Late at night, in the ancient city of Chang'an, after the hustle and bustle of the day, the whole city fell silent, except for the regular sound of the drum on time and the occasional barking of dogs, nothing could be heard. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the East Market, a deep house is also quiet, the door of the house is closed, and the plaque of the house door can be faintly seen under the reflection of the lanterns on both sides of the gate: Shangshu Mansion. Most of the people in the courtyard had fallen asleep, except for the last room in the right wing of the front yard, which was still lit. At this time, a young man was taking advantage of the candle on the table to copy official documents, and there were several official documents reported from various places on the table, which had to be sorted out and excerpted by the young man, and the master of the mansion would report to the Son of Heaven tomorrow morning.

At the third watch, the young man put down his pen, closed the last official document, moved his stiff neck and wrists, slowly stood up, walked to the window, and gently pushed the wooden window over. At this time, it is the twilight of spring, the willow tree in front of the window has just budded, and there has been a spring rain in the afternoon. The young man looked up at the night sky outside the window and did not move, but he was not obsessed with the freshness of this spring night. It's just because there are too many and too complicated memories buried in the depths of his heart, and only in the dead of night like this, he can't help but uncover the dusty memories, as if reminding himself of the meaning of surviving. He had been dreaming almost the same dream these days, and all that lingered in front of him were desolation, lonely graves, and familiar but distant faces, and he seemed to feel the feeling of near-death when he fell into a river of ice, the water mixed with the ice ballast in his nose. In the water, he vaguely saw two figures swimming desperately towards him, but his consciousness seemed to be blurry at that time, and many memories were scattered fragments. Another scene in my memory is that I seem to be lying on the ground, there seems to be fire and human figures in front of me, I want to open my eyes to see everything in front of me, but what I see is always hazy, I want to listen but I can't hear anything except the chaos and noise, I want to move my body, but I can't feel the existence of my body at all. I thought it was really in the underworld, and suddenly a familiar voice came into my ears, "You can't die, you have to live, otherwise everyone will die in vain, and no one will know the truth anymore." Then it was dark again before my eyes.

"Jingluo, what are you thinking, you haven't rested so late?" A deep voice pulled the young man back from his memory, and the young man settled down, and hurriedly looked out the window to the other side, where there was a white-haired old man carrying a lantern and looking at him with a smile. When the young man saw the old man, he hurried out of the room, bowed to the old man, and said, "Master, you haven't rested so late?" Do you have any instructions here? "This old man turned out to be the owner of this mansion, the founding father of Great Qin, Shangshu and Zuo General Lu Luoyang.

Lu Luoyang smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just disturbed by the sound of a cat meowing outside the window." Hey, people are old, sleep lightly, and they can't sleep anymore if they move a little, and the old man estimates that you may not be resting in the courtyard of the big mansion, so he turned around and wanted to chat with you, no, the old man really guessed well. ”

The young man hurriedly welcomed the old man into the house, and invited the old man to sit down, while he stood respectfully beside the old man. Lu Luoyang asked the young man to sit down, but the young man refused to sit down. Lu Luoyang forced the young man to sit beside him, and then said: "You have been in the house for a while, and you should also understand the old man's personality, but why are you still so restrained?" ”

The young man was sincerely frightened, and replied: "The old master reprimanded him for being stupid and humble, and he did not dare to exceed the courtesy of humility." ”

Lu Luoyang said with a smile: "The old man was reprimanding you just now, in fact, he just wanted to persuade you, I saw that you were silent all day long, and you didn't interact with people, it seems that you have something on your mind, of course, the old man doesn't want to inquire about your private affairs, but I just hope that you can let go of the burden in your heart, just like you Han people often say, 'If you come, you will be safe'!" ”

The young man smiled slightly, and arched his hand and said, "Remember the old master's teachings below!" Then the young man handed the sorted out official documents to the old man with both hands, and said, "Old master, according to your instructions, I have sorted out all the official documents about folk rumors reported by the state capitals, please take a look." ”

