Chapter 569: A flash of inspiration
, Chapter 570 had a flash of inspiration
Last night, after the army decided the situation in Beijing, Lu Heng, who was homesick, couldn't wait to rush home to take a look.
As expected, his mansion was already empty. There was no one left.
In the end, Lu Heng, who was flustered, sent someone to search around. In an inconspicuous cellar, a scrawny servant was found.
According to the servant, five days ago, his house was surrounded by officers and soldiers, and all the ladies were abducted and taken to the palace. After that, he hid here and did not dare to go out.
It's been five days, and the ladies haven't heard anything at all.
After hearing this news, Lu Heng's expression suddenly turned cold, turned his head, and stared coldly at the imperial city in the north.
Beside him, Hong Quan and the others couldn't help but shiver coldly after seeing the flickering flickering cold light in Lu Heng's squinted eyes.
The surrounding air, as if in an instant, entered the cold winter month and counted nine days.
Last night, Lu Heng had been worried. It wasn't until this morning that it returned to normal.
……
"It's scary, huh!" Su Qianqian remembered Lu Heng's gloomy face last night, and she still had palpitations in her heart. He stuck out his tongue and said cutely.
Lu Heng smiled and didn't speak, but just held Su Qianqian's hand with a little force.
"Dragons swim in shallow water?" Probably having no clue, Lu Heng turned his head and asked Su Qianqian with a smile: "Do you know what it means?" ”
"Shallow water?" Su Qianqian really thought about it seriously, and while subconsciously kneading Lu Heng's shoulders, she thought seriously: "Shallow water, did the person who sent the intelligence mishear, is it diving, not shallow water?" ”
"Heh...... this information is...... What did you just say? After Lu Heng said with a smile, he suddenly thought of the sentence that Su Qianqian had just said, and thought about it in his heart, as if he had opened a door, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Hurriedly turned his head, grabbed Su Qianqian's hand, and asked eagerly, "What did you just say?" ”
"Diving? The concubine said, did the person who sent the information hear it wrong? Su Qianqian didn't know what to do, she was startled by Lu Heng's excitement, and whispered.
"Yes, that's it!" With joy in his heart, Lu Heng couldn't help but hug Su Qianqian and kiss her on the face. laughed excitedly, turned his head, and said to Wang Shichao and the others with an inexplicable face: "I think, I know that Your Majesty is under house arrest by them?" ”
"Bring the map of the palace, herald, and call that Lu craftsman over!" After Lu Heng stood up, he first gave an order to Wang Shichao, and then turned his head to the herald guarding the door.
After the herald went out, Lu Heng took a deep breath and said to Wang Shichao and Hong Fatzi word by word: "Dive, Your Majesty is very likely to be imprisoned under the middle of the lake in the Shu Palace!" ”
When Wang Shichao and others heard this, they were immediately overjoyed. However, after the ecstasy, he thought that the King of Shu had treated his father with such vicious means. The two of them couldn't help but gasp and curse secretly, they were really vicious.
Then, after the herald walked into the room with a trembling and panicked Lu craftsman with a map, a group of people gathered around Lu Heng.
"Craftsman Lu, you said before that you participated in the renovation of the Shu Wangfu three years ago, didn't you?" Lu Heng looked at the map, and after looking at it carefully, he turned his head, looked at the short and thin craftsman Lu beside him, and asked with a smile.
"Yes!" Craftsman Lu nodded hurriedly and said: "Three years ago, some people came to Beijing to find the villain, and asked the villain to find friends and help repair a mansion!" Later, after arriving, the villain knew that it was the mansion of His Royal Highness the King of Shu! ”
"Did you repair the lake in the garden at that time?" Lu Heng asked this, and his heart suddenly became nervous.
Craftsman Lu thought about it, bowed to Lu Heng, and replied seriously: "At that time, after repairing the mansion. The official who took the lead once asked the villain to probe the depth of the bottom of the lake, and also asked the villain some things about the expansion of the lake in the park. These are all things that need to be done to expand the lake, and the villain estimates that it will definitely need to be repaired! ”
"You mean to say...... You guys are just measuring, not directly involved?? Lu Heng frowned and looked at Craftsman Lu.
