Chapter 4 First Arrival in the Capital
In Tokyo, Bianliang, there are four rivers across the city. The one who passes through the southern city wall is called "Cai River". But don't get me wrong, this "Cai" does not refer to Cai Jing. It is because the river water comes from Chen and Cai, so it is named. The river channel enters the city from Dailou Gate in the southwest of the city. After winding around the city, it flows out of the capital from Chenzhou Gate in the southeast of the city.
There are thirteen bridges on the Cai River. In Chenzhou Gate is Guan Bridge. From the north, there are Xuantai Bridge, Yunqi Bridge, Hengqiaozi, Gaoqiao, Xibaokangmen Bridge, Longjin Bridge, and then Xinqiao, Taiping Bridge, Jinmai Bridge, the first bridge, Yinan Bridge and the Sili Bridge outside Dailou Gate.
However, Su Yi and his group didn't have to walk so many bridges. They entered the city from Dailou Gate and went down the river. When they arrived at Taiping Bridge, they were considered home. Gao Qiu was favored and was rewarded by the officials around Taiping Bridge. Gao Qiu's official position was called "Control Commander in front of the Palace", so the people in the capital also called it "Gao Dianqian House".
From the size of the mansion, you can see how popular the officials are in Gao Qiu. Although this near Taiping Bridge is not the best location in Tokyo, it is also a well-connected place next to the Cai River. After all, it is a high-end place. Giving such a large piece of land to Gao Qiu is a way to envy others.
The carriage slowly walked on the street, and the purpose of entering was to grow to the endless courtyard wall. Fatty Qian was drooling and tsk in his mouth: "Young Master, why don't you say that people in our small places have never seen the world? Look, this is called a house, this is a grandeur. People say that my father is 'Qian Bancheng', and he really has never seen the world. Look at this house... My God, if my family is 'half city', this is 'whole city', not 'two cities'!"
"What adjective is this..."
Su Yi frowned, pulled Qian Fatty, and asked him to retract his head that was poked out. Fortunately, there were no big trucks these days, otherwise he would have cut his head off like this.
Suddenly, the carriage turned a corner and came to a gate. At the door, two stone lions, obviously larger than the stone lions that Su Yi had seen in his previous life, staring at the pedestrians and carriages on the street with fierce eyes.
Only then did Su Yi realize that the road he had just walked was on the side of the mansion, which was equivalent to walking around for half a circle before reaching the gate.
Fatty Qian couldn't wait to jump out of the car, looking at Shishizi with a look of never seeing the world. Su Yi was not interested in this thing, so he yawned. When Lu Qian lifted the curtain, he reached out and got out of the car with Lu Qian's arm. There was no expression on his face. Lu Qian kept glancing at Su Yi with his light, and seeing that he was calm, he couldn't help but admire him.
With a creaking sound, the middle door opened wide, and the servants came out, which surprised Su Yi. Compared to this huge mansion, there seemed to be a little fewer servants, only a dozen people. But then he thought, maybe Gao Qiu felt that there was no need to mobilize the crowd to welcome him, so he deliberately did this.
Su Yi smiled and said nothing. He greeted Fatty Qian and walked into the door under Lu Qian's leadership. The servants bowed and bowed to the slogan. Su Yi nodded, and Fatty Qian next to him had already arranged: "Yane brought a gift to everyone, and those who were just doing the gifts are rewarded. Seeing that there were no carriages behind him, all of them were Suhang specialties, which could not be bought in the capital. I will be placed later, and everyone will come to find me! My name is Qian Heng, and I am your Yanei's close friend. Just call me Mr. Qian!"
When I heard that there was a reward, the servants all smiled and came up without any instructions to help carry the things on the carriage.
There was a servant waiting in the door, half-hunching, leading everyone in. Along the way, the scenery gradually unfolded, with the rockery flat grass, the flowers and branches shallow water, the strange rocks stacked, and the artistic conception was long, not like a mansion of a military general at all. But what surprised Su Yi was that after walking for so long, he had never seen a servant. Such a large mansion seemed empty.
After walking hundreds of meters and not yet reaching the inner courtyard, Su Yi couldn't help but agree with Fatty Qian's statement. This house is indeed big enough. Compared with Jiahe's mansion, I don't know how many times it is to go. Being able to have such a large mansion in Kyoto is obviously not something that money can only be done. Su Yi couldn't help but think that he had a lot of money in business in the past three years, but in Tokyo, Bianliang, where every inch of land is still far from enough!
If it were an ordinary person, he would always feel a little panic and restrained when he first entered the luxury house. Just like Fatty Qian at this time, the more he walked in, the stiffer his expression on his face. When he encountered a beautiful scenery of strange stones, he would not dare to look up like when he was at the door, for fear that he would not see it right at all and would not be able to afford it.
But Su Yi is not an ordinary person. He has experienced such incredible things in his two lives. Whether it is the memories of his previous life or the encounters in this life, Su Yi has a sense of unreality. Sometimes he even thinks that maybe when he wakes up, he will go back to 2020. Everything that happens now is just a dream.
Since it is a dream, why bother to restrain yourself? Depression is also a lifetime, and freedom is also a lifetime. Why not let yourself live a happier and more comfortable life? What's more, he didn't think about being with Gao Qiu's father. No desires means no desires, and he doesn't care what others think of him.
So he walked along the way, looking leisurely, as if he was traveling here, looking extremely casual and unrestrained.
When he arrived in front of the inner courtyard, Lu Qian whispered: "Yane, I can't go in here anymore, you can go in by yourself." After thinking about it, he couldn't help but remind: "Yane, it seems that the Palace Commander should not be in the mansion, otherwise he will definitely come to welcome you. Madam..." Lu Qian suddenly lowered his voice and said: "Madam is the wife and sister of the Grand Marshal of Xiao Wangdu, so it's not easy to meet. Yanei returned home and she didn't come to welcome you, I'm afraid..."
Lu Qian didn't say it any further, but the meaning was clearly expressed.
Su Yi didn't expect Lu Qian to say these words, which was a little surprised, but he also accepted his kindness and said, "Thank you for reminding me, it's all a family, it's okay."
When Lu Qian heard him say this, he stopped saying anything. He bowed and took Qian and Fatty to the side courtyard to settle down with the servant.
The servant who led the way changed to a maid and finally saw another servant.
Su Yi followed the maid and entered the backyard. The maid led Su Yi to the central hall. He was about to step in and walked in, but the maid stopped him for a moment and whispered in a slight uneasy manner: "Ya... Master, please wait in the hall." After saying that, he closed his eyes tightly, as if he was afraid of being beaten.
Is it really a bad plot to be awesome?
