The main street was packed with people, all looking at the man in the middle, watching him clinging to the woman in his arms, speechless. Although his face was expressionless, everyone present could sense a deep sense of sadness.
No one went up to disturb them, and no one dared to step forward.
Even the servant didn't dare to step forward. It was the first time he saw his prince show such emotions.
At this moment, a convoy of dozens of people slowly came towards this side, and the servants leading the way were shouting angrily.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, everyone."
When the onlookers saw the pedestrian's imposing manner, they knew that the person was a powerful person, and everyone made way for him.
When they reached the man, the leading servant, seeing him standing in the middle of the road, shouted rudely, "Hey, you guys! Get out of the way for our master!"
The servant stepped forward and blocked the servant who was about to move forward.
"Our master is here, please don't be rude."
The servants had never encountered anyone who dared to disrespect them.
"Do you know who my master is?" the servant said with a proud look on his face, "Our master is the current Marquis of Pingyang. If you know what's good for you, get out of here right now."
When the people around heard the name of Marquis Pingyang, their expressions changed slightly, and many of them had disgust in their eyes.
Pingyang Hou relied on his sister being the empress to bully others and gain a very bad reputation. However, with a favored empress above him, no one dared to offend him easily.
The servants thought that if they announced their master's name, the other servants would definitely give way, but the servant glanced at them coldly and ignored them.
Marquis Pingyang, who was getting impatient waiting, stepped out of the sedan chair. His voice arrived before he even showed up.
"What are you doing? Can you still leave?"
The leading servant, upon hearing the Marquis's displeased voice, grew anxious. His eyes grew sinister as he looked at the master and servant. "Marquis, it will be done in a moment."
After the servant said something flattering to the Marquis, he raised his hand and directed the other servants to come forward.
"Throw them out of here."
The servants stepped forward, ready to use force.
The servant snorted coldly and shot a token into the hands of Pingyang Hou. Pingyang Hou was startled by the sudden object and almost threw it away.
When he saw the characters on the token clearly, he was so frightened that his face turned pale and he stumbled into the crowd. Seeing his servants rushing to join the crowd, he was even more frightened.
"Stop." Pingyang Hou pushed his servants away, walked forward, and slapped the leading servant in the face.
The servant was stunned, and so were the others.
When Pingyang Hou saw the man not far away, a flattering smile appeared on his face.
"Prince Xiao, it's my fault that I didn't discipline you properly, allowing these dogs to offend you." Pingyang Hou lowered his posture and apologized.
Everyone present was shocked when they heard the name "Prince Xiao".
The only person currently addressed as "Prince Xiao" was the immensely powerful Prince Xiaoyao. Even the Emperor feared this prince, and no one else dared to act presumptuously in his presence.
The servants were so frightened that they turned pale. They were as quiet as quails, looking at the man in front of them with fear.
He stood up, holding Bei Yutang in his arms, and walked towards the city gate step by step. Wherever he walked, people made way for him. His figure gradually disappeared at the end of the street.
Since then, no one has seen King Xiaoyao again.
The woman who disappeared with him also became a mystery in the Chishui Kingdom.
