The winter is deepening, the west wind is fierce, and the cold is long and long.

When Xiuyu finished reading out the edict of the Empress Dowager Dou as the chief manager of Changle Palace, he walked to Yuan Zhao, who was in a daze, and patted him on the shoulder, feeling a little emotional.

"Boy, the ancestor is really unkind to you. Thank you! ”

Yuan Zhao hurriedly saluted and thanked him, and asked Gonggong Xiu to convey it to the Empress Dowager on his behalf, and this time his gratitude was from the bottom of his heart.

A majestic mansion is behind him, with a high gate of Zhumen, a carved gallery, and a deep courtyard, extending backwards for a few .......

This is the Hou Mansion given to Yuan Zhao in the name of Empress Dowager Dou. And the red sandalwood plaque on the "Changle Hou Mansion" a few big characters, vigorous and dignified, momentum like pine, but it is today's royal pen handwriting.

Nearly 100 servants and maids were already lined up on both sides of the inner courtyard, waiting to meet the new master. They were all hand-picked by Xiuyu, and everyone was surprised or happy or worried or confused, and some were quietly talking about it, talking about the rumors about the little marquis from hearsay. Some bowed their heads and were silent, each with their own concerns.

At this moment, a group of people walked up the stairs from outside the gate of the mansion and gradually came. Dressed in formal clothes, the formidable princess Xiuyu walked in front, surrounded by palace guards. A figure much shorter than them followed, looking around with curiosity on his face as he walked.

The newly painted door of the mansion was illuminated by the sun, there was a faint halo, and for a while it was not clear to see the appearance of the person, hundreds of pairs of eyes gathered together, and the face of the owner of the Changle Hou Mansion who had not yet grown up was a little shy.

This is the first time that Ling Shuang and Ling Xue have seen Yuan Zhao. For many years after that, this scene of a slightly cold winter day was like the first time I saw it in my life, and I will never forget it.

Ling Shuang squinted a pair of good-looking eyes, turned her head to look at her sister Ling Xue, and saw her expression mischievous and curious. turned to stare at that figure quietly, that must be the Changle Hou that his sister was going to serve, right? Although it has long been known that the new owner is not very old, he ...... He's too small!

Ling Xue and Ling Shuang are twin sisters, and they are eighteen years old this year. Their father was once one of the secret guards around Empress Dowager Dou, but later died during an attempt to kill an assassin from a vassal state.

Empress Dowager Dou raised them in Changle Palace, and those secret guards taught them a stunt. originally thought that Changle Palace and the old ancestor were their final destination, but today, they were sent to this new mansion and have a new owner.

Thinking of the words that the ancestor had ordered when he left the palace, Ling Shuang's heart was pounding. Will his sister be the person of this little marquis in the future? However, what will he do to himself and Ling Xue?

Of course, Yuan Zhao would not know the careful thoughts of these daughters. He doesn't know how to place these people right now. In the past and present lives, most of them are like drifting lonely and living at ease. Suddenly, there were so many people to take care of, and he was a little overwhelmed. Of course, this is the thinking he brought with him from his previous life.

Seeing the old eunuch's teasing eyes, Yuan Zhao scratched his head and stood in front of this group of people.

"That...... Hehe, since from today onwards, everyone is going to live together in this yard, well, if you need anything, just say it, and those who can help will definitely help. ”

Belch? The unheard of opening remarks, everyone looked up in surprise. This...... Is this the words of a master of the marquis!

A slightly thin old man in his fifties walked out and hugged his fists: "Why did the little marquis say this!" We are all your slaves, what do you want us to do, even if you tell us, how dare you bother the marquis! ”

Father-in-law Xiu couldn't help but laugh secretly, and said in his heart that this kid still has the ability to buy people's hearts. But when he listened to it again, his expression gradually became surprised.

