After hearing what many people said, Old Cui and others finally understood the whole story.

but--

Why does this sound so mysterious?

That's not true at all.

Old Cui held onto the door frame, looking a little dazed. "Our Xian-ge was praised as a child prodigy by His Majesty? And because of this, the entire Nanyang County was exempted from three years of corvée labor and five years of 60% of the grain tax?"

"Even His Majesty praised him and exempted the people of Nanyang from corvée and taxes. Look, folks, isn't he very handsome!"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Cui Xian's face turned red and he felt very ashamed.
