Good Life in Qin Dynasty

Half a month after the beginning of autumn, the autumn harvest began. After the autumn harvest, the Ci'an Palace and the Compassionate Ning Palace built by Li Jiyang were completed.

On this day, Li Jiyang invited the queen mothers of the two palaces to visit Ci'an Palace and Cining Palace.

Accompanied by the queen mother, the king, Jingyang Lord, Changping Lord, Changwen Lord and other relatives and relatives.

There are also countless maids, servants, imperial guards, and ministers, as well as their family members.

The wooden fence had been removed a long time ago, and replaced with a fence surrounded by light gauze. After everyone arrived, Li Jiyang stepped forward: "Please remove the gauze veil."

The queens and queens of the two palaces looked at each other half-believingly, but now the arrow was on the string and had to be fired, so they stretched out their hands together and tugged at the veil. There were already maids standing beside them, and when the two of them tugged, someone followed.

The mist-like veil fell to the ground, and the scene in front of them stunned everyone.

Two identical palaces stood in the Qin Palace. The palace was as tall as two small mountain peaks, and the top of the palace was shining with colorful lights.

A small river flows slowly in the middle, and an arch bridge is erected over the river, connecting the two palaces.

Red maples are planted all around the palace, and it is autumn now, layers of crimson are tinged with golden yellow, and occasionally there are green leaves flashing away.

The small river between the two palaces flows forward and converges into a lake. The lake is now full of lotus flowers, just like midsummer. In the middle of the lotus lake, there is a huge pavilion, which seems to be floating on the water, connected by a nine-curved bridge. .

And where they were, there were two identical gate towers with the words "Cian'an Palace" and "Compassion Ning Palace" written on them. The gate towers were covered with ivy, like the greenery of early spring swaying in the wind.

Only the snow in winter is enough to make up the scenery of the four seasons!

Going in from the gatehouse, there is a four-meter-wide road paved with bluestone slabs. There are miniature lighthouses on both sides of the road. The lighthouses use crystal lights, which can prevent rain, wind, fire and transparency.

It looks beautiful during the day, but it is really bright when it is lit up at night!

Li Jiyang introduced them one by one to the lotus pond, maple leaf forest, ivy, as well as the bluestone road and crystal street lamp.

"What is shining on the top?" Finally, a minister couldn't help asking.

"The roof is covered with glazed tiles." Ying Zheng told them indifferently: "One piece of gold."

Li Jiyang looked at Ying Zheng, was he bragging?

The glazed tiles he puts on are mainly for their beauty and to show off, let alone a piece of gold, even a piece of ten thousand pieces of gold is useless, because this is the only one for Scorpion Baba, and there is no way to sell it outside!

Ying Zheng motioned him to take a look at the Queen Mother of the Second Palace.

Li Jiyang turned his head to look, and he blushed a little at that time, because the cheeks of the queen mothers of the two palaces were pink with excitement!

Qin Anjun gave them so much face!

The queen dowagers of the two palaces walked ahead with their heads held high.

Everyone visited Ci'an Palace, but Qin Anjun said: "The two palaces, even the wood used are exactly the same, there is no difference."

Before entering the palace, there is a small square where you can dance and play music, but now the surrounding area is filled with peonies that Li Jiyang poured out of the space.

Although the ancients also raised flowers and planted grass, no one really took care of them carefully. After all, this time was the Warring States period when even the king ate two meals. degree of grass.

So there is no such a well-raised peony, such a big, and such a beautiful peony!

The two princes and empress dowagers stared at each other with starry eyes!

The first floor of the palace is surrounded by the two-meter-long eaves extended from the outside, and there are a total of [-] pillars in the lower circle, representing the heaven and earth, and the carving patterns are all ivy, which means eternal youth.

After entering the door, there is a red brass pillar carved with phoenix Yufei, with wings outstretched, body hovering on the pillar, and a petal-like lantern in its mouth. It is also very beautiful to light at night.

"This pillar...?" Someone knocked on the pillar.

"It's hollow inside. If you burn charcoal in winter and dissipate heat directly, you won't feel cold." Li Jiyang pointed to the ground and said, "Here is also connected to ground heat. As long as you burn it in winter, the palace will not be said to be scorching hot." Like summer, at least warm like spring."

"When this person gets old, it will be easy to get cold in winter!" The Empress Dowager Huayang is not to mention how happy she is. The construction of this palace is called luxury, exquisiteness, and grandeur!

"Isn't it!" The Empress Dowager Xia Ji was also happy, the floor in the palace was paved with marble, as smooth as a mirror, Qin Anjun did not lie to the two old women.

The first floor is divided into two by a luxurious staircase. The east side is the indoor reception area, and the west side is an indoor swimming pool, which can also be used for bathing. Anyway, it is connected to hot and cold water, and the sewer.

It took Li Jiyang's people a month to build a sewer system. The underground of the entire Xianyang city had already been built, and it was just about to be put into use.

Of course, no one knows about this matter except him, including Ying Zheng.

After visiting the first floor, everyone went to the second floor. The second floor is a whole, without any divisions. It is an indoor banquet hall, which is very large, and can entertain guests and enjoy singing and dancing at the same time. Moreover, the second floor is connected to the opposite second floor by an arch bridge. Floor to ceiling windows.

Let the female relatives go up to have a look on the third floor, because the third floor is the official bedroom. Based on the envious expressions of the female relatives after they come down, it is not difficult to guess the degree of luxury there.

And what made the ministers speechless the most was that Qin Anjun used crystals for the two palaces, no matter the doors or the windows!

"This is too..." Even the Queen Mother Huayang was so excited that she didn't know what to say.

"Empress Dowager, this is glass, a kind of crystal." Li Jiyang did not dare to say that these are all crystals, they are all made of stone scum, and he is guilty of calling crystals.

