Chapter 442: Opening the Mansion

The emperor summoned Liu Xian and Ma Guiren into the palace to meet, which was actually equivalent to announcing that from now on, they would officially enter the stage of secret fighting. In other words, on the bright side, they will be kind to Liu Xian, but secretly they will desperately stumble on Liu Xian and try their best to put Liu Xian to death.

In their hearts, they always thought that Liu Xian was dead, so even if they showed favor to Liu Xian on the surface, even if they publicly called Liu Xian the king's brother, this seemed to give Liu Xian some status promotion and convenience, but what was the use? As long as Liu Xian is dead, then everything is over, and it can be regarded as the end of a matter of the emperor's heart.

However, how could Liu Xian be easily killed by them? In fact, for Liu Xian, it makes no difference to him whether he was summoned by the emperor or not, because from the very beginning, Liu Xian has always been wary of them.

Liu Xian believes that they will regret their hypocrisy this time.

In fact, it is not too difficult for Liu Xian to deal with them. The most important thing is not to let them catch some of their handles on the open side, so that they can't deal with themselves on the open side. Secretly trying to kill yourself, I'm afraid it's really not easy.

Wang Yue is Liu Xian's biggest reliance on daring to come to the capital, there is a super master guarding in secret, and it is really not so easy to want Liu Xian's life. What's more, Liu Xian himself, even if a super master wants to assassinate him, it is not so easy.

Liu Xian's strength as a third-rate military general is true, but some of Liu Xian's abilities can make Liu Xian seek good fortune and avoid evil, and turn danger into disaster. If it is said that it is impossible for Liu Xian to defeat a super master, even first- and second-rate masters, Liu Xian has no chance to defeat them. However, it was not easy for them to kill Liu Xian.

If Liu Xian has never been plotted by them, then now they have given Liu Xian some identity names, but it is equivalent to really helping Liu Xian, which will make Liu Xian more convenient when he does something.

What's more, Liu Xian doesn't need to be an enemy against them, what he needs is to let himself spend three or four years well, then everything will be clear.

After returning from the palace, there was nothing to do, and Ma Guiren also began to work on the affairs of the congratulatory banquet of Liu Xian's Marquis Wuyong's mansion.

Three days later, Liu Xian's Marquis Wuyong's mansion was officially opened.

The emperor's calligraphy is still good, and the four characters of the Marquis of Wuyong's mansion written by him are still relatively atmospheric and elegant, but the pen is slightly insufficient, but this is also the norm. The current emperor is no longer the emperor of the period when he destroyed the Dou brothers and sisters, Liu Hong at that time was actually still ambitious, planning to govern the Han Dynasty well, and still wanted to be a good monarch and a Ming monarch. In terms of ability, it is estimated that there are also people, not the kind of people who do not learn and have no skills.

But it's a pity that the reality is very skinny, when he thought that after eradicating the Dou brothers and sisters who controlled the government, he could really and thoroughly grasp the imperial power of the Han Dynasty and realize his dream of working hard and rejuvenating the Han Dynasty. Only then did he realize that things were not at all what he had thought.

As the saying goes, there is no Butcher Zhang, and there is Butcher Li. There are no relatives, and there are eunuchs. It turned out that the eunuchs who had always supported him, the eunuchs who helped him destroy the Dou brothers and sisters, and the powerful ministers in the court, they were not so kind to support and assist him, the emperor, to govern the Han Dynasty, they were actually all for their own interests.

Many things, it turned out that his emperor had the final say, whenever he wanted to revive the dynasty and make some changes, those eunuchs and ministers would always have their reasons to stop it. Even if they don't stop it on the surface, there will always be their justified arguments that will make him have to put some plans on hold. At this time, he also realized that his ideals and ambitions turned out to be unworkable.

If you look at the emperors of the Han Dynasty from a certain standpoint, especially the emperors of the Eastern Han Dynasty, after counting the years, there are really few emperors who can really hold real power. Look at them really a little pitiful.

Let's just say that this is the current saint, Emperor Liu Hong of Han Ling, he was only elected as the emperor by the Dou brothers and sisters when he was a teenager, and at the beginning, he was a puppet emperor.

