Bab 182: Chapter 173: The Unfairness of God the Thief_1

The procession moved very quickly, completing a ten-mile journey in less than half an hour.

Two vast crowds stopped still, still a hundred meters apart.

Zhao Dun stood with his hands behind his back, observing the entire procession with unfocused eyes.

Although they were told to come out and welcome them this time, there was no indication of what attitude should be held towards Kong Zheng's arrival in Youzhou.
