In the last days, it is a very lucky and happy thing to have food, shelter and a good night's sleep.
Although he has powerful supernatural powers, they were only gained through constant danger and risking his life.
He has also experienced countless life and death situations.
Therefore, being able to eat well and sleep well is something Jiang Ling cherishes and cares about very much.
Anyone who disturbs him while eating or sleeping is his enemy!
After lunch, I took another walk outside. Since I was going to be exiled, shouldn’t I take a look around the ancient capital?
He's not a lady from a wealthy family, staying in the backyard embroidering every day?
Well………
It is indeed worthy of being the capital city, with people coming and going, and even some foreigners in strange costumes selling the specialties of their country.
Jiang Ling strolled along the way and bought himself any delicious food he liked.
Now that he is a rich man, he cannot treat himself badly.
Of course, I also heard a lot of gossip.
"Hey, I heard that Prince Xuan wants to marry the Marquis' daughter. This person is about to die, how can the Marquis be willing to marry his daughter to him?"
"Keep your voice down. He's the Xuan King, a member of the royal family after all. Watch out for your head."
"Humph, I'm just telling the truth. Even if it's just for the sake of getting married, you can't harm the girl. And the King Xuan shouldn't do this!"
"Is this something King Xuan can decide? I heard that the marriage was granted by imperial decree. King Xuan has no say in it either."
"Hey, you said, King Xuan has guarded the border for ten years and protected our people, how could he be so miserable, poisoned? God is really blind! From now on, who will be able to protect Xiling Kingdom?"
"Shut up, there are so many generals and the emperor here. We ordinary people are living a good life. Just don't cause trouble. Don't worry about it."
"Oh, what a pity, what a pity."
"What's so regrettable? Everyone has their own life. Ordinary people can't do anything about it. Let's go and continue working. We still have families to support. Let's go!"
Jiang Ling heard these people chatting and pursed his lips. He could only say that there is gossip everywhere.
He heard something even more outrageous, which was so funny.
"I heard that after the Xuan Wang was poisoned, he might not be able to survive there. How can he have a wedding night and continue the family line?"
"What? Is it that serious?"
"I have inside information. If a daughter of a marquis marries into the Xuanwang Mansion, she will be a widow in the past. If the Xuanwang dies, she will be buried with him! Isn't this too much?"
"Yeah, what a miserable daughter of the firstborn? Think about it this way, we common people are still relatively lucky. At least we won't have the chance to be buried with her!"
"Haha, you don't even qualify to be buried with the deceased, what's so good about that?"
"Bah, I don't want that qualification!"
"Alright, alright, what's so sad about Prince Xuan and the Marquis' daughter? They eat well, drink well, dress well, and use the best.
Look at us common people, wearing patched clothes, eating coarse grains, and can't even afford meat. Have some pity on yourselves!"
I don't know who said this, but the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
It seems like, hey, people are born to enjoy happiness, what's there to be pitiful about?
"Let's go, let's go!"
"Just live your life well. It's not easy to support a family."
Just like that, a group of people who were chatting suddenly came to their senses and stopped gossiping.
Jiang Ling listened to everything and thought these people were quite cute.
It's quite funny!
Yes, isn’t it crazy for ordinary people to worry about the affairs of rich people?
People are born to enjoy happiness and are always superior no matter what they go through.
What about the poor? They are born into a world of hardship.
On the contrary, he sympathizes with the rich people who are better off than him???
There is a serious illness!
Jiang Ling shook his head and continued walking forward.
As I was walking, I came to a teahouse, and suddenly I remembered that in ancient times, the places with the most gossip were either teahouses or brothels.
He has no interest in brothels, but he is very interested in teahouses.
After all, he is also a master of tea art, hehe.
As you walk into "Youjian Teahouse", a waiter will come to greet you.
"Is this young master in the hall or in the private room?"
How can you listen to gossip in a private room?
"The lobby is fine. That's a good spot."
Suddenly I saw an empty seat by the window. I was lucky.
"I want a pot of your special tea, some snacks and desserts."
Hearing the customer's request, the waiter responded happily.
This is a cheerful customer who is willing to spend money.
After the tea and snacks were served, Jiang Ling enjoyed the ancient afternoon tea.
So comfortable and leisurely.
"Hey, did you hear?"
"What's the news?"
"The second son of the Prime Minister's Mansion has kidnapped another woman. The key is that she is a married woman, and he even beat her husband to death."
"Is it that serious? This is too much. This has happened multiple times. Just because he has a Prime Minister as his father, he is so arrogant and disregards human life."
"Then no one reported him?"
"Of course there isn't any, they all end up in nothing, and in the end they get beaten and thrown in jail."
"I also heard that in the end, the victims would disappear inexplicably."
"It's terrible. Ordinary people can't afford to offend powerful people. Officials protect each other. Who would dare to offend the Prime Minister? Unless they want to quit their job."
"Yes, when ordinary people are bullied, they can only swallow their anger and survive."
"Alas, many officials and wealthy children used to be afraid of the Xuan King. I never thought that the Xuan King, the only one who could help the common people, would soon be dying."
“The common people are suffering!”
"Is King Xuan really dying?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, are you trying to kill yourself!?"
