Speaking of which, Wang Mang and Ge Shangyan were very curious about what the legendary prince with excellent appearance looked like. Was he really as good-looking as those people said?

Thinking of the adoptive mother they had met when they were young, Wang Mang and Ge Shangyan couldn't help imagining the possible image of Li Xiaoji in their minds. If they could inherit the beauty of their adoptive mother, they would be worthy of the name.

Hao is a commoner girl from the northwest area. During the famine, she fled to northern Xinjiang with the villagers in disguise. She was accidentally rescued by Li Xu, and they fell in love and formed a good relationship.

When Li Xu adopted Wang Mang and the others, Mrs. Hao had no objection and took care of the three of them more tenderly and considerately. However, according to the rules of the capital, Mrs. Hao had no choice but to leave Northern Xinjiang and live in the British Government Palace in the capital.

After this separation, Hao never returned to Northern Xinjiang because she found out that she was three months pregnant soon after arriving in the capital. Li Xu happened to be leading troops to fight and could not take care of her.

She could only survive the entire pregnancy under the care of the servants of the Duke's housekeeper. Shortly after giving birth to the original child, assassins attacked. Hao was injured while trying to save her son, and the root cause of the disease fell.

Her early death was related to this injury, which was a pain and regret in Li Xu's heart. However, in life, there are often unsatisfactory times, which makes people helpless.

The journey is long and has an end. On an ordinary morning, the British Duke and his entourage arrived at the entrance to Northern Xinjiang. When the soldiers guarding them saw it, they laughed loudly and spread the news.

The whole Northern Xinjiang was in a state of shock. Their general was back!

The British male was riding a horse, wearing a black armor and a red cloak. His eyebrows were sharp as always. The people lined up to welcome him and looked at the god in their hearts with worship and reverence.

When his eyes fell on the light, low-key and luxurious carriage, his enthusiasm was instantly reduced by half. Without asking, he knew that the person sitting in the car must be the pampered prince.

"Sneeze—" Li Xiaoji's nose itched, she sneezed, and rubbed it carelessly.

The group of people arrived at Yuancheng, the largest city in Northern Xinjiang. Zhu Ziyun and others, along with officials and generals from Yuancheng, had been waiting for a long time.

The moment they saw their adoptive father, Zhu Ziyun and the three of them had red eyes. The last time they separated, his adoptive father had an internal injury. Although the imperial doctor diagnosed his pulse and confirmed that he was healed, His Majesty only allowed him to come back.

But who knows if there are any hidden dangers left behind. After a long journey, it would be bad if the adoptive father's old injury relapses.

"Hahaha..." The three people's worries were quickly dispelled by the British prince's angry laughter and a thick slap. They all grinned in pain, and they seriously suspected that their shoulders had been smashed.

"Ji'er, I came here to meet my three brothers!" As soon as the British master finished speaking, he heard a crisp response from the carriage and opened the door curtain with one hand.

Then, a young man with a smile on his face and as bright as pear blossoms appeared in front of everyone. He was wearing a well-tailored dark blue robe that made his complexion even whiter.

The jasper belt around his waist and the jade hairpin on his head were simple and neat, but they made his face stand out more and more, and the beauty of his facial features was particularly obvious.

Wang Mang was stunned. This was really his adoptive father's son. Wasn't he carried by the wrong person?

This was the only reaction of the people present. It was not that the British public was ugly, but that Mrs. Li Xiaoji was so beautiful. Some people who were lucky enough to meet the Duke's wife, Mrs. Hao, could not help but have doubts.

Li Xiaoji's eyebrows and eyebrows are slightly similar to Hao's, but overall she looks more beautiful than Hao's. Standing next to the bearded British father-in-law, there is no similarity at all.

In the face of everyone's shocked and surprised gazes, Li Xiaoji stood on the ground, with a tall and upright posture. He was not as careless as everyone imagined.

In this regard, Li Xiaoji said, well, who can’t do it anymore?