Craftsman Lu nodded and said, "Yes, my lord, but judging from the villain's many years of experience in plumbing." All of this is done in preparation for the expansion of the lake. Moreover, at that time, beside the big official who took the lead, there was also a craftsman with a heavy Sichuan sound. The villain figured out that in the end, it was the man who was in charge of expanding the lake! ”
"None of your people participated in the expansion of the lake at that time?" Lu Heng was a little disappointed in his heart, and asked unwillingly.
If the King of Shu found someone else to expand the lake in the garden, it would be difficult to find the secret of the lake.
Craftsman Lu thought about it and shook his head slightly.
Seeing this, Lu Heng was immediately disappointed.
After slowly sitting down, I stared at the bright sunlight outside the window.
"Later, however, the official spent a hundred taels and asked the villain to help him draw a drawing of the lake in the park." Beside him, Craftsman Lu thought about it and said in a low voice.
When Lu Heng heard this, he was immediately overjoyed. After standing up suddenly, he grabbed Craftsman Lu's hand and said eagerly: "Can you still remember the details of that picture?" ”
When Craftsman Lu heard this, he smiled, nodded, and said a little shyly: "That is the most proud work of the villain in his life, and the villain remembers it clearly!" ”
"Quick, quick!" Lu Heng was overjoyed, hurriedly greeted the herald, and said eagerly: "Hurry up and put pen and ink on paper and inkstone!" ”
After the pen, ink, paper and inkstone were served, Lu Heng gave up the main seat and let the Lu craftsman sit down. personally handed the brush to him: "Please also ask Brother Lu to help draw another one!" ”
After Craftsman Lu sat down, he was immediately embarrassed when he heard Lu Heng ask him to redo a pair. stood up, looked at Lu Heng, and hesitated: "This official, this, I'm afraid this picture can't be drawn!" ”
"What's wrong?" Lu Heng frowned and asked.
"That's right!" A flash of fear flashed in Craftsman Lu's eyes, and he explained embarrassedly: "Before, after repairing the mansion for that big official, the leading big official sternly warned the villain not to leak the drawings. Otherwise, you must give the villain a good look! Later, one of the villain's friends showed off his job to someone after he was drunk. Just a little bit of inconsequential stuff. Someone killed the next day! These people, villains can't afford to mess with them! ”
Thinking of the old friend who died on the street, Craftsman Lu's eyes were full of fear.
"Don't worry, old man!" When Lu Heng heard this, he raised his hand to stop Wang Shichao's madness. Then he turned his head, stretched out his hand and pressed on the old man's shoulder, and said with relief: "Lu Mou guarantees that your family is safe and sound!" ”
What a big breath!
Hear this young man, say this. The old man's first reaction was disbelief, thinking he was bragging.
After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head and put down the brush.
"Damn, don't be embarrassed...... Wang Shichao couldn't help it, and suddenly became furious. Roll up your sleeves and come up and beat this old man.
"Sit down!" Lu Heng glared at him and reprimanded him harshly.
If torture works, why am I bothering here? The old man was the only one who knew the inside story, and if he didn't want to, he would make a slight change to the drawing. That's a bad thing.
Haven't you heard that if you offend anyone, don't offend the craftsman, and don't deceive the fortune teller if you deceive anyone?
Wang Shichao saw that the military advisor had a cold face, and stared at him with unkind eyes. In fear in his heart, he bowed his head and said no more.
Lu Heng turned his head, looked at the old craftsman who turned pale with fright, and said lightly: "Old man, don't be afraid. Lu said that if he can keep your family safe, he can keep your family safe. Even if the sky falls, it can also make your family safe and sound. I know you take my word for it. But, old man, do you know who he is? ”
While speaking, Lu Heng pointed to the fat man Hong who was standing beside him and asked with a smile.
Seeing that Lu Heng was about to introduce himself, Hong Fatzi hurriedly tidied up his clothes, coughed, and raised his head to make a tall appearance.
"Him?" The old man's dim eyes were full of doubts, and he shook his head and said, "Little Lao'er doesn't know!" ”
When the fat man heard this, he was immediately deflated and lowered his head, like a defeated rooster.
Lu Heng smiled and said lightly: "His name is Hong Quan." Those corrupt officials in Da Zhou called him Hong to shave his head! ”
Hung shaves his head?
Hearing this name, the old man's eyes lit up after thinking about it.
