On the eve of the New Year, Liu Jing's family finally moved from the temporary Han Palace to the Dajia Palace outside the North City. The original temporary Han Palace was renamed the Military Advisor's Mansion, which was lived by Jia Xu, who had a large family population and his family.

The Dajia Palace was originally the palace where Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu came to inspect Guanzhong. Later, it has been the palace where kings of the Han Dynasty inspected Chang'an and Guanzhong. It has been repaired many times over the past two hundred years, and the last major renovation has just been completed and officially became Liu Jing's palace.

The Dajia Palace covers an area of ​​nearly 300 acres. Although it is much smaller than the Weiyang Palace, it still looks extremely luxurious compared to the ordinary mansion, and is more than twice as big as the Han Palace in Xiangyang and Chengdu back then.

The entire Dajia Palace is divided into four pieces. The easternmost part is the horse house, about ten acres in size, followed by the front yard, which is the residence of the guards and servants, covering an area of ​​about forty acres and has nearly a hundred houses of all sizes.

The second is the atrium, which is also divided into two parts. One is the main hall for gatherings or receiving guests and the living room. Only one main hall covers an area of ​​50 acres, which is a medium-sized palace that can accommodate 1,500 people to eat here at the same time. The other part of the atrium is the East Courtyard, which has more than a dozen yards of all sizes and is mainly the place where guests live.

In addition to the front yard and atrium, the largest one is the back house. This is also the beginning of the life of Liu Jing and his wives, concubines and children. It covers an area of ​​200 acres, which is completely a smaller version of the Weiyang Palace harem.

The back house is actually a garden with extremely beautiful scenery. In the center is a sparkling lake, covering an area of ​​80 acres, formed by underground springs, called Ganlu Lake. From a distance, it looks like a nectar pearl hanging in the Dajia Palace. The lake is surrounded by various flowers, plants and trees, and dozens of exquisite pavilions and towers. A pavilion in the center of the white jade lake leads directly to the lake.

When Tao Zhan and Sun Shangxiang first entered the Hou Mansion, they were a little shocked because it was almost exactly the same as the Zhoumu Mansion in Xiangyang. In fact, the Zhoumu Mansion in Xiangyang was built by Liu Biao in imitation of the Weiyang Palace harem, and the garden he finally built was naturally the same.

There are seven large courtyards around Ganlu Lake, which naturally saves a lot of troubles of dividing houses. Everyone can take the lead according to the house when they were in Xiangyang.

The only thing she felt novel was Xiao Qiao. She had never seen the Mu Mansion of Xiangyang Prefecture. When she first entered the Hou Mansion, she was stunned by the magnificent scenery. Although she had also seen the world, the mansion in Jiangdong could not be compared with the Dajia Palace, which was exclusively used by the emperor.

Xiao Qiao loved this back house very much. Every step she took was amazed by the scenery in front of her. Although it was still winter, those wonderful rockery, those exquisite pavilions and towers, the slightly warm, clear and transparent lake water, and the long pavilion carved from white marble, were like a fairyland against the thin mist.

"A Lian, do you like this place?" At some point, Sun Shangxiang appeared beside Xiao Qiao.

"I like!"

Xiao Qiao's bright and beautiful eyes stared at the scenery in the backyard, with endless admiration in her eyes, "I really like the scenery here."

"I don't like it very much."

Sun Shangxiang said sadly with his hands behind his back: "I prefer natural scenery, the endless grasslands, the majestic and handsome mountains, and the vast Yangtze River. I feel like a free geese that can fly in the sky without restraint."

"Okay, don't sigh. After the spring begins, I will definitely accompany you to Zhongnan Mountain. Is it OK?"

Sun Shangxiang immediately smiled and said, "Then we will make up for it!"

Although Sun Shangxiang was dissatisfied with Xiao Qiao because she married Liu Jing and ignored her for several months, Sun Shangxiang was a woman with open mind after all. As time went by, she gradually forgot the unhappiness of sharing her husband and picked up their original friendship again.

Xiao Qiao looked around and asked again, "Then where is my yard?"

"I'm here to take you there, come with me!"

Sun Shangxiang took Xiao Qiao's hand and walked quickly to the west. Xiao Qiao's yard was very close to Sun Shangxiang's yard and it was not large. It only covers three acres. However, it was very delicate and quiet. It was surrounded by green bamboos and a pond in the middle. A bamboo viewing pavilion was built on the rockery. A small white jade bridge led to her bedroom. It was an exquisite two-story building located in the middle of the bamboo forest.

"The yard is not big, but I think it's very good. If you don't like it, we'll change to another yard."

"No! No!"

