Xuchang, Zhangzhai. This is an ordinary house with blue bricks and black tiles, hidden under a row of locust trees. It is the same building as its neighbors. In this metropolis with a population of 150,000, it is inconspicuous at all. . At noon, there was a sudden knock on the door. "Coming, comingwho is it?" Chen Xian had just opened his eyes from his nap when he was driven out of bed by the hurried knock on the door. He hurriedly put on his clothes and went to the yard to open the door. "It's Master. "Old man? Didn't you say you came back in the evening?" As he spoke, the black wooden door opened with a creak, and then he discovered that there were five strangers standing in front of it. The leader is a handsome, tall young man with a feather fan and silk scarf, and he is suave; but the beard under his chin always gives people an unnatural feeling. Behind him were two young men in green clothes. They were not very tall, about sixteen or seventeen years old. A quick look at them revealed that they looked more like two maidservants. Behind the three masters and servants followed an eight-foot-five-inch, burly man with shining eyes. He was wearing a gray gown and a hat, and he looked like a bodyguard. Next to the big man was a book boy, who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, but he was a head taller than the two boys standing in front of him; his dark eyes were rolling around, showing a shrewdness and enthusiasm. alert. When Chen Xian saw that the person knocking on the door was a stranger, he quickly closed the door, leaving only a narrow gap. He turned around and called out to his brothers: "Brother Gao, Brother Ji don't sleep, we have guests!" Hearing Chen Xian's hurried shouting, brothers Gao Yan and Ji Chang, who were taking a nap, quickly pulled on their cloth shoes, arranged their shirts, and walked out of the wing quickly. "Who are you looking for? We don't have many friends in Xuchang. Are you looking for the wrong door?" Chen Xian asked cautiously, holding the door panel with both hands. Mr. Yushan smiled, crossed his arms and saluted, "I'm Lu Qi, from Jinyang. I'm here to pay a visit to Divine Doctor Zhang. He left this address before he left. I guess it's not wrong!" This group of people came here. It was none other than Lu Lingqi and her entourage who had rushed from Jinyang. The young master with the alias "L¨¹ Qi" in Yushan Lunjin is Lu Lingqi who came to Xuchang to look for her parents. The two servants following her are her personal maids, responsible for taking care of her food on the road; the big guy is naturally " Ranger¡± wishes justice. The little book boy is Yuan Mai's servant Zhu Ling. A group of five people left Jinyang and set off for Xuchang at high speed, covering a distance of more than 200 miles every day. If it weren't for the two maidservants' poor riding skills, they could even drive three hundred miles a day, which made Lu Lingqi complain constantly on the road. To be honest, if I had known this, I wouldn't have taken them two with me. Yuan Mai had hundreds of scouts scattered throughout the territory controlled by Cao Cao, secretly engaged in espionage activities. Many of them had cover identities, such as horse dealers, medicinal materials dealers, coal dealers, etc. Some even became minor local officials; It was really easy to clear the customs documents, so Lu Lingqi and her party successfully passed all the checkpoints. It only took five days to enter Xuchang City safely. As for Zhang Zhongjing¡¯s residential address, he told Yuan Mai personally when he left Hanoi. Lu Lingqi and her party followed the map and naturally came to the door easily. "Ohit turns out to be a friend from Bingzhou, disrespect, disrespect!" After hearing Lu Qi's self-reported identity, Chen Xiancai suddenly realized and hurriedly opened the door. Signaling a few people to hurry up and enter the courtyard, "Come in quickly!" After letting Lu Lingqi and her party enter the courtyard, Chen Xian looked around through the crack in the door vigilantly. He didn't feel relieved until he was sure that no one was following him. Engaging in espionage activities, if his whereabouts are exposed, it will be a serious crime of beheading. They couldn't help but be careless. "Everyone, please have some tea!" Just as Chen Xian was watching the movement outside with vigilance, brothers Gao Yan and Jichang had already let Lu Lingqi and her party into the guest room and served tea. These three people are all Zhang Ji's apprentices and have studied medicine with him for more than ten years. Love the same as father and son. When Zhang Ji was an imperial doctor, these disciples worked with him in the imperial medical hall, preparing medicinal materials and doing assistants. They lived a nourishing and leisurely life, so they had a deep affection for the Han royal family. Hearing that Cao Cao's thieves usurped power and deceived the emperor, these passionate young people were all filled with anger. They angrily followed their master to Xuchang, secretly obtained the "Clothes and Belts Edict", and then dedicated it to Yuan Bingzhou. Zhenhan Room. Hearing that Lu Qi signed up for his number, he was sent by Yuan Bingzhou. We are all comrades in the same boat, so we naturally entertained him attentively. Lu Lingqi picked up the tea cup and took a sip. After asking about the identities of several people, she asked again: "NoWhere is Doctor Zhang? You have been waiting to come to Xuchang for nearly half a year. How is things going smoothly? " "Returning to Mr. Lu, our master and apprentice came to Xuchang six months ago and settled down as doctors. In order to avoid Uncle Dong Guo's suspicion, we did not dare to express our intention directly. We could only find opportunities to approach