According to the normal situation, when the gate of the castle is opened, there should be a lot of male and female attendants running out from inside to greet them, but there is no here, after the gate is opened, there is a bit of silence, except for the old man who yawns in the gatehouse, Zhang Tianyuan did not see anyone else.

After passing through a few gates that looked already precarious, the car finally heard the interior of the white castle.

The more he went inside, the breath of life became thicker, because Zhang Tianyuan heard some dog barking, cat barking, and even horse neighing.

"Prince Napoleon loved horseback riding, so he had his own horse farm and had a few of his favorite horses. When Blue saw Zhang Tianyuan listening, he couldn't help but say, still in that triumphant tone.

Don't say that these things don't belong to him, even if they really belong to him, with Zhang Tianyuan's current financial resources, it is absolutely enough to buy such an ancient castle, not to mention the horse farm and horses, but Zhang Tianyuan doesn't have so much leisure time to relax, so he hasn't cultivated an interest in those things for the time being.

The white castle is more than 100 meters long and wide, and it is magnificent. In the center is the square main fort, flanked by four huge conical turrets. At the center of it is the famous "double spiral staircase", two separate sets of staircases staggered around a common axis, spiraling upwards and upwards, while people going up and down the stairs can see each other without meeting.

It is said that in order to avoid embarrassment and disputes caused by the queen and his mistress, the king specially invited the most famous architect of the time to design it, which is a unique in the history of architecture. From this staircase it is possible to access the castle terrace, in addition to the circular spire of the castle. There are also many small beautifully carved roofs on the terrace, which are the chimneys of the heaters.

Before the castle was built. There is also a somewhat military defense function, and the roof terrace of the white castle. However, it became an excellent place for kings and court nobles to enjoy the garden scenery and competitive performances.

Surrounded by a river, backed by a large forest and facing a large garden, the white castle is a great visual treat with green trees, flowers, sculptures and clear water. Similar to the ancient royal gardens in our country, the palace castle is a symbol of royal power, it is not for defense at the beginning, but for showing off and enjoyment, it embodies the gorgeous and exaggerated royal garden style. It is the perfect combination of imperial power and art.

After getting out of the car, you can see the inside of the castle more clearly, but it's just not complete. Because the greenery in it is so good, coupled with the fact that it has not been pruned for a long time, it is full of natural wildness, and many places can be said to be impermeable, and you can't see the depths at all, which makes this already mysterious castle add a bit of mystery.

However, nature always has natural benefits, artificially pruned out of the plant. It's all the same, and although it looks neat, it may not be beautiful for many people. On the contrary, the natural growth made Zhang Tianyuan even more obsessed.

He looked back at the castle and all the designs seemed so exquisite. If he could, he would really want to talk about the castle and move it back to China. But that's obviously just a thought, and it's really impossible to put it into practice.

He heard that the designer who designed the castle was a descendant of Leonardo da Vinci. This designer has only designed such a relatively famous building in his life, but this is enough, but it is a pity that Napoleon's fame is too great, and this designer is too low-key, so that in the shadow of Napoleon's name, the name is gradually forgotten.

But even if his name is forgotten, the architectural art of this castle cannot be forgotten. Although Zhang Tianyuan doesn't understand architecture, he still understands architectural art, because he studied archaeology, and he has studied ancient architecture, including Chinese and foreign, and he can help him appreciate it, which makes all the benefits of this ancient castle reflected in his eyes, which makes him feel amazed, and feels that all his troubles seem to have slipped away.

Located in the Loire Valley, the White City is surrounded by green mountains and waters, and the combination of nature and the castle is perfect.

In comparison, the courtyard house in the imperial capital is a little out of hand, although in terms of area, his courtyard is similar to the white city, but this architectural art is not comparable to the courtyard.

After all, the courtyard was built by a warlord, and this castle was the castle of Napoleon Bonaparte, where the emperor lived.

"Dear Mr. Zhang, it is my pleasure to welcome you to my castle, which is not very old, but its majesty and architectural art are recognized as outstanding. Alas, but the castle is still there, but the scenery of the Napoleonic dynasty is long gone. ”

Napoleon VII came out of the castle early in excitement, followed by two maids, but this is really a bit shabby, as the former glory of Napoleon, the life of the later generations is so greatly reduced, it is really necessary to sigh.

The two maids bent down and smiled beautifully at Zhang Tianyuan and the others.

That's right, it's really beautiful, and these two maids don't know where Napoleon VII got them from, they really have to be high-quality beauties with the potential of vixens.

