After saying a few words casually, Gu Xuan immediately proceeded to enter the city.
But just at that moment—
The attendant responsible for receiving him blocked Gu Xuan immediately, smiling as he said, "No need to hurry, Sir Gu. The Ping City Gate is currently under repair. I kindly ask Sir Gu to move with me to enter through the Xia Sect Gate."
"The Emperor has long arranged for people to await you there... The people inside Luoyang also await Sir Gu."
His face was always adorned with a smile.
But at that instant, Gu Xuan's expression somewhat froze.
—The Xia Sect Gate!
This is the gate used exclusively for state mourning processions, rarely utilized.
Yet now it was used to welcome him!
The common people perhaps couldn't see the underlying implications, but how could he not realize this was an intentional insult?
He almost immediately wanted to get angry.
For Gu Xuan,
he himself wasn't what mattered.
But this time coming here, he represented the Gu Clan.
