Chapter 700: Do It Yourself
The yard is not big, a total of only two in, from the small courtyard door in, is five bluestone steps, and then it is a square patio courtyard, the yard is paved with square bricks, over time, the original smooth green brick ground, has been potholes, standing in the center of the courtyard, on the left hand side is a row of blue brick wings, the original mottled window, now the paint is renewed, the window paper has also been newly pasted, just in front of the window, planted a few trees, but can not be named for a while, just the branches are mixed, think about it has been some years.
On the right-hand side is a row of identical wings, but in front of the window is planted a row of bamboos transplanted from Sichuan, which shades the row of windows and blocks another piece of sky.
In the middle of the courtyard to the right, under an old locust tree, there is a circle of stone tables and chairs, thinking that in the summer, the owner has not been less in this green shade to entertain friends and fellow friends, the stone tables and chairs have been polished smooth and shiny.
Fifty steps to the north along the square courtyard, there is a stone staircase, along the steps is a hall with a cloister, push open the hall door, a spacious hall is revealed in front of everyone, the main hall hangs pine, bamboo and plum orchid, the two hall couplets seem to be also from the hands of full learning, under the calligraphy and painting, a case, there is a bottle of gall hat box on it, there is a Taishi chair on the left and right, and the cushion is delicate.
Along these two chairs, there are also two rows of significantly smaller chairs, each separated by a small number, where the teacups and fruits are placed for the visitors.
On the left and right of this hall, there is a suite, which is supposed to be a resting place for the master's family, or a study.
Out of the hall, rotate left and right, pass through a door, but the eyes are bright, the backyard is a world, the gallery is connected, the small Tan swims fish, the flowers and sparse trees, and the staggered falls. There is also a cloister arch in a calm and orderly manner, which is the owner's living place.
The whole courtyard is not luxurious, but it exudes a bookish atmosphere everywhere, which makes people walk into it, not feeling narrow and stuffy, but making people feel relaxed and relaxed, and feel a kind of stability.
It's just that now, the atmosphere is disturbed by the loud voices of the constant quarrels and quarrels coming from the hall, but the scenery is devoid of elegance.
"How?" Lu Shi smiled and asked the bird-like Chunlan beside him. "This will be our home from now on." Looking at the lover around him, looking at this small, bookish and elegant courtyard, Lu Shi was infinitely satisfied with Chunlan.
Chunlan blushed and said with happiness on her face: "The fourth brother is optimistic about what I like the most." But-" Chunlan, who was upset by the shouting from the front, couldn't help frowning and muttering: It's just that if it weren't for those guys in front, I would be really satisfied. ”
When Lu Shi heard this, he shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.
There is no way, wherever you go, where you will become a natural army, the conference center of the base, from the thatched house on Woniu Mountain, to the cave in Huluyu, and then to this small courtyard in Xi'an City, which is quite secluded.
In the first battle of Weinan, the results of the battle have greatly exceeded the expectations of the Lu Shi brothers. After this war, Shaanxi all fell into the hands of the invasion army, and the original Huluyu could no longer bear the heavy responsibility of the entire Shaanxi center, so the command system of the invasion army and the base area was relocated to the thousand-year-old imperial capital, and Xi'an, the heart of Shaanxi, came.
Originally, according to the meaning of Chen Ce, Zhao Zi and other old gentlemen, it was natural for the Chuang Wangfu to be located in the Qin Wangfu, which had been repaired and expanded for hundreds of years, and was already magnificent.
However, when Lu Shi came, he only visited it as a tourist, and then chose the courtyard that Erlang chose for the original Xi'an canonical history.
It's not that Lu Shi is domineering and preempting people, but that this classic historian is loyal to the dynasty, and when the army is in the city, he takes his family and follows the King of Qin to Beijing, so this place naturally becomes an ownerless courtyard. Breaking into the city, appeasing the surrendered officials, gentry and soldiers, and suppressing the lawlessness of looting while the fire was fired, this small courtyard was completely preserved, and was photographed by a pure Erlang, but in the end it was taken away by Lu Shi's uncle.
And now these brothers are still gathered here, which is also a habit and a reason.
In fact, as the real government office of the base area, it was located in the original Xi'an Governor's Yamen, where the facilities are much more complete than here, but the habits developed by the old brothers cannot be changed, everyone gets up early in the morning, or is willing to run to Lu Shi, talk about government affairs without restraint, but it solves Lu Shi's troubles, but it can't make him clean. It was a big violation of his original intention of choosing this place.
"Little San, you go and call the prefect of Xi'an to come over again." A loud voice rang out, making the two Lu Shi, who were immersed in happiness, return to reality and glance at each other, except for a bitter smile or a bitter smile.
There is no need to guess, this loud voice is the star of the sky, their great commander.
But this voice also reminded the two of them that Lu Shi and Chunlan both crossed the corner gate and walked back, there are still a lot of things, and it is really not the time for children to grow up.
Passing through the corner gate, I saw San'er muttering inside: "Don't you have a herald yourself, why do you want me to run around?" ”
"You're still stubborn, can't I command you? I'll beat you boy. Immediately, the roar of the stars rang out in the hall.
