Chapter 230: White Mansion?
Today's Li Bai is probably in this situation.
He said that as soon as he left the territory of the Great Zhou, that is, the area covered by the dragon veins of Kyushu, he would be restricted by a law in the dark, and the farther away he was, the stronger the restriction became.
With his current realm, he could only go as far as an area about five hundred miles away from the Dragon Vein of Kyushu, and if he was any further, he would lose all his true essence and become a complete ordinary person.
It's as if the world there no longer responds to his call, so to speak, is ostracized.
And the strange thing is that he suspects that the lower the realm, the less the law restricts...... In other words, the weaker the person, the farther he runs.
"I'm Nima...... There is still such a setting! ”
After hearing this, Bai He was stunned on the spot, and hurriedly asked, "Does she know about the Holy Queen?" ”
"I'm afraid she already knew about it two years ago." Li Bai sighed, "Otherwise, with her current strength, one person can sweep the world, why would she be held back in the Great Zhou Kingdom?" ”
"......" Bai He suddenly fell silent. He didn't ask anyone else if they knew this, because he wanted to know that even Li Bai had to go on a trip to find out the truth, so why bother others?
The reason why the Holy Queen did not announce this news should be because she didn't want to cause unnecessary turmoil, right?
Just imagine, if you let people from other races know that Your Majesty, the strongest Holy Empress of the Great Zhou, can't take the initiative to go abroad, what will happen to you? That must be desperate to tease you!
After all, running away after pretending to be forced or something, everyone likes this trick!
"I see......" Shirakawa sighed.
At this time, he finally understood the meaning of the Holy Queen's sentence "If you don't want it, you can't do it". Winning the world, but losing to the laws of heaven and earth, what a grievance!
The stronger you are, the more aggrieved you are, and this kind of bitterness is simply no one!
At this moment, he could fully imagine how sad the Holy Queen was when she said this.
"This matter is very important, and the virtuous brother must not talk about it to outsiders." Li Bai obviously understood this truth, and said very cautiously.
"Don't worry, the eldest brother naturally knows the severity." Bai He nodded. Then after a pause, he suddenly laughed: "So in the end, don't you still have to start from the most basic in a down-to-earth manner?" As long as the people are rich and the country is strong, and the army is strong, then sweeping the world is not a matter of course? ”
"Brother Xian is reasonable, but he thinks too much for his brother!" Li Bai is also an open-minded person, he was only stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then laughed out loud.
"Now it happens that His Majesty has asked the younger brother to plant cotton, and if the eldest brother has nothing else to do, he might as well come and join in the fun. Although farming is not as subtle as cultivating the truth, it is also a lot of fun. ”
"Hahaha...... Say! Brother Wei also just wanted to see how the strange thing of cotton came about. ”
"So let's go?"
"Let's go!"
The two of them spoke, and then with a "whoosh" they reached the ground.
The so-called land is actually what Li Bai said, and Bai He himself doesn't know where the land is at all. After Li Bai flew out of the Shendu with him, he flew more than ten miles away, and suddenly said, "It's here." Then he landed on the ground.
"This is there?"
Baihe looked around and found that this place was full of green trees, beautiful mountains and rivers, and the scenery was quite good.
In front of you is a vast estate, about the size of a resort in later generations. It is surrounded by thousands of acres of fertile land, and there is a big road leading directly to Shendu, and behind, it is next to Luoshui, and the scenery is very beautiful.
Such a manor, no matter where it is placed in any era or place, is an extremely rare treasure.
And in the room opposite him, Bai He saw a brand new plaque hanging on it with the words "Baifu", and couldn't help but "Huh": "Baifu? ”
"This is the mansion that Your Majesty has given you." Li Bai said with a smile.
"What?"
Bai He looked confused, and he couldn't react for a moment: "The mansion that Your Majesty gave me?" ”
"Yes, you don't know, brother, right?" Li Bai laughed.
Bai He shook his head blankly, he really didn't know, because no one had ever mentioned this stubble to him.
"Hahaha! Brother Xian, you are also a superb scholar, you don't even know your own mansion, if you say it, I'm afraid you won't want to eliminate the big teeth of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs? Hahaha......" Li Bai said and laughed a few more times.
"This ...... What the hell is going on? Shirakawa was dumbfounded.
Li Bai didn't answer, but smiled mysteriously: "Won't you know if you go in and see?" ”
Bai He glanced up at the plaque, thinking that if it came, it would be safe, so he nodded: "It's okay......"
As they spoke, the two walked into the White Mansion.
"Second master, please." As soon as I entered the door, I was greeted by a man who looked like a butler. He glanced at Bai He, who seemed to recognize his hairstyle, and greeted him with some hesitation: "Are you ...... Master? ”
Suddenly, he saw Li Bai next to him, and recognized that this was the famous Mr. Qinglian, and immediately exclaimed: "You are really the young master!" ”
"Quick! Go and tell the young lady that the young master is back! ”
"The young master is back!"
One stone startled a thousand waves, and a noise suddenly sounded in the compound.