He stood up suddenly, looked at it in disbelief, and looked at Lu Heng's fat man with resentment. Surprised: "Hong Qingtian, the waiter of the Criminal Department? ”
Originally, Hong Fatzi heard Lu Heng introduce himself by his most unsightly nickname, and he was quite resentful in his heart. But I heard the old man shout out from the sky. Suddenly smiled, triumphant. After coughing, Hong Quan slowly lifted his robe, untied the jade plate hanging from his waist, and shook it in front of the old man.
"That's right, he is the squire of the Criminal Department, Hong Quan!" Lu Heng nodded and smiled slightly. Then, before Craftsman Lu could recover from the shock, he pointed his finger at Wang Shichao beside him.
"His name is Wang Shichao, and he is the commander of the Tokyo garrison, uh, that is, the general of Nanying! It's the head of the Royal Foresters in your mouth! Afraid that the old man wouldn't know what Zhonglang would be, Lu Heng added with a smile.
Wang Shichao snorted, unhappily took out the talisman on his waist, shook it in front of the old man's eyes, and put it in his pocket.
After listening to Lu Heng's introduction to Hong Fatman, the old man was already stunned. After Lu Heng introduced Wang Shichao's identity, the old man was instantly stupid.
This, this, what's going on today?
The lord of the court, who is rare to see on weekdays, why did he all appear all at once. Moreover, he looked at himself very enthusiastically. Well, except for that General Zhonglang.
After introducing the two of them, Lu Heng poured a cup of tea with his own hands and handed it to the old man's trembling hand. Seeing the old man's shocked appearance, he asked with a slight smile: "Now, you should always believe it!" ”
"Then, my lord, you are ......" The old man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his knees a little weak. A smile that was more ugly than crying appeared on his face, and said, "You are ......"
"Dogs look down on people!" Wang Shichao pursed his lips, glanced at the old man with disdain, turned his head away, and stopped talking.
"Haha, don't be afraid, old man!" Just now, the old man's sentence was blue, and the fat man called Hong smiled and was in a good mood. Seeing that the old man was glared at by Wang Shichao and almost knelt down, Hong Fatzi hurriedly walked over and sang with a red face. Stretched out his hand, patted the old man's thin shoulder very kindly, pointed at Lu Heng, and introduced very solemnly: "This master is Lu Heng, Lu Yongzheng." Emperor of the Great Zhou! The Prince's teacher and a friend of His Majesty the Emperor. Now it is the Great Zhou, a figure above 10,000 people under one person. Old man, this master is a fairy-like figure, and he can't see each other on weekdays. He said to keep you safe, and then he will keep you safe. Even the Jade Emperor can't stop it, haha! ”
Hong Fatzi's voice as an emperor completely crushed the old man's last defense.
The emperor, the prince's teacher, and the emperor's friend's friend.
This young emperor, no one in the world knows who doesn't know. The people have never seen or heard of this legendary man who is only twenty years old and has infinite scenery.
Destroy the Qingcheng Demon Road, defeat the Dongying Japanese Kou, recover Goryeo, and lead the army north to resist the Turks. Domestic and foreign affairs, all of which are incompatible. In particular, the quality of life of the people has improved significantly under his recommendations.
That's a benefit that you can feel close to your body!
Now, when the old man heard that in front of him, this kind and kind person like the young man next door was now, and after the emperor was high, he was immediately panicked.
Himself, he dared to sit on the emperor's chair just now, and he also drank the tea that the emperor respected.
This, this is a capital offense!
Thinking of this, the old man could no longer suppress the uneasiness in his heart. Fell to his knees with a thud. With a trembling voice, he kowtowed like pounding garlic and said, "My lord, my lord spares my life." The villain has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and he collided with the adult, the villain should be damned! ”
Plop, plop, in this room of the inn, for a while, only the old man's begging for mercy and kowtowing could be heard.
Seeing this, Lu Heng glanced at Hong Fatzi speechlessly.
Seeing that the other party smiled, he raised his head and played with leprosy. Lu Heng shook his head helplessly, bent down and stretched out his hands, and helped the old man up.
"Don't be afraid, old man, we invite you here today just to let you draw the picture you drew at the beginning. You can rest assured that Lu promises that in this big week, no one can hurt your family! Lu Heng pressed the old man back on the chair and said with a slight smile.
