Just as Liu Bang thought, there were too many people entering the city these days, and the guards at the door no longer wanted to question them.

Although his attitude was not a good one, it suited his purpose and made it easier for him to bring Hu Hai in without disturbing the people in the city.

After the group entered the city, Hu Hai did not dare to return to his mansion in order not to be discovered, so he could only let Liu Bang take him to an inn to rest.

But no one expected that all the inns were already full of people.

Not only that, in some places even the firewood sheds were occupied, and many people poured into Xianyang City. This was an eye-opener for Hu Hai.

He watched Liu Bang negotiate with the innkeeper, and he stood there but thought in his heart, he is the prince of the Qin Dynasty, how can he associate with those vulgar people?

Thinking about it, he turned around and left the inn, leaving Liu Bang there to think of ways to make the boss accommodating.

"Son..."

The boy who was following Hu Hai turned around and looked at Liu Bang. Seeing that he was still complaining to the innkeeper, he stamped his feet and quickly followed Hu Hai's footsteps.

When Liu Bang heard the voice, he turned around and saw the back of Hu Hai going out. He didn't care to speak and caught up with Hu Hai. He asked with some depression in his heart: "Master, why did you leave?"

"The boss just now is about to relent. Maybe if I say a few more words, he will be willing to find a room for us to live in."

Hu Hai didn't mean to thank him, but looked at him with some complaints.

"Let me live in the woodshed?!"

"I have endured all the hardships along the way, but I don't want to do this again after entering Xianyang City!"

"If it doesn't work, I will secretly return to the palace, as long as my father doesn't know about it."

With that said, he walked towards the direction of the palace.

However, his steps were not very urgent, and his hesitation and entanglement were clearly visible.

Liu Bang sighed silently and had no choice but to follow Hu Hai's footsteps.

When the two of them had walked more than ten steps, they saw a group of people walking in the same direction, saying that they had a place to stay. It seemed that these people were also here to take part in the imperial examination.

Upon seeing this, Liu Bang immediately stepped forward to stop Hu Hai and whispered: "Master, how about we follow over and have a look?"

Originally, returning to the palace was Hu Hai's helpless choice. Now that there is a new way, he will naturally not refuse.

So he followed Liu Bang's suggestion and followed the direction of the crowd.

When I walked to a large courtyard with a high gate, there was a row of guards standing at the door and a notice posted next to the gate.

The general idea is that anyone who comes to participate in the imperial examination can live here for free, but if they deliberately provoke disputes here, they will be disqualified from participating in the imperial examination.

There are also some precautions for living here to regulate their behavior.

Although there are many rules and regulations, there are also many people who are anxious to squeeze in, for fear that they will not have a chance to stay.

But Hu Hai stood there, staring in the direction of the door, clenching his hands into fists, breathing heavily.

"Why?"

"why is that?"

Liu Bang, who was closest to him, heard Hu Hai's words immediately and turned his head to look at him with some confusion.

"Sir, what do you mean?"

"This is... the mansion bought by Zhao Gao... I once played here and he was really nice to me."

From the tone of his words, you could hear that he was really hurt, and you could also feel his confusion. He didn't understand why he just went out for a walk, and why he came back like this.

"Why did it become like this?"

"How painful it would be if sir knew that his mansion would become like this."

Along the way, this was the first time I heard Hu Hai say such literary words, which made Liu Bang look a little suspicious.

The people standing next to them suddenly felt dissatisfied when they heard this.

One person even looked at Hu Hai angrily, pointed at him and asked: "You actually speak for a dying person like Zhao Gao! Who are you?!"

"Could it be his accomplice?!"

"Did Zhao Gao also get a share of the pie when he was embezzling?!"

"A person like you has to take part in the imperial examination with us and become an official in the court? What a shame!"

"Get out!"

His voice was so loud that the people around him began to notice the movement here, and they all shouted to get them out of here.

"Get out!"

When had Hu Hai ever received such an insult? !

He was about to argue with the man immediately, but Liu Bang stopped him.

Liu Bang turned his head and apologized to the others, saying: "Everyone, this friend of mine was speaking out of control for a moment. Please make atonement. If he had conspired with Zhao Gao, he would not be here today."

"Do you think so?"

"There are only a few rooms here now. If you waste time here, you may not be able to live in them after a while."

“Why don’t you stay here first and we’ll talk about it later if you have any questions?”

After hearing this, people came back to their senses and hurriedly ran towards the house, fearing that they would not be able to live in a good place.

Liu Bang also breathed a sigh of relief and stopped the reluctant Hu Hai from going in together.

What happened here did not attract many people's attention.

Even Fusu, who was passing by here, only glanced at it from a distance.

Fusu was going to find Ran Fang, but when he passed by, he heard someone making trouble. He was originally going to come over to comfort him, but he didn't expect to be resolved.

After taking a distant look in that direction, he asked the driver to leave.

When he arrived at the commander's residence, he saw Cao Yangyun leading people and carrying some things out of the residence.

But Cao Yangyun was still talking.

"Everyone, be careful. These are treasures. If they break, you won't be able to afford the compensation."

"Be careful, don't bump into it."

He raised his head and suddenly saw Fusu standing there. He quickly stepped forward and saluted Fusu, "Oh, Mr. Fusu, why are you standing here?"

"Please come in quickly, my master is waiting for you in the front hall."

The tone in these words made Fusu feel familiar, but also a little disgusting.

"Guard Cao, when did you become a eunuch?"

"The tone of his words is more lifelike than Wei Liang's."

"Ah?" Cao Yangyun was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Fusu to have such a side.

Just as he was about to explain that he was just talking nonsense and to do things better for Ran Fang, he saw Fusu had already stepped in.

He was left standing there, giving himself a gentle slap on the mouth.

"I'll break your mouth!"

After speaking, he directed the people who were working and said loudly: "Everyone, please work quickly!"

"If you bump into it accidentally, I will peel your skin off!"

Hearing his loud voice, Fusu stepped into the yard and paused, then walked calmly towards the front hall, as if nothing had happened.
