Chapter 99: The Mansion of Luoma Street

Zhu Tongmeng ran over in a hurry, and as soon as he entered the door, he didn't say much, and went straight to the left-handed bookcase. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

Everyone in the room was stunned, not knowing how Zhu Tongmeng would react when he saw Yin Fusheng lying in his place.

Unexpectedly, when Zhu Tongmeng came to the bookcase, he didn't seem to see Yin Fusheng, but was busy looking for things in the large stacks of files on the case.

Seeing this, Yin Fusheng got up and saluted, "Lord Zhu." ”

"Huh." Zhu Tongmeng replied lightly, and did not stop turning things in his hands at all.

Everyone was stunned, someone occupied his leadership position, and he reacted like this.

Everyone looked at each other......

"Lord Zhu, the next official is a newly appointed officer, Yin Fusheng ......"

Hearing this, Zhu Tongmeng seemed to have just seen someone standing next to him.

Stopped what he was busy with, raised his head, and looked at Yin Fusheng, who seemed to be very surprised.

He looked the young man in front of him up and down, and said in surprise: "You are the person co-recommended by Guangning Jingfu?" ”

Yin Fusheng arched his hand, "It's Xiaguan." ”

"Sure enough, it's a young talent. Well. After a brief compliment, he turned his head to look at the dumbfounded people, "Zhu Dadian, is there any arrangement for his residence?" ”

"It's arranged."

Zhu Dadian walked out of the crowd.

"Then take him there."

"Yes, my lord."

Zhu Tongmeng flipped through the file twice, and said to Yin: "You Guangning has made great meritorious contributions, go and settle down first, rest for one night, and come back tomorrow." I'm so busy with my official affairs, I won't talk to you more about it for the time being. ”

After speaking, Zhu Tongmeng took out a copy from the dossier, looked at the cover, and his eyes lit up, "I found it!" Then, he rushed out of the door.

It's really a hurry, and it's a rush to go. So that everyone couldn't keep up with him.

After that, Yin Fusheng followed this person named Zhu Dadian out of the road, out of the inner city, and went straight to the west of the outer city.

In the outer city of the capital of the Ming Dynasty, there were many government staff dormitories. Liubu's, Jinyiwei's, Tai's Hospital, Kedao's and so on.

The size of the dwelling is generally determined by the rank of the official, and occasionally there is a small adjustment depending on the number of family members.

It's just that these staff dormitories are not for nothing, and they are rented by the accommodation officials themselves.

Moreover, the original furniture items inside must be registered. When this person leaves his job and returns to his hometown, these things will have to be handed in.

Of course, by the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was no longer a big deal for officials to buy real estate privately in Beijing. The emperor also turned a blind eye to this.

Except for the new officials who have just arrived, no one generally wants to live in this kind of public house, which is far away from the Forbidden City and is dilapidated and simple.

There is a mule and horse market street in the west of the outer city, as the name suggests, it is a market place for selling mules and horses.

The courtyard where Yin Fusheng wants to live is at the end of this street.

This house has been deserted for a while.

Considering the people who built this house here back then, they may not want to play with anyone.

No official wants to stay here.

The reason is very simple, the dignified court officials flow all day long in the noisy city of mules and horses, and accidentally have to step on horse manure.

Who will?

Not only that, but adjacent to this mule and horse market, there is also a vegetable market.

Think of the scene, think of the smell.

At night, the whole street is filled with the smell of leftovers and rotten leaves, mixed with the smell of livestock feces and urine.

Even if you hide in the door of the house, the smell is enough to linger for half a night.

Yin Fusheng followed Zhu Dadian across the dirty streams, climbed over countless "minefields", and came to a simple house.

"Ahem......" both of them covered their mouths at the same time.

Zhu Dadian waved his hand in front of him, raised his leg and walked in, "Yin Zhishi, you can live first." ”

"Just this house......? It's not going to collapse in the middle of the night, is it? Yin Fusheng laughed slightly at himself.

"Hehe, what about you, don't look for me. Letting you live here, that's what the top means. Zhu Dadian looked at the desolation of the courtyard, and unconsciously felt some compassion.

"Upper?"

"When you were a pair of sarcastic officials, you should have expected it to this day. You, don't worry, just say a few good words to people, let people breathe this out, what kind of house do you want to change when the time comes? ”

Hearing this, Yin Fusheng's expression was indifferent, but he secretly scolded in his heart: Tell me to say good things to them? To hell with it.

After that, Zhu Dadian gossiped a few words lukewarmly, and asked Yin Fusheng to hire two subordinates as soon as possible and rent a sedan chair and the like. He also came up with the idea to bring his daughter-in-law to help with the housework.

Finally, don't forget to say a few words, "Don't say much, you have to live here for half a year and a year, don't think too much." This Beijing official is not easy to be, and he looks at people's faces everywhere. Especially if you offend people, you have to have a little bit of eyesight. ”

Zhu Dadian was cold enough, so he left with a disgusted face.

Faced with the dirty mess in his eyes, Yin Fusheng was also a mess.

He lifted his robe and tiptoed into the courtyard, intending to visit his mansion first.

Although this courtyard is small, it is also full of organs.

As soon as you enter the gate, there is a small porter on the right-hand side. There was a simple wooden bed.

This is a place for the janitor's quarters.

Because the yard is small, there are kitchens, toilets and firewood rooms in the hidden places on the right, and there is no order at all.

Inside, a hall.

This is an indispensable place for any official's residence.

Walking into the hall, it was also full of dust.

It is not big here, and it is facing the door with a picture of a pine, which means that the officials should be upright.

Draw a table and two chairs for the upper position.

There are guest seats on each side of the hall.

On the left side of the hall, behind the guest seats, is an antique screen.

Behind the screen, there are bookshelves and a long table in the corner.

Forming a semi-open study.

There were only dust and cobwebs on the shelves, and there were no books.

The four treasures of the table and the upper room are also dilapidated.

The hair of the brush is divided into stubble, and the ink is added with dust, and it is no longer usable.

From the study, you can go down the left side of the hall, and this leads to the main room of the inner house.

That is, where Yin Fusheng slept.

There were basin shelves in the main room, several wooden cabinets, and a round table with tea sets and cups on the table.

A shelf bed against the wall that cannot be seen in color, covered with "dust", and there are "fences" on three sides, forming an independent space centered on the bed.

Look at the bedding on the bed again, it is full of dust and marks of rat bites.

As soon as I lifted my hand, I suddenly felt a musty smell.

Yin Fusheng hurriedly hid his face, "How do you sleep here?" ”

After a long time of melancholy, I went out of the main house and went to the backyard.

A side room in the backyard.

Live a girl, live a place for a concubine.

There is a well hidden in the corner.

The well water is dried up and covered with dead leaves.

There is no back door in the backyard, and there is an ancient locust tree against the wall, and after the spring rain, there are still young shoots. It's the only thing in the whole yard that shows life.
