Bai Qingwen immediately rubbed his arms, cheered up, smiled, and went forward.
An inconspicuous carriage stopped in this inconspicuous wilderness.
Shen Nan jumped out of the car first, then raised the curtain and faced the people inside, smiling and saying: "Sir, here we are, please get out of the car."
Chu Ze was the first to stick his head out.
In the dim light of the lantern, Chu Ze looked around openly.
The rabbit's nest, although there is endless spring and lots of fun.
But outside it was deserted.
Like a weed nest.
People who are not familiar with it would never imagine that there is such a place where gold and souls are lost.
After Chu Ze jumped down, he was followed by Zhu Di, and then Zhu Chong.
As soon as Zhu Xi's feet landed on the ground, his brows furrowed.
"What the hell is this place?" He looked around with disgust, "It's a wasteland, what kind of fun can there be here?" Zhu Ping turned around and wanted to leave.
With that posture, even Chu Ze couldn't help but wonder if this person had really never been here before.
It's impossible if you haven't been here before.
Zhu Ping goes out early and comes back late these days. He spends most of his time here.
He was not familiar with the inside, but outside, he knew exactly how many roads there were, how many weeds there were along each road, and what species each was.
He is just pretending now.
His disguise was really put in by Shen Nan.
Shen Nan quickly stretched out his hand to stop the person.
"Your Highness, don't be anxious. Since I have brought Your Highness here, I naturally don't dare to disappoint Your Highness. Your Highness, please come this way." Shen Nan stepped aside and motioned for Zhu Ping to go inside.
Zhu Ping looked at him suspiciously.
"This is what you said. If there is nothing here that satisfies us, don't blame His Highness for destroying it."
Shen Nan still smiled: "Naturally."
The three of them walked inside, with Zhu Ping walking at the front.
Zhu Fang loves women the most. He doesn't even have to pretend, he can act like a romantic leader.
Zhu Di, who was a little behind them, whispered to Chu Ze: "You really found the right person when you found him."
Not only will it not make people suspicious, but it will also save them the trouble of pretending.
How nice.
Chu Ze also imitated his actions and whispered to Zhu Di: "Isn't this an idea?" Chu Ze didn't even think of him at first.
Then a flash of inspiration came to my mind, and I thought of Zhu Xi.
Then this happened.
"You have a good idea. By the way, what should we do next?" Zhu Di asked Chu Ze.
Chu Ze said: "According to circumstances."
While talking, they walked further inside.
After turning a corner, all the desolation in front of them disappeared. Between the cover of countless trees, an ordinary courtyard appeared in front of Chu Ze and the others.
From the outside, this looks like an ordinary courtyard with blue bricks and black tiles.
The walls are mottled with traces of time.
The vermilion paint on the door is peeling off, and the lanterns hanging on both sides are also faded.
Even the knockers on the doors were half broken.
The yard was quiet and seemed normal.
Zhu Xi was unhappy again.
"What the hell is this place? A rabbit's nest? A ghost's nest, right?" Zhu Xi stood at the door, crossing his arms and pointing at the unfashionable door.
Bai Qingwen said: "Your Highness doesn't know something. We call it low-key. After all, we are the only one here. If something happens, no one will take care of us. We have to keep a low profile to avoid people worrying about it. If Your Highness doesn't believe it, we'll keep a low profile." So I immediately went in and took a look, it’s definitely worthy of His Highness’ status.”
After hearing this, Chu Ze only had two words in his mind: Fart!
The reason why he did this was because he was afraid of being too high-profile and causing trouble.
Chu Ze can guarantee that they are one of the troubles.
However, he never figured out how Shen Nan persuaded Bai Qingwen to change his mind.
Ahead, Zhu Xiang turned his head and looked at him suspiciously: "Seriously?"
"How dare common people deceive His Highness?"
Zhu Ping's face looked slightly better now.
He raised his chin arrogantly and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Come in quickly."
"Okay."
Bai Qingwen waved behind him, and Lao Feng immediately stepped forward and opened the door for them.
Once the door is opened, the scenery inside is revealed.
Countless lanterns illuminated the world as bright as day. Chu Ze saw the screen wall carved from white marble in front of him at a glance.
There are countless flowers planted in the flower beds on both sides of the screen wall.
Chu Ze couldn't recognize it and couldn't see clearly what kind of flowers they were.
But the flowers that can be placed next to the white marble must be extraordinary.
On both sides, there are countless red lanterns.
The two corridors, illuminated by ambiguous light, extended to a place where Chu Ze could not see.
Chu Ze glanced at it and sighed: "Rich."
More money than the palace.
Zhu Yuanzhang is a picky person.
Everything in the palace is lacquered with gold and copper.
The vases placed in the bedrooms of the concubines were all fakes that he had people buy in the market, just to show off.
The combined value of those things may not be as valuable as this large piece of white marble screen wall.
Zhu Di nodded: "You are indeed rich."
Shen Nan answered: "Your Majesty, Fourth Highness, has given me the reward. These are just some stones, not worth much."
"Isn't this valuable?" Chu Ze looked back and said, "I think this piece of white marble should be a whole piece. It has to be transported from the place of origin, and the shipping cost alone is quite a lot. Plus this carving Work, this screen wall is worth at least two to three thousand taels of silver."
Shen Nan smiled: "If you want to calculate it that way, that's right."
"It seems that the richest man in Fuzhou really deserves his reputation." Chu Ze praised.
Shen Nan said: "That's right, Mr. Bai's business is all over the world, and he can't make more than half a day. But there are also big difficulties. Although he brings in a lot of money every day, he spends more, and the money is like running water. It leaks out, tsk tsk, and even the lower officials can’t help but feel distressed when they see it.”
While Shen Nan was chatting with Chu Ze, she led them to Chunguang Pavilion.
Not long after walking, they stopped in front of a courtyard full of Jiangnan scenery.
"Ah, Chunguang Pavilion has arrived."
Shen Nan said to Chu Ze and Zhu Di: "Your Highness, sir, please. Your Highness is already waiting for you two inside."
Chu Ze raised his head and looked around, then lifted up his clothes and strode inside.
The further we walked in, the clear and refreshing laughter, like the oriole's laughter, and the sound of the piano flowed into Chu Ze's ears with the night wind.
Although he has not met anyone yet, it is not difficult for Chu Ze to imagine that the owner of this laughter must be a beautiful and elegant woman.
When they walked in, Zhu Ping was already hugging them from left to right.
Seeing them, he waved to them enthusiastically: "Chu Ze, fourth brother, what are you doing standing at the door? Come in quickly. The girls in this rabbit nest are indeed extraordinary. With their beauty, even Ying Tian It’s hard to find.”
Bai Qingwen also smiled and invited Chu Ze and Zhu Di inside.
When they sat down, several girls immediately gathered around them.
In an instant, the fragrant wind hit Chu Ze's face.
