Chapter 1744: Coming Side by Side
After Jing Man finished speaking, he looked at Shi Liu with anticipation.
It seemed as if it was certain that no one else except Shi Liu was qualified.
Pomegranate:"……"
Don't look at me!
There's no use looking at me!
I am enjoying the good life with the lady, why should I be a high priest?
Living in that cold stone house all day long, wouldn't it suffocate people to death?
Shi Liu felt that if she lived in the high priest's palace, she would definitely become depressed.
She traveled across thousands of mountains and rivers with her young lady, how free and easy she was!
Only a fool would stay and be the high priest!
Shi Liu turned her head away, avoiding Jing Man's gaze, and muttered, "Can you really hang yourself with a rope?"
She doesn't deserve it anyway!
Whoever wants to be the boss can be the boss!
Jing Man: “…”
His instinct was that he would really hang himself on this rope.
Although, he didn't understand why the blood bells would ring on Pomegranate's body.
However, he knew that the blood bell had never rung on anyone except the high priest.
Although Yi Mo tried his best to conceal it, Jing Man was not a pushover. He had long known through some channels that the blood bell on Yi Mo's body had never rung.
Jing Man looked at Tang Bao again pleadingly.
Tang Bao gave Jing Man a look that said "I can't help you."
She had no choice.
She couldn't force Shi Liu to do something she didn't like.
However, it would naturally not be possible for them to watch Yi Mo serve as the high priest.
Not to mention Yi Mo's feelings for Xuanyuan Jin, just from the perspective of the relationship between Dayan and Southern Xinjiang after Yi Mo became the high priest, Tang Bao and others would definitely stop Yi Mo from becoming the high priest.
Otherwise, as soon as Yi Mo became the high priest, Tang Bao and others would have to flee.
By then, the two countries might be at war again.
It has to be said that everyone has secretly wondered in their hearts who is the most suitable person to be the high priest of Southern Xinjiang.
After all, who the high priest of Southern Xinjiang is not only related to the future of Southern Xinjiang, but also to the development of the relationship between Southern Xinjiang and Dayan.
Jing Man understood what Tang Bao meant and couldn't help but look dejected.
For a moment, the atmosphere was a little stagnant.
"Master, the things have been delivered."
The voice of the old man selling goods was heard outside the door.
"Carry him in!" Jing Man was shocked and ordered.
"yes,"
The door of the private room was opened, and several strong young men came in one after another carrying several pieces of furniture.
An elegant sandalwood scent emanates from each piece of furniture.
Tables, chairs, wardrobes, kang screens, dressing tables...
Finally, there is a simple and elegant single bed without any decoration.
All these furniture are made of white sandalwood.
Tang Bao's eyes lit up.
I wonder how happy the Queen Mother would be if she saw these furniture!
"Miss Su, Young Master Yang, this is a little gift from me. I hope you will accept it." Jing Man pointed at the furniture and said sincerely.
Tang Bao and Xuanyuan Jin looked at each other.
Both of them knew that if they continued to refuse, they would seem hypocritical.
Moreover, it is not conducive to cooperation between the two parties.
Although they would not force Shi Liu to seize the position of high priest, their intention to prevent Yi Mo from becoming the high priest was the same.
Xuanyuan Jin said in a cold voice, "Obedience is worse than respect. Thank you, Master Jing Man."
A hint of joy appeared on Jing Man's face, and a glimmer of hope surged in his heart.
Everyone knows that when Xuanyuan Jin and Tang Bao accepted the gifts, it was equivalent to a tacit agreement on cooperation between the two parties.
Tang Bao took out a small porcelain bottle from her small bag and said with a smile, "This contains pills to expel dampness and toxins and regulate the body. Take one pill a day, it will be very beneficial to your body."
Tang Bao said, handing the small porcelain bottle to Jing Man, "It's just a small token of my respect."
"Thank you, Miss Su!" Jing Man took the small porcelain bottle and said.
He was not surprised that Tang Bao knew that he was suffering from dampness and toxins, after all, he had not concealed the fact that he had sought medical treatment and medicine.
However, he didn't take the pills Tang Bao gave him seriously.
Even if a little girl has superb medical skills, how good can they be?
Little did he know that he would soon realize how stupid his current understanding was.
Both parties had the same goal, reached an agreement, and were very satisfied.
"Brother Zhao, please arrange for someone to send these furniture back to my grandmother and say that it is my brother and I showing our filial piety to her." Tang Bao looked at Zhao Wu and said.
"Yes, miss."
Zhao Wu agreed and asked two guards to go out and hire a carriage and manpower.
The old man selling the goods looked at Jing Man, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Should he tell his master immediately that he knew a place where many of these trees grew?
Forget it, I'll just tell my master secretly later.
The high priest and the saint arrived in Chuncheng at the same time, so the king naturally had to hold a banquet to welcome them.
Tang Bao and others were also invited because they were guests of honor at the high priest's mansion.
The banquet was held in a spacious square.
Tang Bao looked at the piles of blazing bonfires and couldn't help but think of Daliushu Village.
In Daliushu Village, a barbecue party is held on the threshing ground every year.
Although there are not as many people as here and the place is not as big as here, the kind of joy and lively scene that comes from the heart is something that cannot be achieved here.
Oh! She missed home so much.
When can I go back?
It has been almost two years since she left Daliushu Village.
"Are you homesick?" Xuanyuan Jin noticed Tang Bao's low mood and asked with his head down.
"Brother, sometimes I really suspect that you are the roundworm in my stomach." Tang Bao tilted her head and said, "How come you can guess everything I'm thinking?"
"Anyone with eyes can guess what you are thinking." Xuanyuan Jin said unhappily.
Why do you always use things like roundworms to describe it?
Tang Bao said unconvincedly: "I'm not stupid! You don't have to imply me!"
Xuanyuan Jin noticed that the little girl was angry, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
"Well, you're not stupid, you're a smart little fellow." Xuanyuan Jin said softly.
Tang Bao: “…”
He rubbed his arms subconsciously.
I have goose bumps, what's going on?
"Brother, don't talk like that. I'm not used to it." Tang Bao said suspiciously, "I always feel like you're up to something bad."
Xuanyuan Jin: "..."
Jun's face immediately darkened.
Princess Linghua and Xia Siya listened from the side and couldn't help but look at each other and cover their mouths with their hands to laugh.
Soon, the king of southern Xinjiang made a grand appearance, surrounded by his two children and a group of ministers.
The king of southern Xinjiang looked a little old and did not seem to be in good spirits.
Saji was in high spirits and his face was full of glory.
Princess Zimo followed Saji, and her expression was not very good.
She has been repeatedly frustrated by Dabai, so it would be strange if she was in a good mood.
Tang Bao looked at the empty seats on both sides of the King of Southern Xinjiang and couldn't help but be shocked.
The status of the high priest and the saint is indeed remarkable.
The king had arrived, but the two of them still did not show up.
I just don't know which of these two people will be the last to appear.
"The high priest has arrived!"
"The Saint is here!"
With two shouts of greeting, the high priest and the saint came side by side.
