Chen Lin and his group passed through Yingchuan County, walked north along Songshan, entered the boundary of Chenliu County, went east from Bishui Pass, and crossed Bishui Pass to be the land of Henan, where Luoyang is located. On this day, Chen Lin led the team to come to the front of the Bishui Pass, only to see that this place is connected to Wei Wei Song Mountain in the south, the north is based on the rolling yellow water, the two miles are less than the narrow pass, the majestic and upright, it seems to have more than eight zhang, the face is hideous, such as a monster lying between the deep forest, majestic and abnormal.

Chen Lin and the others were sighing, and Chen Bao came over and said: "This is the Bishui Pass, also known as the Tiger Prison Pass." Originated from Zhou Mu Wang Ji Man hunting in the garden, ordered his entourage to plunder the forest and frightened the beasts, suddenly saw a tiger wandering in the reeds, 'the Son of Heaven is coming, the Seven Elites of the Son of Heaven Gao Ben Rong Sheng hunted tigers and sacrificed the Son of Heaven, the fate is Sheng, the east of the animal, is said to be the tiger's prison. However, the name of the tiger prison, since then, it has also crossed the Bishui Pass and then a horse Pingchuan, until Luoyang. There are 3,000 imperial court forbidden troops guarding the gate of Luoyang from time to time, and there is a trend of 'one husband is not open'. ”

After arriving at Bishui Pass, it is the important place of Beijing, but Luoyang at this time is not very illegal. Chen Lin ordered twenty guards to return to Anyang here, otherwise Chen Lin and his party would have nearly thirty fifty steel-smelting sword cavalry into Luoyang, and they didn't know how much trouble they would cause. As soon as the cavalry left, there were only seven guards and twelve maids left beside Chen Lin, and Chen Bao Zhoucang Huang Yan, a total of twenty-three people and two trucks, only twelve horses, and went to the pass.

Chen Lin felt that the Bishui Pass was majestic, but this Luoyang City gave people a majesty, Chen Lin saw the soldiers coming and going on the wall, angry armor and sharp blades, walking steadily, although I don't know how to do kung fu, this appearance alone is reassuring.

Luoyang City is located between Pishan and Luoshui only, south to Yishui, Luoping River, north to the vein of Pishan, Luoyang City north and south city wall nine miles, east and west city wall six miles, so Luoyang City also has the saying of "Ninety-six City". There are 12 city gates, two palaces in the north and south, 24 streets in the small calculation, and dozens of long streets in the big one.

Because Chen Lin is filial piety to Luoyang, with the official document of the Runan County Government, Chen Lin and his group can live in the post house, and the filial piety and honesty of each county can temporarily live in the post house after coming to Luoyang, and after reporting to the Lang Bureau, they will be arranged by their respective positions to have accommodation, or they can arrange their own accommodation.

Chen Lin also thought that so many people and horses would cause the unhappiness of the post house officials, but he never thought that it would be smooth, how did Chen Lin know that there were more young masters than his swagger, and some filial and honest princes actually had one or two hundred people accompanying him when they entered Luoyang. After Chen Lin and the others settled the carriage and horses in the post house, Chen Bao said to Chen Lin: "Eldest young master, now there are a few days before the deadline for reporting to Lord Yang, but now we have to find and buy a mansion as soon as possible, and your uncle Lin Ranzhi has also looked for a few places, so why don't you go with me to have a look." ”

Chen Lin then took Zhou Cang Huang Yan to follow the old housekeeper to Luoyang Street for the first time, Luoyang is an imperial city, needless to say, there are hundreds of thousands of people, the small land of Henan, less than half the size of Runan County, there are more than one million people, and there are more than 300,000 inside and outside Luoyang City.

Chen Lin followed Chen Bao around to look at the mansions to be sold in Luoyang, all of which were the original Luoyang officials who wanted to be released as officials, so they sold the mansions, and finally Chen Lin felt that the east of the city was good, close to the Middle East Gate, at the intersection of Middle East Street and Kaiyang Street. From the east gate out of Luoyang, outside the city is the horse market, and what makes Chen Lin even more satisfied is that the mansions of the three princes are all in the east of the city.

