Chapter 1078: Disturbed and Agitated

~7 min read 1,266 words

The large ship of Changle finally arrived at the Matou of Huaxia. The few people from the Jiuli could be said to be incredibly excited, because they finally did not have to be rocked on the boat and could have a good rest.

Among them, the most excited was none other than Ayuduo. She was perhaps a mix of curiosity and surprise, along with a bit of uncertainty about the future, so her mood could be said to have changed drastically.

When disembarking, because Ayuduo had relatively high spirits, she appeared a bit better and was not as uncomfortable. The Bingzhu and the others also had their spirits lifted slightly because today was quite special.

Because the time of Changle's return to the city was uncertain, naturally no one came to greet them. The Ministry of Rites had not received the news at this time and was unprepared; they were currently preparing everything for Changle's wedding, which had already left them frazzled.

Fortunately, the Bingzhu and the others did not have such requirements. For them, having Changle accompanying them was already more than enough; Changle's status and face were already high enough in Huaxia.

The tall city walls and the hard ground were all things the Jiuli had not experienced. To them, everything was novel and strange. Fortunately, when they were at the Xuanyuan Tribe, they had already seen the Embassy and had already been as shocked as they could be, so now they were only slightly shocked, at least within a normal range.

Plus, while on the road, Changle had already told them what Huaxia was like: it was an Embassy magnified countless times, with more houses, more courtyards, and they were taller, the roads inside were all hard, and there were many flowers and Grass planted.

However, imagination is imagination after all; seeing such a large-scale city for real was still very shocking.

While at the Matou, the Workers of Huaxia expressed extremely high respect for Changle. Such a situation naturally made the people of the entire Jiuli feel happy; after all, they had only seen a portion of people respecting Changle at the Xuanyuan Tribe, but now they saw that the people of the entire Huaxia respected Changle.

After all, not every son of a Tribal Chief could receive respect and importance. The children of Baoxi were a relatively extreme case; only a few received importance, and Baoxi himself did not even know the others.

At the city gate, Changle was questioned by the guarding Soldiers, but because the news of Changle finding a wife had already spread throughout all of Huaxia, everyone wanted to take a look, and the few people from the Jiuli were incidentally treated with a certain degree of importance.

"Changle Prince, the people from the Ministry of Rites have not come. Do you need me to prepare a carriage for you?"

Changle hurriedly refused: "A carriage is not needed. They haven't recovered from seasickness yet, so don't use a carriage to toss them around anymore. Go to the Ministry of Rites to notify them first, and also my father. Arrange a place for them to stay; Ayuduo and I will go see my father first."

"Yes!" The Soldier originally wanted to say something more, but thinking of the other people beside Changle, who were not people of Huaxia, he knew he could not speak recklessly and must conceal what needed to be concealed, so he chose to shut his mouth directly.

After entering the city, Changle introduced things to them bit by bit. Only after leaving the boat did they feel slightly better; although they were still not very steady while walking, they were still developing in a good direction.

Ayuduo also knew that Changle had truly not lied to her; Huaxia indeed had many, many beautiful plants, all of which they had picked out.

Baifeng, feeling restless, always felt that some major event was about to happen. Sure enough, what he thought of came to pass; suddenly a Soldier came to report that Changle had returned, and along with him were a few people from the Jiuli.

Baifeng rubbed his head and gave instructions: "Go, go. Let Yulong go to pick them up, and then have them come directly to me. I will meet these guests first.

If there is no place to entertain them, arrange for them all to stay in Changle's courtyard. It just so happens that Changle's courtyard is big enough, and they are all one family."

"Yes!"

Zhigui, whose trouble was resolved by a casual remark from Baifeng, breathed a sigh of relief again. Huaxia no longer had courtyards to entertain guests. Chengqie and the others lived very happily in that courtyard, and now they had completely regarded themselves as people of Huaxia. When asked if they wanted to return to the Suiren clan, they all shook their heads repeatedly; not one wanted to go back. Chengqie even regretted the things he had done before; if he had known Huaxia was this good, he would have scrambled to come, so why bother with all that messy business.

But then again, who could believe that Huaxia would be like this? What his father told him, he didn't quite believe; after all, it was too outrageous. But once he arrived in Huaxia, he found that it was actually even more outrageous than what his father had described. If he went back and told others, they wouldn't believe it either.

He also liked going to school very much, it was just that he seemed to have started school too late. In the same class as him, besides his own brothers and sisters, were a bunch of little brats. Everyone was treated equally; the teacher would not care whose son you were or what your status was. If you deserved to be scolded, you were scolded; if you deserved to be hit, you were hit, because in Huaxia, the status of a teacher was too high.

At first, Chengqie would rely on his status as the son of Baoxi to try to gain some privileges, but in the end, his young master's dream was shattered by the Three Teaching Canes. In school, in the eyes of the teachers, everyone was the same. The teachers were not afraid at all, because they had Baifeng backing them, and the stone of "Heaven Earth Sovereign Kin Teacher" backing them.

And because Chengqie was the oldest and had the best physique, the intensity of the punishment was the greatest. Other students would be hit with the Three Teaching Canes and Three Warning Rulers, but Chengqie would basically have to double it. Moreover, he was not allowed to object or have any opinions; who told him to be the oldest.

Originally, Chengqie thought it was specifically targeting him, but later he discovered that his younger, thinner brothers would receive a little bit of favoritism, and the punishment would not be so heavy, because compared to most children of the same age in Huaxia, they were relatively thinner, and the teachers would punish them according to their physical condition.

Furthermore, if you performed well, you would be rewarded as usual, regardless of your status. There were children of Slaves in the class; Huaxia did not forbid the children of Slaves from studying, nor did it specifically separate classes.

Therefore, sometimes, a situation would arise where a Slave's child and the child of a great Noble would be rewarded on the same stage. From his initial extreme lack of understanding, after the education of the school, Chengqie now understood the reason a little bit.
