Chapter 41
East Suburb Bianyuan
Located thirty miles away from the eastern suburbs of the Imperial City.
Huang Guting and the other two came to the door of the villa and looked at the depressed mansion in front of them.
Xiao Xuanzi said in disbelief: "Your Highness, this Dongjiao Villa seems a bit dilapidated! Have we gone to the wrong place?"
"Wow! What a big house, brother, will we live here in the future? This is much better than Fuhu Villa. Mom, right?" Lin Xiaoxi looked at the majestic villa in front of her, her eyes flashing, full of joy.
Lin's mother smiled kindly.
"Brother, let's go in and take a look!" Lin Xiaoxi was very excited. The villa in front of him covered hundreds of acres of land. Although it could be seen that the rooms in the courtyard were a bit dilapidated, it was still an extremely magnificent residence for them.
The Dongjiao Villa has existed for more than a hundred years and was built by the previous emperor. Huang Qingye has never been here a few times. He didn't know why he remembered it in the court, so he sent Huang Guting to think about his mistakes behind closed doors.
In fact, even so, as a royal family, it is beyond the reach of ordinary poor people.
With hundreds of acres of land, a large villa, the walls of the villa alone are three meters high, just like the walls of some small towns, with arrow towers and watchtowers on them. You can still see several guards wearing tattered armor napping against the corner of the wall.
The scenery inside the wall is even more beautiful. There are streams flowing out of the rockery canyon, artificial green lakes, unique pavilions, stone bridges, painted buildings, cliffs, and bamboo forests.
In Lin Xiaoxi's opinion, this villa is like a small town, beautiful and like a fairyland.
Of course, it is relatively dilapidated in the eyes of Xiao Xuanzi and Huang Guting. After all, Xiao Xuanzi is also a person who lives in the palace every day.
"Hey! Is there anyone? The Second Prince is coming down." Xiao Xuanzi shouted.
Soon, a few maids, a few guards, a few in charge of the affairs, and a total of more than a hundred people came out. After hearing Xiao Xuanzi's words, they dared not believe it, so they quickly knelt down and bowed.
"Who is in charge!"
An old man in sixties walked out of the crowd and bowed and said, "The housekeeper disappeared decades ago, and now he is taken care of by the old man."
Xiao Xuanzi said: "Go and organize the four rooms, especially the second prince's room, there should be no trace of dirt."
The old man hurriedly said, "Yes, sir, I will order someone to sort it out now."
Lin Xiaoxi raised her little head around and looked around curiously.
I saw bright and fragrant flowers blooming around, some blooming by the small lake, some blooming under the cliff, and beside pavilions. This villa is like spring all year round.
Lin Xiaoxi happily jumped onto the stone bridge on the water, tiptoed, stretched out his white and soft arms, picked petals from a peach tree, and sprinkled them into the stream. The petals fell into the water and floated on the water of the stream, making the entire stream turn pink and indescribable beauty.
"Mom, come here too, it's so beautiful!"
Xiao Xuanzi worked diligently to supervise the maids in charge of their work, and then inspected them everywhere. Suddenly, he was stopped by the old man just now.
"Mr. Xuan,"
"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Xuanzi asked.
"I have to say something, please don't be angry, sir." The old man stuttered.
"What's the matter? Tell me!"
"That's right. Other aspects here are good. We old slaves are taking care of each other carefully, but now there is no food to put into the pot. The court has not paid an annual salary for several years."
Xiao Xuanzi said with disbelief: "I want to lie to me, right? Then how have you lived in the past few years?"
The old man said with a look of embarrassment: "We only used our savings to barely survive. Now we have almost spent all of them. Many people have left. Only those who are not brave enough to stay here. Now that the Second Prince is down, we can't prepare a table of food for His Highness."
Xiao Xuanzi looked at the old man's wrinkles and his hands were covered with calluses. He felt that they were not lying. After thinking about it, he would not have to alarm His Highness for this small matter.
Then he took out a thousand silver coins and said, "These silver coins are ready for a few days. As for food, you don't need to prepare them."
When Xiao Xuanzi saw Lin Xiaoxi playing under the stone bridge, he thought for a while and said, "You should prepare some food for the mother and daughter who come with us. It's not too good. Of course, it's better to add more meat and serve him well. As for your highness and you don't have to worry about it."
"Yes! I've heard from you." The old man hurriedly said.
Huang Guting closed the door and walked into the inner world of the God of War Picture.
The vast and mysterious light still lingers around Huanggugong. The sky is chaotic and dark, but no matter where Huanggugong goes, there will be a ray of light reflected around Huanggugong, allowing him to easily see everything around him.
Huang Guting looked at the withered star treasure tree, and felt a little worried. It seemed that he would transplant the treasure tree earlier.
Immediately, Huang Guting looked at the towering palace.
Ang Sheng strides wide, trying to climb the ladder.
"Bang!"
A crystal shot down, shocking Huang Guting's feet who were stepping on the steps.
Huang Guting had already been prepared for a long time, so he just took a step back and stopped.
"I've gone up once, why can't I go up?" Huang Guting said silently.
After a long time, he realized something in his heart. He gently closed his eyes, hugged the primordial body and mind, and gathered peace of mind.
"Wow—"
When he opened his eyes again, he was already standing outside the Temple of the God of War!
"It's true!" Huang Guting looked happy. He remembered the last time he suddenly appeared on the high platform, which was when he awakened the three alien vital energy. At that time, he realized his mind and saw his nature, without any distractions in his heart, as if he was suddenly enlightened.
At this time, he entered this state of enlightenment again for only a moment and naturally climbed to the high platform.
"Boom...——Cheep!"
The gate of the temple roared and opened again, slowly, Huang Guting walked into the temple again. The magical skill "Seal" he learned last time was still as if in front of him. There was also the old man holding an iron broom.
When dark and white light flashed, Huang Guting stepped into the temple and was extremely surprised. At this time, the Temple of War was majestic and magnificent, with extremely luxurious interior decoration, which was completely different from the scene when I first came!
What shocked him the most was that thirteen pictures suddenly appeared on the walls. Each picture was painted with a giant standing tall, holding a giant axe in his hand, cutting the sky and killing the gods, holding a kirin long spear in his hand, piercing the sky, or being bare-handed with fists, majestic. Or white clothes are better than snow, as ethereal as dust.
Huang Guting looked at it one by one and was shocked. There were two women on the two scrolls.
A eyebrows are dyed ink, and the temples are like cut by a knife. Stars are shining in her eyes. She is wearing a long jade moon dress with long royal blue hair behind her, like a vast sea of vast blue sky. Her hands are spread out and she stares outside the scroll.
Another one was wearing a fiery red armor, with a heroic appearance and red hair flying. From a distance, it looked like a ball of extremely hot fire burning in the painting.
The women in the two scrolls have no beauty, only their shapes. They seem to be just a show, or they may be very skillful. When ordinary painters look at it, they may point and shake their heads and say disdainfully: "It's just a bad painting!"