"Oh, no, no, don't get me wrong, don't think I'm saying polite things. Everyone comes from different places, and since they are destined to get together, they will even get along day and night in the days to come, sharing honor and disgrace. Then, it's a family. No matter how long or short you can stay in this mansion, as long as you enter this mansion, then ...... Let's get along! Well, that's all I want to say. ”

His expression was serious and his tone was sincere, and everyone listened to it in their ears and moved their hearts. Although most people still don't believe that a marquis will really be so good to his subordinates, if he can say these words, he must not be a bad master.

What's more, the magical sayings about this little marquis that circulated in Chang'an City before made everyone already have a good impression of him, and from this moment on, the eyes that looked at Yuan Zhao were sincere and cordial.

After a while, they dispersed, and their own stewards and others arranged to clean up and settle the staff, so there is no need to go into details.

The old eunuch patted Yuan Zhao's back, with a look of appreciation and relief on his face, and without saying anything superfluous, he turned around and took people back to his life.

Later, a large number of celebrators had already heard the news. The people of Fan Xuelou, Sima and his wife, Xu Le, together with a few of their friends and the stewards of their respective families, the master father Yan, Wei Qing and Gongsun Ao, and Yao Shang of the Chang'an Mansion brought them this time together with the chief catcher Yun Meng.

Yuan Zhao greeted him with a smile in the courtyard, and at the end of the crowd, a fat businessman flashed out and hugged him in surprise, it turned out to be Nie Yi, who had just returned from Yandi in Northern Xinjiang.

Everyone congratulated one after another, and looked at the scale of the scenery of the Changle Marquis Mansion everywhere, and couldn't help but admire. The momentum of the land of the royal gift is really different, Yuan Zhao is at a young age, and he is already in the heart of the emperor, and the future is unlimited!

Yuan Zhao didn't really care about this, it was just a place to live. He would rather live in the Van Xue Building. However, since he has promised many things to the Son of Heaven, he will spare his energy to do it in the future and meet people at many levels, and it is still necessary to have his own mansion for convenience.

And these people who came today are slowly getting to know each other in this world with his walking footsteps, and it can also be said that they are the preliminary team that he will rely on to start doing something.

Wei Qing quietly pulled him aside, and whispered that Liu Ju and Su Xi had to come, but Mrs. Wei was afraid of too many people and inconvenience, so she didn't let them come. However, I will definitely come back later. Also, this is what Mrs. Jean brought to you, about Suxi, thank you enough! After speaking, he took out a cloth bag from his arms and stuffed it to him.

Wei Qing has been extra careful since he was framed last time and almost died. After the emperor came back from Shanglin Yuan that time, he immediately added him the title of the head of the guards of the Jianzhang Palace, although he obeyed the instructions of the Empress Dowager Dou and did not vigorously pursue it, but it can be regarded as an expression of his attitude towards that matter.

Mrs. Wei is even more grateful to Yuan Zhao! All of his children have benefited from him, and it is difficult to repay this feeling, so I can only keep it in mind. Therefore, this time she entrusted her brother to bring a pair of jade to Yuan Zhao to celebrate it.

At that moment, everyone gathered together, and they were all happy for Yuan Zhao. I don't talk about anything else today, just to celebrate.

Seeing that the mansion had just been settled, nothing had been prepared, and the money shopkeeper Hou Wu and the others had already gone to the restaurant to arrange everything, and a few good tables were sent to the Changle Hou Mansion, but the wine was newly distilled by Zhuo Wenjun according to Yuan Zhao's method recently, and it happened to be brought, and his own people would taste it first.

On the west side of the painting building, in the middle of the hall, several cases are lined up, cloth dishes and wine, and the atmosphere is warm. After a few rounds of drinking, they were divided into several factions, each fighting for itself!

Master Father Yan, Sima Xiangru, Xu Le, Yan An, Mei Gao, Yan Congqi, Zhongjun and several others talked with Yao Shanggao, full of wit, and fought equally. They are all well-educated people, and they are all talented people, so when the liquor enters the throat and the blocks are difficult to pour, they can't help but be full of pride, and they are very open for a while.