Xiao Qiao shook her head repeatedly. She fell in love with this quiet courtyard at a glance. She couldn't help but smile and said, "You know I like bamboo forest the most. I like this quiet atmosphere. Oh my God! Is this my place to live in the future?"

"You have too rich feelings!"

Sun Shangxiang chuckled and said, "It's just a bamboo forest, don't be so exaggerated! My residence is very simple. A large warehouse is full of my various weapons and treasures, as well as a martial arts training ground. I want to be spacious. I don't like all kinds of trees to get in the way."

Xiao Qiao smiled and said, "Okay! OK! My Princess Shangxiang, either go in with me or you go back and see the child."

When Sun Shangxiang mentioned the child, she suddenly said "ah!" and she actually forgot her baby son. Her wet nurse was holding him waiting for her in the carriage. She turned around and ran to the outside house in a panic.

Seeing that she was extremely panicked, Xiao Qiao felt funny, and her thoughts immediately turned back to her beloved yard. She walked towards the small building with brisk steps.

The small building is divided into two floors, with a total of eight rooms, four of which are the top and bottom. The top is the bedroom, piano room, study room, living room, and the bottom is the residence of four maids. There is also a bungalow outside the bamboo forest, with five or six rooms, which are the residences of several female guards who guarded her.

All kinds of things have been sent in first, and Xiao Qiao has no time to visit the house for the time being. She wants to tidy up her dress first. She is standing in front of the couch and folding her skirt when she suddenly hears footsteps behind her. She thought it was a maid who brought the things in, so she said, "Put the things next door first, I'll pack them up before talking about it."

After a while, she was about to get up, but suddenly someone hugged her slender waist from behind. She was so scared that she screamed, but immediately a familiar laugh came: "I am **lang, I'm here to pick lotus today."

Xiao Qiao immediately breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest and said, "Mr., you scared me to death!"

"Who do you think it is?" Liu Jing smiled behind her.

"I thought I was a thief and was about to fight with my life!" Xiao Qiao turned slightly and gave him a coquettish look.

Liu Jing turned her around, hugged her in his arms, kissed her fragrant lips and asked with a smile: "Do you like this?"

"I like it very much!"

Xiao Qiao nodded gently, and she took Liu Jing's hand and walked to the window, looked at the bamboo forest outside the window, and said intoxicatedly: "I didn't expect that I would actually live in the bamboo forest, do you know? I like green bamboo the most."

"I know."

Liu Jing smiled and said, "The first time you gave me a chance was in the bamboo forest."

Xiao Qiao's pretty face suddenly turned red, she turned around and beat his chest desperately with her little pink fist, and shouted shyly: "What are you talking about nonsense! When will he ** you, please tell me clearly."

"No! I'm just kidding."

At this time, Xiao Qiao had heard the footsteps of the maid going upstairs, so she had to let Liu Jing go for the time being and settle the score with him later. She glared at him fiercely, bit her teeth gently, and whispered: "You can't just talk nonsense even if you are kidding!"

The footsteps on the stairs stopped, and it seemed that they were slowly going down again. It was probably because the maid felt something. Liu Jing held Xiao Qiao's shoulders and looked at the bamboo forest outside the window and smiled: "Even if you like it, you can't you feel tired of watching it every day?"

Xiao Qiao snuggled in her husband's arms and sighed softly, "I may feel tired of anything else, but I can't do bamboo."

“Why?”

"When I was a child, there were green bamboos in front of the house. When I was a child, I walked through the bamboo forest and there was a clear river in front of it. My mother told me since I was a child that I was born in the middle of the night. In the middle of the night, bamboo shoots were grown in the bamboo forest, so my family said that I was the soul of green bamboo. Do you know? My earliest nickname was Xiaoqing, because there was a small green bamboo growing in front of my window. Later, the small green bamboo withered. My father thought it was unlucky, so he didn't call me Xiaoqing again, and he was called A Lian from then on."

Liu Jing nodded, "So that's the case. Then I will call you Xiaoqing from now on!"

"No, I'll call me A Lian."

Xiao Qiao's red lips slightly slightly, and said coquettishly: "Xiaoqing sounds like a little green snake."

Liu Jing held back his smile and gently pointed it on the tip of her nose with his finger, "You are just a beautiful snake, which makes me fascinated."

Xiao Qiao felt warm and put her pretty face on his chest. After a moment, she stretched out her arms and put her arms around her neck, looked up at her husband. Her beautiful eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of light mist. She bit her red lips lightly, leaned close to her husband's ear and whispered: "You are coming to me tonight, I'll let you taste the taste of the beautiful snake."
