Chapter 220: Produced by the King of Chu, it must be a high-quality product
Just when Li Wan and Li Yuan and his entourage visited Hanyuan Palace, a group of female boxers also entered from Yanzheng Gate and went to the harem.
Empress Changsun and other concubines of Li Shimin accompanied the concubine of Chu State, that is, the former Wan Guifei, Li Zhiyun's biological mother, and visited the Penglai Hall like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden.
After Li Yuan's original partner died, there was no queen in the palace, and the harem affairs were handled by Wan Guifei, she was the de facto queen, and Li Shimin canonized her as the concubine of Chu after he ascended the throne, but she had completely faded out of everyone's field of vision, even if it was Li Kuan, she was rarely seen.
"Kuan'er is really thinking about Zhou Xiang, this person-high glass mirror is really a rare good thing for a woman."
Empress Changsun supported the concubine of Chu and walked in the Penglai Palace.
"Yes, Concubine Niangniang, this King of Chu is really filial, the Daming Palace is built so magnificently, it is really surprising."
Wei Guifei stood behind Empress Eldest Sun and couldn't help but let out a surprised sound.
"Yes, I still remember when Kuan'er gave me a mirror for the first time, it was only the size of a palm, but I was already surprised, how long has it been now, and I actually have a full-length mirror."
"Concubine Niangniang, Queen Niangniang, this Penglai Hall has a total of three floors, and it is the tallest building in the harem; Standing on the balcony on the third floor, the view is the best, with a panoramic view of Taiye Pond and the flower garden next to it. ”
There was no female boxing in the Chu Palace, so Li Kuan had no choice but to send his personal maid Qing'er as a tour guide.
Anyway, Qing'er follows her all day long, and she is already very familiar with the situation in Daming Palace; Especially some things in the harem, I really can't find someone more suitable than her to introduce.
"This Penglai Hall actually has three floors?" No wonder it looked so tall when I came in.
In this life, the concubine of Chu State can be regarded as accustomed to seeing big scenes.
Her great-grandfather is the Southern Qi Dynasty Xu Yan Erzhou Thorn History, her grandfather is the Liang Dynasty's Guangzhou Thorn History, and her father is the Sui Dynasty's Lizhou Thorn History.
After marrying Li Yuan, she was also clothed and fed, and gave birth to a son and a daughter, but unfortunately Li Zhiyun died early.
"Yes, this is what the prince specially proposed to Master Yan, otherwise all the buildings in the palace will be one-story."
Speaking of Li Kuan, Qing'er couldn't help but raise her head.
And Li Kuan, as Li Zhiyun's stepson, can be regarded as the only grandson of the concubine of Chu State, Qing'er is his personal maid, although her identity is 108,000 miles different from the ladies present, but the concubine likes her very much.
"Okay, then let's go upstairs and have a look."
A kind smile appeared on the face of the concubine of the Chu State.
In this year, there is naturally no elevator, but the stairs of Penglai Hall are built more spacious, and it is not so tiring to take a walk occasionally.
The group soon went up to the third floor, Qing'er opened the curtain on the balcony, and a unique scene appeared in front of everyone.
In the Taiye Pond, Li Kuan suggested planting some lotuses, putting a few pleasure boats, and raising a few cranes, but it was not yet time to finish, there was only a simple pool.
However, even so, it is already extraordinary.
Empress Changsun: "Concubine Niangniang, this Taiye Pool is wider than the southeast, northwest, and sea in the Taiji Palace combined." ”
Everyone lined up, leaning on the guardrail, and the scenery of Taiye Pool was unobstructed.
"Qing'er, there is a large open space next to the Taiye Pool, you just mentioned the flower garden, could it be that?"
Wei Guifeiyu pointed diagonally forward and asked curiously.
"Guifei Niangniang, as you said, there will be all kinds of flowers planted there in the spring of the next year, and when the flowers bloom, standing here in the Penglai Palace, or taking a boat in the Taiye Pond, it must be very chic.
The prince also said that in the second phase, a pavilion will be built on the north side of the Taiye Pond, and in the summer, while enjoying the lotus flowers blooming in the Taiye Pond and the various flowers in the flower garden in the distance, it will definitely make people's mood better. ”
Hearing Qing'er say this, whether it was Empress Eldest Sun, Concubine Wei, or Concubine Yin, Concubine De and others next to her, they all showed a rare expression of envy.
Although they are relatively favored in Li Shimin's harem, the overall environment of Taiji Palace is like that, everyone's palace ......
I'm afraid of comparison!
Compared with Penglai Palace, those palaces ......
It's not for people to live in.
Summers are hot and humid, and winters are cold.
It is no wonder that after Li Zhi ascended the throne in history, he quickly let people build the Daming Palace, which had been suspended for more than ten years, within ten months with the power of the whole country.
"Kuan'er's wishes, I have received them. Zhiyun Spring has knowledge, and he will also feel gratified. ”
The concubine of Chu couldn't help but think of her son, and her face turned pale, but she quickly adjusted.
"Qing'er, you can take us to see what else is special in Penglai Palace."
"Concubine Niangniang, there really is. Let me take you to visit the restrooms of Penglai Temple. ”
Qing'er saw that everyone was very satisfied with their prince's masterpiece, and her face was about to smile.
"Bathroom? Just wash your hands, do you need to build a special room? ”
"No, this bathroom, actually...... You'll find out in a moment. ”
Qing'er felt that it was a bit indecent to say that the bathroom was actually used for going to the toilet in front of so many nobles, so she simply sold it.
As Li Kuan's personal maid, it is not the first time she has seen the concubine of Chu State, so she is not particularly restrained.
There is a toilet on each floor of Penglai Palace, so everyone just turned around and went into the balcony, and after a while, they followed Qing'er to the door of the bathroom.
Penglai Hall is the most magnificent building in the harem, and the toilet is naturally not the kind of small cubicle of two or three square meters that is common in later generations, but occupies a corner of the palace, and there are even dressers and dressing rooms in it.
"Concubine Niangniang, this bathroom, the most special thing is this flushing toilet, in order to allow the nobles to use it, the craftsmen of the palace have spent a lot of thought, and the prince even personally guided the improvement of the production process in the workshop."
"Flushing the toilet?" The concubine of Chu frowned, "Could it be that it is used for ......"
"Well, that's right. With it, it is very convenient whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, windy or rainy. There is even a bath in the bathroom on the first floor, which is very convenient. ”
The toilet was the first thing Li Kuan thought of when he built the bathroom.
If it weren't for the fact that the paper was too valuable, it would be easy to be criticized for wiping his butt with paper, and Li Kuan even wanted to get the paper out now.
"Kuan'er has a heart, when you let him have time, you will come to talk to my old woman more, I haven't seen him for a while."
Whether it was the concubine of Chu or the queen of the eldest grandson, they all felt Li Kuan's hard work in the construction of Daming Palace.
The king of Chu is really a filial person.
