Ji Fengming, of course, couldn't understand and was completely unaware of the girls' enthusiasm.
Black Owl frowned slightly, grabbed Ji Fengming's sleeve, and quickened his pace.
The group hadn't gone far.
A large number of golden-armored soldiers rushed from the direction of the royal palace.
It was King Shimi of the Kingdom of Gara, dressed in a magnificent robe, who personally led a group of people to greet them.
Shi Mi first respectfully called Zhao Qinglian "Mother", then turned to look at Shang Xiye, who was standing next to Ji Fengyao and whose features resembled his own by six or seven points. His burning gaze almost gleamed with a sharp light: "Brother, are you the elder brother that Mother often talks about, the one who was lost in Da Zhao?"
Shang Xiye: "..."
Although his mother treated him and his young wife very warmly,
The people here reacted to their arrival with a rather strangely enthusiastic response.
But he still felt very uncomfortable:
It seems that his mother really did become someone else's queen in the Kingdom of Jialuo, and even gave birth to a younger brother for him.
Seeing that Shang Xiye's face was slightly dark, Ji Fengyao knew that he was feeling frustrated and upset, so she quickly smoothed things over and said, "Your Majesty, Consort Lian, let's find a quiet place to talk again."
“Mi’er, this is your sister-in-law, the principal wife your elder brother married in Da Zhao.” Zhao Qinglian’s cautious gaze withdrew from Shang Xiye’s face, and she quickly introduced Ji Fengyao to Shi Mi with a smile.
"Not the principal wife, but the wife, the only wife," Shang Xiye corrected expressionlessly, a hint of resentment hidden in his voice.
Zhao Qinglian felt a little embarrassed, but did not show any displeasure.
Shi Mi paused for a moment, then quickly followed up on Ji Fengyao's words to smooth things over, saying, "The streets are noisy, please come to the palace with my mother and me, elder brother and sister-in-law."
After saying this, Shimi led the way.
Two groups of drummers had somehow appeared behind the group, playing music and drumming all the way. The people followed along the street, cheering, creating a lively atmosphere just like during the Lunar New Year.
Ji Fengming, who loved excitement, couldn't resist the allure of the lively atmosphere. He raised his hand and waved twice towards the street next to him with a smile, which immediately caused a group of girls to scream.
Many of the girls held up their waist pendants and shouted as they rushed forward, but were blocked by the golden-armored soldiers who stretched out their arms and became human walls.
Black Owl quickly pulled Ji Fengming's hand down and warned him telepathically, "The local customs here are open-minded. Don't cause trouble. Otherwise, if you get involved with any of the girls here, you'll have no choice but to marry them."
Ji Fengming exclaimed in surprise: "...No, no way, I just waved my hand!"
Black Owl was afraid that Ji Fengming would not believe in superstition and would act recklessly, so he simply kept holding him and patiently explained to Ji Fengming through telepathy what the waist pendants that the girls were holding up were and what the consequences would be if they accepted them.
Ji Fengming was startled and his face was filled with horror:
Holy crap!
What kind of magical country is this Gara Kingdom?!
He can't bring his dad and mom along, or they'll bring him a wife home in no time!
After explaining in detail, Black Owl added a few more words: "Of course, if you really fall for a girl you like, you only need to make a similar waist pendant and exchange identity tokens with her. After that, the two of you go to the royal court to apply for new identity waist pendants, and then treat each other's relatives and friends to a meal to inform them. Then you will be a legally married couple."
Ji Fengming shuddered several times upon hearing this.
When he looked again at the girls waving their waist pendants enthusiastically at them, it was as if he had seen a raging flood:
Good heavens!
This country is too scary. It's much safer to live in the conservative Da Zhao!
I need to urge my sister and brother-in-law to hurry up and go home!
