as a conqueror, the Du family's roots in the Kanto region were far from so deep.

At the beginning, the reason why Luoyang was elevated to a high status was very simple.

At that time, the Queen of Heaven controlled the court and vigorously weakened the Du royal family, and most of the Kansai gate lords supported the Du royal family in a clear manner, and in order to suppress this power, it was necessary to promote a large number of talented people from the Kanto region, so the palace was moved to the Kanto region, which improved the political status of the city.

After the death of the Queen of Heaven, Shenzong Du Ting gained great power.

Next, it is natural to set things right, swords and swords, although the status of the eastern capital Luoyang is still there, it is no longer the place where the Tang court is located, and Chang'an is still the only center of the Tang Empire.

However, everything has changed since it was more than 100 years ago.

No one can escape the erosion of time.

More than 20 years ago, the Kwantung rebellion, the towns rebelled, the rebels gathered in the land of Yanzhao, based on the Central Plains, conquered the eastern capital of Luoyang, captured the east of the Hezhou, and attacked Guanzhong in two ways.

The Northern Route Army crossed the Yellow River and marched all the way to Dalicheng.

The Southern Route Army broke through Tongguan, attacked and occupied Huayin, crossed Weinan, and entered the city of Chang'an.

The Tang court fled west in a hurry and moved to Fengxiang, ready to go south to Shu at any time, and to some extent, it seems that it is only one step away from the death of the country.

Shenzong Du Ting fled to Fengxiang and died of fright, and the crown prince who stayed in Chang'an, Du Rui's grandfather, Xuanzong Du Huai, succeeded to the throne.

Guo Linggong led the recruited Xiliang soldiers to defeat the rebels in one fell swoop under the city of Chang'an, and then, after several years of tug-of-war, recaptured the eastern capital of Luoyang and suppressed the rebels in the land of Yanzhao. By this time, both sides were exhausted, there were not a single survivor left, and the resources of the war were exhausted.

The rebels are incapable of continuing to confront the officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers are unable to completely eliminate the rebellion.

Then, peace came.

The towns of Hebei returned to the banner of the Tang Empire, however, it was only in name, and the influence of the Du Dynasty in those places could be said to be minimal.

In the past 20 years, no less than 100 prison soldiers have died in various accidents in Hebei towns.

During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong, the Uighurs in the northwest rebelled, and outside the Yumen Pass, smoke rose everywhere, and many ethnic groups fought each other, completely cutting off the Silk Road.

Until now, Yingzong Du Zhen has reigned for 17 years, and the Silk Road has still not been opened.

The land of the river is no longer owned by the Tang Dynasty.

Chang'an City, originally the capital of the world, all the tribes came to worship, the aliens called it the paradise on earth, and now, although it is still lively and noisy, it is like an old man who has entered the twilight, and the decadence is fully revealed.

Now, the children of the wealthy families in Guanzhong are all praised by Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River and Yizhou in Shuzhong.

That's where the world's richest gather.

Of course, in terms of economic aggregate alone, Chang'an is still not comparable to Yangzhou and Yizhou, after all, this is where the palace is located and the center of the dynasty after all.

Sunlight sets from the sky, shining on the eaves of the roof high up.

Du Rui leaned back in his chair, with a thick cushion under him, tilted his head, his gaze came out of the window, and landed on the eaves, where there was a small blue bird, with a pleasant expression playing with the green feathers on his body.

About Chang'an, about Datang, those information came to mind like water.

History is plausible.

The world is different.

This is not the ancient earth.

That's what Du Rui can be sure of.

Behind him, Mo Chou sat cross-legged, his long sword resting horizontally in front of his knee, his left hand resting on the scabbard, and his right hand hanging in front of him.

The walls on the left and right sides of the house are open with large windows, and the sunlight enters through the windows, and the wind follows, happily spinning in the room, and the air is floating with wisps of medicinal fragrance.

Shuangzhaotang.

A very appropriate name.

On the other side, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy in a green shirt sat cross-legged.

Like Du Rui, his face was pale, but this paleness was not as sickly as Du Rui, but as pale as the snow of the Tianshan Mountains, with a faint sense of coldness.

The boy's eyes were so dark brown that they were almost pitch black, and if he stared at someone, it seemed like a ghostly fire flickering.

At this moment, his gaze was falling on one of Du Rui's cheeks.

The young man's surname is Xu, Xu Xinyan, the disciple of Xu Huanzhi, the owner of Xinglu.

Du Rui has been to this place several times.

Since he was born, he has struggled on the verge of death many times, but every small cold is very likely to kill him. The reason why I have been able to survive until now is that there is no shortage of various medicines in the hospital, and second, the imperial doctors are highly skilled, and in addition, luck is more important.

How many times, even when the imperial doctor was helpless and could only shake his head and sigh, he was able to struggle to survive.

There is no reason to talk about it other than miracles.

After moving out of Daming Palace and coming to Xuanzhen Temple, the Tai Hospital could not be counted on.

Once you get sick, you can only ask the folk Langzhong.

Moreover, they could not invite Lang Zhong to go to Xuanzhen for medical treatment.

Du Rui's existence is a scar in Yingzong Du Zhen's heart.

