Song Qingshu couldn't help being surprised, originally according to his speculation, this young man in Jinyi was from a family of Zhongming Dingshi, but after abandoning the boat and landing this time, although there was a decent carriage, there was no servant girl to greet him. You must know that in this world, the rich and powerful are very particular about these etiquettes.
"Did I guess wrong?" Song Qingshu glanced out through the screen window. The bustling streets and densely populated Fuzhou are different from other places, but from modern times, what metropolis has not seen it? Although this Lin'an city was prosperous, he didn't pay attention to it, and his mind was all on guessing about the young man in brocade clothes.
The carriage drove for half a day, and finally drove directly into a remote courtyard in the city. Although this courtyard is quite elegant, it inevitably feels a bit old and decayed, and Song Qingshu became more and more puzzled: "This house doesn't look very good. "
Soon the carriage stopped, and Zhang San's voice came from outside the carriage: "Young master, please get out of the carriage."
After getting out of the car, Zhang San and the others didn't say a word, and led him around the yard in silence. Song Qingshu was full of doubts, but he was afraid of revealing his flaws, so he didn't dare to ask.
After walking for a while, a group of people unknowingly came to a remote small gate, where a simple carriage was waiting.
Then Zhang San clasped his fists and said: "Young Master, our goal is too big, and it is inconvenient to go with you again. Please get on the bus, Young Master, and we will protect you in secret."
Song Qingshu nodded, and then his heart suddenly became clear: "It turns out that Mingxiu plank road is a secret plan."
Thanks to the visual bombardment of various spy war movies on TV stations in his previous life, he already knew these connections and the drama of getting rid of the stalker. Now that he knew the secret, Song Qingshu immediately calmed down and began to sit in the carriage to rest his mind.
After going through about three or five houses in transit, the carriage was replaced by a sedan chair. After walking for half a day, I suddenly saw two big stone lions squatting on the north side of the street, three gates with animal heads, and a dozen or so Chinese people sitting in front of the gates. The person who wears the crown. The main door is not open, only the east and west corners are used for people to come in and out. There is a plaque above the main entrance, and on the plaque is a big book with five characters "Decree to build the Weiguo Mansion".
Song Qingshu was secretly startled: "Weiguo Mansion? Isn't this the house of Jia Sidao, the privy envoy of the Southern Song Dynasty?"
He was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty, and he knew a little about the composition of the power centers of the world. The Duke of Wei in the Southern Song Dynasty was Jia Sidao, a famous power minister in later generations. characters.
However, this chaotic world is different from the previous history. In the history, Jia Sidao’s power was overwhelming, and even the emperor called him "Master and Minister", and all officials called him Zhou Gong. In this chaotic world, the Southern Song Dynasty still had Wan Qixie, Han Tuozhou, and Shi Miyuan, the famous treacherous and powerful ministers in history, stand against each other, and their power is naturally impossible to be as exaggerated as in history.
Despite this, Jia Sidao is now also a powerful figure in the Southern Song Dynasty's court to protect the three contending for one, and he is by no means an existence that can be underestimated.
When Song Qingshu was in doubt, the sedan chair was carried directly to the direction of Weiguo Mansion, instead of entering the main entrance, it entered the west corner gate.
"It's actually a member of Jia's mansion." Song Qingshu was secretly startled, Jia Sidao is so powerful and has a close relationship with Xia Kedao, what exactly does he want to do
The bearer carried it in, walked for a while, and when he turned the corner, he stopped and withdrew.
While Song Qingshu was wondering, a girl dressed as a servant girl led a group of women to greet her, and said with a coquettish smile: "Second Master Bao is finally back, the old ancestor has been talking about it all day."
While talking, he greeted three or four well-dressed young men of seventeen or eighteen years old to come up, lifted up the sedan chair, and continued to walk into the garden.
Song Qingshu quietly observed the girl through the gap in the door curtain, and saw that she had a slender body and a long face. Although she was not stunning, she looked gentle and pleasant, which made people subconsciously feel close.
"Second Master Bao?" Song Qingshu silently read the maid's address, with a strange expression on his face, why does this address sound so familiar.
"Did you change your sex today, and you're so quiet?" The servant girl walked beside the sedan chair and smiled quietly through the screen window when no one else was paying attention.
Song Qingshu secretly yelled, this girl seems to be the personal servant girl of Mr. Jinyi, and judging from her tone, she has a very good relationship with Mr. Jinyi on weekdays, otherwise the address would not be so casual. Given her familiarity with her master, it would be difficult for him to hide it from her.
"Just now I took a few carriage rides and sat in a sedan chair for a while, and now I feel dizzy and don't want to talk." Song Qingshu quickly found a reasonable reason.
"Then hurry up and take a nap for a while, the old ancestor is waiting for you in the room now, don't look sick, otherwise the whole Weiguo Mansion may not be peaceful." I couldn't help covering my mouth and laughing.
Song Qingshu suddenly had a headache, he didn't know anything about the situation in the mansion now, and he was going to see some old ancestors soon, if there were any relatives there, if he couldn't recognize them, he might be in some trouble.
He wanted to find out some news from this young girl, but seeing her bright eyes, she was obviously a smart little girl, and she was also the person next to the young man in brocade clothes, so she would easily see her flaws if she was not careful.
Although Song Qingshu was a little nervous, but after experiencing the turbulence of the Qing and Jin countries, he was not so worried about a mere government. Anyway, his martial arts had recovered, and it would be better to run away with a leap of lightness.
Thinking of this, he gradually calmed down, prepared for a while to cover the water and earth with soldiers, and acted according to circumstances.
The sedan chair came down in front of a hanging flower door, and the servants withdrew, the girl came up and drew up the curtain of the sedan chair, and helped Song Qingshu get off the sedan chair: "Be careful."
Song Qingshu couldn't help laughing, this rich family is very particular, and it's nothing if they don't know the five grains, a big man actually needs a maid to help him get off the sedan chair.
But at this time, he was pretending to be the young man in brocade clothes, and he didn't dare to do anything different from taste. He supported the old woman's hand and got off the sedan chair.
The hand was soft and warm, Song Qingshu had to sigh that the girl's little hands were really beautiful, but now that he was in the tiger's den, he quickly calmed down and was led by the maid to walk in.
Entering the vertical flower gate, there are chaoshou verandahs on both sides, and a hall in the middle, where there is a large screen with red sandalwood shelves and marble. Turn around the screen, there are three small halls, and behind the halls is the main courtyard behind.
There are five upper rooms on the front, all with carved beams and painted buildings. On both sides, there are corridors and rooms on the side of the mountain, with parrots, thrushes and other birds hanging in various colors. Song Qingshu secretly smacked his tongue when he saw it. It was as exquisite and gorgeous as the imperial palaces of the Jin and Qing Dynasties. It seemed that Jia Sidao was not less corrupt.
On the platform, there were a few girls dressed in red and green sitting. When they saw them coming, they hurriedly greeted them with smiles and chirped, "The old lady was still reading just now, but it happened to be here."
So three or four people scrambled to open the curtain cage, and at the same time they heard someone reply: "Second Master Bao is back."8
