Chapter 1961 (1/2)
The 196th chapter “This is what you call hty!” (part 1)
Different from Du Wei’s expectation, his reception in Mulan is actually a rarely seen cold shoulder
Ignoring his status of a Duke and the fact that he is highly favored by the regent, Du Wei is still a member of an old noble household In the noble circle where tradition is highly valued, Du Wei is still considered to be one of their own, so his reception along the way has been great thus far
However, after his convoy arrived at the gates of Mulan City, not even a single person froovernor’s officer came to receive them
Such a thing greatly angered the leading officer frouards of the eistrates they ive Du Wei deferential treatuards So where in the world did they ever get a cold shoulder?
It wasn’t just the lack of reception froate even had the nerve to halt thee convoy with hundreds of soldiers from the army, it’s only to be expected that they can’t just Du Wei and his people in so easily
Just when the leading officer was about to lose it, Philip interjected and handed over a docue
“Do you not see the insignia on antly shouted
Instead of getting angry too, the garrison soldiers gave an unyielding look in return and coldly answered: “It’s precisely because you are the royal guards that we have to check! If you don’t have the docu your post without reason! If true, then you are to be treated as a deserter, humph!”
Unable to counter, the royal officer can only angrily wait for the city guard to verify the docuuy used his horse as an outlet for his anger and harshly whipped the poor animal on the back to make it head into the city
Watching such a scene the city guard coldly mocked: “Humph, the people from the south are all like this How can someone that harht?”
These words just so happen to befall on Du Wei’s ear when his carriage passed by Sighing, Du Wei was silent for a long time over this
The royal guards really are unusable
Maybe their equipment and treatment is one of the best, but an army built up by money is a bit too fluttery for Du Wei’s taste
Originally, he intended to use souards stay behind with him in the Northwest after they reach their destination However, after seeing the display just now, the idea was quickly shot down
Du Wei then turned around to Philip: “It appears this governor Bohan is not very friendly towards us”
Philip was also puzzled He hly valued by Du Wei, but when it ca man is still inexperienced
As for Du Wei, he is already in the clear as to why this is happening
If he didn’t coin with then Bohan would be the one in overall control against the Northwestern Army Noith his appearance, ould Bohan think? The central high command didn’t trust him and sent someone to take his power?!
You need to understand Bohanprovince on the surface, but after what happened to the two lords in Du Wei’s territory, the only one left to stabilize the chaotic situation is Bohan
As such, it would be odd for Bohan to be kind to him – the one that came to steal a piece of his pie
