Ying Yue carefully observed the drawings of this mansion, a rectangular courtyard, a large courtyard with a small courtyard, the middle road, the east road, and the west road, neatly and neatly, nothing outstanding - no way, the prince's mansion has specific specifications, and there are not too many tricks. Only the back garden can be played freely.

A small stream was drawn from the west side of the mansion, and a half-moon-shaped lake was dug out in the garden, and a bridge was built over the lake, and there were water pavilions, water pavilions, and hand-copying verandahs by the lake, and the willows were still there, and the scenery was pleasant when you thought about it.

"Huh? This lot is...... Is it on the seaside of Shicha?! Ying Yue showed a look of surprise, this stream was obviously led from Shichahai!

Yongying smiled and nodded: "Yes, the lord's mansion is built in the north of Shichahai, and when you come out of the back door, you can go boating on Shichahai." ”

Ying Yue sighed in her heart, the area of 40,000 or 50,000 square meters on the shore of Shicha in old Beijing is in modern times, and I don't know what a sky-high price it should be. But now, the huge manor that will be completed in the future will all belong to Yongzhen!

Moreover, Yongying doesn't even need to pay a copper, the Ministry of Internal Affairs directly allocates 200,000 taels of silver to build the house, and the Shuntian Mansion is responsible for the corresponding demolition and settlement matters, and the Construction Department and the Ministry of Industry jointly preside over the construction and decoration.

"Why is there a vacant lot next to it?" Ying Yue was a little puzzled.

Yong Ying said lightly: "Oh, although the master is only a bald brother now, but he will be knighted and promoted in the future, so naturally he must set aside the territory for future expansion." ”

Ying Yue suddenly realized, "The Internal Affairs Office is quite thoughtfully prepared. ”

Yong Ying snorted, "I don't know how many times the Internal Affairs Office has organized such a thing as opening a mansion and building teeth, but it's just a step-by-step process!" If they can't even do that—well, unless they're deliberately slight! ”

Ying Yue smiled and quipped: "Who dares to despise our eleventh master!" ”

Yong Ying smiled, pointed to a courtyard on the middle road and said, "This is your main courtyard, do you still like it?" ”

Ying Yue tilted her head and looked at it for a while, boxy, located in the third entrance of the middle road, very spacious, but nothing special, there are three main halls, and there is an independent small Xuanzi on each side of the main hall.

"It's okay, the yard is a little empty." Ying Yue said.

Yong Ying hurriedly smiled and added two flower beds in front of the main hall of the main courtyard, "Would it be good to plant two pomegranate trees in it?" ”

"Pomegranate...... Why grow pomegranates? Ying Yue asked.

Yongxingxing's eyes were full of hope, "A thousand rooms are the same membrane, and a thousand sons are the same." Pomegranate means many sons and many blessings. ”

Ying Yue was stunned...... Before marriage, Yongying threatened to give birth to six or seven sons, the ancients were all looking forward to having more children and grandchildren.

Ying Yue's cheeks flushed slightly, and she hurriedly said: "Pomegranate flowers are in full swing, but it's a pity that the flowering period is a little shorter." ”

Yong Ying smiled warmly, "Well, the pomegranate is not atmospheric after all, and a few more peonies need to be added to the flower bed. ”

Peony is a very delicate flower and tree, the more years are enough, the lower the survival rate of transplanting, and the more expensive it is naturally consumed.

However, anyway, His Majesty Qianlong spent a full 200,000 taels of silver for the opening of the mansion, which should be enough to squander, right?

Yongying seemed to be in a very good mood, and couldn't help but talk eloquently: "There is also this back garden, just behind your yard, just behind your yard, a Sanyou Pavilion is built on the east side of Half Moon Lake, and podocarpus, purple bamboo and plum blossoms are planted around it to meet the scene." And here, the master plans to build a theater building...... Here to build a few rockeries with Taihu Lake stone, here to plant some Xifu begonias and purple sand magnolias, here ......"

After listening to Yongying's introduction one by one, Ying Yue secretly said: "If you continue to build like this, is 200,000 taels of Kaifu silver enough?" ”

Yongying grinned and sneered: "As long as the Internal Affairs Office is not corrupt, it is definitely enough!" ”

Yingyue: ...... Is it possible that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is not corrupt at all?

The Construction Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is responsible for the construction of the palace for the royal repair, so it is also called the "Ministry of Internal Affairs", and the Construction Department is headed by Langzhong, and the official residence is from the third grade, which is directly under the command of the Minister of Internal Affairs.

"I seem to remember that Jiang Hanyu and her father are one of the directors of the Construction Division...... Yingyue muttered.

Yong Ying said lightly: "It's just the commissioner of the seven products." ”

"Oh." Just a seven-grade commissioner, he can often send silver to the daughter in the palace, which shows that there is a lot of oil and water, and the director above the commissioner, the outsider and even Langzhong, I am afraid that my mouth will be full of oil.

It's no wonder if you don't embezzle.

Yingyue can have a hunch that there will definitely be a good show to watch in the future~~

"Who's in the construction division?" Ying Yue asked casually.

Yong Ying snorted coldly: "Yang Fangtai! ”

"Oh." I don't know.

Yong Ying smiled and said: "These families of the Internal Affairs Office, because of many years of marriage, are also very intertwined. This Yang Fangtai's aunt is the mother of Concubine Ling! ”

Ying Yue suddenly realized that she was Concubine Ling's cousin in this construction division!

Now the Wei family's power in the Internal Affairs Office does not seem to be conspicuous, only Ling Guifei's brother has held an official position in the Internal Affairs Office. But in fact, the Wei family has countless in-laws in the Internal Affairs Mansion, so they can compete with the queen in the Inner Palace.

Although these internal affairs families are just some coats, they are also the emperor's coats, and they are not something that others can easily move! Unless it is instructed by the emperor, no one dares to meddle in the internal affairs of the royal family casually!

So at the beginning, Ying Yue could only attack Shun Concubine's mother's family, but she was helpless against the Wei family, not because the Wei family was difficult, but because she was afraid of provoking the dissatisfaction of His Majesty Qianlong, and the gains outweighed the losses.

"Although the Ministry of Internal Affairs has been rectified once, it is a pity that there is a great tendency to resurrect it now." Ying Yue said in a deep voice.

Yong Liang said coolly: "It's almost time to give those dog minions some color!" Hum! ”

Ying Yue was silent, Yong Ying is this with the Ministry of Internal Affairs? ? It seems that your uncle is also an official of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, although the Jin family has now raised the flag and become the Jin Jia family, but Yong Ying's own uncle has been an official in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and now it seems that he is also a three-rank Langzhong.

In other words, Yongying's relatives and relatives have never seen any of them, mainly because they have been living in the inner palace, which is inconvenient, and secondly, Yongying's uncle died a few years ago, so he can't send a concubine to see her, right?

"That's right." As if he had a heart, Yong Ying said to her, "That...... My uncle is going to marry his stepfamily at the end of the year, and when he gets past the door, he will hand a sign into the palace to kowtow to you. ”

Don't look at this as an elder, you really have to kowtow when you see his nephew and daughter-in-law.

Ying Yue looked at Yong Ying curiously, and asked with a smile: "Which family is your future aunt?" ”
