Soon. These inspections were driven over, and they were escorted to the Taishou Mansion with those splashes to be disposed of by Cai Mao, and the fifty taels of silver that had been buried were also taken back. Holding the five tickets, Liu Hua couldn't cry or laugh, he couldn't imagine that the dignified princess of Han would fall to such a point, and she was blackmailed by a few scoundrels, and even she and her daughter almost asked someone to rob them.

Yan Rui didn't know the situation of the Fu family, and seeing that the situation had calmed down, she cautiously asked, "Your Royal Highness Princess, why don't you bring a few guards when you're away?" ”

In fact, Ma Yun not only arranged a residence and maids and servants for their family, but also arranged some guards, but Fu Wan always felt that these people were sent by Liu Xin to monitor them, so he left them at home when he came out today. Hearing Yan Rui ask, Liu Hua's face flushed slightly, and he said stubbornly: "I often hear people say that Xiangyang City is the safest place in the world, and it's just to watch an illusion, where there will be any danger, alas, I didn't expect it to be just a vain." ”

Minchan, who had been standing coldly next to her without saying a word, heard this, and felt a little unhappy in her heart. These days, she has heard and witnessed that in Xiangyang City, whether it is a family of scholars, ordinary people, or merchants, it can be seen from the smiles on their faces that they are very satisfied with their current life. From this point of view alone, regardless of other places for the time being, at least Xiangyang is thriving under Liu Xin's governance, which is not bad at all compared to Luoyang back then.

Seeing Liu Hua's disdain for Xiangyang, Minchan couldn't help but say: "The world is so big, where are there not a few small people, is it worth making such a fuss?" ”

Through what she has seen and heard in the past few days, Liu Hua's overall feeling about Xiangyang is still good, but the incident she encountered today really frightened her. In addition, she was born in the royal family, and she has always been used to being high, even when she was Xu Huang's prisoner, she was not willing to lower her noble head, and she spoke even more openly, saying whatever she wanted, and what she said just now did not mean that she was disdainful of Xiangyang.

According to Liu Hua's past temperament, if someone sneered at her like this, she would jump out and refute a few words. It's just that the encounter during this period of time has taught her a little lesson, and when the words came to her mouth, she still held back. Because she always thought that Yan Rui was Liu Xin's concubine, and Yan Rui was quite respectful to this veiled mysterious girl, only that this woman was someone Liu Xin was very close to, and now that their family was under Liu Xin's fence, how could they not swallow their anger.

Yan Rui also knew at this time that the Fu Wan family was watching the illusion show, so she caused this incident, so she couldn't help but turn her head and said: "Miss Minchan, can you invite the princess's family to go to the private room to watch, the princess is a golden body after all, and it is always a little inappropriate to mix with those common people." ”

The establishment of this illusion hall has a lot to do with Liu Xin, Yu Ji has changed from a charlatan to a "big artist" in Liu Xin's mouth, and naturally he is even more grateful to Liu Xin. At that time, there were no movies, television, the Internet, and game rooms, and the spiritual life was very scarce. There are a lot of children in the state pastor's mansion, and they often clamored to come to the illusion hall to play in their spare time, so Yu Ji left two private rooms in the state pastor's mansion in the museum to ensure that the people in the house can have seats at any time.

Minchan didn't know about these things at first, but the captain of the personal guard who accompanied her knew about it, and when he learned that Minchan and the others wanted to watch the illusion show, he decided to take them directly through the VIP passage into the private room. Listening to Yan Rui's proposal, Mink Chan hesitated for a moment and turned her head to look at the captain of the personal guard.

The captain of the personal guard had received Ma Yun's special instructions in advance, as long as Minchan and the others did not run away or anything like that, they could try their best to meet any requirements, so he nodded slightly.

Only then did Minchan say to Liu Hua: "Since it is Her Royal Highness the Princess, then please come with us." ”

Today's encounter originally made Fu Wan and his wife not interested, but several children, including Fu Shou, were full of expectations, and seeing the little face of the young son who had not dried his tears, Liu Hua's heart couldn't help but be sour, and he also nodded.

Illusion is the magic of later generations, and after two years of development, the illusion hall has added juggling and other projects, and when I learned that people from the state pastoral mansion came to watch, Yu Ji took out his housekeeping skills and performed on stage in person. The wonderful performance not only made the children laugh, but also swept away the unhappiness of the Fuwan couple. Lu Lingqi in the private room next door, a pair of small hands were even red, and she immediately changed her mind, she didn't want to learn to dance anymore, and wanted to "change her career" to come to the illusion hall to learn illusion, and in the future, when she was hungry, she would be able to conjure up a table of deliciousness. If Yan Rui hadn't stopped screaming, she would probably have to worship Yu Ji as a teacher on the spot.

