"Family Head, the Xu Family of Wan Shan Prefecture is located near Changli Prefecture,"
"If the Xu Family is willing..."
"then wouldn’t the troubles with the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family be easily solved?"
Fang Chaowu spoke in a low voice.
The others who heard this showed puzzled expressions on their faces.
Sitting silently beside Luo Ping, Lu Family Patriarch Lu Jun heard these words.
In his eyes, a hint of contemplation flickered.
However, it only lasted for a moment.
The contemplative look in his eyes soon turned into realization.
And the Luo Ping, sitting quietly in the main seat,
frowned slightly upon hearing this.
The Xu Family of Wan Shan Prefecture,
indeed was located near Changli Prefecture.
Moreover, the overall strength of the Xu Family of Wan Shan Prefecture was not weak.
If the Xu Family was willing to make a move...
then the issue with the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family would naturally be resolved with ease.
Just one issue remained.
Why would the Xu Family of Wan Shan Prefecture bother to strike against the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family?
Currently, the Xu Family stands apart from the core competition of the Da Feng Dynasty.
They stay secluded, playing the local emperor within Wan Shan Prefecture.
Living leisurely, isn’t that enjoyable?
Why involve themselves in the core strife within the Da Feng Dynasty?
Clearly, there is no need.
Fang Chaowu seemed to sense the doubts in Luo Ping’s heart.
Therefore, he spoke again.
"There’s something, Family Head, that you might not be aware of."
"Not long ago, the third son of the Xu Family Patriarch of Wan Shan Prefecture, who is also the most beloved by the Patriarch, Xu Guangmao."
"met an unexpected demise in the territory of the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family."
"Actually, it’s not so much that it was an accident than it was the Ke Family of Xunyang Prefecture who made a move."
"But since there’s no evidence,"
"the incident just concluded without consequences..."
"If at this time we give the Xu Family of Wan Shan Prefecture a little push, I believe that the Xu Family Patriarch would surely be willing to launch an attack against the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family..."
echoed slowly throughout the room.
The others in the room, upon hearing this explanation,
couldn’t help revealing an expression of sudden realization on their faces.
And Luo Ping, the Luo Family Patriarch sitting in the main seat,
also nodded silently upon hearing these words.
If this was indeed the case,
then it seemed not entirely impossible.
Previously, because the Patriarch of the Xu Family had no evidence and the opposition from the various elders of the Xu Family,
this prevented the Xu Family Patriarch from easily making a move against the Ke Family of Xunyang Prefecture.
If at this time, the Luo Family gave the Xu Family of Wan Shan Prefecture a push from behind,
providing a reason to act against the Ke Family of Xunyang Prefecture,
even if this reason seemed somewhat fabricated,
the Patriarch of the Xu Family would still be willing to take action against the Ke Family of Xunyang Prefecture.
This plan is an overt scheme. Enjoy new adventures from empire
Even if the Patriarch of the Xu Family knew
that this was instigated by the Luo Family,
would likely be grateful to the Luo Family.
"Since this is the case..."
"then let’s proceed with this plan."
Inside the room, Luo Ping, who sat calmly in the main seat, spoke in a low voice.
The others in the room, upon hearing this,
Afterward, they slightly bowed their heads,
attending to the documents in front of them that were yet to be handled.
In the blink of an eye, several days passed.
With the Luo Family secretly inciting the situation,
the conflict between the Xu Family of Wan Shan Prefecture and the Ke Family of Xunyang Prefecture
was intensifying at a rapid pace.
Wan Shan Prefecture, Xu Family estate.
Within the room where the Xu Family Patriarch was,
Xu Yicun, the current Patriarch of the Xu Family, sat still in the main seat.
His head was slightly lowered.
His complexion seemed rather poor.
Suddenly, a mysterious man dressed in black appeared in the room.
The man dressed in black bowed slightly,
his face full of respect.
"Have you investigated clearly?"
"Who is it? Who exactly was it?"
As Xu Yicun sensed someone entering the room,
he quietly lifted his head,
looking towards the person in front of him.
His complexion was still not very good,
and his eyes were filled with uncontrollable anger.
"Patriarch, it has been investigated clearly."
"It was the second son of the Ke Family Patriarch of Xunyang Prefecture."
"It seems that a conflict arose over an Oiran in one of the brothels in Xunyang Prefecture."
While speaking, the man in black stopped and did not continue.
"The second son of the Ke Family Patriarch?"
Hearing these words, Xu Yicun’s face darkened even more with cold fury.
It was indeed so, indeed!
What he had anticipated was correct.
The demise of Guangmao was the doing of the Ke Family of Xunyang Prefecture.
An accidental demise???
At this, Xu Yicun almost wanted to laugh outright.
"What is the response from the Great Elder, the Second Elder, and the Third Elder to this matter?" he asked after a moment.
After pondering for a short while, the man in black replied softly, "Patriarch, the Great Elder, the Second Elder, and the Third Elder all disagree with you making a move against the Ke Family. The Ke Family now possesses the power of two prefectures and has seen a great increase in overall strength.
The elders said that making a move against the Ke Family will bring no benefits to our Xu Family of Wan Shan Prefecture..."
With this statement from the man in black,