slowly. In the past few months, Master has been to Dong's Mansion many times for medical consultations, and has gradually become familiar with Uncle Dong Guo. It is estimated that in a few days, there will be some clues about the dress code! " Gao Yan is the leader of the three brothers. He immediately stood by and reported the progress of the matter to Lu Qi. As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Chang next to him added: "Early this morning, Uncle Dong Guo sent someone to invite the master and said I had an unbearable headache last night, so I went to my uncle's house early in the morning and didn't come back until about dusk. " The main purpose of Lu Lingqi's coming to Xuchang is to get her parents to Bingzhou. She is not particularly concerned about the "clothing and belt edict". She just uses it as a cover. After briefly asking about the progress of the matter, she will not mention it again. "I am waiting to come to Xuchang, and I have other important things to do. I am afraid that I will cause unnecessary trouble if I stay in a hotel. I want to stay in your house for a few days. Is it convenient?" " Lu Lingqi put down the tea bowl in her hand, glanced at Zhang's house, and asked casually. " The Zhang family's yard is not big or small. There are more than 20 side rooms lined up in rows. I think there should be a place to stay. " Gao Yan Gongshou said "Since he was sent by Yuan Bingzhou, he should be treated well. There are three side rooms, but they are a bit crude. I am afraid that I will wrong Master Lu and others. I wonder if I can condescend to him?" " "As long as we can accommodate, we won't be picky! " At present, senior brothers Gao Yan and Ji Chang led the way, leading Lu Lingqi and the five of them to the backyard to arrange accommodation. Lu Lingqi had a room by herself, and two maids lived next door. Zhu Gongdao and Zhu Ling were on guard in the room at the end. After lunch, Lu Lingqi quietly asked Gao Yan: "Please ask Brother Gao something, do you know where the residence of Marquis Lu Wen is? " Gao Yan stood in the yard and gestured to Lu Lingqi: "Exit the alley in front of the door, turn left and cross three streets and alleys, then go west to an alley, which is about two or three miles away from Cao's Mansion. The red-lacquered door has the name Lu Zhai written on the door plaque. " "Thank you, brother! " Lu Lingqi hugged the feather fan and thanked her, greeted Zhu Ling and Zhu Ao, and prepared to go out to slowly search for her father. After finding her father, she must persuade them to leave with her. " Master Lu, wait a minute, do you have anything important to remind me? " Seeing this handsome young master preparing to go to Lu Mansion, Gao Yan hurriedly called him to stop him. "What else can I do? "Lu Lingqi turned her head and asked with a surprised look. Gao Yangong cupped his hands and whispered: "Master Lu was sent by Yuan Bingzhou. I don't dare to ask why I came. But I would like to remind Mr. Lu that the mansion where Marquis Lu Wen is located is heavily guarded, and there are many hidden sentries. If Mr. Lu goes like this, his identity will be exposed, so he must be careful. " "Thief Cao is indeed cunning. How can he reuse my father?" Is this clearly under house arrest? "Lu Lingqi slapped her feather fan and cursed bitterly in her heart. She thought her father was calling the shots in Xuchang, but she didn't expect the situation to be so miserable. It's really pitiful for a generation of strong generals to be reduced to this! "Thank you, Brother Gao, for reminding me. I understand. Let¡¯s get a feel for the situation first and never act rashly! " Lu Lingqi thanked Gao Yan with her arms folded, and then told Zhu Ao and Zhu Ling to stay and rest in the yard so as not to attract too many people. She quietly went to "Lu's House" to check out the spots before making other plans. " But Zhu But Ling was unwilling and said quietly: "Madam, when I come, the young master has asked me to protect my wife carefully. If you lose a hair, you will never spare me. It's really disturbing that you are in danger alone. Since Madam" "Young Master is not Madam! "Lu Lingqi patted Zhu Ling's head with a feather fan and corrected her seriously. "Yes it's the young master!" Zhu Ling laughed naively, "Since the young master is afraid of attracting attention in large numbers of people, I'll just leave the big man Zhu at home and let me go with you, right?" It's good to have someone to take care of him, a young master and a book boy, so he won't arouse suspicion! " After Lu Lingqi thought about it, she agreed to Zhu Ling's request and left Zhu Ao waiting at home. The two masters and servants strolled onto the street. It was much more prosperous than Jinyang, but Lu Lingqi had no intention of admiring it. She followed the path pointed by Gao Yan and slowly searched for the place where her parents were imprisoned. After wandering around for half an hour, she finally found the house Gao Yan mentioned and saw only one. The elegant courtyard house has about twenty wing rooms from a distance, with blue bricks and black tiles.Hidden in the middle, there are two stone lions in front of the door. The word "L¨¹ Zhai" is written on the plaque. The door is closed. There are ten soldiers in full armor standing guard in front of the house with spears in hand, and no one is allowed to get closer. There are also some secret sentries disguised as civilians around the courtyard, looking at the passers-by with vigilant eyes. The security is really tight beyond imagination. Lu Lingqi took Zhu Ling for a walk past the door. She couldn't find a chance to go in, so she could only return to Zhang's house in frustration. At night, she would find a chance to sneak into Lu's house to visit her parents.
