What she imagined was just a palace, but unexpectedly, it was a group of palaces!
The palace is divided into three parts. The middle one is the main hall, which is also the place where the emperor holds court in the morning. The front is where the ministers work, and the back is the harem.
This is almost no different from the restoration of Nanxia Palace!
"Except for the palace walls, all the buildings inside are made of wood, and all use mortise and tenon structures. This is the most stylish building in Nanxia. Historically, Nanxia has produced many architectural masters." Luo Wenjun introduced to everyone.
"Later ancient architecture all imitated Southern Xia architecture, but never surpassed it. I have to sigh at the wisdom of the ancients. Our ancestors left us so much to learn and inherit."
A man walked over and respectfully called out to Luo Wenjun, "Professor."
"Bring some hard hats over here, and I'll show everyone around."
After the safety helmets were brought, Luo Wenjun led everyone into the palace through the gate.
The building is still under construction, but the stone slabs on the ground have been laid, and the only thing missing from the entire palace is the main hall. The buildings in other places are already arranged in an orderly manner.
"Professor, how did you manage to build such a complex project on such a large scale in such a short time?" Mu Qing couldn't help but ask.
Luo Wenjun glanced at Mu Qing and said, "Miss Mu, it seems you have some insights into architecture."
"I just read some information." Mu Qing explained immediately.
"My team and I have been preparing for the construction of Nanxia Palace for five years. However, due to funding constraints and the lack of a suitable location, the project has been put on hold. The wood you see here was actually prepared long ago."
After hearing this, Mu Qing understood.
"Professor, there's only the main hall left to build. It won't take more than a month, right?" Amin looked at the nearly completed building and felt that it might not take that long.
"I've found some more information these days, so I've made some adjustments to the main hall's structure, which requires new material."
"Oh." Mu Qing nodded, "Can I go into the main hall and take a look?"
"Of course, but it's a bit messy inside."
Luo Wenjun led everyone in. The workers were busy at work. There were some blueprints on the ground nearby. Mu Qing did not look around at the cut wood and exquisite carvings like others did, but instead looked at the blueprints on the ground.
She could understand these drawings perfectly.
Luo Wenjun looked at Mu Qing's actions and was a little surprised. It seemed that Mu Qing had some knowledge of architecture and even knew how to read blueprints.
Director Zhou didn’t know much about it before he came here, but after coming here and looking at these buildings, he no longer had any hesitation in his heart.
Wait! It's worth it.
Mu Qing saw a small building in a place, which should be the model of this building. Although it is a model, the workmanship is very exquisite.
Luo Wenjun walked towards Mu Qing and said, "This building is a one-to-one replica of a model."
"Professor, can these woods really last for hundreds of years?"
"Of course. But ours won't work. The wood is different, so it won't be as effective against rot and insects."
"When the wood gets damp, it will also affect the structure." Mu Qing said softly.
Luo Wenjun was surprised again. He spoke to Mu Qing as if he was talking to his own student.
"Are you also an architecture student?"
