Qin Mubai and others walked around the new home and were very satisfied. It was a typical Chang'an courtyard house, with a green garden at the entrance and a cloister facing the back garden and polo field. The main house was a two-story tiled building with brackets and cornices.
The first floor is the guest room, dining room and study room, and the second floor is the master's bedroom, chess room, piano room, etc. The backyard is the servant house where the servants live, and there is a popular polo field. Because Qin Mubai is from a military family.
, the people from the Household Department also specially built a Buwu Pavilion, which is specially used to store weapons, armors and other items. There are also target stacks for archery practice erected near the edge of the stadium wall.
The yard is neither big nor small, and the house is decent. At first glance, it seems neither luxurious nor shabby. Simplicity was popular in Zhenguan Dynasty, so the whole house is quite satisfactory. It can be seen that the people in the household department follow the layout of Qin Shubao's house.
, are arranging the style of Qin Mubai's family. It's just that Qin Mubai's family is obviously one size smaller and slightly lower grade. These officials have a certain reputation in mind when doing things. Although Qin Mubai is in the limelight now,
He was a celebrity around the emperor, but after all Qin Shubao was the founding father of the country and Qin Mubai's father, Qin Mubai's family could not be allowed to be more impressive than his father's family.
"Yes, it's to my liking. Thank you very much, Mr. Su." Qin Mubai said gratefully to Su Yuan.
Su Yuan smiled and held up his hands: "What's the point of thanking you for what you're doing in your humble position? As long as the general likes it, I'll go back and fulfill my orders."
"Wait!" Unexpectedly, Qin Shuang'er suddenly spoke. She smiled apologetically at Su Yuan, then pulled Qin Mubai aside and whispered in a low voice: "Brother, you are going to keep that
Four girls?”
"What's wrong?" Qin Mubai didn't turn around for a while.
"Ouch!... This is not good!" Qin Shuang'er blushed and stamped her feet and said softly.
Qin Mubai blinked a few times and came back to his senses.
These ten men and women in the mansion are all servants given by the emperor. They all have contracts of prostitution, and they all fall into Qin Mubai's hands. To put it bluntly, these people will become Qin Mubai's private property from now on, and they don't have to pay.
The wages are enough to feed people. If you are in a good mood, a few coins are a gift. They can be sold like goods, livestock, and slaves. Especially those women, as long as Qin Mubai is willing, they are tools for venting his desires.
, there is no need to give any status, if you are kind enough, you can take her as a concubine at any time, so that they can live a little more comfortably.
It seems that Qin Shuang'er is not happy that her brother has these women around him.
"Brother, you haven't officially gotten married yet, how can you...take a concubine?" Shuang'er blushed and said, "It's insulting to the family tradition, and my father will definitely not be happy. Moreover, if Wu Meiniang knows about it,
Yes, I will definitely be angry with you."
Qin Mubai was thinking, aren't I just looking for an excuse to go to the palace to see the emperor? Just right.
"Who said I want to take a concubine?" Qin Mubai smiled and said, "But you are right. It is not good to make my father angry after all. So, Mr. Su, I want these six male servants.
, Girl, you can take it back, I’m not married yet, so I don’t need a girl to serve as my wife for the time being.”
"This... the Ministry of Household Affairs has acted in accordance with the order and has spent money to buy these women. The money was given in real money and the pictures were signed in black and white. It was a consensual matter." Su Yuan said with some embarrassment, "If the general
It would be a bit difficult to return four women to a humble position. When the emperor asked why he only gave General Qin six servants, it would be difficult to answer a humble question!"
"Then tell the emperor the truth! Just say that my brother is not married and does not want a daughter." Qin Shuang'er said first.
"No need to bother Lang Zhong." Qin Mubai said with a smile, "Your Majesty has given me such a generous gift, and I was about to go into the palace to thank him. When I see Your Majesty, I will explain it to him. Presumably, Your Majesty will not blame Lang Zhong."
"That's very good. I have to thank General Qin Zhouquan for the humble position." Su Yuan said with a happy smile.
It was getting late that day, so Qin Mubai planned to enter the palace again the next day. That night, he did not move into his new home immediately, but returned to the Qin Mansion with his mother and sister. Qin Shubao had something to say about Qin Mubai's new home.
