Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

Besides Xufu Town, there are other clothing towns around Jiangzhou City.

And among those other clothing towns,

especially within the families that have had collaborative relations with Zhou Xingcai and others, a voice of terror suddenly spread far.

"What, my Cloud Mountain Sect has fallen?!"

...

In Xufu Town.

Yuchi had a relaxed time these ten days.

Doing whatever he pleased, he would wander around Xufu Town with little Ximo regardless of whether he had any affairs or not.

He chatted with some homeless, unfortunate women, making them laugh heartily.

As always, he considered himself as making an effort for the peace of the whole world.

Thinking about it, these are the actions that a truly good person would undertake.

So, during this period, he would bring Ximo to crowded places, just to loaf around.

He seemingly didn't care about other families at all.

And this scene was naturally noticed by people from other families, who harbored resentment in their hearts.

Yuchi surely didn't intend to help at all!

So even if he promised to provide an answer within ten days, they couldn't believe it at all.

He really is an unreliable person.

But it doesn't matter, they waited with their eyes reddened for the ten days to end.

...

Zhangsun Family.

Changsun Hao had already forbidden Changsun Mei from seeking out Yuchi.

Even though Changsun Mei wanted to find Yuchi for tea after hearing he had returned, she was directly refused.

Jokingly, his precious granddaughter was seen as merely a tool.

With such efforts in raising her, countless tutors had come to their home, investing so much gold and silver in Changsun Mei.

In the future, they had to recoup this investment.

Considering Yuchi's chamber of commerce might experience a significant downfall, could Changsun Mei be used as a card?

When our Zhangsun Family launches a chamber of commerce in the future, we could play the card of Changsun Mei.

See if it could lead to alliances or marriages with some noble families.

"There's no reason why Yuchi can achieve things that I, Changsun Hao, cannot, right?"

"Such things definitely won't happen."

Changsun Hao thought this way, which led to Changsun Mei being shut in the family manor, simmering with anger.

...

Simultaneously,

In one of the deep courtyards of the Zhangsun Family, the wooden door was tightly closed.

"Miss, don't be so angry, the master surely has his reasons."

A maid, who had a very good relationship with Changsun Mei, was now helping to take down the hairpins from Changsun Mei's hair.

She, having grown up with her since childhood, knew well that Changsun Mei was very angry now.

To know how many times she had gone through the grooming and dressing, waiting to leave, only to be directly refused from leaving the Zhangsun Family.

"I'm not angry because grandfather has his own ideas; when have I ever refused him having ideas?"

"But having ideas doesn't mean he doesn't have to listen to other people's opinions, does it? Oh, how stubborn he's become with age."

"He's like a child."

"Does he think I can't see through it? Does he think I can't see his unwillingness to admit defeat to Yuchi?"

"After so many years of life, how could I not see it?"

"And I have repeatedly spoken kindly about Yuchi in his ear, just to keep him from being so stubborn."

"Sometimes we need help from others, and this is one of those times."

After saying this, Changsun Mei's phoenix eyes were lowered, and she gazed at her own face in the bronze mirror, sighing deeply.

After hearing this, the maid's tasks paused for a while, and she attempted to say,

"Miss, I think the master did the right thing."

"You?" Changsun Mei instantly looked displeased while watching the maid through the bronze mirror.

The maid quickly smiled and said hurriedly,

"Miss, hear my viewpoint."

"Otherwise, if you don't listen to my perspective and stubbornly stick to your own, aren't you just like the master you mentioned?"

Changsun Mei was momentarily speechless.

This maid, having been by her side for so many years, has indeed become much smarter.

Helplessly, she could only say, "Alright, go ahead and tell me, I'd like to see what you think."

The maid was delighted at this.

She pulled a chair close and sat beside Changsun Mei.

Pressing Changsun Mei's delicate arms with both hands, she said,

"We must look at this matter from several aspects, let's discuss it piece by piece, alright?"

"Go ahead, I will seriously listen to you."

Changsun Mei's tone softened, as she wanted to see what insights her maid had.

"Alright, then I'll clumsily say a few words."

...

In the boudoir, the maid began to speak slowly.

"Firstly,"

"This matter can't be resolved by Young Master Yuchi."

"Unlike other matters, this issue couldn't be interfered with even by Young Master Yuchi, could it?"

The maid asked.

Her meaning was very straightforward.

From Changsun Mei's words, she learned that the ultimate mastermind behind this incident was Jiangzhou City's Zhou Family.

And behind the Zhou Family was the Cloud Mountain Sect.

So, since the Cloud Mountain Sect was intervening, solving this matter relying solely on Yuchi of Xufu Town was absolutely impossible.

Changsun Mei was surprised: "That's all?"

The maid: "..."

Her eyes lowered, and her long eyelashes slightly trembled.