On the other side, Wei Qing, Gongsun Ao, Zhao Yuan, Song Jiu, and Yun Meng talked about it, telling some anecdotes about the rivers and lakes, martial arts skills, learning from each other, and bursts of laughter came from time to time.

Nie Yi, a big businessman in the north, talked with the shopkeeper Qian, Hou Wu, and the stewards of the Zhuo family in Shuzhong and the Xu family in Sichuan, talking about some secret affairs between the north and the south in the world, discussing it, each with his own experience, smiling and toasting.

Nie Yi's heart was especially shaken, he had only known Yuan Zhao for a few months, and he was just a trip back and forth to the north, the child who called him Uncle Nie shyly at the beginning, is now the Changle Marquis of the Han Dynasty! These connections have also been accumulated.

Although he still doesn't know the details of everyone here, he has already seen that these people are either heroic, or restrained, or have a splendid chest, or are wise and foolish...... None of them are mediocre!

Little Hou Ye is not simple! At a young age, the art of recognizing people is already so good, and this kind of vision alone has already amazed Nie Yi.

And Mrs. Su and Zhuo Wenjun took a few children to talk about what happened recently on another case. Especially on the topic of Yuan Zhao, it gradually said that he was favored by the two palaces and was weakly crowned as a marquis, which was really a rare opportunity in the world.

Lingzhi, Xiaoice, Little Fatty, and Cui Hong flashed something called reverence in their eyes, looking at Yuan Zhao who was close at hand, they felt as if he was shrouded in a layer of light and became a little strange.

Yuan Zhao couldn't stand this kind of look, and couldn't help but pat the little fat man next to him, and scolded with a smile: "Hey, little fat man, I said what's wrong with you?" I didn't know each other after a few days! Forgot how we fought when we were together? ”

The little fat man laughed.

"Brother Yuan, that was before, your identity is different now, and you will ...... in the future It's going to get better and better, right? It's not good to mess with you like before. ”

Lingzhi, Xiaoice, and Cui Hong also stopped eating in their hands, and looked at him with different moods. Especially Su Lingzhi, the worry and confusion in his heart for a long time appeared in his eyebrows.

Time passes, the years go by, that year, who will take the encounter as cause and effect? Outside the green suburbs, beside the road, it is your gentle eyebrows and eyes, and ...... clear face!

Yuan Zhao sighed in his heart, smiled, and lowered his voice: "How come, you ...... It is the first person who gave me warmth after I came to this world, Yuan Zhao will not dare to forget it in his lifetime. ”

Then, pick up the glass of wine in front of you and drink it down.

Su Hongyun had already wet his eyes, and he was busy pretending to smile to cover up the past, his hand caressed Yuan Zhao's back, and whispered with a smile: "This kid, it's good, what kind of stupid thing are you talking about!" Everyone knows what you want. ”

The result of the sensationalism was that Yuan Zhao drank more than a dozen glasses of wine, but the children were excited. Because Yuan Zhao agreed to them, in the spacious Changle Marquis Mansion, they each left an exclusive courtyard for each of them, and they could come and live here at any time.

The wine on the case is warm, the years are shallow, the twilight is vast, the lights are dim, good friends and best friends, and they will be with you from now on! Yuan Zhao's gaze swept over the faces in the seat, through the night, looking at the deep starry sky, dreams and ambitions, let's set sail from tonight!

The cause and effect of the red dust crossing, the light of the second, Chang'an tens of millions of households.

There were countless prides in that year, and the majestic history recalls the beginning.

The weak crown is the marquis, the hero is planning the office, and he has made a sigh in the wind.

The mountains and rivers shine at night, the blueprint is splendid, and the blue blood is not negative.

At that time, I saw that the courtyard laurel tree, the spring and autumn of the family and the country, only the fragrance was the same!
