Three days later, Ruan Zun and Ling Zhen stood in front of a vast luxury mansion, looking at the vermilion gate, the cornices and arched walls, and the endless luxury style, both of them were dumbfounded.

A large number of craftsmen are still busy, and four craftsmen are taking off the huge "Xinwangfu" plaque on the gatehouse, and then hanging a large plaque of "Nguyen Mansion".

"It's too much, this is a palace!" Ling Zhen's eyes widened, "This belongs to the young master?"

Tong Guan nodded and said: "Yes, this was originally the mansion of a prince in the Northern Han Kingdom at the beginning of the founding of the country. Don't look a little shabby, the princes and nobles in the capital have broken their heads and want to get their hands on them, but His Majesty has not let go. Now that it has been given to you, that is a great grace. ”

Ruan Zun knew that this was an exceptional reward from the emperor for himself and Ling Zhen to develop new firearms. In the capital like this, a large mansion covering an area of 1,000 acres is difficult to reward without the merit of protecting the country.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. Ruan Zun also felt a little embarrassed, "As a subordinate of the Young Army, I am the commander of a battalion, and this house is much more generous than the house of Master Wen, who is the commander of the Young Army." ”

"Two adults, come in with me and have a look. Tong Guan had obviously been here once, and he was familiar with taking them in to visit. A group of Ouchi strong guards followed the front and rear to protect their safety.

The layout of the courtyard of this palace is very grand, and even far exceeds the regulations that a prince's mansion should have. It may be that Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty, pretended to make a gesture in order to appease the hearts of the Northern Han people.

Many of the houses in the yard are a bit old, but after the renovation in the past three days, many places have been renovated and revitalized. There are also many craftsmen who are nervously rushing to repair the repairs.

Fortunately, with this house and his own Fengyun Society, he can be regarded as having a base in Beijing.

"The three days given by His Majesty are only enough to renovate some residences and other places, and if you want to renovate the entire palace, whether it is money or manpower, it is not enough. Tong Guan said, "Lord Ruan is more responsible, now the imperial court is using troops everywhere, internal and external turmoil, and the use of silver and grain is really tight." ”

"It's all right, just have a place to stay. What's more, if I live in the barracks for a long time, this mansion will only be an ornament. "Ruan Zun said that he understood, it is already good to be able to give himself such a big mansion in the capital, and you still expect the emperor to spend money to help you repair it?

"Heavenly family majesty, how can it be said to be an ornament?" Tong Guan said, "Your Majesty also ordered Ouchi to transfer sixteen powerhouses of the Spirit Venerable Realm to guard this place in shifts, with both open and dark sentinels. Moreover, it is said that under Lord Ruan's own hands, there are also some strong players, such as the flying Yaksha Qiu Xiaoyi who appeared on the school field that day. He looked around, "That guy, it's not going to be ambushed somewhere around right now, is it?"

"Who knows. Ruan Zun said.

Tong Guan took them to the center of the courtyard, where there was a small garden, rockery ponds, and exotic flowers. Turning around a corridor on the pool, I came to several wings. There, four or five maids went in and out, packing up their clothes and bedding.

"That's the accommodation, it's been cleaned up and tidy. As for other places, the craftsmen are slowly picking up, and it is estimated that it will take ten days and half a month, and it will be like a decent one. ”

"It's bothering the child. Ruan Zun said.

"It doesn't matter, this is not only the meaning of His Majesty the Emperor and the imperial court, but also the meaning of the sect leader. Seeing Ling Zhen watching the koi in the pond on the side, Tong Guan lowered his voice, "The sect leader still remembers you Lord Ruan. ”

The Heavenly Dao Sect Master still remembers himself...... Ruan Zun thought depressedly.

"The sect leader has been instructed by Master Chen, and you have indeed been concerned about Lord Ruan. Tong Guan continued to whisper, "He said that he really wanted to see how far you could go and what realm you could go in the Song Kingdom, with many adventures." ”

"Thank you for your concern. Ruan Zun smiled bitterly.

"Don't forget, destroy my Holy Sect's Erlong Mountain Heart Washing Pool, you owe us. Tong Guan said.

Ruan Zun snorted coldly and did not defend this matter.

When you enter the wing, you can see that it has indeed been neatly arranged and well organized by the servants. In addition, there are some side chambers for servants.

"The palace was afraid that Lord Ruan had just arrived and many things could not be handled, so he specially dispatched ten servants and ten palace maids for dispatch. Tong Guan pointed to the maids and handymen and said.

"These maids and servants are not needed, and the boy should take them back. Ruan Zun said, "My Fengyun Inn has a youth camp in Shinshu, and there are many orphaned children in it, and they can come and do these jobs and make a living." ”

Tong Guan said with a smile: "It's Lord Ruan's business to bring any servants himself, and these people sent from the palace must still be in the palace." Moreover, their wages do not have to be paid by the government, and they have their own money from the palace. ”

"Why?" Ruan Zunqi said, "I have been lonely since I was a child, and I really can't stand the waiting of others, and I can't see others waiting for me. These people, don't you still can't do it?"

"Naturally, no. Tong Guan said, "Not only in your mansion, but also in many high-ranking officials and princes' mansions, there are these servants sent from the palace. Do you know why?"

Ruan Zun suddenly turned out to be a political issue.

Those high-ranking officials have the eyes and ears of the palace, and those who have mastered the new firearms themselves must have the eyes and ears of the palace in the palace. Their presence, to a certain extent, can also reassure the imperial court.

In that case, let's stay.

After shaking around with Ruan Zun and familiarizing himself with the general situation in the house, Tong Guan took his leave.

Sixteen powerhouses of the Spirit Venerable Realm in the palace guarded the sentry posts in various places in the palace. Twenty maids and servants are responsible for the food and living of Ruan Zun and Ling Zhen and others.

The main wing room is Ruan Zun's residence, and there is also a servant's residence, which has been set up. In the evening, Qiu Xiaoyi and Ou Peng also arrived. Although Ling Zhen also had a share in the reward of this house, he insisted on serving him as a servant, and did not want to live in the main wing, but wanted to live in the side room.

"Ling Zhen's life, as well as his reputation, were all given by the young master. Ling Zhen had already sworn a bloody oath in front of the young master and joined the Fengyun Society. The young master will always be Ling Zhen's master. The master is in front, how dare his subordinates trespass. ”

Hearing him say this, Ruan Zun was not reluctant. After all, if you set up the Fengyun Society, you still have to have a difference between dignity and inferiority. Without humility, it is difficult to enforce prohibitions.

"From now on, this mansion is the base camp of our Fengyun Society in Beijing. Ruan Zun said to them, "The forces of Xinzhou and Qingzhou must gradually transfer here. In a few days, I will go to Taolin Town, Qingzhou, to handle some settlements, which is now my fiefdom. I will deploy it as soon as possible, so that the strength of our Fengyun Society can grow rapidly!"
