About a stick of incense time later, a few people emerged from the white tent.
Tan Langzhong's gaze was sharp as a torch, and he immediately saw a familiar face he hadn't seen in a long time, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Isn't that Lu County Magistrate?"
The Lu County Magistrate that Tan Langzhong referred to was Lu Cong. Lu Cong had distinguished himself as an Advanced Scholar at a young age, and later, during his studies with the Six Ministries, he was in the Ministry of Revenue. Back then, Tan Langzhong was merely a small Chief Clerk and had formed a friendship with Lu Cong, which was considered a connection.
Later, Lu Cong's official career thrived, and he was promoted swiftly, becoming a County Magistrate before the age of thirty. Meanwhile, Tan Langzhong climbed onto the big tree that was Prime Minister Wang, got promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and maintained correspondence with Lu Cong.
