The one they call "Son of Heaven" Gu Xiao lacked all grace.
He was not even in the mood to ride in his Golden Palanquin and left the house alone, without bringing along maids or servants. Only his Uncle Quan flitted in a blur, vanishing into thin air, secretly following behind him.
Unlike the Heaven, Earth, and Human rankings posted inside the grand taverns of the Prefectural City, County City had a special wall in front of the martial administration office for posting the latest Heaven, Earth, and Human rankings.
Therefore, although the grand taverns of County City also displayed the Heaven, Earth, and Human rankings, those who wanted to know the latest rankings as quickly as possible still had to come outside the martial administration office to see the lists on this wall.
Without stopping, Gu Xiao made a beeline for this place, casually pushing through the crowd to reach the very front.
This action greatly displeased the onlookers.
