Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 273 The Li family moved into the county government (3)
When the people heard that the famous Mr. Crouching Tiger, who made the Xiongnu frightened, and managed the Northland as safe as an iron bucket in the past few years, they all gave a thumbs up and said it was a good thing.

Unconsciously, it has entered the early summer of May, and the annual Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon.

He Dong in the palace is having an early court meeting with civil and military officials, discussing state affairs.

He Huishu is giving lessons to the twins and teaching the younger son to practice calligraphy.

Everyone in the Li family in Chang'an, with their own minds, entered the capital city through the Anhua Gate, a side gate in the south, in a very low-key way, and directly moved into the county government's mansion without even setting off firecrackers.

Qin Yue walked up to He Yiyang, clasped his fists in salute, and said respectfully: "Seventh Prince, Your Majesty has ordered you to follow me into the palace."

He Yiyang said in his heart: I thought the faint king had forgotten me.He waved his hand and said, "I'm tired, so I won't go today."

Qin Yue showed a look of embarrassment, and said: "Your Highness, don't make it difficult for you to step down."

"Is there still room for me in the palace? What difference does it make to them whether I go back or not?" He Yiyang looked at Qin Yue firmly, and said, "Uncle Qin, you told them what I said."

Li Yunxiao came over and asked, "What's the matter, what's the matter?"

He Yiyang shook his head and smiled, "How can there be anything?"

Qin Yue had no choice but to leave with the imperial army and return to the palace to return.He and He Huishu's small home is not far away, but they have to go to the palace before they can go home.

"Xiao Linzi and the four of them are very familiar with the terrain of Chang'an. Let them lead the way, let's go to Chang'an Avenue with my little uncle?" He Yiyang watched the Imperial Forest Army disappear, and his mood suddenly improved. Living in Li's mansion is not as free as going back to the palace many.

Li Yunxiao had this intention and immediately told Li Qubing.

"Just go to Chang'an Academy." Li Qubing's face turned reddish.

The last time he came to Chang'an to express condolences, he came and went in such a hurry that he didn't bother to go to Chang'an Academy.Besides, his second uncle, Di Yujie, is in Chang'an Academy.

Li Yunxiao's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "I have a good friend, Niu Haoxing, who is in Chang'an Academy, and his grandfather is the vice president of the academy. Let's go to see my master first, and then go to him."

The three teenagers were afraid of disagreeing with Qu Shi and He Shi, so they greeted Li Laoshi and quietly rode away from the west gate.

The imperial court stipulated that all officials entering Chang'an from other places, even princes, must register with the Ministry of Officials immediately for whatever reason.

He Huishu's letter specifically mentioned this before.Li Laoshi went to report to the Ministry of Officials not far from the mansion in order not to lose his reputation.

Li Li and Li Bei went to the county mansion a few days earlier than the Li family, and they had already arranged it according to He Shi's instructions, and they directly asked the servants to unload the luggage and put it in the courtyards.

The He family was busy arranging for his family, and he didn't care about the twins.

Seeing that the new home is much smaller than the one in Tanzhou, Qu's family has no lake or attic, and even the two gardens are extremely small, which is very surprising.

Li Bingming has been promoted, why is his mansion so much smaller?

Because Qu Shi had been instructed by He Shi in advance, he kept silent and just observed carefully. When he entered the hall and then went to the bedroom, he found that the furniture was all made of very precious red sandalwood, which was much stronger than the mahogany in Tanzhou's house.

Qu's doesn't understand antique calligraphy and painting, and he can't see that the hundreds of objects in the mansion are all treasures with a history of hundreds of years.

Qu Duo and Xiao Deng took their two sons, and followed Qu's eyes timidly in the room where wealth was everywhere.

They originally thought that they could stay in Li's house for a few days, so that they would not have to meet the Ding mother and son who had already arrived in Chang'an.

But the Li family is so rich, they are afraid that they will be reluctant to leave after staying for a few days.

Li Li deliberately came over and asked: "Old Madam, Qu's Mansion is in the north of the capital city, eight miles away from our mansion. Do you think this is sending Young Master Qu and Young Madam Deng there?"

The Qu family was about to say that they would stay with the Qu Duo family in the county government for a few days, when the seven-year-old Qu Guangyao said, "I want to go home."

Six-year-old Qu Guangzu also tugged on Qu Duo's sleeve and said in a low voice, "I want to go home."

Qu Shi thought that there would be a lot of congratulatory guests in the Tianfu that He Shi said, and there were too many and chaotic people, so he said: "Then send them over."

Qu Duo and his wife expressed gratitude: "Thank you, aunt and family, for taking care of us along the way."

Qu's and He's had a lot of reasoning with Xiao Deng along the way, and Li Laoshi also told Qu more about how to behave.

Qu Duo and his wife are sincerely grateful to the Li family.

Li Li ordered two servants to drive the carriage to send Qu Duo's family back.

Everything in the mansion is arranged by the He family, and Li Jingjing took her very excited twin brother for a stroll around the mansion to get acquainted with the new home.

In the past, the home in Tanzhou Prefecture had to take a sedan chair from the south gate to the north gate, but now the area of ​​the new home is only [-]% of the family in Tanzhou Prefecture, so there is no need to take a sedan chair.

The new house has three gates, south, north and west. The south gate is the main entrance, and the north and west are side gates.Because the east wall faces the imperial palace, no gates can be set up.

She deliberately looked at the two gardens, each with an area of ​​[-] square meters, which can only be called a flower garden, where peonies, roses, and camellias are planted. There is no need to plant herbs in this space, it is better to grow flowers and plants.

She lamented that every inch of land in Chang'an was expensive, and the house became smaller, and she was not used to it for a while.

Li Yunfei raised his small head and asked: "Sister, didn't you want to set off firecrackers, dance dragons and lions when you moved to a new house? Why don't we have any in our house?"

He Jiye was thinking about this question with his little head, and looked up at Li Jingjing.

"You're talking about local customs. Now our mansion is less than two miles away from the imperial palace. According to the laws of the Chang'an capital, firecrackers are not allowed to be set off within two miles of the imperial palace during early courts and national mourning periods. Violators will be fined a thousand taels of silver." Li Jingjing also agreed. I only learned about this from He Shi yesterday.

Those who want to see the jokes of the Li family are probably still disappointed that they didn't hear the sound of firecrackers, and they didn't see Chang'an Changshi sent yamen servants to the Li family to fine them money.

He Jiye's rosy lips parted slightly, and he said softly: "So our family and the emperor are neighbors."

"Almost." Li Jingjing nodded.Xin said: To be the emperor's neighbor is an honorable thing for outsiders to see, but in reality it is not a good thing.From now on, our family will depend on whether the emperor is in a good mood or not, even if we marry a guest and set off firecrackers.

He Jiye gestured with his hands, and said regretfully: "Sister, our house has no buildings."

Li Jingjing looked around, not only was there no attic, but even the surrounding walls were much shorter than the Tanzhou mansion, not only the Li family, but also the neighboring mansions, which further set off the towering and inviolable imperial palace in the distance.

Two middle-aged servants with unfamiliar faces walked over quickly, and saluted very skillfully.

The older servants said: "Miss, two young masters, more than a dozen distinguished guests have come to the residence, the eldest master and eldest madam invite you to the reception hall in the main courtyard."

Li Yunfei asked solemnly like a little adult: "We have guests coming to our house so soon, who are they?"
