"Look, that horse looks familiar..."
"Am I right? Whose young man is that? Isn't he riding the horse that belongs to the little princess of the palace?"
The coat is red, the figure is handsome, the four strong and powerful hooves seem to be stepping on balls of fire, and a pair of huge horse eyes are still shining with a little wisdom.
The streets of the busy city were very lively. Jia Mingan was riding the Linxue Divine Horse and pacing slowly on the blue-gray road. Pedestrians and vendors had to give way.
Hearing the chatter on the street from time to time, the young man's horse's head was raised slightly, and he looked at the passers-by around him with a bit of pride in his eyes.
It has noble blood and was born to stand in the center of heaven and earth and attract attention.
In other words, it is surrounded by freaks who don't take it seriously all day long.
Jia Mingan, who was sitting on horseback, felt awkward in his heart while listening to the comments about him.
You know, he is not the kind of person who likes to be in the limelight in public, that would be too superficial.
When he looked at the pedestrians and hawkers around him who kept avoiding him when they saw him, it always reminded him of the days when he was collecting protection fees in Qinghe County.
At that time, the neighbors were harmonious and the folk customs were simple. Every vendor on the street would smile when he saw him and even give him things for free...
All of this is caused by the fact that he is too eye-catching now riding the Linxue Divine Horse.
Thinking of this, the young man looked at the proud and arrogant horse head beneath him, and suddenly frowned as he had no idea at all.
He raised his hand and slapped Linxue Divine Horse on the head.
"Little horse, little horse, do you know that being a horse is like being a human being? You must be humble. If you are so arrogant, no one will like you."
"You have to be like me, be kind to others, and greet everyone with a smile."
Jia Mingan looked at the people around him who were doing nothing but staring at him with strange expressions, looking a little ashamed.
The mother-in-law selling vegetables stopped barking, the woman buying vegetables stopped leaving, and even the little girl holding candied haws on the street corner stopped eating candied haws!
God, he is an ordinary person, but he is not ugly. How can He De be so charming?
"My fellow villagers have worked hard. You don't need to pay too much attention to me. Just do your own thing."
The young man looked serious, cupped his hands and spoke loudly to the people around him who were talking about him openly or covertly.
"My name is Jia Mingan, and I am just an ordinary person. I have just come to your land for the first time. Fortunately, I have been taken care of by Miss Qinghan. I am currently living in Prince Gu's Mansion. I don't know the customs here. If I offend you, please don't mind!"
As soon as Jia Mingan said these words, there were some whispers around him.
"Miss Qinghan...isn't this the little princess's maiden name?
"He calls the little princess like this, could it be..."
An old lady was carrying a vegetable basket and looking at the young man riding a tall horse in the center of the crowd, her expression was inevitably a bit shocked.
Although in Prince Gu's Mansion, the little princess brought back a human boy, he was always inseparable, and it was no secret that he was extremely close to him.
But how could anyone dare to spread this kind of thing outside the palace...
But now, looking at the handsome young man riding on the royal princess' exclusive mount, I heard Jia Mingan address the perverse little princess from southern Xinjiang so affectionately.
Although everyone didn't say it clearly, they all had guesses in their hearts.
"Old man, let me ask you, how much does a bunch of candied haws of yours cost? I've paid for it, and I'll treat you to something to eat today!"
Jia Mingan casually pointed to a vendor selling candied haws, and he acted very grandly.
He didn't know what it was to be stingy when he was in King Gu's Mansion, but now that he has money in his pocket, he doesn't panic at all.
In fact, he was also a little strange. He thought that a prosperous and important city like Gu King's Capital City, not to mention high-level practitioners everywhere, would at least have some domineering second-generation cultivators.
It's just that until now, he has never seen any practitioners on the street. All he saw was a group of old, weak, women and children, ordinary people.
"This young master, you are so old. You are from the palace, how can I accept the young master's money?"
The vendor who was stopped by Jia Mingan was about sixty or seventy years old.