Lu Luoyang took the official document, flipped through it casually, and said: "I am relieved that you are doing things." It's just that you said that the dignified emperor asked the old man to collect these things all day long, what's the use? ”

The young man stood up and arched his hand and said, "Thank you for your trust." It's just that it's about the government and politics, but he doesn't dare to comment on it. ”

Lu Luoyang waved his hand, motioned for the young man to sit down, and then said: "Actually, the old man can also guess His Majesty's intentions, isn't he worried that the imperial power is unstable and someone will rebel, but where will such a precaution have any effect?" ”。

It turned out that the name of the Great Qin Emperor at this time was Fu Chang, the word Zisheng, was the grandson of the Great Qin Taizu Fu Hong, the third son of the high ancestor Fu Hong, Fu Chang was one-eyed since he was a child, and he had been angry with Fu Hong, Fu Hong was angry and ashamed, so he ordered Fu to kill him, but fortunately he was stopped by his uncle Fu Xiong. It is said that Fu Chang can lift a thousand catties, hand a fierce beast, walk and gallop horses, stab and ride and shoot, the crown is unbeatable. It's just that this person is tyrannical and suspicious by nature, and it is purely accidental that he can sit on the throne, so he is always worried that some of the courtiers will have different intentions, so he sends people to collect news that is unfavorable to him in various places.

Lu Luoyang stayed for a while, and the time was almost up, so he got up and left with the official document. After the young man sent Lu Luoyang away, he turned back into the room, remembering what Lu Luoyang said to him just now, and an indescribable feeling came to his heart again. Lu Luoyang is really not thin on himself, he was caught by the Qin army, became a slave and was escorted to Chang'an, and after several transfers to Shangshu Mansion, Lu Luoyang saw that he had some talents, so he did not do coolies like other slaves, but stayed in the house as a scribe. But after experiencing so many deceptions, hearing so many lies, and seeing so many hypocrisy, how can I easily trust anyone in front of me? Now that he is incognito in his dynasty, what is he for? But Zhaoxue has a long road, when will it be able to come out? ”

Lu Luoyang returned to the room, cleaned up, changed into court clothes, and rode into the palace to go to court. Sitting in the car, Lu Luoyang thought about the current situation, "Today's emperor is indeed too reckless, and too suspicious, dare not delegate power, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military and officials everywhere are all panicked, cautious, dare not act, for fear of being suspicious of the emperor by the high-profile overblow, all kinds of taxes, conscription and too harsh, wars continue, where can the people live and work in peace and contentment, the population of the states is decreasing day by day, a large number of displaced people run to the south of Huaishui, and it leads to the waste of farming, the land is idle, and in the long run, the national strength is bound to decline, Taizu, It is very likely that the Great Qin Foundation founded by Gao Zu will not be guaranteed! For the sake of today's plan, we must persuade Your Majesty to adjust the national policy and reassure the hearts of the subjects. ”

Lu Luoyang looked at the official document handed to him by Jing Luo in his hand, and muttered to himself: "What secrets are hidden in this Jing Luo, why can't I see through him no matter what?" But under secret observation, this person behaves and treats people, but he is indeed a righteous gentleman, and after a few contacts, I can feel that he is very talented, but every time I want to listen to his opinions and opinions, he either avoids the important or is silent. Others will feel that such an opportunity is unwanted, but this scene seems to be deliberately avoided. Scenery ...... Is that his real name? ”

At this moment, Lu Luoyang felt that the car stopped, and his subordinates reported that they had arrived at the palace gate, so Lu Luoyang retracted his thoughts, got out of the car, tidied up his clothes, and greeted the other ministers, and the ministers lined up and walked to the Taiji Hall in turn.

So is this young man really called Jingluo? Actually, it's not, it's just his pseudonym, you should have already guessed **, this young man is our hero, the suffering Yun Meng, Yun Jingluo.
