Two days later.

It's close to noon.

Luoyang City, on Suzaku Avenue, at this time there are crowds of people, among which there are many people who are brightly dressed.

When I looked at it roughly, I saw that everyone was reaching the same goal.

"Xu Shilang! You're here too! ”

A man in a cyan robe suddenly said softly.

"It turned out to be Zuo Yushi."

The walker in front of him turned his head to look at the sound and saw that the shouter was an acquaintance, so he stopped and said hello.

"You're here too..."

Before Zuo Yushi's voice fell, Xu Shilang nodded and responded:

"Yes, yes."

"Haha, it's better to meet by chance, so let's walk together, right?"

"Then the subordinate is better to be respectful."

After that, the two of them chatted with each other and walked to a luxurious mansion.

And scenes here, not far away, abound.

All the people who came were dignitaries, and even if they had not yet entered the ranks, it was not difficult to see their background from their gorgeous clothes.

Most of the people made an appointment to walk together, and occasionally talked about words such as 'Cai Shi', 'birthday banquet', and 'congratulatory gift'.

And at the same time, in the west of Luoyang City, in Lu Qi's Pingyang Marquis Mansion.

"Oops! Ziyi, you should hurry up! ”

"No matter how hard it is, I'm afraid the feast will start!"

I saw Cao Cao standing in place, shouting towards a certain bedroom with an anxious look on his face.

"Squeak~"

"It's coming, it's coming, don't rush it anymore."

The door was pushed open from the inside out, and I saw that Lu Qi was wearing a snow-white straight-lined robe, with a wide belt with moon white auspicious cloud patterns around his waist, and only a piece of ink jade with excellent jade quality hung on it, the shape seemed rough but simple and gloomy.

The black hair was tied with a silver ribbon at will, without a crown or hairpin, and a few strands of hair on the forehead were blown away by the wind, intertwined with the silver ribbon, looking quite elegant and dusty.

Dressed like this, Cao Cao's eyes lit up when he saw it, and he said:

"Good! This is only a little rumored that Lu Pingyang is a town and a state! ”

"If you are usually dressed like this, I'm afraid that the ladies in this city will already be rushing to send people to the matchmaker!"

"Hahaha!"

On the other hand, Lu Qi's dusty and elegant temperament just now, when he heard the voice, he suddenly shattered, and the black lines on his forehead said: "Don't be poor, let's go!" ”

As soon as the words fell, he stopped paying attention to Cao Cao and walked towards the gate alone.

"Wait for me, Ziyi!"

Lu Qi seemed to be walking slowly, but it was like a wind step by step, and in a few steps, the figure had reached ten meters away.

Seeing this, Cao Cao could only follow him quickly, and at the same time muttered at the corner of his mouth: "It's just that the strength of this martial arts cultivation has not yet recovered, why is this divine soul power still so abundant, this kind of talent is really envious of me!" ”

......

After a while, I saw that Lu Qi and the two of them had arrived in front of the gate of a gorgeous mansion.

There were two servants standing at the door, and when they saw Lu Qi and the two of them, they hurriedly stepped forward and said:

"I've seen Cao Yilang, I've seen..."

"Hou Ye Lu!"

"Hmm."

After Cao Cao answered indifferently, he asked, "Can the banquet be opened at this time?" ”

"Back to my lord, it hasn't been opened yet, but it's almost over, my lord is entertaining you adults in the lobby."

A servant spoke quickly.

At the same time, another servant beside him hurriedly answered: "The two adults are also invited in." ”

"It doesn't seem too late, let's go, brother."

When Cao Cao heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, after all, Cai Yong's birthday banquet, all the people present must be dignitaries, and if this kind of scene is late, it will be too embarrassing.

"Let's go."

Lu Qi didn't say much, just walked towards the mansion with Cao Cao.

And after the two figures gradually entered, the two slaves standing on the side of the door dared to take a closer look at Lu Qi's back.

