In an instant, the entire official road fell silent.
The farmers carrying loads and the merchants driving ox carts all froze in place.
Who knows who was the first to kneel with a "thud"!
Soon after, like toppling dominoes, the commoners along the road all knelt down in unison.
Someone's vegetable basket fell to the ground, and fresh fruits rolled everywhere.
A child was about to cry when parents covered their mouth tightly.
"C-Crown Prince?"
"Is this real..."
Murmurs of disbelief spread through the crowd.
These commoners who toil under the sun, when had they ever imagined.
In their lifetime, to have the fortune of seeing the Crown Prince, such an exalted noble?
In the thousand years since the establishment of the Wenjing Dynasty, there had never been a precedent of a Crown Prince leaving the imperial city.
Let alone traveling thousands of miles to this Southern Border outpost.
"Are you the Governor of Jinming State?"
A cold voice suddenly broke the silence.
