章節 1016: Province

The prefectural magistrate went out of his way to show hospitality, ordering a lavish spread of food and inviting several junior officials and prominent figures from the local government office to warmly welcome them.

Although Shao Yunduan held the rank of a seventh-grade official, his potential for a promising future was evident. Being a capital official, he naturally commanded more respect than local officials.

Furthermore, as the province's Primus, he brought pride to the magistrate, who was more than willing to extend him courtesies.

The magistrate had initially intended for his wife to entertain Qiao Xuan, but Shao Yunduan graciously declined, informing him that Qiao Xuan would be visiting First Madame instead. Therefore, the plan was abandoned.

Word had spread throughout the province about Shao Yunduan's ascent to the position of Primus.

First Madame, Yuezheng Xiao, and Xie Jingrong were all filled with joy for his achievements.
