Luoyang is named because it is located in the south of Luoshui. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

It was the capital of the Han Empire, with a population of over one million, and was the largest city in the world in the second century AD.

Because at the beginning of the year, he saw through the plot of the Taiping Sect in Luoyang, so in this era of chaos in the world, Luoyang was not involved in the smoke of war. Although the atmosphere in the market is tense, there is still some vitality to speak of. As the capital of the Han Dynasty, it can be said that it is crowded with people, and it is shoulder to shoulder.

At this time, it was the second day of arriving in Luoyang, and Li Qin walked alone on the streets of Luoyang, feeling the style and atmosphere of Luoyang, while walking towards his own destination - the mansion of Lu Zhi, the general of Beizhong Lang in the south of the city. Because he was just going to report greetings, Li Qin did not inform Lu Zhi's family in advance, but chose to go directly.

From the inn to Lufu, it is necessary to cross half of Luoyang City. In terms of distance, it is not very close, and most people will find a horse, a vehicle, or something in the city to get around. But Li Qin did not do this, and when he saw such a flourishing ancient city for the first time from later generations, he immediately got a little carried away and carefully tasted the prosperous taste of this ancient capital.

“…… Increase the old Zhou, Shuluoyi. The fan is majestic, showing wings. Guanghanjing is in Zhuxia, and it is extremely important in all directions. So in the imperial city, the palace is bright, and the court is beautiful. Extravagance is insurmountable, thrift cannot be extravagant. Outside, because the field is used as a garden, and the spring is filled into a swamp. The algae is used for diving fish, and the grass is used for beasts. The system is the same as Liang Zou, and the friendship is in line with the spirit. ......" Li Qin walked leisurely, muttering this sentence from the Eastern Han Dynasty Bangu's "Eastern Capital Fu", but he couldn't help but feel a little concerned about the tragedy that happened to this city a few years later: "Now you are still glad that you can escape the catastrophe." But I didn't want that five years later, a fire set by Dong Feifei would turn the prosperity of the city into dust...... It's really sad and lamentable. ”

Li Qin thought about it and shook his head gently, he wanted to put this future thing aside, but he didn't want to have some nostalgia in his heart.

"If I could, maybe I should try to save this city from disaster." The casual Li Qin had such a thought in his heart.

After all, after seeing such a prosperous and peaceful city, as long as a person of right mind would not think about destroying him. Most people hope that good things can exist for a longer time.

After strolling through the streets and alleys for an hour, Li Qin finally saw Lu Zhi's mansion. This is a mansion that looks atmospheric, but is actually simple. Li Qin stood on the stone steps with the gate closed, looked at the faintly mottled lacquered mahogany door, looked at the green tiles that looked a little outdated on the gate, and felt the smell of rushing from the palace.

Everyone said that Lord Lu Zhi was innocent and self-disciplined, and he was a great Confucian in the world, and he enjoyed the popularity of people at home. Looking at his mansion today, this is true. Li Qin sighed at this.

For Lu Zhi, Li Qin didn't have much contact with him, and most of the people followed Liu Bei to meet with him. At that time, he only felt that this little old man was very serious, and he had the old-fashioned taste of the teaching director of later generations, which was really difficult to get close to, and he didn't feel the rest deeply.

Li Qin didn't recognize the legends about him in the world, thinking that there were many rumors. It was only after seeing that his mansion was so simple today, without the slightest luxury, that he realized that the rumors about Lu Zhi in the world were not exaggerated in the slightest - he was indeed an admirable Qing official.

It's just that......

“…… Unfortunately, the emperor seemed to trust those eunuchs more. Lord Lu Zhi's biggest crisis, I'm afraid it's happening right now. Li Qin could only shake his head powerlessly. Now he is still too weak, no matter what dissatisfaction he has in his heart, he has never had the power to change the entire world.

Standing outside the door, Li Qin took a deep breath, tidied up his clothes, and stepped forward and knocked on the door of the Lu Mansion.

"Buckle ......" The crisp sound of the door sounded, and then a slightly old voice asked inside the door: "Who is outside the door?" ”

"Under Li Qintian, he walked under the door of Lord Lu Zhi. I came to Luoyang on business and visited the house on the way. Li Qin bowed his head outside the door and replied respectfully.

The door was opened suddenly, and an old man with pale beard poked his head out, glanced at Li Qin suspiciously, and said very strangely: "Your Excellency is my master's door?" I've never heard of it. The old man went out as an official and rarely communicated and returned home...... You said that you are a subordinate of the master, what proof do you have? ”

"This is Lord Lu's token, I think you should have seen it." Li Qin said as he took out a swarthy wooden sign from his bosom and handed it to the old man. The old man took a closer look at it and made sure that it was owned by the Lu Mansion, and immediately rejoiced: "Well, this is indeed my master's token." Since you have this token, it means that you are your own person. Not...... Come on in! What are you still doing outside......"

As he spoke, the old man opened the door and welcomed Li Qin into the front hall, letting Li Qin stay here for a while and ordering someone to serve tea. He himself rushed to the backyard with unimaginable speed at this age, unable to shout at his own: "Big young master, big young master!" The old man sent someone back to report safety. Come, come, people are waiting in the antechamber. ”

Then there was a commotion.

