The other side.
Wei Zhao.
The news of Prince Yong's rebellion has spread widely.
Inn.
Nangong Cheng held his chin and stared at the street intently, hoping to meet the girl who had the same birthmark as Nangong Haitang again.
But the girl seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. Not only did he wait in the inn every day, he even searched the entire Shangjing, but he couldn't find her.
What happened that night seemed to be just his illusion.
Nangong Cheng touched his head, still feeling sad. Nangong Yan suddenly came over and patted him on the shoulder.
"Still looking? Seeing you looking here every day will make you see flowers. Go back and pack your luggage. We are going back to Dongling."
Nangong Cheng's eyes widened and he asked in surprise, "Really? Why?"
Nangong Yan whispered: "I don't know either. Anyway, it seems that my grandfather means that we don't need a legitimate reason to fight Wei Zhao."
Nangong Cheng suddenly realized, "Because of Prince Yong's matter?"
Nangong Yan quickly hushed, "Speak softly. By the way, Haitang should also be going back soon. When you return to Dongling, you must get along well with her. I warn you, don't bully my little sister every day."
Nangong Cheng snorted coldly, turned his head away and said nothing.
He looked at the busy streets and thought in annoyance, maybe he had really seen it wrong.
——
The events at the City Lord's Mansion did not seem to affect the prosperity of Tonghua City.
The Tonghua City Pier is as bustling and noisy as ever with people coming and going.
More than a dozen tall sailing ships were docked in the port, their sails blown high by the wind, blocking out the sky and the sun.
The surrounding streets were crowded with tourists, and vendors were setting up stalls selling all kinds of things.
Some people who failed to get a stall just sold their goods while walking around, shouting loudly.
"Hey, girl, do you want to buy some candied haws?"
Wei Linglong shook her head and refused. She turned around and pushed the other side of the wheelchair and asked, "A Ling, when are we going to Lingnan?"
The three of them just got off the boat and stepped onto Tonghua's land.
Xie Ling put her hand on her forehead to block the sun and looked at the merchant ship in the distance. "Wait for me to ask. If there is still room, we will leave today. You can take care of me, uncle."
Xie Ling had been here once and was familiar with the place, so she knew where the boat tickets were sold.
The last time she went to Wei Zhao, Wei Zhao was a big country, so she couldn't buy a ticket.
There shouldn’t be many people going to Sinan this time.
Thinking about being able to go home, Xie Ling's eyebrows smiled and she was in a good mood.
There were crowds of people ahead, each carrying a bag and bringing their family with them, as if they were moving.
Xie Ling was nearly squeezed to death and nearly died.
She took a deep breath and shouted over the crowd, "Hey, boss, give me three tickets for Sinan!"
The boss smiled and said, "Sir, please wait until the day after tomorrow. We are all sold out today."
Xie Ling exclaimed "Ah", very confused.
"No, how could it be? Why are so many people going to Sinan?"
The boss' eyes widened, "Sir, you don't know Sinan?"
Before the boss could speak, the people around him rushed to talk to Xie Ling.
"My dear, Sinan is the most popular place in Beijiang now! It is said that food and accommodation are provided for free."
"Not only that, the baby can go to school for free!"
"Also, ordinary people can become officials!"
Listening to the chattering of people around her, Xie Ling felt a little dizzy.
Sinan is right, but who can tell her how this news came about?
Xie Ling asked: "How did you know this?"
After taking a look, Xie Ling realized that all these people were pale and thin, with tattered clothes. It was obvious that they were poor.
Occasionally there were a few well-mannered scholars, wearing green shirts and wooden hairpins, very simple.
Xie Ling understood.
Even though Wei Zhao is so prosperous and Tonghua City is so densely populated.
In ancient times when natural disasters and man-made calamities occurred frequently, the lives of the lower class people were still in dire straits.
A scholar answered Xie Ling: "A man came to our village to inform us. I am a commoner from a nearby village. I happened to be close to the dock of Tonghua City, so I wanted to go and see if it is true as the rumors say that one can become an official if he can read."
An old scholar nearby stroked his beard and said, "It's really as the rumors say, it's a paradise on earth."
Xie Ling nodded and said loudly: "Thank you all. To be honest, I am from Sinan and just came back from Wei Zhao on business not long ago."
Facing the fiery gazes of the people around her, Xie Ling slowly said, "I can prove that the rumors are definitely true. This is how we are in Sinan! Go ahead and feel free! If you don't meet the criteria, come find me!"
Xie Ling has a pretty face and a gentle temperament, and you can tell at first glance that she is someone who will not lie.
Those people who were originally eager to make a move and were very conflicted immediately made up their minds after hearing what was said and bought tickets right away!
The boss was so busy that he shouted, "Take your time! Take your time! We are not in a hurry!"
Xie Ling was afraid that there were no more tickets, so she squeezed in and bought three tickets to Sinan the day after tomorrow.
Although she didn't know why Gu Wei and the others were spreading the news about Sinan, she would help in any way she could.
She was a little curious about what Sinan was like now.
There was still an endless stream of people going to buy boat tickets, and Xie Ling quickly squeezed out, fearing that she would not be able to get out.
I have to find an inn to stay in first. Just as Xie Ling was thinking about it, she found that Wei Linglong and Wei Xiuchu not far away were surrounded by a group of people who looked like guards.
She frowned slightly and ran over quickly.
Xie Ling pushed aside the two guards and asked, "What's going on?"
When Wei Linglong saw Xie Ling, her originally cold expression instantly turned into one of grievance. She hugged Xie Ling's arm and said, "Ah Ling, this person just passed by me and my uncle. It was obviously because her skirt was too long and she accidentally fell down, but she insisted that it was me who tripped her! She wanted me to kneel down and apologize!"
