Chapter 337: Pastoral Villa
The group walked for more than half an hour before they saw Shi Shouxin's farm in the mountains.
It's just a country cottage that is built majestic and vast, looking like a small city from a distance, and has built a high wall with corner towers at the four corners, and there are guards and guards on it.
Surrounded by thousands of acres of fertile fields, the crops are lush and green, and some tenants are busy in the fields.
In the distance, the mountains and forests are endless, and the foothills are planted with various fruit trees.
Not only is the scenery here pleasant, but the land is fertile and full of abundant harvest at a glance.
Yun Moxi poked his head out and looked at it, and couldn't help but praise: "This Wei Guogong will really enjoy it." Such a big mansion in the capital is not to live here. Looking at the scale here, it is no wonder that Wei Guogong is one of the richest people in the capital. ”
Zhao Ting said with a smile: "Since the imperial brother released the military power with a glass of wine and took back the rights of these heroes, this old brother has used the ability to lead soldiers to fight to collect money. Although he has no real power, he is highly respected, and there is an endless stream of people who ask him to do things, and they are willing to do it only after giving a lot of money to thank him. How can you not be rich with years of rewards?"
"It turns out that His Highness also knows!"
"The red kite has been handed over to me, and there is anything I don't know." He said proudly.
Yun Moxi raised his eyebrows, wanting to tease him deliberately, so he asked, "Then does Your Highness know the habits of this Duke of Weiguo?" ”
Seeing that she wanted to test herself, she said with a smile: "I heard that several song and dance studios in the capital are his industry, and they are all stunning beauties from the Western Regions, and their business is very good every day." You ask like this, could it be that he likes women? ”
"This Wei Guogong likes beauty but is not lustful." She wanted to sell it and deliberately didn't make it clear.
"What's the explanation?"
"Wei Guogong treats beautiful people differently, so he is always surrounded by beautiful people, but he only admires them and never lets them sleep. So far, except for the Duchess of Weiguo, there has been no concubine. ”
"That's weird. If it is said that he refuses to take a concubine because of his deep love for his wife, then why is he surrounded by countless beauties every day? ”
"That's because of fear of guilt!" Yun Moxi said with a smile.
"Fear of guilt? Speaking of this, it reminds me of a past incident. ”
"What?"
"In the past, in the army, Wei Guogong once went to the song and dance workshop in his spare time, but he didn't expect that Mrs. Shi knew about this and rushed into the Chinese army's tent to raise his sword in public to kill himself. Wei Guogong begged bitterly and finally knelt down to beg for mercy without caring about his face, and later it was the imperial brother who came forward to intercede, and Mrs. Shi was willing to give up. ”
"Duchess Wei Guo is really strong." She couldn't help but praise.
"Not only is she strong, she was also a woman when she was young. In his early years, he followed Wei Guogong to fight on the battlefield, and his martial arts skills saved his life many times, so when he got married, Wei Guogong swore in public that he would never live up to it in this life and would no longer take concubines. ”
Then it is not difficult to understand that although Wei Guogong is lustful, he does not dare to trespass. However, if a man keeps his oath like this, he must also be a lady who truly respects and loves him. ”
chatting and chatting has arrived at the gate of the villa.
A few of the family members ran over.
He Chong stepped forward and said a few words, some of the family members came to pull the horse, and some hurriedly ran in to report.
Zhao Ting helped Yun Moxi get out of the carriage, and as soon as he walked to the gate of the mansion, he heard a loud voice coming: "Rare guest...... Rare guests! ”
The two looked up, and a sturdy and tall middle-aged man walked into the house, with a red face and a maroon brocade robe.
Walking is like flying, striding and coming.
Zhao Ting hugged his fists and said: "It's good to defend the country's public security!" ”
"Oh my Highness! Don't dare to do this, torment me. Shi Shouxin strode forward and grabbed his arms.
