The layout of the natural painting is like a zigzag, surrounded by water. If you stand quietly and listen to the sound of flowing water, you will feel pure in your heart.
The place where she is standing now is a landscaped courtyard - the courtyard is square, and there is also curved water brought in from the outside. The water flows gently around a small rockery. Although the rockery is artificial, it is stacked
Delicately scattered and quite wild,
To the west of the rockery is a long flowerbed. The flowerbed covers an area larger than the rockery. The two ends are slightly bent towards the main house, forming a huge crescent shape. There are various flower seedlings planted in it. It is estimated that they were planted not many days ago.
The flower seedlings are all tender and tender green, which makes people feel pity when they look at them.
To the south of the rockery is a small pond - lotus flowers are planted in it, and there are more than a dozen small gray fish swimming under the lotus flowers. The water is extremely clear, and the landscape gravel at the bottom of the pond is unobstructed. Next to the small pond is
Two tall magnolia trees.
Looking to the north, a high wooden swing frame comes into view. Green vines cover the entire frame, forming a natural shade shed. It is the same size as the one in the east courtyard of Jingyang Palace.
The height is about the same. Because there are green leaves and vines on it, and the location, people sitting on the swing will not be exposed to the sun even in broad daylight.
Behind the trellis is a small bamboo forest, with deep bamboo shadows and overflowing fragrance.
In the entire courtyard, every three or four steps, a small palace lantern is placed on the ground. The palace lantern is in the shape of a lotus, with a bluestone base underneath for solid support and to ensure that the palace lantern will not fall down.
It's daytime now, so nothing can be seen. But at night, when the lights are on, it will be bright and beautiful. When people walk in it, they will feel like lotus flowers growing every step of the way.
Although these are small details, they all express her feelings - she likes them all!
At this time, Bixue took Qilin out of the small round dog cage.
Qilin lay on the ground.
Probably because he had been in the cage for a long time, he was a little listless at first.
Then it stood up slowly, opened its eyes wide and looked at the unfamiliar scenery around it, then tentatively walked to the rockery, stretched out its paws to fish out a tender flower seedling from the flower bed, and chewed a few mouthfuls.
Ji Ling walked forward, raised his head, and saw the main house.
The main room is deep, wide and bright, and several carved windows are covered with light bamboo-green gauze curtains, which flutter slightly in the wind.
Facing the main house, there are three wing rooms on the left and right sides, six in total. The wing room on the left (north) closest to the main house has a plaque hanging on it, and its name is very nice, called "Zhu Shen He Jing".
This wing also has the largest space.
The wing closest to the main house in the south is called "Quietly knowing that everything will be good in spring", which means "quietly knowing that everything will be good in spring, and the old world will taste familiar".
In addition, closest to the door, there is a long row of ear rooms - dining rooms!
Ji Ling walked into the main room. As soon as he entered, his eyes widened slightly - this courtyard looked simple and elegant from the outside, but unexpectedly it turned out to be extremely luxurious when he walked in.
Many of the furnishings are simply more exaggerated than Concubine Qi’s Changchun Palace!
Looking at this appearance, it is estimated that Yinzhen had a lot of good things brought to her and arranged them in an orderly manner.
Turning to the south, he entered the inner room. The interior was also beautifully furnished. Qixi stretched out his hand and touched the table gently. It was indeed spotless.
At this time, Xiao Fenzi and Xiao Yoko had already carried their suitcases into the main room.
Qixi took Bixue and opened the box - she was not in a hurry to pack anything else and took out the bed and other items she brought from Jingyang Palace first.
While she and Bixue were cleaning up, Ji Ling walked into the main room again and walked out.
It turns out that there is a small two-story pavilion at the back, with a plaque hanging on it with the three characters "Zhushao Pavilion" written on it.
Ji Ling walked in and saw that the pavilion was not as luxurious as the main house, but much simpler. At this time, the sunlight was just right, slanting in through the carved windows and shining on people.
Ji Ling ran to the second floor and opened the window. Outside, he faced a piece of clear water. There was a gentle breeze and the waves were calm. He could see the lush trees on the other side and smell the faint fragrance of lotus - Ji Ling thought it was his own courtyard.
The lotus flowers in the small pond were fragrant, but I didn’t think much about it.
The fragrance of lotus is elegant, mixed with the fragrance of bamboo and magnolia in the yard. The three smells are mixed together. It smells so good!
She was very energetic, with her hands behind her back, like an old cadre inspecting, and like a big mouse, scurrying around in the natural painting.
I can’t get enough of it!
Qilin was also very excited. He followed her, running forward and backward, running around the yard like crazy.
Over at Qixi, it was extremely busy.
When the sun tilted slightly, everything in the inner room was finally packed. The cushions, bedding, utensils, jewelry and hair accessories, as well as Ji Ling's pile of rouge and gouache, were all arranged according to the layout in Jingyang Palace.
Arranged carefully.
There were still things piled all over the floor in the main room.
Qixi put her hands on her hips and looked at the luggage on the ground - I really can't blame her, it would have been better if the emperor had left it alone.
If there is no arrangement, it will be like a blank piece of paper. She only needs to instruct people to arrange everything brought by Jingyang Palace. Uh.
But now that the emperor has arranged it, everything is equivalent to a reward from the emperor. You can't just push aside all the things that the emperor has rewarded, right?
Therefore, when placing them, it is inevitable that you have to use your brain a lot - as a result, the progress of tidying up will be slowed down.
With a grimace on her face, she went to report to her noble master.
After hearing this, Ji Ling tilted his head slightly and thought for a while, then simply said: "Except for the necessary things, the things we brought from Jingyang Palace are messy, so just don't pack them away! Put them all in boxes and let them go.
Xiao Fenzi and the others push it to the side room, remember to cover the box with a layer of cloth to prevent it from getting dusty, and we will do it slowly when we have time later."
Bixue was beside her. Her eyes widened when she heard this, and she looked at her master with an expression of "Is this okay?"
Xiao Fenzi and Xiao Yangzi were moving suitcases outside, and Xiao Dazi was not idle either - he had already gotten into the dining room and ordered the two handy eunuchs to light a fire and boil water.
There are two stoves for lighting the fire, one is for hot water for the master to wash his face and bathe, and the other is for hot water for cooking and making soup in the dining room.
The two stoves started burning at the same time, and the dining room was immediately hot.
Xiao Dazi wiped his sweat, took out the pots, pans, and spoons that he brought from the east courtyard of Jingyang Palace, and laid them out on the dining room table.
After the hot water was boiled, two handy eunuchs arrived at the door of the main room. Qixi and Bixue carried them in and helped Ji Ling take a comfortable bath, and then drank a bowl of Xiao Dazi's noodles.
After eating the noodles, she was really sleepy, so she lay down on the bed made by Qixi and took a nap - she didn't dare to sleep for too long because Yinzhen was coming over in the evening.
In only half an hour, Qixi pushed her awake.
The moment he opened his eyes and woke up, Ji Ling rubbed his eyes and vaguely thought he was in Jingyang Palace.
A summer breeze blew outside the curtain, carrying the faint fragrance of lotus, bamboo, and the cool smell of lake water.
