Chapter 251 - Duoduo, Are You Thirsty? (2/2)

Moreover, did the State Teacher really not conceal any personal secret?

However, just as quick as it came, the old monarch waved that resentment away, if there’s no State Teacher, there wouldn’t be a Nanyun Kingdom which was so prosperous and strong like now, how can he doubt State Teacher’s loyalty?

When Qi Hengqing saw that composed look as still as a mountain on the king’s face, he gave a sneer in his heart.

He firmly believed that there’s no indestructible relationship between a monarch and his subject, especially with this one minister who can cover the sky with just a sweep of his hand, endangering the monarch of his position.

Right now, the Lord State Teacher really was bringing his little disciple to parade around the streets.

Tomorrow was the day to offer sacrifice to the Heaven and pray for good fortune, today was parading around the street, sure enough the State Teacher was really willful.

State Teacher was still riding on that pretentious white gauzed palanquin lifted by eight people, Nan Xun imitated the others and trying to catch up with the parade. Walking and walking, she quickly caught up until she was near the palanquin.

Nan Xun only knew now that State Teacher big boss wasn’t parading the street for no apparent reason.

There were two reasons for him to parade on the street, one was when he received a new disciple, the first time Nan Xun saw big boss three years ago was also because he just received Gong Shiba.

The second was the king’s order. Several months ago, the old monarch’s chronic condition wouldn’t become better, it’s hard for common people to not be agitated, but once State Teacher came out, no matter even if he was just strolling through the street, he can appease those people’s heart in a flash.

Nan Xun stood inside the group, following her senior brothers to act like a pretentious prick, experiencing the feeling of being revered by people from both sides of the street, feeling like she’s really becoming an immortal.

Nan Xun slightly tilted her head, blocking her lips with her hand, she mewed softly to big boss, “My Lord, are you thirsty?”

That voice was so soft that it was almost like she’s just moving her lips silently, but Nan Xun felt that big boss would still hear it clearly.

Indeed, Gong Moran heard it from inside the palanquin.

He was originally sitting still, but when he heard what she said, his closed eyes opened slightly as he faintly casted a sidelong glance towards her, asking, “Duoduo, are you thirsty?”

With one instruction from Lord State Teacher, the whole parade slowly stopped.

The crowd of people thought that State Teacher was about to instruct some kind of big, important matter, but they didn’t expect that he only wanted to ask whether his little disciple thirsty or not, their expressions immediately became colorful ah.

Gong Moran’s disciples were still faring well, because they had already seen how the Lord had been protecting the little girl’s various kinds of shortcomings in Moran Hall, so they still can keep their calm in the face of unexpected event like this, but those imperial bodyguards from outside simply didn’t dare to believe what they heard, did State Teacher ever asked something like this when they were parading before?

Nan Xun awkwardly coughed a bit, she thought that big boss’s reply would be as soft as her question, who knew that he not only not lowers his voice, instead exposing her small secret out.

That’s right ah, parading like this was quite impressive, nevertheless, with such a long time walking without a sip of water in the middle really made her so thirsty.

They have been parading for the whole afternoon, before leaving, Nan Xun this rice bucket ate so much pastries and right now her mouth was so dry that it felt like there’s no saliva left to wet her parched throat.

Suddenly, the sound of tea pouring was heard from inside the palanquin, it was like the sound of nature in the ears of those people who had been wandering on the street from morning to afternoon.

A light tea fragrance floated in the air from inside the palanquin.

A corner of the palanquin’s curtain was opened by a slender hand, and a cup of freshly poured tea was handed over to where Nan Xun was standing.
