At the beginning, I gave up my military power with a cup of wine, and I ascended the throne

Chapter 215: New Marquis Mansion Completed

The Xiliang Marquis completely ignored her and continued exploring on his own. She changed into a comfortable position, leaned her head back on the man's thighs, and looked up at the night sky with her beautiful eyes.

The sun set, the crescent moon rose into the sky, and the light of white rice leaves fell into the courtyard through the thin dark clouds, making the night more hazy.

Her white clothes were as white as snow, her face was as pretty as jade, her long eyelashes moved, but she did not continue speaking, just enjoying the warm time.

Miyano's breakthrough did not last too long. After a few hours, the captivating aura of the land fairyland dissipated.

The door of the Grinding Hall opened, and Invincible Jiangnan walked out. A faint golden light emanated from his whole body, especially his eyes, which looked like two suns. Ordinary warriors didn't dare to look into those eyes.

"How does it feel?"

he joked with a smile.

"Of course it is excellent."

Miyano grinned, "It's never been so strong."

"Your Vajra Indestructible Divine Power is in perfect harmony with the Buddha's power within the Buddha's bone relics."

Xiao Han said: "If you absorb 70% to 80%, it will be enough to enter the land fairyland. However, it seems that there is still a lot of residual Buddha power left in your body. If you can refine it, your strength will improve."

"hey-hey."

Gong Ye looked at the two people under the moon and said tactfully, "I, an old man, will not disturb the love between the Marquis and Miss Yuwen."

After saying that, with a chuckle, Cao Xiaohang gave him a look that said "I understand", then he retreated back to the knife grinding hall, closed the stone door, and made a roar.

"I want to go back."

After sitting for a while, Yuwen Yulou stood up, stretched, yawned, and stepped on tiptoe, carrying a short knife, several feet away. His white clothes fluttered in the wind, and he disappeared under the moonlight.

Xiao Han smiled and shook his head, then walked out of the Modao Garden and happened to meet Miaoyu.

"Hehe, sir, it looks like it won't be long before our mansion has a new courtyard."

She joked.

"It's so late, why aren't you sleeping?"

he asks.

"I want to ask if you and Sister Yuwen want to have a midnight snack."

Miaoyu replied.

"Don't eat."

They walked along the riverside towards the courtyard, with the shade of trees caressing each other, the cold moon in the sky, the twinkling stars shining on the blue lake, the ripples sparkling, and reflecting large areas of white jade-like brilliance.

In the courtyard.

Qingyao was still practicing swordplay. When she saw him coming back, she stopped and looked at the sword on Xiao Han's waist. She was slightly surprised and asked, "How come Sister Yuwen's Xiudong is in your hands?"

"Your sister Yuwen saw that I didn't have a good sword to use, so she lent me Xiudong for the time being."

He didn't say give, he just said borrow.

"It's a scam."

Xiao Han muttered.

nonsense."

A few black lines appeared between Xiao Han's eyebrows, "Is your young master that kind of person?"

"Yes."

She muttered quietly.

A few days later in the morning.

It was still dark when the gates of Xiliang city opened. Two riders rode out and escorted Yuwen Yulou thirty miles out of the city. In the east, a few white clouds appeared and a faint golden glow broke through the sky.

"When traveling in the martial arts world, one must be extremely careful."

He warned: "If you encounter that old monster who is invincible, save your life first. Send me a message and I will go and get you back." "Got it,"

On horseback, Yuwen Yulou, dressed in white, nodded slightly, "What a nagging mother. You keep saying the same thing over and over again."

"I'm not a child, and this isn't my first time traveling the world."

"In addition to the short knife on her waist, she also has a long and narrow knife with a sheath. It is extremely sharp. It was found by Xiao Han in the treasure house of the Marquis' Mansion."

A pair of beautiful eyes stayed on the man for a moment, then retracted, looked into the distance, and said softly: "Be careful when fighting with others. If there is any trouble in Xiliang, I will rush back as soon as I get the news."

"You don't have to worry about these things."

Xiao Han shook his head, "Just gain experience in the martial arts world."

"gone."

Yu Wenyulou swung his long whip, and the dark brown horse under his crotch neighed, its four hooves flying, and it leaped up and rushed out three or five feet away, wrapped in the morning breeze and against the morning light, gradually going farther and farther, until it disappeared at the end of the official road.

After watching her leave for a long time, Xiao Han withdrew his gaze, turned around and rode his horse into the city.

At this time, there were more and more carriages and pedestrians on the official road. After entering the city, he still followed the rules, dismounted, and held the reins. As a result, he met Pan Yuanshao at the gate of the marquis' mansion.

"Yuan Shao, why are you coming to me so early in the morning?"

Xiao Han said: "But the salary I gave you is not enough, so you come here to ask for money."

"No way."

Pan Yuanshao shook his head: "I got up early today just to inform the Marquis of a good news."

"what news?"

"Northern Wei and Jizhou went to war?"

"No."

Pan Yuanshao said: "The new mansion has been completed, and we can start moving there one after another."

"I thought it would take another year or so."

Xiao Han paid little attention to the affairs of the new marquis's mansion, and never deliberately tried to understand the progress.

"It was supposed to be later."

Pan Yuanshao explained: "Last winter, didn't the princess ask for a sum of money from the court? So I asked the Ministry of Works to find more people."

"Your Majesty lives a simple life, works diligently and loves the people. It's a good thing that you don't like luxury, but after all, Your Majesty is the face of our Xiliang."

He looked up at the mansion in front of him. Many of the green bricks and green tiles were beginning to fade. "The old mansion is a bit too shabby."

"Let's go, have breakfast first, and then I'll go to the new mansion with you."

The news of the completion of the new mansion soon spread throughout the mansion. The slaves and servants, as well as the masters of the various courtyards, were all very excited.

As a result, Xiao Han originally planned to go to see it alone with Pan Yuanshao, but in the end, the people who ordered two horse-drawn carriages, including Dayueer, Xiaoyueer, Murong Yi, Princess Ningxi, and Miaoyu all went with them.

The new marquis's mansion is located on a low hill in the south of the city. It surrounds the entire hilltop and covers a very large area. Although it is not as large as the Marquis's Manor of Zhenbei in Jizhou, it is far larger than ordinary marquis's mansions.

There is a two-meter-high blue brick courtyard wall and eight large and small gates for entry and exit. The main gate is particularly wide, with two-meter-high stone lions that are majestic and handsome. There are marble steps in front of the gate. There are only a hundred houses at the foot of Wangshan Mountain, and there are two driveways for vehicles and horses to travel.

At the foot of the mountain outside the Marquis' Mansion was a military camp, where thousands of elite infantry and cavalry were stationed to guard the Mansion.

Entering from the main gate, the front yard is extremely spacious, planted with various bamboos and trees, with a faint green color. There is a stream across the front yard, and a rockery and pond, everything you need.

After passing through the front hall, the central courtyard becomes larger, with more than ten courtyards adjacent to each other. Xiao Han’s main courtyard is in the middle, and it is also the highest point in the entire marquis’ mansion.

The area is almost as large as the original old mansion. In the main courtyard is a lake hundreds of feet wide.

I heard from Pan Yuanshao that this big lake was formed naturally, formed by the upwelling of ground water. The lakes and pools in the entire marquis' mansion all draw water from this lake, besides that.

This is also one of the reasons why the new marquis's mansion was located here.
