Chapter 20 Moving to a New House(1/2)

"This...this is this my residence?"

Qin Xuan stood on Qingyao Street, tilted his head and stared blankly at the high walls and courtyard in front of him.

This is Xianyang City, an important place in the capital, and the political center of the Qin Dynasty.

After the Qin Dynasty unified the world, 120,000 wealthy families were moved to Xianyang.

Even if there are five people in each household, there are still six hundred thousand people!

So many people moved to Xianyang, making the already shortage of housing even more tense.

Many people who have insufficient identities can only live outside the city!

Not to mention Qingyao Street where the imperial court gathers with important officials and every inch of land is worth every inch of Qingyao.

How many nobles and nobles are not qualified to buy a house here.

Unexpectedly, I had just arrived in Xianyang for three days and had a yard in the most prosperous area.

wrong

Judging from the extended high wall, there is a small park!

Although I have guessed that the mansion given by the emperor will definitely not be small.

But I didn't expect it to be so big!

"Is it really appropriate to live here when I live?"

Qin Xuan looked at the tall courtyard wall and felt a little uneasy.

Since the Zhou Dynasty, we have been paying attention to etiquette.

By Shang Yang's reforms, there was a clear division of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Although Qin Xuan has the title of five doctors, he knows that he is not qualified to live in this mansion.

Zhao Gao comforted with a smile: "This is the house given to you by His Majesty the Emperor, and the miracle doctor can live with peace of mind."

After unifying the world, Ying Zheng's privileges became increasingly important.

Zhao Gaoshi has a deep understanding of this.

Even if he committed a death sentence, he could be pardoned by the emperor in one sentence.

It was just a mansion, but it was given by the emperor's golden mouth, so no one dared to talk too much.

Let's talk about it

This is the eldest son, and living here makes him feel wronged!

“It makes sense!”

Qin Xuan rubbed his slender fingers against his chin and nodded in agreement.

This was given by the emperor.

With the support of the First Emperor, I am still afraid of being furious!

Suddenly, an excitement appeared in his eyes.

Seeing this, Zhao Gao immediately reached out and pointed: "My doctor, please~!"

"Hahaha, Lord Zhao, please!"

Qin Xuan was in a good mood and stepped up the steps with his head held high, crossing the high threshold.

"Meet the Lord!"

As soon as he crossed the gate, a group of servants saluted respectfully under the leadership of an old man.

The number of people is at least thirty!

“What’s the situation?”

Qin Xuan was stunned when he looked at the crowd of saluting.

Zhao Gao explained with a smile: "Mysterious Doctor, these are all servants arranged by His Majesty for you to take care of your food, clothing, housing and transportation."

Then he pointed to the old man in charge and introduced him.

"This is your family's uncle, Uncle Fu."

"The family priest?!"

Qin Xuan blinked in surprise.

According to the etiquette system, only the nobles and officials have the family priest!

However, looking at the grand and luxurious mansion, I felt relieved.

Even the mansion does not comply with the rules, so it doesn’t matter if there are more.

I secretly complained in my heart: Is the First Emperor trying to put me on the fire and roast me?

Qin Xuan thought for a while and said, "Uncle Fu."

Uncle Fu hurried forward, lowered his head and said respectfully, "Sir, please give me instructions."

Qin Xuan shook his head and said, "You should call him the butler from now on. In addition, don't call me lord, I..."

I wanted to habitually say that I was a handsome young man.

Fortunately, I reacted in time.

Otherwise, if you call yourself a young master, you will lose your head!

He hurriedly changed his words: "I will call me old in the future... No, young master!"

"Yes, Master!"

Uncle Fu responded respectfully.

The servants behind also said respectfully: "Greetings to the young master."

Qin Xuan nodded and began to watch the entire mansion under the leadership of Uncle Fu.

It took an hour to understand my new home.

I couldn't help but sigh.

The home is too big, it's also a problem!

Qin Xuan looked at the sky and invited, "I see all kinds of meat in the kitchen. I will make roasted whole lamb with my own hands tonight. Lord Zhao must enjoy the scenery!"

Zhao Gao was delighted and wanted to stay and get closer to this most beloved eldest son.

But after thinking about it, he shook his head and declined.

For the sake of difficulties: "My servant wants to return to the palace immediately, and Your Majesty is waiting for me to go back to serve..."

While speaking, he was very low, for fear of offending the most favored young man in the eyes of the emperor.

"Hahaha, it's important to serve Your Majesty, so let's get together next time!"

Qin Xuan smiled without forcing him.

In my heart, I breathed a sigh of relief.

If this fat man really wants to stay, he will be disgusted!

Despite my heart's disgust, the open etiquette is still needed.

This is human nature.

"Uncle Fu, please make someone prepare the fire. I will make roasted whole lamb tonight!"

Qin Xuan rubbed his palms and his mouth was almost drooling.

I really can't get used to the food in the palace.

When I first walked into the kitchen, I saw rice filled with jars.

I couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Rice is a rare thing, and ordinary people can't eat it at all.

Unexpectedly, I mentioned it casually during dinner last night and said that I was used to eating rice.

Unexpectedly, the emperor actually listened to it!

Seeing that all kinds of meat were prepared, I immediately had the idea of ​​making roasted whole lamb and having a good meal.

Just treat it as a celebration of the housewarming!

Uncle Fu immediately commanded dozens of servants to get busy.

Only one man and one woman were left beside him.

Qin Xuan rubbed his hands and looked at the big boxes on the ground, his eyes shining.

The box was filled with golden cakes and jewelry, which were all rewards from the emperor.

He turned his head and ordered: "You, take someone to carry all the boxes to the warehouse."
