Huang Jue, after three marriages

Chapter 344 Strange Zhuangzi
The villa is built on the mountainside, and the way in from the outside only reaches the mouth of the valley.

There is a flat area opened up at the mouth of the valley for parking carriages and horses, and a row of wooden houses are built next to it for the guards and guards to rest.

The road in front of the villa winds its way up the mountain. The virgin forest on the side of the road has not been destroyed, and the huge tree trunks cover the path tightly.

It wasn't until it was above the mountainside that it suddenly became clear, revealing a building built along the mountain.

At the end of the mountain road, there is a gate that seems to be choking the throat of the mountain pass.

At this time the door was open, Bai Lu was waiting in front of the door, and when Xie Jue arrived at the door, she put a pair of wooden clogs on the ground, and then carefully waited for Su Yue to put them on.

Xie Jue adjusted the cloak on Su Yue's body, and took off the hood with a circle of mink fur on her head (it tickled him to death just now), then took her hand and walked across the threshold .

Inside the gate is a spacious small square paved with stone slabs. Four big trees are planted at four oblique angles. If it is summer, it will definitely be covered with shade, but at this time it is only desolate.

On both sides of the square are chaoshou verandas, leading to the first hall.

Su Yue looked at the hall and giggled unconsciously.

"What?" Xie Jue looked sideways at her, a little puzzled.

The jade steps and stone pillars in this hall, the sorghum painted walls, are built in an extremely majestic atmosphere. Although it has been abandoned for many years, it still has a faint dragon majesty.

Su Yue quickly stopped laughing, but her eyes turned around in the entire hall with more than 200 square meters, and then stopped on the two rows of chairs, she still couldn't help laughing.

This arrangement is similar to what I saw on TV in my previous life, the Juyitang in Water Margin.

"Huh?" Xie Jue simply stopped in his tracks, looked down at her, and raised his voice at the end.

This kind of self-sneaky joke...

Su Yue rolled her eyes, stomped her feet under his stare, and said, "I just think that this place looks like those thieves who are forming gangs and trying to figure out what to do. Look at that chair The way to put it, the one in the front is the big leader, the two on the left and right are the master and the second master, and the two rows below are the third master, the fourth master... or something."

Hearing what she said, and looking around in the direction her little finger pointed, Xie Jue frowned slightly.

It is indeed a bit strange!
The place is too big, it doesn't look like a resort lobby at all.

Moreover, if it is said that this is the place where the prince meets guests, the arrangement of the chairs is wrong. As a prince, if he can have a seat in front of the prince, he must meet in the study. Standing portion.

How could it be arranged in two long strips to show the way of playing without hierarchical distinction?

This appearance is a bit like what the generals of the army did before the big tent counted troops.

Xie Jue waved his hand, and asked the subordinate who arrived here first, and asked, "These chairs here were placed later?"

The subordinate shook his head and said: "No, it was here early in the morning. I have seen that these chairs are all made of sandalwood, and there is still the engraving of King Jin on the chair board below."

"So?" Xie Jue frowned unconsciously, and said to Tang Bing who was following behind, "Look carefully."

"Yes." Tang Bing didn't ask what he was looking for, but just beckoned to the dwarf and skinny guards, and led him to the corridor.

Xie Jue took Su Yue's hand and continued walking inside.

At the back of the hall is another stone-paved square, but it is much smaller than the front one, and the two sides are separated into wing rooms of more than ten square meters.

With the previous awareness, Xie Jue looked at these wing rooms again, and there was something different about them.

These rooms are like offices.

After the wing room, it is divided into three large rooms that are closed and used as study rooms. The passage passes from the left and right sides, and at the back, there are two small doors that can be locked.

After passing through the small gate, there is a promenade with steps. After walking for more than ten meters, there is a small garden full of flowers and trees, with four gates on all sides.

Xie Jue pushed open the door on the right.

Inside is an upright courtyard.

There are five main rooms, four side rooms, and a small garden with a big tree in the middle.

For a villa in this kind of primeval forest, it has to be said that it is really unimaginably exquisite and luxurious.

The furnishings in the room are relatively simple, except for the kang used as a bed and the kang used as a soft couch, there is only an old table and a faded antique shelf.

Mint and Bailu had already cleaned the house, laid thick bedding and fur on the kang, and placed incense pots to burn incense to remove the smell.

There are also some useful items on the table and curio shelf.

The suitcase filled with clothes was placed in the corner, and a pot of green narcissus was placed on it.

It is simple, but also reveals comfort and coziness.

Wandering around the room, Su Yue said: I am very satisfied!

Seeing her happy appearance, Xie Jue also felt joy in his heart, and said softly: "It's already cold now, if you like it, we can celebrate the New Year here, okay?"

Su Yue nodded and said, "Well, it's just that you need to prepare more meat and vegetables."

During the Chinese New Year, what is important is being with relatives. As long as they are together, this place is better than the capital.

Xie Jue raised his head and rubbed her head, and said, "I'm tired from the car ride, you can rest and have dinner later, go to bed early today, and the day after tomorrow, I will take you to Jinzhou City to play."

"Yeah." Su Yue nodded, and gave him a slight push: "Go do your own work, don't worry about me."

Xie Jue chuckled, glanced at Bai Lu and Mint, rubbed Su Yue's head again, and walked outside.

Standing at the door, Xie Jue's lips twitched slightly when he heard Su Yue's voice calling Mint what clothes to wear.

Then it got cold again.

Take big strides forward.

In the closed study room ahead, several people were waiting for him to come.

Xie Jue entered the room, first looked at the large desk placed by the window, and then glanced at the only two chairs in the room.

Then he sat down on one of the sheets and said, "Let's talk."

The steward who stayed in Jinzhou City glanced at the others, stepped forward and said: "My subordinates have already found out that the three largest fur shops and the two largest medicinal herb shops in Jinzhou City indeed belong to the Rong people." Everything is in the name of the Liu family, and the Dewang Building was also sold to the Rong man by the Liu family ten years ago."

Xie Jue smiled coldly and said, "What's the name of that Rong man?"

The woman handed over only one sentence: My husband's property has fallen into the hands of the Rong people.

According to what my subordinates knew, the woman's dead husband was a formidable figure, and at least [-]% of the fur business of medicinal materials in Jinzhou City was in his hands.

How can such a person who travels around the Rong country and the Northeast all the year round with those clansmen who have lost their family property in just a few years, harm him?
Sure enough!

The Narong people probably took advantage of the insidious thoughts of the tribesmen and took the opportunity to annex the man's family wealth and business lines.

It seems that the Rong people are not like what those people in the capital say, they only have force but not intelligence!
"I can't ask the specific name of the Narong man, but I occasionally heard the shopkeeper call him Lord Wild Donkey." The manager said in a low voice.

"Wild donkey?" Xie Jue snorted coldly and said, "Yelu!"

The surname of the Rong people's royal family.
