Chapter 03: Home
Line after line, from the end of summer to the beginning of autumn, finally returned to the group, and finally returned to the village without a trace.
Ten zhang, five zhang and one zhang.
The huge mountain gate was close at hand, that was the span between the inside and the outside, that was the beginning of home, the end of the journey, a smile slowly spread, finally arrived home, gently loosened the reins, the horses moved slowly, and also with a little like to snort.
The next moment, the middle gate opened little by little, just like the dawn of dawn spread little by little, and at the moment when the gate was fully opened, eighteen white-clothed swordsmen walked down from the nine steps, lined up on both sides, as tall as pines and cypresses, but their eyes showed a look of joy.
"Greetings to my lord—"
Cheering in unison, eighteen steel-like men knelt on one knee and bowed down, just to welcome the return of the young man, just to show respect for the strong, just to welcome the owner of Traceless Village!
At this moment, the original smile gradually converged, and the body, which was originally as tall as a pine and cypress, suddenly stood straight at this moment.
This is the majesty of a leader.
Unconsciously, Yan Hong, Wei Zhuang and the others opened half of their bodies and took the lead.
Su Jin, leading a group of door masters and deacons, was already saluting in unison.
"See the lord!"
"The hostesses are already waiting in the main hall, please come in." Su Jin said respectfully.
"Good!" Yan Hong said.
Immediately, Yan Hong entered with the hand of the red lotus, followed by Wei Zhuang and the purple girl, the ink crow again, and the jade and the white phoenix were the last.
As a home carefully built by Yanhong, Wuxian Village can be described as ingenious, rigorous and exquisite, with a regular architectural layout, excellent craftsmanship and staggered pavilions, which fully embodies the glorious and wealthy style of the royal family and the charm of the folk elegance. The village consists of two parts: a mansion and a garden. It is about 330 meters long from north to south, more than 18 meters wide from east to west, and covers an area of about 61,120 square meters, of which the mansion covers an area of 32,260 square meters and the garden covers an area of 28,860 square meters.
The mansion building is divided into three roads: east, middle and west, and each road is composed of multi-entry quadrangle courtyards running through a strict central axis from south to north. The main buildings in the middle road are the Yin'an Hall and the Jiale Hall, and the roof of the hall is made of green glazed tiles, which shows the majesty of the middle road and is also the embodiment of the royal status.
The main house in the front yard of the East Road is called Duofuxuan, and there is a vine in front of the hall that has grown for more than 200 years. It is still growing very well, and it is extremely rare in the world.
The main house of the rear courtyard on the east road is called "Zichen Palace", which was originally customized as the living place of Yanhong and Yue'er. The courtyard on the West Road is relatively small and exquisite, and the main buildings are [Lingyun Pavilion] and [Jingxin Zhai].
The masterpiece is the high-style meditation fast, there are exquisitely carved Nanmu partitions in the hall, for Yan Hong to imitate the style of Ningshou Palace in the Forbidden City, there is a two-storey back cover building in the deepest part of the mansion, the east and west are 156 meters long, and the back wall has a total of 88 windows. There are 108 rooms inside, commonly known as "99 and a half rooms".
The name of the garden is "Langrun Garden or Cui Jin Garden", commonly known as "Jincui Garden", wandering in the garden is like walking between the mountains and rivers. Echoes the mansion. The garden is also divided into three roads: east, middle and west.
The middle road takes a white marble arched stone gate in Western architectural style as the entrance, and takes the stele of the word "Fu" written by Yan Hong as the center, there are Dule Peak, Bat Pond in front, and there are Green Sky Xiaoyin and Bat Hall in the back. The layout is evocative.
The decoration of the large theater hall on the east road is fresh and beautiful, and the purple flowers of the vine are in full bloom, making people feel like watching the play under the vine and rose.
The five scenes of Ming Dao Zhai at the south end of the theater building and the winding path through the secluded, the green Yue, the incense and the drunken moon, and the Liubei Pavilion constitute the garden in the garden, and the ancient trees in the garden are towering to the sky. Strange stones stand in a forest, surrounded by mountains and rivers, pavilions and pavilions, corridors and loops. The garden scenery under the moonlight is even more ever-changing, and there is a hole in the sky, looking for the green mountains and clear waters, winding paths and secluded platforms to tell the smoke-like past.