"I'm not your herald, I'm the captain of the student corps." San'er twisted his neck and resisted at that time, "You beat me, I will pick your cavalry team with my subordinates in a while." ”
"Yo he, you're a little kid, and you still want to pick my cavalry team? What a big breath oh, haha, okay, afternoon, just afternoon, then I'll wait. ”
As soon as Tianxing's voice fell, there was a burst of laughter in the hall, yes, it was really unbearable, a dignified commander, and a child, this is really not like words.
"Why, the royal magistrate is not coming?" Lu Shi smiled and followed San'er in and asked San'er beside him.
As soon as they saw Lu Shichunlan and the others come in, all the people in the room stood up together and greeted him one after another, but they lost the casualness in the Huluyu cave.
Lu Shi waved his hand as he walked and asked everyone to sit casually, and then after the third uncle and three aunts who sat opposite Chunlan, and a group of old men and old ladies behind their second elders, they walked to the top of the two rows of Taishi chairs, and sat casually, Chunlan moved an embroidery pier and sat behind Lu Shi.
Looking at the closeness of this pair of jade people, those old men and old ladies were already smiling and unable to see their eyes.
Seeing that Lu Shi was seated, San'er reported to Lu Shiyu: "The king's administrative officer said that the main thing should be discussed in the main hall, and the family talks about family affairs, and the family affairs are naturally discussed by King Chuang and his brothers, and as the political official of the base area, he does not want to participate and is inconvenient." ”
Lu Shi could only smile bitterly again, this Wang administrative official, who was originally the prefect of Xi'an, broke into the city, and when the army was in the city, he organized the personnel to open the city and surrender, and negotiated with Lu Shi and others about the treatment of the Qin Wang family to stay.
In the negotiations, Lu Shi found that he was indeed a talent, but there were too many high-ranking officials in Xi'an, and there was no place for him at all, so, out of cherishing talents, at the same time, in the base, including himself, there was no experience in managing this Nuoda city, and he could only rely on him, and Lu Shi also wanted to give an example to other places that had just surrendered, and after examining the fact that he did not have any bad deeds, he was appointed to do the Xi'an government affairs, which is equivalent to the Xi'an prefect, and completely delegated power to him, Let him govern this Xi'an city with the cooperation of the deputy assigned to him in the base area.
And this person is indeed a talent, and he has many years of experience in governing Xi'an, and in just a short period of time, almost all of them are familiar with the management methods of the base area, and the governance of Xi'an is in good order, so that Lu Shi and others are more fortunate while being impressed.
Therefore, Chen Ce proposed that all the students of the Huluyu Government Affairs Crash Course should also be relocated here, first, to observe and learn nearby, and secondly, to simply let the Wang Governor's Mansion come to pass on the help, so that the crash course can avoid detours and quickly deliver talents for the management of the base area.
However, this Wang Governor's Mansion, the current Wang administrative officer, strictly abides by his duties, puts himself in a correct position, and knows his origin, so he is cautious everywhere, and does not participate in anything except government affairs at all, which reassures Mr. Zhao Zili and others.
Now, the brothers from the original base area came to Lu Shi to talk about the government affairs of the base area, so no matter how Guo Tianxing urged him to come, he would not come anyway.
In fact, Shaanxi Xinde, there are many wars, everything is complicated, so that everyone is too busy to touch the sun at both ends, but in the eyes of the people and brothers in all the base areas, those are not big things, the real big thing, that is, the marriage of King Lu Shi and Chunlan.
When Lu Shi last celebrated the New Year, he expressed his admiration for Chunlan with the song "Kissing Little Sister", even if the marriage of these two people was decided, under the Zhang Luo of a group of mothers-in-law and grandfathers, everyone set a wedding date for him, but the sky did not fulfill people's wishes, and the war in the base area made their wedding date postponed again and again, even this time.
In fact, according to Lu Shi's meaning, it is not that there is no time to get married, it is just a formality, everyone gets together, takes out some salary, puts a few tables of wine and dinner, and salutes the third uncle and three aunts.
But it didn't work, as soon as his proposal was said, it was immediately opposed by everyone, and later a grandmother's petition group appeared.
Yes, in their eyes and hearts, King Chuang Lu Shi is their heaven and their emperor. The emperor's wedding, how can he be so hasty and in a hurry? That's something that is absolutely intolerable, so, look, that's it, in one day, as long as a person has no government affairs for a while, he will immediately pull a few brothers and come to Lu Shi, and talk bitterly with him, and the third aunt is even more chattering day long, which really makes Lu Shi cry and laugh. My own marriage, why don't you say it yourself? Especially if it drags on like this, there will be no more changes, and once again let his dream of marrying Chunlan be shattered, which makes Lu Shi afraid, so, without further ado, he is not too old, so hurry up and do it yourself.
So, Lu Shi decided to convene a meeting of all the old brothers in the base area, as well as representatives from all walks of life, and he completely ran himself.
