Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Chapter 174 Visiting the House

Now that's great. Originally, Xunfeng came here to supervise the servants and maids to clean the house, but now he is here to tour the house. Xunfeng is happy to have some free time.

The servant respectfully gestured "please" and said, "Master Xunfeng, please come in!"

Xunfeng smiled and nodded, then walked inside. The house was enormous, with several entrances to the front yard alone. Passing through a moon gate, one entered a garden filled with rockeries, lush flowers and trees, and a small, exquisite pavilion nestled in the middle of a pond.

Xun Feng couldn't help but admire, "You've done a great job arranging this garden." The servant quickly smiled and said, "Of course, the master ordered us to carefully decorate this garden."

Xunfeng strolled leisurely through the garden, his eyes lingering on the beautiful scenery around him, but a trace of doubt arose in his heart: Their master? Wasn't he the prince? When had the prince ever dealt with them?

Confused, Xun Feng suddenly turned around, staring intently at the servant beside him, and asked in an unusually stern tone, "Your master? Your master hasn't even moved in yet, so when did he order you to arrange all this so meticulously?"

The servant's face instantly turned pale upon hearing this, clearly realizing he'd just said something wrong. He hurriedly raised his hand and slapped his mouth several times, muttering, "Oh my! Look at my stupid mouth! Damn it! I made such a big mistake! The master bought us because he wanted us to do our best to help the master solve his problems. So, of course, we must wholeheartedly and meticulously prepare everything for the master, so that the master can move into his new home with peace of mind at any time!"

Although Xunfeng's confusion was not completely eliminated, looking at the seemingly smart and professionally trained servant in front of him, he thought to himself that it might be difficult to get more useful information if he continued to ask questions.

Rather than wasting time and energy on this, it would be better to put this matter aside for now, wait for an opportunity to report to the prince, and further investigate the true identities of these people. After all, any factor that may threaten the safety or interests of the palace must not be taken lightly.

Thinking of this, Xunfeng decided not to investigate further for the time being and continued walking forward. The uneasy servant saw that Xunfeng did not ask any more questions, and prayed in his heart that he would not ruin his master's plan because of his words, otherwise he would not be able to escape punishment.

This house can be said to have a rigorous layout and gorgeous decoration. As soon as you enter the gate, you will see a spacious front yard with bluestone bricks on the ground and tall locust trees on both sides.

Walk through the front yard and enter the main hall. The main hall is spacious and bright, with famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls and thick carpets on the floor.

Behind the main hall is the backyard, which has a small garden with various flowers and trees, and a small pond with goldfish.

Passing through the backyard, you enter the fourth courtyard, which is the master bedroom and study. The bedroom is decorated very warmly, and the study is filled with books and stationery.

The last entrance is the kitchen and warehouse. The kitchen has various cooking utensils and tableware, and the warehouse is full of food and sundries.

The entire house is decorated very gorgeously, with exquisite patterns carved on the doors and windows, silk and brocade hanging on the walls, and thick carpets on the floor.

Xun Feng couldn't help but secretly exclaim in his heart: "This efficiency is simply ridiculously high!"

However, he soon fell into deep thought again: "Who on earth was so clever in arranging them on the street market so that I could buy them back smoothly? The key point is that this person's arrangement is obviously extremely beneficial to us, but who could it be?"

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed through Xunfeng's mind, and he seemed to have found the answer instantly. He thought to himself, the only person who could send someone to assist his prince would be Lord Guo, the prince's former subordinate. Besides that, perhaps only Prince Guangping had such ability and motivation!

It took Xunfeng nearly half an hour to complete his tour of the entire mansion. He nodded contentedly and said with a smile, "Well, you've done a great job. Here are some rewards. Take them and use them to reward everyone!" Before he finished speaking, Xunfeng pulled out a heavy ingot of silver from his pocket and handed it to the servant.

When the servant saw the silver, his face lit up with smiles. He quickly bowed and said respectfully, "Thank you for your gift, sir. We will work even harder in the future!"

Xunfeng was about to let the servant go, but then he changed his mind and ordered, "Wait! I have something else to tell you. Quickly prepare three rooms for the masters to live in. Be sure to choose rooms that are spacious and bright with good lighting."

The servant nodded quickly, then suddenly seemed to remember something important and cautiously inquired, "Excuse me, sir, are our masters male or female? Do they have any particular preferences for the furnishings in the house? I can tidy up the house according to your wishes."

Faced with the servant's question, Xunfeng couldn't help but feel a flicker of doubt: Was this servant genuinely concerned, or was he simply trying to extract more information from him? After a moment's thought, he replied, "There are three guests coming this time. One is a man, so his residence needs to be simple, elegant, and grand. The other two are both young women, so their homes should be made cozy and inviting to ensure their comfort." Because he was wary of the servant, Xunfeng's words were rather vague...

Upon hearing this, the servant understood the meaning and quickly responded, "As you command, Master Swift Wind! I will do my utmost to take care of it. Later today, I hope you will personally inspect it and see if it meets your expectations. If there are any shortcomings, please let me know, and I will do my best to improve it."

Xun Feng raised his lips slightly and nodded gently, indicating that he was aware of the matter. He then said slowly, "That's great. You can go about your business now. I'll be leaving now. I'll come back at dusk to check on your progress!"

After saying that, Xunfeng turned around and walked towards the door. His steps were steady and light, as if a breeze was blowing by.

The servant followed closely behind, not daring to show any sign of negligence. Only after escorting Xunfeng outside the mansion and personally closing the door did the servant breathe a long sigh of relief, secretly congratulating himself: "Thank goodness, thank goodness, Master Xunfeng didn't hold on to his fault. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have been doomed!" However, no matter what, he had to report the situation to his master.

Thinking of this, the servant hurriedly ran towards the door in a corner of the backyard.