When the lights came on, Fu Wan was surprised to find that the entire illusion hall was actually full, and there were many people who looked like ordinary people, not very rich, and couldn't help but stop an old man passing by him and asked: "This uncle, the ticket to the illusion hall costs two taels of silver, how can you be willing to come and see it?" ”

The old man laughed and said, "You're from out of town." You outsiders naturally need two taels of silver to come to see it once, but we Xiangyang locals have a free ticket every year, and the ticket that my family got is exactly today, so I brought my grandson to come and see. ”

Only then did I understand that it was no wonder that tickets were so tight, and free tickets also had to occupy seats, so there were naturally fewer seats for paid tickets. In fact, this old man is not entirely right, in addition to Xiangyang County, other counties also have free tickets. Liu Xin's original intention of setting up the illusion hall is to let the general public recognize those charlatan tricks by watching illusion performances, if the common people look down on illusion performances, then his goal will be difficult to achieve, and if it is completely free, it will cause overcrowding, so he came up with this method of issuing free tickets, and can also control the number of viewers of each performance.

Of course, Fu Wan couldn't think of it so far-reaching, and Liu Hua couldn't think of it, he only felt that Liu Xin's approach was a little unreasonable, and couldn't help asking: "Is this Liu Zhou Mu really so good to the people?" I didn't believe it. ”

The old man suddenly blushed, and said angrily: "You foreigners, don't slander Lord Liu!" Old man, I have lived for such a long time, and it is the first time I have encountered such a good official. Since Mr. Liu arrived in Xiangyang, we have not worried about food or clothing, and our lives have been better day by day. I used to not be able to eat meat once a year, but now I have no problem eating meat every day. Lord Liu has done a lot of good things, and he is too lazy to tell you strangers. ”

Liu Hua was ridiculed by an ordinary old man, his face was a little unbearable, and he said: "You keep saying that Lord Liu is good, but only you Xiangyang people benefit, what is the benefit to the people of the world." ”

When these words were spoken, Liu Hua himself felt that the words were a little strong. But seeing that the old man pursed his lips, he said: "That is the blessing that our people in Xiangyang have cultivated for several lifetimes, and God sent Lord Liu to be the pastor of Jingzhou, if you want the people of the world to feel the benefits of Lord Liu, unless Lord Liu becomes the emperor!" ”

A farmer-like man who followed the old man and left the scene hurriedly said, "Old man Wang, go quickly, go quickly, don't say these crazy things." ”

Another person said, "Old man Wang, you haven't been drinking today, why are you talking about drinking, don't cause trouble." ”

Although the tone of these people's voices was tense, they could not be heard to be a little afraid, and it was obvious that they often talked like this when there were no outsiders.

Wang Laohan said disdainfully: "It's just talking, what is there to be afraid of." In fact, everyone doesn't think like this in their hearts, if Lord Liu really becomes the emperor, my old man will be at peace even if he dies. ”

A few people around saw that Fu Wan and his party were all fresh-faced, and they were worried that Wang Laohan would cause trouble, so they dragged his grandfather and grandson to the outside of the illusion hall.

Fu Wan and Liu Hua glanced at each other, a little at a loss, until Yan came over to greet them, and gradually came back to their senses. With this afternoon's experience, Liu Hua was very willing to go with them, after all, the guards they brought were all five big and three thick, and with these people by their side, their sense of security had risen sharply by several levels, but the mysterious girl who was veiled never said a word from beginning to end, as if she was too lazy to pay attention to their family.

In fact, Minchan is not a proud woman, on the contrary, due to the training she received since childhood, she is very easy-going and has a sweet mouth. In the past, in the governor's mansion, those maids didn't want to see her, just because she was too beautiful and jealous. Now, Minchan has suddenly regained her freedom, and the maids in the house don't know whether this is the meaning of the lady or the master, so they naturally dare not despise her anymore.

After more than half a year of lonely life, Minchan no longer has the mission assigned by Wang Yun firmly in mind as when she first arrived at the state pastor's mansion. Without the fetters of that mission, Minchan lived more easily than ever before, smiling at people, and gradually became popular in the state pastor's mansion.

But in the face of Liu Hua, the noble princess of the Han Dynasty, Diao Chan was very stingy and refused to even give her a smile, for only one reason, that is, Liu Hua just said bad things about Xiangyang. It's probably that the more you can't get it, the more precious she feels, and it's been three years since she came here, no matter how hard she tries, it's hard to win Liu Xin's favor. Even Minchan herself didn't know when she began to worry about Liu Xin, and sometimes she would dream of his handsome and resolute face at night, and even she couldn't tolerate others saying even a bad word about Liu Xin, even if that person was the princess of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Hua only regarded Minchan as the young lady of the state pastor's mansion, so he didn't pay attention to her performance, as the highest official in Jingzhou, it is natural for the girls in the family to be arrogant, and Liu Hua himself came over like this.

There was nothing to say all the way, and when I returned home, the two young sons had their own maids to lead them to play in the back, and Fu Shou had been a queen for more than a year, and he liked to sit quietly, so he chatted with his parents in the front hall. Thinking of what those ordinary people said in the illusion hall today, Fu Shou couldn't help but say: "Father, mother, the child thinks that Liu Xin is likely to be the emperor soon, and his ambition is already known to passers-by. ”
