Lin Jiahui was afraid of killing Lin He, so she forced to death the noble old ladies who had been kidnapped by bandits years ago, and asked someone to tell Mrs. Lin that in order to prove that she did not want Lin He to be a concubine for Dongming Ziyu, she hurriedly

Lin He made an appointment to get married.

Within three days, Mrs. Lin had chosen a businessman's son-in-law as his legal wife for Lin He. Lin He embroidered the dowry at home and never left the house.

Shangguan Ruoli was relieved when he didn't get the news of Lin He's death the next day, and went with his family to see the new house given by the emperor.

Well, it's either new, it's either the property confiscated by the emperor, or it's the result of changes in officials.

The location is very good, very close to the Imperial Palace and the Hanlin Academy. In this location, there are officials around, every door is very grand, and even the atmosphere is a bit solemn.

Mrs. Qian opened the curtain of the carriage, looked left and right, with a sigh on her face.

Old Man Dong sat on the shaft of the carriage and drove the carriage, not daring to call out to the horses loudly.

Dongming Ziyu rode in front, turned into Maoer Alley, and stopped in front of the courtyard gate of the second house.

Before he could knock on the door, the door opened, and an old man who was almost sixty years old came out with a stooped waist. When he saw Dongming Ziyu's appearance, he saluted and said: "Old slave, Daniel, give your regards to the champion!"

On the day when the number one scholar was praised in the street, he also went to watch the excitement. His appearance and demeanor were unforgettable.

Dongming Ziyu turned over and dismounted, stretched out his hand to help him, and said: "Excuse me, are you the person who looks after this house?"

Da Niu said: "Yes."

Dongming Ziyu took out the document and showed it to him, saying: "The emperor has rewarded this house to me."

Daniel was illiterate, so he knelt down and said, "Old slave, pay homage to your lord."

Old Man Dong came over and helped him up, "Take us in and have a look."

Dongming Ziyu introduced: "This is my father."

Then he introduced other people, "This is my mother, my wife, my eldest son, my eldest mistress, my fourth daughter, and my fifth son."

Danniu saw the ceremony one by one and went to unload the threshold. Mint went to help, and Dalang drove the carriage in.

Behind the entrance hall is a screen wall, the landscape paintings on it are mottled.

Turning around the screen wall, there is a neat courtyard with six main rooms, six wing rooms in the east and west, and four wing rooms and a pavilion outside.

The houses are only half-new, with no flowers or trees planted, and only a few potted pine trees placed in front of the door. It can be seen that the original owner must be very old-fashioned and serious.

But Mrs. Qian praised it: "Good! This house is big and the yard is clean and flat. Look at the bluestone brick floor, how good it is for drying food."

Shangguan Ruoli: "..."

Dongming Ziyu said: "You have to plant some flowers and plants to make them look nice."

There are moon gates on the left and right leading to the east and west side courtyards, each of which is a small courtyard with two entrances.

The two-entry courtyard at the back has the same layout. The courtyard and the houses are very grand and spacious, much larger than the courtyard we live in now. It is a three-entry house.

"Good!" Old Man Dong praised: "After all, it is a house given by the emperor. If nothing else, it is big enough! Spacious enough!"

Dalang said: "There is a lot of money in the capital, especially the area close to the palace. Such a big house is rare!"

Daniel smiled and said: "Master, there is a garden behind the yard."

With that said, he opened the backyard door and let everyone in.

Wulang said happily: "There is really a garden, which is bigger than the garden in the yard where we live now."

Mrs. Qian was instantly attracted by the scenery of the garden. Two green bamboos and a gravel path were winding, giving people the feeling of a winding path leading to a quiet place.

Everyone walked along the path, and suddenly they saw rockeries, flowing water, exotic flowers and plants, small bridges and pavilions, which were unique and exquisite.

Shangguan Ruoli said with a smile: "There is a house with such a big garden in this area, and the treatment is comparable to that of a second-rank official. It shows that the emperor values ​​you very much."
