Chapter 551: What Exactly Is The Secret Here?
Cang Jiuyao couldn't help but glance at the three words of Zixi Building again, and said in his heart that it was just a matter of staying for two or three days, and it was a big deal to let King Li change the guest room for him tomorrow.
Thinking so, he followed the maid into the garden.
Entering the Moon Gate, walking slowly along a cobblestone paved stone road, there are various trees planted on both sides of the path, carefully looking at the shape of carefully trimmed, jagged wild but not annoying, walking through this section of the stone road, the eyes suddenly opened, a three-story small building appeared in front of you.
In this era, small buildings were generally only two floors, and there were rarely buildings with more than two floors, except in the form of a tower building of Jongmyo Temple.
The small building is three stories high, I don't know what kind of wood is built, emitting a dark red sense of heaviness, and the small building is carved with various auspicious cloud totems under the eaves of the house, many Cang Jiuyao can not see what the pattern is, it seems to be a unique totem of this Qiang country, but it is undoubtedly exquisite and gorgeous.
The tall three-story building, from top to bottom, even the pillars of the cloister are carved with delicate totems, and the cloister is painted with exquisite and colorful paintings, which can be seen that even every corner of this small building is carefully designed and built.
No wonder this is not a particularly large building, but it took the best craftsmen of the Qiang country several years to build, and it must have taken a year and a half to take shape for such a delicately carved totem and painting at that time.
The maid saw Cang Jiuyao from the side, and the smile on her face never disappeared, she saw Cang Jiuyao looking at the subtlety and delicacy of this small building, and said to Cang Jiuyao with a smile: "The slave maid is also thanks to the girl's blessing to be fortunate to be able to come to this Zixi Building to see it." ”
Cang Jiuyao didn't understand the meaning of the maid's words for a while.
The maid smiled and explained, "Although this Zixi Tower has been built for several years, since it was built, no one has entered this garden except His Highness. ”
"Why?" Cang Jiuyao was even more puzzled.
The maid shook her head: "The slave and maid don't know, they only know that this Zixi Building is a forbidden place in the house, and everyone knows that this Zixi Building is exquisite everywhere, but His Royal Highness ordered early that no one is allowed to step into half a step, and on weekdays, only a deaf and dumb old servant in the house comes to clean it every day and leaves." ”
Cang Jiuyao felt more and more that this Zixi Building was strange, although it was indeed exquisite and beautiful, but it was not so noble that no one was allowed to step into half a step, right?
"Then do you know why His Highness built this Zixi Tower in the first place, and why he didn't live after it was built?" Cang Jiuyao asked the maid.
"This slave and maid are not clear, before the slave and maid entered the house, this Zixi Tower had already been built." The maidservant replied.
Cang Jiuyao saw that she couldn't ask any valuable clues from her mouth, so she didn't say anything more.
It's just that after listening to so many things about this Zixi Building, Cang Jiuyao feels more and more that there is a mystery inside and outside this Zixi Building.
At the same time, curiosity is troubled, and I want to know what is so strange about this Zixi Tower, or in other words, what special significance does this Zixi Tower have to King Li, and why does he let himself live here.
Cang Jiuyao followed the maid and maid into the small building.
The decoration and furnishings in this building are also consistent with the style outside, which is exquisite but not exaggerated, and belongs to the kind of low-key luxury.
The two looked for the stairs and slowly went up to the second floor, and the maid introduced: "The first floor is the hall, and the second floor is the study and painting room. ”