The mansion is not big, but it is not something that ordinary people can afford to live in, and it is not as good as the dignitaries in Luoyang. The mansion can live forty or fifty people, divided into left and right compartments, can live people, the door of the mansion has a front hall, and the back is the backyard. Such a mansion in Anyang is only a hundred taels of gold, but in Luoyang it is worth a thousand taels, and finally Chen Bao negotiated with others, and finally Chen Lin bought this mansion for 1,400 taels, and he can hand over the deed tomorrow.

When Chen Lin saw something, he asked Chen Bao to take him to the street, and Chen Bao pointed and explained to Chen Lin, Zhou Cang, Huang Yan and the three of them about Luoyang, in fact, Chen Bao knew how much Luoyang there, but he relied on experience to tell Chen Lin and others some human feelings, so as not to let Chen Lin suffer today. Originally, Chen Lin's uncle Lin De had come to Luoyang and was the best person, but unfortunately he made an appointment with a businessman in Youzhou and couldn't accompany Chen Lin. In the end, Chen Bao also specially warned Chen Lin and others that Luoyang City could ride horses, but they should not run horses until they had to.

On the second day, Chen Lin and others lived in the mansion, and for two days in a row, Chen Lin only let his subordinates be familiar with the new mansion and everything nearby, and ordered someone to make a small door plaque, and personally wrote the word "Chen Mansion" in the words "Chen Ti" taught by Grandpa. Zhou Cang looked at the door plaque made by Chen Lin's order, and saw that Chen Lin wrote two words, but he didn't recognize it, but he knew that it was a door plaque. He compared it with his hand and said to Chen Lin: "Young Master, this plaque is much smaller than the one at home. "Zhou Cang is talking about the door plaque of Anyang Chen Mansion.

Chen Lin replied: "This Luoyang City is not as good as Anyang, it is better to keep a low profile, you brute bull should not be impulsive in the future, if not, I want you to fight ants." Huang Yan next to him laughed, it turned out that after Zhou Cang couldn't kill the ants that day, the public nursing home used it to make Zhou Cang happy, and Zhou Cang blushed every time. This time it was the same, when he heard Chen Lin say again, his face immediately turned red, he raised his hand and scratched his head, and Chen Lin and the others laughed even more.

hung up the door plaque, Chen Lin is considered to have settled in Luoyang, six nurses, six family members, six maids, and Zhou Cang Huang Yan, Chen Bao and another nursing home are going back to Anyang. All the families were busy buying goods, and the affairs of the house were in good order under the auspices of the chief housekeeper.

Chen Lin wanted to submit an official document to Guanglu Doctor Yang Ciyang, Chen Lin got up early in the morning and dressed himself up, and he didn't dare to take his family, so he went to the Lang Office alone, and Chen Lin had already inquired where the Lang Office was. The Lang Department is led by Guangluxun, responsible for the palace gate guard duties, subordinate officials are: Wuguan Zhonglang General, Left Zhonglang General, Right Zhonglang General, Tiger Ben Zhonglang General, Yulin Zhonglang General, Riding Captain, Guanglu Doctor, Yilang and so on.

The people standing in front of the Lang Office have long been accustomed to it for a while, because in the past few days, filial piety and honesty from all over the country have come to report one after another, just like they were at that time. Chen Lin was not dressed very flamboyantly today, for fear of leaving a pompous image in front of Shangguan, so he politely asked the station guard about the official office of Dr. Guanglu, the office was very large, and it was really difficult to leave without asking.

There are people wearing Lang official clothes in the Lang Office, and there are also people like Chen Lin who have just come to the Lang Office, in short, people come and go. According to the road pointed by the guard, Chen Lin quickly found Lord Yang's official office, Chen Lin stood in front of the door and looked, but this Lord Yang's official office was much quieter than other places, I don't know why.

Chen Lin was looking inside the door, but saw a middle-aged person walking out of the door, with a smile on his face: "Are you Chen Bozhi from Runan County?" Chen Lin hurriedly responded: "The student is exact, I don't know what the adult is called?" Chen Lin knew that this person was definitely not Yang Ci, Yang Ci was already nearly sixty years old, and he would not be so young.