It is conceivable that Liu Hong was still a child at that time, what did he know? Even if there is a certain ability, this ability will not be so great that it is boundless. At most, he cultivated individual henchmen, and then through his henchmen, he contacted the political enemies of the Dou brothers and sisters.

In the end, as he wished, he destroyed the Dou brothers and sisters who controlled him, but so what? He himself is a person without his own roots, and after the fall of the Dou brothers and sisters, he just fell into the hands of others.

And then after all kinds of blows, his ambition was also consumed. has become a faint king who indulges in excessive desires, how can he still write strong words?

Well, in a few words, you can actually see something.

The plaque has been hung and fastened to the door of the mansion by the craftsman, covered with a red cloth.

There is a certain ritual for moving in to the new house.

Ma Guiren took a lot of people, carrying or carrying a lot of things, and first came all the way from the Plains Palace, to the Wuyong Marquis's Mansion.

In this way, it can be regarded as Liu Xian's separation from the Plains Palace. Just like in later generations, moving from the old house to the new house has to move some things from the old house to the new house, which is a special meaning.

The gate of Marquis Wuyong's mansion was closed, and Liu Xian took all the people in the mansion outside, including Wang Xiu'er and them.

It was still morning.

However, the front of Marquis Wu Yong's mansion was already full of people, most of whom were nearby neighbors, Liu Xianli's mansion, this opening banquet, naturally invited nearby neighbors. In the future, everyone will live on the same street, which is also a normal interaction between neighbors. No matter who it is, if you don't know it, if you live on the same street, and if you see you in the morning, you can take this opportunity to get to know each other.

Such customs and habits are still preserved in later generations.

In addition, there are a small number of people who have some relationship with Ma Guiren, but now their status is not high, so they will come to Baihe early. And these people who came early actually wanted to see if there was anything that could help them, and took the opportunity to climb the relationship between Ma Guigui and Liu Xian.

In fact, Liu Xian has people at hand, so naturally he doesn't need others to help or anything.

There is nothing left, the key is that Ma Guiren made it more grand, she invited a lot of people, beat gongs and drums, and made the scene very lively.

Soon after Ma Guiren and his entourage came, the hour arrived, and Liu Xian and Ma Guiren unveiled it together, pulling down the red silk cloth covering the house plaque, revealing the mansion plaque of the Marquis Wuyong's mansion. After the solemn shouting of the ceremony, he pushed open the closed door of the house.

The ritual is also called the priest during the worship, but the priesthood is more formal and official, and the ritual is more casual.

Naturally, he also recited aloud a compilation of proclamations praising the merits and virtues of the ancestors of the Liu family, and then what to say about the opening of the mansion, the longevity of blessings, and so on.

Liu Xian didn't listen carefully, pushed open the door, and helped Ma Guiren to enter the mansion together, and the opening ceremony of the Marquis Wuyong's mansion was basically completed.

Next, it is to start arranging the things in the mansion, and the people in the Hou mansion will also start to get busy.

At this time, all the people who are invited to come can enter the mansion, and after entering the mansion, they can go to all parts of the mansion, even the inner hall and backyard, they can go to see it at will.

This is also the only time that ordinary people have the opportunity to casually enter the Marquis Wuyong's Mansion to visit. After this day, it is possible to enter the house in the future unless you have the permission of the owner of the house.

Of course, after all, this is the Mansion of Marquis Wuyong, and the mansion is built more beautifully and exquisitely everywhere, and many things in the mansion are actually more valuable things. Even a random calligraphy or painting hanging on the wall has a certain value. In addition to the back garden, there are also some courtyard gardens, in which the flowers and plants are actually carefully planted. Therefore, there will be people watching everywhere, mainly to remind some guests to pay attention and prevent some people with unclean hands and feet.

For this reason, Liu Xian also deliberately asked Zhang Ning to bring hundreds of more people into the city.

Liu Xian, as the owner of the Marquis Wuyong's mansion, together with Ma Guiren, of course, as well as Zhang Ning, Huang Wudie, Yi Ji and other women, greeted guests in the large living room of the main building in the mansion.

Today's guests are ordinary people, and those who really have status will not come so quickly. But Ma Guiren thinks that they can't be rude, no matter who invites them to come, they must be entertained well.

