Until he returned to Lujiazhuang, Lu Chen had not figured out what kind of mount he could find for Feng Huai. However, Lu Chen was still planning to ask Li Shimin to get one of his "Six Horses of Zhaoling" for Feng Huai to try. They all helped Changsun Wugu control his "qi disease". Li Shimin wouldn't deny him face for such a small thing, right?
Besides, not only does the future Empress Changsun need to control her "qi disease", but Princess Changle, who is said to be "the one who is loved by thousands of people", also needs this medicine, even though Her Royal Highness is only two years old now.
Naturally, Liu Jing and Feng Huai didn't know what Lu Chen was planning. However, after entering the study, Feng Huai stood guard outside the door. Lu Chen took a sip of tea first, then put down the teacup and greeted Liu Jing in front of him.
"Look back, you go pick a few clever leaders from the Beiwei Guards, and then ask them to lead about ten Beiwei Guards, and place them all in those escort offices, carrier pigeons, one in the dark and one in the dark. I don't need to teach you the rest. Are you ready?" Lu Chen told Liu Jing these words, and then looked at Liu Jing.
"Master, don't worry, I know what to do!" After following Lu Chen for so long, even though Liu Jing is young, he is no longer the young boy in the blacksmith shop, and others will never see him again. He has met the emperor several times, and coupled with the "nurturing" by Lu Chen's side, he also knows how to "give both kindness and power".
"It's good that you know! I'll leave this matter to you!" Lu Chen nodded and didn't say much. It can be said that the matter of the escort agency this time was just for Liu Jing's experience. As for what happens if something happens? Of course, Lu Chen had a way to answer the question.
"Yes!" Since his father-in-law has entrusted this matter to him, Liu Jing naturally wants to handle it smoothly. Liu Jing is very familiar with Lao Beiwei Wei, so who should he send to take the people there? , Liu Jing already had a hint of intention in his heart. Liu Jing exited the study and went straight to the Beiweiwei camp.
Not long after Liu Jing left, Lu Chen was looking at the map when he heard someone knocking on the study door.
"What's the matter?" Lu Chen asked directly.
"Sir, Commander Su is here!" Feng Huai, who was guarding the door, responded.
"Come in!" Lu Chen responded directly, followed by the study door being opened by Su Dingfang, and walked in quickly.
Seeing Su Dingfang looking in a hurry, Lu Chen sat on a chair and looked at Su Dingfang and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Master! I received the letter from Fei Ge!" After Su Dingfang saluted Lu Chen, he took out a small bamboo tube from his belt and presented it to Lu Chen.
"Huh?!" Lu Chen, who originally wanted to pick up the tea cup and take a sip of tea, immediately gave up the idea after hearing Su Dingfang's words. He reached for the small bamboo tube that Su Dingfang handed him, opened the bamboo tube and took out a cup of tea. He rolled up the note and started reading.
"Haha! This is Lao Meng's news!" After reading the content on the note, Lu Chen laughed directly, and then handed the note to Su Dingfang.
Su Dingfang took it and looked at it. There were only twelve words on the note, "We have arrived in Yingzhou. Everything is fine. Please don't miss me!"
"It seems that Lao Meng will arrive in Danyang soon!" Seeing the word "Yingzhou" on the note, Su Dingfang also laughed. After all, he had just received a letter from Fei Ge, and this was the first time he had received a letter from Fei Ge. Su Dingfang didn't dare to delay when the pigeon passed the message, so he hurried to find his father-in-law. Now that he saw the content of the message, Su Dingfang secretly admired his father-in-law. This method of sending messages was much easier to use than those at the post station.
"Reply him!" Lu Chen said directly to Su Dingfang.
"I don't know how to reply?" Su Dingfang looked at Lu Chen and asked.
"Act according to the plan, be cautious!" Lu Chen tapped his fingers on the table a few times. After thinking about it for a while, he said eight words directly to Su Dingfang.
"Yes! I'll do it now!" Su Dingfang nodded and accepted the order, then exited the study, while Lu Chen continued to look at the map.
Yingzhou is not close to Chang'an. It seems that Meng Ji and his men should have taken the water route. After all, "eight rivers circle Chang'an". If Meng Ji and his gang could reach Yingzhou so quickly, they should have taken the Yinghe River road. .
Calculating the days, the next time Fei Ge comes back from delivering a message, it should be when Meng Ji and the others arrive in Danyang.
Historically, Fugong and Zuo Youxian rebelled in August of this year. Now Meng Ji has led his people to Yingzhou. It is still about half a year before Fugong seizes Wang Xiong's military power under the pretext of Du Fuwei's letter. This period of time should be enough for Meng Ji to complete his plan.
Lu Chen put away the map, then leaned back in his chair, tapping the table and thinking about it.
Just when Lu Chen was thinking about any loopholes in Meng Ji's plan, someone knocked on the study door again.
"Who?" Lu Chen, who was disturbed and deep in thought, asked directly in a deep voice.
"Master, someone sent a letter!" The voice this time was Su Chang's.
"Come in!" After Lu Chen said in a deep voice, Su Chang opened the door and walked in.
"Who sent the letter?" Looking at the letter in Su Chang's hand, Lu Chen asked with a slight eyebrow raised.
After Su Chang paid tribute to Lu Chen, she reported back: "Hui Gongye, he is a man dressed as a servant. He came to the entrance of the village, handed the letter to Commander Lian, and then left!" Su Chang said and presented the letter to Mr. In front of Lu Chen.
"Young man?" Hearing Su Chang's words, Lu Chen frowned slightly, but still reached out and took the "letter" that Su Chang presented to him.
The letters of this era did not have the kraft paper envelopes of later generations. The so-called envelopes of this era were two pieces of thick cocoon paper with a folded letter sandwiched between them. Both pieces of thick cocoon paper were painted with carp patterns, so the envelope of this era was The letter is also called "double carp", and the double carp is tied with fine hemp rope in a cross shape.
There is a fire paint seal at the knot of the hemp rope, but there is no seal or anything like that. It is just a simple fire paint seal plus a feather.
Lu Chen weighed the "letter" and at the same time picked up the knotted area and inspected it to make sure there was no problem. Then he took off the paint, opened the "double carp", and opened the letter sandwiched in the middle to read.
"Haha! I didn't expect these guys to be really tempted!" Looking at the contents of the letter, Lu Chen laughed directly, and his smile was extremely happy.
Seeing how happy Lu Chen was after reading the contents of the letter, Su Chang consciously exited the study.
"Looks like this move is right!" Lu Chen threw the letter and "Double Carp" directly into the iron furnace. Watching the letter and "Double Carp" burn in the iron furnace, Lu Chen said to himself He said something, and Lu Chen's handsome face, which was directly reflected by the flames, flickered, "This is also a good opportunity to test those escort agencies!" Looking at the burned letters and "Double Carp", Lu Chen smiled slightly A smile.