"Is this General Anton, who was famous for the whole Han at the beginning? looks so elegant, not at all like the image of a military general on the battlefield, but like a scholar full of poetry. ”

"What General Anton, he is now the Marquis of Pingyang! The second-grade official! ”

"Come on, when I went out some time ago, I heard someone say that the so-called Pingyang Marquis actually has no real power at all, that is, the name is just a little louder."

"Oh, I think you're sour! Even if it's a name, it's an unattainable existence! ”

"Okay, don't discuss it behind your back, if someone listens to it, it's going to kill your head!"

“...”

......

Inside the palace.

"It's funny."

The corners of Lu Qi's mouth were inexplicably slightly upturned, as if he was smiling wordlessly.

He naturally heard the conversation between the two slaves before, but what made Lu Qi amused was not that these two dared to talk about themselves behind their backs, but that they were amused by this situation.

If you look at it carefully, you can find that even this kind of slave who is like a mustard already knows the weight of the identity of Marquis Lu Qi, so doesn't it mean that almost everyone in the entire Luoyang knows it?

If no one is deducing this bizarre situation behind it, I'm afraid no one will believe it.

But it is such a thing that is on the surface, but no one dares to stand up and stop it, so it is not difficult to speculate on the identity of the person behind it.

And just as Lu Qi was thinking about it, he and Cao Cao also stepped into the most popular place.

Looking into the eye, you can see a column of Chinese officials, almost half of them coming.

Among the generals, there are also several heavyweights.

For example, Huangpu Song, who was trapped in the Changshe before, and Lu Zhi, who returned to Luoyang from the front some time ago.

Everyone sat in the lobby, with a desk in front of them, with a dazzling array of fine wine and delicacies on the stage, and beautiful maids waiting back and forth, setting off bursts of fragrant wind.

The people in the hall talked happily, and the atmosphere was warm and high, and the topics all revolved around 'war' or 'poetry and songs', or flattering each other.

It can be said that there are all kinds of situations in the world, and they are all shown here.

"At this time, the situation in the north has been decided, and the Yellow Turban thieves in the east have been defeated and retreated by our Han Army, and even worse, they have fled in the name of hearing it, so it seems that the so-called million Yellow Turbans are just a group of rabble."

"Hahaha, that's right, that's right, a group of rat ants, how can it become a climate!"

"I'm a big man, and there are many talented people, but I'm just a yellow turban thief, what kind of storm can I set off!"

“...”

In one area, some civilian officials talked about the previous Yellow Turban War with a haughty expression, and their words were full of contempt for the Yellow Turban.

"Hmph, these guys, it's really shameless!"

Cao Cao was also a martial cultivator in the early stage of the fifth order, his ears and eyes were naturally smart, but when he heard the words of those civil officials, he seemed a little annoyed.

"Why didn't they say how they were so scared by those yellow scarves that they didn't dare to look up?!"

"At the beginning, when I was in the court, when I talked about the Yellow Turban, almost no one dared to speak out, but at this time, it's good, the battle situation is a little settled, and I don't want to think about what kind of face I was at the beginning!"

Although Cao Cao was annoyed, he also knew that it was not appropriate to talk about these things at this time, so he had to muttered to himself.

"What's so angry about this?"

Lu Qi on the side naturally heard Cao Cao's muttering, and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.

"Ziyi! Why don't they want to think about who rebelled in Youzhou before, how they destroyed Changshe and Nanyang, and how they pacified the north? ”

"Don't you feel chills over this?!"

Cao Cao was fighting for Lu Qi.

"Are you annoyed that an ant on the side of the road is talking about an eagle in the sky?"

After Lu Qi replied indifferently, he found an empty seat by himself and sat down.

Seeing this, Cao Cao didn't say anything more, only sighed silently, followed by Lu Qi's side, and sat side by side.

The audience was full of voices, but few people noticed the arrival of Cao Cao and Lu Qi, but on the main seat, there were still a few people's eyes on them.

