C223 The Plan of the Family
Zhang, Zhao, and Han family were the three families with the best relationship with Dung Cheng. They had a few hundred years of history in Tiannan Province, and they were very powerful.
These three families were all super families. When Dung Cheng was appointed as Prefect, he had received a lot of favors from Dung Cheng.
Now that something had happened, Dung Cheng naturally wanted to get this favor back. As long as he could continue to serve as the Prefect in Tiannan Province, there would be more benefits in the future.
Dung Cheng asked the butler to inform the patriarchs of the three families to rush to Prefect's Prefecture to discuss this matter. He couldn't afford to make any mistakes.
After the butler left, Dung Cheng's eyes revealed a hint of complacency and cunningness. Although he knew that it was the Third Prince, Hsiang Yunjie, who was going to be appointed as the new Prefect, he still couldn't easily abandon him.
After so many years of accumulation, what should he do in the future if he gave up just like that?
Furthermore, Dung Cheng knew Hsiang Yunjie's strength amongst the princes. He still wouldn't put such a lowly prince in his eyes.
Back then, Hsiang Yunyang had intended to rope him in, but he was rejected by Dung Cheng. After all, how could the position of Prefect in Tiannan Province be casually chosen?
After the news was spread out by the butler, the patriarchs of the three families rushed over and started discussing with Dung Cheng.
The two patriarchs of the Zhao Family of Zhang family were silent. They had heard some rumors about this matter. The master of Tiannan Province was going to be Chu King's son.
Although they knew that Hsiang Yunjie was weak, Hsiang Yunjie had brought Grace Marquis's title to this place, which was completely different from the status of a prince.
Although they didn't know how Chu King calculated this matter, they still didn't dare to provoke a prince with a title.
Under such a major event, every family would sweep away the snow in front of their doors. Under such circumstances, the Zhang family and Zhao Family wouldn't lose anything even if they didn't make a move.
"You two, how many years has it been since I helped you to eliminate the hidden dangers in Tiannan Province? Have you forgotten about it?"
Dung Cheng looked at the Zhang family Master and the Zhao Family Master with a smile that wasn't a smile, causing the two family masters to lower their heads in shame.
Although they were indebted to ___, they really didn't want to joke around with their own family. After all, it had been a hundred years since they were born. If they suffered any losses because of this incident, they would be powerless to reverse the situation.
"Prefect, you don't have to say anything. I already knew about this news before this. Furthermore, our Han family has already found a way to deal with this matter. We don't want to talk about this matter, but since Prefect is in a hurry, I'll tell him about it!"
In the face of Dung Cheng's heart, the Han family didn't shut their mouths like the other two families. Instead, they stood out righteously.
"Everyone knows that Han Jue of the younger generation of the Han family has already entered the Misty Sect and become an inner circle disciple. With such an identity, he is an important official even in the court!"
Patriarch Han stroked his beard, seeming very proud. In the Han family, a young son of the Han family was successfully recruited by the Misty Sect, and he was now an inner circle disciple.
The Misty Sect was the number one sect under the Chu Country. Han Jue of the Han family was able to become an inner circle disciple of the Han family, and the Han family was able to become one of its inner circle disciples. The Han family also had a bright future ahead of them, and their family had become even more prosperous.
"A few days ago, my Han Jue came back with a message. The Misty Sect asked him to come back and settle this matter. My Han Jue is at the fifth level of the Earth Profound Stage, so it should be easy for him to deal with this matter, right?"
Patriarch Han was very proud of himself. If this matter was resolved, it wouldn't be because he owed Dung Cheng a favor, but because Dung Cheng owed the Han family!
After that, in the Tiannan Province, no matter which family it was, they would be a head shorter than the Han family.
"If that's the case, it will be very easy to settle this matter. You still need to spend more effort on this matter. After this matter is settled, we can talk about anything!"
Dung Cheng felt even more relieved. If this matter could be resolved, he wouldn't have to worry about anything anymore.
In his heart, there was a huge gap between a prince who was not welcomed by the public and an inner circle disciple of Misty Sect.
After that, Dung Cheng looked at the Zhang and Zhao families and snorted coldly. However, since the matter had already been resolved, he didn't want to say anything more. He just followed the order...
At this moment, Hsiang Yunjie had finished his inspection in Muguang City. Although he had already become Prefect, other than the Ye family, the other families were still rejecting him.
Hsiang Yunjie didn't have much confidence in himself. He only went to Prefect Prefecture after Ye Tian gave him some guidance. He was ready to settle the handover.
"If there is really an accident, don't panic. I will stay by your side and try my best to ensure that you won't have much trouble."0
Ye Tian looked at Hsiang Yunjie, who was clenching his fists tightly, and started to talk to him once again, indicating that he shouldn't be so nervous.
What would happen next would be very intense, but Ye Tian knew that he was involved in this matter, so he could not just sit there and do nothing.
Under Ye Tian's guidance, Hsiang Yunjie gradually relaxed. While the two of them were chatting, they arrived at Prefect Prefecture.
"Halt. This is an important place in the province. You are not allowed to see or enter!"
When the soldiers guarding the door saw Ye Tian and Hsiang Yunjie coming, they immediately stopped them.
They all knew Ye Tian, the young master of Ye family who had risen up in the Muguang City, but this was Prefect's Prefecture after all, so they naturally couldn't afford to be careless.
Ye Tian gestured for Hsiang Yunjie to take out the appointment document. The soldiers didn't dare to be careless, and quickly brought the document inside to ask for instructions.
Before Ye Tian could feel how much time had passed, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps coming from inside the Prefecture. After that, Dung Cheng flew to Hsiang Yunjie's side with a respectful expression on his face.
"This official, Dung Cheng, greets the marquis!"
Dung Cheng's attitude was very polite, causing Hsiang Yunjie to be slightly stunned. After all, this was the first time he had been greeted by Prefect.
Compared to his previous status, even if he met with the marquis of that place, the other party would still be considered to have received a great deal of treatment.
"General Dong, there is no need to be overly courteous. When I heard about your achievements from my father, I am deeply impressed. Today, I have come to settle the handover procedures!"
Hsiang Yunjie was very polite. After he helped Dung Cheng up, who had bent down, he quickly revealed his purpose.
"Master Hou, don't worry about this matter. Let's go in and have a drink first. This official prepared a banquet for Master Hou. He specifically wants to have a drink with Master Hou!"
After Hsiang Yunjie finished speaking, Dung Cheng changed the topic, making it impossible for Hsiang Yunjie to continue what he wanted.
Ye Tian could see that Dung Cheng did not want to care about this matter at all. No matter what banquet he said, it was just an excuse.
However, since the matter had already come to this point, neither Ye Tian nor Hsiang Yunjie could shirk the responsibility. They could only agree to Dung Cheng's request and settle the matter of the banquet before talking about the handover.
Ye Tian followed Hsiang Yunjie into Prefect Prefecture. Dung Cheng immediately saw the clues and stood in front of Ye Tian.
"Young Master Ye, this is a banquet that I will personally host for Master Hou. You don't have to follow me in!"
"Furthermore, this is Prefect Prefecture. Not everyone can enter!"
Dung Cheng naturally wouldn't allow Ye Tian to participate in this matter. He knew Ye Tian's capability. With this young master by Hsiang Yunjie's side, it would be like adding wings to a tiger!
"Mr. Ye is an important person by my side. He must be by my side. If the general doesn't like it, we will start the handover immediately!"
