Jingzhou, Mingde Gate.
Qin Yuan got up early and first asked a doctor to take his wife's pulse.
Sure enough, his wife became pregnant.
Qin Yuan was so happy.
After all, I have been trying very hard for the past few months, but I still haven't gotten pregnant.
Sometimes, he almost suspected that it was a curse from a time traveler.
Now everything is fine, he is completely relieved.
He immediately went to report the good news to his father-in-law Minglou.
Then I stopped by to take a look near Mingde Gate.
Great, everything is going according to plan.
Without ten times the number of troops to siege, with just that small number of people, it would be impossible for Jingzhou City to fall as long as there was no traitor in the city who opened the city gate.
It's settled.
Qin Yuan felt relieved.
What a stupid woman.
The arrogant and domineering look on Yan Jiaoran's face when he was teaching civil and military officials, princes and ministers a lesson was simply unbearable to watch.
It fully demonstrates the style of a villain who has achieved success.
I really can't bear to watch it anymore.
He was about to leave.
suddenly.
Qin Yuan felt a wave of malicious gazes and shuddered.
It turned out that Yan Jiaoran glanced in his direction.
This stupid woman has really sharp eyes, she can even find me!
Yan Jiaoran's resentful look made Qin Yuan feel uncomfortable.
It's done.
It’s time to withdraw. It’s time to withdraw.
The next step is to wait for Pharmacist Li to seize the opportunity and go out of the city to strangle him.
It's nothing for me to do. I'm going home to be with my wife.
Qin Yuan left quietly.
Unexpectedly, he was blocked at the street corner.
I saw a man in his fifties standing at the street corner. His hair and beard were as black as ink, his eyes were bright and he was full of energy.
He was wearing casual clothes and a black scarf, and looked like a scholar traveling for studies.
Jia Shixian?
What is he doing?
Qin Yuan looked doubtful.
Although he changed his clothes and his whole temperament changed, Qin Yuan still recognized him at a glance.
Commander of the Imperial City Division—Jia Shixian.
He just waved his hand and said calmly, "Master Qin, it's been a while since we last met. Is everything going well?"
"All is well, all is well! I wonder what Lord Jia is doing?" Qin Yuan asked, his expression slightly alert, and it was obvious that he had no good intentions.
Jia Shixian glanced at Qin Yuan and said impatiently, "Master Qin is so hard to invite. I have tried many times to invite Master Qin to my humble abode for a short visit, but Master Qin has simply ignored me."
Qin Yuan replied, "So those people were sent by Lord Jia? Who else did Qin think they were?"
"If I had known that it was Lord Jia who invited me, I would have accepted the invitation without hesitation!"
Jia Shixian smiled slightly and said, "Master Qin, are you free to come to my humble abode and sit for a while?"
Qin Yuan looked at Jia Shixian deeply and thought, if it is a blessing, there will be no disaster, but if it is a disaster, there is no way to avoid it.
It seems that I have to go.
Qin Yuan nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Since Lord Jia has invited me, how can I not go? Let's go!"
It took the group half an hour.
Only then did we arrive at Geling in the northwest corner of Jingzhou City.
Geling is adjacent to a lake. As the carriage traveled along, the clear water reflected the mountain road lined with lush green bamboos. The area between the mountain and the water looked like a painting.
After passing Xiling Bridge and heading north into the mountains, you can see a group of buildings in the mountains from afar.
There is a plaque hanging at the gate, covered with green gauze, with the words "Korakuen" faintly written on it.
The servants in the garden had already received the message and opened the gate to welcome the guests. The carriages and horses rushed in without stopping, passing Pan Cui Hall, named after the ancient pines, and Xue Xiang Pavilion, which was full of centuries-old plum trees. Then, they passed Cui Yan Hall, Yi Xiu Hall, Yi Lu Pavilion, Yu Rui Pavilion, Qing Sheng Terrace...
The carriage turned south and came to Yangle Garden from Korakuen Garden. The scenery also changed from the mountains to the lakeside. Pavilions and terraces were still visible along the way. The carriage passed Guangyang Pavilion, Chunyu Temple, Yangle Hall, Jiasheng Hall, Qiu Shui Temple, Diyichun, Meiwu, Yanchuan Pavilion, and two courtyards: Shuizhu Courtyard and the adjacent Xiangyuelin.
On the way, Qin Yuan was chatting and laughing with Jia Shixian at first, but now he couldn't help but marvel at it.
I had heard that there was a local tycoon living in Geling, but I never expected that this would be Jia Shixian's property!
He hid it really well!
The carriage continued to move forward, passing Youshengzai Hall, Jietang Hall, Aici Pavilion, Liuzhao Pavilion, Duxi Pavilion, Yuyuan Pavilion, Shushitai, Yiwan Pavilion...
After passing dozens of endless buildings and landscapes, we finally stopped in front of a courtyard with the words "Banxiantang" hanging on it.
Jia Shixian got off the carriage and raised his hand, saying, "Master Qin, please."
Qin Yuan remained calm. He had been to the Forbidden City countless times and was not frightened by the wealth before him.
In front of you is an antique building with the words "Duobao Pavilion" written on it.
Countless beautiful concubines in gorgeous clothes shuttled around in the pavilion, like fairies.
Even more than concubines were the dazzling array of calligraphy, paintings, and treasures in the pavilion.
Although Qin Yuan didn't know much about it, he could see that these tripods, jades, calligraphy and paintings were not ordinary items, and any one of them could be worth a lot of money.
Jia Shixian brought Qin Yuan in, and then sat quietly on a brocade couch, surrounded by beautiful girls.
Then, he just waved his hand and said, "Sit."
Although Jia Shixian's tone was calm, he possessed an irresistible power.
Qin Yuan sat down calmly, only to hear Jia Shixian say, "Master Qin, what do you think of this old man's Banxian Hall?"
Qin Yuan was amazed and pretended to flatter: "Qin is really a frog in the well. After seeing this today, I finally understand the meaning of the word 'wealth and honor' in this world."
"The wealth and splendor of this garden has truly dazzled Qin!"
"Tsk tsk, even Jia Baoyu's Grand View Garden can't compare to this place."
Jia Shixian was slightly startled, "Jia Baoyu?"