Simply took the opportunity to introduce the name "glass".

"This glass is transparent and bright, and it's better than crystal." The Empress Dowager Huayang was looking at the large glass floor-to-ceiling windows and talking|"Extremely extremely!" The Empress Dowager Xia Ji nodded.

There are three layers of curtains, one layer of light gauze, one layer of light-proof, and one layer of gorgeous, no matter how high-end it is, Li Jiyang has all kinds of knowledge beyond a thousand years, all of which are spread in this palace.

And this palace uses flush toilets, the kind of toilets, these ancient people really dare to think and look, a toilet is stunned to queue up to go in and see enough!

Li Jiyang was speechless at this!

But then countless officials asked him in low voices: Can I have a bathroom like that in my own home?It doesn't need to be as luxurious as the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces on the outside, as long as the toilet can be used inside!

"Let's talk about this later, let's talk about it later!" Li Jiyang hurriedly got rid of these people and continued to show them around.

Behind the two palaces is a huge garden. This garden is not divided into a whole, but there are cranes dancing, magpies chirping, and birds such as canaries singing.

Although it is autumn, the ground is golden, and the garden is full of blooming golden chrysanthemums!

In this era, chrysanthemums, especially Rustica, represented longevity.

"What a beautiful Huang Hua!" The Empress Dowager Huayang was amazed.

Li Jiyang swallowed: "Oh, this one is called Jinsi Huanghua."

He forgot that the chrysanthemum in this era is not called "chrysanthemum", but Huanghua.

Everyone was also amazed at the beautiful golden silk yellow flowers in this big garden. How leisurely it is to plant so many flowers and plants for the queens and queens of the two palaces.

Li Jiyang is not short of money, and how luxurious and luxurious the decorations in the bedroom of the two of them have fully demonstrated the "filial piety" between him and Ying Zheng... The kang extensions on the heated kang are all made of ebony with gold trim!

At this time, Ying Zheng said: "These are all made of cement. If there is no accident, these two palaces will not collapse for thousands of years."

The ministers took a breath of air!

Besides rocks, what can survive thousands of years?But the stone still has a possibility of weathering, but the cement does not—they went to the Compassion Ning Palace next to it to have a look, and it was exactly the same as the Ci An Palace, even the curtains used inside were the same material!

Even the pedals that are used are covered with gold on all four corners.

Li Jiyang played extravagantly in front of everyone!

Everyone was on the lotus lake in front of the queen mother of the two palaces. There was a small island surrounded by lotus flowers and connected by a winding Jiuqu bridge. They had a meal there, mainly because they could still see lotus flowers at this time , it surprised everyone.

After the meal, Ying Zheng announced something: "The widow has decided to build a new palace for the queen mother, who is already in her 30s this year."

After everyone was taken aback, they all puffed up their cheeks and shouted, even Lu Buwei was not exempt.

In this era where the average age is 50 years old, being in your 30s is almost half your life!

Li Jiyang curled his lips, what's wrong with over 30?In his era, many women in their 30s said "we girls".

As long as you are not married, even if you are divorced, those who are still single are girls!

"This matter is also troublesome to Qin Anjun!" Ying Zheng clasped his fists to Li Jiyang and saluted.

"No!" Li Jiyang agreed happily.

Everyone thought that the king was taking advantage of Qin Anjun, but in fact Li Jiyang whispered to Yingzheng more than once that he wanted to build a palace for Zhao Ji.

Only Yingzheng, Zhao Ji, Young Master Fusu and Li Jiyang knew about this matter, and the rest of Jiang Neishi and the big ladies in Zhao Ji's palace knew a little bit, but they dared not speak out.

"The construction will start in the spring next year, and when the early summer comes, the sovereign can invite the Queen Mother to live in the new palace to escape the summer heat!" Li Jiyang happily promised.

"The Ai family is waiting to live in the new palace." Zhao Ji covered her mouth and smiled.

To be honest, she really likes the new palace of the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces, but this is the place of the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces, not her Zhao Ji's, and she can't build a new palace this year, so let's wait for next year, she waits afford it.

The Ci'an Palace lived in the Empress Dowager Huayang, and the Cining Palace lived in the Empress Dowager Xia Ji.

Since then, in autumn, Qin State has become popular to appreciate Huanghua, among which the most precious variety is Golden Silk Huanghua.

Because there is no sale outside!

After the empress dowagers of the two palaces moved in, they held banquets for half a month to show off their new palaces, which made the envious eyes of all the noble ladies turn red!

After the Ci'an Palace and the Compassionate Ning Palace were completed, the happiest young master Fusu ran around between the Ci'an Palace and the Compassionate Ning Palace. Behind him were thirty servants, twenty maids, eight The big palace maid, four old nuns.

Wherever you run, there is a large group of people following. Li Jiyang looked at such a young man Fusu, and remembered watching TV dramas in the past, where the concubines framed each other. You threw my son into the pool, and I threw your daughter Anyone who just fell off the rockery is a lie!

Young master Fusu, accompanied by thirty servants, ten of them are Dali servants, each of these ten people should be able to defeat two or three imperial guards.

Of the remaining [-], four are personal servants, and the remaining [-] are dedicated to scouting the path for the young master, helping the young master to pack toys, and when the young master is tired from running, Those who are responsible for carrying him to run or walk, anyway, they all perform their own duties.

The big palace lady is in charge of serving, the nanny is in charge of coaxing, and the little palace lady is in charge of washing and changing clothes and so on... It's a miracle that this young master hasn't grown crooked after such service!

Compared with Mr. Fusu, Li Jiyang felt that there were too few people around his little nephew, so he would have a hundred guards for him when he went back!

It's so cool to go out, no matter where you go, you know that it should be a dude!
