After a false alarm last night. The second day of the second day was very early, but Lu Shi and Lu Zhi and Lu Jun, who had gotten up early in the past, all stayed in bed.

When she was going to do it early, the three of them sorted out their clothes and walked out of the house one after another, and Yu Yu was worried that last night's ** would have some side effects on their bodies, but seeing that the three of them looked refreshed and not the slightest bit uncomfortable, they knew that they were too worried.

After breakfast, Lu Jun went to the foot of the mountain to supervise the work, and Lu Zhi said hello to Lu and went to Chang'an by car.

When there was only one person left in the house, she closed the door from the inside, returned to her room and took out the flat box stuffed under the bed.

Because she couldn't figure out why Yao Huang left this thing for her, she thought about finding a place today last night and hiding this box that she didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse, but when she got it in her hand now, she had an urge to take a closer look.

I have to say that Yao Huang's vivid and interesting teaching to her in the past twenty days really made her interested in those strange poisons, and she was holding the box at this time, knowing what was inside. I had to hold back from looking at it, her heart was as unbearable as a cat's paw.

Her white fingers tugged back and forth on the seam of the box a few times, and finally as if trying to convince herself, she muttered softly: "I'll just look at the embroidery on the silk again, anyway, I'm not going to learn, take a look, it's not too late to put it away." ”

Thinking so, she had already walked to the desk and sat down, her slightly long nails cut through the crack of the box, and with a slight pick, the special pitch-black flat box was opened, she didn't look at the seeds covered with wood chips, she directly peeled off the layer of silk, slowed down her breathing and spread it on the desk.

In the daytime, look at this two-foot square white silk silk is even more amazing, never seen the embroidery, delicate and neat, the colorful lines seem to be written by people stroke by stroke, count carefully, a total of eighteen poisons and antidotes of the preparation method, clear and layered, and in each article with vivid and realistic patterns, even regardless of the value of these drugs, but this delicate embroidery can be called a treasure.

Yi Yu browsed all the texts and pictures recorded on the silk silk, Rao is psychological quality is several times stronger than ordinary people, and she couldn't help but feel a little fluctuating at this time.

Holding back the ** that looked at it carefully, her fingers trembled slightly and re-closed the silk and pasted it in the box, and then opened the wood chips on the other side, and looked at the high-quality medicines. After closing his eyes and adjusting his breathing, he fastened the box tightly, found a half-worn cloth from the closet, wrapped the flat box, and wrapped it with a hair rope.

She wanted to bury this thing in the flower garden in the backyard, but she was afraid that Lu Shi would not inadvertently find the box when she was rummaging through the potato, so she first sandwiched it behind the bronze mirror of the dressing table, planning to wait for the new house to be built, and then find a remote place to bury the box secretly.

After the father and daughter of the Yao family left, the courtyard next door was naturally empty, and the family talked about it at dinner in the morning, and the final result of the discussion was that they didn't care about it, anyway, the courtyard also paid half a year's rent, and it had nothing to do with them.

The aunt of the owner next door now lives in the north of the city and rarely comes back, so he can't find out that the tenant has left for a while.

Speaking of which, the security in Longquan Town is really good. Last night, Lu Zhi woke up after the drug lost its effect and went to Yao's house to find someone, and the gate was not closed, and today the Yu Yu just pushed it and opened the courtyard door.

There were obvious traces of rummaging in the house, and two or three pieces of clothing were thrown on the ground on the east side, and Yu Yu recognized that these were the new clothes that Yao Ziqi bought for Yao Huang at the ready-to-wear shop in the town on the second day that the Yao family's father and daughter lived in the town.

The wardrobe was wide open, and there was nothing empty at a glance, Yu Yu didn't turn around much in the house, and went directly to the backyard, and at a glance, she suddenly felt a little distressed, ninety percent of the medicinal seeds in this medicine garden were planted by Yao Huang with her own eyes, but now the soil in it has been turned over in a mess, and the herbs that have had some shallow sprouts have also been dug out and discarded on the ground on the side, looking like they have been run over by their feet.

Yi Yu picked up the small shovel hanging on the wall next to him and dialed it in the soil, and luckily found a few seeds that had just been planted two days ago, among which there was a peanut-sized seed, which was a kind of herb called borage, if its juice was mixed with egg white and dried, the scraped powder could cause people to itch, but if it was boiled alone, it had the effect of keeping out the cold and preventing freezing.

Yao Huang once told her personally, and the reason why she was interested in the knowledge of poisons and herbs with dark tones was precisely because of their duality, both harmful and beneficial to people.

She took out the handkerchief from her sleeve, carefully wrapped the few soil-stained pills and put them away, didn't linger any longer, and closed the door of Yao's courtyard from the outside. And he went back to his house.