"Young lady?" Bai He was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, and was suddenly overjoyed: "Qing'er! Is Qing'er there too? Qing'er! Where are you? ”
He shouted and was about to rush in, but he didn't expect the words to fall, and suddenly he saw a large group of people dressed as maids and maids coming out of nowhere, and there were hundreds of them at a rough glance, all of them were like military parades, standing in a neat line in the front yard.
"I heard it, what is it called......
A familiar voice came, and I saw a pretty figure walking out of the corner of the corridor, with eyebrows curved like willows, eyes shining like stars, and thin cherry lips pursed into a curved arc, isn't it who the second lady is?
"Qing'er! Sure enough, it's you! Bai He was suddenly surprised and delighted, "Why are you here?" ”
"Why can't I be here?"
Seeing Bai He, the second lady was actually very happy in her heart, but in front of so many people, she was embarrassed to show it, but she just snorted angrily, and then straightened her face, and shouted to the subordinates next to her very mavely: "What are you doing here, why don't you hurry up and call the young master?" And Mr. Qinglian! ”
"Hello young master!" All the subordinates bent down in unison, and then shouted to Li Bai: "I've seen Mr. Qinglian." ”
"Eh, it's free, it's ......"
Li Bai just nodded and smiled, but Bai He hurriedly waved his hand.
Although his status in the Lin Mansion is also very noble, to be honest, this is the first time he has encountered such a battle in his two lives.
At this time, although he was still full of doubts, he also knew that what Li Bai said was true, this "White Mansion" was really a mansion given to us by the Holy Queen!
Thinking about meeting for the first time...... Well, it should be said that it is the first time to be the master of the house, such a festive thing, of course, you have to send red envelopes, so Bai He took out a stack of silver tickets a little clumsily, and without counting them, he directly stuffed them to the housekeeper who just went out to greet him, and said with a lot of money: "When we meet for the first time, take it and share it for everyone." ”
"Thank you, Young Master, for the reward!"
Under the leadership of the housekeeper, the group of subordinates answered neatly again, until the second lady said: "Okay, now that the young master has seen it, then what should you do!" ”。
"Yes, young lady!"
Then the people dispersed in an orderly manner.
"What are you doing in a daze? From now on, this will be our home, come and have a look......" The second lady said, and took Bai He to visit the manor.
All the way forward, only to see pavilions, eaves and paintings, front halls, backyards, study buildings, painting pavilions, workshops, gardens, ponds, etc., the Lin family has here, the Lin family does not have here, and its beauty is more than that of the Lin family.
Among them, there are also housekeepers, maids, nurses, handymen, etc., all of whom are well-trained. As long as you change your clothes, any one of them will go out alone, and it will not make people suspect that this is a subordinate, but the daughter of the son of a small rich family.
This is more than just a resort, it is a super invincible luxury resort!
It was only at this time that Bai He finally accepted all this, bared his teeth and asked Li Baidao: "Big brother, don't sell Guanzi, tell me what's going on, right?" ”
"Hahahaha...... Brother Xian, in the entire imperial court, I'm afraid you are the only one who is still in the dark! ”
Li Bai laughed out loud, and finally stopped being mysterious.
"Actually, Your Majesty has already prepared for you, from today on, this is your home......" He suddenly glanced at the second lady next to him, and corrected: "Well, it should be in Shendu's home." In the future, you can stay here and grow cotton with peace of mind! ”
This is how it is explained at the moment.
Then Bai He knew that it turned out that during his "recuperation" in the Linzhi Courtyard, the Holy Queen had already prepared everything for herself, but she didn't know if she was negligent or wanted to give a surprise or something, so she didn't tell herself.
Since you want to plant cotton, you can't do without the fields, so the holy queen waved her hand and set aside a large piece of land next to Luoshui to Baihe, this "Baifu" is not only Shangshu Mansion, but also a cotton planting base.
After a holy decree, the large piece of fertile land outside the village immediately belonged to Baifu, and the surrounding villages, farmers, long-term workers, short-term workers, etc., were all dispatched by Baifu.
Li Bai relayed a sentence from the Holy Queen, and she said this: Despite the species! He can plant as much as he can in Baihe, but all the fields needed for cotton can be occupied first!
Anyway, there is not much in this era, but there is a lot of land.
What does it mean to be sparsely populated?
The territory is more than 10 million square kilometers, but there are only more than 70 million people living in it, which is not even as good as a province in later generations, that is, the land is vast and sparsely populated!
Although Baifu is outside the Shendu City, it is also an important place in Gyeonggi, not only with convenient transportation and beautiful scenery, but also with the Wenxin Holy Pavilion, the holy land of martial arts, on the left, and the Guards Barracks not far from the right, so there is no need to worry about safety.
What is Gyeonggi called? If you don't understand, then think about today's Baoding District in Beijing.
As for why the second lady is also here?
The answer is actually very simple, because the day before yesterday after separating from Bai He in Wenxin Holy Pavilion, she went to find Li Bai, and Li Bai brought her over.