Under the introduction of the British Duke, Li Xiaoji walked up to Wang Mang, clasped his fists in salute, and said, "I've seen Brother Wang Mang, and my brother is as brave and powerful as my father said!"

"Ah, really? Hehe, no more!" Wang Mang was praised by Li Xiaoji without hesitation. He was a little at a loss for a moment, touched his head, and laughed dryly.

Before Zhu Ziyun and Ge Shangyan could show their disdain for Wang Mang, they saw Li Xiaoji move and arrive in front of Zhu Ziyun, causing Zhu Ziyun to tighten his back unconsciously and not even dare to breathe loudly.

There was nothing I could do, in front of Li Xiaoji, who had delicate skin and tender flesh, it felt like even the slightest amount of force could injure him.

"I've met brother Ziyun. He lives up to his name and is as upright as jade as I imagined him to be!" Li Xiaoji said with a bright smile.

Zhu Ziyun was serious for a second and said with a smile: "Rewards, awards, I don't dare to be praised as a younger brother, I can only work hard in this direction."

Then, Li Xiaoji came in front of Ge Shangyan. Ge Shangyan held his breath and vowed that he would never be fooled by Li Xiaoji's face. Isn't it great that he is good-looking and has a sweet mouth?

"Hello, brother Shangyan. I often hear my father mention you. Your eyes are as clear and clear as the blue sky. I can tell you are a person of good conduct!"

Li Xiaoji looked at Ge Shangyan's face openly and praised him sincerely.

Ge Shangyan blushed and wanted to hold back his temper, but softened the moment he opened his mouth and said with a chuckle: "Really, thank you for your compliment, I'm very happy!"

"My younger brother is also happy. When he knew that my father had found me three good brothers in such a good place in Northern Xinjiang, my younger brother was yearning for them. It is a blessing to see them today!"

As soon as Li Xiaoji said this, all the officials waiting at the side puffed up their chests uncontrollably, hmph, Northern Xinjiang is of course good.

Zhu Ziyun and the other three had their backs straightened up. Of course they were good, otherwise, their adoptive father wouldn't be able to adopt them.

After successfully grasping everyone's emotions, Li Xiaoji took off the fan tied around his waist, opened it gracefully, looked around, and said: "It is said that there are three good things in Northern Xinjiang, good people, good scenery, and good customs."

"I'm here this time. I want to have a good experience. When I come to the capital in the future, I can promote it to my friends and let them know that there is a charming place called Beijiang in the country of Shan!"

After the smooth flattery, most of the people's wariness dissipated. When they looked at Li Xiaoji again, they couldn't help but have some changes. Who said that the prince is ignorant and incompetent?

Isn’t this a well-behaved young man who knows how to talk and be polite? Someone must be jealous of the general and deliberately spread rumors to ruin the reputation of the prince.

On the way here, the British Duke did some homework for Li Xiaoji, asking him to memorize the general situation in northern Xinjiang, especially the names of those who worked hard for the construction of northern Xinjiang.

For these people who sincerely serve the people, there is no need for high rewards. As long as you can remember their efforts and remember their names, it will be a very happy thing for them.

Seeing that the atmosphere was good, Li Xiaoji greeted everyone one by one. Everyone was more and more surprised that he could accurately call everyone's name and point out one or two things that this person had done.

Even though he had been taught it privately by the British public, but to be able to remember it so firmly and clearly, Li Xiaoji must have put his heart into it. If he is willing to put his heart into everything, he will definitely make people feel sincerity.

Everyone in Yuancheng felt Li Xiaoji's sincerity and completely changed their views on him. How could a young man who was so obedient and had such a good memory be any worse?

The previous turmoil over the fight for beauty with His Royal Highness Prince Chen was probably due to the youthful spirit. Once it is over, it will be over and I won't bother with it again.

The gazes of Zhu Ziyun and the others followed Li Xiaoji, and they had long forgotten their worries and worries at the beginning.

The British duke was filled with pride as he watched his son shuttle between officials of all sizes in the distant city with ease, with a perfect smile and a perfect posture.
