Xiao Chenzi took something out of his sleeve, looked at it twice, calculated the current date with his fingers, and nodded.
"Your Majesty, the foundation and general decoration are now complete. Basically, most of it is done. There are also special people watching over the upstairs and downstairs, so you can go in!"
Zhao Xin just walked over there, and sure enough, there was someone standing on that floor.
"Who are you?"
It was dark, and the candlelight was not very bright. The group of people came from the House of Evil. They faced each other with swords and spears, as if they were waiting for the other side to make a sound, thinking that if the other side did not make a sound, they would just deal with it directly.
"Look at you, you bunch of dogs and slaves! You are so blind! Can't you see that His Majesty has arrived? Kneel down quickly, one by one!"
When the guards heard His Majesty's name, they immediately knelt down.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty blames us for not recognizing the great man!"
That group of people really didn't expect that the emperor would come to understand the people's sentiments so late at night... They had no choice but to kneel down and beg for mercy. After all, if what they had just said was exaggerated, even the Evil House would not be able to protect them.
"It's okay. By the way, how are the guards in your house?"
Zhao Xin just looked up at the many candle lights upstairs. There was not only candle light, but also the light of the night pearl. The star on the top floor was even more dazzling. If you didn't know, you would think that the star in the sky had fallen into the earth.
"Your Majesty, the guards up there are arranged in order of 2, 3, and 3. There's no one and nothing on the top floor. Our master doesn't know what your Majesty wants the Linglong Pavilion to look like in the end, so the theme hasn't been finalized yet."
The people on that floor also explained it clearly.
“So what’s the theme?”
"Your Majesty, please look at this picture. This picture was left to us by our master. Now, Your Majesty, please take a look at it."
Then he invited the emperor to take his seat.
Then spread this thing out on the table.
"Your Majesty, these four are spring, summer, autumn and winter."
Four kinds of decoration and four kinds of combinations give you four different experiences.
These four types are equally good and have their own merits, but compared to these four types, this ordinary one is more attractive. If you add this pile of things, it will look a bit dull.
"Is there anything else? I don't feel anything about these four. If you let me choose from these four, you might as well let me just pick the ordinary one."
It looks fancy and a waste of money, but it has no other use.
But it's really... ironic.
The guard pursed his lips.
These four decoration combinations are the easiest to sell, and as Linglong Tower becomes more popular, many people like this combination. Unexpectedly, the emperor rejected this plan after just two glances.
It’s just His Majesty the Great Qin, but he has eyes that ordinary people can’t see, and the things he likes are completely different!
"Then your majesty, please look at this!"
The guard also took out a blueprint from his pocket. This blueprint was half-designed and not yet complete, mainly because he had accepted the commission.
My master said it to me personally.
If the emperor is not satisfied with the four seasons plan, he can look at this plan. Although this plan is a semi-finished product, a semi-finished product naturally has its advantages.
Of course, he was still questioning it at that time.
What good can a semi-finished product do?
But the moment of surprise came just like that. After seeing this thing, the emperor couldn't help but nod his head, thinking that this semi-finished product was simply amazing!
"This thing is...amazing!"
Zhao Xin nodded immediately, took the thing and took a good look at it. His pupils contracted and he nodded.
"Good stuff, this blueprint is a good thing, why didn't she finish it?"
"Our master didn't finish the painting, saying that a semi-finished product would be more likely to arouse your majesty's imagination, so he specially made this semi-finished product instead of a grand production."
A semi-finished product that is still in its infancy can easily resonate with people.
So this time Su Xi successfully seized this point of resonance and counterattacked directly.
The emperor was indeed very pleased with this move.
"Okay, I'm very satisfied with this thing, so you can just do this case."
"OK."
The guard bowed and leaned back.
Zhao Xin went upstairs directly and felt that the design of this floor was somewhat like a library. There seemed to be piles of books, and the first floor was bound like this!
God knows what materials are used on the first floor.
This floor occupies a large area, with two dragon-shaped pillars placed on it. Inlaid in the pillar is a semi-floating glass bead, which looks like jade and scatters light.
Although I don’t know what kind of craftsmanship is used, it looks particularly amazing.
"Your Majesty... this design is indeed too..."
Although the first floor does not have any highlights, the floating columns are really amazing.
"I think it's okay, but what's that next to it..."
Zhao Xin walked to the side and pressed a button, and the secret passage next to him opened directly. After it was opened, the pupils of the servant who was explaining it next to him shrank. He didn't expect that the emperor would discover this by chance!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
"Oh, there is a secret passage in this exquisite tower. I didn't expect you to leave me a way out."
After hearing this, the guard secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but soon took a deep breath again.
Because the emperor was frowning, it was obvious that he wanted to use them as a scapegoat.
"But...did I ask you to build this secret passage? This exquisite tower is for viewing. Now that I've built it, I can't neglect it, right? Where does this secret passage lead to?"
The guard who followed him also frowned. The sentence his master repeated most before leaving was that he must not expose the secret passage under any circumstances.
But within a few days, the secret passage was discovered. After the emperor found out, his eyes looked cryptic, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"So, where does this secret passage of yours lead to at the end?"
Seeing that the person on the other side didn't answer, Zhao Xin immediately raised his voice, implying that the other party should speak quickly. However, the guard also frowned.
Pack!
This is the only way now!
"Your Majesty...how would we know about this secret passage? Besides, for safety reasons, we usually don't use a whole team to decorate it!"
"Take him away and put him in jail for a day or two. If he doesn't tell me, kill him. I don't want to see this person appear."
Bai Qi nodded, meaning it was okay.
But it was the middle of the night and he couldn't be taken to the prison.
"Your Majesty will definitely do it. Take care of it for him!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The guards beside him and Bai Qi nodded.
