His Majesty’s Hostage - Volume 2 Chapter 12

As mentioned before, ChangKun Temple was not far from the Capital, but since ZiLi had run away in haste, he had not made any proper follow-up preparations at all. Therefore, he had walked all night for a journey that would only take an hour or two on horseback. By the time he finally saw the city gates, the sky was already completely bright. ZiLi rubbed his sore legs and feet, straightened the bundle with his belongings on his shoulder, and headed for the city gates not far away, which were crowded with pedestrians, and he was immediately followed blindly by the two brats, as if they were afraid that the other person would secretly slip away if they were not paying attention!

Each with their own worries, the three of them finally arrived at the city gate. The soldiers guarding the checkpoint blocked the way with their spears and gestured for them to show their passes. ZiLi, who had expected this in advance, flashed the bronze token he had extorted last night from that Lord, who had stupidly done him a favor. After they had finished inspecting, the soldiers put away their spears and let him pass.

“Wait, what about you two? You are not allowed to enter the city without a pass.” ZiLi was allowed to enter the city, but the two dirty little beggars behind him were not allowed through.

When the two brothers heard this, how could they be willing to obediently stay here and let ZiLi leave alone? They immediately grabbed ZiLi’s sleeves and looked at him with a pitiful expression, their dirty fingers leaving a few dark mud stains on ZiLi’s crescent white robe 2 .

“What are you afraid of? Don’t tell me you’re still standing at the door because you’re afraid This Highness will run away?” ZiLi said deliberately with a displeased tone.

He slipped into the restaurant, quickly contacted the waiter from that day 4 , paid him the other half of the money as he had promised, and then went to the room reserved for him. The things he had asked for had already been placed on the table, and ZiLi opened the package to inspect everything one by one.

Author Notes

As I was writing, I realized that the title of this volume was not very appropriate, so I changed it to a more fitting one, namely: ‘Wandering Through the Jianghu’.
