Chapter 127: Jinghua Garden

Into the eye, is a straight and wide straight road that can be used for four carriages in parallel, at the end of the straight road is a huge stone archway, on the carving of white marble, engraved with three big characters "Jinghua Garden", the inscription is not only inscribed with the date, but also the private seal of Emperor Yuan An gold seal, at a glance it is incomparably magnificent and atmospheric.

Under the high walls on both sides of the stone archway, there are white marble material stakes set up every short distance for visitors to park carriages and bolt horses, the stables dedicated to teachers and students in the school are not outside, in the inside, there are more than 300 stables with parking spaces, there are roofs, troughs and troughs under the roof, and the inner servants transferred from the palace are specially serving the horses.

After the atrium stable, there is a second gatehouse, and it is considered to officially enter the campus when you go in, but from here on, the carriage is not allowed to enter, the carriage stops, Fu Xuechen is quite impatient, follow Yu Zuo down, look into the gatehouse, only to feel that the green trees inside, the eaves of the pavilion are hidden in it, the beauty of the scenery is far better than Guozixue.

Fu Xuechen was secretly speechless, only thinking that the real campus of this garden covers an area of no less than two hundred acres, and one-third of it is still green, which is really too big! It feels like if it were replaced with a six- or seven-story building like a campus in the future, it could become a senior high school that could accommodate three to five thousand people.

"Are all the gentlemen already settled?" Fu Xuechen asked that in her and Princess Zhiling's planning, Jinghua Garden also has dormitories, not only dormitories, but also teachers' housing, all in the backyard.

Taking care of the students of the girls' school are all from a rich or noble background, the dormitories here are all suites for one person, divided into two compartments inside and outside, the inner room is for the master, and there are beds in the outer room, allowing each person to bring a maid to take care of the living life, but at the same time, the girls' school also allows students to go to school and live on campus, so far, whether there is anyone in these student dormitories to apply for residence is not known.

Gentlemen's dwellings are larger, one set is equivalent to two student dormitories, and female servants are allowed to live together, but in principle gentlemen are not allowed to employ more than four maids.

"Before the official opening of the park, all the handymen are currently temporarily living in the atrium stables, and no one is allowed in the park." Yu Zuo explained: "All the gentlemen who participate in the conversion of the old and new fonts of the texts need to come over every morning, concentrate in the outermost classroom of Zhiyuan Building, and leave the kindergarten in the evening. ”

"Can I take a look around first?" Fu Xuechen looked at Yu Zuo expectantly.

Yu Zuo smiled and nodded, he had long known that the other party would make such a request, and he had long been ready to accompany him.

Fu Xuechen was very happy, but also a little surprised, she thought that Yu Zuo would send Li Zhen out to be her tour guide, but she didn't expect Yu Zuo to go on in person, leading her to tour along the path as if she had visited the Royal Zoo at the beginning.

Li Zhen led Furong to follow dozens of steps away, this distance, basically can't hear the conversation between the two people in front of him too loudly, sometimes the line of sight is blocked, and even the figure has to be out of sight, fortunately, Li Zhen is already familiar with the path, and there is no one else in the garden, if you follow the path, you can't lose the master.

Fleur looked weird, looking at her young lady and the six princes walking side by side from a distance, chatting, as if there was no difference in status and status, just looking at the backs of the two, beautiful and harmonious like a painting, this ......

Looking sideways at the eunuch Li Zhen beside him, Li Zhen just habitually smiled humbly, and didn't say a word, as if he had long been accustomed to the actions of the two people in front of him.

No! Doesn't your master know that there is a difference between men and women? So close to my young lady!

Fleur is full of sorrow in her heart, do you want to tell Mrs. about this situation? But the other party is the prince, the prince who is accompanied by the prince! Besides, there is no one else in this garden...... That's not right! No one else can be informal?

Fu Xuechen didn't notice Furong's feelings at all, Yu Zuo is a qualified tour guide, listening to his explanation, like a spring breeze, walking with him, not slow, tired can also rest on the roadside stone bench, the degree of leisure is only a piece of ice cream.

After looking at all the facilities, Fu Xuechen is basically satisfied, not to mention the student dormitory, the gentlemen's apartments are even ready-made, and they can move in with their bags, as for the kitchen, it is a large public kitchen, and their own chef is responsible for the meal, of course, they do not refuse to borrow the stove to boil water and cook their own food, and the service is very perfect.

In addition, fresh rice grains, seasonings and dishes are purchased by the girls' school, and the gentlemen's treatment is equivalent to a small amount of money to buy food at market prices every day.

