Chapter 1080: Two Formidable People

~7 min read 1,270 words

Chengqie now truly listens to Baifeng; when Baifeng tells him to study hard, Chengqie really takes it to heart, and his learning speed improves day by day.

As for the matter of Changle's wedding this time, he also knows about it; after all, all of Huaxia knows, so how could he not? If it weren't for the issue of time and the great distance, even Baoxi would have received the news by now, and he would also have to prepare some gifts.

However, only Chengqie knows about this for now. As the person currently representing the Suiren Clan, he naturally wants to think about preparing some gifts for Changle, but when he looks at what he has on hand, it seems he really has nothing he can bring out. Even the food was given to them by Baifeng; they seemingly brought nothing at all when they came this time, and those few things they have don't seem like much to offer.

But it is impossible to congratulate Changle on his wedding empty-handed; everyone else is sending gifts, and as the son of a City Lord and the future Suiren Emperor, that would be far too impolite.

After searching hard, he discovered that a leopard skin was quite nice. He basically hadn't used it, and there were no wounds on it when it was caught, and the fur looked very good. Furthermore, this fur is precious enough; giving it to Changle would not be impolite and could also show his respect.

However, Chengqie has never met this Changle until now. In Huaxia, Changle and Yulong can be said to be rumored to be very formidable. At first, Chengqie thought the two of them were only called smart and formidable because they were Baifeng's sons; if they didn't have such a father, they might just be very ordinary people.

As it turns out, Chengqie is much clearer on this now. He has had more contact with Yulong, perhaps due to Baifeng's arrangements or requirements. Every few days, Yulong would meet with Chengqie and the others, inquiring about their well-being and asking about their living conditions to see if they had any difficulties.

Having had more contact, Chengqie discovered that Yulong is a person of great wisdom and is also very smart. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to have already been able to control one of Huaxia's most important departments with almost no formal schooling, and he even manages it in an orderly fashion.

Chengqie is very clear now: a person without real talent and learning, or who is not smart enough, cannot control a department and cannot be an official. Even at the beginning, when he wanted to be a Squad leader, he couldn't do it because his ability was insufficient, and he could only let smarter children do it. He also discovered from the profession and work of a Squad leader that he truly knew too little; he couldn't even do a good job as a Squad leader.

He has completely recognized Yulong. Although he has not yet met Changle, the legends about Changle are already even more formidable than those about Yulong. After all, whose child can single-handedly pioneer a discipline and be able to bring up so many students?

Changle has been to almost all the lands around Huaxia and has been to all kinds of dangerous places. Furthermore, he has found a great many things useful to Huaxia. In terms of merit, Changle is already someone with great achievements and hard work. Now, he has even abandoned his own comfortable life to go to the Xuanyuan Tribe to suffer and work; he has even been beaten in the Xuanyuan Tribe and nearly died.

Changle's deeds are spread among the children, and it is a completely inescapable and very important topic. He is too important to Huaxia. Chengqie, who has started to love learning, naturally wants to meet this Changle, though he does not know if Changle is easy to get along with.

Zhigui's trouble has been resolved; he knows where those people should be settled. In Changle's home, although Changle, Yulong, and Baifeng live together, they are in different courtyards and are separated; this is to give them enough personal space and privacy.

Changle has his own servants, but they have been idle for too long. Changle spends too much time away from home throughout the year, and there is simply no one to manage them. They only need to do some cleaning, and they cannot be ordered around by anyone else.

Of course, the people of the Royal Family are exceptions. Sui and Chinv still go to Changle's courtyard every few days to check, and then urge those servants to tidy up the rooms again and wipe them clean; they cannot let dust settle.

Zhigui has already sent people to find those few servants so they can prepare in advance. Their master is coming back, and he has also brought a mistress, and the mistress's family has come along as well. They will stay for a period of time, and they need to serve them and make preparations.

Zhigui, for his part, put down the work in his hands and hurried to the road to meet Changle and the others. Fortunately, he heard that Changle and the others were walking over, so he would not be too late.

Changle and the others, who have been walking for a long time, are now also starting to feel tired. Although he took the closest path, Huaxia City is already very, very large now, and just walking is already extremely tiring; after all, they had already been rocked to the point of falling apart on the boat.

Ayuduo is extremely satisfied with Huaxia; she is incredibly happy. This place is much better than the Jiuli. Although they are all strangers and it is a strange place, this beautiful place is enough to offset those unpleasant things.

Besides, the Residents here, upon seeing Changle, would immediately bow to him, being extremely respectful. This feeling is just like how the people of the Jiuli see their own father; that sense of awe comes from the inside out and cannot be faked.

Zhigui arrived late and bowed respectfully to Changle. After Changle helped him up, he introduced him to Zhigui: "This is my wife, Ayuduo, this is her brother Bingzhu, her sister Yangasha, and the Great Leader of the Jiuli, Qianxi."

Zhigui also bowed slightly and cupped his hands to the group, and Bingzhu and the others smiled and returned the gesture. They have already learned the etiquette of Huaxia; it makes no difference whether they use their own or Huaxia's, as long as it can be understood.

"He is Zhigui, the Minister of Rites of our Huaxia. I have roughly told you about our Huaxia; he is the most formidable person in that department."

The group appeared even more enthusiastic, because the person appearing before them was clearly not an ordinary person.

Zhigui stood at the side of the road, along with two subordinates; the Ministry of Rites, with its pitifully few hands, can only pull out these few people now, as the others are all busy.

"Prince, the King is already waiting. He wants you to go see him first; he needs to see you first. Then, your accommodations have all been arranged; the King has arranged for them to stay in your courtyard."

Changle asked in confusion: "Why arrange it at my place? Isn't there a guest courtyard?"

Zhigui whispered: "There are other people staying there temporarily, so this is the only way to arrange it for now."
