Liu Xinlian said the three "good" words, and his views on Fu Wan have changed drastically. Although Liu Xin has spoken with her sister-in-law since seeing Fu Wan, they are actually just polite remarks from his mouth, but there is no answer to Fu Wan in his heart. A little respect, Liu Hua is the princess of Yang'an, who is the emperor of Han Heng. Liu Xin calls Fu Wan the sister-in-law, which means he recognizes Liu Hua's sister. In this way, his Han family clan status is even more important. It was nailed down, but Liu Xin did not expect that after Fuwan suffered the pain of losing a child, he would be able to dissuade himself from adding too much burden to the people, which is very valuable.
Cheng Yu already smiled on the sidelines: "Master Fu, you worry too much. Forcibly enlisting people’s husbands and plundering people’s wealth, my father-in-law has always hated the most. The reconstruction of Chang'an and Luoyang naturally requires a lot of manpower. It’s inevitable, but my Patriarch’s Guild will give out wages to all the civilian husbands. Don’t worry, with the wealth of the entire Jingzhou as the backing, rebuilding the two cities is just a trivial matter.”
Fu Wan asked in surprise, "Is Jingzhou really so rich?"
Of course Liu Xin would not use the money from Jingzhou's finances to rebuild Chang'an and Luoyang. After more than half a year of war, the burden of Jingzhou government treasury has been quite heavy. Not to mention the direct consumption during the war, just the compensation for the casualties and their families. It is a huge amount of expenditure. The money and goods needed to rebuild the two cities can only be spent from the seized family properties of Dong Zhuo and others, but Liu Xin can’t say clearly, because these people’s family properties are also collected by the people.
These circumstances are naturally clear to Cheng Yu. He said this to help Liu Xin relieve the siege, and what Cheng Yu said was backed by Jingzhou's financial resources instead of using Jingzhou's financial resources to rebuild Chang'an and Luoyang. Sure enough, I will be wrong,
Liu Xin gave a thumbs up to Cheng Yu and said to Fu Wan: "Sister Zhang, I’m afraid you haven’t been to Xiangyang yet, so, tomorrow I will have someone escort you to Xiangyang, so that you can enjoy the scenery of Jingzhou. You can reunite with your family and kill two birds with one stone. Why not do it?"
Fu Wan, of course, has no objection to such an arrangement, and tears down his face with gratitude.
After Wuguan was conquered, it was a smooth journey from Chang'an to Xiangyang. Liu Xin accepted the advice of the counsellors and took the seat of Chang'an. Although he could not return to Xiangyang himself, it did not hinder the transmission of information and intelligence back.
With the defeat of Cao Cao, Xiangyang City has resumed its former hustle and bustle, even a bit more lively than in the past.
The three-day imperial examination is over, but the Confucian scholars, warriors, and craftsmen who came to take the exam are still waiting for the final results in Xiangyang. According to regulations, this list will be announced in seven days. With exhausted energy, these people who took the exam would naturally inevitably indulge, so the business of the brothel pub has improved exceptionally.
Not only that, the news that Xiangyang City was safe and sound after two encounters with powerful enemies has gradually spread. In the troubled times, some big families in surrounding counties and even other states began to move their brains to move to Xiangyang, the houses and land in Xiangyang. It skyrocketed by two or three times almost overnight, but still in short supply. After all, for these wealthy people, their lives are more important. It is more practical to find a safe place than to make a lot of money. many,
Ma Yun's mood also gradually relaxed. The news of defeating Cao Cao this time spread. It is estimated that no blind prince would dare to come to Xiangyang to fight for Xiangyang, and Liu Rui, who worried her most, was escorted by Sun Ce. He returned to Xiangyang safely. Ma Yun was originally going to be severely punished for Liu Rui’s willfulness, but considering that she made a mistake, Zhao Yun copied Cao Cao’s back path, which was considered a merit and only shut her down. Days of confinement,
Zhu Qian, who was still worried a few days ago, was reluctant to get up with her daughter and said to Ma Yun: "Ma'am, Ruier is very active by nature. If she is closed for two days, she may be sick. I beg Madam to recite her youth and ignorance. Forgive her this time,"
Ma Yun sighed and said, "How do you say, this time I won’t teach her a lesson. Next time she can poke a hole in the sky, it will be too late to cry. I don’t want to do this to her, just let her out. , She has to find a suitable reason, otherwise she won’t remember the mistake she made this time in her heart."
While talking, Qiao'er ran in violently and said loudly, "Madam, madam, the master has received a letter."
Ma Yun and Zhu Qian said with joy, "Where is the letter?"
Qiao'er hesitated: "The master has only one letter, it's for his wife,"
Ma Yun took the letter and took a look. There were only three Arabic numerals "520" written on a large piece of paper. Ma Yun's face was slightly red, and there were crystal teardrops in her eyes. This kind of number game was in their original era. It’s not very popular anymore, and now I suddenly see it, but I have a different feeling.
Qiaoer saw Ma Yun looked at the letter paper silently, and couldn't help but ask: "Madam, what did the master say in the letter,"
Ma Yun had noticed that Zhu Qian was slightly emotionally disappointed, and then gently closed the letter, pretending to be flat and asked: "Nothing, is there anything else?"
