Chapter 405: No Trace
After all the government offices closed at the You hour, the capital city was still bustling with activity and the market was prosperous.
Gao Xianning, the Imperial Academy student, came out of Hongwu Gate and rode a donkey to the southwest alone. He also sent his servants home.
Gao Xianning lived in the mansion given to him by Emperor Taizong, but he did not take this route home. He did not want to go home today, but to go to the Qinhuai River near Jubao Gate; every ten days or half a month, he would go there and take a look at the scenery along the way.
The jade shop that the King of Han secretly purchased was located between Jubao Gate and Qinhuai River.
The jade shop was closed most of the time, and Gao Xianning might not go in once or twice a year. He usually walked here frequently, and was afraid that someone would notice such a strange detail; so Gao Xianning usually went to another place after passing by Jade Street.

He didn't notice anything strange at all!Mu Sheng frowned and said, "This play, Hibiscus City, written by Shi Hui, is sung in southern tunes. The old woman at the beginning used the Yiyang tune of Jiangxi, but the Hua Dan just now sang a line with the Kunshan tune. The King of Shu is a noble royal family, and the opera troupe he keeps at home should not be so crude."Zhu Gaoxu looked at the stage and said casually: "I don't hear the difference."Mu Sheng made a gesture and turned the music into gestures, "Kunshan accent is originally a majestic tone. She deliberately sang in Yiyang accent and sculpted it to cover up the past with graceful and delicate sounds. However, Kunshan accent is like grinding and chanting back and forth. Here she Couldn’t change it.”Zhu Gaoxu was confused.

The densely packed spears and flags turned into dark shadows against the backdrop of the morning glow. The grand and orderly footsteps beat rhythmically against the sky and earth in the sound of drums; the hurried hooves of horses changed the comfortable and leisurely atmosphere of this place.Under the stone plaque engraved with the two mottled characters "Chengdu", the heavy city gate slowly opened.The King of Han, Zhu Gaoxu, was wearing a green imperial robe and riding a large brown horse.
