Capítulo 248: Chapter 160: Each with Different Intentions_3

Smoke and dust filled the air, with banners covering the sky.

An endless army stretched out in sight, like a long dragon, unstoppable as it rushed towards Changsha Prefecture.

Chu Wei rode a red horse and quickly met the army's commander, Shangguan Ming, after announcing his identity.

"I greet my uncle."

After the meeting, Chu Wei, the envoy of Chu, respectfully saluted Shangguan Ming as his nephew.

Six biggest families of Linhai County had been intermarrying for generations, sharing kinship among them all.

For example, Chu Wei's great-aunt married into the Shen Clan of Changzhou, and her daughter then married into Shangguan Clan of Jintan, with Shangguan Ming being her husband's sibling.

Such relationships could be found in numerous aristocratic families.

Even in his Chu family, many daughters of the Shangguan family or other females with blood ties to the Shangguan family married in.

Generations of intermarriage resulted in all six families being related by blood.
