Mu Ge moved her gaze and was too lazy to ask further.
Luodu is the Capital City of Qin Country. It’s planned as a city within a city.
It’s divided into the Outer City, Inner City, and the Imperial City.
In short, the Outer City is where the civilians live, and it’s the main commercial bustling area. The Inner City is where officials reside. The Imperial City, naturally, is the territory of the Imperial Family.
Within the Imperial City, there’s also the Imperial Palace, which is the Emperor’s lair.
Although the Mu Mansion has been granted the title of Duke Yongning, it’s not part of the Imperial Family, so it can only reside in the Inner City. Yet, the location of the Mu Mansion is very close to the Imperial City, in the best area of the Inner City. The area it occupies is remarkably vast; according to Mu Qingge, she’s grown so big but never fully explored the Mu Mansion.
Of course, Mu Ge could also understand that Mu Qingge’s ambition wasn’t to roam around the Mu Mansion, but to ’make her name famous’ outside.
In any case, the Mu Mansion is huge!
"Establishment of the hereditary Duke Yongning Mansion..." Standing under the tiered stairs, looking at the stone monument after dismounting her horse. Mu Ge raised her chin, gazing at the majestic, solemn gate.
The eaves are more than a zhang high, red columns stand erect, black lacquered copper nails, and beast-headed door rings. On both sides of the gate, there are side doors. On the seventh layer of steps, each one has a statue of an exotic beast, imposing and fierce, silent and murderous.
Gazing at the gate, Mu Ge seemed to feel the sound of war drums, the clarion call of charge, with her blood instinctively surging. She once was a soldier, and now the Mu Mansion is a military family; she seemed to find a resonance between Mu Ge and the Mu Mansion.
Above the gate, hung three plaques.
The topmost one, vermillion lacquered with golden characters, is what Mu Ge had murmured earlier.
The establishment by royal decree is an honor many yearn for but cannot obtain.
The Royal Family’s bestowment represents the Mu Family’s favored status among the major families in Luodu.
The second plaque, black lacquer as board, vermillion as ink. It reads ’National Guardian General Mansion’. These words carry a sharp and fierce intent, as if one could see the bloody battlefield.
The final plaque, compared to the previous two, is truly understated. It is merely a plaque of ordinary material, inscribed with ’Mu Mansion’.
"Enter, or have you forgotten our home after being away for a few days?" Mu Xiong noticed Mu Ge remained motionless, then patted her shoulder, urging her to enter the mansion.
