Three years later.
Jinan Prefecture, Shandong.
There is a constant stream of pedestrians on the streets, with shops lining both sides. The sounds of vendors shouting and bargaining are endless. People have smiles on their faces, and when they meet acquaintances, they stop to say hello and chat about family matters. The scene is of prosperity and peace and contentment.
At the city gate, two men with outstanding figures and demeanor rode their horses slowly towards the city. Their appearance immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Especially some young girls, when they saw them, their eyes lit up and their cheeks turned red.
"Brother Jiu, Jinan Prefecture really lives up to its reputation. Look at this place, it's not much different from our capital."
The Tenth Prince looked around curiously, and from time to time spoke to Yinzhen, who was standing beside him and seemed particularly cold and evil.
"Are you from the capital? Do you want to stay in a restaurant?"
Just as the two were looking around, a small pink ball of flesh appeared from somewhere in front of them, looking at them with its two black eyes open.
Seeing the little guy suddenly appear, the two of them hurriedly pulled the reins and looked at the little pink ball with some fear.
The little meatball is about three years old, with two little flower-buds on his head, round black eyes, and a round nose, mouth, and belly. He looks so cute that people can't help but want to hug him and take a bite.
"Whose child are you? Why are you running onto the street? What if my horse hits you?" the Tenth Prince said, staring at the little boy with annoyed eyes.
He thought his words would scare the chubby little guy to tears, but unexpectedly, the little guy not only did not cry, but instead put his chubby little hands on his waist and glared back at him.
He said in a baby voice, "I meant well. I wanted to introduce you to a hotel and a restaurant since you just arrived in Jinan. Why are you so mean? You are really ungrateful."
Hearing the soft and cute rebuttal of the little meatball, the Tenth Prince stared speechlessly. Finally, he turned to look at his Ninth Brother, "Ninth Brother, look at this little meatball. It's so small, but it already knows how to fight against the odds. It really makes me so angry."
Yin'er stared at the little ball of flesh on the road ahead with his deep eyes, and opened his thin lips slightly, "You..."
“Wow…”
Just as Yinzhen was about to speak, he saw the little boy suddenly covering his eyes and crying.
At the same time, the old men selling vegetables, the old ladies buying fruits, the teenagers selling groceries, the street thugs not far away, and even the beggars wandering nearby all ran over quickly.
When the passers-by saw this scene, they all stood behind the little meatball. Some of them gently coaxed the little meatball not to cry, while others glared at the two men on the horses.
"Jiu-Jiu-Brother, what's going on?"
This was the first time the Tenth Prince had seen this situation, and he couldn't help but move closer to his Ninth Brother.
"You two look like decent people, but how dare you bully a kid? Do you have any shame?" Several thugs protected the little meatball and pointed at the two men on the horses angrily with a common hatred.
The Tenth Prince and Yinzhen were extremely surprised. Just as they were about to say something, the old man selling vegetables nearby spoke first.
"What's wrong with you two? Guoguo is having fun here, why are you bullying her?"
"That's right, Guoguo is so well-behaved and cute, how could you bear to bully her."
As soon as the vegetable seller finished speaking, the beggar next to him also started to criticize him.
The others kept blaming each other, and without exception, they all spoke up for the little meatball.