The old man's buttocks were just next to the chair, and he suddenly came back to his senses, and hurriedly picked it out and said, "The villain doesn't dare, the villain doesn't dare!" The villain just draws on the ground, and the ground just paints! ”
Lu Heng saw the old man's trembling body, and he looked extremely frightened. I knew that if I let him sit on a chair and draw, I would not feel at ease in painting. It's not good to draw something wrong when you're nervous. So, no longer forcing him, he waved his hand, and let the herald put the ink, ink, paper and inkstone on the ground.
The old man glanced at Lu Heng nervously. After seeing Lu Heng nodding, he carefully took the brush, lifted his robe, and slowly lay on the ground. Holding the brush in his hand, after carefully recalling for a moment, the trembling brush in his hand also stabilized.
After taking a deep breath, the end of the pen in his hand was dipped in ink, and the first line was drawn steadily.
Lu Heng and the others were half-squatting on the ground, quietly waiting for the old man's drawings.
Beside her, Su Qianqian lowered her head, pursed her lips and smiled after seeing Lu Heng seriously looking at the drawings that were gradually taking shape on the ground.
"What are you laughing at?" Lu Heng turned his head and asked with a smile as if he had long eyes behind his head.
was found snickering by Lu Heng, Su Qianqian's pretty face was a little red.
"I really didn't see it, a name scared the people almost to the soul. Master Lu, you are really majestic! Su Qianqian pursed her lips and smiled, deliberately sarcastic.
"Does that sound like a compliment to me?" Lu Heng groped his chin, thought for a moment, and replied seriously.
"Well, it's a compliment!" With a smile in his eyes, he nodded seriously. Holding back a smile, holding back a lot of hard work.
Lu Heng turned his head and glanced at him. And then, well, one more look.
Turning his head, he looked at the pen in the hand of the old craftsman beside him, and said to himself: "At night, use the rear entry style!" ”
When she said a word, Su Qianqian suddenly blushed, stretched out her hand shyly, and pinched Lu Heng's waist: "The dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth, so he ignores you!" ”
"Haha!" Lu Heng laughed, and he was in a very happy mood.
Su Qianqian was embarrassed, finally covered her red face, stood up, kicked Lu Heng with her little foot, turned around and ran away.
Beside him, Wang Shichao and Hong Fatzi were peeking at Lu Heng with a lewd smile. , Seeing Su Qianqian fleeing, both of them had a look of catching in their eyes.
"See what?" Lu Heng turned his head and stared at the two of them with a smile.
"Ah, General Wang, look, that screen seems to be a relic of the Tang Dynasty!" Hong Fatzi groped his chin and pointed to the table behind Lu Heng.
"Well, what a screen like a table!" Wang Shichao took a breath of cool air, looked at Hong Quan in disbelief, and nodded seriously.
The fat man who was babbling nonsense, his face did not change, and he nodded in agreement: "Well, like the screen of the table, it's really the first time I've seen it." What a wonder of the world! ”
Lu Heng snorted and sneered, squinting his eyes, with a mysterious smile on his face, watching these two people continue to pretend!
"That's it!"
Just when Wang Shichao and Hong Fatzi couldn't perform the double reed, the old craftsman who was lying on the ground and drawing drawings suddenly said a word, which was regarded as saving the two of them.
After Lu Heng glared at the two of them, he moved his gaze to the drawing that had already taken shape. 、
Wang Shichao and Hong Fatzi saw that Lu Heng finally let go of themselves, and after glancing at each other, they raised their hands to wipe the sweat from their foreheads and let out a long breath.
"The lake, which was originally 50 meters in circumference, has expanded to 100 meters. Moreover, in the rockery by the lake, a secret door was made. The mechanism is a pebble under a small pine tree on a rockery, and here it is! The old craftsman's eyes flashed with confidence, pointed to every point on the map, and said to Lu Heng: "And here, this is the passage into the underground." When designing the tunnel, the official asked the villain to leave him three spaces. The villain estimates that he wants to be a mechanism! ”
"What mechanism, you know?" Lu Heng nodded, turned his head, and looked at the old craftsman.
"This ...... The villain doesn't know! The old craftsman smiled bitterly: "At the beginning, after drawing these drawings, the official paid the villain and drove the villain out!" ”