"Isn't that Ziyi!"

Huangpu Songzheng and Cai Yong had a good conversation, but they saw the familiar face at the end of the seat, and they involuntarily spat out and debuted.

"Huh?! Pingyang Hou?! ”

Cai Yong and Lu Zhi, who were beside them, followed Huangpu Song's gaze when they heard the voice, and they also saw Lu Qi's figure.

"How could he sit alone in that seat?"

Cai Yong was a little puzzled when he saw this, after all, after sending an invitation to Lu Qi before, he also specially reserved Lu Qi's seat in the first row of seats.

Seeing that Lu Qi was not present before, I thought that he would not come, but I never thought about it, but at this time, I saw Lu Qi sitting on his own in the last seat.

"Ziyi!"

Huangpu Song didn't think much about it, and when he saw Lu Qi, he shouted excitedly.

After Nanyang said goodbye, he also met Lu Qi once or twice again after returning to Luoyang, and he was also unhappy with Lu Qi's reward before, but unfortunately, Lu Qi himself didn't say much, although Huangpu Song was willing to help, but seeing that Lu Qi himself had accepted it, it was not good to say more.

And with the shout of Huangpu Song, the words of everyone in the hall came to an abrupt end.

The entire lobby suddenly fell into silence.

However, everyone's eyes were all on the last seat, where Lu Qi looked at Huangpu Song and the others with a wry smile.

"I still want to come here to make soy sauce, have a meal, find a time to say a congratulatory message and leave, but now it seems that I am afraid that it will not be satisfactory."

Lu Qi thought silently in his heart, and at the same time, seeing that everyone's eyes were all on him, and at the same time, Cao Cao beside him had already signaled himself with his eyes, so he got up and bowed:

"Brother Yizhen, long time no see."

"Hahaha, Ziyi, I was talking to you before, I never thought that you were already at the table, but how could you sit alone at the last table?"

After Huangpu Song got up and returned the salute, he walked towards Lu Qi.

At the same time, Cai Yong and Lu Zhi beside him also got up and followed Lu Qi.

"Xiaguan has seen Pingyang Hou!"

Cai Yong bowed and saluted.

"General Ziyi, Guangzong farewell, I just saw it today, I haven't thanked you for saving my life, but I want to have a drink with you when I find a time!"

Lu Zhi also saluted and said with a smile.

"I've seen Cai Daru, I've seen General Lu Zhi!"

Seeing this, Lu Qi hurriedly replied.

And Cao Cao on the side also hurriedly got up and saluted: "I've seen Master Cai, I've seen Lu Daru, and I've seen General Huangpu!" ”

"It turned out to be Mengde!"

The three of them turned their heads to look at the sound when they heard the sound, and then they saw Cao Cao's figure.

"No wonder, I'm still wondering why Ziyi came alone, it turned out that he was accompanied by Meng De."

Seeing this, Huangpu Song knew it in his heart.

And Cai Yong and the others are naturally clear-minded.

They have also occasionally heard of the relationship between Lu Qi and Cao Cao, after all, the entire Luoyang officialdom knows that only Cao Cao has the most contact with Lu Qi.

"Ziyi, come over and sit down with me."

Huangpu Song said invitingly.

"Yes, Pingyang Hou, you came quietly, but you sat at the last seat, if this is spread out, wouldn't the lower officials have to deserve the title of 'poor hospitality'?"

Cai Yong also invited him, with a little joke in his words.

"Haha, that's true."

Lu Zhi stroked his long beard and smiled.

"Don't make fun of me, the two adults are just following orders."

Lu Qi also smiled.

"Hey, why are you so unfamiliar with how many of you call them? Ziyi and I have a relationship, that is, I have a relationship with the two of you, and everyone can be commensurate with each other. ”

Huangpu Song saw that a few people were a little unfamiliar, so he said on the side.