In terms of life, the only thing that is not very convenient is the use of water, there is a well in the school, there is a huge urn outside the house, this water can be used for washing, laundry, fire prevention, etc., this year the water is not particular, the well water can also be boiled and drunk, so many people use water, relying on the two wells in the school alone, but some are not enough, and they have to rely on the labor of the women to collect water every day.

Fu Xuechen raised his eyebrows, feeling that he could take out the design of the pressurized water pump to reduce the physical consumption of people in this era.

There is also the layout in the classroom, the gentlemen basically rely on lectures and reading, and when the students learn to write, they have to rely on the gentlemen to correct the past one by one, which is too cumbersome! The chalk should be made and a large blackboard should be placed in each classroom, which would greatly save the gentlemen's labor.

When Yu Zuo saw her thoughtful expression, he knew that she had a new idea, and couldn't help but smile and ask, "What's wrong?" But what omissions were found? If you say it, I invite you to come, and I am waiting for you to fill in the gaps. ”

The pressurized water pump was not in a hurry in advance, and Fu Xuechen first put forward the requirements for each classroom to be equipped with a blackboard: "...... About six feet high, the bottom is hip-high, can occupy ninety percent of the width of a wall in the room, fixed to the wall behind the podium, and the surface is painted with dark green chalk paint to make a uniform and smooth surface, easy to write and erase. ”

The paint ingredients for the blackboard are roughly lime water, calcium carbonate, etc., and the materials used to make chalk also need these things, but fortunately, these things are easy to find, and the price is not expensive, and you can get them out in a few days.

In Fu Xuechen's previous life, blackboards and chalk appeared in the early eighteenth century, and the current era is only the beginning of the seventeenth century, and she said that these things will be a full century earlier than in her previous life!

Yu Zuo looked at Fu Xuechen in a daze, that's it! That's what makes the difference! The girl in front of her seems to always have ideas that ordinary people can't think of at all, just like her grandfather, and Zhuge Liang in the script, with a frown, she can make some magical items, making others feel that their brains are rigid, and it seems that things that are not difficult to get are just unexpected!

"Chalk, blackboards, things haven't been made yet, but you've even got a name." Yu Zuo couldn't help but mutter.

"Huh?" Fu Xuechen blinked, where was her name! It's obviously something that she was used to seeing in her previous life, and it already has its name, so she naturally used it, so she got used to it! She can't be blamed for that!

Yu Zuo didn't ask much, but said: "The board of this blackboard is not difficult to get, there are twelve classrooms, and there are only twelve boards!" Tell me to go down, and the carpenter will be able to finish it all tomorrow, and it will be this dark green lacquer, and chalk ......."

"I'll give you a list of the materials you'll need and a rough idea of how to make them." Fu Xuechen thought for a while and said, "It's just that I don't know the specific amount of ingredients, so I have to let people actually try it to find out the formula with the best effect." ”

Yu Zuo agreed to her suggestion, as long as he knew what materials needed to be used and how to make them, he could easily find hundreds of craftsmen to try out the recipe in a short time.

There are still eleven days before the official opening of the park, and it is completely in time.

After visiting the entire Jinghua Garden, Yu Zuo brought Fu Xuechen back to the Zhiyuan Building, which was not far from the gate.

Zhiyuan Building is three stories high, the top floor is the attic, is a warehouse for stacking all kinds of books, the first floor, the second floor are a collection of books, this is a library, naturally according to Fu Xuechen and Princess Zhiling's vision, there are many tables and chairs added here, for teachers and students to borrow books and read at will.

In the lobby on the first floor, several tables and chairs that were originally scattered were gathered in the open space in the center to form a large square table, with a total of eight seats around it, and two people can sit side by side on each side.

The level of writing is high enough, and there are not many female gentlemen who can come over to help translate the scriptures, there are only six people in total, all of them are gentlemen who are responsible for teaching and learning calligraphy, and Zhu Jiuniang is among them.

Seeing Yu Zuo and Fu Xuechen coming in, the female gentlemen who were busy working hurriedly put down their workstations and got up, and respectfully saluted Yu Zuo.

Fu Xuechen also bowed with a bow, this is a disciple ceremony, but Yu Zuo is the director of the girls' school, and he is a noble prince, so he only nodded to the gentlemen and signaled that he would be exempted.

"This is the daughter of the Hou Mansion of Jingbei, Fu Xuechen, and she also assisted her brother in sorting out the new Chinese characters and is proficient in both the old and new characters, so I invited her to be a helper with all the gentlemen." Officially introduced.

