Possessed by Luffy's fruit, I went crazy in ancient times

Chapter 74 Unexpected
  Magistrate Liu has been busy these days with settling the people of Xiaocheng.

Winter has come, and many of the third-class people in Xiaocheng have lost their living space due to the control of the guards. Therefore, he mobilized many merchants in the city to donate money to help the people tide over the difficulties.

Magistrate Liu has a high prestige in Xiaocheng. The reason why merchants in Xiaocheng have been able to make money continuously over the years and the merchants in Xiaocheng have less constraints in Jin than in other places is because of Magistrate Liu.

Magistrate Liu dared to negotiate terms with His Majesty, especially the terms of annual tax payment.

This moved the merchants very much.

Therefore, as soon as County Magistrate Liu mentioned donating money, the merchants in Xiaocheng all started to donate their money. In just two days, the difficulties of the third-class people in Xiaocheng were almost solved.

When he saw Xu Yihuan on the horse with no one, only Xiaochun following him, he stiffened and immediately dismounted.

"Old Liu, I haven't seen you all day." Xu Yihuan had become familiar with County Magistrate Liu recently, and her speech began to lose its sense of propriety.

As soon as County Magistrate Liu heard that he called him Lao Liu, he didn't care about it. As soon as he heard that she was out shopping for items for the return trip, he took her to visit the shops in Xiaocheng and bought all the necessary items.

He also ordered someone to be sent to Xiaocheng Mansion. It was past noon after the two of them finished shopping.

When they arrived at the yamen gate of Xiaocheng Mansion, they saw Yeshang standing at the yamen gate waiting for Xu Yihuan.

"We're back. Marshal Xue has decided to return to the court tomorrow." Ye Shang glanced at Magistrate Liu who was following Xu Yihuan, with a look of displeasure on his face.

When Xu Yihuan saw Ye Shang, the smile on her face faded, she nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I'll pack my things today." She treated Ye Shang the same way these days, avoiding him more and confronting him less.

Xu Yihuan didn't know what was wrong. She seemed to be relieved since the imperial edict came that day.

Yeshang was very kind to her, but when she thought that he didn't understand women and was naive and stupid, Xu Yihuan became a little angry, especially when she thought that Yeshang had no boundaries between men and women.

She felt a little repulsive in her heart. This repulsion was not that she didn't like it, but more of helplessness.

County Magistrate Liu saw Xu Yihuan's thoughts and did not take Yeshang seriously. After saluting Yeshang, he followed him into Xiaocheng Mansion.

The things they bought had been delivered to them, and Xu Yihuan took Xiaochun to tidy up the things. Xu Yihuan was caught off guard by the sudden announcement that her class teacher would return to the court. She thought it would take another two days at the earliest.

Returning to court early not only caught Xu Yihuan off guard, but also surprised Marshal Xue. The three princes were unexpectedly quiet this time and didn't even make a fuss. They even showed a lot of humility when asking for food from the soldiers.

Marshal Xue thought that the three men had changed their gender after this incident, and he found out after asking about it.

The story of the three people being humiliated by the shopkeeper in the city has already spread among the army.

Originally, Marshal Xue just ordered people not to spread the news in Xiao City, but after returning to the army, the guards around the three princes spread the news themselves.

This spread spread throughout the military camp.

Later, the soldiers became more and more careless and directly discussed the three princes as invisible people in the army.

Although the Sixth Prince was beaten, his body could still move and he could still come out to inquire for information.

Inside the tent, the three of them could faintly hear the soldiers outside the tent starting to brag, shout, and curse. Occasionally, they would even reveal that they were "eating the King's meal" and "being beaten."
  "Fake prince" and other words, he ordered the sixth prince to come out of the camp to inquire.

The Sixth Prince was very angry at first, but after he left the camp, except for the soldiers who stopped talking when he got close to him, they immediately started discussing again as soon as he walked away.

The sixth prince went back and told his two elder brothers about the incident, and all three of them felt embarrassed.

Then he thought that even the personal guards around him began to discuss the behavior of the three of them, and he suddenly felt ashamed. The three of them had nowhere to hide, so they simply made a decision to return to the court in advance.

When Marshal Xue learned about this, he was even shocked. He did not expect that the three princes, who did all kinds of evil, would mind the soldiers' rumors.

Marshal Xue sighed in his heart. If he had known that these three people were like this, why would he have to hand over military power and military expenses and just let the army officers start spreading rumors?

He secretly began to regret that he did not personally participate in the battle in Xiaocheng. When he thought about the more than a hundred dead soldiers in Yeshang's hands, he felt heartbroken.

In anger, Marshal Xue ordered several soldiers to start spreading rumors around the three princes' camps. The general idea was that the three princes were incompetent and could not defeat Captain Xu, and that the three princes did all kinds of evil things, depriving the army of food and pay, and killing soldiers. Finally, he also The blame was passed to Yeshang and Xu Yihuan.

When Yeshang and Xu Yihuan reported to the three princes' tent that they were distributing rations, winter clothes, and doctors to the soldiers, the three princes were so angry that they howled in the tent.

But there is nothing to be done.

Marshal Xue was so angry when he heard that the three of them were angry, and the depression in his heart had been relieved a lot these days.

The next day.

As soon as the genius was polished, Xu Yihuan was called out by Xiaochun.

Although you have already prepared everything for your master's return to court, Xu Yihuan is a woman after all, so County Magistrate Liu specially prepared a carriage for Xu Yihuan and two maidservants for her.

All the soldiers in the army are men, and no matter how well Ye Shang's soldiers serve them, it is not the women who are inconvenienced.

Therefore, Xiaochun had the help of her maid, which made her feel a lot more relaxed along the way.

Xu Yihuan didn't care, but when she thought of the maid hanging around in front of her, she wasn't used to it.

She is a modern person and can't stand the groveling behavior of ancient maids, so as soon as the maids got on the car, she asked people to change that habit. With Xiaochun's help, the maids and Xu Yihuan started chatting at once.

Only then did Xu Yihuan find out that Magistrate Liu was over thirty and had not yet married, and that he suddenly came to Xiaocheng to do business. Because of his outstanding business talent, he stayed in Xiaocheng and led the merchants in Xiaocheng to make money.

Later, after Xiaocheng became rich, it was also County Magistrate Liu who led the merchants to discuss taxes with the Jin royal family.

Xu Yihuan's face was full of surprise when he heard this. He didn't expect that the usually serious Magistrate Liu was actually a business wizard. When he thought about it, she was a modern person and had many ideas that could be used to make money in business. She wanted to give it a try more and more. Does she have any talent for business?

Magistrate Liu didn't have to go back to Kyoto with Yeshang, but he was invited by Xu Yihuan. This time he also went with him, but the main purpose was not to accompany Xu Yihuan back, but mainly to learn about Xu Yihuan's life experience.

The information reported back by the spies was limited, and the information from Taifu's Mansion was even more watertight.

He didn't expect that one day he would have trouble trying to find out the information.

There is very little news about Xu Yihuan in the Taifu Mansion. Many people only know that the legitimate daughter of the Taifu Mansion is named Xu Chuan. As for what Xu Chuan looks like? How's the talent?

Everyone knew nothing, not only everyone knew nothing, but many people in the Taifu's residence also knew very little about the concubine.

No one knows where Miss Xu Chuan studied? Where is the mother?

Everything was like a riddle, and it was this riddle that aroused County Magistrate Liu's curiosity even more, just as he was curious about the whereabouts of his benefactor.