When the man saw that Chen Lin was polite, he was satisfied, and said: "I am the Taizhong doctor of this official office, you can call me Doctor Li, come with me, Lord Yang is in the middle." After speaking, let Chen Lin in. Chen Lin didn't dare to think about it, so he went in with this Dr. Li, only to see that the room was full of books. There was an old man looking at Chen Lin and the others, this person had white temples, a blue Jinxian crown, and a black robe, a typical official appearance, but the old eyes could see a profound atmosphere. The official uniforms of the Eastern Han Dynasty were all black robes, only a little different in the crown and ribbon, the crown was a hat, and the ribbon was the ribbon on the clothes.

After Dr. Li introduced and retired, this person was Dr. Guanglu Yang Boxian Yang Ci, the head of the Yang family. Chen Lin hurriedly bowed to him: "Runan Chen Lin Chen Bozhi, fortunately for filial piety, to meet Lord Yang." ”

Yang Ci looked at Chen Lin and asked, "Guan Ru is young, how old is you?" "Sixteen years old" "Oh, but I'm younger, what books have I read?" Yang Ci asked some more questions, how to write, how to read the scriptures, etc., and finally Yang Ci explained again, and Chen Lin understood.

It turns out that the general filial piety is to report to Zhonglang and do the job of the guard in the future. However, because last year, Yang Ci and Cai Yong, Cai Bojiao, because there were many different texts at that time, asked for serious texts, and with the permission of Emperor Ling, they wrote the 5 classics and two transmissions on the stone tablet in the style of Lishu outside the Taixue Gate. The project is huge, and there is no mistake, it is time-consuming and laborious, so Yang Ci asked Guangluxun to raise one person to help in this year's filial piety, so Chen Lin came. Chen Lin was also very happy, Yang Ci and Cai Yong were all celebrities at that time, and they will definitely benefit a lot from getting along with these two people in the future.

Yang Ci asked again: "I don't know what Bozhi's ambitions are?" ”

Chen Lin knew that this question was the key, and whether he could get Yang Ci's approval in the future was only asked here. Chen Lin bowed: "Last year, there was a plague in Sizhou, and Bo Zhi saw the disaster in person, and Bo Zhi swore an oath at that time, but I Han people have medical treatment for diseases, hunger and food, cold clothing, love for the young, and dependence on the old." "What a vision.

Yang Ci also shouted: "A good 'sick have a doctor, hungry have food, cold has clothes, the young have love, and the old have something to rely on', which is worthy of 'Zhou Gong vomiting and feeding, thinking of the emperor's grace' Chen Bozhi." After Yang Ci finished speaking, Chen Lin was surprised: "Lord Yang also knows the name of Bozhi?" Yang Ci smiled: "Runan Chen Bozhi is a song of ambition, and Luoyang has already been circulated. Chen Lin thought to himself, so that's the case, no wonder why he chose me to come here.

Can't tolerate Chen Lin not being excited, who is Yang Ci? The head of the Yang family in Hongnong, one of the few scholars in the Eastern Han Dynasty who can be compared with the Yuan family in Nanyang is the Yang family, Yang Biao, the son of Yang Ci, the current Jingzhao Yin, the Yang family is also a protégé and the old officials are all over the world, but the people are not prosperous and cannot be compared with the Yuan family. Yang Ci actually knew Chen Bozhi's name, and he was not allowed to be unhappy, and what made Chen Lin even more happy was that his reputation could come to Luoyang, which was a good thing.

Later, Yang Ci asked about the situation again, and knew that Chen Lin had a mansion in Luoyang, so he said some things, so that Chen Lin only needed to come to the office for two hours every morning. Yang Ci knew that filial piety was just a process, and one day he would be an official elsewhere. Today, Chen Lin is only a report, no need to go on business, and he can go back after talking for a while.

Chen Lin received the official card, which was convenient for entering and exiting the Lang Office in the future, and after receiving the Lang official hat, he happily went to the Chen Mansion in Luoyang.
