After kissing Feng Man gently, Lu Xiaoxian walked out of the house, and sure enough, he saw Lingzhuzi waiting for him.

Lu Xiaoxian smiled and said, "Let's go!" ”

Ling Zhuzi didn't speak, just nodded, and the two walked side by side to the gate of the Shangqing Palace.

Lu Xiaoxian turned his head to look at the spirit bead as he walked.

The spirit bead has an open forehead and light eyebrows, which is the appearance of wisdom and wisdom. The nose is high and straight, the lips are red and the mouth is small, showing the determination and courage hidden under the weak exterior.

It stands to reason that Lu Xiaoxian's behavior was very impolite, but Lingzhuzi was not like an ordinary woman twisting and acting, and said lightly without squinting: "Have you seen enough?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian retracted his gaze and nodded solemnly: "Enough has been seen!" ”

The two stopped talking and continued on their way.

Perhaps the atmosphere was too dull, Ling Zhuzi had nothing to say and asked, "Master Lu, how was your rest last night?" ”

"Not good!"

"Why?" Lingzhuzi was stunned.

Lu Xiaoxian punned: "I don't know where a mouse came from, making noises outside the window from time to time, it's very noisy!" ”

As soon as the words fell, two red clouds appeared on Ling Zhuzi's face, and his eyebrows were raised.

Last night, despite the wind and rain outside, Lu Xiaoxian was keenly aware that someone was eavesdropping outside the window. Lu Xiaoxian guessed that it should be a spirit bead, so he deliberately said that there were rats at that time. The person outside the window listened and quietly left.

At this moment, Lu Xiaoxian saw that Lingzhuzi's face was wrong, and he was even more sure that the person outside the window last night was her.

Ling Zhuzi is generous by nature, although the plain white skin on his face suddenly appeared, but he quickly calmed down: "Master Lu, the poor road will be sent here, and I will leave!" ”

After that, Lingzhuzi no longer paid attention to Lu Xiaoxian, and Shi Ran left.

……

After listening to Shangguan Wan'er, Wu Zetian muttered: "Although Feng Man is a person who treats crimes, it can be seen that this Lu Xiaoxian is still a person who values love and righteousness. ”

"I think so too, it's better to value friendship than to be cold-blooded." Speaking of this, Shangguan Wan'er hesitated and said, "It's just that Zhang said there, I don't know Your Majesty'......"

Wu Zetian has always said that this time Lu Xiaoxian made Zhang said that he was disgraced, and Shangguan Wan'er was very worried that Wu Zetian would be unhappy because of this.

"It's okay!" Wu Zetian said lightly, "It's also a good thing to accept Zhang's temperament, he is a little too bookish, only if he has a good experience, he will be of great use in the future." ”

Hearing Wu Zetian say this, Shangguan Wan'er was relieved.

……

Returning to his own mansion in Luoyang City, Lu Xiaoxian changed his clothes, and then put on a person~ mask and went out. Of course, it was impossible for him to leave the gate in a dignified manner, so he had to sneak out of the backyard over the wall to find Tang Qian's traces.

Lu Xiaoxian is very confident, with someone~ mask as a disguise, as long as he can smell the dark fragrance on Tang Qian's body, he is sure to find Tang Qian, and then follow Tang Qian unconsciously, so that he can quickly figure out her intention to return to Luoyang.

But Lu Xiaoxian went around all the corners of the city and didn't find anything, which made him a little discouraged.

In desperation, he could only secretly return to the house like a thief, took off his mask and returned to his original appearance, Lu Xiaoxian asked people to serve a cup of tea and sit there thinking carefully.

It seems that he thought things were a little too simple, thinking that it would be easy to find Tang Qian, but he couldn't smell the dark fragrance,

There is no point in what you do.

Could it be that Tang Qian has already completed the task and left Luoyang?

In fact, even if Tang Qian is still in Luoyang, as long as he hides and doesn't appear, Lu Xiaoxian still has nothing to do.

To find someone in the huge Luoyang City is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, not to mention Tang Qian, who is still proficient in disguise techniques, it is even more difficult. Even if it takes time to find a needle in a haystack, Lu Xiaoxian is most lacking time now.

The day after tomorrow, Wu Sansi will be in command of the expedition, and Lu Xiaoxian must rush to Yingzhou before Wu Sansi.

It seemed that there was no hope for finding Tang Qian, so Lu Xiaoxian could only retreat to the next best thing, and he asked Zhang Meng to call him over.

Zhang Meng came into the house and looked at Lu Xiaoxian in surprise: "Xiaoxian, have you been in the house all the time?" ”

"Yes! What's wrong? Lu Xiaoxian said casually.

"That's not right!" Zhang Meng scratched his head and said, "I haven't seen you a few times, I thought you were out!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian sneaked out to find Tang Qian and did not tell Zhang Meng. The old slippery head gave his own people~ The mask, Zhang Meng also didn't know.

Before he could tell Zhang Meng about this, Lu Xiaoxian deliberately diverted the topic and asked, "You are in a hurry to find me, is there something wrong?" ”

In the morning, not long after Lu Xiaoxian slipped out, Long Zhuang, the head of the Long's Dart Bureau, sent someone to send an invitation to ask Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng to go to the banquet together in the evening. Zhang Meng took the invitation and came to Lu Xiaoxian, but he never saw him.

After listening to Zhang Meng's speech, Lu Xiaoxian was silent for a while.

Originally, Lu Xiaoxian planned to have dinner with the two Zhang brothers tonight, by the way. He called Zhang Meng to come and let him prepare, and he would set off for Yingzhou City early tomorrow morning. Who knew that now that Long Zhuang sent an invitation, this made Lu Xiaoxian a little in a dilemma.