So, taking the opportunity of God's warning to send Du Rui out of Daming Palace, he thought that this son was dead, and hoped that everyone would think so.

Since Yingzong Dang Du Rui does not exist, so do those below.

Du Rui became a kind of taboo that could not be mentioned.

In this case, the people of Xuanzhenguan naturally did not allow Lang Zhong to come to the door, if the people knew about Du Rui's existence, once it was known today, no one would be able to withstand the thunderous anger.

Therefore, Wei Yue could only take Du Rui incognito to seek medical treatment.

Xinglu is located in Chang'an North City.

This is a somewhat famous medical hall, and Xu Huanzhi, the owner of Xinglu, is also a guest of some dignitaries, and Wei Yue also came here.

Xu Huanzhi does have some ability, so Du Rui will also come here every month.

Every time he is diagnosed and treated, it is Xu Xinyan who is miscellaneous by Xu Huanzhi's side, and Du Rui, who has the ability to never forget, naturally remembers him, this young man seems to have a very strong pain on his body, all of which are condensed in his eyes, no matter how he hides it, he can't hide it, so that his eyes are like ghost fire.

This is a teenager with a story......

Suddenly, Du Rui turned his head and looked at Xu Xinyan.

The two looked at each other, and Du Rui blinked.

Xu Xinyan was taken aback and hurriedly looked away.

Yes, he was very curious about Du Rui.

However, a closer look at Du Rui is not just curiosity.

Xu Xinyan has another purpose.

A month ago, Wei Yue brought Du Rui, who had a cold, to the clinic, and at that time, Du Rui had already fallen into a state of fainting, and his forehead was so hot that he seemed to be able to boil an egg. Because he came in a hurry, Wei Yue did not completely change Du Rui's clothes, the underwear is very eye-catching bright yellow, and the material is a rare high-quality silk.

Bright yellow, royal.

Of course, now that the majesty of the royal family is gone, some of the children of the gate valve families will also use bright yellow silk as underwear, however, they dare not embroider the dragon pattern on it.

Unless you want to rebel, you must not be so bold.

In this way, there is only one truth.

That is, Du Rui is a child of the royal family.

After coming to Chang'an, because of a certain purpose, Xu Xinyan made a plan for this, and it is also appropriate to understand the specific situation of the Tang court and the princes of the court. However, although he was in a class that occasionally had access to the Gate Valve family, he was still isolated from that circle after all.

The so-called upper level of the situation he understands is only one scale and half claw, and the truth is unknown.

For him, Du Rui is an opportunity given by God.

However, Master Xu Huanzhi said that Du Rui was born with an incomplete mind, and the three souls of the three souls and seven spirits were mutilated, and it was impossible to cure them with the power of medicinal stones, and it was already a miracle that he could live until now.

In this way, hope was like a soap bubble bursting in Xu Xinyan's heart.

However, today Wei Yue brought Du Rui to the door, but Xu Xinyan felt that Du Rui was different from usual, and he couldn't say what was the difference. So, he also observed Du Rui carefully, and there was no extra cover-up, his heart was already in turmoil, and he didn't want to let go of any possibility.

Unexpectedly, Du Rui turned his head and glanced at him.

At that moment, Xu Xinyan felt like he was not wearing clothes, and he felt that he was completely seen through by Du Rui.

There was a sudden increase in sweat on his forehead.

At this time, there was the sound of footsteps outside the house.

Wei Yue and an old man in a kudzu shirt entered the house side by side.

The old man's beard and hair were all white, and even his eyebrows were all white, but the whole person was radiant, his face was full of redness, there were not many wrinkles on his face, and his skin was very tight.

The so-called crane hair and childlike face are like this.

This old man is Xu Huanzhi, the owner of Xinglu.

Xu Xinyan hurriedly stood up and bowed.

"Master!"

Xu Huanzhi waved his hand, with a smile on his face.

"Sit, sit......"

He glanced up at Du Rui, who was still sitting high, and the smile in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

A few months ago, Wei Yue brought Du Rui to Xinglu.

Although he didn't know Du Rui's specific identity, he knew that Wei Yue was a castrated person, most likely a eunuch in the palace, so Du Rui's identity was unspeakably expensive.

The other party has a lost soul, and it is normal that it is not known to the world.

On the one hand, he was a little afraid, afraid of getting involved in court disputes; On the other hand, he was very curious about this case, if he could cure the loss of soul with the power of medicinal stones, he would be able to leave his name in the history of the apricot forest.

On the one hand, there is an invisible danger, and on the other hand, there is a name left in history.

In the end, Xu Huanzhi still chose the latter item.

Just before a stick of incense, Xu Huanzhi checked Du Rui's pulse, and found that Du Rui's pulse had changed dramatically, although it was still a little obscure, the beating was much stronger than before.

Then, look at the complexion.

It still looks like it's the same as before, but in reality, it's different.

Therefore, Xu Huan's heart was happy.

It's a pity that if he didn't care about Du Rui's possible identity, he would have left the other party in Xinglu, so that he could draw a more accurate conclusion.

Just as Xu Huanzhi opened his mouth to speak, there was a noise outside.

The crowd was full of voices and very lively.
