Chapter 628: Rare Treasures
It was almost noon, Feng Zhanggong walked into the inner hall and invited Zhou Changying, Ning Wuwu, and Lin Wan to the dining room for lunch. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although the eldest princess's mansion is very large, it is well planned, and Zhou Changying usually eats and lives in this palace, so the dining room is not far away. Out of the side hall, the left is the dining room, the right is Zhou Changying's bedroom, and the opposite is the main hall for guests, which is usually not used.
The cuisine is mainly vegetarian, and since Ning Yuma's death, Zhou Changying has been a vegetarian, and it has not changed over the years. Today, because Ning Wuwu and Lin Wan were there, a few more meat dishes were added. Because I didn't know what the two young ladies liked, I made some of the various dishes and filled the table.
Lin Wan's appetite has always been very good, which caused Zhou Changying and Ning Wuwu to also have a great appetite, and they ate more than usual.
After lunch, Zhou Changying led Lin Wan and Ning Wuwu to appreciate her collection of calligraphy and paintings, and by the way, they took a break to eliminate food.
Leaving the palace and passing through a gallery, one came across a very elegant courtyard, which was very large, with five rooms, each of which was spacious and very well ventilated.
This courtyard has a very elegant name, called "Fog Leaning Peak". The words are also very beautifully written, strong and powerful, just and soft, and the inscription is "Ning Yunheng".
Walking into Wuyi Peak, Zhou Changying's expression became quiet and lonely, as if he was caught in thoughts and memories. She pointed to the room in the middle and whispered to Ning Wuwu: "That's your second uncle's study, and the one next to it is my study." When your second uncle was alive, my study was never used, because I preferred to write in his study. With that, he slowly walked towards the book.
Everything in the study was neatly arranged, as if no one had touched it, but everything was spotless, and it was obvious that someone came to clean it carefully every day.
Lin Wan and Ning Wuwu stood in the middle of the study, looking at the shelves around them full of various types of ancient books, each of which was a little old. Lin Wan and Ning Wuwu didn't dare to touch anything, and after watching it for a while, they followed Zhou Changying out of the study.
Zhou Changying's study is more cluttered, the desk is full of words written by her essays, as well as copied Buddhist scriptures, and the four walls are full of famous paintings and calligraphy, all of which are rare and unique, and some are even unheard of.
After visiting the study, I finally came to Zhou Changying's private collection room. There are only two long desks in the whole room, the desks are full of scrolls, and the walls of the room are also covered with calligraphy and paintings, most of which are painted with the theme of green bamboo, and most of the calligraphy works are similar to Ning Yunheng's font style. It can be seen that these paintings and calligraphy are also Ning Yunheng's favorites.
Lin Wan casually unfolded a scroll of paintings on the table, which turned out to be the calligraphy treasure of a famous calligraphy master of the previous dynasty. Another volume is also a priceless ancient painting. Although Lin Wan doesn't know much about the history and culture of this time and space, she has also read a lot of miscellaneous books, and has a certain understanding of some famous artists and the value of their works.
Not to mention anything else, the masterpieces of this courtyard alone are exchanged for silver, which is enough to buy half of the houses and shops in the capital. However, these rare and rare treasures in the world, even unique items, who is willing to exchange them for silver?
Lin Wan and Ning Wuwu didn't know much about these treasures, and while watching, they listened to Zhou Changying's explanation, but they gained a lot of knowledge.
When it was almost time to reach Shen, Feng Zhanggong walked in, bowed slightly to Zhou Changying, and reminded in a low voice: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the time has come." ”
Zhou Changying nodded slightly, and explained to Ning Wuwu and Lin Wan: "This hour of the day is the time for me to chant and meditate, do you want to watch here for a while, or go out for a walk?"
Lin Wan saw that Ning Wuwu didn't say anything, and hurriedly replied: "I want to go out for a walk with Sister Wuwu, so that I can be familiar with the terrain of the master, so as not to get lost next time." ”
Zhou Changying hooked his lips and smiled, "Do you want me to find someone to lead you the way?"
Lin Wan shook his head and said with a smile: "No need, I have a good memory, and I can't lose it." ”
Zhou Changying nodded and said, "You guys come with me." The Buddhist hall where I chant is in the backyard, you can go to the backyard and take a walk, the scenery there is not bad. ”
Out of the fog and leaning on the peak, I walked east along a path, and after not going far, I saw an arch. Beyond this arch, the view of the backyard is indeed very different from the style of the front yard.
Pavilions, pavilions, water pavilions, rockeries, and dense forests are like suddenly walking into a painting. Moreover, some of the scenery is what I saw in those paintings just now, the paintings were painted by Ning Yunheng, and the words were inscribed by Zhou Changying, but I didn't expect to see the scenery in the paintings so quickly.
Lin Wan couldn't help but sigh, how loving and happy Zhou Changying and Ning Yunheng should have been back then! Unfortunately, now that they are separated by yin and yang, it is no wonder that after so many years, Zhou Changying is willing to guard the eldest princess's mansion and live such a cold and desolate life.
More than ten years ago, when Ning Yunheng died, Zhou Changying was only in his thirties, as the eldest princess who was favored by the queen mother and the emperor, it was naturally not difficult to marry a man with comparable talent and appearance, and how many young talents still admired the talent and heroism of the eldest princess.
Although Zhou Changying never dressed herself, her appearance was slightly aging because she missed her deceased husband day and night. However, it still did not completely cover up her peerless elegance back then. Especially in the past two days, Lin Wan has seen Zhou Changying's warm and soft side, seen the look in her eyebrows and eyes and her full of talent, and has both respect and love for her.
Looking at the beautiful scenery in front of him, Lin Wan couldn't help but sigh: "Master, you are so beautiful here, can I also come to stay for a few days?"
Zhou Changying smiled happily and said, "Wan'er can come and live at any time, your worry-free sister's yard is big, you can come and live with her, or you can stay for a long time." We can't ask for it!"
Lin Wan nodded happily and said, "Great, in a few days, when I show my father, I will come by myself after packing my luggage, and the master will not let people shut me out." ”
Zhou Changying chuckled and shook his head, and immediately turned around and ordered Feng Zhanggong, saying: "Feng Zhanggong, tell me to go down, I have already accepted the county lord of Wanxin as an apprentice, and in the future, she can come and go as she likes to come and go in this eldest princess's mansion, and arrange two rooms for her in Xiaoyou's courtyard, one for her to live in, and one for her to bring with her to live in." After speaking, he turned around, looked at Lin Wan, and asked with a smile: "Wan'er, are you quite satisfied with the arrangement for the teacher?"
Lin Wan nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "The master really loves the apprentice so much, he thinks too much about the apprentice, to be your apprentice, it must be that I built countless bridges, paved countless roads, accumulated many virtues, and practiced many good deeds in my previous life!"
