Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord-Chapter 2052: Thirsty and Exhausted

"You... You... Rebellious... Rebellious..." The guard’s reaction made Celestial Master Zhang very angry. Obviously, proving his identity at the city gates was now impossible. So he decided to think of another way and said, "Since when did Moli Country ban beggars from entering the city?"

The guard disdainfully covered his nose with one hand while arrogantly saying, "I am the rule here, if I say no, then it’s no. Move along, move along. Don’t block the way here. Don’t you know how stinky you are? You’re almost suffocating me to death."

Celestial Master Zhang was red-faced with anger: "You... You...!"

Just then, a luxury carriage was carried in from outside the gate. Celestial Master Zhang inadvertently looked up, and immediately shouted joyfully, "Madam Situ, Madam Situ."

The guard impatiently pushed him aside and said, "Get lost, get lost, don’t block the noble’s way."

Celestial Master Zhang was caught off guard by the guard’s push, he stumbled forward and took several quick steps before falling to the ground. His palms and knees were all bleeding, and the pain made his elderly face wrinkle.

Zi Xia, standing in front of the carriage, glanced at him indifferently, then entered the city gate expressionlessly.

After walking about ten meters, Zi Xia quietly opened the curtain of the carriage and whispered, "Young lady, the person at the city gate just now seemed to be Celestial Master Zhang."

Xuexue showed a slight smile and whispered back, "It’s him."

While they were whispering, Celestial Master Zhang’s woeful cries came from behind: "Madam Situ, Madam Situ, it’s me, I am Celestial Master Zhang."

Inside the carriage, Xuexue raised her voice and said coldly, "Does Moli Country have no rules now? Even cats and dogs dare to impersonate Imperial ministers."

Xuexue deliberately raised her voice, and the guards at the city gate heard clearly, becoming even more disgusted with Celestial Master Zhang. They constantly approached to drive him away: "You filthy beggar, hurry and leave. If you don’t go, we’ll take you to see an official. Rebellious, even daring to impersonate an Imperial Appointed Official?"

Celestial Master Zhang shouted hoarsely towards Xuexue’s carriage, "Madam Situ, I really am Celestial Master Zhang, I’m not impersonating."

However, the carriage did not stop, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared around the bend.

Celestial Master Zhang felt extremely desperate, suddenly collapsing to sit on the ground where several guards at the city gate mercilessly dragged him away from the entrance.

Celestial Master Zhang thought bitterly in his heart, how these guards look down on people like dogs. Once he gets back to the Celestial Master’s Mansion, he must immediately send someone to remove them from their posts. He was really furious.

Now, he was penniless and couldn’t enter the city. He had just eaten a roasted rabbit but was so thirsty his throat was burning. Yet he didn’t even have a wen money on him to buy a cup of cold water to quench his thirst. Celestial Master Zhang squatted not far from the city gate, unable to cry tears.

Night was already deep. Celestial Master Zhang watched helplessly as the city gate closed and, unable to prove his identity, could only squat outside for the night. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

The guards above the city gate occasionally pointed at him, but he didn’t know what they were saying.

Celestial Master Zhang was both thirsty and tired and already too exhausted to complain. To say he hadn’t slept for two days and a night was an understatement. He was too tired, so he slept outside the city gate for the night.

As dawn approached, he felt something wet on his face, and when he opened his eyes, he found it was raining. Although it was summer, he was soaked entirely through and still felt cold. Celestial Master Zhang curled up from the cold.

Finally, when the city gate opened, he tried to enter the city again only to be blocked again by yesterday’s guard...

"Hey, filthy beggar, can’t you understand human language? Didn’t I tell you many times? You can’t enter the city. How dare you come again? Get out quickly." The guard looked domineering, as if saying a beggar like you doesn’t deserve to enter the Capital.
