They've only just moved here, who's going to look for them?
Or did you come to find someone who used to live here?
Lu Jia and Chun Bao looked at each other, and when Chun Bao was about to get up, Lu Jia pressed her shoulder, "You go back to the room and draw pictures, I'll go and have a look."

"Miss calls me for something." Chun Bao didn't refute, and took the blueprint back to the room.

A habit developed in the military.

Habitually obey orders, rather than refute according to their own ideas.

Lu Jia walked to the door, and first listened to the movement outside, but couldn't hear anything, so he stretched out his hand and opened the door a little.

"Master Zhao?"

Zhao Du was wearing casual clothes and was standing outside the door.

Lu Jia opened the door in shock.

Zhao Du was a young student with a fair face, wearing a jade white robe, wide shoulders, narrow waist and long legs, making him look even more handsome.

With a warm smile on his face, he said to Lu Jia: "Just now I went to the tavern to look for you. The tavern guy said that you might be here. I'll try my luck. Unexpectedly, you are really here."

Lu Jia smiled in surprise, "Is Master Zhao looking for something for me?"

Zhao Du put one hand behind his back, twirled his fingers lightly, twisted his fingertips, lowered his eyes to look at Lu Jia, his eyes were eager and cautious, "It's the Lantern Festival in a few days, do you want to see the lanterns?" ?”

Lu Jia: .
Zhao Du is asking her out?
After a quick thought, Lu Jia smiled and said, "Which day is the Lantern Festival? Is it lively? I've never seen a Lantern Festival in Kyoto before. Well, brother Zhao came in to talk?"

Zhao Du shook his head and said with a smile, "It's not convenient if you don't go in."

Lonely and widowed, Lu Jia has a bad reputation.

"The Lantern Festival is one of the most lively festivals in Kyoto, second only to the [-]th day of the first lunar month. When the lanterns are lit at night, people will put lanterns on the banks of the Jinshui River to pray for blessings." Tianhou, do you want to go shopping? That day, everyone will go together, and I can be a guide for you and Chunbao."

Lu Jia smiled and said, "Okay, if I'm free then, I'll go."

On Zhao Du's face, there was joy visible to the naked eye, "Okay, on the day of the Lantern Festival, I went down from the Yamen to the tavern to look for you. Miss Lu San is busy, so I'll go first."

Looking at Zhao Du's back with hands and feet, Lu Jia withdrew his eyes and smiled, turned his head and closed the door and went back.

Chun Bao was drawing a picture, but when he heard footsteps, he didn't raise his head, "Who is it?"

"Zhao Du." Lu Jia said.

"Him? What is he here for?" Chun Bao raised his eyelids and glanced at Lu Jia, then lowered his eyes and concentrated on drawing.

Digging secret roads and secret rooms is very particular. The opening point must be selected accurately, and there must be no deviation.

Lu Jia said: "It's the Lantern Festival and you want to invite me to watch the lanterns. You draw the picture first, and then talk about it after the drawing is finished. I'll go to the tooth store and ask them to pay attention to some maids and nurses."

Chun Bao said: "Our people will not be able to reach the capital until about ten days later."

"It's okay, I'll talk to the tooth shop first, let them pay attention, we will choose, when our people arrive, just let them find a chance to enter the eyes of the toothmaid, and then sell them to us through the relationship of the tooth shop , this relationship is logical, and no one can find out what's wrong."

After Lu Jia had made all the arrangements, Chun Bao didn't ask any more questions, and just concentrated on drawing with his head down.

By the time Lu Jia came back from the tooth shop, Chun Bao had just finished a painting.

"The pit opening in our courtyard, the exit of Gulou Street, and the route have all been drawn. The only thing left is the exit point on the other side of the moat. I'll take a look at it tomorrow." Chun Bao handed the blueprint to Lu Jia.

Lu Jia looked carefully up and down, and asked Chunbao, "Remember?"

Chun Bao said: "Don't worry, remember to be strict, you have read it and there is no problem, just burn it."

There was a candle burning in the room, and Lu Jia put the drawing that Chun Bao had just made on top of the candle, and when the flames licked it, the paper ignited and turned into ashes in an instant.

The rules they have developed over the years.

Confidential things are only kept in the mind, and there is no chance of leaving a trace of correspondence in the future.

Those stories were made up in the scriptures, and all kinds of criminal evidences were found in some prince's mansion every now and then. What the hell, who would honestly put their own criminal evidence in the dark compartment of the study and wait for one day to be searched.

Are you afraid that it will be destroyed if you burn it?
After the drawing was finished, Chun Bao said: "Miss talked about the Lantern Festival, but the maidservant remembered that a few days ago, the shopkeeper and the boys in the tavern seemed to be discussing what kind of lantern they wanted to make, it seemed to be Drum Tower Shops on the main street, every household has to put lanterns in front of their own doors."

Lu Jia said: "Now that the criminal department is investigating the bombing case, it is targeting the household department. This Lantern Festival is an opportunity. We can meet with the household department secretary for a while."

"That old dog has never allocated military expenses to us." Speaking of the Minister of the Household Department, Chun Bao gritted his teeth, "But the bombing did not kill Duke Zhen. When will we make up for it?"

Lu Jiadao: "After the bombing, everyone in the Zhen Guogong's mansion knew that someone was going to attack their Duke. Now the mansion is heavily guarded, and it's too dangerous to attack rashly. Don't worry, let him recuperate. In the past few days, you My task is to spend money, disguise myself and go to Chunxi Building to spend three days for me, trying to find out something useful."

When Chun Bao heard that he was going to Chunxi Building, his eyes lit up immediately, "Go to the brothel at public expense?"

Lu Jia stretched out his hand and flicked her mind, "There is a mission."

Chun Bao smiled and said, "Hey, if you can visit the brothel, as long as the money is in place, if you can't complete any tasks, Miss, just wait for my news. Can you order a girl?"

Lu Jia couldn't laugh or cry, "Do you have abilities?"

Chun Bao rolled his eyes, "What you're saying is that you have a problem with your thinking. You have to be functional to be a girl? I can't just appreciate beauties? But, I spent so much money in Chunxi Building, what if Xiao Gou smelled it? What should I do if I investigate? That dog has a good sense of smell in case investigation."

Lu Jia said: "It's okay, this time the Lu family cheated me so much, I asked her for a house, Xiao Yan asked, and I said she secretly gave me another sum of money to seal my mouth and let me not mention Xiao Yi. The fact that the tavern is looking for me, the Lu family can't explain it with eight hundred mouths, after all, it is the fact that Xiao Yi is looking for me."

Xiao Yi: I am the chosen tool of heaven?
Three days passed in a flash.

Near the yamen's dismissal, Xiao Yan was clearing up the official documents on the table, Thirteen hurried in from the outside, "My lord, the eyeliner at the Chunxi Building sent back a message, saying that in the past few days, someone has been inquiring about the family of the Minister of the Household Department .”

Xiao Yan paused after tidying up, "How many days?"

Thirteenth said: "He didn't realize it at first, but it was today when he realized it, so it's a bit difficult to deduce when that person started. He is a handsome young man, about sixteen or seventeen years old, Spend generously."
