Chapter 5: First Arrival in the Capital
Tokyo Bianliang, there are four rivers that cross the city. The one that passed through the southern city wall was called: "Cai River". But don't get me wrong, this "Cai" doesn't refer to Cai Jing. It is because the water of this river comes from Chen and Cai, hence the name. The river enters the city from the Dailou Gate in the southwest of the city, and after twisting and turning around the city, it flows out of the capital from the Chenzhou Gate in the southeast of the city.
There are thirteen bridges on the Cai River, in the Chenzhou Gate is the Guanqiao, from the north number is the Xuantai Bridge, the Yunqi Bridge, the Hengqiaozi, the Gaoqiao, the West Baokangmen Bridge, the Longjin Bridge, and then the New Bridge, the Taiping Bridge, the Wheat, the First Bridge, the Yinan Bridge and the Sili Bridge outside the Dailou Gate.
However, Su Yi and his party did not need to walk so many bridges, they entered the city from Dailoumen, went down the river, and arrived at Taiping Bridge. Gao Yu was favored, and the entire Taiping Bridge was rewarded to him by the officials, and Gao Yu's official position was called "the commander of the palace", so the people of the capital also called it "the house in front of the palace".
From the size of the mansion, you can know how much the current official family favors Gao Yu. Although the vicinity of this Taiping Bridge is not the best location in Tokyo, it is also a place that extends in all directions next to the Cai River, and it is also in the middle and upper range. gave such a large piece of land to Gao Yu, and he was envious of others.
The carriage walked slowly on the street, and the purpose was the courtyard wall that grew to the edge, and the fat man looked at it with drooling, and his mouth was slurking: "Childe, how else to say that the people in our small place have never seen the world, you see, you see, this is called a house, this is the style." People say that my father is 'Qian Bancheng', but he has never seen the world. Look at this house...... My God, if my house is 'half a city', this is 'the whole city', not 'two cities'! ”
"What kind of adjective is this......"
Su Yi frowned, dragged the fat man, and asked him to retract the head that poked out. Fortunately, there are no big trucks in these years, otherwise you will have your head cut off with such a probe.
Suddenly, the carriage turned a corner and came to a gate. The two stone lions at the door, which were obviously larger than the stone lions Su Yi had seen in his previous life, stared at the pedestrians and carriages on the street with fist-sized eyes.
Only then did Su Yi understand that the road he had just walked was the side of the mansion, which was equivalent to going around half a circle before he reached the gate.
Qian Fat Man couldn't wait to jump out of the car, and looked in front of the stone lion with a look like he had never seen the world. Su Yi didn't have much interest in this thing, yawned, and waited for Lu Qian to lift the curtain before he stretched out his hand and got out of the car with Lu Qian's arm, with no expression on his face. Lu Qian kept glancing at Su Yi with his spare eyes, and when he saw his calm demeanor, he couldn't help but admire him in his heart.
With a creak, the middle door opened, and the subordinates came out, which surprised Su Yi a little, compared to this big mansion, the subordinates seemed to be slightly less, only a dozen people. But he thought about it, maybe Gao Yu felt that he didn't need to be mobilized to attract the attention of others, so he deliberately did so.
Su Yi smiled, didn't say anything, greeted the fat man, and walked towards the door under the leadership of Lu Qian. The subordinates bowed down and saluted, and their mouths were called the yain. Su Yi nodded, and the fat man next to him had already opened up: "Yanai brought a greeting gift to everyone, and those who saluted will be rewarded." I saw that there were no carriages behind, all of them were Suzhou and Hangzhou specialties, and they couldn't be bought in the capital. I'll settle it down later, and everyone will come looking for me! My name is Qian Heng, and I am your best friend in the ya, just call me Qian Gongzi! ”
When they heard that there was a reward, the people all smiled, and without any orders, they came up to help carry the things on the carriage.
There was a small servant waiting in the door, half-bent, leading everyone in. All the way in, the scenery gradually unfolds, rockeries and flat grass, flowers and branches shallow water, strange stones are stacked, the artistic conception is long, and it does not look like a general's mansion at all. It's just that what makes Su Yi strange is that after walking for so long, he hasn't seen a single person, and such a big mansion seems to be empty.
After walking for hundreds of meters, before reaching the inner courtyard, Su Yi couldn't help but agree with Qian Fatzi's statement, this house is indeed big enough. Compared with Jiahe's mansion, I don't know how many times bigger. Owning such a large mansion in Kyoto, where every inch of land is at a premium, is obviously not something that money alone can do. Su Yi couldn't help but think of the money he had made in business in the past three years, he thought it was a lot, but in a place like Bianliang, Tokyo, where every inch of land is valuable, I'm afraid it is still far from enough!
If you are an ordinary ordinary person, at this time when you first enter the mansion and high door, you will always be a little flustered and restrained, just like the fat man at this time, the more you go inside, the more stiff the expression on his face becomes, and when he encounters the beautiful scenery of strange stones, he does not dare to look at it like when he is at the door, for fear that he will not be able to see it at the right glance, and he will not be able to afford to see the scenery.
But Su Yi is not an ordinary person, he has been a human being in two lives, and he has experienced such an unbelievable thing, whether it is the memory of the previous life or the encounter in this life, there is a sense of unreality for Su Yi. He sometimes even thinks that maybe when he wakes up, he's back in 2020. What is happening now is just a dream.
Since it's a dream, why restrain yourself? Yu Yu is also a life, and freedom is also a life, why not let yourself live happily and comfortably? What's more, he didn't have the idea of falling in love with Gao Yu's father, he didn't want anything if he didn't want to, and he didn't care what others thought of him.
So he walked all the way, watched all the way, leisurely, as if he had come here to travel, looking extremely casual and uninhibited.
Before arriving at the inner courtyard, Lu Qian reminded in a low voice: "Yanei, I can't go in here, you can go in by yourself." After thinking about it, he couldn't help but remind: "Yanei, it seems that the palace marshal should not be in the mansion, otherwise he will definitely come to greet you." Madame......" Lu Qian suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Madame is the wife and sister of Xiao Wangdu Taiwei, but it is not easy to get along." Yanai returned home, she didn't come to greet her, I'm afraid ......"
Lu Qian didn't say anything further, but the meaning had already been clearly expressed.
Su Yi didn't expect Lu Qian to say these words, he was a little surprised, but he also accepted his kindness and said, "Thank you for reminding me, it's all a family, it's okay." ”
When Lu Qian heard him say this, he didn't say anything anymore, made a salute, and took the fat man with the money and followed the little guy to the side courtyard to settle down.
The little guy who led the way was replaced by a maid ring, and finally saw another subordinate.
Su Yi followed the maid and entered the backyard. The maid led Su Yi to the middle hall, and he was just about to step into the hall, but the maid stopped him and whispered with a little uneasiness: "Ya...... Childe, please wait in the side hall. After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes tightly, as if he was afraid of being beaten.
Is it really a vulgar plot?
Su Yi smiled, moved two steps, and stepped into the side hall to sit down.
