Unlike those scholars who aspire to the court to have a general yearning for the capital, Chungui's expectations for the capital, which is still habitually called "Beiping", are only limited to unfamiliar places, and there are certainly characters and customs that she has never seen. Just when she first entered the capital, she was also prepared to look at the street scene smoothly along the road, when at the last resting place a small hill slope looked at the Yongding Gate from afar, the green glazed cut edge ash tube tile heavy eaves rest on the top of the mountain, then resigned herself to the cramped carriage - fortunately, Lan Ting was careful, yesterday the car window was replaced with a tulle band, and when I didn't need to open a crack in the spring return, I was worried about being peeped at by others, and I scolded "this woman is restless".

Since entering the city gate, there was a noise and then gradually quieted down, and Chungui listened to the noise and shouted, "Come to the bowl of tofu brain, hey, the tofu brain that melts in the mouth misses and regrets it for life"; Either it is "Yushu Xun, tender yellow and deep, spring sleep at night without weight, pressure beauty wrapped in arms...... Here is the Jiao Circle praised by the Dongpo monks, filling hunger and satisfying hunger"; There are also shouts of "sugar ears", "Aiwowo" and so on.

I guessed that the reason why this section was lively was because the guards at the gate of the city had to inspect the road quotations of the people entering and exiting, and it took a lot of time. If you can't say it, you're going to patronize it.

This is a little different from Fenyang City, Fenyang's city gate to walk a mile inside, are not allowed to set up stalls, and vendors are not allowed to stay along the street to sell, a distance is very quiet, I did not expect the Son of Heaven to be at the foot of the Huanghuang capital, but not from the city gate began to be solemn, giving people the first impression is the breath of life of firewood, rice, oil and salt.

After the noise at the door of Zuo'an, the ears gradually quieted down, Chungui guessed that this should not be a downtown area, she looked through the window screen, faintly saw the row houses on both sides of the street, nor the tall rooms of the gatehouse, the pedestrians walked lazily, for the passing traffic on the road seems to have become commonplace, even the yellow dog napping in the shade of the roadside tree, but also not alarmed by the people and carriages on the street, only occasionally there are children, will send out the cheers of "big horses".

To wait until close to Xuanwumen, the warm sound will hit the head, so that people can not hear the meaning of the real sentence at all, often a sentence to distinguish a few words, is cut off by another sentence, the gallop road also becomes unobstructed, the carriage stops and stops, the spring return looks out, and what I see is only a small sedan chair being carried by people but walking happily, so that she can't help but "sigh".

Because of the special change of carriage in the city, Xu is the picture of lightness, this car only allows Chungui to ride alone, is at this time she did not even have a chatting maid, although the screen window is convenient to watch, but it is not strict daylight, and although it is already autumn, but the momentum of the autumn tiger is fierce, people in the cramped carriage still have to be roasted by the sun, the taste is not lost?

It turns out that the hardship is not the wind and dust bumps on the way, but the hardship is that after entering the city, you can't move if you want to bump.

I don't know if Lan Ting heard the sigh of Chun Gui, and led the horse to the window - because he had to follow the car, the ride was not smooth, and Lan Ting simply led the horse forward, and when he came over, he blocked the sun a little, at least adding shade to the carriage.

"This section is the entrance of the vegetable market, it is the downtown where the inner city and the outer city intersect, so it is the most noisy, and it is good to enter the Xuanwu Gate after this section, at least the road will be smooth."

As soon as Lan Ting's words fell, Chun Gui listened to a "boom" explosion, which shocked her scalp numb and her ears were deaf, and it took a while to regain her hearing, but what she heard was a cheer from the good deeds, she looked to the right in a panic, and saw that Lan Ting was still walking out of the window unhurriedly to feel at ease, she swallowed her saliva and was about to ask what happened, when she saw that Lan Ting had already turned his face, in such a noisy crowd, under the scorching sun, his eyebrows and eyes were still quiet and secluded, like a deep valley and deep pool, so that Chun Gui was not only at ease but also irritable to reduce.

"The sound of Xuanwu noon cannon shook Beijing, and this daily noon cannon sound can also be called a scene in the capital, we happened to meet today."

Chungui stroked his chest and sighed in the window: "I see, I thought it was the capital that gave me a little woman to get off the horse, and I wondered what kind of virtue I had." ”

At this time, the spring return still did not know that the vegetable market outside the Xuanwu Gate was not only a busy market, but also a place of execution, the death row prisoners were audited by the Criminal Department to launch the Xuanwu Gate to ask for beheading, and the time of asking for the beheading was set at three o'clock in the afternoon, often after the sound of the cannon sounded, there were people on the ground, combined with the three words of "regret late" engraved on the top of the city gate, for the traitors and bandits of the traitor department in order to play a deterrent effect, if this cannon sound is the dismount, it really has that meaning.

In the future, when Chungui finally cleared up another use of the vegetable market, thinking of the emotion that she was originally a joke, she couldn't cry or laugh, she had never had the "ambition" to be a traitor, how could she just catch up with this "dismount"?!

