When Chief Historian Chen was mentioned, County Magistrate Cai finally put down the teacup in his hand.
The Commandery Princess is just a young woman, easy to deceive. But Chen Zhuo has served as the Prince Mansion Chief Historian for thirty years, holding significant weight in the Nanyang County officialdom. After Prince Nanyang's death this year, it was Chief Historian Chen who was in charge of managing the affairs at the mansion.
The steward eagerly watched his master, waiting for a while before finally hearing a sentence: "Prepare the pen and ink. I will personally write a letter to Chief Historian Chen to explain a thing or two."
Steward: "..."
Is that all?
No need to prepare generous gifts?
That's too presumptuous!
The steward wanted to persuade further, but County Magistrate Cai impatiently waved his hand: "You may retreat first! I've been busy all day, and it's rare to have the leisure to enjoy some tea. I'll go to the study later."
The steward was also disheartened.