Fu Xuechen said with a smile: "Xuechen is a junior, and he will also be a member of the girls' school in the future, and he is a disciple of the gentlemen. ”

"Miss Fu is polite!"

"Thank you, Your Highness Six! Thank you, Miss Fu! Several female gentlemen thanked each other.

Yu Zuo didn't stop, left Fu Xuechen behind, and left.

Zhu Jiuniang beckoned to Fu Xuechen, Fu Xuechen obediently came to her, Zhu Jiuniang put her arm around her shoulder, and said with a smile: "This is what I mentioned to you, my student......"

Then Zhu Jiuniang introduced the rest of the gentlemen to Fu Xuechen, because Zhu Jiuniang had already informed the others when she came that it would be Fu Xuechen who would come to help, and several gentlemen were already mentally prepared, and greeted Fu Xuechen kindly, showing the benevolent and kind demeanor of the elders.

In fact, not to mention that the few people here are all female celebrities with both ability and political integrity, just in the face of the dignified prince personally sending them, no one will snub Fu Xuechen, a little girl.

The chores of serving water and delivering tea have their own subordinates to do, and several gentlemen did not send Fu Xuechen, only Zhu Jiuniang handed over a copy of "Thousand Character Text" to Fu Xuechen for translation.

This era has the characteristics of education in this era, Fu Xuechen does not plan to try to subvert the tradition at the beginning, she just started work silently, how to make education on the path she hopes in the future, I will talk about it later.

After Li Zhen followed Yu Zuo away, Furong outside the door breathed a long sigh of relief, mixed with the little girls brought by the gentlemen outside, and took on the job of waiting for the master's call at any time, pouring tea and handing things.

It seems that the sixth prince is still very measured in his work, he really plans to let the young lady come over to help with the work, and he led the young lady to visit the garden before, probably to let the young lady get familiar with the place where he will study in the future, and the young lady can get along with him freely, all because the young lady once pretended to be the prince of the world as the other party's companion.

From this point of view, the sixth prince may not know the truth, he is so good to the young lady, most of it is still for the sake of the prince is his companion, and the young lady's talent can really help the gentlemen.

A stone fell to the ground in Fleur's heart, dispelling the idea of telling Madame in detail about this matter.

In the evening, the gentlemen finished some of the work at hand, pinched their wrists until they were sore, and began to retreat, preparing to go home to fill their stomachs and rest.

There is no awareness of overtime these years, and when it comes to the same school time as Guozixue, everyone consciously gets off work, and no one proposes to continue the liver, Fu Xuechen also obediently follows the crowd, thinking that this is very good, very healthy!

When they got outside, the gentlemen said goodbye to each other and left in their own carriages, and Fu Xuechen, as a junior, stayed downstairs according to the etiquette and became the last one to leave.

Before the two gentlemen who walked behind got into the car, they were curious to see that a tall and luxurious two-horse carriage was slowly coming and stopped in front of the door, this is the car of the six princes, right? The two gentlemen didn't think much about it, just when the six princes returned to the garden.

Only Fu Xuechen was extremely helpless, did the six princes really plan to personally pick her up and go to Jinghua Garden every day?

Sure enough, Li Zhen jumped down from the throne, put down his pedal again, and respectfully asked Fu Xuechen to go up, afraid that her feet would be unstable, and stretched out the back of his hand as a support point, so that Fu Xuechen could put his hand on the back of his hand and climb into the carriage with his strength, just like those nobles in the palace.

Fu Xuechen was as light as a swallow at the age, so he directly ignored Li Zhen's actions, and with two sensitive steps, he flashed to the wheel and lifted the curtain into the sedan car.

"Your Highness!" Fu Xuechen saw Yu Zuo sitting inside without any surprise, and after sitting down, he thought about it and tactfully put forward his opinion: "I still can't afford to pick up and drop off like you in person, it's too much!" It's true! ”

"Then I'll change to a car with an inconspicuous appearance tomorrow?" Yuzuo is funny.

Is this just about cars? You come to pick up and drop off in person, that's the biggest problem!! Fu Xuechen was speechless: "Your Highness! My Fu family also has a carriage! ”

"Why is my carriage bad? Don't you feel comfortable sitting? ”

Yu Zuo saw that Fu Xuechen's eyes widened and he was anxious, so he smiled and said, "Okay! I won't tease you, it's just today! Tomorrow, I'll ask Li Banban to go over and lead your coachman again, and then you will have to come by yourself. ”