Qiaoer hurriedly handed over another pamphlet and said: "The master also asked people to bring back some jewels to the ladies, even the maids have a share,"
Zhu Qian has always understood that her identity cannot be compared with Ma Yun, but the child in her belly is about to be born, and after Zhang Ji's pulse, Shiyou** is a male baby, and Zhu Qian is worried that she is there. Liu Xin has no place in his heart, and this child will not be favored by Liu Xin in the future. The girls who were born before Zhu Qian have not thought so much about it. After all, girls will marry someday, and men Children are different. Even if they don’t have the luxury of inheriting the position, they always hope to be able to divide more family property. Since knowing that they are pregnant with a male child, Zhu Qian’s mind has undergone a little change.
It was heard that Liu Xin also had jewelry for them. Zhu Qian's mood calmed down. This shows that Liu Xin is still thinking about them. The changes in Zhu Qian's face can't escape Ma Yun's eyes, but Ma Yun doesn't. To talk about breaking,
The jewels recorded in the booklet were personally picked by Liu Xin from the Chang’an Taishi’s mansion. There are gold ornaments, pearls, and agate tortoise shells. Each piece is rare and rare. Each piece of jewelry is marked on the back. To whom, even Qiao'er and Ying'er have a share in the housekeepers, and among the children, Liu Rui is the only one who has prepared a copy, because Liu Ruinian is a big girl waiting to be married and needs it. Dressed up, obviously Liu Xin had a lot of brains.
Ma Yun hurriedly saw this place, suddenly her eyes lit up, and said to Zhu Qian: "I have a way to get rid of Rui'er. The master clearly remembers this list. He also brought a few pieces of jewelry to Rui'er. Asking her to call out Ruier in the name of trying on jewellery, I think I don’t know, so it’s fine."
Zhu Qian didn't expect Liu Xin to remember to prepare a few pieces of jewelry for Liu Rui's stepdaughter. She was overjoyed and promised to walk out happily.
Ma Yun continued to look forward, but saw that Zhu Rong’s name was also written on the list, but a pile of silver jewelry was prepared for her. Ma Yun nodded thoughtfully, and said to Qiao'er: "Why are you doing this recently? , You go and invite her here,"
Zhu Ge is an unstoppable temper. Last time Ma Yun was confined for three days in confinement, she had to run to the martial arts ground to play with the sky painting halberd. Now there is nothing wrong with her. I want her to sit in the house. A troublesome matter, Ma Yun used a lot of brains before he came up with an idea to make her be responsible for protecting the safety of these women and children in the backyard of the State Shepherd’s Mansion. Zhu Rongdor was also pleased to take the order, taking her four halls with him every day. Sister, patrolling in the backyard with her helmet and armor. It is precisely because of this "important task" that Zhu Rong did not appear at the gate of the city when Cao Cao aggressively attacked, otherwise Ma Yun would have a headache.
Although she found a leader to fetter Zhu Rong's body in the prefecture, but also let her mix the backyard of the prefecture thoroughly. Zhu Rong has always been very carefree, and will not care too much about everything, the ladies and the children I am willing to be close to her,
Although she is the daughter of the patriarch of the barbarian clan, she grew up in a difficult environment. Zhu Rong also needs to master many survival skills in the wild. The abilities of house sparrows, bird eggs, and frog fishing have become the bond for her to build a good relationship with Liu Yu’s children. Even Liu Yu, who is quite wary of her, now follows her ass after school, taking one bite at a time. "Auntie" was so happy,
After a few days, she had almost turned around the various courtyards of the prefecture and animal husbandry. There were only two places that she had not visited. One was the two-story building, which was not only the ancestral hall of the Liu family, but also preserved. With many secrets of Liu Xin and Ma Yun, no one is allowed to enter on non-critical days. I wish Rong no matter how playful he is, but he dare not violate this rule.
There is also a remote courtyard with the door locked, but occasionally you will see maids delivering something to eat inside. These maids don’t enter the yard, they just open a small window next to the yard door. Open, pass the food in, and then take away some dishes,
Zhu Rong couldn't help being curious, wondering if there was an important person in it. She was embarrassed to ask Ma Yun, so she instructed Zhu Yan to inquire about the maids in the house.
The maids were reluctant to say at first. They couldn't stand Zhu Yan's hard work and gave some small silver ornaments. Then they heard some news and hurriedly told Zhu Rong, saying: "Sister, I've inquired clearly, then There are three girls in the yard who have been confined for half a year. I heard that the master ordered them to sit in confinement."
Zhu Rong couldn't help but said in surprise: "I was confined for half a year. Madam kept me in confinement for three days. I couldn't bear it. It was closed for half a year, so I couldn't drive people crazy. What serious crimes did those girls commit? , The master wants to do such a cruel hand,"
Zhu Yan shook his head and said, "Sister, I only inquired about this, and then I asked them to refuse to say it. They seemed to be very wary of those girls. Also, this yard is said to be except for the wife and the three. Madam, no one is allowed to go in, not even the second lady."
The more he couldn't figure out the situation, the more itchy and uncomfortable Zhu Rong's heart became. He waved his hand again and again and said, "No, no, I must find a way to go in and see who is inside."
