The Song Family is no pushover either. Lord Qi didn't plan on confronting them head-on, so he invited someone to mediate and hosted Old Master Song for a drink. The Song Family had already coordinated their views internally. Old Master Song attended the gathering, signaling a willingness for reconciliation. Both sides took a step back, and Gao Yue's appointment as the Eighth-Rank County Magistrate of Qing'an County was quickly finalized.
Qing'an County is a well-known county in the northern region, famous for producing tribute fragrance pears, abundant in both mountains and water, and quite prosperous. If one performs well, they could earn an excellent evaluation each year, and just by the tribute pears, they could connect with a number of influential people.
