Chapter 207: Entering Beijing (6)
After thinking about it for a while, Li Wenxuan also felt that it was very easy to understand. Taoism is the state religion, and it is vigorously propagated and advocated by the ruling strata from top to bottom. In addition, at this time, people's level of cognition is not comparable to that of later generations, and it is natural to attribute many unexplained natural phenomena and other things to the gods in the sky, or to the ghosts.
Sun Wenzhong's fear was for the imperial power, but his respect for Li Wenxuan was from the bottom of his heart, after all, he didn't expect that such a young man in front of him would be the imperial scholar of today's dynasty. If he didn't have a profound Taoism, he would not dare to buy this ominous mansion of his own.
Before this, he also invited a lot of Taoists to set up altars to exorcise ghosts, but there was no effect. Sun Wenzhong, who thought about it, realized that the ordinary Taoist people of the people were no better than the Taoist scholars around the emperor. Feeling that bad things have turned into good things, he has more or less a relationship with Li Wenxuan, after all, they know each other anyway.
Sun Wenzhong, who understands the world and doesn't want to be too abrupt, did not get too close to the relationship between the two, but wisely chose to leave, after all, there will be an opportunity to visit in the future. As soon as he walked out of the gate of the mansion, he was followed by the butler and asked, "Master, you have lost tens of thousands of taels of silver this time!" Now that you know who he is, why don't you ask him to exorcise evil spirits? If you do this, you won't have to lose tens of thousands of taels of silver. ”
did not rush to get into the carriage, but looked back at Sun Wenzhong, did not see outsiders coming, and said bluntly: "I agreed to sell the house, but I changed my mind and did not sell it, and then it became a heavy gift to hire him to set up an altar, is this realistic?" The consequences of my doing so will not only fail to achieve my wishes, but will also offend him completely. This person is the person who is the next person of the Son of Heaven, so it is not something I can offend. It's all because I spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to hand him over. In the long run, I will not suffer a loss in this transaction, after all, others are still so young and have such a ability, and the future is naturally limitless. ”
After speaking, he was helped into the carriage by the housekeeper, drilled into the carriage, and led a group of his own people back home. Only Li Wenxuan and others were left in the mansion, so it became more and more convenient to talk. After turning around this circle, he could feel that the area here was more than five times larger than the residence in Guixi City. In addition, rockeries and strange rocks are numerous.
Many gardens and fish ponds have their own characteristics, and houses, small buildings, etc. are also built very carefully. I praised it unabashedly, and this place is indeed worthy of the grandeur of a big family in Beijing. Compared to the ancestral house that used to be in Guixi City, one is in the sky, and the other is on the ground.
"Master, the slave family wants the courtyard we passed by first just now." Accompanying him was Su Meiniang, who had gone around again, and had already calculated which place she wanted to be here.
"Brother Wen Xuan, people also want the courtyard we passed through first." Zhao Tian'er, who was supported by Ning Xiang is left hand, took the initiative to approach him, and then expressed his strong will.
Before Li Wenxuan came back to his senses and asked carefully, Lin Ruoxi, who also fell in love with that courtyard, expressed the same meaning and said: "Xianggong, the concubine also wants that one as a place to live." ”
Noticing that Li Wenxuan, who looked at him with six eyes neatly, he felt that there was nothing to do if he didn't buy a house, and he was in trouble when he bought a house. I guess the three of them have taken a fancy to the two-story embroidery building and the small garden in that place. The embroidery building is not only exquisite and elegant, but also the location is not close to the lively core of the house, but it can have the effect of climbing up and overlooking the beautiful scenery of the whole house. And the biggest highlight of this small garden is nothing more than a pavilion and a lotus carp pond. Peach trees are planted around the pavilion, and weeping willows are planted around the lotus carp pond facing here.
Li Wenxuan, who couldn't let the three of them live in one courtyard, wanted them to humble each other in the spirit of family harmony and happiness: "In addition to that courtyard, aren't there five courtyards?" Why don't you think about it again? As soon as the words fell, Zhao Tian'er, Lin Ruoxi, and Su Meiniang almost unanimously expressed the courtyard they only wanted to say.
Li Wenxuan, who still adheres to a bowl of water, lest any of them be petty towards him in the future, so he will not be partial because Zhao Tianer is pregnant with his own child, so he came up with a tried and tested method and said: "There is only one such courtyard, since you all like it, then you can only decide by lot." Whoever catches it, that's who's. ”
Zhao Tian'er, Lin Ruoxi, and Su Meiniang glanced at each other, and nodded slightly in agreement, after all, they also felt that this was very fair. After a short time, Li Wenxuan made three lots by himself, and put them on a stone table. Before they were caught, they also asked them to rock-paper-scissors, in order to achieve the order of one, two, and three.
After some rock-paper-scissors, Su Meiniang ranked first, Zhao Tianer second, and Lin Ruoxi landed on the tail. They didn't have a second word, and they grabbed the lot in turn. After a while, it was clear of course. The paper ball in Lin Ruoxi's hand had a mark made by Li Wenxuan on it, but there was no paper in the other two's hands. So, there is no doubt that she won the lottery. I was embarrassed not to admit it, and said that Zhao Tian'er and Su Meiniang, who came again, even if they were a little disappointed in their hearts, they had to admit that they were unlucky. Lin Ruoxi, who had the corners of her mouth slightly upturned on both sides, was very satisfied with such a result.
"There are five courtyards, so you two can choose one each!" Li Wenxuan, who still has to arrange a place for them to live, always has to know who he wants to sleep with in the future, and he should go to a certain place.
Zhao Tian'er, who showed disappointment, said unabashedly: "Whatever! Brother Wenxuan, if you let me live there, I can live there. ”
Knowing that the courtyard they were fighting for should have been the residence of the young lady in the family, Li Wenxuan, who was thinking about her identity as his wife, smiled and said, "Since you let me choose for you, then you can live in the main courtyard facing the north." Although there are no small buildings, there is no shortage of small gardens, and the area is the largest, and the buildings are the largest. ”
Zhao Tian'er, who was still thinking about the western courtyard in her heart, pursed her lips and said, "Okay, that's the only way." ”
Su Meiniang, who didn't want to live in the same direction as Lin Ruoxi, and wished that she was as far away from the other party as possible, chose the remaining four courtyards and said, "Then the slave family wants a yard with several pear trees in the east yard." ”