After the carriage drove into the Xuanwu Gate, it became a lot smoother when it went forward, and when she returned to the window, she saw that the gatehouses on both sides of the street were towering, and the white walls were lined with green leaves like green covers, and she could hardly see the simple row houses, and she probably understood that she had entered the market where the nobles of the high gate lived.

Of course, the next section of the road is not secluded and quiet, but the house is deep and the road is wide, and the plan is moderate, which is not similar to the congestion of the downtown outside the city, and it is another kind of prosperity that does not see the hustle and bustle.

But perhaps it is precisely because of the smooth traffic and a lot less of the sound of the market, Chungui felt that the landscape outside the window was boring, only a few glances, and then sat in the carriage with empty eyes, she wanted to simply take a nap, and was afraid that when she got home, she slept soundly, and it was too impolite to go to see people when she was sleepy, and she was criticized when she first entered the Taishi's Mansion, so she had to add a lot of trouble in the future.

Chungui is a person who tries to save trouble, so he would rather behave in a momentary manner than bear slander for a long time.

Finally at the moment of drowsiness, the carriage finally stopped, Chun Gui cheered up and looked out, only to see that ten steps away should be the side door of the Taishi Mansion, there were already door servants waiting outside, and Tang Hui and Qiao Zhuang were arguing about something, and after a while, the two doors were opened and even the threshold was removed, Lan Ting rode in first, and the carriage she was sitting in drove slowly again.

The entrance turned into a corridor, next to the outer wall planted with sycamores, all of which have been lush and leafy for a long time, with this green cover shading, the carriage immediately reduced the stuffiness, and the other window looked out of a row of green walls that could not see the head of the wall, occasionally there would be a vacant passage, there was a servant woman who walked out of the road but did not dare to collide because of the carriage and horses of the master's house, and stood in the corridor with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes.

Chungui remembered that the Gu family also built such a road, which was a sedan chair for female dependents to pass, and of course it was also a convenient road for servants to enter and exit, but the road in Taishi's Mansion was wider and longer.

After walking in the corridor for more than a moment, the carriage stopped at the corner, the driver retreated, and a few mothers-in-law carried the green tent sedan chair over, first greeted the Lan Ting, and then greeted the spring return outside the carriage to change the sedan chair, these should be the old messengers of the Taishi Mansion, there is no redundant word, no eyes are not glanced, the posture is humble, and the sedan chair is also carried steadily.

After about 100 steps, the sedan chair was put down, and when it arrived at the door of the inner house, Lan Ting had already dismounted.

"We don't need to sit in a sedan chair, we can just walk inside."

Lan Ting beckoned, Tang came back and led the horse to continue walking, the mother-in-law carried the empty sedan car and went to that end, and the car taken by Qingping, Mei Xi and others was estimated to have not arrived so soon, and the two of them were suddenly empty and there was no scene of hugging each other.

Chun Gui didn't have to be so scrupulous, and began to look at her husband's house.

This will be the place where most of her life will be spended, in addition to curiosity, there is also an indescribable complex emotion, like the anxiety of the wedding day has returned.

Two doors enter, is a bluestone wall, although it is also decorated with ash tube green tiles, but the wall does not move a knife and a chisel relief, but by borrowing the stone surface naturally like the ornamentation of the landscape, lined with the clumps of bamboos under the wall, the virtual and the real reflect each other, solemn and do not lose interest.

Bypass the wall, it is a square courtyard presented in front of you, there are copying hand verandahs on both sides, the four corners are planted with ancient trees towering to the sky, a main hall sits in the north and faces south, and the plaque is written with the three words of "Xuan Zhutang".

Lan Ting led Chun Hui to the corner door on the west side of the main hall to enter, and went around to the courtyard of the back, she saw the plaque hanging on the blue lacquer door with the words "Hesitant Garden".

"This is the main courtyard where my grandfather lived before his death, named by my grandfather, inscribed by my grandfather, and written by my grandfather, and my grandmother still lives here." Lan Ting gave a brief explanation of the return of spring.

In terms of location and structure, Chungui can already see that the garden is the main courtyard, but what I didn't expect is that it is still inhabited by an old lady.

Nowadays, the old family owner is dead, and the old housewife is widowed, most of them will move to a more secluded courtyard, and give the main house to the son and daughter-in-law of the house, although Zhao Jiangcheng and Mrs. Shen are now in Fenyang, but Zhao Jiangcheng has not been able to recover for a long time, that is to say, in the past three years, when they were in the capital, they have not been able to move into this main courtyard that seeks the power of the head of the family.

It seems that the earlier speculation was by no means groundless, and between the old lady of the Taishi Mansion and Mrs. Shen, the open and secret battle was really in full swing.

Chun Gui's heart was heavy, and he couldn't tell if the old lady who was extremely difficult to get along with in the legend would give a head start because she was chosen by Mrs. Shen.

As soon as the two of them stepped into the courtyard door, they saw a woman greet them in person, and when they stopped, they smiled at Lan Ting: "Brother Ting is back." ”

It was as if Chungui was regarded as an invisible person, and no image fell in her eyes.