Looking at the young man in front of him who was suspected to be the new favorite of the young princess, his old face couldn't help but show a bit of fear.
Hearing that the hawker in front of him wanted to give him away for free, Jia Mingan's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he looked at this generous hawker happily.
"What I said is wrong. I'm not an unreasonable evil person. How can I not pay you for living in the palace?"
The young man riding on the Linju felt a little emotional in his heart. Although he had always been informal, he never treated others with hypocritical politeness.
But after all, he was still the innocent and kind-hearted young man. How could he use the power of the palace to get the candied haws made by others for nothing?
However, people in this world are still divided into three, six, and nine grades. Now that the people in the city heard that he was from the palace, they did not dare to accept money from him...
"Young Master, you don't know it's normal for you to be new here. We don't charge a penny for anything the palace purchases in the city."
Although the vendor looked a little scared, his tone was still very firm.
"As long as King Gu is still there, we will not charge any money."
After listening to the words of the old vendor in front of him, Jia Mingan couldn't help but look a little shocked.
"Lord Gu King, you are actually so domineering?"
The young man raised his eyebrows in surprise. As soon as he finished speaking, he looked around, and then he noticed that the brows of the people around him were all frowning.
"Sir, even though you are from the little princess, you can't speak ill of King Gu like that!"
Someone in the crowd loudly refuted Jia Mingan, and the young man even found that the hawker who had a kind face but a look of fear in front of him also looked a little dissatisfied.
"Sir, if you are from Southern Xinjiang, how can you slander Lord Gu King like this?"
"It is precisely because Lord Gu issued the order that the monks should separate themselves from each other and not interfere with each other. This group of poor people like us can live and work in peace in the city without being oppressed by the monks..."
"Although King Gu has never asked us for anything, we always remember this great kindness..."
"Lord Gu King is the protector of our southern Xinjiang people."
Looking at the angry crowd around him, Jia Mingan's face was solemn.
No wonder he was able to spend so many years in Qinghe County so peacefully.
Even the third-level Miao [Gu Master], whose strength surpasses the entire county, still keeps a low profile and never causes trouble...
It's a pity that no one has ever told him these truths, which made him commit such a mistake today...
The main thing is that he has never seen a scene like this...
He even saw a few ignorant little Doudings behind the crowd rolling up their sleeves, ready to rush over and take action!
How could he do such a thing of bullying the small?
"Everyone, I, Jia Mingan, know I was wrong!"
"This Lord Gu King is a very good man!"
In a restaurant not far away, a group of warriors in black-collared crane robes looked at the movement downstairs with twinkling eyes.
In the whole world, there is nothing but the king's land, and on the shore of the land, there is nothing but the king's ministers.
As a Dagan man, he did not respect the emperor's order, but instead regarded a dying Gu creature as his protector...
This southern land is really extremely ignorant.
"How long will it take for the two adults to join us in the capital?"
"The two adults took a detour due to personal matters, so it will probably take another three weeks!"
The middle-aged man who asked the first question couldn't help but caress his forehead slightly when he heard the words, looking a little ugly.
They have been here for almost a month, and now they are still asked to wait here for another three weeks?
People from the Taoist sect are really reckless and extremely lax in their behavior!
but…
Who makes them the top nine?
The middle-aged man cast his gaze on the humiliating horse in the center of the crowd, which was controlled by an uncultivated young man.
He recognized that it was a priceless treasure, the Linxue Divine Horse, which was paid tribute to only ten horses every three years from the Western Regions.
People have thousands of ways, but the world is divided into nine streams?
Obviously people are divided into nine groups!
"let's go!"
The middle-aged man drank the drink in front of him in one gulp, and then called his subordinates to leave.
The two Taoist disciples responsible for the plan had not arrived, so they could not act rashly without permission.
The suppression and prohibition department is authorized by the emperor, and there are no taboos.
Most importantly, they are obedient and never disobey orders.
Just like a dog…
