Chapter 280: Change of Power (Additional Chapter)

And the mansion and garden here are all semi-open, with many varieties of flowers, ingenious shapes of lake stones, and exquisite landscape layout, which dazzle passers-by.

Of course, the owners of these mansions are not worried about public security, and this arrangement is not to provide people with free garden viewing, but to compete with each other.

There is never the best, only better. A single piece of KitKat Lake Stone for stacking scenery has to be transported from thousands of miles away, and the money and manpower are very expensive.

Here, even the air is filled with the smell of paper luxury. When Feng Miaojun wanders here, he can often sigh that the glitz of Taiping City is like cooking oil on fire, which is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. It is said that 50 days ago, the eldest grandson of Taiwei He put a full moon wine, in addition to entertaining dignitaries and nobles, he also set up a flowing water banquet, one table after another, a full row of three streets, no one refuses, even beggars and poor peasants, sit down and eat and drink for free.

This set of flowing water mats has been set up for a full month.

Which one is happy now?

Fu Lingchuan said with a smile: "That's General Gao's housewarming." ”

"Which General Gao?"

"Who else can there be? The noble concubine's own brother, a tall general who is in the limelight. Fu Lingchuan said leisurely, "He moved into the mansion of the Marquis of Pingyuan, and then spread the invitation card widely, and also sent a copy to you." ”

Feng Miaojun was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "So we are on our way to congratulate his family now?"

"Exactly. Fu Lingchuan shrugged, "The congratulatory gifts are ready." ”

This guy arranged her own itinerary and didn't say a word to her beforehand! Feng Miaojun heaved: "How do you know that I won't refuse?"

"That's the mansion of the Marquis of Pingyuan. Fu Lingchuan said, "Do you know who this is?"

"Nonsense. Feng Miaojun didn't have a good breath, "Isn't he the fuse of Pu Yan's battle?"

Pingyuan Marquis was originally an important minister of Yan State, and he had a habit of breaking ¥~ sleeves, and he committed suicide by insulting Pu Guo's proton for several years, and King Pu was furious and sent troops to attack Yan, which led to the battle of Pu Yan that lasted for more than half a year.

The king of Yan wanted the Marquis of Pingyuan to atone for his crimes, but the Marquis of Pingyuan died in battle on the front line a few months later, and the domestic condemnation of him subsided; King Pu saw that the enemy of the murderer was martyred, and his anger rested for a while, and when the Yan army captured the capital of Puguo, the victory or defeat of the war was decided, and the Pu State finally admitted defeat.

"After the death of the Marquis of Pingyuan, there were accidents in the house one after another, and it is no longer the same as before. His son was in a hurry to get money, so he sold the house cheaply. "Oh, dead. Feng Miaojun's heart moved slightly. If the Marquis of Pingyuan does not die in battle, the battle of Puyan does not know how to end. Yan Guo always has to give someone an explanation.

Fu Lingchuan made up the rest of the information for her, "Pingyuan Hou's mansion is second only to Yangshan Jun in the north of the city, the area is large, and the beauty of the garden, and the mansion covers several scenic spots in Taiping City, which can not be seen without the invitation of the master's family; ”

Feng Miaojun was a little fascinated: "I want to buy it when I hear it." ”

"That's a sky-high price. Fu Lingchuan has lived in Taiping City for a long time, and he has long been a local expert, and he can explain to her very well, "The most important thing is that there are few empty houses for sale in the north of the city. A mansion like the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion has not been sold for at least twenty years. ”

Feng Miaojun sighed: "That means that Yan Ting has rarely been promoted?"

"Not really!" Fu Lingchuan said, "These mansions are all in the hands of the gate valve, and the nouveau riche can't get them." Therefore, when General Gao got the mansion of the Marquis of Pingyuan, he would make a big show and have a lively scene. ”

"So, the Gao family is an upstart?"

"Correct. Fu Lingchuan praised her for her actions, "By the way, I will tell you the gossip: Taishi Xing has liked this house for a long time, and it is said that the Marquis of Pingyuan has also expressed his stance that he wants to give him this house." As a result, after he died in battle, his son sold the house to General Gao, which made Taishi Xing angry. ”

Feng Miaojun was stunned: "Taishi Xing, but Queen Xing's biological father?"

"Yes, King Yan is more than a hundred years old, and he has only had one queen in his decades of reign, and that is Queen Xing. Fu Lingchuan said eloquently, "King Yan is very protective of the queen, but unfortunately Queen Xing is a mortal and died before she was fifty years old. After that, King Yan did not establish a queen again, she was a favored woman again, and at most she only had a concubine. ”

"Flounder affection?"

Fu Lingchuan couldn't help laughing, why do women always like to think about politics so much: "That's not it." As a cultivator, King Yan has a lifespan far beyond that of mortals. If he had been a queen, he would have had three or four queens by now. The ritual was too cumbersome for him to do. Besides, every time a new queen is raised, Yan Guo will have a batch of upstarts. The latter position cannot be revoked casually, and it will do more harm than good to King Yan. ”

There is a point in that. Mortals live for dozens of years, and they can't accompany King Yan to his old age. No matter how beautiful the queen is, she will definitely be old and decrepit if she stays in the deep palace for decades, but King Yan is young for a long time, and she has to face an old man after returning to the palace, how can her eyes be happy?

If there is no queen, there will be no problem. Although the concubine has a lot of position, in the final analysis, she is just the little wife of the monarch, and it is much easier to scold or degrade or promote a younger and more beautiful position.

"As the only monarch of this dynasty, Xing Taishi is highly respected, and the court officials must go to visit before taking office, which has become a common practice in Taiping City. Pingyuan Hou was also one of the later parties during his lifetime, but he caused the Puyan War, the government and the opposition had a bad opinion of him, and Xing Taishi was also implicated a lot, and he was secretly counted a few times by King Yan, and he was depressed. Fu Lingchuan said with a smile, "His son was confused, he sold the house to the Gao family, and he couldn't get along in Taiping City, and I heard that he moved out last month." ”

Feng Miaojun said with a smile: "Light the fire and run, this guy is hated." ”

As he spoke, he arrived at General Gao's new mansion. The two handed the post in, and General Gao's brother came to receive the two foreign guests.

Although he smiled at each other, Feng Miaojun understood that the identity of the "Queen of New Xia" should not be valued by the Gao family, otherwise General Gao should come to greet him in person at this moment.

After all, she is a foreign king, and she is a door-to-door congratulator, and the Gao Mansion should give the highest courtesy.

Fu Lingchuan saw her smiling, and he couldn't see the slightest annoyance, and he couldn't figure out for a while whether she didn't expect this important relationship, or if she was too good at cultivating kung fu.

This genuine princess Changle is really good at hiding her thoughts. This has met the basic requirements of the emperor's mood.

Today's Gao family is really full of guests, and it is very lively. Fu Lingchuan met many court officials here, and took the opportunity of the conversation to quietly introduce Feng Miaojun to Feng Miaojun one by one.

Although this mansion is worthy of its name, there are many ingenuity in the stacking of green and smoke, waterfalls and flowing springs. At once, he compared the mansions of other people around him.