"In the past, when the prince and the royal brother were married, the king was still young, otherwise he would have kowtowed and bloodied together, and it stands to reason that he should also be called a brother of the prince."
"Your Highness laughed, it was all old things, and now Your Majesty is Your Majesty. Monarchs and ministers are different, don't mention those things when you were young, don't mention it! Shi Shouxin laughed and shook his head as he spoke, but his heart was full of joy.
The most proud thing is to be reminded of the matter of worshipping the emperor back then.
"Yun Xi has seen Wei Guogong!" Yun Moxi stepped forward and gave a slight blessing.
Only then did Shi Shouxin see Yun Moxi on the side, and suddenly smiled and squinted, "Lord Yunxi is also here!" ”
Shicai was in a hurry to greet King Wei, but he didn't have time to see her.
At the palace banquet of the emperor's wedding, I naturally saw Yun Moxi, how could I forget such a beauty.
"Yun Xi heard that the scenery of this villa of Wei Guogong is very beautiful, and he was very envious, so he followed His Royal Highness King Wei to take a look."
"Who doesn't know that there must be His Royal Highness King Wei in this capital, where there is a Yunxi County Lord, hahaha......" looked at the two of them and laughed ambiguously.
Yun Moxi couldn't help but blush.
Zhao Ting looked at her with a smile and was glared at by her.
Shi Shouxin saw it in his eyes and thought that the two were flirting, pretending not to see it, and stretched out his hand and said, "Please two inside!" ”
"Please!"
led the two of them to the village together.
When you walk inside, you see that it is completely different from the idyllic scenery outside.
The houses and pavilions in the villa are built in a luxurious atmosphere, and the materials used are all of the best choices, which are extremely luxurious, and it can be seen that it was originally intended to build a splendid luxury manor, which is indeed very much in line with the style of Shi Shouxin.
However, Yun Moxi felt that some small arrangements and the matching of objects made the whole pattern much more elegant.
The various varieties of orchid bonsai in the special corridor and the main hall, the calligraphy and paintings on the walls, as well as the decoration of tables, chairs, screens and curtains, have all been deliberately designed and remodeled. It makes people feel refreshed and elegant, and it also makes the whole villa return to some of the elegance of the countryside.
It's like a painting that is too thick and colorful, after being embellished and decorated by a master's skillful hand, it becomes elegant and vulgar, not too thick and not too light.
This is not Shi Shouxin's style.
I can't help but wonder if it is from the hand of the legendary Duchess of Weiguo.
The main hall was built unusually tall, and as soon as the three of them sat down, a group of maids came in and served refreshments.
Each maid is beautiful and has a bewitching figure.
Two more people walked in with extremely delicate dresses, and their dresses were also unusually gorgeous and luxurious, and they walked straight to Shi Shouxin and sat down, leaning coquettishly on the side and waiting to pour tea and beat their legs.
Zhao Ting and Yun Moxi couldn't help but glance at each other, and smiled knowingly: the rumors are indeed true.
When the maids saw a noble and handsome man like Zhao Ting appear, they naturally couldn't help but peek.
"His Royal Highness and the Lord of Yunxi came to this poor and remote place, and they can only be grieved to use some rough food from the countryside."
Zhao Ting picked up the tea and sniffed it, and took a sip, "Wei Guogong is too humble...... It's a fairy life here, and this tea alone is the best, and it's rare to have such a good product in the palace. ”
"Your Highness is really well-informed." Shi Shouxin said proudly, "This tea is planted by my righteous daughter, the variety is extremely precious and rare, and it is extremely difficult to grow, and the annual output is not much. ”
Yun Moxi's heart moved when he heard this, and he asked: "The arrangement on the Guogong Mansion is very elegant, and the varieties of these orchids are rare and rare, and it takes a lot of effort to plant them. Could it be that the prince and his wife like orchids? ”
"Haha......" he laughed, "Madame and I are both rough people, and we only like to dance with guns and sticks, so how can we have the patience to grow orchids." ”
"That's ......"
