    At midnight, Anling City has not yet fallen asleep during the Lantern Festival. Thousands of families are celebrating the festival with lights. Even the usually dark alleys in the city are a bit brighter than usual.  Jing Chen entered the city at night, avoiding the crowd and walked into an alley facing the street. The lanterns under the eaves stretched his figure until he stopped in front of a door. He raised his hand and touched the closed door lock.  Hearing the sound of the door opening behind him, he took two steps back, jumped onto the wall, jumped into the courtyard, and disappeared before the neighbor went out.  It was dark in the small courtyard. He turned around and walked to the big house in a familiar way, pushed the door open, and lit the lamp on the table with the faint moonlight behind him.  The main room instantly became brighter. Although the candlelight was dim, it was enough to illuminate the situation in the room. There were several bowls and dishes on the four-corner wooden table where they often used to eat. They were all turned upside down. When they opened it, they found porridge and vegetables.  It was plain, with chopsticks and spoons wrapped in a handkerchief and put aside, a pot of tea, and a plate with a piece of paper under it. He opened it and saw a series of charcoal-black handwriting: "Jing Chen,  I don¡¯t know when you will come back. I have prepared food on the table in advance. You can try it and make sure it is not spoiled before eating. There is firewood and water in the kitchen. You can boil some hot water and wash it. There are clean clothes on the bed in your room and the bedding is ready.  After that, you have a good rest and wait for me to come back. "The end is the fourteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, but there is no signature, but a small fish is drawn. Jing Chen read the letter several times, closed his eyes and read a few words to clear his heart.  Jue, suppressing the confusion in his heart, he folded it carefully and put it in his arms. He sat down at the table to eat. He didn't eat much, but he almost finished several dishes. Then he boiled water and washed it according to the instructions in the letter.  , went back to the room, changed clothes, lay down on the bed, covered with a slightly damp quilt, for the whole twenty-four nights, I was able to fall asleep peacefully for the first night.  Yu Shu woke up from her dream, opened her eyes and groaned when she saw the moon-white bed curtain, then slowly sat up, rubbing her forehead and thinking back to last night. She vaguely remembered that Xue Rui asked Xiu Qing to take care of her after she vomited wine, and she  She helped her to the bedroom upstairs, changed out of the dirty clothes, drank hangover tea, and then fell asleep. During this period, she seemed to wake up several times to relieve herself. I wonder if it was Xiaoqing or Xiaodie who was serving her.  "Hiss¡ª¡ª" Yu Shu held her groggy head and wanted to get out of bed. As soon as there was a movement, the curtain was opened and Xiaodie walked in with a tray. Seeing her bare feet on the bed, she hurriedly put down the tray and stepped forward to help her.  , and said: "Girl, please don't move. Go back to bed and lie down. You are sick." Yu Shu was pushed back and covered with quilt. He opened his mouth in confusion, his throat hurt terribly: "Am I sick?" "Yes, girl."  You were drunk and had a fever last night. Sister Xiu diagnosed you and said you had a cold, so I asked my slave to prepare the medicine. You should drink it while it's hot." Xiaodie put a pillow behind her and held the medicine bowl.  Come to her.  Yu Shu raised her hand and touched her forehead. It was a little hot, so she drank the bowl of bitter soup and leaned weakly on the bedside, watching Xiaoqing bring hot water in to wipe her hands and face.  Thinking of Jing Chen¡¯s previous warning, she felt depressed. She was on guard against the disease, but she still couldn¡¯t escape the disease. After all, Jing Chen had said that she would have to get through a minor illness to get over this disaster.  "Xiaodie, bring me a small white medicine bottle in the clothes I wore yesterday." Yu Shu asked the maid to get the medicine bottle, poured out a Ten Thousand Years Pill and drank it with warm water, and then asked them:  "Where is your young master? Did you go back last night?" Xiao Qing said: "Young Master just left in the morning. He left a message that he wanted the girl to rest well in Wangji Building for two days. He will send someone to the house to explain."  It was the Ji family. Yu Shu knew in his heart that Xue Rui was thoughtful and would arrange things properly without her having to ask. So he lay back with peace of mind and fell asleep next to the pillow. He thought hazily that Jing Chen was coming back.  Haven't gotten home yet, haven't eaten yet.  Xiaoqing and Xiaodie saw her sleeping, so she left one person in the room to take care of her, while the other quietly left and went to the private room downstairs to report: "Sir, the girl woke up and just fell asleep again after taking medicine.  When I asked about you, the servant said you were leaving as instructed. " Xue Rui was leaning on the short couch. Hearing this, he put down the book in his hand, pressed his eyebrows with his fingers, stood up from the couch, and whispered: "Let Lao Cui prepare the car.  "Yes." The carriage suddenly stopped at the intersection. Xue Rui, who was concentrating with his eyes closed, was awakened. He frowned and asked outside the car: "Sir, there are many people around the intersection."  "People seem to be reading the notice. There are too many people to pass." "Let's take a detour." Lao Cui said, turned the car and walked to the side street. Unexpectedly, after walking two streets, he was blocked again.  A group of people gathered around the intersection to read the poster. Fortunately, there were not many people this time. He was afraid that if he stopped again, he would offend Xue Rui, so he reduced his speed and tried to squeeze past the roadside. The buzzing chatter on the roadside was inevitable.  In the car, he said intermittently: "Hey, hey, brother, did you see what is written on the list? I heard that the princess Yi Zitong who was born twenty years ago still has a son alive. Is it true or false?  "Ah?" "The list is not written in black and white. You won't squeeze in and look at it by yourself. Go away, don't block the road, I'm going to look for it on the street.If I meet this noble man, I can go to the Yamen to collect a reward.  "Eh? Where are you looking for it? Do you recognize the person?" "Hey, I asked you if it's annoying. Didn't I tell you to see it by yourself? There's a portrait on the poster, but you don't have eyes.  "Xue Rui suddenly opened his eyes and ordered outside the car: "Old Cui, stop." "What's wrong, Master?" "What's going on outside? It's noisy outside." Old Cui looked up for a while, then turned and opened a corner of the curtain.  , said to the car: "I heard people talking on the roadside, as if the yamen had posted notices looking for someone, but it was too far to see clearly." Xue Rui waved the window and looked towards the roadside, but saw the wall in the distance  Downstairs, a group of people were crowded, looking up at the books on the wall, and the people were noisy.  After thinking for a moment, he bent down and got out of the car, asking Lao Cui to wait on the side of the road. He walked into the crowd and quickly reached the front row with his figure. Looking up, he first saw the banner painted with red edges.  On the text, there was a half-length portrait with vivid facial features and a very similar look. The sword-shaped eyebrows, starry eyes, and handsome face actually made him feel familiar.  He moved his eyes to the side and wrote: "Si Tianjian decreed that in the past, Yunhua Yi's son passed away, and he was granted marriage to Shuhui, the benevolent and clean Duanrong princess Luyue. They were made in pairs by heaven and earth, but they died young and young.  They both passed away, but one son left. He went to Taoism as an immortal master. In order to honor his parents' wishes, he served the Three Qing Dynasty on behalf of the Da'an royal family. He practiced Qing Dynasty for more than ten years. Now the Taoist son returns to the court and enters the world of mortals, where he serves as the Tianjian.  It is easy for everyone to know that he is in the capital by looking at the stars, but his mind is pure and he does not know that he is noble, so he cannot return to the court.  Then he ordered the people in the city to search for his traces. Daozi was six feet long, handsome in appearance, liked white clothes, and carried a pair of swords. If anyone heard of it and saw it, he would be rewarded with a thousand taels, or if anyone knew his whereabouts, he would be rewarded heavily - a sign.  After the fifteenth day of the first month of the fourteenth year of Qing Dynasty.  Xue Rui squinted his eyes, then returned to the portrait next to him, stared at it for a moment, his eyes flashed, and he was suddenly surprised: It turned out to be him. Ji Huaishan hurriedly got off the carriage, holding a long scroll in his hand, walked into the mansion, and gave instructions  The steward who came forward said: "Go, call the fourth lady to my study immediately" "Yes, sir." Ji Xingxuan went out for the Lantern Festival last night and came back disappointed. He wrote another thousand taels of IOUs in vain, so he slept tiredly all night.  During the day, Qing was lazy, curled up on the small mahogany chair in the bedroom, meditating on the six-yao general outline. When the maid reported that Yu Shu had not returned last night, she frowned and said: "Let someone watch, when?"  She's back, please come and report." Not long after, the manager came to personally send a message, asking her to go to the study to see Ji Huaishan. It seemed that she was in a hurry, so Ji Xingxuan changed her clothes and hurried there with only Yun He, a maid.  "Grandpa, are you looking for me?" Ji Huaishan was at his desk carefully reviewing the star maps drawn by the Astrology Department in the past few days. Hearing this, he looked up and saw Ji Xingxuan put in the suitcase. He hurriedly waved her forward and asked: "What are you doing with me these days?  The girl is learning the Six Yao Yao, how is she doing now, can you guess?" Ji Xingxuan looked ashamed and said: "I have just started, and I haven't learned the ropes yet, so I can't know anything yet." After finishing speaking, Ji Huaishan frowned and looked disappointed, so he asked curiously.  He said: "Grandfather is so anxious to come to me. What's the matter? Do you want to use these six lines to predict something?" Ji Huaishan looked calm and said: "I just heard the day before yesterday that in the past, Yunhua Yizi Tongluyue grew up.  The princess left a son, who was sent to the Taoist sect to cultivate. After more than ten years, he returned to the court and was now living among the people without a trace. The court ordered that anyone who had the chance to find the whereabouts of the Taoist son would be heavily rewarded. However, it was not easy to find him.  I just thought that I might gain something by borrowing Liu Yao, but you haven't mastered the trick yet, alas." Ji Xingxuan saw her grandfather worried and said with some confusion: "In my grandson's opinion, this matter of searching for people.  Even if you only get some bounty, why should you regret it?" Ji Huaishan shook his head, "You don't know, the Holy Spirit is profound, the late Princess Luyue is the sister of the current Holy One. When the princess passed away, the Holy One gave her three months.  Not thinking about tea and food, after he ascended the throne, he added a six-character title to her, which was unprecedented in this dynasty. Now that Princess Luyue has a son alive, the emperor is anxious to find her. If there is a person who can be found, it will be just a reward. Longyan Yiyue, it is inevitable  It is not known whether he will be promoted to a high official or a successful career. After saying this, he sighed, as if regretting that he did not have this opportunity. He picked up the long scroll on the table and handed it to Ji Xingxuan, saying: "This was issued from Si Tianjian this morning.  You should also read the article on the list.  " Ji Xingxuan took it and opened it to read. Unexpectedly, his attention was first attracted by the person in the painting. At the first glance, he felt that he was familiar. When he was suspicious, he read the article again and stared at the handsome man in the painting.  Man, think about it. She is good at observing faces and possesses the uncanny knowledge of facial expressions. She will never forget anyone she sees. Although the person in this painting is only 70% similar, she is almost certain that she has seen it before.  So, where did you see it?
