The Sun Clan Main Mansion was in the nobility area, which was the few houses spared from Zhao Lingxin's sequester. In the current Sun Clan chief Sun Yuan, Sun Wanping's father is sitting and pouring tea for his son.

"You can come home today. There must be a big deal." Sun Wanping often resides in a place of worship. Today the other party came home to talk to himself, something strange in ten years. Sun Yuan, like an old fox, definitely thought that his son had an appeal to himself.
"Father, do not speak such a distant person. The child has always been grateful to his father. I want to come and serve, Inquiring about what your health is like," Sun Wanping said in a soft tone.
"You don't have to be conscientious to waste time. Have something to say." Sun Yuan quickly cut off Sun Wanping's words.
"Sun Yuan, the head of the Sun Clan As the Minister of the Empire, you must obey my orders."
When the other party said not to embrace, Sun Wanping was not afraid. Raising his status to suppress his father Minister's position, even Sun Yuan had to bow and talk politely if it were before. But if the other person is his child, the story is inverted.
Sun Yuan was furious, and this unloving child dared to take his position to abuse his father.
"An ungrateful child dares to persecute his father. I will teach you today," Sun Yuan said with an angry expression. Searching for objects around him, trying to pick up anything to teach this poor son.
"Father, calm down first. This time I have a government mission to come and discuss with you," Sun Wanping said in a severe tone.
Sun Yuan, who had heard Sun Wanping's voice, realized that the other party had important things to discuss with him. Therefore laid out the posture and then said
"You have something to say. As your father, I'll help you. "

Since the Emperor spoke, Sun Yuan was able to give his support. When embarking on the same boat, he would do his best to help with the Emperor's orders.
"Father, our family's spirit stone is not enough; the emperor wants a lot," said Sun Wanping.
Sun Yuan, who had heard this, slightly frowned. However, he didn't know why the Emperor wanted so many spirit stones. But he pondered a little before saying.
"Since our family does not have spirit stones enough, We will continue to seek support from the rest of the Imperial family. I can call a meeting with those people if you have a plan or not," Sun Yuan said.
What Sun Wanping wanted was his father's broad connection. When they come together, they plan to deal with it successfully. Zhao LingXin explains agreements with merchants to him.
This was the Emperor's test of whether Sun Wanping deserves to be the next Minister. If baking is done, Sun Wanping served as a minister following the failure Zhao Lingxin will be relocated to other positions Sun Wanping.
"Father, don't worry, I already have a plan to support it," replied Sun Wanping.
"You have to be careful, these merchants are very cunning, and they can't easily talk," Sun Yuan said, concerned.
"Father, can you proceed in a hurry?" Sun Wanping hurriedly.
"Don't worry, I will send them an appointment letter inviting them to come over and have some tea," Sun Yuan assured.
