Song Yuanhuanzhi

Chapter 48

Song Huan and his party finally entered the city gate in Xushi.

At this time, the sky has darkened, and the night sky seems to be a dark blue curtain, dotted with stars, and the hooked moon hangs on the side.

At a glance, the whole street is crowded with people and colorful lanterns.

The bustling scene in the city did not die down with the coming of night.

I saw row upon row of shops were hung with fiery red lanterns, swaying in the wind one by one.

Walking along the way, there is also the mansion of the big official and wealthy guest, and the lights are even brighter under the eaves.

The bursts of blue smoke emitted by these candles when they burned, lingering in the air, shrouded the entire city, drawing a rare picture of fireworks in the world.

As expected of the peak season, Song Huan and the five of them searched for more than half an hour, rushed into a hotel called Wooden Dragon Inn just before the night ban, and booked four herringbone rooms.

The Wooden Dragon Inn is located in the west of the city, and it is far from the test site of the East City Court. The exact distance can only be estimated when we go to the test site tomorrow.

There is no way, they came late today, and the rooms in the nearest inn are already full, even the ones that don't even have firewood houses left, so they are lucky to find this place.

The journey was full of wind and dust, except for Song Huan, everyone in the group had already fallen asleep.

Song Huan tucked up the quilt for Adi, opened the window lattice, and looked out through the open gap. At this time, he no longer looked like he had just entered the city. He could only see a lot of red lights, and no one was on the street. The sound of silk, bamboo and wind music can also be heard vaguely.

No wonder there are still rooms left at such a low price.

A bad environment will affect the performance of students.

Let's ask Fu Yuanzhi tomorrow to see if we can find another suitable one.

It is best to find it in the east of the city, if not, at least find a quiet environment to ensure sleep.

Who knows, Fu Yuanzhi gave an unexpected answer the next day, "Just plug your ears."

Song Huan, "..."

It makes perfect sense!

Why didn't she think of it? !

Song Huan gave Xiao Er [-] Wen to deliver meals to Fu Yuanzhi's room on a regular basis.

Song Huan took his younger brother to visit the spot to see what the examination room looks like these days.

As for the matter of escorting the goods, Uncle Xu and Uncle Liu can handle it.

It was dark at night when I came in yesterday, and I can feel the bustling and lively city that belongs to Fucheng even more during the day.

There are many shops on both sides of the street, with red walls and green tiles, attic cornices, and signboard flags flying high.

There are also small stalls with a uniform size and shape on the open space, covering a small area, which can meet the needs of small vendors to set up stalls, and can also beautify the streets without appearing cluttered.

The streets extend from east to west, north to south, and there will be cross streets every time you walk a certain distance.

There are endless streams of pedestrians on the street.

There are students in Confucian shirts who just arrived, there are shopkeepers who only lower their heads to carry their burdens on the road, there are drivers who yell for the people next to them to get out of the way, and there are drivers who drive ox carts (donkey carts) to deliver goods quickly, and there are boys and girls who stop to enjoy the scenery in the lake. .

Song Huan and Adi walked on their legs for about an hour before arriving at the so-called test center.

There are already many officers and soldiers guarding outside, dignified and solemn.

There were also some officers and soldiers who kept staring at Song Huan and his brother, as if they would be beaten to death if they took a step forward!
Song Huan continued to look around with a smile, always paying attention not to make any suspicious movements, so he took a rough look under the bottom line of the officers and soldiers' patience.

In fact, there is not much to see, the gate is closed, and all that can be seen are the gate and the wall.

This time the test center is the test shed on the left side of Yangjiang Academy.

The test shed is not the kind of shed you understand, with four pillars poking into the ground and a rain cloth on it.

The test shed here is equivalent to a big house.

Sitting south and facing north, it covers a large area.

Enter the Longmen (north direction) first, and there is a workshop inside. Behind the workshop is the Art Nursery. The east, west and south sides of the Art Nursery are the No.

Song Huan was not interested in the exact size of the test booth, he just calculated the distance and determined when to leave tomorrow so that Fu Yuanzhi would not miss the test.

On the way back, Song Huan and Adi opened their stomachs and mouths, with candied haws in their left hand and meat buns in their right, walking slowly and eating.

Song Huan would buy it when he came across someone he liked. Of course, it was limited to low-priced items like sugar figurines that cost less than ten pennies.

Song Huan also saw many amazing handicrafts.

The handicrafts displayed in the shop are not the ones you can look down on in your previous life.

If there is no comparison, in her previous life, she felt that what those traditional craftsmen did was already amazing. Until now, after comparison, those in her previous life were just like children.

The lifelike small animals made of bamboo are exquisite in workmanship, and it is impossible to tell that they are made of bamboo unless you look closely.

There are also small boats carved out of walnuts. Whether it is hull spans or pavilions, all structural parts are precisely fitted with mortise and tenon structures.

The connection is tight and seamless, and many small parts are also alive. The doors and windows can be pushed open, and the sail can change direction and rise and fall freely.

Song Huan believed that if it could be scaled up in equal proportions, the boat would really work.

There are so many commodities that people are dazzled and overwhelmed.

Unfortunately, Nai He has no money in his pocket.

Neither the former nor the latter is something she can currently afford.

The two walked around and came to a huge lake.

Adi ran under the big tree, pointed to the two towering buildings in the center of the lake, and exclaimed, "Sister, what is this, it's so beautiful!"

Song Huan also looked over, "It's really beautiful! This should be the landmark building of Yangjiang Mansion."

Adi raised his head and asked in confusion, "What does a landmark building mean?"

Song Huan explained, "When people think of it, they will think of Yangjiang Mansion, and when they talk about Yangjiang Mansion, they will think of it."

Brother nodded with a half-knowledge.

At this time, passers-by A, B, C, and D happened to be discussing these two buildings, and Song Huan and Adi chatted for a "tour guide" explanation.

It turns out that the name of the double building is "Sun and Moon Shuangliu Building". It is located in the center of Shanhu Lake in Yangjiang Prefecture. The list goes on and on.

The Sun and Moon Shuangliu Building is a major feature of Yangjiang Mansion. The two buildings are more similar to towers than buildings.

Because the twin towers soar into the clouds and point directly at the sun and the moon, they are called "Sun Tower" and "Moon Tower".

The sun tower looks like a nine-story octagonal pagoda, about twelve feet five feet high, and the moon tower is ten feet five feet high, with a total of seven floors.

All components such as buildings, tile surfaces, angled corners, bucket arches, sparrows, doors and windows, columns, beams, ceilings and floors are completely decorated with copper murals.

The carved and painted doors and windows on each floor have different meanings.

At night, the two buildings are covered with red lanterns. It is said that the lighting of those lights has to start at noon.

Sun and Moon Shuangliu Building is essentially a complex of restaurants and tea houses.

Only the bottom four floors are open, and the top ones are all gimmicks. Of course, you can also go to the top floor to have a panoramic view of the layout of the entire Yangjiang Mansion.

The twin buildings are so special, of course the people who can enter are also the privileged class.

As for the scope of the privileged class, ordinary people like them definitely have no chance to know.

I heard that you have to have a token issued by the Sun and Moon Shuangliu Tower to enter there, and you can only enter by taking a special painting boat.

Otherwise, unless the emperor is personally driving, other people want to break into the car without a license, and there is only one dead end.
