The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

"Miss, do you really want to see those people?" Xiaoyao curled her lips, feeling that her own lady had promoted them.

After lunch, someone from the government office came to report that the heads of the eight surnames and twelve families had gathered in the side courtyard of the government hall, and they were likely not to leave until they saw the new governor.

The government officials thought that the Fu Yin was going to send her maid out again, but they didn't expect that the Fu Yin herself agreed to meet.

Sheng Yuan agreed to meet, and the people in the government office who had seen her act were not to mention how surprised they were. It was just that the dozen or so uninvited guests were gearing up, repeatedly simulating the probing after the meeting.

"The visitor is a guest, and the uninvited guest is also a guest. Since they want to see me so actively, let's meet me!" Sheng Yuan put on her official uniform, patted Xiaoyao on the shoulder, and told her not to be so concerned, "In the backyard of the inner office You still need to keep an eye on the reconstruction."

Hearing this, Xiaoyao nodded in agreement: "Don't worry, since a hollow wall was found, Chengdong and our guards have paid special attention to it. After the front yard is built this afternoon, we will go to the small garden at the back to check it out." Now, even the small lake needs to be dredged and surveyed to prevent anyone from building a passage there."

After saying this, Xiaoyao still patted his chest with some fear: "Fortunately, Miss, you are wise and wise, otherwise, leaving such a hollow wall would only increase future troubles."

In this case, Xiaoyao has said it many times since he discovered the hollow wall.

Sheng Yuan didn't feel scared, he was just curious about how this thing was used.

At first, she thought this was a construction unique to the area where Shou'an City is located, like a fire wall or a flue wall. After all, Shou'an City is a bitterly cold place, and it is not unusual to have different heating methods from other places.

However, among the people in charge of rebuilding the backyard, there was a sergeant who was disabled due to injuries and was quite knowledgeable. He said that the inside of the hollow wall had a special structure and seemed to be specially used to transmit information from inside to outside.

For this reason, Shengyuan followed the other party to study the remains of the hollow wall for a long time. Who would have thought that the wall called the hollow wall was not completely hollow inside, but also had many irregular internal structures.

According to the sergeant, such a hollow wall also has the function of allowing both parties inside and outside the wall to communicate with each other.

Unfortunately, when the hollow wall was discovered, half of the wall had been demolished, and Sheng Yuan could not test it even if she wanted to.

Just when Sheng Yuan lamented that he could not experience the wonderful effect of the hollow wall, the guard servants of the Yongxing Marquis Mansion and the He'an City Marquis Mansion were extremely nervous. In their view, even the hollow wall appeared, how could there be no secret passage in the backyard of the inner office? Woolen cloth?
check!
Check hard!

Even if we check everything here, we can't let our master live in such an unsafe environment.

According to the original plan, the reconstruction of the inner courtyard's backyard was carried out in the order of first entrance, second entrance, third entrance, and small garden.

But after problems were discovered in the front yard, the second part of the reconstruction was turned into a small garden.

Only by thoroughly inspecting the outer buildings can they safely build the two courtyards in the middle.

"Tomorrow the third wave of people sent by our family will arrive." Xiaoyao helped Shengyuan organize her official uniforms and walked with her out of the yard. He said as he walked, "Little Marquis is afraid that we are still here." It needs to be repaired and cannot be moved in, so I plan to buy a house on Front Street to house them temporarily.”

"It's not necessary. We can't accommodate them in the backyard, so we can use the side courtyards and guest courtyards on both sides of the government office." Sheng Yuan was not prepared to let his servants stay too far away from him until he had complete control over Ancheng.

Although the people sent by her parents would definitely be loyal servants in her old life, she didn't want to give anyone an opportunity to take advantage of them in this messy Shou'an City.

She is not a very controlling person, so she has no intention of testing human nature.
