At the same time, within the Hou Mansion.

A few servants dressed in ordinary clothes suddenly broke in from the gate of Hou's Mansion, and rushed into the mansion with panicked expressions.

"General waiting! General waiting—"

Several servants shouted.

Just as Cai Yun came out of Hou Junji's study, seeing these guys who looked flustered and acted recklessly, he immediately frowned and gave them a look.

"What's the noise? General Hou is taking a nap! Don't make any noise!"

The two servants were so frightened that cold sweat broke out all over their bodies, and they immediately cupped their hands towards Cai Yun. At the same time, they tilted their heads to see that there seemed to be no one in the study, and whispered in a low voice: "Cai Gong... there is a merchant in the East City. The team was smashed by people from the bookstore, it is said that it was Li Ze's people, the leader was Cheng An, and his attire was very ordinary, it looked like he should be a villager in that village."

"Oh?" Cai Yun started to stroke his beard just after hearing half of it, his expression became dignified, and he nodded thoughtfully.

"what's up?"

"Why is there so much noise outside the house?" Hou Junji came out of the house sleepily, with anger still on his face.

Seeing several servants standing with Cai Yun, Hou Junji walked towards Cai Yun.

Seeing Hou Junji coming out of the house, Cai Yun hurriedly saluted Hou Junji, while those servants were even more terrified, with their heads lowered and their waists hunched in cold sweat, like prawns that had been falling into a frying pan. Usually, the cheeks are hot, and the heart is anxious and fearful, very uneasy.

"What's going on? Any news?"

Hou Junji didn't even look at these servants, Cai Yun was present, so it would be better to ask Cai Yun directly if he asked these servants.

Cai Yun bent towards Hou Junji, obviously feeling Hou Junji's anger, and immediately said: "I disturbed General Hou's afternoon nap, and hoped that General Hou will make amends. The two said just now that Li Ze's convoy is in Dongshi City. It was smashed, so I came here to report to the general."

"That's it?" Hou Junji frowned immediately, and his face suddenly became annoyed.

Cai Yun's mind quickly started to work, and before Hou Junji got angry, he said quickly: "General Hou, please calm down. I think... I think this is an opportunity..."

"Oh?" Hou Junji glared at the two hunched servants in front of him, turned to look at Cai Yun and said, "Opportunity? What opportunity?"

Cai Yun swallowed his saliva, and after calming down, he said: "The villain thought that Li Er would not just sit idly by when the carriage team was messed up, but now he has very few helpers around him, General Waiting Why not bring dozens of servants to help the convoy?"

"General Hou wants to get close to Li Ze, today is a great opportunity!"

After hearing this, Hou Junji tore off the blanket he was wearing, threw it to the two servants in front of him and said: "Go and bring the horses and bring twenty servants with you."

After finishing speaking, he pointed to another person and said, "Tell me, what is the origin of the team and what are they here for?"

The servant holding the blanket hurriedly ran out of the yard with his waist bowed, while the other man didn't dare to raise his head, and bowed his hands to Hou Junji very humblely and said: "I am waiting for the order of the general waiting, Watching around Chang'an Avenue, I happened to see Li Ze leading a long line of donkey carts and ox carts approaching from outside the city..."

Not long ago...

Cheng An and Xue Li led the remaining carts all the way north along Zhuque Street, while Li Ze's donkey cart was lighter, and it left the sight of everyone early and disappeared into the sea of ​​people.

Sadly walking along Suzaku Street, everyone passed Li Ze's Suzaku mansion.

Holding the slender Mo Dao, Xue Li looked at the bustling Zhuque Street, the people setting up stalls around and some caravans somewhat similar to his own, feeling very excited.

"Is this the city of Chang'an? It's really as prosperous as the rumors say..." Xue Li looked around, looking at the horses on both sides of the road, as well as many passers-by in luxurious clothes, and even some well-dressed people. Some weird aliens.

However, since smallpox, the number of foreigners who came to Chang'an has decreased a lot, and those who appear in the city now are basically resident in Chang'an.

"It would be great if I could live in Chang'an City one day. This big house... I don't know how much money it takes to buy it..."

Cheng An, who was behind him, heard Xue Li's yearning words, and immediately pointed to a house with a closed door next to them and said, "The big house here doesn't need money."

"For example, this one is Dr. Li's house, and he didn't ask for a penny."

"Ah?" Xue Li immediately froze in place, looked up at the plaque on the gate tower, and saw the inscription: "Li County Marquis Mansion" in four large characters.

"Li... Li County... what house?" Xue Li looked up at the gold plaque, with a golden light shining in his eyes.

"The Mansion of Marquis of Li County!" Cheng An added: "Doctor Li, also known as Doctor Li, was gifted by His Majesty to the Marquis of Chang'an County. This house was also given to Dr. Li by His Majesty, without asking for a penny!"

After speaking, Cheng An patted Xue Li on the shoulder and said, "You are still young, and you have made great achievements with Dr. Li, His Majesty will give you such a big house!"

The two joked and said, when the names of the villages behind them learned, they looked up at this magnificent mansion in surprise, and expressed their amazement.

"Tsk tsk tsk... Doctor Li is really a young talent. He has made such achievements at such a young age. It is really enviable for His Majesty to confer such a high reward on a child!" Several young village names looked at this The longing in the eyes of the huge mansion almost overflowed.

Village head Du Mao looked up at this magnificent house with his thin and old eyes, and immediately patted the man next to him on the back and said: "Tch! You guys, I just saw Dr. Li being rewarded and knighted, so you can see Dr. Li's medical skills? "

"If you have the methods and medical skills of Dr. Li, why don't you worry about not having these rewards?"

"What's more, Dr. Li owns such a mansion, such a noble man, and he didn't enjoy the blessings in Chang'an City. Instead, he lived with us in a dilapidated wooden house in Gaoling County. Isn't it admirable?"

"A group of guys who only want to enjoy themselves will never get these rewards in their lifetime! Give me a cart!"

Du Mao patted the backs of several young people with a look of hatred. He himself was very envious of this big village, but besides envy, Du Mao knew very well the gap between himself and his children and Dr. Li. Not just worlds apart.

"Let's go, let's go! Let's pass by the imperial city and go around the city wall to Dongshi!"

Cheng An led the team all the way north to the foot of the imperial city of Chang'an.

Seeing the tall and flat city wall, and the guards of the imperial city surrounded by sturdy, majestic and imposing figures, everyone sighed again.

Through the huge imperial city gate, looking at the palace buildings inside, as well as the surrounding decorations and flat bluestone floor tiles, the envy and yearning in his eyes almost filled the entire Chang'an city.

"Hey! If I can go in and take a walk, I will be satisfied!" Xue Li looked at the luxurious buildings and neat floor tiles in the imperial city, and he didn't know how to describe his excitement and excitement.

"Hahaha... Go in and take a walk? The old man is lucky. When His Majesty ascended the throne, he was fortunate enough to enter the imperial city once! He also met His Majesty!"
