Gu Zuo has always believed in fate. He felt that he and Li Yan were destined. This child was both talented and sensible, and was really an excellent candidate to be his direct disciple. Therefore, he really took this matter seriously.

After chatting with Jin Zongfeng until midnight, they each went back to their rooms to rest until dawn. Gu Zuo wandered back to the Xihe Gymnasium and happened to see Li Twelve sitting on the stone bench in the yard waiting for him.

"Drinking?"

"Well, having a drink with an old friend reminded me of many things that happened in Shanyin County in the past."

"Who is it?"

"One of the offerings, the offering of the He family. It's at Senior Brother Zhang's Zhuangzi, Mr. He's house that I told you about..."

"The gold priest who helped you get the ticket?"

"Hey, do you remember? It's not easy."

"Since I've been kind to you, I still have to repay you when it's time to repay you. What is he doing now? What does he want to ask for?"

"No need for now... I won't be polite to you if I need it, and you, the big shot, will have to take action."

After hearing this, Li Twelve looked much better: "What a big shot, don't talk nonsense. You can have a good rest. I told Xiuxiu to find her if you need anything. I brought her out, so you can rest assured."

.I still need to take Junior Sister He to Prince Qi’s Mansion, it’s too late today..."

Gu Zuo asked: "Are you familiar with King Qi?"

Li Twelve said: "I study music every day in Prince Qi's Mansion, and we often get together. Recently, Musician Li came up with a Jiegu drum technique. I'll see if it can be incorporated into the sword dance."

Gu Zuodao: "You spend all day tinkering with poetry, painting, music, and music, but don't you practice?"

Li Twelve said: "You will know after you enter the golden elixir. It will be difficult to break through the realm in the future. It is very important to realize that our study of these is also a kind of practice. Qinglian layman sang about the difficulties of Shu Road and entered the golden elixir.

Later, Zan Xia

The guest's wind breaks through the realm of Yuanying, and when you travel to Tianmu Mountain and chant farewell, you break through the late stage of Yuanying. This is the way. Let's talk about the official Wang Langzhong, isn't it also the saying "The solitary smoke in the desert is straight" that leads to enlightenment, breaking through the golden elixir

Later?"

Gu Zuodao: "You art people can't understand it, and I can't help you. Anyway, I wish my senior sister an early breakthrough to the late stage of Jindan. By the way, are you familiar with King Qi?"

Li Twelve said: "Look, King Qi loves music very much. Usually he doesn't talk much about other things in his house, and even in his house, we rarely see each other. We just lend him a place. You

Is there something wrong? Do you want to help your Du... Zimei seek an official position? Or do you want to

Help with money for worship? Forget it if it is Du Zimei. If the application is not successful, the two companies will vote separately. Since you have voted for Mrs. Guo Guo, don't look for other families, unless her family can't do it, but there are few things that Mrs. Guo Guo can't do.

.If the gold offering is for an official, I can try to ask King Qi?"

Gu Zuo hadn't considered it yet: "We'll talk about it later, I want to think about it."

"Then I'm leaving?"

"Go." Gu Zuo waved his hand.

After Li Twelve left, Zhong Xiuxiu came over and asked if she wanted to go boating on the Qujiang River. She was willing to be a tour guide for Senior Brother Gu, but Gu Zuo declined politely. Zhong Xiuxiu was also a celebrity in Chang'an City, and traveling with her would have attracted too much attention.

, he doesn’t want to be so high-profile for the time being.

So, Gu Zuo grabbed a spiritual stone and practiced until the evening, and then checked the progress of the Huaixian sect disciples, especially Chen Mianhua and the other four golden flowers. After comparing them, he became more and more interested in Li Yan's affairs.

Zhong Xiuxiu came over in person to ask Senior Brother Gu what he wanted to eat at night. Gu Zuo was not polite and asked about some famous dishes in the capital. When Zhong Xiuxiu was about to go down to prepare, someone came to report that it was the steward of General Longwu's Mansion.

The post came and invited Gu Zuo to come to the house for a chat.

Gu Zuo suddenly felt very embarrassed. General Longwu Chen Xuanli was also the person he came to Chang'an to meet this time. He didn't expect that he had already taken the initiative to invite him before he was ready after two days of delay. The other party was quite well informed.

He apologized to Zhong Xiuxiu: "You see, this is a big deal... it makes you busy."

Zhong Xiuxiu said hurriedly: "It doesn't matter. Senior brother has something big to be busy with, so just stay busy."

Gu Zuo left the Xihe Gym and smiled at Zhong Xiuxiu: "Go back, what else is this worth giving?"