"It's extreme, it's extreme! Then I'll shout Pingyang Hou 'Ziyi'. ”

Cai Yong and Lu Zhi said with a smile.

"Then there is only respect, it is better to obey the fate, and I shouted at the two of them, 'Brother Bo' and 'Brother Zi'."

Lu Qi didn't have the sour etiquette of the ancient literati, so he responded calmly.

"Haha, then Ziyi will sit with me."

Cai Yong, as the master, naturally spoke first.

"Good!"

Lu Qi nodded in response.

"Meng De will also come along."

Cai Yong knew the relationship between Lu Qi and Cao Cao, so naturally he would not leave Cao Cao to sit here alone.

"Hehe, then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate."

Cao Cao naturally wanted to sit with these big guys, so he hurriedly laughed.

Then several people took their seats in front of everyone in the hall and took their seats at the chief themselves.

"Ziyi, I haven't seen you walk around the house these days, but how is your physical condition?"

After taking a seat, Huangpu Song is to report the greetings.

"Thank you Brother Yizhen for your concern, the injury is still stable, you just need to recuperate."

Lu Qi replied with a light smile when he heard this.

"That's good."

After Huangpu Song got the reply, he nodded in response.

"Alas, it is also a jealous talent, if Ziyi is not injured, I am afraid that at this time, there will be no yellow turban thieves alive in the entire Han Dynasty."

Lu Zhi sighed leisurely.

After Guangzong was busy with the rest of Lu Qi's affairs, he was ordered by the Son of Heaven to return to Luoyang, and because of Guangzong's war, he could no longer go to the front line, so he could only recuperate at home.

But Lu Zhi didn't care much about these, after all, as a great Han and Confucian, he himself was full of peach and plums, and he really didn't care much about these so-called credits.

But the Lu Qi in front of him is different in his eyes, young and promising, and his achievements are shocking to the past and the present, this kind of talent can only live in Luoyang to recuperate, it is like a tyrannical thing!

That's why Lu Zhi sighed.

"Yes, Ziyi's original exploits, I still remember them vividly."

Cai Yong also sighed on the side.

In fact, what impressed him most about Lu Qi was the previous letters, after all, as a literati, he was actually more interested in Lu Qi's talent.

"Okay, today is Bo Jiao's birthday, let's talk about some other topics."

Huangpu Song on the side saw that the atmosphere was a little stiff, and at the same time, he was worried that Lu Qi would be sad when he heard these words, so he hurriedly changed the topic.

"Yes, today was Master Cai's birthday banquet, and he should be happy, just right, there is a poem here, and I invite Master Cai to appreciate it."

Cao Cao, who was sitting next to Lu Qi, heard that until now, he didn't want everyone to continue to talk about these things, and it just so happened that the congratulatory gift in his hand could also be displayed at this time, but it was a good topic to divert.

"Oh? The thing Meng De is holding in his arms is not the poem you are talking about? ”

"Take it out quickly, just so I'll enjoy it together."

Hearing Cao Cao's words, Cai Yong was interested.

At the same time, so did Huangpu Song and Lu Zhi beside him.

"Please also ask a few adults to appreciate it."

As he spoke, Cao Cao gently opened the wooden box in his arms, and then after glancing at Lu Qi, he slowly unfolded the rolling paper, and then, a pair of birthday poems were revealed to everyone!

......

ps: Cao Cao was the middle of the court in the third year of Guanghe (180), in the first year of Zhongping (184), the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, and Cao Cao was worshiped as a cavalry captain, but because the protagonist intervened, when Emperor Ling of Han had not yet had time to appoint, the Changshe was solved, so Cao Cao's current official position is still Yilang.

You say, about Cai Yan, do you want to have a Lori to cultivate? After all, the fate of this talented woman in the original book is too miserable.

first married Wei Zhongdao, and then was taken captive by the Huns, think about it, let's change her fate.

The plot of Luoyang will not be written too much, and then it will be going to the north, and the plot will be even more exciting.