After Lu Zhi arrived in Chang'an City, he gave the coachman two taels of silver and told him to wait at the gate of the city after Shen Shi, and walked to a square in the West Third Street of Zhuque Street, turned into an alley, knocked on the door at the back door of a courtyard wall, and after a while, the small door that was only slightly higher than him was opened from the inside, and he quickly flashed in, and the door was gently slammed shut.

Lu Zhi walked alone on the narrow and winding bluestone path, with dense small trees on both sides blocking his vision, and after walking for about half an hour, he saw a long corridor at the end of the road.

Walking through the corridor into a courtyard, there was no half a figure in the empty courtyard, he pushed the door directly into the innermost room, the window lattice in the room was closed, three figures could be seen in the dim light, the three of them sat at a round table, there was no extra chair, seeing him come in, they quickly got up and saluted to give up their seats.

Lu Zhi was not polite, picked a chair by the window and sat down, reached out and took the teapot on the round table and poured himself a cup of hot tea, and after blowing lightly, he said, "These days." Is there any movement worth mentioning in the capital? ”

The three men did not sit down again, but stood opposite him, and when he opened his mouth, one of them replied in a low voice, "There is no big movement, but there is something strange." ”

"Tell me about it."

"A few days later is the birthday of King Wei, but he asked His Majesty for his will in advance, and fasted for ten days in Baohua Temple.

Lu Zhi's eyebrows skipped slightly, his fingers lightly buckled twice on the round table, and he asked again: "King Wei's mansion has been closed recently?" ”

"No, the dinner has been held twice. The night before yesterday, his subordinates also met with King Wei in person. ”

Halfway through the tea in his hand, Lu Zhi whispered to the three of them for a while, and when he got up to leave, someone opened his mouth with a little hesitation:

"By the way, there's something else that's a little weird."

Lu Zhi let out an "oh", and the man continued: "Lord Zhongshu Lingfang, I am sending someone to investigate you, it is said that after the banquet that day, many people also investigated your news, but there is no movement in the Fang Mansion and the Changsun Mansion, why recently——"

Lu Zhi stretched out his hand and chuckled: "Let him check it out, just put some news out as usual." ”

After speaking, he turned and walked out of the slightly gloomy room, and after the three men in the room bowed down and led him out, they sat down again at the round table and discussed the matter in a low voice.

Lu Zhi walked out of the house through the corridor according to the original road, turned onto the main road, rented a carriage at a carriage and horse dealership, and told the coachman to go to Yankangfang.

Lu Zhi, who was sitting alone in the carriage, leaned against the wall of the car and closed his eyes to think, and sometimes showed a sarcastic smile on his handsome face, or his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

When he arrived outside the Wei Wang's Mansion in Yankangfang, Lu Zhi handed the name card to the porter, and a moment later, a deputy housekeeper of the palace came out to answer in person.

"Master Lu, it's really unfortunate, His Highness is receiving a guest in the hall, and it's not very convenient now, His Highness said that if you have something urgent, you can come back in the evening."

Lu Zhi raised his hand to him and bowed to him, and said in a harmonious voice: "It's not a big deal, then I'll come back to visit another day." ”

"Okay, you go slowly."

When Lu Zhi returned to the carriage, his face showed an expression that was half hesitant and half worried.

***

Yi Yu got those seeds, and when she went home, she wiped the soil with a handkerchief, and found a box to carefully pack, because Lu knew that Yao Huang was fiddling with those herbs, and she didn't dare to add new species to the edge of the vegetable garden when Lu's anger was not subsided after the incident just now, for fear that Lu would shovel her in anger.

It's ridiculous. Because of her good memory, although she only worked hard for about 20 days, she didn't learn some medicine skills from Yao Huang, but now she only got these three or two useful medicines, and the hero is useless.

In the middle of the afternoon, Lu Shi and Yiyu were sitting in the courtyard embroidering, and they were discussing that after the embroidery frame ordered tomorrow arrived, a large thing would come out, Lu Zhi pushed open the courtyard door and walked in, and said with a smile after seeing the two of them:

"Mother, I invited the craftsman master to come, and now I am going to take people to the south to see the terrain, you and Xiaoyu go to the Yingran Inn in the town to ask for three upper rooms, and pay the three-day room fee first."

Lu Shi was surprised: "This invited people, why did you invite three at once?" ”

Lu Zhi replied: "Not much, one is good at making courtyards, one is good at repairing some roads, such as the diversion of the soup spring, and the other is good at making houses. ”

When Yi Yu heard that he had invited a craftsman who could repair the water diversion device of the soup spring, he replied with a smile: "Then the eldest brother should go quickly, and I will go to the inn with my mother to book a room." ”

After speaking, he ran into the house, turned over a money bag, came out, grabbed Lu's arm, who was still nagging with Lu Zhi, and pulled her out of the door.