After a while, a young man entered, only to see that he was about twenty-seven or eight years old, more than eight feet tall, his face was like a crown of jade, his demeanor was very good, he was dressed in a cyan brocade robe, and his eyebrows were seven or eight points similar to Lu Zhi's, but he was personable, and he had a bookish atmosphere, which was the eldest young master in the old man's mouth.

Li Qin hurriedly got up to greet him, and then the guests and hosts sat down and exchanged names. This young man's surname is Lu Mingjie, who is Lu Zhi's eldest son, who served as a Langzhong in the court, and today he is resting at home. Ben was studying in the backyard, but he couldn't help but be surprised when he heard that his father unexpectedly sent someone to report safety.

At that moment, after he met Li Qin, he immediately opened his mouth to ask about Lu Zhijun's previous affairs. Obviously, he also felt a little strange about such an unreasonable thing.

Facing Lu Jie's hesitation, Li Qin smiled in his heart. Although he didn't come directly from before Lu Zhijun, he also had a deep connection with Lu Zhi in the end.

At this time, he and Lu Zhi were only separated for more than ten days, and it was expected that there would be no changes before the army, so he did not hesitate to say what he said, it was definitely abnormal, and he faintly added a lot of convincing power to what he said. When Lu Jie heard him say that he was sure, he thought it was quite true, but he became more and more convinced of him.

After that, the two started talking. Of course, Lu Jie studied under his father and had excellent insight. And Li Qinyin came from later generations, read more than 10,000 books, and memorized a basket of all kinds of novel and sharp views, whether it was astronomy, geography, or local folk customs, the art of war and politics can say a lot, but it gave Lu Jie a great shock on the broad.

After a conversation, the two spoke very eagerly, and they felt that they hated seeing each other late. I don't know how long we talked about it, but there was a sudden movement in the front yard.

But when he heard the sound of hurried footsteps, he saw a young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old swearing and swearing through the door. At this time, he was resentful, and there was a sense of rudeness between his words and deeds.

Lu Jie in the hall glanced at the young man, his brows furrowed slightly, and he reprimanded sternly: "Brother Jian, why are you fighting with others again." Don't you know that my Lu family is a family of poetry and books, how can I be as strong and brave as those gangsters in the market? is so reckless and competitive, and immediately fists and kicks each other if you don't agree with each other, I'm afraid that the ancestors of my Lu family will be ashamed of you. ”

Lu Jie said this really a little heavily. But the young man pouted nonchalantly. He had already heard a lot of similar words, and he had long been surprised.

At the moment, he didn't care what was going on in the hall, he just sat down on the ground with a big grin, and said with a smile: "Hey, big brother, don't talk about me anymore." Instead of you using these kung fu words to teach me a lesson, you should think about how to save my father. ”

"Rescue my father? What's going on here? Lu Jie was shocked when he heard this, stood up suddenly, stepped in front of Lu Jian in three steps and two steps, lifted Lu Jian's collar, glared at him fiercely, and looked back at Li Qin, who also showed a surprised expression, and asked in surprise: "Say, what do you know?" ”

"I also heard Zhang Qu's bastards say. His Majesty the Emperor sent Zuo Feng to inspect his father's army. Na Zuo Feng was greedy for money and asked his father for a bribe, but his father refused his request. So, Zuo Feng returned to the dynasty to frame his father, saying that the city of Guangzong was ruined, and his father did not want to attack the city, but sat and waited for the sky to harvest the horns. When the emperor heard this, he was furious, so he decided to send someone to escort his father back to Beijing to await trial, and worshiped Dong Zhuo as the general of Dongzhonglang, and led the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to take over his father's duties. Zhang Qu's bastard said that his stepfather, Zhang Rang, decided to try to get rid of his father after his father returned to Beijing. ”

"What?" Hearing Lu Jian say these amazing things in such detail, Lu Jie couldn't help but panic: "How can this be...... My father has few soldiers, so it's good to be able to contain Zhang Jiao, how could the emperor order my father to be taken down because his father didn't attack the city? Isn't this a mess? What to do...... If his father was really escorted back to Beijing, a villain like Zhang Rang would never let his father go. ”

"Don't rush! Calm down, calm down! Panic won't solve the problem. Now we need meditation, and only meditation can solve the problem. Seeing that Lu Jie was also at a loss, Li Qin unceremoniously opened his mouth.

When he opened his mouth, Lu Jie and Lu Jian had the backbone, and both of them looked at Li Qin with blank eyes, hoping that he could come up with a set of solutions to solve the problem.

Facing the expectant eyes of the two, Li Qin made an arrangement without giving in: "How to rescue Lord Lu Zhi, it is useless for a few of us to discuss here." Lord Lu Zhi has been an official for many years, and he must have known close friends, so I would like to ask the two sons of Nalu Mansion to visit the mansions of those adults and ask them to come forward to deal with this matter. Even if we don't get the promise of rescue, we can know more or less, which is very good for our next action. ”

"Well, I understand! My brother and I are going to visit them. Lu Jie nodded affirmatively when he heard this, and approved Li Qin's method.

"Well, in that case, let's say goodbye. Well, I will also inform Lord Huangfu Song and Lord Zhu Jun of the situation here. They are Lu Zhi's comrades, and I think they will also write to the emperor and ask His Majesty to act cautiously. This time I came to Beijing, I stayed at the Min'an Inn in the west of the city, and if you have any news, go there to find me. Li Qin said.
