Along the way, everyone had their own thoughts and passed in harmony and peace on the surface. In mid-September, the chrysanthemums were in full bloom, and the Su family and his party arrived in Tongzhou.
They got off the boat first, took a bus from Tongzhou, and then made their way to Beijing.
The emperor had already made arrangements with the officials of the Ministry of Personnel, and asked the Minister of Rites and the Minister to personally greet Duke Su and send them to the new Duke's Mansion, which was located in an excellent location in the imperial city.
This mansion was originally occupied by a county prince, but because there was no legitimate son, the title was inherited by the concubine, and the rank was downgraded. After some things happened, he is no longer qualified to live there.
The emperor personally issued instructions to slightly modify the house, and then gave it to Su Guogong to live in.
The new Duke's Mansion is very large. There is a large courtyard with seven entrances in the middle. There is also a five-entry courtyard with a cross-courtyard on the east and west sides. There are also many gardens, side courtyards, etc., with flowers and trees, pavilions, rockeries and ponds.
, dizzying.
The Minister of Rites, together with a group of colleagues, welcomed Su Renyu into the Duke's Mansion. He did not stay long and congratulated him: "My Lord, I will return to the palace to answer my orders. You can sit down and rest for a while before going to the palace."
Thank you, I will have to entertain guests in the next few days."
Due to the new move, Su Renyu was still in a mess, so he didn't show much pretense. He thanked the guests, sent the guests away, and then asked several housekeepers to quickly clean up the house and distribute the furniture they brought one by one.
He first asked for the drawings, looked at them, and said to the old lady: "I invite my mother to live in this main courtyard."
The old lady smiled and said, "Why do I dominate the main courtyard? It's better for you, the prince, to live there. I live in the east, and I will leave the west to the young master. He will also get a wife in a few years."
Su Renyu agreed.
Su Renyu looked at it again, pointed to a courtyard with about ten rooms behind the west courtyard and said, "Let Yue'er live here."
Then he looked at Su Mo, smiled, and waved, "Girls, come and have a look. You can choose where you like to live."
The new Duke's Mansion has three gardens, the middle courtyard, the gardens on the east and west sides, and a large garden at the back.
There are several private courtyards in the large garden, which can accommodate several young ladies.
Su Xiner bit her lip and wanted to pick the biggest one first, but Su Renyu looked at the eldest lady and said, "Rou'er picks first."
