The purpose of Chen Ran's trip was not Longquan Villa, but in Luoyang City.

After all, if you don't understand the enemy now, if you go rashly, you will probably be planted in it.

As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible. If you want to take out an enemy, the first thing you have to do is know the enemy.

Chen Ran immediately thought of the chief catcher of the three states, Shi Ling Tian.

This Shi Lingtian was obviously aware of his secret, but he did not hide that he already knew the secret, but expressed it euphemistically.

From this point of view, this Shi Lingtian has no ill will towards himself.

And judging from the conversation between him and the little marquis, there is discord between the two people. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come out for Han Qingying's little tie that night.

After all, there is a difference of several levels between the chief catcher of the three states and the head catcher of the government office.

The enemy of the enemy is a friend, if you want to know the inside story of Longquan Villa, it is the best choice to ask this Shi Lingtian.

Ninghuafang is located in the lower reaches of the Luohe River, not far from Luoyang, and the horses under Chen Ran's crotch are extraordinary. In less than half an hour, he had arrived outside the south gate of Luoyang.

Chen Ran looked around, the wide Luo River lay in front of him, and the speed of the river was neither rapid nor slow. is like an old man who walks alone, silently watching the prosperity and loneliness of Luoyang City from ancient times to the present.

Connecting the two banks of the Luo River is the world-famous Xingjin Bridge. This bridge has a history of hundreds of years and was built on the basis of the old bridge in the Eastern Han Dynasty during the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty. The stone walls of the railing of the bridge are covered with poems written by the people of the world, like graffiti.

Some of the poems shocked the world and have been passed down for thousands of years along with the owners of the poems. Some poems have disappeared into history.

The fire tree and silver flowers are closed, and the iron lock of the star bridge is opened. The dark dust goes with the horse, and the bright moon comes one by one. The wanderers are all plums, and the songs are all plums. Jin Wu can't help the night, and the jade leak is not urging.

This poem is specially used to describe the grand occasion of Luoyang Xingjin Bridge in the Tang Dynasty.

At this time, although the Xingjin Bridge lived up to the excitement of the year, there were still crowds of people on and off the bridge, and it was very lively.

Chen Ran rode onto the carriage and horse road of Xingjin Bridge, and honestly followed the carriage into the city.

Although he is on the edge of Luoyang City, he has only entered Luoyang City a handful of times. On the one hand, because the prices of things in the city are expensive, and only during the New Year's holidays can there be a desire to consume; On the other hand, it is because there are many dignitaries and nobles in the city, and there are many rules, and it is too noisy, so it is better to be at home and comfortable.

He asked for the road in the city, and walked along the carriage road to Shifuzhong.

It seems that Shi Lingtian's popularity is very good, and when Chen Ran asked, the old man who pointed the way seemed to be quite proud of being able to help the guests of Shi Mansion.

Today, the Daping Dynasty has a weaker and weaker grip on the states. The people's sense of security is very low, and it is undoubtedly a huge sense of security to have a chief catcher who is willing to do practical things to live in the city.

After a huge archway, you will arrive at a house that looks imposing, which is the Shifu.

I saw two large stone lions in front of the door, each lion has ten large jewels, symbolizing the noble three-grade official body of Shifu.

The red lacquered gate, the golden nails, and the guards in the costumes of the fast catcher on both sides. It doesn't seem to be much more magnificent than the façade of the Changxing Dart Bureau.

Chen Ran turned over and dismounted, stepped forward, bowed and said, "Under Chen Ran, I ask to see Lord Shi." ”

The guard looked him up and down and asked, "What are you doing?" Why do you want to see my family? ”

"In the young owner of the Xia Changxing Dart Bureau, I have something to ask to see." Chen Ran replied.

The guards looked him up and down, and said with a disdainful expression on his face: "Changxing Dart Bureau? Haven't heard of it. ”

Another guard looked impatient and said, "Go, go, when this is a vegetable market?" All cats and dogs come to meet adults. ”

Chen Ran's face was as usual, he took out two pieces of broken silver from his arms, handed them to the two people quietly, and said, "Please ask the two little brothers to help inform me." ”

He doesn't want to do a lot of things, and the problems that can be solved with a small amount of money are not a problem. Anyway, it was snatched from the bandits' den.

The two guards glanced at each other and held the silver in their arms.

One of the guards looked Chen Ran up and down, and his tone became a little polite; "You're sincere. Then I'll report to you, but my lord has a lot of opportunities, and I can't say for sure. ”

"Thank you." Chen Ran smiled.

The guard opened the side door, collapsed halfway in, and turned his head again, "What did you just say?" ”

"Changxing Dart Bureau, Chen Ran."

"This dart game is so ordinary, unheard of." The guard muttered, and went in to report.

Chen Ran waited silently outside, and another guard chatted with Chen Ran with a match: "Brother, I see that you are very young, but you are also on the road, let me tell you." If you want to ask Lord Shi to do something, it's best to go to the government office and don't come here. ”

"Oh? Why is that? Chen Ran asked.

The guard glanced at Chen Ran and said, "The difference in rank is too big." What is the identity of Master Shi? Every day, the people who receive them are the heroes of the rivers and lakes, the famous elders of the famous families, and the big cases that shock the rivers and lakes. A small dart game like you, even if there is any case, even if the dart team is killed by bandits, you can't get into the eyes of his old man.

As the saying goes: county officials are not as good as being in charge. You should go to Luoyang Mansion and find the clothes and catchers there, they should be in charge of your business. ”

"Thank you little brother for the reminder." Chen Ran smiled.

The guard took two steps closer to Chen Ran and said in a low voice: "I see that you are honest and sensible, but I can help you introduce some Luoyang Mansion's clothes and catchers." It's just that it depends on whether you are sincere in making friends...."

The guard spoke cryptically, but the meaning of the bribe was obvious.

Chen Ran politely refused: "Thank you, little brother, when I have a need, I will definitely contact you." ”

When the guard heard Chen Ran say this, his face suddenly sank, and he said, "When you have a need, it's too late." Hmph, I don't know how to lift. ”

As he spoke, he stood back in his place and said, "I advise you to go, you are a small dart head of a small dart game, and it is impossible for Lord Shi to see you." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he only heard a 'squeak', and the main entrance of the Shifu slowly opened.

The guard was startled and hurriedly stood aside.

I saw Shi Lingtian personally walking out of the main entrance, followed by a housekeeper. A master and a servant greet each other in person, which can be described as a solemn matter.

And the guards who had just gone to report also followed, bending over with a look of sincere fear.

I saw Shi Lingtian clasping his fists with his hands to Chen Ran and said, "Chen Shaoxia, everyone is here, it really makes the contemptible mansion shine." ”

Chen Ran hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Don't dare." It's really a nuisance to take the liberty of visiting. ”

Shi Lingtian laughed and said, "Don't say kind words, please." ”

As he spoke, he leaned to the side, waved his hand, and invited Chen Ran to enter the house.

Seeing that Shi Lingtian entered the mansion with Chen Ran, the two guards who had just received Chen Ran's money glanced at each other, both shocked and inexplicable.

What kind of person is this young man, who can let Lord Shi open the middle door to greet him?

This is the treatment of a faction leader, or a hero...

They hurriedly took out the two pieces of broken silver that they had just accepted from Chen Ran's bribes, and looked at each other.

How high should the status of the person who can make Lord Shi open the middle door to greet him? The two of their little guards were actually bribed by such a person.

How can I get this back.....
