Chapter 1367: Lu You and Hua Fang
Except that the roof of her main hall is not as high as the roof of the main hall in the courtyard of the fourth master. But it is said that it is only three bricks shorter.
Her courtyard and the courtyard of the fourth master are side by side, the area is the same, and the two moon gates in the middle are connected, which can actually be regarded as a courtyard.
On the north side of the wall of her and the fourth master's courtyard, there is a road about three zhang wide and more than 30 zhang long.
To the north of the courtyard of the fourth master is a two-story attic, which functions as a warehouse. Further north are the long rows of rooms built next to the wall, these rooms have low ridges, and the area is not large, and each of them forms a small courtyard, which is also the residence of the people of the house.
To the north of her courtyard are four small courtyards with the same structure, each of which has three main halls in the middle, connected to the east and west transepts. On the south side of the main hall, there are side rooms on the east and west, and on the north side are several rooms built next to the north wall of the mansion.
Mama Lan told Chu Xian that these four small courtyards were prepared for the little brothers and little Geges in the house.
From her yard to the south, bypassing the rockery, is the second courtyard of the middle road.
This courtyard is not small, and it is divided into three parts, and it is said that a piece of room in the middle was reserved by the fourth master as his study. The remaining ones are left for the little brother Xiao Gege in the future house to study, some are kept for collecting antiques, calligraphy and painting books, etc., and some are kept for official documents.
Except for the study of the fourth master in the middle, which has been cleaned up, the rest of the rooms are empty. Wait for the future to plan slowly.
Further south is the middle road into the courtyard. It is the same as the courtyard on the west road, on both sides are the inverted seats where the people live, and in the middle is a wide and luxurious shadow wall.
To the north of the shadow wall is the pendulum gate leading to the courtyard of the middle road, and on both sides of the pendulum gate are long and tortuous corridors. Turning and turning, connecting to various places.
The people up and down the house are no longer afraid of the rain.
To the south of the shadow wall is another gate to the mansion.
Although it is not as open and solemn as the main gate of West Road, it is still several times more magnificent than the gate of the official palace.
The carving on the beam of the main gate of the west road is a dragon, and the carving on the beam of the gate here is much more approachable, and the pine crane and bamboo bat are used.
As for the shadow wall in the middle of the courtyard in the middle of the middle road, the front is carved with five blessings, and the back is carved with peacock peonies.
The peacock peony picture should have been specially carved for her to see. She is a prince and a princess, and she deserves this painting.
As for the east road of the mansion, Chu Xian originally thought that there would be a lot of courtyards.
After all, the fourth master is a prince, and in the future, many women may be stuffed in, and these women must have a place to live.
But as far as she could see, there were only six courtyards on the middle and west roads. The two large courtyards are the fourth master and hers, and the four small courtyards are for the children. There was no place to live for the concubines.
However, the layout of the East Road once again stunned Chu Xian.
The entire East Road, except for the two-story theater next to the south wall, is the garden and the school field, where is there any courtyard for the concubines?
As for the garden, from Chu Xian's point of view, it was a bit too beautiful.
In the middle is a delicately shaped lake, the water in the lake is rippling and the residual lotus is beautiful, and the beautiful koi fish shuttles between the residual lotus, which is full of interest; Several pieces of the best Taihu Lake stones of different shapes are dotted in the lake, adding to the subtlety.
Even the boat mooring by the lake is just right.
There are many strange stones by the lake, and the placement is very particular, obviously man-made, but it makes people give birth to a kind of stone that seems to grow naturally from the lake.
There are so many flowers and plants in the garden, there are too many Chu Xian to name, and it is really impossible to list them.
But that's not just what shocked her.