Seeing Gu Zuo boarding the carriage sent by General Longwu and leaving under the escort of several generals, Zhong Xiuxiu sighed softly.

This Senior Brother Gu is worthy of being a Senior Brother. When he and Senior Brother Zhang fought together in the same sect, the two of them defeated a group of people on the other side, and their reputation is still spread within the sect. After arriving in southern Xinjiang, he defeated the huge Southern Wuzhou with his bare hands, and also

Occupying a vein of spiritual stone, after listening to Senior Sister Li's story, Zhong Xiuxiu went to check Xiaoxiaosheng's newly published "Hundred Schools" and found that Senior Brother Gu's Huaixian Pavilion had been listed at the 50th place

one.

Xiaoxiaosheng also wrote a long paragraph, saying that Brother Gu led eight thousand soldiers and civilians of Nanwu Prefecture to hold on for seventeen months in the siege of the beast tide, which made Zhong Xiuxiu admire him greatly. Now even General Longwu's Mansion has come.

Inviting him to a banquet shows how high he has reached.

That is General Longwu Chen Xuanli, Your Majesty’s most trusted general. Although he has gained quite a reputation in the capital, he is still not qualified to attend such a banquet. I don’t know when he will be able to be like Senior Sister Li.

, Senior Sister Lin and the others are like princes when they come and go, and they are ministers when they come and go?

When he was distracted, the carriage turned back and Gu Zuo stuck his head out of the window: "Do you want to go to General Longwu's Mansion?"

Zhong Xiuxiu suddenly smiled like a flower.

The Longwu Guards were directly under the control of the emperor and were stationed outside the Beigong Gate. General Longwu's Mansion was also not far away, located in Xiudefang on the north side of the palace city.

After Chen Xuanli got off duty today, he was waiting in front of the main hall. In addition to himself, there were also several Zhonglang generals he had met in Nanwu Prefecture that day. Gu Zuo had once presented Longwuwei with 300 shi of rations and 50,000 kilograms of dried meat.

We also gave him two thousand spirit stones, a specialty of Southern Wuzhou, so we are very familiar with each other.

Gu Zuo brought Zhong Xiuxiu to the table, occupying the first seat in the hall. He was the only guest today, so there was no need to refuse.

After sitting down, Chen Xuanli looked at Gu Zuo and Zhong Xiuxiu with a half-smile: "Isn't the Twelfth Lady here? Does this lady look familiar?"

Gu Zuo introduced: "The Twelve Niangs went to Prince Qi's Mansion to study music, and it's hard for me to see her. This is my junior sister Zhong Xiuxiu. She has been taught for twelve years. She is good at dancing. She will be there on the majestic stage.

, The generals are busy with official duties and may not know it, but her water sleeve dance is unique in Chang'an. I am going to the banquet today and I just want to invite her to dance to help the mood. Junior Sister Zhong has become famous recently, and it is still difficult to invite her. "

After a few words, the generals understood what was going on. They knew that it was Gu Zuo who had made a name for himself. Such elegant things were the custom in Chang'an, and the generals liked to hear about it. They all praised it and looked forward to seeing it.

Zhong Xiuxiu went down to prepare, change clothes and put on makeup, and communicate with the musicians. Chen Xuanli waved his hand, the dishes were served, and the music sounded in the corridor, and ladies came up to perform dances. These are the female dancers raised in Chen Xuanli's house.

Although Li Twelve had given him some guidance and his dancing was considered exquisite, it was still not up to the level of Zhong Xiuxiu, and it was just a lively performance.

With the sound of silk and bamboo, Chen Xuanli and Gu Zuo quickly talked about Elder Gongsun. He was very frank and told the general story of his friendship with Li Twelve and Jin Zongfeng over the past year. He thanked Gu Zuo for his kindness to him.

He asked for help, and then said: "Ms. Gongsun has become much more amiable to me. Last month, I invited her to go on an outing with me. However, she has returned to Yunmeng Valley. She is afraid that her past efforts will be in vain."

Gu Zuo had no other solution for the time being and could only wish him all the best.

Zhong Xiuxiu put on dance clothes and performed a performance. Her figure and dancing skills were there. After a few dance steps, she showed a very high level and won a lot of praise on the spot.

After the dance, Zhong Xiuxiu changed back into her regular clothes and sat next to Gu Zuo to serve him food and drink. Her status in the world had not reached that of Li Twelve. If it were Li Twelve, she would either leave after the dance or take a different seat.

She could only sit and serve, toast Chen Xuanli and other generals, and work hard for her status in the world.