I want to go to Long Zhuang's banquet tonight, and the dinner with the two Zhang brothers can only be held tomorrow night, and it will be too hasty to come out the day after tomorrow. It seems a little unreasonable not to go to the banquet, after all, when he said goodbye to Long Zhuang in Taozhou, Lu Xiaoxian promised Long Zhuang to visit him when he returned to Luoyang.

After thinking about it for a while, Lu Xiaoxian decided to adopt a compromise method: go to the banquet on time tonight, invite the two Zhang brothers to eat together at noon tomorrow, and then set off after lunch, and the departure time was pushed from early morning to early afternoon.

……

At the time of the unitary, a group of people gathered in the largest private room of the restaurant.

In addition to Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng, Long Zhuang also invited Lin Yun, Leng Qing, Guo Zhen and Chen Xuanli, all of whom were familiar faces who went to Taozhou with Lu Xiaoxian.

The only stranger was a friend brought by Guo Zhen and Chen Xuanli, this person's name was Wei Qing, the official residence left prison guard Zhonglang General.

Guo Zhen and Chen Xuanli's face, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but give it, he greeted Wei Qing very politely, and then sat down with everyone.

Long Zhuang shouted to Xiao Er, and said to Lu Xiaoxian with a smile: "Master Lu, I don't know what you like to eat, so I won't order until you arrive, don't mind!" You're welcome, just order your favorite food! ”

Xiao Er stood aside with his hands down, looking at Lu Xiaoxian respectfully.

Lu Xiaoxian didn't pay attention to Xiao Er, just looked at Long Zhuang and sighed, shook his head and said, "Master of the Dragon Bureau, you have no sincerity at all!" ”

The second monk of Long Zhuang was puzzled, and asked with a puzzled expression: "Master Lu, I invited you to the banquet from the bottom of my heart, I don't know why you said this?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian said seriously: "Who is Luoyang City."

I don't know if Zuixiaolou and Qiufeng Po are not dealing with each other, and I am the owner of Qiufengpo, the owner of the Dragon Bureau wants to choose Zuixiaolou for a treat, this is obviously trying to embarrass me, where does the sincerity come from? ”

"Huh? And what's going on? Long Zhuang was stunned.

Long Zhuang has never cared about the affairs of the restaurant, and he knows nothing about the grievances between the drunken Xiaolou and the autumn wind. Hearing Lu Xiaoxian say this at this moment, he felt quite embarrassed, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Leng Qing is the head of the criminal department, and he knows everything Lu Xiaoxian said, he said on the side: "Lu Gongzi is not the master of the Dragon Bureau, he is out on darts all year round, how can he know these things!" It's really not good, let's change places! ”

Long Zhuang nodded hurriedly: "What I said is, let's change places and go to the autumn wind!" ”

"He who does not know is not guilty! Dragon Master, I'm kidding you! We've known each other for so long, do you think I'm like a person with a small belly? Lu Xiaoxian laughed and said, "There is no need to change places, it is only natural for us to pay money for dinner, can they still out?" ”

After that, Lu Xiaoxian waved at Xiao Eryi and said, "Go, call your shopkeeper!" ”

Xiao Er agreed and quickly left the private room.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Xiaoxian glanced at Wei Qing, who they met for the first time, and then asked Guo Zhen and Chen Xuanli, "Are you two friends with General Wei?" ”

"That's right!" Chen Xuanli replied, "The three of us have similar personalities and temperaments, and we hate to see each other late, so we have become friends!" I brought General Wei to the banquet today, just to introduce him to Mr. Lu! ”

"Oh?" Lu Xiaoxian looked quite interested, "Why haven't you two mentioned General Wei before?" ”

Listening to Chen Xuanli's introduction, Lu Xiaoxian learned the origin of Wei Qing.

Wei Qing was originally an errand boy in the Longyou Army, but was transferred to the imperial capital five years ago as the general of the left prison guard. When he went to Taozhou with Lu Xiaoxian, neither Chen Xuanli nor Guo Zhen knew Wei Qing. Returning from Taozhou, Chen Xuanli and Guo Zhen met Wei Qing by chance. Because of their temperaments and personalities, the three of them became friends and almost talked about everything.

In this expedition to the Khitan, Chen Xuanli, Guo Zhen and Wei Qing are all one of the twenty-eight generals appointed by Wu Zetian, and they will go to Yingzhou with Wu Sansi together. Hearing that Chen Xuanli and Guo Zhen were coming to the banquet, Wei Qing was going to follow, and it happened that Chen Guo and the others also intended to introduce Wei Qing to Lu Xiaoxian, so they brought him along

After listening to Chen Xuanli's speech, Lu Xiaoxian hugged his fists at Wei Qing and said: "Since General Wei is good friends with Brother Guo and General Chen, they are also my good friends, they are all my own people here, General Wei is welcome!" ”

"Where, where!" Wei Qing said haughtily, "I always heard General Chen and General Guo mention Lu Gongzi, and when I saw Lu Gongzi heroically today, I would inevitably give Lu Gongzi a few more glasses of wine later!" ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" Lu Xiaoxian nodded, and chatted with Leng Qing and Lin Yun again.

Although Lu Xiaoxian did not have any waves on his face, he had doubts in his heart.

Wei Qing has been in Luoyang for five years, why didn't he know Chen Xuanli and Guo Zhen before, but after returning from Taozhou, he became friends with them, is it too much of a coincidence?

Wei Qing is also one of the twenty-eight generals, which makes Lu Xiaoxian can't help but think of the spy in the army that Mr. Wang said.

Mr. Wang can let Fang Hatshui stay in Yingzhou for three years, can't he let Wei Qing lurk in Luoyang for five years?

Although Lu Xiaoxian was suspicious of Wei Qing, it was just a guess, but there was no evidence.