Further inside, there are several separate courtyards.
The people in the house call it the inner courtyard, the inner courtyard is taken over by the phantom, no man is allowed, the east of it is a [white jade capital], the heavenly palace, the white jade capital, there are twelve pavilions, five cities, the immortals for me to stroke the top, knot to receive the long life charm.
The name is taken from the famous poems of later generations, but the style is modeled after the mold of the Fei Xue Pavilion, plus some European classical charm to create, when the Traceless Village was roughly completed, Bai Yujing had not yet been completed, and originally planned to give Xie Zhiyun a relief from homesickness, but now, it is the boudoir of the Snow Girl.
Walking to the door, it is no longer a busy traffic, but a bright sea of flowers, the flowers of the four seasons are planted in it, always blooming, evergreen, and always happy.
The peony pavilion in spring, the lotus pond in summer, the chrysanthemum spectrum in autumn, and the red plum forest in winter, all of them are so tranquil.
After the hustle and bustle of the world, what the Snow Maiden wants most is quiet.
Yan Hong also followed her wish, there was no luxurious decoration, no flashy carving, just a simple and elegant small building, several exquisite palace lamps hung in the courtyard, a string of gauze curtains hung on the window edge of the third floor, and silver wind chimes jingled.
Adjacent to the northeast is Duanmu Rong, which is the closest to the Snow Girl, not so much a woman's boudoir as a medicine garden.
Although the two are independent gardens, they are interconnected, if the snow girl's house is elegant, then Duanmu Rong's house can be regarded as a simple score, it seems to be a green color, the front of the house is a medicine garden, although the north is cold, but Yan Hong has studied the greenhouse of the later generations, although it is not as high-tech as the later generations.
But with the help of mechanical techniques, pumping, lighting or something, it is not much different, and it can be regarded as a pseudo 'greenhouse' in front of it.
Even if it was so simple, it still surprised everyone with Duanmu Rong, a medicinal material, but in this way, Yan Hong was left out in the cold, and he was just busy with medicinal materials all day long, and even made a large area of medicinal fields at the foot of the mountain, Yan Hong couldn't cry or laugh with this.
The most exaggerated thing is that Duanmu Rong's wedding dress was actually entrusted to the Snow Girl to help make it.
No way, Duanmu Rong is a doctor, specializing in medical skills, you say female red?
I'm sorry, but I can barely make do with anything else, make a wedding dress? It's naïve.
The snow girl has good skills, so she naturally has to help her girlfriend carry it down.
Further northwest, separated by a courtyard wall, there is naturally a carved arch in the middle, and after the arch, it is the young priest, the big priest, and the house of the moon god, it is said that the moon god is Yan Hong's elder, and Yan Hong has no such plan.
But the moon god said that he was lonely alone, so he naturally moved into Qinfang Garden.
It is only a bridge away from the glazed pavilion where the big priest and the young priest live together, there are some flowers planted under the arch bridge, in the spring, butterflies fly, bees dance, but the young priest is the favorite.
Walk through the other arch in the innermost part of this place, and arrive at the last source of the inner courtyard, Zizhuyuan.
The name is clear at a glance, this garden is naturally dominated by purple bamboo, red lotus, red jade, and even Zhang Xu later, will move into this garden, and several sisters live together, which is also interesting.
The bamboos are all of the same thickness, the same length, like sisters born in the same year, slender, straight and handsome.
The wind blew gently through the bamboo forest, and the bamboo leaves were trembling slightly, like a slender mouth whispering.
When you walk into the green and shaded bamboo path in the hot summer afternoon, you will immediately feel a refreshing pleasure, the red dust is gone, the fatigue is gone, and the heart is a cool world.
Looking back, the two sides of the bank are really the large bamboo forest, a cluster, like an inverted phoenix tail, the long leaves in the wind "rustle" swaying, covering the bamboo forest deep winding paths, small bridges and flowing water.
Along the way, all the way is a cluster of phoenix tail bamboo, reflected in the clear stream, and the dead yellow leaves, whirling by themselves, falling on the surface of the river, quietly far away.
Suddenly, a light rain blew up, breaking the original tranquility, and the clumps of green bamboos turned into a faint green in the rain, lingering in the valley......
The rain hits the bamboo forest, and it is even more chic. (To be continued......)
