Chapter 170: Meeting
At present, Wang's little thoughts have not been able to affect Gu Wan. //..
After February, the renovation of the Gu family's new house was completed.
Although the royal family did not promulgate too many etiquette regulations, but what kind of house to live in, or to comply with the rules, now their new house used to be the Hou Mansion, even if it is down, there are still many places that are not suitable for the Gu family, but the modification of the corners and corners is very time-consuming.
If it weren't for Mu Yanzhao's thoughtfulness, he ordered the craftsmen to help over there, and allocated more than a dozen old craftsmen whose skills were not worse than willow wood, and brought a bunch of apprentices to help, I'm afraid this mansion wouldn't be able to repair it so quickly.
Over the years, Gu Wan has done this kind of work several times in building a house and renovating a house, and she has long been familiar with these things, and this time there are more people to help, and it has not taken much effort.
Dayong's house is different from that in Yazhou, you can't just think about the comfort of your own life, but also have to consider the façade problem, in addition to the comfortable layout of your own yard, the 'luxury' that the new house should have, is half a point or a lot.
The new house covers an area, about forty acres, different from the ordinary mansion, it is the style of the Jiangnan garden that Gu Wan is more suitable for, although it is not as good as the Yazhou side, and the mountains and forests are more atmospheric as courtyards, but the garden here is more delicate and detailed.
Pavilions and pavilions, bridges, corridors, pavilions, Xuanyuan Zhai, all available, no place is not ingenious, there is living water in the courtyard to introduce, such as the Spring Pavilion, the Shadow Hall, the Mountain Building, the Wind Pavilion, the Yunxiao Pavilion, the Jiuqu Corridor Bridge, etc., more are built near the water, and the rockery ponds and marshes are all original.
Although it is only February, the sky has just warmed up, but the water in the garden is murmuring. The green pines and willows add a little greenery to the garden where the flowers are not in full bloom.
The Gu family of three is very satisfied.
Gu Wan was even more heartfelt. This house didn't even cost 8,000 taels for decoration, it was too cheap, so someone else bought it. It's less than 10,000 taels, and I guess I don't even have to think about it. Obviously, it was the owner of the sale, and in order to please her, he deliberately discounted a lot.
In this regard, Gu Wan could only smile bitterly, now that the eldest brother has not yet come out, these people are rushing to stammer. It seems that it is unlikely that in the future, I will want to live a quiet life like in Yazhou.
Gu Wan is okay, she is about the life she will face in the future. I was mentally prepared, but I was a little worried about my eldest brother. Forrest gump
Gu Anran has only been in Dayong for a long time, and there are many high-ranking officials and nobles, corporal Lixian, making a look of being eager to seek talent...... This is not a good thing, but fortunately he has a clear mind, so he is not blinded by this sudden scenery.
Gu Anran's life course, Gu Nan, who is a master, already has a plan-
First of all, we must take him to the palace to make a document, so that he can be cultivated. The background of the palace is also better, after leaving, it will also make people look up to three points elsewhere, and when Gu Anran comes out, he will be put into Dali Temple and the criminal department to mix and show his face. Take the opportunity to establish a good relationship with the upper echelons, and then find an opportunity to put it on the local area to hone for a few years, and when the qualifications are enough, return to the capital to become the center.
Gu Anran is Gu Nan's favorite apprentice, he will naturally consider all kinds of pros and cons for him, I don't know how long he has been thinking about it in his mind, Gu Anran also knows in his heart, he obediently went to the palace to be drilled this time, and he didn't get involved in other affairs...... At the beginning of the new dynasty, the amnesty of the world, the first year of Wende, the entire Dayong City was full of lights and beams, at least on the surface, those old ministers who missed the previous dynasty did not make trouble at this time.
Of course, this is a change of dynasty, is to seek stability, or have some turmoil, once the emperor is still a courtier, this dilapidated welcome to the new, the establishment of a new court, must promote and appoint new people, divide the heroes, and strike at those courtier families that were deeply rooted in the power of the previous dynasty, in just over a month, when people have not noticed much, there are countless families in decline, and there are many successful families that have developed significantly, and soon gained a foothold in the court.
