    Du Heng and Du Zhixian are in a particularly good mood these past few days. The memorial to the court for the establishment of the chastity archway has been approved, and everything is under his control.

    "Lafayette Cixi really has deep sympathy for young widows." Du Heng said to himself secretly.

    He smiled triumphantly with the imperial seal in his hand, and Du Heng couldn't get enough of the red imperial seal.

    He hurriedly greeted his master and said: "Hurry up, call the workers, and within half a month, the archway must be erected for the people of the county to see. One is to educate the people, and the other is to show performance."

    The master graciously offered his sycophant words: "Master, you are really good. You can get the imperial approval from the emperor in just a few days after taking office. This has never happened in our county for many years!"

    Du Heng shook his head happily: "This is God helping me. I must build the largest, most magnificent, and most ostentatious archway, so that everyone in Linggao County will remember me!"

    Master nodded and said, "Master, I'll go find a craftsman right away and bring it back for you to have a look at first."

    Du Heng waved his hand and said, "Go, go, I'll be waiting in the study."

    The master took the order and went out.

    Du Heng barely suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, he took out the brush and began to write.

    Busy with government affairs every day, Du Heng has not practiced calligraphy for a long time, so he decided to write a "Preface to the Lanting Pavilion".

    "It's the day, the sky is bright and the air is clear, the wind is gentle and smooth. Looking up at the vastness of the universe and looking down at the abundance of categories, so wandering eyes and bosoms are enough to entertain the audience and believe in Coca-Cola." The more Du Heng writes, the more refreshing he feels,  The running script has gradually acquired the smell of wild grass.

    "Orchid Pavilion Preface" is solemn, upright and peaceful, and the wind is smooth, making people recite it like a breeze blowing through the body, which is very suitable for Du Heng's current mood.

    Unknowingly, an hour passed, and Du Heng didn't stop writing until he heard the voice of the master reporting at the door.

    The master has invited the best stonemason in Lingao County. Du Heng discussed with the stonemason about the style and size of the archway while he was still in the heat. After he had arranged everything, it was already dinner time.

    Du Heng ate two bowls of porridge and three steamed buns in a flustered manner. The maid who was waiting next to her was stunned. She reminded Du Heng in a low voice: "Master, eat too much at night and be careful to accumulate food and make your stomach upset!"

    Du Heng pointed to his stomach and said: "My master is happy today. After another busy day, he is really hungry and can't accumulate food!"

    The next day, the construction of the Chaste Archway officially started.

    The big bluestone is picked from the deep mountains, and the carvers are also the best in Lingao County.

    After nearly half a month of "jingle-dang-dang-dang" beating, this chastity archway, which condensed Du Heng's great efforts, was finally repaired.

    The people in Linggao County treated this matter half with the mentality of watching the excitement, and half with the mentality of having nothing to do with themselves.

    Du Heng will go to the construction site every two days, striving for perfection and fineness of every part on the archway.

    After the archway was completed, Du Heng told his teacher: "The archway has been built, and the owner has not been invited to appreciate it. You can go to Jiao's house tomorrow and let the old man of Jiao's family come and see for himself. He is not satisfied with the archway I have built."  satisfy?"

    The master said: "Master, it's enough for you to be satisfied, what else do you care about the Jiao family?"

    Du Heng shook his head and said, "Hey, after all, Lie Nu is a member of Jiao's family, so we still need some courtesy. Find Yin Yang to choose a good day, and then hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony."

    The master said: "Understood, master, I will do it now!"

    After finishing speaking, Master rushed to Jiao's house.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