Napoleon VII, as the host, hugged Zhang Tianyuan excitedly, but when he wanted to hug Liu Mengxun, he was stopped by Zhang Tianyuan.

"Thank you very much, Monsieur Napoleon, for inviting me to your castle, and to tell you the truth, if I have the chance, I would like to buy it, don't be angry, I will just say it casually, because it is so shocking, and of course there are some places that are deplorable. ”

Zhang Tianyuan didn't know how to speak, but said it on purpose, because he felt that the Napoleonic family would not be able to hold on to such a castle if they continued to maintain it, just to maintain the glory of the family, so he was reluctant to sell the castle, which was the so-called slapping a swollen face and pretending to be fat.

However, he believed that as the life of the Napoleonic family became more and more difficult, there must be such an idea, after all, Napoleon VII would have to dump the collection of his ancestors when he bought a piece of jewelry worth only three or five billion dollars, and if he had money, he would never do so.

While speaking, Zhang Tianyuan took the gift he brought from Xu Yue, personally handed it to Napoleon VII and said with a smile: "Mr. Napoleon, I know that you are interested in jewelry, this is a little bit of my heart, it is not very valuable, it is only a million euros, I am too anxious, and I have not prepared any valuable gifts, I hope you can forgive me." ”

Napoleon VII's hands were trembling, more than a million euros, others said to send it, compared to himself, it was too embarrassing.

The butler Blue's eyes were even more wide, and after a while, he whispered, "Hmph, Chinese tyrants, local tyrants with no historical background, no matter how rich they are, they can't buy the status of nobles!"

His voice was very small, but Zhang Tianyuan still heard it.

Zhang Tianyuan felt that such a statement was actually ridiculous, what nobles, what families, if they declined, they would be worthless.

He also yearns for the nobles in the novel, but he yearns for those who have been able to hold power for thousands of years, or the family has always been prosperous.

It's only a few hundred years old, or it's going to decline soon, and this can also be forced?

Don't laugh to death. Such a person is not even as good as a local tyrant in his eyes, and many of the big tyrants now are educated and thoughtful intellectuals, compared to some uneducated and declining aristocrats, I don't know how much better it is.

"Mr. Zhang, you are so polite, how can I be embarrassed to accept such a valuable gift?" Napoleon VII did not mention the sale of the castle, he actually wanted to sell it in his heart, but it was difficult to say it in public, after all, this family was not his alone, although it was true that he inherited this castle, but this family was too complicated, and many things had to be discussed by the whole family.

"Hey, what are these words, you and I are friends, if you really think the gift is valuable, then take a few more good things out, you know, I like antiques the most." "The reason why Zhang Tianyuan brought such a valuable gift was actually to get as many good things as possible from Napoleon VII, and now he simply brought it up directly in a joking way.

"Okay, well, definitely, definitely, since I have invited Mr. Zhang to come, I will naturally come up with the best things for you to choose. "To be honest, Napoleon VII originally planned not to take out the family heirlooms, but seeing Zhang Tianyuan so generous, he was tempted, the castle may not be sold for the time being, because it is too obvious, but some collections can be sold unconsciously, anyway, there are many things that only he knows.

He keeps those things, and he won't appreciate them, which is completely equivalent to a pearl secretly cast, meaningless, it's better to sell them to people who know how to appreciate and can afford to maintain them, isn't this a good thing?

Under the leadership of the housekeeper Blue and the two maids, Zhang Tianyuan and Napoleon VII walked side by side, Liu Mengxun followed behind, walking with the blue phoenix, and finally the snake Lin and Xu Yue, Xu Yue and the blue phoenix, who talk a lot on weekdays, didn't speak today, because they were going to be shocked by the castle.

Entering the castle, walking along the red carpet for about five or six minutes, you can see the spacious and luxurious banquet hall, in the banquet hall, Genoa's finely carved chandeliers, although they are not candles, but bulbs, do not seem to have the taste of an ancient castle, but they are more aspect, but also more environmentally friendly, plus these lamps are carefully designed, and with the classical furniture in the banquet hall, it will not feel discordant at all.

On the walls of the banquet hall, there are some very well-framed oil paintings, among which there are paintings of Monet, Leonardo da Vinci, Picasso and other celebrities, but I don't know if it's true, Zhang Tianyuan didn't use the word appreciation trick to see it, because there is no need to appreciate it according to his eye, and he feels that these things are still fakes.
