Yan Liben said: "Xue Jun Gong was granted the title yesterday. Although he received the canonization document, his formal dress and official robe were not accepted, and the guard of honor and guards were not returned to his position. After the banquet yesterday, the king of Qin admonished the sage that Xue Jun Gong had grown up in a foreign country since he was young. He wanted to come here with different clothes, food, housing and transportation. The sage has given the land and house to make his home comfortable. How to arrange the residence? Ask Xue Jun Gong for his opinion. If the layout of the house is similar to that of Xue Jun Gong, he would feel like returning home. Therefore, the sage ordered me to accompany Xue Jun Gong to the imperial residence to see if there was any need for improvement. Although Xue Jun Gong said clearly, I would try my best to do it. "
When Xue Lang heard this, he was very moved. He bowed his hands in the direction of the inner palace in good faith, and said gratefully, "thank you for the care of the sage and the consideration of the king of Qin. The sage treats his ministers like this. I don't know how to repay him! Master Yan, please take me to the mansion. "
"Lord Xue, please."
They left the palace together. Xue Lang asked Chang Jian to go to Nanke restaurant and called Jiang Lin to them. They went to the mansion given to Xue Lang by the sage of xingdaofang.
Xingdaofang is at the end of Zhuque street, near the gate of Zhuque and close to the inner city. The location is very good. The people living nearby are either relatives of the emperor or the ministers of the court. If Xue Lang was not granted by the emperor, he would not have expected to live here. Across a Zhuque street, opposite Guanglu Fang, the palace of Pingyang princess in Beijing is there, very close.
On the gate of the mansion, a plaque with the words of Xue Fu had been hung on it. When they entered, Yan Liben took out a drawing from his entourage, which was a panoramic plan of the mansion.
Yan Liben pointed to the drawings and explained to Xue Lang where the house was and what it was used for.
in ancient times, the construction of houses was strictly regulated. The style of the roof, the width of the gate, the materials and patterns that can be used are different. Different levels, different identities and different regulations.
The best natural is the Imperial Palace, followed by the palace, and then the residence of the Duke and marquis. The Tang Dynasty mostly followed the ancient rites. According to the rites of the Zhou Dynasty, the residence of the officials was called Fu. Ordinary people, even the rich businessmen, can't hang the official characters on the door plaque.
When building a house, it is against the law to use patterns, patterns, materials, or even the number of steps is wrong, which is called overstepping. When the emperor doesn't want to be cleared up, it's OK. When the emperor is in liquidation, it's one of the criminal evidences against the official. Xue Lang's residence was granted by the emperor, not built by himself. Naturally, there is no need to worry about the excess.
There are two places for Xue Lang to modify. One is to build a flat arena for playing games with Baozi and exercising himself.
The other is the garden. For the flower garden, Xue Lang, a pragmatic school, has no idea. He directly asks people not to plant any flowers and plants, but to plant peach trees and grapes. More peach trees, less grapes.
Rockery can be retained, hope to plant some columns, do not need beautiful ornamental bamboo, ordinary bamboo on the line. Varieties are not specially required.
These requirements are quite different from those of the time. Although Yan Liben was strange, he did not talk much. Instead, he wrote down Xue Lang's requirements carefully and checked with Xue Lang before he left.
After Yan Liben left, Xue Lang and his party began to stroll around the new residence. As a county magistrate, it can be said that the courtyard is deep. The activity scope of the outer courtyard is very wide, not to mention the inner courtyard with many houses.
In addition to the living houses, pavilions and pavilions, everything is available, but the plaque is blank, waiting for the owner to name. There is also a pond in the garden which covers a wide area. According to Xue Lang's visual inspection, there are at least dozens of mu.
According to records, the residence of Li Tai, the son of Emperor Taizong, once occupied a square with a pond of 300 mu. According to Xue Lang's current level, there is a pond of dozens of acres in the mansion, which is also moderate.
At present, there is nothing in the pond. There are only some small fish. Look at Yan Liben's drawings. Because the climate is not suitable, the original plan was to plant lotus flowers. Now we can only wait for next year.
In this regard, Xue Lang means that the lotus pond can only occupy one-third of the pond, and the remaining two-thirds do not need to be planted with fish. Some willows are planted by the pond. In summer, boating in the pool and fishing on the shore are also interesting.
Xue Lang estimated that he had been in the residence for half an hour, but he had not visited the whole house. He could not help but sigh that if he had worked hard for ten years in modern times, he could not have such a large house.
The mood is really complicated!
"To Dalang, Taipusi, Weiwei temple and the Ministry of punishment have sent honor guards and servants."
Taipu temple is in charge of chariots and horses, Weiwei temple is in charge of instruments and guards, and officials and slaves are supervised by the Ministry of punishment. The sage gave thirty servants and five maids. Of course, the maids came from the yeting palace, and the miscellaneous servants were sent by the Ministry of punishment. The maids have not been allocated, but now they are the servants and the guards.
Looking at the people present, Xue Lang deeply felt that there was no housekeeper. If there was a housekeeper, the housekeeper could do all these things.
When they were in trouble, Sun Chang, one of the guards, came out of the group: "counsellor Xue, please send Chang Jian to accept the servants. Captain Jiang and his family will take over the guards for you."
Jiang Lin then responded and said, "brother, just give it to me. Zimao, let's go. "Xue Lang made a decision: "xiuniang, send my handwriting to Weize pass, and ask a Chen to come to Beijing with your children."
Xiuniang was surprised and pleased: "thank you very much. I'm going to call for someone."
Xue Lang can't live in the mansion in Beijing for the time being. With Chen's insight and talent, I wonder if he has enough ability to support the affairs of the mansion in places like Chang'an. Fortunately, Xue Lang will not live in Beijing in a short time, so the personnel exchanges are not complicated. Let a Chen look after his family and train by the way. If he can exercise, he will naturally be promoted to be a housekeeper. If he is not competent, someone should stand out when he wants to come.
Xue langlue a ponder, call a way: "lotus fragrance."
He Xiang respectfully replied, "the maid is here."
Xue Lang said, "I will give it to you in the inner court of the county magistrate. You have been with me for a period of time. You know my temperament. Do you think you can do it? I'll give it to you if I can do it! "
Lotus face swept over a resolute color, voice tone steady way: "I will live up to my expectations."
"Good! Only in this way can you be like a person coming out of the princess's mansion. I will leave it to you. "
"Here it is."
He Xiang responded respectfully and firmly.
Xue Lang nodded. This arrangement is only temporary. If these two people are competent, they will naturally stay in Chang'an when they are qualified. If they are not competent, they can talk about it later. If we can seize the opportunity, it depends on their ability.
Today, the court meeting lasted only half a day. Now it is just after noon, and it is still early. Hand over with the Weiwei temple and the Ministry of punishment. Sun Chang had been with the princess for a long time and had extensive knowledge. He was familiar with how to arrange the ceremony and guard.
Take people directly to the house specially set aside for Yi Wei and arrange people to live in. The guard of honor, which marks the identity of Xuelang County, will not be delivered until tomorrow. Therefore, the guards are still empty and have not actually performed their duties.
Among the thirty servants, Xue Lang had men and women locked up in two courtyards, and then asked Changjian to pick out some strong male servants and go to the post station to carry over the things belonging to Xue Lang.
