Chapter 359: Mixed into the main courtyard

There are a total of five or six courtyards, pavilions and pavilions in the City Lord's Mansion, and one of the tallest attics is at least a few floors high.

This era is nothing compared to modern times. For shops on the street, two or three floors are already the limit. Those who can design high-rise buildings are relatively well-known skilled craftsmen.

"That's the viewing pavilion in the mansion."

Seeing Li Haitang poking his head, the old lady was really ignorant, so she couldn't help introducing, "This is the tallest building in Surabaya. Standing on the top, you can overlook the entire city."

Below the pavilion is a cylindrical tower, which is also the Treasure Pavilion of the City Lord's Mansion, the Library Pavilion, which belongs to one of the forbidden places in the mansion.

"It's probably the first time you've come here, and you all have a long memory. You can't get half a step closer to the tower."

The old mammy stopped and stood in front of her with a serious face, otherwise, the result would be death, and it would be useless for anyone to intercede.

This matter is also related to a secret in the house.

A few years ago, the city lord had a favorite concubine, who was really as beautiful as a flower, more delicate than a flower, but rather brainless.

The women in the back house urged her to take a walk around the Treasure Pavilion. Only in this way could she show that she was a woman who was favored by the city lord.

When the concubine heard this, she nodded immediately. The city lord came to her every month and a half, and even if she made a mistake, he would forgive her.

The result was very tragic. When the city lord learned about it, he was furious and threw the man into the front yard for the servants and the city guards to play with, and finally he was played to death.

No one is an exception. Rather than die with such indignity, it is better to hit him head-on to death. At least he will not be tortured.

"Don't think I'm talking nonsense. Curiosity killed the cat. If anyone wants to go up and have a look, you can just jump off the viewing platform, and it's easy to fall to death."

After the old mama finished speaking, the dancers who yearned for the City Lord's Mansion immediately shivered. They thought about it just now when they heard that the City Lord liked to go there, but after hearing the following text, they immediately gave up.

Nothing is important, and if life is gone, is it possible to go to **** to enjoy happiness?

Besides, today is the Cold Clothes Festival, which itself is an evil day.

"Besides, there are also several forbidden areas in the back garden, don't run around."

The old nanny glanced around the crowd, pursed her lips, and her nasolabial folds deepened, "You should supervise each other, otherwise, whoever breaks the taboo, the rest will be jointly and severally responsible."

Li Haitang felt bitter, do you want to come here? Supervising each other, with more than a dozen pairs of eyes staring at her, it is even more difficult to do something.

Xiao Taohong in front heard this, but didn't turn her head back, she walked steadily with every step, as if she didn't take it seriously.

"Nurse, you are very knowledgeable, please tell us more!"

The one who spoke was called Hong Li, and she was the best-looking dancer except Xiao Taohong.

"Then I'll say a few more words."

After hearing this, the old mama nodded triumphantly. She glanced at Xiao Taohong thoughtfully. Such an appearance would definitely be favored by the city lord. If there is good luck, why not Let her have a good relationship.

As for the red carp's question, it was just incidental.

"Our city lord is filial. He gave up the main courtyard to the old lady, and brought his wife to live in the courtyard three times."

The old nanny spoke eloquently, introducing the situation of the City Lord's Mansion.

Li Haitang remembered every word and sentence in her heart. These were very important to her, very important.

The back garden of the mansion is between the third courtyard and the fourth courtyard, and the fourth courtyard is the main courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion.

Today, the old lady celebrates her birthday, so let's do it again.

These were the news that Liniang had received in advance, which was further confirmed today.

Go forward from the four-entry courtyard and pass through the back garden. On the north side of the back garden, there is a rockery.

The difficulty is that the Treasure Pavilion is on the other side of the back garden, and it is said that it is heavily guarded. She has to avoid many eyes and ears when she comes out of the tunnel.

"Mommy, what kind of woman does the city lord like?"

Red Carp has always been proud and conceited. She just passed the age of Ji this year. She was originally scheduled to be the lead dancer.

So what if she doesn't want to be the lead dancer, she has many ways to make the city lord like her.

"I am a servant, so I dare not jump to conclusions."

Even though Mammy said so, she looked at Xiao Taohong with appreciative eyes, she just liked it like this, with her lordosis and back curled up.

Li Haitang covered her face, Xiao Taohong had two big steamed buns tied to her chest, wouldn't they fall off when dancing?

No matter how beautiful she is, she still has a flat chest. The key is that she is still a pure man.

Seeing this subtle movement, Red Carp felt very indignant. She would never allow anyone to steal her limelight!

The city lord has just arrived in his thirties, and it is said that he is one of the most beautiful men in Sishui City, and there are many people who want to throw themselves into his arms.

Walking all the way, time passed quickly, and everyone bypassed the back garden and went straight to the main courtyard.

The mansion is decorated with lanterns and festoons, under the trees are fiery red flowers, and the maids and mothers-in-law are busy coming and going.

The corridor under the eaves is covered with a layer of white bricks, stepping on it, there is a little warmth.

"The old lady is afraid of the cold, we have buried flues underground."

The old mammy led everyone to a servant's room. There were tables, chairs and benches in the room, as well as tea, snacks and other snacks.

"It's still early, you just wait here and listen to the arrangement."

The house hadn't formally entertained the guests yet, so the old lady sent the man to the room and turned to leave.

The dancers rushed to seize the opportunity and squeezed to the side of the window, hoping to see the face of the city lord through the gap.

Everyone lives at the bottom, and no one knows the true face of the city lord, so they are very fanatical about it.

Don't want to climb high branches, do you want to be a dancer for a lifetime? In the end, when I get old, I can only be responsible for training newcomers.

If they work in this line of work, they will be tortured by injuries within a few years, and even become paralyzed and unable to get out of bed.

"Red carp, you rely on your good looks!"

A handsome dancer next to her was brutally pushed down, and she immediately became angry. You can't go too far, and before seeing the city lord, the red carp stepped on her sister to climb up.

"Honglian, you are right, I just rely on my good looks."

Hong Li lowered her head to play with her fingernails, and looked at Hong Lian contemptuously. She was so **** off that she was good-looking. Blame her?

"you…"

Hong Lian was so angry that she couldn't say anything, but she cursed Hong Carp's bad luck in her heart.

The dancers were undercurrents, and Li Haitang and Xiao Taohong were as stable as Mount Tai. They sat in the back row and looked at each other.

Just came to the main courtyard, from the fork in the back garden, just bypassed the rockery. However, Li Haitang had a more intuitive understanding of the layout of the mansion.

It's just that they don't know what treasure is hidden in the tower, so that the city lord attaches so much importance to it.

"What are you thinking?"

Seeing Li Haitang lowered her head and listless, Xiao Taohong encouraged her, "You don't have to think too much, it's not a big problem to go out of the city."

He was not sure, if he was alone, he could just climb the city wall. For Li Haitang, Xiao Taohong changed the original plan, just to get along more, maybe a quarter of an hour longer. The fate of people is always so wonderful, and all the things he doesn't believe are being confirmed one by one.
