The county lord's mansion located in Nanxunfang is not far away, which is because it is considered to be closer to the palace and convenient to return to the palace. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info waited for the sedan chair to be stationed in the place, and Zhang Zhaohua got off the sedan chair and entered the mansion that was not yet fully completed with the lord of Yongping.

This mansion was originally supposed to be the residence of the nobles of the Yuan Mengda officials, and it was selected to build here as the county lord's mansion because the houses, stone foundations, wall tiles and other things are ready-made, and only need to be slightly rebuilt in accordance with the regulations, according to the regulations, the county lord's mansion is lower than the princess's mansion by a specification, for example, the princess's mansion hall is nine, the county lord is the hall seven, and the rest of the trick beast spine, beams, buildings, buckets, eaves and eaves are painted in color, in addition to not using gold, they can not carve too many colors. The green oil of the main gate, the copper ring, and the wall tiles, the princess can be engraved with exquisite patterns, and the county lord stipulates the pattern of auspicious clouds. Now the craftsmen in this house are busy with these patterning things, and it will not be long before it will be completely completed. In addition, there is no other difference, and Zhang Zhaohua looked around, and felt that the place that King Yan chose for his daughter should be much more comfortable than the Jiangdu county lord in Nanjing, with the dense population of Nanjing, the courtyard atrium is crowded next to the ground, not as generous as the house in Beiping.

"What do you think," Zhang Zhaohua asked, "are you still satisfied?"

Yongping had to come over to read it in person, Zhang Zhaohua thought that the princess would not agree, but the princess seemed to hesitate for a moment and let her go, which can be regarded as unreasonable, because the princess is actually strict in discipline, and each county lord has a master who specializes in teaching morality and speech, and disciplines them in every word and deed, which are all arranged by the princess, not only the county lord, but also three princes, there are not a few palace maids around to serve, and the messengers are eunuchs.

If Yongping is a woman, it's just that, she can come and go at will, but now Yongping is a person to be married, even if the place where he goes is the future residence, but he is still at odds with etiquette, but it is obvious that the princess seems to be a little distracted, and the grandmothers and grandmothers around Yongping are obviously controlled by Yongping, and they dare not say a word to dissuade them.

Helplessly, Zhang Zhaohua had to take a trip, and it was impossible to let Yongping bring people to the county lord's mansion alone, but it was not so criticized by Zhang Zhaohua, Zhang Zhaohua brought the experienced craftsmen of Gongzheng and the deacon of the manufacturing office, these people entered the house and began to check carefully, but Zhang Zhaohua followed Yongping, she wanted to know the reason why Yongping had to leave the palace unusually.

"Sister-in-law," Yongping walked three rooms all the way, and when he saw that Zhang Zhaohua was still beside her, he said: "You go and check it yourself, I just want to see the appearance of this county lord's mansion before I want to come out, I can't go out of the palace a few times a year, I really feel bored and panicked, and it is easy to have such an opportunity to come out and breathe." ”

Zhang Zhaohua did not dispel his suspicions because of this, and said: "I know that this is the reason, you are so bored and panicked, but think about it, you will get married in a few months, and then the entire Beiping City will be at your disposal, why can't you even stay at this time!"

Yongping couldn't answer, and said in two sentences: "It's not that he hasn't surrendered after all, as long as he seizes the opportunity, he wants to go out to play." ”

Zhang Zhaohua was just about to speak, when he heard what seemed to be a louder voice in the main hall, as if he had found something, Yongping said "ho" and said, "I think something has been found, sister-in-law, go and take a look, I'll go around this room." ”

Zhang Zhaohua hurried to the main hall and saw three or four craftsmen gathered together, pointing to the ground. Zhang Zhaohua asked what was going on, and they pointed to the largest Huanghuali table in the center of the hall and said, "This thing seems to be a little wrong." ”

Zhang Zhaohua said: "What's wrong?"

"It's like a magic trick. "There is a craftsman road.

Zhang Zhaohua was stunned for a moment, "Magic-"

After the craftsman's explanation, Zhang Zhaohua understood that the so-called "magic" did not refer to the later performing arts, this word is a special word in the carpentry industry, referring to the restoration of a damaged, dirty, loose or deformed piece of furniture to its original appearance, this whole process is called magic.

"How can this be?" Zhang Zhaohua said incredulously.

However, I didn't expect other craftsmen to have a saying, and they didn't agree on it: "I don't think it's magic, I think it's mountain climbing." ”

Mountain climbing is another word that refers to old furniture that has been repaired.

The meaning of the two is similar in Zhang Zhaohua's opinion, but everyone admits that this is an old product, not a new one, which can be attributed to the craftsmen who made this batch of furniture, and the businessman in charge of the comprador in the middle is also responsible for grinding the old goods and sending them to the palace.

"This furniture was sent over, and it stands to reason that you Gongzheng will send someone to inspect it," Zhang Zhaohua said in a stern tone: "Why did you only see that it was wrong now, what did you do at that time!"

"Niangniang Mingjian," the carpenter shouted: "At that time, Ge Changshi only gave us less than an hour to let us see, we can only look at it in general once, and confirm that it is Huanghuali is correct, and we didn't have time to take a closer look." ”

"Then do you think this is a good thing?" Zhang Zhaohua asked.

"Yes," said the carpenter at the head, "except for this old item, everything else is open." Speaking of which, this old goods are also open. ”

Open the door is indisputably genuine, it seems that the material, there is no major omission, these carpenters also said, this table is two meters long, nearly one meter wide, must hug the old rosewood, but now this thing is not very easy to get, if you can't find it before the construction deadline, old goods are a common choice, as long as the craftsmanship is good not to be seen.

"There's a problem with this one table," Zhang Zhaohua said, "Are other things, especially that basin shelf, all right?"

"No problem. The carpenter replied.

As soon as Zhang Zhaohua breathed a sigh of relief, he heard a report from someone outside: "Commander Yibin Li has arrived." ”

This is talking about Yongping's quasi-Yibin Li Rang, although he has not married Yongping during the small merit mourning period, but because it is a marriage given by the emperor, the title of Yibin is also right, and he and Yuan Rong, the quasi-Yibin of the county lord of Yong'an, are now the commanders of Yanshanwei.

Zhang Zhaohua thought that Yongping was still in this house, and he couldn't let the two of them meet, so he hurriedly walked out of the door, and saw that Li Rang was just waiting in the gatehouse, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

And Li Rang was also a little surprised when he saw Zhang Zhaohua coming over in person, and said, "The princess and concubine." ”

"Where are the honored guests?" Zhang Zhaohua greeted.

"I heard the noise of cars and horses here in the Yibin Mansion," Li Rang said: "Come out and take a look, sure enough, the car from the palace has arrived, I don't know what is the situation on the side of the princess?"

"It's nothing, it's just that there is a piece of furniture that doesn't fit," Zhang Zhaohua said lightly: "I'll order someone to move back, don't make a fuss about the guests." ”

Yuan Rong and Li Rang followed Zhang Zhaohua Gao Chi from Nanjing to Beiping, and they gradually became familiar with them along the way, but in the end they were still not so enthusiastic, both of them were very worried, Zhang Zhaohua also knew that he came from Nanjing to Beiping to be a son-in-law, and his heart was naturally not very obedient, but after coming to Beiping, King Yan was not bad to them, and now it seems that his spirit is much better.
