fallen from grace, a shell of what they were.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They are now martial arts sects instead of being the cultivator sects that they were ages ago.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lee He Song explained briefly the history of these two sects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Shi Shi added on and said, \"I know some of them who had left the sect and are now looking for opportunities.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast to those that wanted to explore the lands, there were also those that sought stability after wandering around the lands for some time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan Qi thought for a moment and said, \"Do ask them if they are interested.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Getting people with influence from two different sects might be good for him to balance them out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wouldn’t want a situation where his own security team got too powerful for his liking and went against him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having people with different backgrounds would help him to calibrate it nicely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Shi Shi nodded at him and said, \"I will contact them when you come back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lastly, he thought about getting more servant girls into the mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this time he would let Xue Cong, Yue Jie and Yue Xin manage them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not possible for him to do everything by himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone must put in their effort to get things going.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to stand up and leave, but he heard someone shouting at the wooden gates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master Lin!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan Qi glanced over at Lee He Song and Liu Shi Shi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stood up and Lee He Song approached the wooden gates, while Liu Shi Shi stood at the entrance of the main hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What happened yesterday was still fresh in their minds and everyone got anxious, not knowing whether it was a friend or a foe at the gates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who is that?\" Lee He Song shouted at whoever it was behind the wooden gates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We are sent by the Magistrate to update Master Lin on the case,\" the voice said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Creak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lee He Song opened the wooden gates and opened them slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the opening, he saw that there were a few constables standing outside with some boxes in their hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The head of the constables popped into his vision and said, \"Those are some gifts from the Magistrate to Master Lin, as an apology to him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lee He Song opened the gate and the constables entered the mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their heads were low, with their backs hunched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The attitude from them was docile and demure in comparison to how they behaved previously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the head of the constables saw Lin Xuan Qi in the main hall, he pulled out a piece of paper, which was rolled up, and approached the main hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stopped at the entrance and unrolled the piece of paper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reading from it, he said, \"I, the Magistrate for Hong Feng City, would like to extend my sincere apology for the incident yesterday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The culprits Su Chen and Wu Tong have been banished to the northern tower to face the harsh winter weather, never to return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And to extend my apology, do accept the gifts from me and the Su and Wu Clans to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan Qi nodded his head with every sentence that the head of the constables read.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It sounded like music to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, the pressure that was constantly giving him pressure was lifted off his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only thing that stood out for him was any mention of punishment for Zhu Di.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took note of it and could do nothing for now as the status between the cultivators and mortals like him was too great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only consolation that he had was that Sima Ye was also a cultivator on his side, and he was with the biggest sect in the Da Qian Dynasty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please let the Magistrate know that I’m grateful for him in being swift and decisive with the investigations and verdicts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood up and walked over to the head of the constables.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The head of the constables started to tremble when he saw Lin Xuan Qi do so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feelings of pressure from the oppressive aura began surfacing uncontrollably from the heart of the head of the constables.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I...\" To his relief, nothing happened and Lin Xuan Qi passed him a few copper coins instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan Qi took the piece of paper with the Magistrate’s words for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The head of the constables kept the copper coins, turned around and shouted at his men.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Move it and let Master Lin see the gifts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His men quickly carried the boxes they carried and placed them in front of Lin Xuan Qi and opened them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sun was already bright and when they opened the boxes, the reflection from what was inside hit onto Lin Xuan Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his hands to cover his eyes from the glare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he peeked through the openings between his fingers, he saw what was inside the boxes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were taels of gold and many pieces of jewelry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan Qi felt for the first time the feeling of being a young master, basking in wealth and indulgence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe this was how these clans and families got entangled deeper and deeper with each other, he thought to himself as he looked at the gifts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The head of the constables glanced at Lin Xuan Qi and asked, \"Where should we put these gifts?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan Qi didn’t have a place in mind and he said, \"Just leave them here, my men will take care of it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you say so.\" The head of the constables bowed and bid him farewell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They left and Lin Xuan Qi looked at the gifts in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could run the soap business even without Sima Long with these.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he wasn’t one to do such a thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other than the fact that he wasn’t one to break a promise, he knew that he needed the influence of the Sima Family to ensure that he would be safe from harassment going forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Su Chen and Wu Tong this time, but there would be someone named Su Yi, or Su Qi and Wu Hong next time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to take things slowly one step at a time.\u003C\u002Fp>",1050,"2026-06-03T13:58:56.970Z",1,"novelbin.me","a6f2a13244c744cc73c74120ae6dad58dd59098130231626a5cdba65a53bcce4","clan-prosperity-starting-with-my-servant-girls-chapter-142","clan-prosperity-starting-with-my-servant-girls-chapter-141",469,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fclan-prosperity-starting-with-my-servant-girls-cover.jpg"]