By February, the government and the opposition had gradually reached a balance, the Mu family had indeed won the hearts of the people, and it took decades to prepare, no better than those emperors who fought the country with their bare hands, there are many talents under their hands, and their own cultivated cronies alone, although they can't support the entire court, they still have to borrow officials from the previous dynasty, but there is no problem in controlling the court.
However, it is impossible to be calm all the time, even if the Mu family is winning the hearts of the people, it is inevitable that there will be clowns who jump off the beam, and it is not happy to find it, the Mu family is magnanimous, but when it is time to be ruthless, they will never be merciful.
Since entering Dayong, before the government was completely stable, the crown prince Mu Yanxu spent a lot of effort to start rectifying the imperial court, the former court officials, all those who were able to do things, those who stayed in their original positions, and those who were vegetarians, no matter what background they had, were all dismissed and returned home, and the powerful people of the previous dynasty, who did not violate the law and discipline, did not lose a penny, but once it was found out, they committed the heinous crimes, all of them were raided, the heads were beheaded, and the exiles were exiled, and their vigorous and resolute actions really scared most people.
The big families of all families also made him trouble, he has always been loose on the outside and tight on the inside, singing and dancing on the surface, but in fact, every household is very nervous.
Even Mu Yanzhao asked his eldest brother to command the group, and he was so busy that he couldn't spare time to visit his fiancée for a long time, Gu Anran was in the palace, although no one gave him anything important to do, but he was still busy and didn't have a chance to go home for several days.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just started to deal with the government affairs, and he showed a tough side, which made Gu Nan quite worried, and said to Mu Yanxu several times, let him act cautiously, it is not easy to be an emperor these days, not to mention the prince, if it is really killed, the court that has just stabilized may have another turmoil, and when the time comes, the Mu family does not know how much effort it will take to calm the situation!
Fortunately, Mu Yanxu is not a stupid person, his actions are still within the controllable range, even if his interests are damaged, it is not to the point of being unbearable. Mu Yanxu has never stepped on everyone's bottom line, nor did he want to step on it, he just took advantage of the current chaos to cut off the tumor, and it was the best time to just open the country, once this opportunity passed, everyone began to seek stability, and it was not so easy to remove the hidden dangers left by the previous dynasty.
Sure enough, in addition to killing chickens and monkeys at the beginning and tossing a few families who were indeed extremely evil, after that, His Royal Highness the Prince's methods became more and more tactful and gentle, and the government and the opposition gradually returned to calm.
In March, the government was on the right track, and Mu Yanzhao, who was canonized as the king of Ya, was also idle.
This guy is not happy to stay in his luxurious palace that was carefully selected by the prince's brother every day, and the location is the best, the closest to the palace, and the most spacious, but runs to the Gu family all day long.
Gu Anran felt the itchy taste of his teeth again, but Mu Yanzhao couldn't be messed with now, this became his top boss, and he was still a high-ranking prince, he didn't dare to yell at this guy in front of him no matter what: Don't run to our house if you're okay!
I can only slander myself secretly, His Royal Highness the Prince Ming Ming threw the household department and Dali Temple to him, at present, these two and the officials are the busiest yamen, how can he still have the time to take advantage of his baby sister!
In fact, at this time, there is no rule that unmarried couples are not allowed to meet, men and women are engaged, and the elders will take the initiative to give them a little opportunity to cultivate feelings, as long as they don't go too far, no one will gossip!
Gu Anran poked in the yard without any eyes, watching Mu Yanzhao and his own Wan'er talk more and more hot, I don't know what Mu Yanzhao said, as soon as Wan'er looked up, the smile like a flower was extremely bright, and Gu Anran's heart was not soft, and as soon as he softened, he saw that Mu Yanzhao actually stretched his paw to his precious sister's cheek, pinched it gently, and pinched it again!
Mu Yanzhao ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