"Tsk, is that Ma Guiren? It's so beautiful, I heard that she is the wife of the younger brother of the first emperor......"

"That son is Liu Xian's son, so handsome."

"Those young ladies who accompany Ma Guiren are also very beautiful, who are they?"

"They, they should be Liu Xian's young lady, right? Isn't it normal for a son of a rich family like this to have three wives and four concubines? It's rare that they're all so beautiful. ”

"Hey, do you just pay attention to the noble horse and the Marquis of Liu Xian? Don't you notice that this mansion is built differently? ”

"Oh my God, this house is really so rich, you see, the railings of this cloister, each one has been carefully carved, these are made of a kind of southern mahogany. How much will it cost to build this mansion? “

"Cut, you don't know this, this mansion was originally the new mansion of Lord Wang Yun of Yuzhou Thorn History, but unfortunately, there are unforeseen circumstances, he spent great effort to build this mansion, but he didn't have the opportunity to move in, and now he is still in prison."

……

The people who entered the Marquis Wuyong's Mansion exchanged their heads and ears, feeling very fresh and new about everything in the mansion.

There is no way, the people living in this urban area are actually ordinary people, and they can only be regarded as people who can barely solve the problem of food and clothing for their families. Far from being rich.

Now, in the place where they lived, there was such a beautiful and wealthy mansion, which made them feel amazed and eye-opening.

In fact, there are so many mansions in the city, but under normal circumstances, they don't have the opportunity to go in and visit. Not to mention the palace in the city, they, ordinary people, can only look outside at most, they can see the walls of the palace, and they can see the eaves of the palaces inside the city walls, but who has the opportunity to enter the palace to see?

Liu Xian and Ma Guiren first received a few guests who came early, and they were all descendants of the remnants of the first emperor. Ma Guiren actually learned about these people after inquiry, but the real so-called remnants of the first emperor, they were either deposed or no longer there. Those who come now are actually their descendants.

Some of them, they didn't dare to come at all, and when they came, they saw the rich atmosphere here, and they didn't even dare to come forward to see Ma Guiren, and they didn't dare to say hello to Ma Guiren. Only a very few, barely mixed, somewhat from a background, dared to come forward to visit.

Ma Guiren didn't even know the original remnants of the first emperor, and now it is even more impossible to know these descendants.

If Liu Xian hadn't thought about relying on Ma Guiren to build a network for himself in Luoyang that could help him, then Liu Xian would have been extremely disappointed.

What is a son of heaven and a courtier? What's more, the first emperor has been gone for more than ten years. The first emperor still has the influence of fart.

However, Liu Xian is still very polite to know them one by one, and some Liu Xian will also deliberately remember their appearance and name, and make an appointment very seriously, invite them to move around more, and have the opportunity to invite them to drink together.

After chatting with them, Liu Xian asked them to take them around the house, and they could sit down after a while.

After the opening of the mansion, the subordinates in charge of the back kitchen had already begun to get busy preparing for the banquet.

This opening banquet is equivalent to a flowing water banquet, no need to wait, after the opening of the banquet, important guests will come one after another.

There were also those neighbors on the same street, and they all came up to talk to Ma Guiren and Liu Xian. After all, the difference in status is too far.

In fact, they are not qualified to participate in such a feast.

Seeing this, Liu Xian took the initiative to walk in front of them.

In fact, they only dared to be outside the hall, and they didn't dare to come in.

Liu Xian hugged his fists and bowed to them with a kind face: "Uncle Chen, Brother Ruan, as well as all the neighbors and villagers, welcome to the Humble House as guests, you are a guest at the entrance, everyone is not welcome." “

"Congratulations to Liu Xian, I wish the little marquis a good fortune, purple gas coming from the east, steady progress, and wealth for a thousand years!"

"Congratulations to the little marquis......"

These people actually knelt down in unison, and each said congratulatory words to Liu Xian.

Liu Xian obeyed Ma Guiren's wishes, and these neighbors who lived nearby, so they would not send someone to send invitations, and let Liu Xian personally invite them, so as to show Liu Xian's sincerity. In this way, Liu Xian still remembers some of them.

This is also a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor, regardless of the status of the gap between the rich and the poor, there is nothing wrong with having a good relationship with the neighbors.
